As you noticed right away the supers suspension is choosing to be very firm as youd expect that makes it a lot of fun to drive on open roads with lots of. But not really suitable for Long Distance comfort but then this isnt meant for that its more of a fun below and for that its just right. And where could you have more fun a race track on to the. Really structure its. Not a professional race driver so you cant really test the limits of the soup but he says the car is very good even if you drive too fast its a one star. Of course you can provoke it to do that with its rear wheel drive. The race track and then on the occasion it has no place on public roads. With 250 kilometers of power supply accelerates from 0 to 100 kilometers an hour in just 4. 3 seconds of. Driving on the race track is a lot of fun but most who provides wont be spending a lot of time driving in a place like this so lets head back out to the highway. And active rio differential ensures optimum drive distribution. Points out there is currently only one engine for the supra the 3 straight 6 which is also found in the top version of b. M. W. System model. B. M. W. Is also offering smaller ranges and so they might find their way into the supra eventually 2 and pushed out the starting price. Not Everyone Needs 340 horsepower or 250. Currently prices for the super cool place start at just under 63000 euros in germany incidentally the b. M. W. Z n 4 is available exclusively as a convertible roadster. The supra with its extremely sleek sit away. The aggressively designed headlamps and large air intakes in the front are a definite head turner and clear statement to any rivals this car is all about power. The 19 inch alloy wheels frame the brake system. The tail lights in the ria also have a flash sleek design. The mixture of curved lines and sharp edges makes the look of the supra unique the bubble roof offers more headroom while cutting Wind Resistance and the charge is excessive all from the passenger compartment in the interior you can clearly see the b. M. W. Touch. It. Thats especially true for the gear shift currently the super is available exclusively with an 8 speed automatic transmission. I listen i want to show the mantle says both the price and the technical days of the b. M. W. Said 4. 00 of the tire to supra differ only marginally i fear so in the end the choice comes down to at which design you prefer a mother you want a copay or a.

Treatment making it the primes 1st plug in hybrid the super has also undergone some visual changes and its now fitted with full every dimensions headlamps and full every detail rise as standard skoda says this is to ensure greater comfort and even more safety. But the most important innovation is the plug in hybrid drive concept. In your home your audience going to see maya says what we have here is a one point fully to t. S. I. Internal Combustion Engine and its combined with each ride which has over 70 kilowatts of power and has a few electric range of 55 kilometers. To the other they deliver an outstanding driving experience. Im jus can drive on specially electric power all combine all good surely with the internal Combustion Engine and the good thing is all together we have a total range of 850 kilometers you can get by perfectly calm for people who drive on last but its the truth if you follow this perfect angle that. Production of both vehicles is due to begin this summer skoda is also helping to shape the future of immobility by developing its own electric charging stations as well as sustainable recycling concepts further electric models are also in planning by the end of 2022 skoda plans to launch 13 you of which tend to be partially or fully electrified. Skoda already offered a 1st glimpse of what these future electric vehicles could look like at the Geneva Motor Show this spring there it showed off its vision i. V. Study and chances are we could see a production vehicle very much like it but as early as next year because skoda said the study was already very close to the final design of the production movie. B m ws 3rd generation one series will be headed for a showroom soon at 1st the compact model will only be available with front wheel drive but that means passengers will have a lot more interior space even though the car has almost the same dimensions as the previous model 3 diesel into gasoline engines are available ranging from 95 to 225 kilowatts the world wide market launch is set for september. To celebrate its 100th anniversary since one has unveiled its concept car 1919 the all electric vehicle is inspired by a v. A. Ssion active intelligence suspension is meant to give passengers the feeling of sitting in a living room on wheels it can drive itself on the freeway or in stop and go traffic the range is staggering 800 kilometers and 600 kilometers can be added in just 20 minutes of recharging. These im up to this contest of my whole dozen office says this must saves benzs pretty long for a new class its the new c l a coupe play at 4. 69 meters its the same length as a c. Class and 5 centimeters longer than the b. M. W. 4 series grand. C. L. A. Who play is extremely important from a sadies the 1st generation sold more than 750000. Vehicles worldwide. So what does the new generation have to offer. The sleek headlights together with the low slung sculpted engine hood immediately give the c. L. A. A sporty appeal. Optional multibeam l. E. D. Headlights allow the projection of the light to be electronically adjusted to better suit the conditions. A combination of sharply sloping roof line of frameless doors emphasizes the c. L. A. Sporting credentials and the slender 2 piece tell lies along with the decision to shift the license plate to the lower bumper make the c. L. A. Appear specially why the back. Were testing this to 20 d. C. L. A. The cheerleader for still in the engine puts out 140. 00 kilowatts of power and springs from 0 to 100 kilometers an hour in just over 7 seconds to save you says it uses 4. 3 liters of diesel per 100 kilometers in germany prices for the c. L. A. To 20 started just over 40000. 00. In the nonsense from the interior you immediately recognize its a close slimline cluster. Turbine look air vents and the chunky steering wheels of the final things the optional 10 inch touch screen displays are great in this way because to us but in his opinion m. B. Us in for detainment system can be operated because voice commands and gestures is not worth the money. If you can operate the touchscreen with your finger instead you can save yourself several 1000 euros come down. In the interior everything is in keeping with the high tech design style the wide screen consisting of 2 displays serves as both a virtual dashboard and a control interface for the infotainment system. He. Says sitting in the back its pretty cramped with the natural coop a shape means theres not much headroom and with the white passengers a largely obscured from view. The c. Class certainly offers more space at the back the same applies to the trunk which is now even smaller on the new generation c. L. A. So. Another drawback is the high cell of the trunk which makes it difficult to load items. But when it comes to the driving experience the new c. L. A. Does disappoint the track is up to 6 centimeters wider at the front and rear compared to its predecessor this along with a low center of gravity definitely makes the c. L. A. The sportiest model of new generation of sadies best compact cars. In the field really afford one class with very real has been a winning combination from a sadies and remain unchanged theres a lack of space in the back seats and a high loading lip on the trunk own kind of bother most c. L. A. Customers. Those who love sporty elegance and high tech design are likely to be very happy with the new c. L. A. Looking at hondas model range the c. R. V. Is the launch of its 2. S. U. V. S and its also the 1st hybrid s. U. V. The company has offered the new. Deal with a quiet. In its been 3 says this decorative stripping looks like real wood but its a well made fake its like a lot of things on this car not what it appears at 1st glance so lets take a closer look in the ad. Is in its 5th generation as well as the 1. 5 liter turbo gasoline version there is also a bridge model with its very own drive concept. The dimensions are exactly the same so the hybrid also benefits from the longer wheelbase for free passengers plenty of room. Theres elegant chrome trim all around c. R. V. To realize direct your view from side to the back. Unfortunately since the hybrids batteries are located under the trunk floor this version cant be equipped with a 3rd row of seats. And that says theres a lot of Different Technology under the hood and theres actually a gasoline engine an electric motor that works as a generator a 2nd electric motor for propelling the car electrically and the control reaction but the real surprise is the gasoline engine because it doesnt actually propel the car and most of the time its not directly connected to the wheels and. The way the gasoline engine and the electric motor interact is the complete opposite of most hybrid drive systems while an electric motor drives the car 100. 00. 35 kilowatts and 315 metres of maximum talk the Combustion Engine serves as a pure supplier that it has a take in the vast majority of driving situations. Incidentally its a 2 liter 4 cylinder engine this unusual drive system and i was the individual components to be able to exploit their efficiency even better. In purely electronic traction only the electric light accounts ringback that was 135 kilowatts make the c. R. V. Hybrid a bit more powerful than the purely gasoline version allowing it to accelerate from 0 to 100 kilometers half a 2nd faster honda says the hybrid saves at least one liter of fuel per 100 kilometers as compared to the purely gasoline version then as we head on to the freeway the hybrid drops out of electric mode for a brief moments. Of doubt it is says thats because driving between 80 and 100 kilometers an hour is the only time when the gasoline engine transfers the power direct after the wheels at these speeds its the most efficient way to power the car and of that then back off a lot of. Using 3 different driving modes t. V. Economy and a sport the driver can influence the system choosing whether its purely electric especially economical or most will see what then happens under the hood is in for simple to the driver the Intelligent Control Software decides what to do completely thomas lee for that im going to says in keeping with the c. R. V. Is very different drive it has no shift lever in the traditional sense at one stage or press a button to choose the direction of travel. You dont hear you press to engage drive mode and up here you pull down on the switch to reverse. A reversing camera assist the driver in maneuvering. The interior of the c. R. V. Looks modern im even in the hybrid version of simple and clear restructure. A digital dashboard gives the driver an overview of the power flow indicating the vehicles concepts of power all 5 seats are comfortable and theres plenty of room making the cabin feel generous and airy. In his thinks the c. R. V. Hybrid is for people who are willing to try new technology and new ways of doing. That and you want to let the Technology Work for the day and you might find an electric car when its constantly charging too much trouble and let. The c. R. V. Is so easy to handle with technology that the driver really doesnt have to think about it. And it feels like a normal and i get conventionally powered vehicle but nothing on the way in kind then. The c. R. V. Hybrid in germany cost 3800. 00 euros moon in the normal gasoline version both models come with a choice of up front 4 wheel drive. Today our test drive that christophe bought is taking an unusual brazilian best seller for a spin the v. W. Brazilian built in 1800 in the fiftys brazil became one of the dummies most important markets back then the German Company only offered 2 models the beetle and the classic van even so its head high which north gained access to Global Markets helping turn phones fog and into the european comic. Highest turnover. In yeah the last net cost of the history of u. W. In brazil uniting 53. 00 live in its 1st foreign clubs in brazil and at 1st they built the beetle that look about which would remain the most popular car in brazil for decades yet so popular even if its a nickname for skyler doctors its not that the classic v. W. Bus also took south america by storm by the late 1960 s. All of then head of brazil and later chairman of the Company Began initiating new tailored models of course the fundamental clap for the ford on the stock could all be truly dead who to hire to. Plant full frame and separate Body Technology that was both simple and robust made the practically indestructible v. W. The perfect starting point for developing new models. Although the way the beetle is constructed was already outdated by the 1970 s. The underlying concept would remain vibrant for years to come. And crystal says very clear demands would be made on the new brazilian v. W. It would have to be practical more efficient and more spacious than the beetle and. It said that after 40 different prototypes the engineers put together a kind mirror combining all the best features of the 660. 00 motors from the beetle board and the floor segments from the common good with a Station Wagon style body from the v. W. Toy 3 mounted on top of the series was launched its 973 and was named after the countrys capital brasilia. Christophe things this one is it especially good shape is the most as if someone left the plastic wrapping on my kit that just left the factory busy in boise to fully get hired. Thats good although they have come out of. The house. And 1st the v. W. Brasilia was also available with 5. 00 for tax purposes the fastback model was initially marketed as a small delivery van bit by bit the new Station Wagon grew in popularity across the concept to the cost of notices that the combined rear engine and drive make the brazilian any unstable that speeds it would considering it wasnt easy to reach the cars top speed of 138 kilometers an hour on brazils notorious i was thats no big deal and its a. Must see r. P. M. Custom it was the one who came up with the brazilian is somewhat peculiar design he apparently was inspired by variants evolve spodes type 3 and 4 Station Wagon models appropriately called variant these 2 had a modern spacious 2 box frame that wasnt selfsupporting but mounted just like the beetle. To save it from the ravages of time the previous owner did indeed wrap the interior in plastic not very attractive but effective. In the. Comedy sign mcchrystal says the general idea behind a fastback is to provide more cargoes advice in my loading easy but with the brazilian thats not really the case the logic unloading still is extremely high and theres hardly any spicier the trunk thats because the engine is right below. The. Its a 50 foot almost power echoed 4 cylinder box engine and 1. 6 liters displacement of course in the good old beetle style its not flat but upright with huge fans and that takes up room that costs that my shallow. The v. W. Brasilia is certainly not a perfect car owners often complained it had serious rust issues legend has it even like collisions could cause rusty fuel panels to drop out taking passengers with them. Cuts class race despite its defects trust of says roughly a 1000000 v. W. Brazilians were manufactured and sold in brazil over 10 years. They were also made in mexico and nigeria where the cop was christened i got lucky and even if the brazilian was always something of a rolling in that prison could even get it with a 1. 3 ethanol motor towards the end of its production line. By line. Ethanol is a frequent alternative to gasoline brazil today most brazilian vehicles have socalled total flex engines that can handle any mixture of the 2 fuels weve got most of ratio. In europe the v. W. Brasilia has remained a rarity only a few of them can be found in portugal in the canary islands. If ill be able to in many ways crystal thinks the v. W. Brazilian can be considered the final stage of evolution of the beetle concept from the 1930 s. In that sense he says its a milestone car history. But its pretty says that outlived it while the brazilian was discontinued in 1902 the people continued to be manufactured in brazil until 996 it was succeeded by the south american take on the go.
