that is a lie has a serious problems on a personal level and i was unable to live there unless i'm going to. want to know their story and for migraines verified and reliable information for my parents. oh and welcome to dr and then p.w. motor magazine. today's highlights out in about what a concept car we drive the out each around los angeles the small but spacious fonda jazz dynamic. and the new seattle leon cooper our esteemed.

spanish brand see it shows them picture as roads around its home city a barcelona to show off what will be the last three on cooper and to bear the sea out logo a high performance machine for a final farewell. what this economy is based here says there are lots of sporty station wagons offering plenty of space powerful engines and a brownie look to boot whether it's an am chief or mercedes have b.m.w. m model or an r. s. from out they all have their own logo which they're proud to wear and not to be outdone see out recently turned its sporty cooper models into a separate brand with their own logo a cooper i take it was its debut model but they seem to have forgotten this one for the sierra leone cooper r.s.t. the badge on the grill is c. at night cool frog you know who wonders why it's not part of the cooper family and it's certainly not lacking in the aggressive style i think so my mistake was that.

the cooperage does indeed look the part chunky air intakes plenty of carbon along with the comfort colored accents all add to the racy appeal of the salient cooper are honesty. and extended rear spoiler made of carbon fiber dominates the back of a large rear diffuser and quad tailpipes also emphasize the coopers sporting credentials. that is going to go on says the leon cooper it comes with the launch control and standard for that you have to switch off and set it to support it allows you to go from not to one hundred kilometers an hour and four point nine seconds. then cooper which weighs in at one point six tons is able to crack the five second mark not least because of its all wheel drive the car is powered by a two liter four cylinder turbo charged gasoline engine boasting two hundred twenty

one kilo watts of power and four hundred nude meters maximum torque the top speed has been electronically limited to two hundred fifty kilometers an hour. but that i don't says the r. is t's all wheel drive gives it endless amounts of traction whatever surface you're driving on so speeding round bends is no problem but if you're on a longer drive and not interested in all that you can switch on the comfort mode which gives you lighter steering and softer suspension but if you're looking for more there's the sport mode and if you like it really hot there's the cooper mode where you never drop below two hundred r.p.m. in the steering is super responsive so you can really speed and it bends. the front axle has been reworked to improve handling performance while ensuring a decent level of comfort during the drive i may get camber

a few degrees at the front and rear means fire cornering speeds are possible. behind the fence is the coin tailpipes might make you worry about up sending the neighbors but they say it doesn't have a super noisy exhaust system that will terrorize your neighbors instead it's fitted with a sound actuator which sends vibrations up the windscreen and thinks it doesn't sound unpleasantly synthetic so you can get to enjoy the rumbling inside the car while still keeping your neighbors happy to get them out there is all happy. ok and tara and carbon dominate the interior of the digital cockpit comes with a choice of this flame modes and designs. sporty bug good seeds covered in a cantarell long with carbon look door panels roundoff the mildly sporty appearance . that up please and i finally yawn once to

clarify the confusion over the missing cooper logo it's clear that this car has all the power and performance of a cooper by its spacious two offering up to. thousand five hundred sixty leaders a cargo space with a back seat folded down the answer is actually quite simple and the new generation leone is due out later this year so this is like a farewell to the previously successful generation and the form of a limited edition model a new generation of a call then having a cooper logo. the persian five thousand e g t is nothing if not i can't shake the french carmaker peugeot has come up with a distinctive design that is a crossover between an s.u.v. and a van it's intended to be practical while looking dynamic masculine and elegant too

but it's not a true off road vehicle i like its rivals it has no all wheel drive option. that has all car to salou as kapil says the new push zero five thousand a.g.t. has little to do with its predecessor what was once a boring family van is now a sporty crossover it's looks that are closer to the peugeot three thousand eight with its smaller brother. but he says he is quite a bit bigger offering luxury and the latest technology for massage seats in the front of the sensor activated tailgate of five thousand eight has just about everything to make your day a little easier. inside the freak show is uncluttered and well laid out the small steering wheel and the digital icons that are just two of the many highlights. but i call it lewis's pujo second generation iconic it has been completely redesigned and he

likes it a lot better if that's not flat on the steering wheel since just below the dash so you can clearly see this pedometer without ever taking your eye off the road because of. five thousand eight offers the latest driver assist features including active safety brake with front collision warning active lane keeping assistance and wind spot detection and driver attentional are. with us wired hood and steel cut grill the peugeot looks ready for anything. and the chrome elements on the g.t. trim give it that extra touch of real lecturing. and crossovers tailgate enjoys an extra modern look thanks to the contrast between the rear lights and the black strip there build into the real like catcher is the small

group edge spoiler. humidify four point sixty four meters long lewis says it can show give you plenty of space there's even room for an optional third rule foldable seats for two more passengers. have gone up as well as think this is where the persian really picks up points because it's very flexible although the seats are better suited for kids effort than adults. we've tested the five thousand needs top diesel version with a blue h.d.i. engine and puts out one hundred thirty kilowatts from the g.t. variant it hits one hundred kilometers per hour nine point two seconds and tops out at two hundred eighty kilometers per hour. the price tag for this version in germany starts in forty two thousand five hundred euros.

that was since the six beat out of many transmission is a breeze to handle the steering gets light and you get. stands for the g t's link the first time you look in the rearview mirror. but despite its size the five thousand eight doesn't need much to get going you know estimates one hundred kilometers of driving need she has four point nine leaders of diesel. which shut up as well as fines of five thousand e g t convincing it offers a huge amount of space on the luxury features and a modern design the third row seats are just too small for adults but on the other hand good first smaller kids which could make it appealing for families of those on us and.

or save easy m g has released a race optimized version of its am g g t r pro sports car the chassis improved power to weight ratio and increased aerodynamic surges some of what's new the car is outfitted with a rollover protection system and a poor ford seatbelt for the driver and passenger it reaches one hundred kilometers an hour in just three point six seconds topping out at three hundred eighteen kilometers per hour. bentley has brought out its continental g.t. convertible now in the third generation but unlike its predecessor a spending changes are subtle but top of the line version supports a twelve cylinder engine putting out four hundred sixty seven kilowatts and nine hundred meters of torque the continental g.t. convertible goes on sale in germany in june with prices starting at two hundred twenty eight thousand five hundred euros and you have in twenty nineteen to these electric cars are still in hock demand and.

we've come to the streets of los angeles where we've been given the exclusive opportunity to try out the algae eater. concept car that was unveiled at the l.a. auto show late last year. started history manohar schaffer likes the look of the straight up but he won't be on his own for the dry he's joined by dennis schmitz three technical project manager for the each . foot dennis says it's a fully fledged show car but he's happy to show him on a well what the team is like that. accompanied by a police escort the pair begin their trip through the streets of l.a. the car has no number plates and is not normally permitted to drive on public roads a fully electric coupe a boast an impressive four hundred thirty four kilowatts of power so it could rival

some sports cars out there and all with zero emissions but sadly here in the city they can't push each run anywhere near to its limits aside from the electric motor the cabin of the car is also unusual. does dennis explains that the interior uses only materials there are no animal based products at all the steering wheel uses microfiber the seats are fabric it includes recycled materials the floor mats for example are made of reclaimed fishing nets. it certainly looks quite futuristic the slimline hexagonal steering wheel in the style of a slide control for the automatic transmission are a break with tradition for audi the entire interior is tailored to the driver's needs there's also space for a head up display which would project information to where the driver can see it more easily. at first the seats were quite comfortable but during the drive the

minimal starts to realize that while the each. has a good grip on the road it's also pretty hard the slightest bump in the road is immediately. passed on through the seats to the occupants. dennis explains that's because this is only a show car and doesn't yet have this is a bench and the final each will have he says the final vehicle will be sporty but it'll still be a comfortable ride. that there's something else that's still bothering him in a way it has got the only see this as a touring car he says but the range of four hundred kilometers has finally get you around the city and a bit beyond but what if you want to go on holiday to another country for example of how are you going to keep the battery charged. demonstrates your zimm it's quite possible because the eternal g.t.

has an eight hundred vote battery which allows up to three hundred fifty kilowatt fast charging so it takes about twenty minutes to recharge the battery to eighty percent that will take you another three hundred twenty kilometers so you can take a coffee break for twenty minutes and then you're off again. finally it's time to change drivers the money well can now get his hands on the steering wheel driving a concept car on public roads with a police escort isn't something you gets to do every day. while driving he immediately notices something else. that when you take a foot off the gas it slows to a stop your dentist says that's right it doesn't creep at all he says audi decided not to have it creep so you have to use the accent rate or if you want to go anywhere so that means it's recuperating energy right until you start it's this freak energy recuperation system along with

a ninety kilowatt per hour battery fitted in the floor of the vehicle that now he says gives him a four hundred kilometer range. in his ads that the american market requires electric vehicles to have the obvious. which emits a sound up to a speed of thirty kilometers an hour so that the tester ians can hear it coming. so there was our trial of the audi tron in l.a. a gentle stroll that you don't do every day. of spanish says he enjoyed it emanuel certainly did but now he's keen to try out the finnish car with. dennis promises out he won't disappoint in two years' time. so perhaps we'll be back here again in two thousand and twenty one and then without the police escort. the honda jazz compact goes back a way since its debut in two thousand and one the car maker has sold seven million

of them to its latest model from twenty teams and is a pressure sportier look. but that our card testing is paid for he says until now the jazz was only available with a one point three meter engine at seventy five kilowatts now it's added a more powerful version with a one point five liter gasoline engine that puts out ninety five kilowatts. but the new engine is only available with a dynamic model it also reflects the car's new sporty look highlighted by the red trim along the spoiler with. colorful details to find the

interior to such as red stitching on the steering wheel seats and gear shift. the gas tank is under the front seats this allows for an especially roomy interior a red trim runs right along the rear diffuser. rounding up a sporty appearance a well defined roof edge spoiler but foreigners such a small car it's what's on the inside that really counts. or tester tells us that the jazz is in seniors and designers set out with a specific goal to create as much space for people and their needs as possible with a car and its features taking up as little space as possible that i'm moving boxes

will test just how well this idea translates into every day use. packing the car is easy thanks to a lower loading height and wide rear hatch. intelligently stacked there is room for thirteen boxes in the back. with a bow. back seat folded down one hundred jazz offers a maximum of one thousand three hundred fourteen leaders of cargo space with the seats up and the parcel shelf in place you have three hundred fifty four leaders but even then the compact car has a little trick to offer oh he had enough that lets you know says honda's magic seeds as it calls them are hugely popular you simply for the seed upwards and then tuck away the supporting bar as well which fixes the seat in the upright position leaving you space for items that need more height like plants for example.

so would certainly spacious for such a small car but does it also live up to a sporty look in his hips the open road the new one point five liter i.v. take gasoline engine offers ninety five kilowatts of power with a manual transmission that jazz excel rates from zero to one hundred kilometers an hour in eight point seven seconds if you're not so keen on a manual you can get an automatic transmission for an extra thirteen hundred euros . that's how enos notices while driving that the biting point on the clutch pedal is very high then gears have a very short throw so it can feel sporty but it is feels she has to really work the gas pedal to pick up speed and then it feels like she has a lot of revs but it's not necessarily being transferred to the wheels that's because the one hundred fifty five nude meters of maximum torque only kick in at

forty six hundred r.p.m. on the other hand if you're on the expressway and six year then you find the car still has a lot to give. on this is the compact car has a top speed of one hundred ninety kilometers per hour so that's actually no different to the smaller engine. but when you want to put your foot. down for a sudden spurt then you do notice the benefit of a new engine with its admission all torque. is some of them on that death and then making this really likes the design of the hundred year as dynamic she thinks the red accents on the front spoiler and rear diffuser work well and the arrangement with the seats provides a lot of flexibility for stowing cargo. from an ion and with a new engine it is think sound is on the right path in this but she thinks it could

still be a little more sporty but since spotlight at. b.m.w. debuted it's new was motorcycle on the estoril racetrack near lisbon. and here it is the new s. one thousand r r it first came onto the scene in two thousand and nine now in its third generation b.m.w. sets itself the goal of making a model that's lighter easier to handle and one second faster than its predecessor . the race track is the best place to let us fully test the bike and push it to its limits by bloggers einar friedman is checking out the as one thousand r r four s. . the s.

is it trying it for the first time he said the fit was perfect even for someone his size such a small racing bikes can be an issue but he fits on this one great the first time around was really exciting when you first had to check out the course but everything went very smoothly it was really comfortable with the road tires everything was fine the traction control. everything in check you could even make mistakes without a problem even breaking late on a curve the a.b.s. took care of everything and it's obvious that i was thinking of. taking a closer look the m. version comes in b.m.w. has received colors aside guards are in blazing with initials are armed. with rims made of carbon b s one thousand are are is even lighter. and of course there's an m. sport seat.

has six point five inch t.f.t. display has been updated and for ride modes frame the sport dynamic range becomes standard to ensure optimal driving in all conditions. but it's the redesigned motor that's the true game changer. that's the neuer our motor expert tells us the new b.m.w. s one thousand our engine is four kilograms lighter and incorporates b.m.w. shift cam technology for the first time shift cam allows for a two in one concept a torque focused engine for the road and a very powerful engine for the race track a shift cam is comprised of two actuators and a shaft with two sliding segments depending on the revs you drive either on horsepower or torque can of this ystem switches automatically at one thousand revolutions meeting five millie seconds to go from a torque to

a horse power oriented engine. naturally the tires also play a key role when it comes to driving at high speeds. with the bike i bike blogger says that a racing bike needs racing slicks because normal road tires are boring on the race track that makes them particularly excited slicks are completely different type of tire from road ones with different mic. ratios because road tires need to handle rain slinks are specially designed for asphalt and good weather so he wants to see how the slicks handle the. final preparations before reiner friedman prepares to take one more lap around the track. the bikes performance clocks in at one hundred fifty two kilowatts it's lighter than its predecessor between nine and twelve point five kilograms lighter depending

on the model standard features include a.b.s. pro and dynamic traction control and suring safer braking while leaning into corners. the avs are not as says a motorbike needs to be a great ride and it was he says the slicks were perfect for it and weather like this and a race track like this you don't need road tires you really feel the tires groaning under the power of this thing that really takes to the road it's a lot of fun. to think about that the feet of the bottom in full flipping because it's because. because one thousand are are clearly performs well weather and every day use winding country roads or the race track in high performance mode and in germany purchasing one will cost you less than twenty thousand euros.

next time on drive it will test out the opel insignia sports tourer. and get ready for summer with the new b.m.w. aid series convertible.
