and the new skoda scala. kalina chris human moshi for ask what do the v.w. polo in the v.w. golf and the new skoda scalloped have in common and they share the same m q b a 0 platform but and 4.35 meters it's longer than the goal 7 now human was going to put it through its paces. the scholars the successor to the rapid space back its name scholar by the way is latin for stairs or ladder or forward gas scale. it comes with a choice of engines ranging in output from $66.00 to $110.00 kilowatts we're testing the smallest gasoline powered version at $85.00 kilowatts he carries the car from $0.00 to $100.00 kilometers per hour in under 10 seconds reaching

a top speed of $201.00 kilometers per hour. joining the gasoline and diesel engines a leader in 2019 will be a match or a gas powered version. if the model admits that at 1st he was skeptical about a one of your 3 cylinder engine achieving $85.00 kilowatts he thought the car would be underpowered now he realizes that's now. a case at all he experiences the skull as nice and snappy with a cinch and it's not that heavy and even if it's a basic engine it's quite sufficient for the car's needs. to fit a thought so i the curb weight plus the driver come to just 1240 kilograms available for the 1st time as an option is the sport chassis control where the chassis is set 15 millimeters lower than standard and the suspension can

be set to normal or sport with the driving mode select. the scurrilous front offers a preview of the new design features soon to be shared by all future skoda models optional are the full l.e.d. headlights. hardly to be missed are the taillights reaching around to the sides these are also available in full l.e.d. versions. so i bought a minimal sees the greater length allows for greater cargo space at the back seats of a comes to 467 leaders the largest volume in a small family car class. folding the seats down increases the space to a resoundingly 1400 intend leaders. inside the latest info team a generation is available in 3 variants. a model has the middle variant in

his test car an 8 inch screen but no navigation function you can still use the sat nav system to find his way but only on a smartphone whether i phone or android either one android auto or apple card play can be selected with or without a court a phone can be recharged on one of 2 u.s.b. seaports or cordless li it's all over the bottom of the. the seats are comfortable and provide good lateral support with their high science. i mean this man well considers this is based on the m q b a 0 platform like a polo though it isn't small he's impressed by the leg room and site almost on par with the bigger octavia. a minimal recalls that's going to has a reputation for and simply clever solutions and finds an example under the hood

filling port for the windshield wiper fluid is a little funnel you knows that other car makers could take it as an example i know more spills all the fluid goes right where it should or should i get. this countless suspension feels just as clever confident and smooth. any money well as estimation scala is a truly worthy successor to the ramp it and he understands why skoda changed the name of the scala comes only in the hatchback body style but with a new design language and bigger dimensions among other things that's certainly enough to justify a new name as though nuff what's involved and then i'm again. the rep in space back with an engine comparable to the skull when tested here can be had for about $17600.00 euros less than the skull but then the higher price by

slots of additional standard equipment. if stuff. is pleased to be testing a very special car today that's not often seen the numbers alone pack a punch of the engine surely. 351 kilowatts and a maximum 530 new meters of torque. this is the lexus are seen in it's top of the line f. for the f. stands for japan's famous fuji speedway and march the specially sporty versions of

lexus models were testing the r c f carbon edition of the hood roof and spoiler are all made of carbon fiber. the 4 tailpipes in form drivers coming up from behind that overtaking the r.c.f. is no easy task and the car to sit on the open road. the side julian loves the paddle shifters of shift on the right down on the left in a 10th of a 2nd thanks to the converter lockup pledge from 2nd to 8th gear. if the engine is cold in manual mode the car shifts gears automatically to go easy on the engine once the engines reached optimal temperature drivers shift all they want.

and the higher the speed the more fun it gets. julian says the r.c.s. feels most at home on the autobahn a driver can either cruise along comfortably for longer stretches or if there's no speed limit it as is the case here take the lexus to its limits one shore down shift and off you go. the 5 leader v 8 naturally aspirated engine hurls the r.c.f. from $0.00 to $100.00 kilometers an hour and $4.00 seconds top speed is $270.00 flexes reach fuel consumption at $10.00 leaders per $100.00 kilometers in germany the r.c.f. starts at $78400.00 euros but the carbon addition conscious about $12000.00 euros extra. julian says the r.c.f.

is a 2 plus 2 seater so let's see how much space there is in back. the front seats slide forward electronically making it easier to climb in. julian says it's a snug fit and he doesn't have much spare leg or head room but for a drive to the nearest big town a little bit too close to the. life of. the lever steering wheel feels good in includes lots of buttons the cockpit is tight and there's a big digital r.p.m. display and an analog speedometer. and the interior has carbon fiber elements to sporty bucket seats not only look great they reveal their true purpose and fast curves for.

b r c f s for driving modes eco normal sport and sport plus. an eco mode a blue circle shows how eco friendly the driving style is if you step harder on the gas the display goes out. when julian switches to sport plus mode he sees the display get sportier watson yes. and read both muscular colors life and see if it drives that way to. the r.c.f. wars have all frequency driving it under $3000.00 rpm and screeching at over $4000.00 although as we found out a sound generator helps out but only in the sport and sport plus muppets. that's julian says that inside the r.c.f. is a fairly loud car that's ok it's a v.

8 engine after all and it's meant to be heard more toward the end itself. for those who prefer more quiet driving and doing the environment a favor there's also a hybrid version of the r.c. called the $300.00 h. it puts out $164.00 kilowatts and goes from 0 to 100 kilometers an hour and $8.00 seconds fuel consumption is rated 5 liters per $100.00 kilometers that's half the rate of the r.c.s. . julian says sport who pays usually have a tiny trunk with room for almost nothing but here the r.c.f. proves surprisingly practical as 366 liters of cargo space are enough for a short getaway or your weekly shopping but what more could you ask. how about even more muscle at the geneva car show in march

a strictly limited track edition of the r.c.f. was unveiled at some 80 kilos lighter using an electronic launch control lexus says this lightweight r.c.f. goes from 0 to $100.00 and under 4 seconds. with its new 8. am g.c.l. a 35 for matic mercy these expands his range of subcompact sports cars the 225 kilowatt power train familiar from the a 35 has been transplanted to the c.l.a. equipped with a race started mode and variable all wheel drive the 4 door sedan leaps from $0.00 to $100.00 kilometers per hour and just $4.00 seconds it'll hit showroom floors in august 29th. audi's amy provides

a glimpse of the future of urban driving featuring compact dimensions around a spacious pioneering interior and level for keep ability for automated driving. that means it needs no active input from the driver at 4.3 meters in length it's only the size of a compact car. and some 19000000 sold the toyota camry is the best selling midsize car in the world but not in europe the camry was discontinued in germany in 2004 now it's making a comeback as a full hybrid this camry achieves a system performance of $160.00 kilowatts and about half the time it can run on a lecturing drive only.

going to 7 old guys and over isn't trying to sell sunflowers he wants to focus on the environment and he'll be a testing the polo team not a. t.g.i. running on natural gas it emits 20 percent less c o 2 per kilometer and almost no particulates otherwise the hardly any difference from the regular polo can be seen not on the tailpipe nor the nameplate but when driving the difference can be found on. thank you be on. the new polo is still a many but noticeably longer than its predecessor even as a t.g.i. . it measures a good 4 metres in length with a 2 and a half metre wheelbase he added space goes mainly for cargo. and impressive 251 leaders volume expands to

a cavernous 1025 leaders with the back seats down but t.g.i. owners will have to do without the spare wheel well. and all those other things that i know confirms apolo t.j. looks identical to the conventional model that he likes the cockpit inodes 2 fuel gauges one for gasoline and one for natural gas. the dash is the same color as the body paint and the trim lends the interior a fresher look. at the sales of over $14000000.00 the polo is

a giant among small cars the natural gas version is new to the current 6 generation but how does it handle. things. i know discovers that t.j. doesn't have the best pick up it feels a bit rough but that has less to do with a natural gas drive than with the 3 cylinder engine to the sound reminds him of an old it's a $22.00 c.v. so i'd say the 50 year is so. at rather high so on the open road the driver has to anticipate things to keep moving smoothly but the environment will be the better off. so when. the polo t.g.i. is powered by a triple charge 3 cylinder engine putting out $66.00 kilowatts it takes about $3.00 kilos of natural gas per $100.00 kilometers which he meets 93 grams of c o 2 per kilometer prices for the polo t.g.i. started $20550.00 euros in germany.

that i didn't i hold explains that the normal 3 cylinder engine had to be reinforced for natural gas which has a higher energy density and the gasoline tank always has to hold enough to get the engine started once it's warmed up the engine switches to natural gas automatically and the change be felt before august. this combined gasoline and natural gas system is known as by village and driver can switch from one to the other at any time but the gasoline tank holds only 9 leaders compared to the 91.5 liter natural gas tank that gives the polar t.g.i. a range of up to $368.00 kilometers on natural gas. imported to you know finds the polo t.g.i. drives almost like an electric car he drives very defensively and keeps an eye on

the range display to go as far as possible on natural gas that saves both money and he mischa's collateral gas costs about 30 percent less than gasoline but that's before the ambition will cost of over $2000.00 euros for the power train the owner has to clock up to $70000.00 kilometers to break even but the environmental benefits start with the very 1st kilometer. puts it up to me asking kilometer. so far above 9 hug. when filling stations in germany for natural gas so the range concerns faced by electric vehicle owners are i'm non-issue another advantage over electric drive is that it hardly takes longer to fill up on natural gas than on diesel or gasoline. concludes that a natural gas powered cars the ideal alternative for buyers not quite ready for electric or hybrid drive but polo t.g.i. is no drag racer but it's environmental advantages make up for that natural gas is

an alternative fuel with which a neutral c o 2 balance can be achieved what it does he mean it can be offset by measures such as planting trees bees then buying c o 2 through photosynthesis offsetting what is he needed by the car. said ste 24 teams of the class has been the elegant people carrier in the mercedes lineup now the german car maker has face lifted its biggest passenger vehicle we're testing the new model with its biggest engine. will also take a peek at the electric drive version e.q. the concept vehicle due to enter production soon. but 1st let's see what's new in the conventional b. class b. m.
