the spammy shailene majorca is ideal for holidays in the sun and for testing the cooper a take up and all kinds of road conditions. these contests are close needs food says compact s.u.v.s like the iraq are popular but says they're too tame for buyers who prefer even sporty or handling so cooper a c ats motorsports division has rolled out something special the a take up now klaus is going to try it out. has organized a little triathlon for his crossover and chivvy sport to pay off road country road and race track where the former race driver will push the intake into its limits. the 1st test rugged terrain here the s.u.v. is nimble enough all wheel drive and the high clearance do the trick but equipped with on road tires and can't show what it can really.

even with its higher center of gravity in the intake it ace's side to listen in clients of course it wasn't built to be an all terrain vehicle but for a crossover issue v. its performance is more than up to snuff. and the design reflects pure performance. on the way to the race track klaus checks how well it copes with country roads. he explains that the cooperage take is engine actually comes from the volkswagen g.t. i that's part of both wagons modular design concept and puts out $300.00 horsepower more than you generally need on country roads but then it's always nice to have some power in reserve he says for example when you need to pass quickly.

close finds nothing to complain about he thoroughly lacks the drive ability though the car understeers a little time to see what it can do on the track. on the majorca circuit klaus is able to push the intake into its limits. but 1st here's a summary of the model specs. that close thinks the 400 meters of torque from the turbo charged engine is more than enough to exit tight curves at a good clip he points out that the all wheel drive also provides the traction needed to accelerate out of curves and get up to speed fast on straight away talk to chanel to get. the thrust is put through

a newly developed 7 speed d.s.t. dual kludged automatic transmission and being close confirms of the car waffles a little when turning through a series of back and forth tight curves and says oh cars do to some extent when you turn left and then right quickly but i thought they up and with the higher center of gravity here as in all it's you vs this one is no exception but he has no trouble keeping it under control he had taken out as a very smart all wheel drive and since the throw stewards needed he says that makes for a well balanced current a very good nicely tight suspension has various settings and on the track of course puts it on the sporty just want to cut back hard to. quantify but at 32 spot besides. the driving mode called cooper it is very responsive and the suspension nice and tight but that makes little sense for ordinary driving the normal mode on

the other hand seems fuel and gets the car through traffic less aggressively. that those who follow the clouds decides that the company hasn't promised too much akubra take a left a good impression on the track but not many owners will be driving fair by the way in germany the base version starts at 42850 euros one of the oil. price cog of hunters to young buy here pops a trivia question what's currently the world's best silly midsize sedan it's the camry toyota has churned out over 19000000 of them worldwide since the model was launched in 1902 when the last camry was sold in germany in 2004 and then discontinued and europe hardly noticed the sticking point was that buyers in the market for nearly 5 meter long. sedan generally opted for

a diesel instead of the camry's 3 leader v 6 gasoline engine but times change and now the camry's come back to europe as a full hybrid. company yet for if you believe that come back you know. toyota is taking a conscious approach to the camry used to return and is counting on selling just $12000.00 units the 1st year in all of europe that compares to about 700000 sold annually worldwide the japanese carmakers also targeting a very specific group taxi drivers city traffic is where the new 4 hybrid can use its low fuel consumption to the best advantage and leave the hard work up to the electric motor it can cover about half the trips taken in normal conditions on electric drive only achieving a total system performance of $160.00 kilowatts together with a 4 cylinder 2 and a half leader gasoline engine.

just want to know what a yawn finds it hard to tell if the camry is running on electric or gasoline powered while he's moving aside from the sound of the tires on the road he can't really hear any difference in sight nor does he notice any change when the car automatically switches from electric to combustion power everything's very smooth and quiet in sight but he admits the automatic continuously variable transmission took some getting used to it felt to him like a rubber band was pulling the car because the engine gets louder before the added thrust kicks in. even then what. would out. if what you saw. the words for gasoline engine allows the camry to shift a lot more evenly and harmoniously than the less powerful one in toyota's prius hybrid even though it has a can t. . variable transmission as well.

up front the camry sports a large trap as a way to air dam. the ends of the bumper frame the air intakes to give the body a hint of a catamaran double bow. the generously laid out and easily accessible trunk offers 524 liters of volume. i don't mind and yet this camry makes jaan feel more like cruising easily down the road than racing around a puts that down to a power train that's designed for efficiency and a very comfortable suspension but even though it was fine tune especially for europe he can still tell the model was developed primarily for the american market and smoothed over the bumps in the road quite nicely but at high speeds his body

tends to start moving around the vehicle. the camry has profited from the car maker's new t.n.g.'s a the toyota a new global architecture platform and the car maker is integrating into the body structure of many of its other models it's given the camry 30 percent a greater torsional rigidity. in live on and off it will ya notice is 1st about the interior is the high quality workmanship but he also notices that some features like the sat nav the displays resolution and even the buttons for the heated seats located down on the console they all look a little dated. the 2.8 meter wheelbase allows for a spacious interior a 7 inch info display dominates the instrument cluster while an 8 inch infotainment system grade. says the center console.

concludes that the full hybrid camry would serve well as a cruising sedan for traveling although it's low fuel consumption any missions ratings are best appreciated in stop and go city traffic in spite of its quirks when accelerating a full hybrid sedan has no real competition in the mid-size segment he says so it will be interesting to see of toyota will stick with the $12000.00 engle units its plan for the full hybrid camry will soon become a more common sight on europe's roads. in an effort to make all electric cars practical and affordable volkswagens opening a new chapter with its id 3 and 3 stands for v.w. is compact class and v.w.

7 series he wants to see how it drives and especially how it feels when you're being driven. just over 3 years after the last update the very in car maker has once again worked over its flagship model giving it a new look and adding the newest technology. the latest version of b.m.w. as luxury sedan has significantly larger trademark kidney grills than his predecessors 40 percent larger according to the designers the headlights on the other hand have shrunk the car maker will continue to offer the 7 series in short and long variants but with have added 22 millimeters in length. and says new every detail lights with a light strip identify the car along with 2 other clues on the rear the x. drive the cars 4 wheel drive system and the 745 alley badging the number tells you about the motor the l. stands for long and the means it's

a plug in hybrid. the facelift in 7 series interior was left mostly untouched except for the 12.3 inch digital instrument cluster behind the wheel as well as a 10 and a quarter inch console on the central stack. just like the last version it's give it out with a luxury is leather seats. the rear is as comfortable as b.m.w. can make it that's where c.e.o.'s politicians and others who can afford it recover from the stress of their jobs. or try to get up again says the engines ranged from the 730 to the m 760 l. y. in other words from a 4 cylinder to a powerful v 12 he decided to take out the 700. 5 for

a reason. the street 6 cylinder plug in hybrid has a total system output of $290.00 kilowatts and can hit 100 kilometers per hour from a dead standstill and just over 5 seconds the top speed is electronically capped at 250 kilometers an hour when running on electric power alone the 745 l e x drive has only a 54 kilometer range. coming from 5 yes says handling couldn't be better the chassis is very comfortable and steering is precise and responsive the brakes are nicely incremental and he's happy to turn over the annoying task of shifting gears to the 8 speed automatic transmission which does the job better than he ever could but. many buyers of the 7 series won't be driving it themselves they'll often have a chauffeur for that so what's it like to sit in back in the lap of luxury.

as even is in the end says the long version of the 7 series is the chauffeur limo and he's in a back enjoying the ride i can really imagine sitting back here for you and a 1000 kilometers while getting a massage by the seat watching t.v. and giving the occasional order up front that if he felt like it he could even work back here but that he would want to do that he asked. that. so the bottom line is that the 7 series has grown even more comfortable quiet and luxury is it's not the kind of car you jump into for a quick trip to the store but it's ideal for a longer journey whether behind the wheel or in back. for. s.u.v.s or so. opposed to be versatile able to get the job done both on and off the

road also some brands also emphasize sportiness she has taken a different approach with her sport each despite its name a korean car maker has supplied a fuel saving hybrid concept to its most powerful diesel its 48 volt battery and 12 kilowatt starter generator let the combustion engine switch off even while the car is moving toward sample when it's coasting or break. these are very minimal schafer says the diesel he has today is supported by the mild hybrid network which lowers consumption by taking the strain off the combustion engine and when you coast up to a light at under 30 kilometers an hour the engine cuts out you say go up to it he says and that also saves fuel. the electric motor can enhance torque by up to 55 newton meters giving that to leader diesel sportage $136.00 kilowatts of

power and taking it to 100 kilometers an hour a 9 and a half seconds compared to the conventional 2 leader diesel version of the s.u.v. the mild hybrid reduces consumption and emissions by have to 10 percent down to a respectable $5.00 leaders per 100 kilometers on the road. emanuel says the sportage is handling is a pretty relaxed affair the genesee is soft and so is the steering not really made her sporty driving on the other hand as an s.u.v. soon you want higher c.s. and a good overview and you certainly have that. several changes have also been made to the looks of a new sport each the front has been given more contours and a more exclusive appearance overall the optional l.e.d. headlights and filigree grille lended a more dynamic modern air the face lifted model is also longer than its predecessor and now measures just on. for 4 and

a half meters. and back the under ceiling jumps out at you and gives the new sporty gibran to your appearance. officially they can sportage is a compact s.u.v. but its dimensions are a little too large for that but you notice it when you sit in back says the man oh well there's plenty of leg room want to get that he moved to the rear and still has over a hand's breath of space so no reason to complain if. the interior of this test car is fitted with a g t trim line and includes a leather flat bottom steering wheel. the upholstery is also leather while the seams are stitched in a contrast in red all in all the impression is one of quality workmanship. yet in

called this young man or says he likes the sportage is tidy interior the buttons on the middle console are intuitive and you quickly find what you need just like with other manufacturers it's all high gloss which is not good for dust or fingerprints but that complaint applies to pretty much every car otherwise everything is tiptop . all in all he says the key is sportage is a solid car it has some weaknesses but also strengths and you can't forget that it generally comes with a 7 year warranty practically no other manufacturer gives that he says the would be . the sporty inches key is top selling model worldwide both a mild hybrid diesel and other available engines made strict new european emissions requirements. for.

today we're taking a unique early 1950 s. car for a spin the v.w. beetle stole coupe a v.w. beetle went into mass production in 1905 selling millions a no frills car suited to the bleak postwar period but by 1990 w. began selling a beetle convertible and a better equipped version for export the economic miracle every new germans thirst for luxury. now i'm up there on a hot vintage car expert pushed out by worse as wealthy german lawyer baron hard to keep on always going from bad to now hi i'm was an artsy kind of sewer for whom a mass produced b. don't just wouldn't do so he designed this wonderful v.w. beetle stoke to pay in $1051.00 local coach builders stole under took the customization based on an export beetle model to be a valid to break with uniformity. the v.w.
