has been here car tester close needs of its use in the pyrenees southern france on the past 700 meters up on a road often used by the tour de france cyclist but he certainly didn't have to pedal the new audi as q.a. to get up here at the end stands for the sportiness provided by a whopping 435 horsepower and now klaus is going to give us a little sample on some mail involved. traditionally audi only hangs the s. badge on it sports models but this is a good sized s.u.v. can it really deliver what we'd expect from a true s. model. but i don't close admits right off that an audi q 8 is a hefty car but this is the class more and more buyers are going for it offers lots of room and lots of comfort now there. more agility and this one the s.q.

wade and sporting is to the equation if he's going to say if it adds up i thought this guy had already told my mother. and terms of performance the s. q.h. $320.00 kilowatts definitely qualify as a sports car that leads from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour inches 4.8 seconds. his own food doesn't come from a gasoline engine but from a turbo charged v.a. diesel the only engine available for the eschewing. the madden i think close wonders why audience chose to put a diesel in the s q 8 the engineers must have known what they're doing these holes are powerful this one achieves 435 horsepower and 900 meters or torque out of your race fuel consumption at less than 8 leaders per 100 kilometer klaus used a bit less than 9 leave so he kept his foot on the gas v 8 engine has 4 leaders

displacement off to the top speed is capped at 250 kilometers per hour on the highway it's fast 0100 kilometer per hour sprint makes it easy to forget this car waste $2.00 tons. all that power comes to the road through an 8 speed tiptronic automatic transmission working without a hitch to make sure the s.q.a. has enough thrust available at every river a nj audi give it to turbo charge one for the lower range and one for the after. one close steps on the gas against anybody in response and the lower reverentially plenty of pickup in the upper one there's yet another smaller electronically driven turbo charge of it gives this out he is a mild hybrid system off with a big starter motor drives the engine with a belt when you turn the ignition and once the cars moving on the electric energy is used to give it a little extra push when accelerating. everybody who remained in malta or one of

them on the wall sat. in a good mood still not all the bomb to show any good on a moment to look to still understood. q.a. drivers might briley go offroad when they do the 25 centimeters clearance is nice to have. on the old side of the s.q. it stands out from its non and siblings primarily by the sporty design of its bumpers. b l e d headlights are standard as an option they can be replaced with me and we get headlights. toward the rear the roofline t. person ear couture a body style and the quad exhaust tips make for a striking conclusion. to me interior has no shortage of shiny trim or a kitchen to polish it clean but at least the result is a high quality ambience. was

stored seed search standard but klaus is not sold into the optional as seats with even better lateral support. the 605 metres of cargo space extends to a maximum 1755 liters. but it's not close hardly needs to mention this as q.a. has always drives and it's electronically controlled in addition of roll stability control can be ordered to electronic stabilizers one in french and one in back keep the car from rolling excessively incur these are fitted with electric motors that in just the stiffness of the sway bars so the ride may be relatively soft or relatively hard depending on condition of the buyer can also choose between 21 and 22 inch wheels this test car has 22 and sharin out only do they look nice they all . so make for good handling. in spite of its weight the s.u.v.

roans curves with grace thanks to the standard audi drive select dynamic haggling system and the adaptive air suspension sport with regulated damping and the weight does have its plus sights those being greater stability and comfort known technically as the mass moment of inertia. close to surprise at how incredibly agile the s.u.v. seems kind of hard changes of direction he believes it's partly because of the engine characteristics and partly because of the suspension it since the car hardly rolls when taking curves at high speed it gives the impression of being lighter than it is so nice to stabilizers noticeably reduce the subject you know the feeling of weight. be askew 8 may handle like a sports car but it rides like a luxury car and a ray of drivers assistance systems take on some of the work and stress the

principal says are standard in the ask you a poor example of the pre-sent system which applies the brakes in an emergency situation. doubt social clowes concludes by asking who could have imagined just 10 or 15 years ago such a big heavy vehicle as you sports car and it actually drives like a sports and has sports car features an equipment you can cruise down the highway or thunder over country roads it's a car people can have fun but that fun comes at a price nearly 100000 euros for the basic model i don't want to tell it all oh and . making a splash on the big stage reveals its new baby in rotterdam. the

all electric mini cooper and this 0 emissions model has arranged between 235 and 270 kilometers and still has all the zip of a classic mini feeling great motor packs 135 kilowatts of power and delivers a maximum 270 new meters of torque the electric mini has been in the pipeline for a long time so why now. well cars some of them on this clearly there are now infrastructure is there in many markets so that's also why we are here for example for the global launch of the mini electric in rotterdam in the netherlands an example for markets where the infrastructure for electrification is at vons and therefore also the share of electrified vehicles is already quite significant so today the market is there the technology is also there so we can offer the right interior space. and

also a good electric range going hand in hand so that's why today the time is right for the mini electric. mini had already designed an electric model almost 10 years ago but it never made it to show ropes around 500 were built as part of minis pilot project to push forward with emissions free driving and development of the necessary infrastructure. even carried out trials with public charging stations in the u.s. and europe but the focus on practicality and user friendly niche. plus the many electric was always meant to be more than a call to be part of an electric ecosystem and that's why we have a lot of office in the $360.00 degree electric ecosystem that make it more than a call for example we have sharing the possibility. this week it was friends

and family and with that we also pay into the community aspect of the brand. the standard electric mini jumps from 0 to 60 kilometers an hour in around 4 seconds and shoot $100.00 in just over 7 seconds as is typical for an electric motor full torque is available right from the get go power is transmitted to the front wheels via a single stage transmission with integrated differential reaching the top speed of 150 kilometers an hour. having no gas or diesel engine to accommodate opened up a brand new scope for design. therefore we were able to focus on the tests like the grid so we do have still the hexagon out shape but due to the fact that there is not a combustion engine behind we need much less air so perfect is either meant for us it's almost close to just one for

a song for her as an air intake. the standard 3 door mini served as the basis for the electric model in fact when the company developed the latest version they already have an all electric variant in mind the high voltage batteries 12 modules are arranged in 18 shape underneath the floor between the french seats and under the rear seats without compromising on space inside the car the charging port is above the right rear wheel or the cap for gas or diesel is located in the standard 3 door many and of course there is no need for exhaust pipes on the electric model . the detail that is really important to us it's that we're so entirely new design that is from a technological part a few much more than the normal wheels so we do have inserts that improve the aerodynamics of the car lots. of fish. should see is the aim of at least 2 or 3 of

the 4 driving modes it also has what's known as the one titled feeling a typical trait of electric cars as soon as you lift your foot off the accelerator the car slows down the electric engine converts kinetic energy into electricity and feeds it back into the high voltage battery in sport mode the electric mini provides sharper responses and steering while many an electric go hand then hands because many is of course very urban electrification offers a false way to improve air quality in cities and many and electrification also very much fits driving. and many electric drives like the go carts you expect also need to be so it's a great combination and a big milestone for the b.m.w. groups electrification strategy. the b.m.w. group hopes to have $25.00 electric models on the market by 2023 the new mini

a permanent fixture at mercedes for over 15 years who have their so-called power domes on the hood give the eclipse coupe a an extra brownie appearance. some things never change like the flat roof line and the 2 doors typical of a coupe in. the spoiler integrated into the tailgate adds to the sporty look along with the chrome finish tailpipes. you know as demonstrates how the windows disappear into the body to make for a real open air feel there isn't even a pillar left in between and so you get a perfect all round view and there are flying just beautifully accentuated us. but a glance in the rearview mirror reveals one of the co-owners problems the size and position of the rear window makes it difficult to estimate the car's demesne. that

i mean this feels like she has to turn around to see how big the car reeling yes but there is a rear view camera to help with a new very. cool by what i was. testing viki $350.00 traditionally that name would suggest a 3 liter 6 cylinder engine which is still available for the equal as coupe de but not envisaged version this is a 2 liter 4 cylinder inline inch and with $220.00 kilowatts of power it's still pretty impressive out on the road it's sprints from 0 to 100 kilometers an hour in under 6 seconds. yet you know this points out the eclipses of various driving those including eco comfort and true sport which really are very sporty but they can drive consumption up to over 14 meters and that's a lot in he says eco mode is fine for everyday use the car can still go fast on the

autobahn it can get up to 200 kilometers an hour and. no problem. the interior is a charming blend of modern and traditional styling the instruments in infotainment system appear on a wide screen display and control via touch sensitive buttons on the steering wheel . figures of a 90 tronic automatic transmission can be shifted manually on the steering wheel. at night a 64 color ambient lighting system illuminates the interior. another highlight for anus is the wood which is of course a very classic material but it's used here in a very. anyway with

a silvery sheen and these lovely wavy lines she says everything looks and feels sumptuous. and he quit my package with various air quality settings and fragrances is also available. some people might find the plastic seat belt holders a bit of an eyesore in this otherwise luxury setting and indeed to be something of a contortionist to get in the back seat but once you're in there it's spacious enough. that he says not only is it a really fun car to drive it's also really comfortable on a long journey all the usual assistance systems expected these days keep the driver in the lame and at a safe distance from the vehicle in front she's also a big fan of the traffic sign recognition system which she finds very reliable because our even recognizes all lit up signs on construction sites and the little

carts on the roadside and i was talking about. like a coupon should always inspire some kind of emotion says yes and the eclipse does just that and if she could design her own she design it shuts like this she finds the colors outside and and very appealing and this car balances comfort and sportiness brilliantly although she personally prefers the comfort for long distances it has everything you need at it's great fun. once a year the duke of richmond charles gordon lennox opens the goodwood estate in southern england to the public this time around $200.00. 1000 people came from around the

a concept car for the lexus kelsey convertible and the paddock the finish production car is already driving laps in goodwood. the 1st of all those speeds main event is the hill climb in front of goodwood house pitting vehicles of various clashes against each other in a race against the clock after setting records on pikes peak in the united states and the nerve brings north loop volkswagens electric drive i.d.r. is going for another course record here. also while theme for the event this year is speaking brakes in most sports it was hope this whole weekend's all about breaking records so very appropriate that bites dog should be here embrace with the pikes peak. of the last year's attempts that we're very pleased with they've managed to do it and great for i must file because if i was driving to a break again today probably pushing a bit further away from my post wagon motors ford modified the i.d.r. . civically for the goodwood festival of speed his most recent incarnation weighs

appreciably less than it did when he set records on frank's peak and the nerves are great for the shill climb the team may do with a smaller battery optimized for better output that brought the weight of the new i.d.r. sprinter version down under 1000 kilograms. of course record for the 1.86 kilometer long track was set at 41.6 seconds in 1999 by the kite fest he drove a 780 horsepower mclaren m.p. for 13 formula one car powered by a gasoline engine that stood for 20 years but now almost has seen its by 1.7 sank driving the record powered racer to set a new no fun official record of 39.9 seconds.

the fee for well quite surprised you know because you can expect and i like they got to be flaws but those who go to not to go for this are going here and. they think not only falls but really really fast i say when you form a not so form by speed but they're good for this weekend i think it's again a next step those outs was very important because of how we came here to take the record we did it became a survey to win the race we did it so fantastic and what a fantastic prize giving. it's been probably one of the most the best events where i've ever been i'm for awesome means that where we're on the right way what's that thing about proving every time and. the cost to me can be good can be emotional can be sexy that was the point that we had to make and that's what we did. and well a new course record stand for another 20 years or only till next year's goodwood festival of speed. the bus.
