driven an all electric power that is on the battery alone. he sees that he's had 45 percent and that motivates him to try for even higher percentages that should be hard to go to states that in typical urban stop and go traffic this c.a.g.r. can even reach up to 80 percent on all electric drive. the interior has kept the familiar and easy to operate cockpit layout. the c.h.r. spaciousness hasn't changed much either plenty of room in front but in back it might be something of a tight fit for taller passenger. the trunk capacity has been reduced to 358 leaders still average for the 6. by me for payment in madame o.c.s.

1:38 am
to stand out from the crowd that is simply works much better with an air suspension it remains suitable for everyday driving because you also have a normal ride height and for show purposes you also use this setting lowered to 0 so to speak. in addition to the suspension there are other current trends at the fair the. probably can experience 1st hand. is it sent to fight these are subtle colors flak white silver champagne and gray tones are very very trendy along the same general line is discreet tuning the days of polling doors under floor lighting and color changing in the sun are actually over today the tuner tries to mimic the wind of the designer gave the vehicle tuners i try to optimize and not destroy the design cues to make it better and often blinds in hidden details the layman may not notice at all but the kind of
