i'm sure that of us are. following welcome to drive with the d w motor magazine on this edition while a land rover experience tour through africa. electric the audi he transport back. and the new toyota c.h.r. . as this might be does about the artistry matter was she 1st glad to be testing

a car once more this time the toyota c h e r that stands recoup a high rider it's been on the road since 2016 so it was riding the s.u.v. coupe a wave before most of the others jumped in one after the other and it has since become a familiar sight in this segment so he sees this more as a spin with an old friend. the c h r's distinctive angular design seems to have found its fans this has been toyota's best selling model for the past 3 years so it's understandable that the car maker would be very reserved with the updates. a closer look reveals what's been updated about the front it's just a bit smoother. the graphics for the standard the headlights have also been redesigned. at 4 meters through. the 9 the length has remained the

same here to the door handles are seamlessly integrated into the c. pillars noticeable at the rear is the slightly thinner spoiler and the tail wag graphics have also been redesigned. by the manual recalls that given the choice of hybrid drive or against ilene engine for the previous e.h.r. version 90 percent of the buyers opted for the hybrid but among the other 10 percent were some who said hybrid may be nice and thrifty but it wasn't quite powerful enough for their taste toyota has started there and now alongside the old 1.8 leader hybrid engine they're offering a new 2 liter hybrid that has quite a bit more. noise in. the 112 kilowatt gasoline engine and the kilowatt electric motor on the from actual

add up to a system performance of 135 kilowatts that carry some new c h r from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour and 8.2 seconds and reaches a top speed of 180 kilometers per hour. that's what this would what a minimal appreciates most about this engine is it's thermally efficient today's average gasoline engine achieves about 30 percent thermal efficiency and a good diesel reaches some 35 percent but this engine operates had 40 percent or more he's impressed. at speeds under 120 kilometers per hour the c.h.r. can drive a few kilometers an all electric power by this president personally emanuel thinks it's cool that the center console has an indicator that shows to what percent he's driven an all electric power that is on the battery alone. he sees that he's at 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 drives from. 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 passengers. the trunk capacity has been reduced to 358 leaders still average for the 6. by mean for payment if you might almost sees that the infotainment display has remained the same size but now the controls are real but honestly which he prefers

over the earlier touch sensors they didn't give any tactile feedback so that you didn't always know where you were in the menu but with the proper button you press it and know right off what's happening. in addition the updated version of the infotainment system may be ordered with apple card play or android auto connectivity. by thoughts of the minimal assumption of his impression of the new c h a r admitting the 2 leader hybrid engine is wads of fun the design has been smoothed out a little but along with the new white graphics it still comes across as quite futuristic the only negative point he will mention would be that bad speeds above 120 kilometers per hour on the autobahn the wind noise was a bit too down. i'm on it inside for his taste but aside from that it's

a good. stuff. this year the ensign motor show welcome to nourish and tuning in to see is to its 52nd edition more than 500 exhibitors and over 300000 visitors had the opportunity to discuss the latest trends race cars collectibles and thoroughbred muscle cars were on display the golden rule here is there's no substitute for cubic inches. his mojo so 6 the s. and motor show is extremely important for the entire industry and interest in tuning is still extremely high that's why the fire is so important to us to the customer for a customer support and the entire consumer sector but also for synergies within the

industry and you need all the people you want to need to meet here make new contacts and talk about the coming year so the timing is perfect if if it is pretty gowns of. a major trend this year is suspensions it doesn't matter if we're talking about newer vehicles or those with a few miles on the odometer almost all have modified springs and shocks me no bar company is concentrating on this area stephan blumberg of no bar tells us whether it's a coil or air suspension if it's best. to keep it out of the car's low right height simply completes it transforms it and the lower it gets the more the look of the whole package changes he would say air suspension is the major trend because of the range you can set with it if you want to stand out from the crowd and simply were. it's much better with an air

suspension it remains suitable for every day driving because you also have a normal right 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 public can experience 1st hand. as it sends a 5 piece or subtle colors flak quite silver champagne in great 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 that the designer gave the vehicle tuners i try to optimize and not destroy the design cues to make it better that often blinds in hidden details the layman may not notice at all but the kind of sewer caesar right away that's customized and that's been modified like.

this 975 volvo type 247 sports the fitting name sweeper because you can only see its 2 parts by looking under the hood. of the buick riviera ridge tile is different and above all i can sure it was put together over the course of 18 years using parts from different models the individual paint by get 2007 european champion of custom painters makes the car a work of art. another work of art on 4 wheels is the goldfinger rolls royce by michelle fischer it is presented in a complete james bond book the base vehicles in 1970 silver shadow 2.

this lamborghini juris is the complete opposite visually making its owner proud. what he really likes is that it's kept relatively discreet thank goodness it's black because otherwise it would probably be even more extreme but it's very well done i'm nice modifications good tuning this too and. on the 500th anniversary of leonardo da vinci's death intel design debuted and i went trick for c gran turismo name davinci the car can accommodate 2 electric motors with a battery pack in the floor of the dash has 3 monitors one of which is for the instruments. who knows what leonardo da vinci himself would have thought of the s. and motor show though he may have been flattered by the division.

that each run presented in late 2018 was out he's 1st of all electric powered vehicles. now a 2nd electric model is hitting the market another s.u.v. but this time with coop a body contours output peaks at $300.00 kilowatts with the transport back achieving a range of up to 446 kilometers 561 newton meters are available from the get go and sheering a superior feeling of acceleration in over boost mode there are 664 newton meters on tap. forward of the b. pillar the electric sport back is similar to an sr model the rear bumper and taillights are also the same the tailgate and sloping roof line are what's new giving the v a. a distinctive look. virtual side mirrors are already familiar for me tron are

also available for the sport back wing shapes supports reduced drag cameras feed into small displays in the doors out easy ends when i close tells us more. mentally the roofline gives the vehicle a significant aerodynamic advantage but it has a drag coefficient of point $25.00 that gives us around 10 kilometers more range. variable slants on the radiator grille improve the aerodynamics as well. in addition the brake friction was reduced allowing the vehicle to coast more easily the front motor can be completely uncoupled so it consumes no energy when not in use this helps gain an additional 10 kilometers of range the cooling system has also been optimized one pump instead of 2 saving weight space and money

a definite plus for efficiency. but when it comes to energy recovery many customers have said they didn't really feel it especially when they wanted to one pedal feeling we now have 30 percent more a driver can sense more easily when the vehicle applies the brakes or they can decide their driving style using just one pedal venom of. the batteries alone way some $700.00 kilos with a total vehicle weight of just under $2.00 tons like the tron the transport back can also charge using $150.00 kilowatts direct current over extended periods and not just at peak times the batteries can be recharged from 5 to 80 percent and 30 minutes using a home while box the batteries can be fully recharged in 8 hours. the batteries

will rarely be completely drained in dealing use making regular charging times a lot shorter the day will usually begin with a full charge. we will also be offering an entry level model 15 for the sport back and the. one each run 50 will have a battery capacity of $72.00 kilowatts. so you can drive 340 kilometers in it but you know that has a clear price advantage over this model making it a very attractive offer for people who don't need the complete range to complete the. part of the report. everyone can choose the car best suited to their personal needs the audi he transported back 50 quatro starts at 71350 euros in germany electric cars yes but one question remains does it have to be such a big expensive as u.v.

we're ality small electric cars at affordable prices. that that one thought about this is the 4th generation monster 3 i could assign has been developed further deliberately avoided sharp corners and contours he thinks this makes the must a very elegant like a today he wants to see what else the loss of 3 has to offer. let's start with a design striking proportions with a long flat front and sleek sides give the mazda a sporty look 3 dimensional flank 6 inch await the wheel arches and wheels contributing for the most of 3 lower flatter look the taillights have for round alley nice depending on the chose not. to give the 5 door hatchback. a modern

look. the carmaker offers the muster 3 with an advanced to leader sky active jean gasoline engine or a newly developed $1.00 leaders sky active diesel a new mild hybrid system a standard in the mazda 3 to support either engine during acceleration and save fuel. the most a 3 handling is pleasant and relaxed you hardly hear any outside noise the 6 speed manual transmission is precise and direct as is the steering you could almost say of sporty the engine which is 90 kilowatts of power that doesn't leave him with a lasting impression it's not as dynamic as you might expect when you 1st lay eyes on this musta. we're testing the 2 leaders sky active gasoline engine with 90 kilowatts on put 0 to 100 kilometers per hour and 10.4 seconds top speed is

197 kilometers per hour the entry level price in germany is 23290 or ups. him. for the interior of the car maker continued the less is more ideal from the exterior design all the controls are neatly arranged for the driver the buttons are easy for the driver to reach for making the car intuitive and easy to use by somebody in. the switches on the steering wheel add to a luxurious feel. the 8.8 inch infotainment system in the center console is operated using a rotary push dial of course smartphones can be connected to the vehicle p.s. apple car play or android auto.

the japanese carmaker has succeeded in making the 4th generation must have 3 even more stylish and beautiful it is a very relaxed and comfortable right the only thing lewis might wish for now following the example of other makers would be a sporty or version of the mazda 3. with a sky active ensure that is clearly focusing more on fuel efficiency and being as environmentally friendly as possible. unforgettable good times and lots of challenges that was the 2001000 land rover experience tour. this year the off road tour started in namibia and finished in the . conservation area the world's largest cross border nature reserve it

stretches across angola. let me be at. zimbabwe in southern africa. instructor stephan our describes the route is 200 kilometers straight ahead but the nasty chuckle but each game for a few surprises. the instructor leads the way and the participants among them are 6 team mates from germany and switzerland. they were chosen from around 2000 applicants in 6 regional qualifying camps around germany in the final event they faced a series of challenges both mental and physical to test their skills and ability to function in teams the tasks included questions about the countries and people they

would meet navigation problems and other special. fasts. yes he says and i like that he makes different seeing calls it a highlight of his life the moment he was informed he'd been chosen for the tour kept him riding high for quite a while virtually the whole year up to the start of the tour and he still watches the videos quite often he sure will keep the feeling all his life. says a letter from. that 520000 square kilometers the conservation area is bigger than germany austria and switzerland put together when heading into stretches of extra deep sand the teams let some air out of their tires but that's a precaution not a guarantee that the car will make it through with no problems. if it were a guarantee it wouldn't be an adventure this discovery is unlucky it can't get free

of a stand without help and teamwork fortunately they have the right tools on hand for the job. their teammates also experienced the other extremes of nature during their 14 day tour i heve cloudburst leaves everything drenched conditions like these put the vehicles off the road capability to the test and occasionally a tire to doesn't make the great. sleeping in a tent while thunder and lightning rage can pose a mortal danger so this time the teams will have to seek the safety of civilization auxilary headlights come in handy. the next day feeling

refreshed and well rested the teams cross a border. the wildlife in this multinational conservation area can move freely across french years but people have to deal with lots of paperwork. the next stop is the national park there's no shortage of wildlife to watch here the animals are accustomed to cars and have lost whatever fear they ever had of. their teams have overcome numerous demanding stretches now they crushed the steps with special care and attention and enjoy the and lasciviousness. you they tell me in front of

a deed to enter to make go into the park the greater the variety of species she's impressed by the panorama across the river the herds of zebras and pollen water buffalo she's not used to the sheer mass is a wildlife on the hoof right there. about 250000 elephants live in the coven go some daisy conservation area the world's largest contingents population a package or. she's so statements carolyn 2 is enormously impressed to be standing just 20 meters away from the elephants in the midst of a herd of buffalo she feels overwhelmed that she never thought they'd get so close up to the wildlife she wasn't expecting this.

can hardly find words for the incredible beauty here to the actual emotional noting the animals running around free shit and he's thrilled at the animals that are here in such vast numbers he realizes the need to protect all this and to respect if they are after all wild animals is it going to be he's also enchanted by the country shut off and how some will even leader beautiful it is. obviously this journey will leave its mark on both the hard stuff and minds of the participants. the teams have all mastered the routines by the time they pitched camp for the last time surrounded by nature those sleep to the sounds of the wild life.

after 2 weeks in the bush it's very hard for them to take leave of each other. hopeful for the fog and left the sun looking for a cure when it was an indescribable experience sure remembered forever very exciting and thrilling and the thing about among those team drove to more than 200 kilometers through deep sand and mud so i'm past wild animals. it's time to hold our issues and it's and let's give it says they've come together as a crank team in the past 3 weeks like one big family the participants the crews and everyone on sci fi you know experienced a pinch me moment every day she can think i know they can top this book the surprises kept coming and then something even better she simply had the best time of her life.

the next time i drive it from the snow. and in the desert sands in the sea i had to rock out. to. test drive in a super sports car the mclaren 600 l g. come

tonight. it's an explosive mix. in my. canadian folk palm beach german. club. we present a strong balance from toronto and a foreign. minister.
