W. Is traveling so in the catchwords are always on updates over the year connected services activated and partially automated driving the young ones did try it out in these and then a. Beam me up. The range of technical changes may be why but the facade slow case changed a little. Up front the face lifted very slightly. And a pair of redesigned headlights. And back. Has been moved to the middle of the. Trim has also been reworked as have the tail lights. Young says the percentage cant beat him up yet but the interior is packed with digital bells and whistles that kind of assurance will instantly notice the analog clock is gone and doesnt fit in the bright new Digital World but yet is focusing on the mit 3 every precise now comes equipped with a sim card so the car is always online and that brings a whole range of advantages the cars system can be updated wirelessly like a smartphone and the vehicle can also receive traffic updates in real time speech recognition is intuitive so you dont have to use standardized commands but can just talk to the car. He demonstrates telling the person that hes hungry and it replies by providing a list of restaurants in the area and asking him to choose one young decides its time for a quick bite. Although the Modular Infotainment system is new the v. W. Engineers didnt touch the cockpits fundamental structure customers do however now have a wider range of a post tree and trim colors to choose from. Along with the m i b 3 b. W. Has also done a lot to its collection of dr vs systems which are now consolidated under the name i. Q. Drive a new app is the travel this is system which allows level to other maybe driving a fully autonomys car where passengers dont have to do a thing but sit back and relax would be classified as level 5. Like beaming says yeah but thats still quite a way down the road a new push has level 2 autonomy the system can take over steering but the driver still responsible for what the car does and is required to monitor. And the system and take control when necessary the travel has this system is activated via a button on the Steering Wheel after pressing it the percent begins following the lane and automatically braking when traffic is approaching a speed limit change or an intersection or action is coming up says he afterwards it accelerates again to an appropriate speed. The system has a speed range of 0 to 210 kilometers an hour and works on highways and country roads all the car uses radar to measure distances and cameras to track lane markings the travel assist also has access to navigational data and road sign david as a counterweight so control strategy. It works fine as long as the capacity of steering senses the drivers hands on the wheel. And as its been hit my own says that hes someone who easily gets enthusiastic about technical developments and the system functions very well but he also likes driving himself and has to admit that in the course of the day when he turned on the travel assist system he was much more tense than when he was in control thats because you have to keep an eye on the system all the time he says and. Even by my best this team you know. Most wagon has also worked over the adaptive Suspension System and shock absorbers along with the standard comfort normal in sports settings you can no fine tune the driving experience by choosing from a range of 15 intermediate sending. Folks talking about john says volkswagen has never been a pioneer when it comes to installing new technology in his come. Cars other manufactures adopt it more quickly but when we w. Does install it he says i and the systems will generally function very well in our intuitive to use and thats the case with the new plays out as well which has now caught up with the times with the addition of the mit 3 and travel this this is stops. This is the b. M. W. 430 i converted the bavarian car maker launched the 4 series in 2013 as a successor to the more luxurious 3 series and its been a resounding success more than 400000 of them have been sold worldwide since now alongside the coupe a and brand can pay models the convertible is meant to draw even more customers to a brand known for its good handling but it also weighs 225 kilograms more than its cousins will it live up to the image. Of a car to stimulus couple says that despite its 1900 kilograms the convertible is quite sporty you notice the extra weight in curves of course but it doesnt particularly bother him. The convertible resembles the rest of the series closely though it has been given l e v twin headlights and fog lights on the front skirting has also been all. The models one good makes the b. M. W. Look both dynamic and elegant and the snapper rocks blue paint job on this car makes it even snazzier though buyers would have to shell out the 100. 00 euros for the extra standard for the lecture line include chrome highlights on the body which give the 430. 00. I find when jury is free if b. M. W. Is hallmarked l. Shaped l e d taillights complete the picture in fact. It takes at least 20 seconds to open or close the section to our top roof. Thanks to the reworked improved variable sports steering the b. M. W. Takes corners and curves of the greatest a nice. Size to do a sound check. For the 2 leader 4 cylinder twin turbo engine puts out 185. 00 kilowatts of power and tops out at 350. 00 newton metres of torque it can hit 100 kilometers an hour from a standstill and 6. 3 seconds its top speed is 250 kilometers an hour. But lewis is impressed by the sound design behind the 4 cylinder engine and he thinks it will appeal to people who like sports cars one disadvantage of fooling hard tops compared to soft tops is the added weight opening and closing one also takes longer and in the 4th 30 i. E. You cant be moving faster than 18 kilometers an hour and with the top down cargo volume in the convertibles already small. Trunk drops even further from 370 leaders to 220 thats a reason why b. M. W. Will probably opt for a soft top again in the models next generation. Optics luiss the 430. 00 i has convinced him and that it bridges the gap between sportiness in comfort and feel safe in the curves even when you push it he says but its an experience youll have to pay for. The 430 i convertible started selling at 60000 euros in germany and the cheapest version before 20 guy is just 10000 less. The 7th generation alexis c. S. Has been out since the spring of 2018 this stylish japanese midsize sedan is a familiar sight in many parts of the world its a bit more rare in europe where it only debuted in 2019 to compete with the audi a 6 b. M. W. s 5 series and the mercedes e. Class but only the hybrid version is available here. The funky what interest card testing is patriot about the newcomers for one the design but also whats new about the technology that she starts on the outside of. A grip on the door handle unlocks it without a key the right touch in the right place watch it again. Has a lot to inas thats consistent with top of the line much. Inside vs is neatly arranged controls seem fairly straightforward with a sleek less is more design. The finally word to lou and im trim running around the interior was inspired by traditional japanese swords the engine starts at the press of a but. Very little can be seen of its hybrid character aside from the green ready light that indicates all systems are go in the car. My car was amos calls up a screen on the 12. 00 inch multifunction display that shows each individual component as well as the energy flow past it. Ok the im still she can select the various menu items on this touch sensitive trackpad the cursor not only jumps to the next item on its own but gives both audible and happy core tangible feedback i want she says thats cool but if you have to enter a long street name you have to drag the cursor all over the place to pick out each letter. Like siskins the 300. 00 each its latest generation hybrid drive it combines a new 2 and a half meter gasoline engine with a more compact yes more powerful electric motor new transmission and a new battery the whole system together puts out 160. 00 kilowatts new hybrid system controller delivers a more even acceleration much like with a conventional engine short stretches can be covered at low speed some all electric drive. I just proof its out of another fee chain is described as me cool is the push button change of alignment over the central digital trail and move it to the right to make a little more space to the left eye thats very convenient when you want to see displays for the drivers insists they appear to the left of a dial. That is not of actually in his had already seen this feature in the r. C. F. But here its another touch of 1st class lecture from. The dynamic radar Cruise Control in tandem with the lane keeping assist make for a nearly out of me to driver support the car just sit speed to the vehicle immediately ahead even figuring in a sudden stop and independent accelerations little timidly. How the vehicle remains with the driver. Moving back outside d. E. s the contour seemed to flow back from the groom across the car above and below the l. E. D.

The newly yes as 5 centimeters to the wheel base the roofline teper soft to the rear like on a coupe paying the badly designed to require facts the space inside theres plenty of leg room but taller occupants might feel a bit squeezed above. The taillights to wrap gracefully around the rear corners. Its a snap to unlock and open the trunk remote way because the batteries have shrunk and are now placed under the rear seats theres 454 liters of cargo space back here but they cant be expanded as the rear seat backs cant be lowered. To mrs ted scar has the f. 4 trim like its highlights or sporty accents on the body and in the interior it also includes to hedge her driving loads in addition to the normal and eco setting. Out there even if says the sport and sport plus modes can be selected via this control and that if you activate them the gas pedal grows much more responsive as does the steering. She adds that the Paddle Shifters on the Steering Wheel. I why even take control of shifting if you want to thank you alexandra. And all sides. So whats the bottom. Line is says the design of the e s. Ince terrific and she has to say that she almost prefers the exterior to the interior because it has such beautiful lines and the export hybrid that she tested has plenty of juice she says but it isnt really the car for you if you like to put the pedal to the metal because it has a top speed of only 180 kilometers an hour.
