Been here car to stick 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 didnt have to pedal the new audi s. Q. A. To get up here to 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 x. Badge on it sports models but this is a good sized s. U. V. Can it really deliver what wed expect from a true s. Model. But i dont 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 theyre offering more agility and this one the eschewing and sporting as to the question if hes going to say if it adds up i thought this guy had already told my mother. And terms of performance the is q. H. 320. 00 kilowatts definitely qualify as a sports car at least from 0 to 100 Kilometers Per Hour inches 4. 8 seconds. Of his own 4 doesnt come from a gasoline engine but from a turbo charged to be a diesel the only engine available for the eschewing. The madden i think close who wonders why only chose to put a diesel in the s. Q. L. The engineers must have known what theyre doing diesels are powerful this one achieves 435 horsepower and 900 meters of torque how do you reach fuel consumption at less than 8 leaders per 100 kilometer klaus used a bit less than 9 leaders but he kept his foot on the gas v 8 engine has 4 leaders displacement off the top speed is capped at 250 Kilometers Per Hour on the highway its fast 0100 kilometer per hour sprint makes it easy to forget this car waste 2. 00 times. All that power comes to the road through an inch speed tiptronic got a many transmission working without a hitch to make sure the s. Q. 8 has enough thrust available at every river ainge out to give it to turbochargers one for the lower range and one for the upper. But not well close steps on the gas he gets anybody in response in the lower reverential plenty of pickup in the upper one there is yet another smaller electronically driven turbo charge of a gives the saudi is a mild hybrid system that is 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 to do but in the name and in more torque one time on the lets say im. Still not all the i am assured me that i dont want to look to still interested. Q. A. Drivers might briere really go off road but when they do the 25 centimeters clearance is nice to have. On the outside the s. Q. It stands out from its known as siblings primarily by the sporty design of his bumpers. B l e v headlights are standard as an option they can be replaced with matrix and we get headlights. Toward the rear the roofline team version near ku trade body style and the quad exhaust tips make for a striking conclusion. To me interior has no shortage of shiny trim or occasion to polish it clean but at least the result has a high quality ambience. The stored seats are standard but klaus is nestled into the optional as seats with even better lateral support to. The 605 metres of cargo space extends to a maximum 1755 liters. But its not too close hardly needs to mention this and skewing has always held right and its electronically controlled in addition roll stability control can be ordered to electronic stabilizers one in front i wanted back keep the car from rolling excessively encourages these are fitted with electric motors that its 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 sure enough she says not only do they look nice they also 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 hadley 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 match moment of inertia. Close to surprise at how incredibly agile the s. U. V. Seems kind of hard change as im direction he believes its 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 these 2 stabilizers noticeably reduce the subject you have the feeling that the weight will. Be askew 8 may handle like a sports car but it writes 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 eschewing for example the present system which applies the brakes in an emergency situation. The out social clubs concludes by asking who could have imagined just 10 or 15 years ago such a big heavy vehicle as a sports car and it actually drives like a sports car and has sports car features and equipment you can cruise down the highway or the founder over country road its a car people can have fun with it but that fun comes at a price nearly 100000 euros for the basic model i dont want to tell. Making. The splash of 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 the electric 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 because some of the mountainous clearly there are now infrastructure is there in many markets so thats also why we are here for example the global launch of the mini electric. Dam in the netherlands an example of a 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 their right interior space. And also a good electric range going hand in hand so thats why today the time is right for the many electric. Mini pad already designed in the electric model chain years ago but it never made it to show ropes around 500 were built as part of minis Pilot Project to push forwards 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 friendliness. Cost them in electric was always cemented to be more than a cost to be part of an electrically chrysostom and thats why we have a lot of us in this 360. 00 degree electric. Ecosystem that make it more than a call for example we have here took a call sharing the possibility of this week live with 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 to 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 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 but its almost closed at just one horizontal bar 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 the 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 churching 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 theres no need for exhaust pipes on the electric motor. Another the detail of that is really important to us its that were so entirely new design that is from a technological part of fuel much more modern than normal we. So we do have inserts that improve the aerodynamics of. A fish and c. N. C. Game of at least for 3 of the 4 driving modes it also has whats known as the one pedal 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 many provide sharper responses and steering while many an electric go hand in hand 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. Many electric drives like the go cart you expect also may need to be so its 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 cooper and she will be produced at the mini plant oxford in the u. K. It will start rolling off the production lines there in november 2019 a long shot the conventional models prices for this classic british car with modern electric drive technology all started 32500 euros in germany playing. New son unveils a facelift for its g. T. Arnis bose super sports car using carbon porches reduce the weight of this 441 kilowatt bullet by 30 kilograms you can hit at top speed of over 300 kilometers an hour and shoot from 0 to 100. 00 in under 3 seconds the bad news is for. A slave has upped the price tag 525000 euros to just under 210000. B. M. W. Presents the vision next this concept hybrid is a glimpse of things to come in the future sports cars the driver and the car almost merge into one controls and indeed it appear in 3 displays within the drivers direct field of vision 441. 00 kilowatts of power can with the card to a top speed of 300 kilometers an hour on all electric drive it has a range of 100 kilometers. The card says that he has patriot considers the mercedes a class a standard among the coupe a house and black suits that classic look perfectly but wait is that black. When the light falls on it just right it actually appears dark green. The color is in fact called Emerald Green metallic who pays have been a permanent fixture at mercedes for over 15 years 2 of their socalled power dogs on the hood. Who pay an extra brownie appearance. Some things never change like the flat roof line and the 2 doors typical of a cooper in. The spoiler integrated into the tailgate adds to the sporty look along with the chrome finish tailpipes. You know demonstrates how the windows disappear into the body to make for a real open air feel there isnt even a pillar left in between so you get a perfect all round view and they were flying just beautifully accentuate us. But a glance in the Rearview Mirror reveals one of the. Connors problems the size and position of the rear window makes it difficult to estimate the cars dimensions. That money just feels like she has to turn around to see how big the car reeling yes but there is a rear mounted camera to help with maneuvering. By what i was. Testing v e 350 traditionally that name would suggest a 3 liter 6 cylinder engine which is Still Available for the classic who play but not envisaged version this is a 2 liter 4 cylinder inline inch and with 220. 00 kilowatts of power its still pretty impressive out on the road it springs from 0 to 100 kilometers an hour in under 6 seconds. Yet you miss points out the eclipses various driving including eco comfort and 2 sport modes which really are very sporty but they can drive consumption up to over 4 teenagers and thats a lot you know says equal mode is fine for everyday use a car can still go fast on the autobahn you can get up to 200 kilometers an hour and. No problem. The interior is a charming blend of modern and traditional style links the instruments and infotainment system appear on a wide screen display and control via touch sensitive buttons on the steering wheel. The gears of a 90 tronic automatic transmission can be shifted manually on the steering wheel. At night a 64 color ambient lighting system the interior. And thats another highlight. And freeness is the wood which is of course a very classic material but its used here in a very modern way with a silvery sheen and these lovely wavy lines she says everything looks and feels sumptuous. And equipment packaged 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 need to be something of a contortionist to get in the back seat but once youre in there its spacious enough. That it is says not only is it a really fun car to drive its also really comfortable on long journey all the usual assistance systems expect stays keep the driver in the lane and at a safe distance from the vehicle in front shes 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. A companion should always inspire some kind of emotion says yes and he clasped does just that and if she could design her own she design it just like this she finds the colors outside 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 its 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 200000 people came from around the world for the festival of speed one of the most eccentric automotive events there it is a some abrasion of motors ford was some of the most spectacular sports cars ever built.

Now the exhaust pipes exit on the sides and front of the rear wheel so that saves weight and helps the aerodynamics when making room for a larger diffuser at the rear as per the original power rating the 911 are. Shard she has 515 horsepower its debut is due for the fia w. E. C. Season starts consumer stone early in september. Toyota also has a stand here presenting its latest supra due to good showroom floors before summers out.
