Them into our car to streamline washee for is at the forty fifth tokyo motor show in japan most of the exhibitors here and asian manufacturers he says presenting their new concepts and ideas by German Companies also come here to display products because the japanese market is one of the biggest and most important in the world. Swag and porsche and ill pina are among the german brands but toyota is one of the Main Attractions they have several new concept cars to present. The concept i see resist toyotas vision of future mobility it uses an Artificial Intelligence system to recognize the emotions of the passengers and the attention level of the driver so it can react accordingly if a driver is distracted in a dangerous situation the car intervenes and switches into automatic driving. Around concept is a little closer to actual production he continues a legacy of toyota crown cars the comfort model is the most popular taxi vehicle in tokyo the concept car uses connect technology to share and receive traffic information to help ease the flow on the roads. I designed by thomas shell bag a toyota thinks the car makes a strong impression at five meters thirty long it comes as a twelve cylinder model and a half but thats only for the likes of the japanese emperor about this because there are smaller engines which are still very impressive in time and it only comes in one equipment line and it has all the lecture you can possibly imagine adding to his name of the thing im so its not a foster home. A bit less work curious but far more efficient the toyota fuel cell bus which will be out on the streets of tokyo next year and also this is one car thats really made an impression on our current tester is the mazda kind of concept he just hopes it goes in a Series Production like this. The compact model is a nod to whats to come in the new generation of mazda cars among other features they have the new sky active x. Technology installed under the hood. Its not really you know one mans ego from us this is this concept car couldnt go into production exactly as it is but the basic design of proportions would be transferable to a production vehicle in the calm. Pack segment as would features like the op said drivers compartment which is typical of most as cotto design philosophy. Even more futuristic the mazda vision kupang the name is an homage to the elegance of classic coupe a models like the mazda r three sixty the brands first ever car and the rotary powered mazda loose also known as the r one thirty.

A few quirky creations also made an appearance like this micro kitchen car from takayama its a fitted kitchen on wheels perfect as a mobile snack then when youre done with work and ready to drive the car slides together along rails the biggest advantage is its compact size. Intentionally minimal things the Technology Side of fuel cells electric cars and hybrids is sometimes seen as a little dull but car makers here are shown and it doesnt have to be for one was fascinated by the tokyo motor show me twenty seventeen i dont think.

And a ford fiesta cost pretty much what youd expect to pay for a small car that shows as the base price for a ford fiesta is just under thirteen thousand euros whereas the s. T. Line starts at seventy thousand eight hundred thats almost five thousand euros more and shes not sure the s. T. Lines equipment is worth that much to her. Players must decide whether the s. T.

V. Rock from its brother the audi q two which it otherwise resembles from the sign the surrounding plastic paneling also emphasizes the off road look and suggests it has under ride protection. The only detail lights in seemingly integrated exhaust trims have a modern but unremarkable in fact.

Little with mud one thing is clear klaus sums up nowadays almost one in three new cars sold is an s. U. V. Or crossover and that means cars like this where there are large or small that will be the dominant side on the road in a few years. One car just im going to my mind was a hip hop fan back in around the year two thousand and any rap singer worth his salt had to have a cadillac escalate and thats what andre is testing today. And i automatically step ladder makes it easy to get in. A modern ignition but it seems an odd contrast to the Old Fashioned shift lever on the steering column from the outside theres no mistaking the impression the escalate intense get out my way im important the brutally angular appearance almost demands attention and is the Perfect Choice for a rap artist looking to turn it. Off come on he says the six point two leader v eight engine can really get the escalator moving but most people prefer to take this colossus out for a more leisurely cruise before. The suspension provides plenty of comfort despite the cars huge wheels and with andre notes that the shock absorbers on the rear axle dont match those on the front axle to the rear is a bit bumpy gunsmiths another problem is the brakes which are a bit weak for the size of the wheels and the overall weight of the vehicle to defend your really have to trump on them seems you wanted to means and yet. The escalating ways all of two point seven tons that weight plus the huge engine means the escalated one win any prizes for fuel efficiency but a cylinder deactivation system does bring an average fuel consumption down to twelve point six leaders per one hundred kilometers artist car has a six figure price tag. The escalators exteriors rather bombastic the only decent head lamps are mounted in crystal lenses. The shorter model is five meters eighteen long and more than two metres wide. And inside in the two thousand and says andre people customize their s. U. V. S with huge wheel ramps today a big twenty two inch rams are standard on the escalate had to find sponsors to loft and escalate. Underaged recalls how rappers installed huge. Hi fi systems and lots of monitors in their cars a monitor in their rear view mirror is now standard in the cadillac but a self respecting rapper would now ask where he could plug in his game console. The monitors are installed in the backs of the front seats so passengers can watch films. Be interior has some features you dont immediately see for example the sound system as active Noise Cancellation to minimize road noise and the escalators controls use touch sensitive surfaces instead of buttons. That month on top of me system kit and driving the cadillac escalate andre understands why fifty cent mike tysons mansion where else would there be enough room to park his fortress on wheels does a festival fit on pocket count. Of course you can find a parking spot for the escalator even in germany if you have enough time and patience once you find a space large enough parking sensors are weird view camera and a three hundred sixty degree camera help you maneuver into the slot and if thats too much trouble you can have the car Parallel Park itself automatically. Cadillacs will remain an exotic site on german roads for the near future says andre the Company Sells only a few thousand cars a year and all of europe. Escalate is an important car of the carmakers strategy to expand sales in europe often under i says he knows of no other s. U. V. That swaggers as much or been any better car to enjoy rap music it has meant they might not just because of the image but also of those sound system on donkey images on pause a sound and audio besa rep on con. But they escalate as more for successful music producers than young rap fans even the basic model costs ninety nine thousand euros in germany a price they guarantees exclusivity. In the early one nine hundred sixty s. Europe was experiencing a baby boom renault boss Pierre Dreyfus responded with the development of a radically new interior design for a midsized car. In misleading a car tester christe of our recalls would drive us announce to his team weve got to see things in a new light a car cannot always consists of four seats a hood and a trunk weve got to see it as a single space the result was the one nine hundred sixty one renault are for a revolutionary an innovative compact car and like the one nine hundred sixty five renault launched the are sixteen a midsize family car with a hatchback a large trunk lid and flexible interior and a defined meeting. During the design process the engineers had almost total freedom the only requirement was a front wheel drive and just four years the newly established billboard to style progressed from a prototype to a Production Model are sixteen and built a new Production Facility and send a viewer near the hons. Yes kristen says when the are sixteen was launched the media was impressed they praised the car as a benchmark and symbol of practicality and held it up that he has a challenge to german engineering even today a car is still a smooth and comfortable ride home for granted the steering is a bit squishy and going around curves can be nerve wracking but overall this is a great set of wheels off to stand up and cause and dance and i know what about us guys get fit. And so the renault are sixteen became an International Hit and initially sales figures doubled year by year by one nine hundred seventy two seven years later renault has sold over one million cars sixteenths. Renault kept producing the car until one nine hundred eighty continually developing new versions including a lecture e t x model with over ninety horsepower electric windows and five speed manual transmission. Eyes open mind system christopher says the are sixteen has a unique design that two box design is a particular feature it broke with a conventional design at the time where vehicles were divided into three boxes the engine in front of the passenger compartment and the trunk and back if august. And contrast the are sixteen a fuse the passenger and trunk space allowing for a flexible interior with up to seven different variations its zero zero vance one smokers cuts at the top. Theres the socalled normal position for when youre just driving out of it. And the trunk support accepts you know position for transporting a large items the back seat can be folded away entirely then theres a push this young lady to relax. As well as the cruise ships position for sleeping and cuddling. Back then there are no sixteen had one of the most spacious and. Comfortable interiors of any midsize car need features like the continuous ventilation grill and a classy ashtray express a typically french charm. Another clever feature metal rails along the flared pagoda roof they provide stability and function as role bars oddly the torsion bar suspensions were installed one behind the other making the wheel base six centimeters longer on the left side than on the right. That is a motor car tester kristoff says there we have it that a spare tire as well as a redesigned one point leader four cylinder engine with fifty five always boller in the front of the engine block cylinder head and the gears are made from a lightweight disc i will medium alloy wheels and i like to achieve better balance the gears are located ahead of the front axle while the engine sits behind far more typical of modern sports cars so the renault was actually more to the head of its kind of wealth imo downspout talking football to one was an outside and disinfo house. And this aracely melodic sound is quite in chanting. The apathy increased feels the are sixteen stands for the famous french lifestyle a bit eccentric but very likeable and easygoing. Road bombs that would support a public that but are sixteen suspension smoothes them right over half of it too lazy to change gears you can go forty Kilometers Per Hour or faster and just third or fourth gear at them and the seats are as soft as a sofa. Helpful as overall a pretty relaxing right. We are sixty. And really lives up to renaults old cars for life slogan it can be customized according to every owners special wishes until this day we know has a reputation for building great family cars and laid the groundwork for this with a one nine hundred sixty five are sixty that who knows a thing of crystal reckons renault built the right car at the right time it was produced for fifteen years from the mid one nine hundred sixty s. Until one thousand nine hundred eighty an impressive record as the first midsize Sedan Hatchback with a large trunk lid and collectible interior its set the standard for midsize sedan as such they are sixteen is a milestone and automotive history will be shifted. Over all one point eight million are sixteens were built but very few models are still in Good Condition today owners took were no slogan quite literally and drove their cars hard if you are sixteens were sent in for repairs or to the car wash for that matter as a result many gradually wore out over time. And next time on drive the World Premiere of audis a seven sport back. And hyundais compact issue v. The tucson.
