LEXUS UX 300E: ALL THE DETAILS OF THE FIRST ELECTRIC OF THE BRAND

Lexus has already taken the most important step towards an electrified future because it has just launched its first model with this type of propulsion system. He does it after presenting the Lexus LF-30 Electrified Concept prototype a few weeks ago, the vision they have of their electric by 2030. But there is still a decade left for that, so for now we will have to keep the Lexus UX 300e, the Electric version of this small SUV.

The truth is that it was the most logical movement, taking advantage of a copy seated on the GA-C platform, which stands out for its modularity. In fact, it has not been too difficult to incorporate a new electrical mechanic in the front axle instead of the 250h hybrid propulsion system (which we tested recently). This is the top of the range thanks to its 204 hp and 300 Nm of torque, which leave behind the 184 hp that the hybrid achieved.

VOLKSWAGEN WILL REDUCE ITS OFFER OF MINIVANS IN FAVOR OF SUVS

Most car manufacturers are very focused on the sale of SUVs and crossovers, which are the most demanded bodies today. That is also affecting their ranges, seeing how the supply of other bodies is reduced. Some of the most affected have been the coupes or convertibles, but they are not the only ones. Now Volkswagen is considering removing some minivans to reduce production costs.

SUV. To summarize, some withdrew like the Volkswagen Beetle, the Scirocco, the Phaeton or the Eos. At the same time, they launched others such as the Volkswagen T-Roc or the T-Cross, which joined the crossover range alongside the Tiguan and Touareg. The next thing that is in view are the minivans.

SUPER CROSSOVER LISTER STEALTH: NOT A RECORD, BUT DEVILISH – 666 HP!

The British company Lister Motor Company, engaged in the release of replicas of classic Jaguar sports models and tuning modern ones, has presented the Stealth crossover based on the F-Pace SVR. Only 100 copies are slated to be released, priced from £ 109,950 each.

The modified Jaguar F-Pace SVR company Lister announced two years ago: then the project was called LFP and claimed the title of the world’s fastest crossover with a maximum speed of 322 km / h. The real car, named Stealth, turned out to be a little less fast – “only” 314 km / h “maximum speed” and 3.6 s to 60 mph (96.56 km / h). But Lister modestly called his new creation the most powerful SUV in the UK – 666 hp. imperial or 675 hp according to our accepted metric system.

THE “TRUE” CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER HAS FOUND A NEW “FACE”. THE SISTER S10 PICKUP HAS ALSO BEEN REFRESHED

Chevrolet has updated its SUV and truck for South America. The exterior design was corrected for the models, the list of available equipment was expanded and the turbodiesel was improved.

For the South American market, the related frame pickup S10 and the Trailblazer all-terrain vehicle are produced in Brazil, so it is not surprising that it was in this country that the restyled cars debuted. Recall that the models of the current generation have been produced since 2012, and in 2016 they underwent a major modernization (the suspension was improved, instead of the power steering, an electric power steering appeared). This time there are fewer improvements. By the way, a month ago, the S10 brother Colorado was updated in the States. Well, we note that in the Chevy range there is another Trailblazer – a compact SUV with a monocoque body. The cross was presented last year, so it is still far from restyling.

THE EXCLUSIVE ASTON MARTIN DB4 GT BUILT FOR 25 LUCKY PEOPLE

“Made in England by Aston Martin” are words that immediately raise your heart rate. And there is wisdom behind when it comes to imagining extraordinary cars but above all because they make them like few others, with power and refinement in equal parts. Just look at some of the models most desired by fans (and those who are not) included in the famous initials of David Brown.

The DB4 GT is obviously one of them. Its engine is a jewel that not only survives the passage of time but also revives with its passage. Presented for the first time in October 1959 at the London Motor Show, it quickly won the affection of the drivers who took it to the city and the circuit in equal parts, with memorable results like those achieved in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

EVERYTHING INDICATES THAT THERE WILL BE A PRODUCTION VERSION OF THE HYUNDAI PROPHECY

You have to pay attention to the prototypes that car manufacturers are presenting. They always represent some kind of advance in terms of design or at a technical level, and some of these advances move to production models in consecutive years. That is precisely what is going to happen with the Hyundai Prophecy Concept, which is likely to hit the market without too many changes. In fact, there is already talk that it could be the next generation of the Hyundai Ioniq.

It is not very clear whether the name will be changed or maintained, but what seems certain is that this prototype will serve as inspiration for a production model. It will be after the arrival of other copies, the Hyundai 45 Concept, a crossover with a retro look that also appeared in the form of a prototype and was well received by the public. If it could appear later this year, Prophecy is not expected until next 2021.
