The fact that since 2017 all new cars in the US will have to be equipped with side curtain airbags, but close cabin of Viper does not allow to do this.

Glamorous coupe Audi A8 long wheelbase is ready to steal sales from the Mercedes S-Class. Now, based on the next-generation aluminum A8 Ingolstadt carmaker is going to create a new rival Mercedes-Maybach Coupe and S-Class.

Currently, the manufacturer with the four rings offers a standard sedan model and version of the A8 long-wheelbase, but success in the markets of China and North America, Mercedes-Maybach, Pullman and S-Class is haunted. Speaking at the recent launch of the SUV SQ7, new technical boss Stefan Knirsch Audi said the company devises new derivatives of the A8 sedan “We think about it. The success of the long version of S-Class has caused us concern: whether there can be a business case for this in the future. “

According to his words, the brand is considering launching a longer version of the A8, as well as the new coupe, and even a convertible. Apparently, not in vain is surprisingly coincided with the decision of Benz to expand S-Class range to six models and run on the basis of a large convertible S-Class Coupe.

The new A8 sedan will appear in the first half of 2017, soon to be followed by L-version, and only in 2018, may be – some other, even more luxurious options.

In addition, the family expects a relative by the name A9 (presumably, this will be an analog of the Panamera, the low and streamlined).

In addition, Audi can answer the Coupe S-Class by Coupe model, A9 (or A8 Coupe), whose inverse image was seen as prologue. If we continue the logical chain, it is possible an outdoor version of the A8, but Ingolstadt said nothing about this.

Meanwhile, Audi has won three awards in the competition Automotive Innovation Award, organized by the German Center of Automotive Management and PricewaterhouseCoopers AG company.

The current concept of the Volvo young family seems has not justified itself. Hatchback V40 and created on its basis pseudo crossover V40 Cross Country were sold worse than its main competitors: in the past, Europeans have bought only 81,000 “40”, whereas the results of Audi A3 are 199 000 cars, and “1” BMW and Mercedes A-class found their 120-130 thousand of clients (not counting the platform with the second series of models and CLA).

Therefore the fortieth family of the next generation will have a different composition: in Gothenburg were presented a full crossover Volvo Concept 40.1 and a liftback Concept 40.2.

You can’t go anywhere without SUV now – this is the spirit of the times. But with the liftback the company returns to the origins of its compact family.

Do you remember Volvo 345, developed on the basis of company technologies of the DAF vehicles division? These five doors cars were manufactured from 1980 to 1991, distinguished by unusual design with rear-wheel drive and a gearbox referred back, and over their appearance worked famous Italian Giovanni Michelotti, the author of the design of many models of Ferrari, a Maserati and BMW.

In appearance of liftback Concept 40.2, there are direct references to the model 345: characteristic kink of window sill line of the rear rack, elevated feed.

Although in general both concepts are decorated in the same style with the new production models S90 and XC90 – with sheered front

LED “pins” in the headlights, and a minimal amount of “extra” lines.

We start our review with the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport

Outlander is ambivalent: being created on the Mitsubishi Lancer platform, it has a rather modest wheelbase, but overall length is close to a D-class models.

However, in our review it still occupies a middle position by both the geometric parameters and accelerating the dynamics and efficiency.

The car has good permeability. This contributes to the very high ground clearance in the group – it is at the level of the SUV, while working suspension moves in passenger low. Advanced four-wheel drive is longer configured for excellent handling, rather than to overcome a heavy off-road.

http://www.auctionexportblog.com/choose-a-powerful-crossover-for-33-500/

Outlander Sport – perhaps one of the few crossovers, which of course costs more than 30 000 dollars. The price for this vehicle is 32,200 dollars and it is for 2 700 $ more expensive than a car with a 2.4-liter engine, CVT and less sophisticated 4WD drive in close configuration, where there are LED headlamps with washers, navigation and electric drive of the fifth door.

Of course in its equipment there is engine start button, leather upholstery, climate and cruise control, 18-inch wheels, multifunction steering wheel with gearshift paddles, touch screen display, a rearview camera, all kinds of electric and security systems.

Outlander Sport has such exclusive attributes as a sunroof and chrome window sill eyeliner line. Hatches and panoramic roof: the pros and cons

Hyundai Santa Fe

The Korean crossover is the most similar to Mitsubishi in size, although it is much harder, but he is slower not only because of this, only.

Hyundai Santa Fe is diesel, and the power of its engine is exactly two hundred horses.

Both cars have a reasonably modest appetite and playfulness inferior to the Japanese and German, although the supply of traction of the “Santa” is the largest in the review. This is important for the cross-country.

Alas, most passenger ride height even with four-wheel drive and a good way of course is slightly inferior to the vehicles of known brands

US auto safety experts confirmed that the size is important.

Well, finally they decided to tell the truth! Experts of the American Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), which conducts its own crash tests cars for the needs of the insurance industry, acknowledged that small cars are a real threat to the passengers in the event of an accident.

They conducted crash tests of 11 most popular compact cars of American market a year ago.
http://www.auctionexportblog.com/small-cars-safety-ratings/

Cars were hit by the front part of the body, but not on the wall, and with a slight overlap of the obstacles on the part of the driver. It was found that only one car Chevrolet Spark has been tested confidencely. And the other “kids” were complete outsiders, Mazda2, Kia Rio, Toyota Yaris, Ford Fiesta got a bad mark “C”, and Mitsubishi Mirage, Nissan Versa, Toyota Prius C, Hyundai Accent, Fiat 500 and Honda Fit completely failed the test. They did not survive the head-on collision.

During the tests was carried out punch with partial overlapping of the driver.

Small lightweight cars have an absolute disadvantage of the security. It is therefore important to choose the model that provides better protection of passengers, – said Joe Nolan, senior vice president of research at IIHS. – Unfortunately, compacts as a class can not show a collision with a partial overlap of the same results as a larger automobiles

Lexus RX 350
