Honda has published the first photos of the modernised variant of crossover CR-V. Predictably, appearance of the car has changed not too strongly. However it is possible to note occurrence of new bumpers, other radiator enclosure, hardly other cowl. Besides, the design of wheel disks has been changed. Capacity of the 2,4-litre petrol unit will increase about 166 h.p. to 180 h.p. Modernization diesel engine will give out 150 h.p., instead of 140 h.p. will undergo, besides, to 350 Nm the twisting moment (+10 Nm) will grow. And, the diesel engine will be completed with a new 5-step automatic gear box. And here the petrol motor popular in Russia in volume of 2,0 l remains without changes.
Before motor show opening in Frankfurt ever less time, therefore escape of the data about this car was inevitable and should happen more likely earlier, than later. And here it has occurred – before you Audi R8 Spyder in person, without espionage photos everyone there and gamble. In this colour the cabriolet with a developing roof from Ingolstadt looks simply is delightful.
In the absence of the official information i cannot inform you data on cabriolet dimensions, however already now it is precisely known that the unique power unit for this car will be 5,2-litre V10 from Lamborghini, capacity and which twisting moment will make 525 h.p. and 530 Nanometers accordingly. Together with roof Audi R8 Spyder has got rid of firm "edges" on each side, but behind passenger armchairs now there were characteristic convex cambers with air intakes.
Concern Renault has presented Koleos White Edition – special version Koleos with a set of the options based on complete set Dynamique. So, complete set Dynamique is for Koleos White Edition base.

For company McLaren today rather great day. Today this well-known company which specialises on Formula-1, has published the first official photos road super car which should go on sale in the end of next year. The new car while has rather difficult name MP4-12C is constructed with use of all knowledge of engineers McLaren in «Formula-1». The car has very easy and strong basis-capsule to which the engine and a suspender (similar technology clings is used and in Formula-1). As to a body all its panels are made of easy composit materials. In many respects for this reason new McLaren MP4-12C will be more expensive than the competitors among whom such cars as Ferrari 458 Italia and Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 appear.
Behind a capsule where will be a place for the driver and the passenger, engine V8 in volume of 3,8 l with a double turbo-supercharging is established. And that the most interesting, this motor has been from beginning to end developed by engineers of company McLaren. At present about unit characteristics it is known not much. Clearly that it will develop 600 h.p., it can be untwisted to 8500 rpm, and 80 % of a twisting moment (a maximum 600 Nm) will be already accessible at 2000 rpm. Together with the engine the new box with double clutch which will receive seven drives begins to work.
New McLaren will possess all means of safety. Here there will be ABS, antispin system, electronic distribution of braking powers, safety pillows and so on. And in interior will suffice updates too; the climate control, the electric drive of armchairs, navigating system, "music" of class High-End.
Brabus studio plans to present madman SV12 R on Frankfurt Motor Show. Taking for a basis donor Mercedes S 600, engineers have presented to this car bi-turbo 12-cylinder motor with a modifed propeller shaft, the shod buckets optimised by heads of cylinders and increased with 5,5 to 6,3 litres by a working volume. Besides it experts Brabus have established larger turbo compressors, more effective system of intermediate cooling, and also a high-efficiency exhaust system from noncorrosive steel and new ECU.
Due to this capacity SV12 R has increased to 750 h.p, and the maximum twisting moment should be pacified electronics on a mark in 1100 Nanometers. To 100 km/h of a car is dispersed for 4 seconds, and dispersal from 0 to 200 km/h occupies 11,9 seconds. You will press down a pedal still – and you will rest against the electronic arrester working for speed of 340 km/h.
The car equip with brakes Brabus with the ventilated punched disks, and also 12-piston calipers in front and 6-piston – behind.

New Rolls-Royce Ghost became the most powerful and fast car in the history of the company: 563 horsepowers, 4.9 seconds to hundred! The car is stuffed by electronics, including the trekshn-control and infra-red system of detection of pedestrians. At all it is conservative enough as a whole and traditionally comfortable.
Predictably, serial Rolls-Royce Ghost practically does not differ from the conceptual version 200EX, shown this spring. Contrast silvery colouring of a cowl and a windshield framework is an option – it is possible to order and the monophonic car. On a choice 12 colours are offered, we will list their names for fans: Adriatic Blue, Claret, Darkest Tungsten, Dark Indigo, Diamond Black, English White, Ensign Red, Jubilee Silver, Lunar Blue, Metropolitan Blue, New Sable, Sea Green. Cars in the same shop where and Phantom, on painting and polishing of one Ghost leaves seven days are painted.
The system without key access already meets and on accessible models, but is unusual to conservative mark: Ghost opens itself when the owner with a charm approaches on distance of 1.5 metres (option). Inside – traditional style Rolls-Royce: simple, deliberately "craft" forms, a skin, the massive wooden panels, the chromeplated details, vent holes of type "eyeball". The interior by lamps with matte plafonds is highlighted. The screen on a front panel is hidden under a wooden cover, and additional functions can be steered or the rotary controller with additional buttons which has settled down on the central extension housing, or a voice.
The form of rear seats allows to turn slightly to the interlocutor who is sitting next. By the way, it is possible to choose both an integral sofa, and individual armchairs with massage, heating up and air-conditioning. As an option folding little tables for a lunch are offered a minibar with illumination, a compartment for champagne glasses. In backs of front armchairs it is possible to establish 9-inch monitors, and in a small box – a changer on 6 disks. The interesting moment - in front doors umbrellas with a teflon covering hide. Ghost is stuffed by various auxiliary electronic systems, however developers pay attention: they were projected so that not to disturb to the driver and to confuse it, and to do steering easier and pleasant. The list habitual enough for the prestigious modern car also engages the trekshn-control, stabilisation system, etc.
Ghost is equipped by system of night vision, the infra-red radiator allows to find out pedestrians on distance to 300 metres and to display them on the monitor. The distance to object, its speed and a direction is defined, by results of the analysis of the information the car gives out the prevention to the driver. Also in the list of equipment Head-Up the display (on a windshield the information is displayed necessary for the driver), "the alarm clock", warning vibration about traverse of a dividing strip, adaptive rotary headlights, active cruise-control with function Stop&Go. Some chambers in a lobby and a car rear help to park.
To combine traditional comfort and high dynamics the pneumatic suspender with absorbers steered electronics allows. As developers inform, it is rather sensitive, and is capable to correct the characteristics, for example, in case the passenger sits only on the one hand. The road gleam is regulated within 25 millimetres. Engine V12 in volume of 6.6 litres with two turbines develops capacity of 563 h.p. that allows the car to be dispersed to 100 km/h for 4.9 seconds, the maximum speed is limited 250 km/h. A gear box 8-step automatic, manufactures ZF. Average fuel consumption makes 13.6 litres on 100 kilometres.
In Great Britain Rolls-Royce Ghost will be on sale for 165000 pounds, in Europe the price will make 213000 euros, in the USA 245000 dollars.

New C-MAX differs rather interesting appearance, and under a cowl of this car is 1,6-litre petrol motor from series EcoBoost. The given power unit will receive system of direct injection of fuel and a turbo-supercharging. The motor will start to exhaust at once in three variants. The base version begins to give out 130 h.p., also there will be 150 and even a 180-strong version. Thus the engine will differ not only decent capacity, but also very moderate fuel consumption. According to representatives Ford, motor EcoBoost begins to spend for 20 % of less gasoline, than nowadays existing units of similar capacity. It is interesting that at the heart of new C-MAX the platform from the third generation Focus (now this car only takes place tests for tracks) lies. While Ford will show only 5-seater version C-MAX, but there is no doubt that soon there will be also a 7-seater car, and outwardly it will differ a little from less capacious colleague.
Representatives of concern BMW have confirmed earlier circulating hearings that company Mini will begin a batch production at once several new cars. That Mini will do a crossover, all for a long time already heard.
