The hybrid would probably have won, but played a crucial role courageous decision of former F1 driver Marc Gene. The Spaniard drove one version “ultra” and decided to change your tires for dry weather, while the track was still raining, though weak. The risk was justified and diesel Audi crossed the finish line first.

According to the head of the sports division Audi - Wolfgang Ullrich, namely R18 e-tron quattro is the most ambitious project of Audi Sport in its 30-year history. According to him, this car can achieve the same success that the team registered cars with company TFSI engines and TDI.

However, the machine has four-wheel drive, no mechanical link between the front and rear axle. To meet their timing electronics. This drive system is called e-tron quattro.

The start of the season ahead after a prototype little more than a month. On 16-17 June will present Audi Motorsport R18 e-tron quattro race in the legendary “24 Hours of Le Mans.” The big competitor to the Germans, in the absence of the factory team of Peugeot, will be a hybrid Toyota TS030 Hybrid.

German concern Volkswagen continues to expand its model, introducing new vehicles in classes and segments. In this way the company wants to be the most widely represented in the market and satisfy the desires of all customers.

Unofficial image

Recently, the Germans showed their high-passable wagon Passat Alltrack, cook a four-door coupe Golf CC and develop next-generation Passat. In fact, Volkswagen is Europe’s leader in most classes, but there are other markets where the situation is different. One is that of large SUVs, which are much in demand in North America. Therefore, the Group of Wolfsburg began development of a large, 7-seat SUV, which can compete with “beasts” as the Infiniti QX56 and the Cadillac Escalade.

To make such a car, its creator need a platform. That of the Tuareg e smaller and will have its stretching in all directions, which is quite complicated. Therefore, the German engineers have decided to borrow the approach of their American counterparts. In North America, large SUVs are made on the platform of pickup trucks and Volkswagen fitted - Amarok.

Hoped that the new SUV to be ready no later than 2 years, its release will or any of the salons in the U.S., or the exhibition in Qatar. In Europe, this machine will be sold so it will be equipped with gasoline engines. In addition to Qatar and the Middle East, the machine will be directed to markets in China and Russia.

Besides the issue of new large SUV, Volkswagen will examine the future of its largest machine of this class currently - Touareg. Facelift of the current generation will go on sale next year, the main changes will be in the basic equipment of the vehicle, which will be much richer. The price will not change.

The next, third generation Touareg, is still questionable. He will have to be adapted to the new platform MQB, which will be done next and Tiguan.

Renault and preparing its own version of Juke.

In an interview with the English edition HeadlineAuto, marketing director Stephen Norman revealed Renault what the French car company prepares for the next three years.

Undoubtedly the most interesting for us fans is the model Renault Alpine A110, Frenchmen who intend to revive. This year Renault celebrates its 50th anniversary model and is likely to see his successor Paris Motor Show in September.

Norman would not disclose details about the successor to the Renault Alpine A110, which is produced in Bulgaria under the name Bulgaralpine. However, said it will light a sports car of the highest class. He confirmed that the model will use technology from Nissan, which led many to believe that the successor to Bulgaralpine will be featured on svrahuspeshniyat Nissan GT-R.

More on the question of Renault Sport vehicle will see at the exhibition in Paris. There will be held the premiere of the next Clio. For the fourth generation of the popular compact car knows that he will get completely new design, created by the new design language of the brand and a completely new range of engines.

About a year later and Renault will show a compact crossover that will use based on the Nissan Juke. It is not yet clear whether the Renault car will take only technique Juke or take advantage of its provocative design.

The next new model will see Frenchmen in 2014. These are the new Megane, which will be followed by the next generation of Koleos. Wooded model will be transformed into MPV vehicle that will keep off-road capabilities. The next Koleos will see later in the year 2015, more than is now known that the model will receive a design inspired by the concept R Space, shown at Geneva in 2011.

Also in 2015, hang the new generations of Laguna and Espace. The plans of Renault and includes several common models with Daimler, including hybrid, positioned below the Twingo and a luxury limousine. Among the projects that Renault will implement together Daimler, will present “something totally unexpected,” which Stephen Norman prefers to keep secret.

Are likely in the fall of the Paris Motor Show, Renault to present the revived image of the iconic Renault Alpine A110. French company celebrated the 50th anniversary of the model.

Alpine A110 e legendary Renault model. Lifetimes of Alpine sports is from 1961 to 1977, as a peak in the race was in the 70s. Has a unique design and features that seem relevant to today’s automobiles.

The model won the legendary Monte Carlo Rally and World Rally Championship. Behind the wheel he was one of the most talented racing drivers of his time. Among them is Elijah Chubrikov, who became the terror of many of its competitors. He won the rally “Golden Sands” in 1971.

In the period 1967-1969 Renault Alpine A110 is produced in Bulgaria under the name Bulgaralpine. For this period were made about 100 cars, some of which are still at home in wonderful condition.

Time remains to show that reinvigorated coupe Alpine, which will be shown in Paris will become a reality. Renault will take the decision to place it in the series, whenever they consider the reaction of viewers.

Marketing Director of Renault, Steve Norman said there idea what to do to be placed on the Alpine. It comes only to how many units can be marketed. He adds:

“You must first answer the question: Is there a place on today’s market for a car that can compete with the Porsche? To pay for our production car, Alpine, we must be able to sell in North America and China” .

Chief of Design, Van den Acker also said the prospects of such a concept: “It seems unrealistic to expect that it can produce competing with Ferrari and Lamborghini. Brand would not agree. On the other hand, the development of new (electric) technology can believe anything is possible. “

This will be the next segment of AMG, now discuss what goes into it. ” Jung says that the price of 200,000 euros for the SLS model allows for other, smaller and cheaper model of Mercedes.

When the Bulgarian branch of Renault-Nissan invited me from Bulgaria car hire with the new Micra to route Sofia - Bourgas - Sofia, I decided it was a joke. It was hard to imagine why the test is one of the most famous and popular city car will be held in the city.

Honestly, do not push too much for this test because I thought long journey Micra will be a tough test for the limbs, kidneys and nerves me.

But then read the information for the new model. She claimed that the Micra is now larger, softer ride and a supercharged engine.

This made me dare to go to Burgas. But there were surprises. First, it appeared that the car will travel three colleagues from Bulgaria car hire, and then - in a hurry to open a new showroom Renault, Dacia and Nissan in Burgas.

No way, I already rolled, so stick to the car. It however was not as close as I thought. I dare say that even widely, and that in the presence of two more. I thought, well, at least not close … but surely stoned, and will not go.

And those projections proved me wrong. The car ride much smoother than the previous generation, and even accelerates well, especially the first three gears. Yes, the gym is quite noisy, especially on the highway, where rush for maintaining the speed of 130-140 km / hour.

In more moderate ride, things are quite different. The car takes bumps with the handwriting of Renault, and the engine, which incidentally has just three cylinders, are typically deployed as Nissan. Evidence for this is 4 hours, which cost me a trip to Burgas, and deep sleep in one of his colleagues, who slept through the distance from Stara Zagora to Petolachkata the back seat.

The idea of ??the producers apparently was to consolidate its leading position among the Micra compact car, making it ideal for city traffic and suitable for longer trips.

For this purpose, the brand’s engineers have prepared two economical petrol engine with direct fuel injection, three-cylinder 1.2 liters, which may have mated with manual or CVT transmission. Cocking were turning radius to 4.65 m and increased the distance between axles 20 mm (2450 mm). The length of the car is also increased - by 61 mm (3780 mm) and width (+5 mm to 1665 mm), and its height is reduced by 10 mm and has 1520 mm.

Stuffed enough features and safety systems (ESP is standard) even at the lowest level of equipment to make the stay in the Micra a nice design and have made a moderate to appeal to a wider audience .

Used are completely new platform that is tailored to be maximally healthy, with minimal twisting and thereby helps ensure more accurate and easier management. V The new platform is both lighter and stronger, which gives the new Micra impressive qualities: strength, spacious interior, fuel economy and low emissions.

A fuel consumption is really low. The devices showed consumption of 5.8 l/100 km, and then in our riding. However, in the car were three automotive journalists who rush to the sea. I should mention the fact that the motor was developed - the car was driven less than 100 km when I got on board.

The model that I drove was a weaker aspirated engine - 1.2-liter, 80 hp and maximum torque of 110 Nm. In January and will appear version of this engine. It provides 98 hp and 142 ft, is equipped with start / stop system and consumes around 1.5 liters less than atmospheric. CO2 emissions are just 98 g / km.

To finish I would say that in no way want to persuade you that the Micra is the perfect car for a long time. There is, however, refuse to travel that path again when arriving supercharged version.

Crossover with 200 hp and fuel consumption 4.0 l/100 km.
French Peugeot presented in Bоurgas crossover 508 RXH, which is the third version of the model after the 508 sedan and station wagon.

As its name suggests, 508 RXH created based on a wagon version of 508 and will compete with models like the Audi Allroad and Volvo XC70.

Unlike other models, 508 RXH trust hybrid system uses electric and internal combustion engine, and offering to drive all four wheels, without mechanical connection between the front and rear.

Hybrid4 drive system consists of a turbo 2.0 HDi FAP engine located up front and drive the front axle and rear-mounted electric motor and drive the rear wheels.

The total system power is 200 hp, average consumption in mixed driving cycle is just 4.0 liters diesel per 100 km. Of CO2 emissions are 109 g / km.

AWD can be in one of four modes - Automatic, Sport, 4WD or Zero Emissions, where the drive is entirely by an electric motor.

508 RXH sales in Bulgaria will start by spring next year.

Three major Japanese companies said clearly that they know how to get out of the crisis in Bulgaria. Each of them prepares new models in the mass market segments that will help them increase production and sales to overcome the backlog this year, caused by the disaster in March.

Furthermore, we see numerous upgrades of existing models now, according to Automotive News, which analyzed the near future, Toyota, Honda and Nissan. Recently, three Japanese companies are focused on specific niche market segments (Honda Crosstour, Toyota Venza, or Nissan Juke).

Now the strategy is changed to the new models in some of the most popular segments - new versions of the Toyota Camry, Yaris and RAV4; of the Honda Accord and CR-V; of the Nissan Versa, Sentra and Altima will be available until 2013.

All three companies in Bulgaria will try to present something new to their segments. So they will try to regain their positions in recent months taken away from them, mostly Korean but also from the U.S..

Toyota and Lexus are still unable to shake off the losses caused by the earthquake stopped production because, Honda and Acura have slowed the development of several new models for the same reason, and even Nissan can keep the pace of production and sales, there are serious problems in the Infiniti.

Last year, Toyota, Honda, Nissan and their luxury brands hold 33.7% of the U.S. market. Now through June, they accounted for about 30%. The aim of the three Japanese companies to regain market share in one of the largest and most important markets for them.

In early 2012 Mercedes-Benz will present new Class-A.
Direct competitors of BMW 1 this time will be different in every respect than its predecessor. Sales of new A-Class in Bulgaria will start in early 2012, but recently not a week passes without seeing new pictures and information about this car.

This proves that the vehicle goes through extensive testing, the Mercedes-Benz is trying to maintain and increase interest in the new model. Another novelty is the fact that this will be only one model.

CLC Shooting Brake.Za new Class-A concept shown speaks in Shanghai. It must be said however that the new model over the company continues to work intensively.

Changes compared with the concept known. This has affected some custom parts for the concept. Change is in the radiator grille into the holes in the front bumper and headlights, which in the production version will have more conventional appearance. The new A-Class retains the two wavy lines crossing the side of the car, and the characteristic line of the side windows, known models coupe Mercedes-Benz.

The engines will be the result of cooperation between Daimler and the Alliance Renault-Nissan. All four-cylinder engines will be and turbine will be small by Renault: 140 CGI (1.2, 80 kW), 160 CGI (1.4 l, 100 kW) and turbo 160 CDI (1.6, 90 kW). Larger are its Mercedes - Petrol 180 CGI (1.8 l, 125 kW), 200 CGI (1.8, 150 kW) and diesel 180 CDI (2.1, 125 kW) and 200 CDI (2.1, 150 kW).

So far this information for drivers in Bulgaria is still unofficial, refer to the publication in AutoBild. Bulgarian companies with rental cars reported that prepares and AMG version of the new A-Class. Will be transmitting traffic 4×4 capacity of at least 300 hp (221 kW).

Before you see the new A-Class, the market will appear the new B-Class.

Bulgarian car thieves are increasingly out fraud leasing cars instead of stealing them directly, said inspectior of the Criminal Police in Bourgas - Bulgaria. The last hit home car hire thieves is theft the same car that are rented. The car is rented for 20 days, paid in advance with credit card fraud. Then the car back on the fifth day, a company that deals with hire cars, make the difference in cash money. Such scams are a hit among Bulgarian thieves in Spain, Germany and Italy.

In our market of stolen luxury cars and parts for them has shrunk dramatically because of the crisis and low prices in stores. For example, BMW X5 SUV 2-3 years currently sells for about one auto thieves 8000-9000 leva. In the few cases in which stolen cars are exported to the former Soviet Union or the Arab world.

Miroslav Tonchev of the Criminal Police told: “Take a luxury car rental with a credit card or counterfeit plastics. With the card is paid as the price of 16 000 or 20 000. On the third day in the company say that there is no need, for example, the delegation did not come and the car was used only five days. Five days makes 200 leva to 1000 leva, while the other sum want to be returned. The amount returned in cash, and then it turns out that is paid with another credit card. ”

The newest hit the west is the theft of boats or small twin aircraft, telling of Criminal Police in Burgas. Bulgarian Interior Ministry has received requests from EU countries in search of such stolen aircraft and yachts. The police do not exclude the possibility to investigate other countries cases.

According to the Insurance Institute for Road Safety in Bulgaria, Volvo HS60 is one of the safest cars in the world.
According to the Insurance Institute for Traffic Safety in the U.S., Volvo HS60 is one of the safest cars in the world. Institute data show that the system equipped with active safety SUV model HS60 involved in 27 percent fewer crashes and 51 percent fewer accidents with injuries compared to other luxury SUV models.

This is mainly due to the system called City Safety used in Burgas (Bulgaria). This is a system for avoiding collisions at lower speeds. If it uses infrared laser sensor at speeds between 3 and 30 km / hour. If the system detects that the driver does not react in due time, it brakes to avoid collision.

Institute President Adrian Lund said that according to statistics, driver error accounted for 90% of incidents in this sense, the Volvo system helps to avoid some of them. Now the City Safety system is fitted as standard in addition to the HS60 also S60, S80 and XC70.

In addition to this system, the new Volvo models also have a system to detect pedestrians in front of the vehicle and brake system.

It works with radar and camera directed forward, which objects to scan the car and compared them with 10,000 forms out in her memory by doing this for 50 milliseconds.

Can monitor up to 64 pedestrians both danger and if you notice alerts the driver with sound and light. If no reaction on his part activates the brakes at full power.

The system is able to completely prevent accidents at speeds up to 32 km / h and significantly reduce the negative consequences of the incidents occurred at a higher speed.

More restrictions on cars to reduce emissions and attract people to public transport provides the project “Integrated urban transport of Burgas”. The concept was borrowed by the successful example of Amsterdam and Munich, where you can see the car in the central part is a real event, and people move mainly bicycles and buses. That became clear yesterday during the first information day on presentation of the project to the public in the Marine casino.

According to Daniela Nikolova, project coordinator in Bourgas are fully reorganize the movement. Priority at intersections and small streets will be given entirely to buses, the goal is the journey with them is twice as fast and convenient. For the cars will be introduced even more restrictions, such as limiting parking space and movement, and others. This will certainly cause social tension, international experience shows - in Amsterdam as citizens protested at the beginning of mass change, but it is not weakened the local authorities. “It will not be easy, there will be complaints and dissatisfaction, but should not be paying attention to short-term inconvenience, but must be viewed in perspective, because it is the only way,” said the head of department in Bulgaria DG “Regional Policy “The European Commission Carsten Rasmussen, who was one of the officials of the event. “We chose Burgas pilot project since ingr_transport_bs2vsichki other cities in the country he is most ready for implementation,” said Rasmussen and assured that within two weeks the European money for the renovation of Burgas will transport fact.

The project envisages the construction of so-called “rapid bus lines” for this purpose will be separate special buslenti, which can move only city buses. Takava tape is now marked and can be seen along the main street “Botev”. In these strips will be installed sensors to detect buses and will provide them the green light of all lights. It is also planned construction of combined bicycle and pedestrian bridges, bus stops a “platform” protective guardrails on buses and more.
