autostream.blogspot.com

On a showroom in Paris which will open already very soon, BMW will present not only the second generation of off-road car Х3, but also a prototype of new six. Besides, BMW have published the first images of this model.

Apparently, the serial version of new six which will be shown in the beginning of next year, will appear hardly more widely and more long then the present car. As to design here the continuity of style, of course, will remain, but thus the car will receive absolutely new car body elements. Certainly, the interior where the central extension housing will be developed to the driver becomes another also.

To speak about scale of engines while is premature. But all goes to that the new generation of BMW 6th series will be equipped only with turbo motors. The 6-cylinder unit in volume of 3,0 l (306 h.p.) becomes base. Besides, will be and V8 volume 4,4 l (407 h.p.). There will be also a 3,0-liter diesel engine which begins to give out an order of 300 h.p. As to version M6 it will start to be equipped not V10, and V8, but with forced aspiration and capacity of 555 h.p.

New Opel Astra. The first official PHOTOS!



There first official photos of new generation Opel Astra! Thus at once it is necessary to tell – on sale the model will appear still at a distant day, after all its premiere is planned only for September. In September in Frankfurt it will be shown 5-doors hatchback which should become the most popular. But Opel has published not only hatchback pictures, but also two sketches. On one of them it is drawn "charged" 3-doors Opel Astra GTC which will resemble more a coupe, and on the second we can see a practical station wagon.



Predictably, in Opel have decided not to spend courageous experiments with design and have gone by the way of evolution. But thus new Astra looks much more interesting than the present car. At the heart of model the same front-wheel platform on which it is already constructed Chevrolet Cruze will lie. However it does not say to us that Astra will go the same as and Cruze. The German car, for certain, will receive the character – on idea, Opel should become more sports.



Under cowl Astra will start to put the new gasoline engine in volume of 1,4 l with a turbo-supercharging which will give out 120-140 h.p., and its twisting moment will make 175-200 Nanometers (exact figures are not known yet). There will be also other motors, including volume 1,8 l and 2,0 l, however, the basic rate will become nevertheless on the economic 1,4-litre unit. It is supposed that sales 5-doors Astra will begin already in the end of this year. And here 3-door GTC and the versatile person will appear only in 2010.
