2020 Kia Sorento Officially Revealed

06/05/2020

Kia’s biggest SUV

The cancellation of the Geneva Motor Show was a great loss for the organizers and for all the manufacturers who were prepared to exhibit the new models for 2020. Among them was the Korean giant Kia that would present, among other things, the new Sorento model. Now the public will be able to see it directly in the car showrooms all over Europe in the period July-September.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″]

How is the new Kia Sorento?

To begin with, the dimensions are almost unchanged. The chassis is new, but the length increases by only 1cm (481cm total) and the width is also (190cm) while the most interesting “promise” comes from the opening between the axles that have increased by 3.5cm, normally for the benefit of passengers. Given that a large SUV must first and foremost guarantee comfort, Kia has also changed the depreciation system to have more comfort and more dynamics in the guide. The overall look of the new model is important and modern.

The Design

The design is oriented to maintain continuity with the previous model, but by modernizing it. The giant masquerade that includes headlights inside is a new element for Kia which turns out to be a hit element. The profile has harmonious lines with a sporty “cut” that is evidenced by the angle of the glass and cabin in the rear area while from the back Sorento has a solid look with chrome elements in which the Korean manufacturer is not spared.

Inside

From the inside the design remains relatively traditional, but Kia promises that the quality of the materials used has increased. The attention to technology and detail brings a modern car. Led screens occupy a leading place in the interior space. The digital frame measures 12.3 ”while the infotainment measures 8” or 10.25” depending on the version. The Cambio lever has disappeared to make way for a rotating Jaguar Land Rover style model.

The Motorization

From the motor point of view, hybrid motorization stands out based on the 1,600 cubic motor unit accompanied by an electric motor with 60 horsepower. The total power of the system is 230 horsepower. The gearbox is automatic with (only) six gears.

In addition, the Sorento also offers the possibility of a diesel engine based on the traditional 2,200 cubic engine with 202 horsepower. The automatic gearbox in this case is double friction and robotic with eight gears.

The Electronics

The electronics in this model have an important voice as it enables traction control, power-sharing on axes according to the terrain and automatic gearbox ratios. The power on the wheels is controlled autonomously for each of them and guarantees optimal traction in the guide outside the asphalt when we may encounter mud, sand, or snow.

The Kia Sorento is also equipped with a range of Adas systems.

Prices and Availability

Sales will begin in the second half of the year, but we still don’t have the price list for the versions that the new Kia Sorento will offer.

Lamborghini Urus close to 1,000 HP, from 0 to 100km/h in just 2.9 seconds

06/05/2020

The most powerful tuned Urus we’ve seen so far

When it comes to superfast SUVs, the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk and Lamborghini Urus are definitely worth mentioning.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″]

The Trackhawk has a 6.2-liter V8 Hellcat engine that produces 707 horsepower (527 kilowatts) while the Urus has a smaller, 4.0L twin-turbo V8 engine that produces 650 horsepower (485 kW).

Trackhawk in a race with Urus has managed to beat it, but it has not competed with the model modified by HGP. The German car modification company, HGP has updated the Urus, turning it into a super-fast SUV.

This modified Urus has 947 horsepower while the speed from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour is reached in just 2.9 seconds and the maximum at 340 km/h.

HGP did not have to replace Urus turbocharger to achieve these figures. This company has given Urus the chip developed by them, a new ventilation system, gas discharge pipes from Akropovic and reprogrammed marches and with these modifications they have reached close to 1 thousand horsepower.

It is known that Urus is something special, a super sports SUV, but now it can compete with the supercars of Ferrari, Porsches, and Lamborghini Aventador.

Mercedes-AMG A45 S Boosted to 525 HP by Posaidon

02/05/2020

The speed from 0 to 100 km/h is reached in 3.6 seconds

The Mercedes-AMG A45 is a very powerful car, which has a 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder engine of 285 kW/ 87 horsepower while its S version has 310 kW/421 horsepower.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″]

However, for someone this is not enough. So, the German company that deals with car modification, Posaidon, has prepared the new package “RS 525“. This package includes engine boost of this model in full 386 kW/525 horsepower.

Now, this AMG A45 RS 525 reaches speeds from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in 3.4 seconds and a maximum of 324 km/h.

In addition, Posaidon also offers the weakest package with which this AMG A45 is reinforced at 342 kW/465 horsepower. With this package, the speed from 0 to 100 km/h is reached in 3.6 seconds while the maximum at 318 km/h.

Also, Posaidon has prepared some new parts for this A45, from the new set of wheels, stronger brakes, modified shock absorbers, etc.

VW ID.4 GTX High-Performance EV Spied For The First Time While Being Tested

30/04/2020

Volkswagen is continuing to work on expanding its electric cars range

So far, the final version of the Volkswagen ID.4 has not been released, but reporters dealing with new cars have caught it while testing a sporty version of this model.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″]

Based on previous reports, it was said that Volkswagen is working on a high-performance sports version, called the GTX, while it is believed that this car has just been caught for the first time.

Although Volkswagen has camouflaged itself with a fake grill and fake gas pipes, some changes are still noticeable.

Compared to the ID.4 we’ve seen so far, the peak is higher, which means there’s more interior space, while the expansion of the rear has increased the luggage space. The arm located in the visible part, has given this car a much more sporty look, while in general it looks more like the GTI version, while the X has been added to show that it can be driven with all wheels.

The New York Auto Show, which was due to take place this month, was the event where Volkswagen would present this car with 201 horsepower, while now it is not known when it will be able to present it.

2021 Toyota Yaris Cross Revealed

29/04/2020

With a similar design as the Yaris hatchback, even the engines that will be offered with the Yaris Cross will be the same

Toyota has unveiled a new small SUV that rivals the Nissan Juke, Renault Capture, Peugeot 2008 and Skoda Kamic. The SUV will be manufactured at Toyota’s plant in Valencia, France, and in high quality, about 150,000 copies a year, according to Toyota’s plans.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″]

Unveiled in a live presentation video, the Yaris Cross comes with a design inspired by Toyota’s new SUVs, mostly the RAV4. With a similar design to the Yaris hatchback even the engines that will be offered with the Yaris Crossin will be the same.

Don’t judge it by its name. If the name Yaris indicates a city car, the Yaris Cross is not simply a Yaris a few inches taller, but is a completely separate model in the best sense of the word. It is based on the TNGA platform – Toyota New Global Architecture and will be produced in France, thus becoming a European passport.

The design of the Toyota Yaris Cross is probably the most accomplished element so much that we can say that this model could better be called Rav4 Junior or something similar because it actually looks more like a Rav4. The front view is important and modern, the profile carefully processed and with quality details where the muscular fenders covered with protective plastic stand out and details that enrich it like the chrome logo “Hybrid” below the mirror and the name Yaris Cross realized in the body paint over the plastic protection of the wire under the back door.

The cut profile in the back area creates a dynamic shape giving it character while the back of Yaris Cross is shaped and embossed in the area of lights that join a Led bar on which the Toyota logo is placed. Details like ceilings with different colors from the body enrich it even more by offering personalization options and making it even more trendy. In other words the personality of this car will be one of the strengths.

Toyota Yaris Cross is 418 cm long, 177 cm wide and 156 cm high. This means that the space on board for its category is good considering another 256 cm of space between the axes.

The kruskot is organized on two levels with the center in the upper area the screen with touch of infotainment and below the mini screen of the air conditioner with physical commands (with buttons). The realization seems qualitative and this is shown by the fact that the air conditioner has two areas.

Japanese designers have also worked carefully in terms of security. This is evident from the inclusion of some elements such as “head-up display” , usually devices that are offered in more expensive models, emergency braking, etc. but we noticed a novelty or more precisely an innovation.

Toyota has produced an airbag that is positioned between the first two seats, ensuring that the driver and first passenger do not collide with each other in the event of an accident. Active Cruise control with Stop & Go, Lane Assistant, emergency maneuver assistant, Led headlights, etc. are elements that further enrich the technological package.

The Toyota Yaris Cross will also offer 4×4 (optional) traction which many of its rivals do not offer. Motorizations will be for all tastes, with diesel, petrol and hybrids. Its hybrid system uses a 1.5-liter three-cylinder petrol engine which, in addition to producing horsepower, also charges batteries for the electric motor. In the Yaris, the electric motor has new lithium batteries, which are lighter than those of the previous model from nickel.

So far Yaris Cross has all the papers in order, but we will have to wait a bit as the delivery to the concessionaires is scheduled for the middle of next year.
