The new compact sports car is already on sale. The sports division of the German brand continues the tuning program for the most radical version. The latest shots allow a generous look at the interior, which differs from the basic versions by the presence of a large screen in the instrument cluster.

The new generation BMW 2 Series Coupe is already on sale, although those who wish will have to be patient to get their first copies. They will arrive in the spring of 2022. Meanwhile, BMW M technicians are continuing the test program developed for the new 2023 BMW M2.

New spy photos of this most insane BMW variant remain as camouflaged as in previous sightings. It is still impossible to see the details. At the same time, it is clear that the novelty will use a new vertical grille. This part has already been spotted in spy photos, retaining the classic double grille.

Thin double vertical stripes will run horizontally. The bumper with leaf-covered air intakes features profiled skirts and bulging wheel arches, giving the car a more aggressive look.

At the rear, the most noticeable feature will be a new spoiler lip on the edge of the boot lid and four tailpipes in the center of the rear.

A glance at the dash reveals a more modern configuration than the one shown in the new 2 Series coupe. And that’s what the top of the lineup will have, from launch, a new digital dashboard with a minimalist design that fits across the lineup. The same curved screen made its debut on board the iX.

The G87, as it is called internally, will be unveiled after the summer of 2022. its production will begin in December. It will arrive at dealerships in late spring 2023. Under the hood will be the M4’s 3.0-liter TwinPower Turbo 6-cylinder engine with a maximum output of 450 hp, available with both manual and automatic transmissions. The sports car will feature sophisticated options, alloy wheels up to 20 inches in diameter and a carbon roof.

Read also that the prototype of the new generation of the BMW 7 Series Hybrid sedan was noticed during the tests.

Independent designers of the Spanish portal motor.es did not wait for the premiere of the new Mercedes-Benz CLE coupe and presented their vision of the future novelty.

The new Mercedes-Benz CLE coupe will be presented only in 2023. The novelty will combine all the best from the C-Class and E-Class coupes. Spanish designers showed what kind of design the newest CLE Coupe could get.

According to media reports, the Germans are already working on a project for a new coupe. There is no official information about the future novelty yet, as well as sketches. On the render, we see a stylish coupe with a tapered head optics and an original radiator grille – it has retained the central stripe with the corporate star and the honeycomb pattern, but has changed its shape.

Moreover, it is expected that the new product will surpass the dimensions of the current C-Class coupe. There is no image of the stern, but it will probably also be slightly retouched to distance the new product from the current coupes.

It’s still too early to talk about the technical stuffing – we’ll wait for the first test prototypes of the Mercedes-Benz CLE.
Most likely, the Germans will not include diesel engines in the engine range of the new coupe, but hybrids should appear. The toughened emission standards in Europe have not yet been canceled.

Earlier, AutoTimesNews said that the Toyota Fortuner frame SUV will receive a new version. Test prototypes of the camouflaged “frame” hint at this.

Porsche tests prototype 911 off-road coupe https://www.byri.net/2021/07/12/porsche-tests-prototype-911-off-road-coupe/ https://www.byri.net/2021/07/12/porsche-tests-prototype-911-off-road-coupe/#respond Mon, 12 Jul 2021 17:12:02 +0000 https://www.byri.net/2021/07/12/porsche-tests-prototype-911-off-road-coupe/ The journalists published photos from the tests of a camouflaged Porsche 911 prototype.

The journalists published photos from the tests of a camouflaged Porsche 911 prototype. The car received increased ground clearance, as well as massive wheel arches.

Porsche is preparing many different versions of its 992-generation 911 sports coupe. It is known that we are expecting absolute innovations, such as the hybrid version of the model, as well as the off-road version of the Safari. More recently, foreign journalists captured a prototype of the latter.

It doesn’t have a hybrid powertrain (or at least we don’t think so), but it does have significantly higher ground clearance than the typical 911. This is a striking departure from our usual low-slung sports car, and yet it is not. Outlandish, since Safari-spec car variants have a long tradition. Although this rendition of a sports coupe has never been sold directly by Porsche, the German company is no stranger to off-road versions of the 911.

New spy shots appear to confirm that at least one of the two Safari concepts (there was also a Macan) created in recent years will receive a production version.

Caught in trials at the Nürburgring, the prototype has a “raised” suspension and slightly modified bumpers to improve entry and exit angles. It also appears to have wheel arch extensions attached, which could be a sign of wider ruts on both axles.

An educated guess tells us the 911 Safari will have all-wheel drive, so we wouldn’t be too surprised if it is based on at least the Carrera 4S. As for whether it will be on a par with the rest of the 911 family, or whether it will be an exclusive offer from the German brand, it’s too early to say.

The official debut of the off-road version of the 911 may take place before the end of this year or early 2022, since the first such prototype was spotted back in October 2020.

Not so long ago, AutoTimesNews wrote that a reduced copy of the legendary racing Porsche 917/30 is being sold at auction. The renowned auction house RM Sotheby’s will put up for auction a very exact replica of the legendary Porsche 917/30 race car from 13 to 14 August. The replica received the prefix Junior to its name.

The new UK car company will launch its first model called the Vertige Wells Vertige, a sports car with a mid-engine weighing 850 kg from the UK.

Wells Motor Cars, a new UK carmaker, is poised to launch its first model, the Vertige, on the market. Designed for limited production, it is a lightweight mid-engined sports car with a monocoque chassis and a Ford engine.

According to Autocar, development began in 2014 by founder Robin Wells. He wanted to buy the perfect sports car but couldn’t find one on the market. Engineer Robin Hall of Hall Engineering became project manager in 2016. After seven long years of development, the car is finally ready for the road.

The Vertige is based on a steel monocoque chassis with tubular subframes and a steel roll cage providing a torsional rigidity of 47,000 Nm. Composite body panels with sexy curves and double-sided doors look like a mixture of British classics with a TVR touch. It has compact dimensions: a length of 4.0 m and a width of 1.75 m, but the most important thing is a low weight of 850 kg.

The model is equipped with a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter Ford engine producing 208 hp. and 210 Nm as standard. Acceleration from 0 to 96 km / h takes 4.8 seconds. The maximum speed is over 225 km / h. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a 6 speed manual transmission.

In the two-seater cockpit, we find a beautiful analogue instrument cluster behind a leather three-spoke steering wheel, Alcantara upholstery on the dashboard, a wooden gear knob on the high center tunnel, and a modern 7-inch touchscreen on the dashboard.

Equipment includes navigation, Bluetooth, DAB radio, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, two USB ports, two speakers and an additional air conditioner. As for the luggage compartment, there is a 206-liter compartment in the back and an additional 15-liter trunk next to the spare wheel.

Wells Vertige will make its official debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. The first seven examples of the car will be produced by Hall Engineering by the spring of 2022, and they are already talking about them. In the future, serial production is planned at the new Well plant located in Itchington.

Unique 1954 Porsche 356 Coupe to be auctioned https://www.byri.net/2021/07/08/unique-1954-porsche-356-coupe-to-be-auctioned/ https://www.byri.net/2021/07/08/unique-1954-porsche-356-coupe-to-be-auctioned/#respond Thu, 08 Jul 2021 17:03:04 +0000 https://www.byri.net/2021/07/08/unique-1954-porsche-356-coupe-to-be-auctioned/ The unique 1954 Porsche 356 Coupe will go under the hammer at RM Sotheby’s.

The unique 1954 Porsche 356 Coupe will go under the hammer at RM Sotheby’s. This car was specially prepared for participation in the races, but never took part in them. The car that racer Walter Glöckler worked on looks pretty pretty.

Beauty exists in the eye of the beholder, but this 1954 Porsche 356 Carrera 1500 Coupe is hardly beautiful, especially when compared to other versions of the 356. However, this car is very important as a one-of-a-kind race car. The coupe is part of the RM Sotheby’s auction in Monterey, California, USA, which runs from August 13-14.

Walter Glöckler was an accomplished racer who competed in both two and four-wheeled vehicles.

Starting in the late 1940s, he also built racing cars, which often used Volkswagen and Porsche components.

His seventh race car was a coupe, which is now listed at RM Sotheby’s. Mr. Glöckler built it for the 1954 Mille Miglia, but according to his own story, the car was not ready in time. The car raced Liège-Rome-Liège with Walter’s cousin Helm Glöckler at the wheel. Unfortunately, due to technical problems, the coupe was not competitive.

This Glöckler-Porsche is nothing like the regular 356. The differences start at the front with a pair of large round headlights. However, there are two smaller rectangular lights on the front bumper and a large Cyclops eye in the center.

The doors have a separate glass section at the top that widens the roof opening. This gives the entire cabin a more spacious look and probably makes it easier to get into the car. The rear window is another notable difference from all 356s. It is divided into sections but covers the sides of the body. With so much glass, visibility becomes another attribute of this machine. There are tiny fins on the back sides. It’s a 1950s styling element that is a visually intriguing touch to this little car.

Not so long ago, our publication wrote that Porsche, Rimac and Bugatti have created a new enterprise for the production of hypercars. Electric brand Rimac and French hypercar brand Bugatti are now one company.

Recently “stolen” photos of camouflaged prototypes allowed us to imagine what the next convertible from Mercedes, which could be called CLE, will look like. From there, it was only a short step to get an idea of ​​what a CLE Coupé would look like. Because even if no test copy of this closed model has yet been seen, his next arrival is more than likely.

A new model at Mercedes

The name CLE which belongs to Mercedes is not used in the current range, this model should have the right to its own visual identity.

Mercedes hybrid badge

Mercedes CLE electrified are to be expected.

This could be inspired by the design of the largest CLS with a relatively low grille, a very openwork front face evoking sportiness, and a “fastback” profile. At the front as at the rear, fine lights should accentuate the dynamism of the whole. The rear seats will probably be more generous than on board the next SL. Under the hood, one can expect to find four-cylinder engines with varying levels of electrification.

The CLE presented in 2022?

From a size point of view and compared to the competition, the Mercedes CLE could be inserted between the BMW Series 4 and Series 8. It can be expected to replace the E-Class Coupé and Cabriolet, models previously named CLK, and according to some rumors it would take over from the two-door C-Class at the same time. This positioning remains to be confirmed, however, which will require a little more patience since the CLE, if that is what it is called, could not be presented until in 2022 for an arrival in concessions in early 2023.

The 2022 coupe has tried on modern styling with retro proportions. Both the available options, 230i and M240i xDrive, only work with an automatic transmission.

BMW has unveiled the new generation BMW 2 Series with a two-door coupe body and relatively compact dimensions. Many refer to this model as the spiritual successor to the legendary 2002 1960s and 1970s.

Before us is one of the most conservative BMWs in recent history: the coupé has retained the long bonnet of its predecessors, which clearly denotes its rear-wheel drive architecture. The 2 Series will no longer be available with a manual transmission, with a standard eight-speed automatic for both models: the 230i rear-wheel drive and the M240i xDrive all-wheel drive.

The novelty has avoided many non-standard design decisions of current BMW models. For example, there are no “giant” grille nostrils. The bulge on the hood looks just like the E46 M3.

The 230i front bumper has a thin, wide center air intake and two vertical slots, while the more aggressive M240i xDrive gets unusual triangular vents in the corners. Convex front and rear wheel arches remind us of the old 1-Series M. At the stern, there are taillights with a new angular design and black housings.

The 230i comes standard with chrome décor, although the optional Shadowline package replaces the high-gloss details with high-gloss black. The M240i gets Cerium Gray trim, a copper finish that is also found on the M340i Sedan and M440i Coupe. Inside, the Series 2 resembles its counterparts with a digital instrument cluster and a high-positioned hexagonal touchscreen, while the door panels receive an original mosaic pattern.

The base engine for the 230i is a 2.0-liter inline-four turbo with 255 horsepower. The M240i’s three-liter inline-six turbocharged engine develops an incredible 382bhp. Both motors are more powerful than the outgoing 2nd series. The 230i will accelerate to hundreds in 5.5 seconds, and the M240i will reduce this time to 4.1 seconds. The transmission is an eight-speed Steptronic transmission. The new coupe has become more agile in sporty driving and its architecture has become even more rigid. A-pillars and five-link rear suspension come standard.

The 230i gets an optional M Sport suspension option that includes stiffer versions of the standard kit, while the M240i comes standard with an M Adaptive Suspension, where continuously variable dampers provide a softer ride and quicker response. The 230i comes standard with 18 “wheels, and 19” wheels are optional, although they come standard on the M240i.

For the first time, the new Series 2 is equipped as standard with a comprehensive range of active driver assistance and safety systems. These are, for example, automatic emergency braking, frontal collision warning, lane keeping and blind spot monitoring systems and much more. With the change of generation, the 2022 BMW 2 Series added a bit in size and became heavier. At the same time, the volume of the trunk has become more modest. There are no prices for the 2nd series yet, and we are not waiting for budget price tags. The current 230i starts at $ 35,900, while the 2021 M240i xDrive starts at $ 48,350. The most affordable 230i is expected to be priced at a minimum of $ 40,000, while the M240i could cost $ 50,000 excluding options. The novelty will reach dealers in November.

Meanwhile, the powerful 2022 Volkswagen Golf R station wagon debuted. The novelty, in addition to a more efficient motor, got a special drift mode.
