Audi does it again with the TT clubsport quattro
Nowadays if you want a great engine you go to Audi.This became a fact these days when the German manufacturer released unde the hood of the TT a new monster:300 HP squeezed from 2 litres.The car is called Audi TT clubsport quattro and will is a cabrio.The windshield is changed,and has no upper lip and the side windows took a dive to the back.And because we talk about a actual (limited edition) driving car,safety has also been taken into consideration.
The interior has been worked at and seems to be better that in an normal TT with the black-orange combination.
But the best part remains the engine,a engineering feet.The petrol 2 litre power plant develops 300 HP,obviously helped by a turbo.That means over 150 HP/litre,wich is remarcable,even for a turbo engine.As you could have guessed from the name,the car has ALW and the shifting will be hadled by an S-Tronic gear box with duble cluch disks.The brakes came of an Audi TTS and the suspenssion has been tinkered with.
All we expect now are the price tag and the actual car in stores.
The new Mercedes-Benz E-class coming soon
Spies form “Car” magazine managed to catch a glimpse of a prototype during testing. It was undoubtedly the M-B, as the front fascia seems like a mix between the CLS’ swoop headlightings and the consecrated C and S class eyes. Underneath the E-class there’s the new W212 mid-size sedan platform using conventional hydraulic stoppers in favor of electronic breaking used in the past and much disliked by most dealers. Suspension on the other hand is backed-up by a lot of electronics utilizing M-B’s ABC (Action Body Control) system with four link suspension and multi-link rear arrangement. What’s Mercedes without its electronic gizmos? Some of them are the new electronic read-sign reading system or nightvision.
Everything is powered-up by a multitude of gasoline or diesel powered engines, including the 6,2 liter V8 form AMG.
