BMW continue actively to be developed. But so that the increase in sales would be for permanent Bavarians it is necessary to constantly renew a model number in order not to give to competitors to push company from the conquered positions. In the next three years BMW will represent the sleeping compartment, cabriolets, specialists, sportkary and crossovers; moreover each model will be created in the firm style of company, i.e., it will make it possible "to obtain pleasure from the driving". the  Samaya important novelty of concern soon - this second generation of vsedorozhnika X5. automobile will become more, it is more powerful and it is richer in that equipped. At first novelty will appear on the market OF THE USA, where is produced X5, and to 2007 BMW X5 of the second generation it will appear also in Europe. Main change - vsedorozhnik will become longer to approximately 10 centimeters, what will close draw it nearer according to this index the basic competitor - Meredes- benzo M- class. Length BMW X5 will grow in essence due to the rear overhang, which will make it possible to mark in the luggage compartment the third row of seats and, thus, to increase the capacity of automobile to seven passengers. True, luggage seats will be "children's" and adult person hardly will agree to conduct on them more or less long trip. There will be changes also in the technical plan - BMW improved the complete drive X -Drive, which now more sensitively will react to the "actions" of each of the wheels in order to in time redistribute moment between the bridges. In this case the driver will be able to control these his eyes - X5 will be obtained the lightened version of system iDriver with the large monitor. From other new-fashioned chips, which will be proposed to buyers for the additional payment - the display, which projects data to the windshield, the radar of "night vision" and the radar of system Distronic with the extended functional. Under the cowling in the second generation of vsedorozhnika will be hidden already well familiar on other models 6 and 8- drum engines, and diesel version will be equipped with 3- liter engine with two turbines, which practically prevent "turboyamy". Rumors about the fact that top- version X5 will be equipped with 12- drum engine from "seven" so they remained rumors - in BMW solved, which to adapt the system of complete drive under this engine is too dear. Most likely, at the apex it will stand turbine engine V8 with a power of more than 400 hp furthermore, BMW X5 will be obtained the hybrid power unit, which at present is developed in the alliance with General Motors and DaimlerChrysler. To the expectation of the fans of the sport automobiles BMW it remained to await still less - already in spring on the market will appear renovated rodster Z4 with the slightly retouched appearance, the new bumpers and protivotumankami. It is much more under the body of changes. BMW Z4 Will be obtained the three-liter engine with a power of 265 hp and 2,5- liter in two versions - with a power of 177 and 218 hp by base version will become BMW Z4 2..0i power of 150 hp all these versions in the base will be equipped with six-stage gearbox, and the future owners of automobiles with the 6- drum engines smog for the additional payment to order sport "automaton" with the podrulevymi lobes of gearshift. Well and, naturally, the hearts of worshippers BMW must subjugate version M, which will be outwardly characterized by aerodynamic packet and dual branch pipes of exhaust system. Under the cowling in BMW Z4M will be hidden in-line by "six" volume of 3,2 liters, power of which is 343 hp. With this engine of rodster it will be accelerated to 100 km/h less than in 5 s., and maximum speed will compose traditional for the German automobiles 250 km/h. True, according to some data, M GmbH will for the additional payment preparedly remove electronic "collar", as a result of which the maximum speed of automobile will grow to 300 km/h. Version Z4M will obtain the hydraulic amplifier of the control (in contrast to the the usual Z4 which it will be equipped with amplidyne) - according to the engineers of company this will increase the accuracy of control.  Letom of the following year will appear the closed version Z4 - Z4 Coupe, which is positioned as the rival of such automobiles as Porsche Cayman and Mercedes- benzo SLK. M GmbH it will succeed and here, but sleeping compartment will be equipped with "old" 6- drum engine, whereas by familiar on M3.  Letom of the following year for the market will leave cabriolet M6. however, they will end on this of variation with the soft top in Bavaria. In the spring of 2007 on the market will appear the cabriolet on the base of the third series, which will be equipped with the added rigid top. In this case BMW is not intended to reject also the "usual" sleeping compartment of the third series. Is connected this with the fact that to many drivers is necessary precisely sport (read - racing) automobile BMW with the appropriate hardness of body and razvesovkoy. In the spring of 2007 of the expectation will be of voznagrazhdeny version M3, which will obtain the engine with a power of more than 400 hp later for the market it must leave the lightened on the maximum version M3 CSL. furthermore, M GmbH insists on what for concern is vitally necessary sedan and specialist M3 -, in order to fight with Audi and its R Pravda, until all entreaties of engineers run into the unwillingness of the division of marketing to check the possible risks of this project. At the end of the following year will be opened new chapter in the history of the model number BMW - for the market it will leave sleeping compartment, created on the base of the first series. Faster this automobile will bear the index of the second series. to  Nu and finally in the number of projects of Bavarian company be registered miniven with all-wheel drive as competitor R-klassu from Mercedes- benzo, crossover X6 and sport rodster Z9 as "fan- penalty", i.e., the automobile of weekend. For the first time in entire its history the American institute of road safety (IIHS) conducted tests to the reliability of minivenov in the lateral collisions. Among the broken machines they proved to be Toyota Sienna, Nissan Quest, Honda Odyssey and Ford Freestar, which sufficiently badly showed themselves in previous series kr3w- tests IIHS. At this time in the tests was simulated the collision with the extra-road builder or the pick-up, which will go across. This situation can arise, for example, if one of the drivers disrupts rules and intersects cross-road to the red light of light signal. Three minivena with the lateral pillows in the base assembly - Toyota Sienna, Nissan Quest, and Honda Odyssey - obtained the highest general mark. Sienna and Quest also was obtained the title "best pick" - the "best selection" in the lateral collisions, while Sienna it obtained "best pick" also for the frontal collision. Ford Freestar With the optional lateral pillows was acknowledged "satisfactory". When Freestar and Mazda MPV they were divided without the lateral pillows, which in them go as option, both models obtained estimation "badly".  Maneken of driver MPV strongly broke head about entered into the salon "extra-road builder". Chances would remain, however, to survive in the real emergency specialists IIHS did not accept this as sufficient base for grow prettier estimation. Furthermore, in the real emergency in driver would be broken edges, and the fracture of pelvic bones threatened to rear passenger. In model Freestar without the lateral pillows the pseudo-outsideroad builder almost reached the head of mannequin after the control. The construction of body proved to be not too reliable, and in the absence of lateral pillows the fracture of the bones of chest also threatens to driver. With the lateral impact at the speed of 50 km/h was used the moving object being deformed by the weight of one-and-a-half ton, which was beaten into the driver door. The forward section of this object is made in the form of typical extra-road builder or pick-up. Institute did not take for the tests of model Chevrolet Uplander and Dodge Grand Caravan/Chrysler Town & Country, because exactly now producers finish them and promise to increase safety level with the lateral emergencies. These miniveny, as renovated Kia Sedona will be broken in the beginning of the following year. New braking system Of e.lechtronich wedge brake (EWB), presented by company Siemens VDO is characterized by a number of the innovations, utilized for the conclusion of novelty to the more qualitative level. System for an increase in the intensity of braking automobile uses energy, which is manufactured with the friction of boot-trees against the revolving disk, thanks to which the novelty barely requires the external energy sources. Control of boot-trees the system, which processes information about the speed of rotation of wheels, follows. Sensors remove the information of 100 times per second and determine the necessary force of the pressure of boot-trees. This makes possible to act for model immediately, smoothly, also, without the perceptible expenditures both of the energy and the surface of disk and boot-trees. Furthermore, the installation of system frees in the necessity of use by brake of zhi?.chument.lochation = '/archive/gallery.php?.model_.i.kosti, master brake cylinder and even systems ABS. Ye.lechtronich wedge brake is completely autonomous, but if necessary (for an increase in the safety) it is capable of being integrated cruise by control and similar systems. EWB from Siemens VDO works from the stress into 12 volts, and it is considerably easier than standard hydraulic brakes. V April of the following year L'vov plant "Galacian buses" plans to begin the series production of the buses of middle class. The first two prototypes of new buses will be prezentovany in L'vov prior to the end of this year. On this to correspondent LІGABіznesІnform reported the President of association "L'vov passenger transport" the novel Of loboda. "these will be the buses, designed for 40 places and corresponding to all necessary requirements" middle class ". The cost of one machine will be about 150 tys.grn., and this price will allow enterprise normal to be developed under the market conditions, "- noted R.Loboda. According to him, in the future the plant plans to produce from 30 to 50 machines per month. "on the whole the Ukraine requires approximately in 70 thousand auto-. Those desiring to acquire our buses already exist, but we did not thus far conclude contracts - we await, when buses pass certification ", stated the President of association. Plant "Galacian buses" was opened during September of this year. "the investors of enterprise are the Ukrainian owners, who were combined for the common purpose and created plant. I personally invested into the Galacian auto works more than 3 mln.grn. ", stated R.Loboda even it added, to chto"posle of that how enterprise will fix series production, its management it will conduct negotiations with the important foreign companies ". New Skoda Os.tavia automobile with the body of the type "specialist" excellently is sold in Europe and pretends to the title "commercial Heath". The basic merit of Czech model is the fact that it is extremely spacious. But the large and unsteady back of automobile kills into not all sport notes - Os.tavia is experienced deficiency in the sport nature. For this reason company Abt Sportsline, which carries out the finishing of the running characteristics of all models of group VW, developed the rule of sport equipment for Skoda Os.tavia with the body of the type "specialist". After engineering studies, designer Abt they developed the program of modernization specially for the large Czech model. Abt Sportsline Readjusts the control unit of 1.9- liter turbodizelem TDI and it attains from the motor of the delivery 130 hp of power. The motor with a volume of 2.0 liters in version TDI also obtains new tuner and develops the power in 170 hp of the modernizations, carry ouied Abt, in no way they harm the longevity of engine and gearbox, but noticeably improve the dynamic indices of machine. The trump of changes in those produced in Ocnavia, Abt Sportsline is considered a change in the suspension of specialist, where appeared zhestk?.chument.lochation = '/archive/gallery.php?.model_.i.e spring. Landing the body of automobile was reduced on entire 35 millimeters, which gives much more sport form to specialist. However, more essential gain is noticeable in an improvement in the dynamics of motion. Because of the progressive characteristic of springs, transportation means answers the turnings of control considerably more precise reaction and rapid adjustment in that indicated by driver direction. Furthermore, Abt equips Skoda with its own models of the wheel disks: model Abt Z4 of the dimensionality of "..shchkhy"dyuymov with tires 225/45 r17 and analogous cast disks to the 18th radius Abt Z6 with tires 225/40 r18. Salon Skoda also reminds one of intrusion in the construction of the automobile of specialists from Abt. Under the right hand of driver awaits the switch of speeds with emblem Abt aluminum with the skin and firm rugs. As a whole of tyuning the packet from Abt for the the new Os.tavia with the body "specialist" makes the popular model clearly of of more powerful sport and more stylish. V increasingly are more frequent audibly about the automobiles equipped with V-belt variators (CVT). Abbreviation is deciphered as follows - CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission), that can be transferred as transmission with the smoothly variable gear ratio. This new type of transmission is established on the automobiles of different models, including all leading Japanese companies for the production of automobiles. Let us examine the operating principle and those advantages, which gives the new transmission based on the example of developments in this region in company NISSAN.
NISSAN lead in the world on the development of gearboxes with the continuously changing gear ratio - CVT (the trade name - Hyper CVT). On the produced in England model MICRA the gearbox CVT is established since 1992. However, CVT, installed to the automobiles of segment D c 1997 - the discovery completely new sphere of action. With this transmission they began to equip models PRIMERA, BLUEBIRD, AVENIR with 1.8 and 2- X with liter engines. These machines - not only first auto- from segment D, on which is established CVT, but also the first in the world automobiles with the two-liter engine and this gearbox.
Variator CVT gives driver the possibility of the selection of the state of motions, analogous to the usual automatic boxes: P-r-n-d- l. in the new box CVT M-6 with the possibility of the selection of fixed gear ratios, the traditional cut is to the right of located one more, on which the lever of selector can be moved to the positive signs or "minus", that indicate increase or reduction in the transfer.
With the lever of selector, which is located in this cut, driver can use one of six fixed gear ratios. This lever can be simply moved forward - back for the switching to the increasing or reducing gear. The new gearbox CVT M-6 proposes to driver more than possibilities with the selection of state of motion: calm, weakened with the automatic regime or is more dynamic with the manual.
Use of a traditional automatic box leads to the increased expenditure of fuel as a result of the internal frictional losses and slip in the constantly revolving parts of the planetary reducers and furthermore the start and the disconnection of transfers can cause the same jerks as with the unsuccessful gearshift in the manual transmission. However, use CVT makes it possible to economize to 20% of fuel, in comparison with the use of a usual automatic box.
V CVT planetary reducers and their connecting elements are substituted with two pulleys of variable diameter, connected with the segmented steel belt. One of the pulleys is leading (by set into rotation engine) and, etc. - slave, from which goes the drive to the wheels. Drive is included through electromagnetic coupling. System is disposed to the optimum use of a regime of the work of engine and ensures ideal smoothness with a change of transmission ratio.
In order to use the larger torque of two-liter engine, in the the new CVT is used wider and stronger steel belt, and control system of pulleys works hearth by the higher pressure of liquid in the main. The drive of guide pulley is regulated by the hydraulic converter, similar to the usual automatic transmissions, instead of electromagnetic coupling. This hydraulic converter is allowed for the automobile, equipped with the new CVT, to slowly move with the tempered brake pedal, which facilitates parking and trogan'e on the lifts.
In order to avoid the increased fuel consumption traditional for the hydraulic converter, NISSAN developed its locking apparatus. Because of it, the difference in the consumption of fuel of automobiles with the manual transmission and CVT or CVT M-6 is very small. Therefore driver, who stopped selection at any of these transmissions, can use all advantages of usual automatic gearbox, combining them with the perfection and the low consumption of fuel CVT
as all systems of new transmission, blocking the hydraulic converter, which performs the role of cohesion, it is checked by electronics. Monitor unit CVT governs all its functions and knots: by hydraulic converter, by hydraulic oil pump, strictly by gearshift, including rear, and also by the manual mode of operation CVT M-6.
The activated by selector, manual regime CVT M-6 select one of six previously programmed gear ratios. Five of them are close to the gear ratios of usual manual gearbox, the sixth - is optimally selected for the economical motion at the high speed. Further driver changes gears by the simple motions of selector forward - back. For example, with the switch oned fifth transfer, what luminesces on the special scale of the panel of instruments, two motions of selector they back indicate passage to third transfer, one forward - to the sixth.
System was developed together with the new engines and the chassis of automobile on an enormous quantity of roads of Great Britain, Europe and Japan. The switch time of transfers is optimized and it is considerably more rapid than the switch time on the manual box. On the automobile, equipped CVT M-6, the driver just as rapidly and smoothly changes gears, which especially reduce, because it should be adjusted slightly under the engine revolutions and press clutch pedal.
As the alternative, standard CVT have the sport regime, controlled by button on the selector. In this regime the transmission works in the region of the engine revolutions, at which is reached maximum the power and, as a result, more rapid acceleration and braking by engine. Sport regime for the first time appeared on this variator CVT.
V conclusion let us note that CVT is where the more advanced type of transmission in comparison with the traditional automatic gearboxes. Perfection is manifested in the more best dynamics of acceleration, the smaller fuel consumption, the smoother ride in the automobiles of those equipped with V-belt variators. And in also the time, CVT is simpler by the construction than traditional "automata". It seems that in the near future the automobiles equipped CVT will completely extrude the machines, equipped with usual "automata" and will strongly make room machines with the "mechanics".
The German concern Volkswagen obtained reward "best innovator of 2005" from the konsaltingovoy company A.T. Kearney and publication WirtschaftsWoche. The ceremony of rewarding took place on 7 November in Berlin. Judges sentenced company reward after "rapid introduction of new technologies in the process of production". Also Volkswagen were obtained reward in the general category "processes and supporting factors" for a constant use of virtual technologies in the development of new production. Company it is even in the middle of the 90th annual it saw the concealed potential of virtual technologies and their beginning actively to use. From September 2004 Volkswagen it injected in the process of work revolutionary technology 3D for the complete visualization of objects.  Dva of the unique of center with the cost of 20 million Euro- were used by specialists VW during entire process of development of models, which made its more rapid and cheaper.  V of judges entered the chapter of the European department A.T. Kearney, editor WirtschaftsWoche, the secretary of the ministry of the economy and Labor, the President of company Fraunhofer Gesellschaft and the speaker of the administration of the bank of restoration Kreditanstalt fur Wiederaufbau. Hot Moscow seems by the hence distant cool north. In Toskane - 36 it is higher than zero. And it did be worthwhile to fly here on the transfer almost the whole day for not the fundamentally new, but altogether of that only of modernized Of "mazdy-'"?
V this weather the main thing in the automobile - conditioner! ?.chument.lochation = '/archive/gallery.php?.model_.i.procem, after glancing at the Tuscan roads - uzen'kiye paper streamers with the lifts and the descents, with many turnings (frequently - closed, sly), "was brought": here there is where to feel automobile...
V TO ITS PLATE
scrutinize appearance I will be then, during the photographing. Especially as changes in general a little. It is sooner into the cool machine. It is good!
Renewed salon noticeably. Upholsterings appear higher-quality, it is more expensive. Also send metallic inserts to panel and edgings of instruments to interior for the benefit. Generally, in my opinion, uncomfortably it is also in the very expensive automobile. Let us say, if buttons and levers with the incomprehensible symbols - sorting, if is superfluously complex control algorithm of "music" or by navigation. "mazda" immediately arranged to itself by intelligible control elements, by convenient seat, assembly "moderately". There is everything that must: receiver - with D- record player, the conditioner, which is easily managed the incandescent surrounding air. Well and the absence of the device of launching engine without the key and the seats with the memory for khetchbeka with the motor 1,8 l is completely logical.
Characteristics of this engine touched up, after making a "shelf" of torque flatter. Like all the remaining motors "mazdy-'", it satisfies 1,8- liter the standards of Euro- IV.
In motion the automobile precisely of such as you present it. It pulls exactly, although is a little pensive - friendliness to nature free of charge is not given. Motor issues no sport pickups, but it conveys reliably and confidently, without making it necessary to superfluously frequently change gears. For the calm motion even along the paper streamer with the sharp turns the fourth- third is sufficient. Only very hot driver will tuck in the second. But there is whether sense to turn motor to 5000?
Well matched with the impression from the engine and other sensations. Noise, with which the designers of firm, after agreeing with the criticism, fought especially persistently, it is now low. Suspension with the changed silent blocks, the shock absorbers and the springs is moderately soft, is comfortable. Automobile does not vex "bumkan'em" on the numerous and diverse unevennesses of provincial Italian paths. It is boring? Completely no!
To that it and mountain road in order to try machine in the turnings. Especially as brake is understood me from the half word. But, going in the turn, I will try to remain on its strip. Counter, although it is infrequent, they fall, indeed this Italians - drivers as rule, hot. Yes even generally - not on ralli.
Well that, "mazda", you will manage? Completely! Certainly, not without the participation of the stabilization system, which is interfered in the process, however, it is very delicate. By the way, for the automobiles, sold in Russia, DSC now in the base assembly.
V general, 1,8- liter "six" do not irritate by low speed, it does not interfere with impatient Italians and even makes it possible to pass "those dozed off" on the not very long straight lines however, here without the intermediate speed and u?.chument.lochation = '/archive/gallery.php?.model_.i.rajneni4 "gas - into the floor" not to manage. And all this pleasure for the elongation of 150 mountain kilometers took the shape of some 8,3 l to hundred. It is not bad!
ON AVRELIYEVOY TO ROAD
alas, more than two automobiles in one incomplete day you will not try. Therefore I select machine with the 2- liter engine (it they changed most noticeably, after adding 6 hp and also a little correcting the characteristic of torque) and the new mechanical gearbox - six-stage. All this - in the red specialist. Even it is good, indeed the part of the second test section will pass along the so-called Avreliyevoy road. Other builders of ancient Rome gave direction to contemporary superhighway, after laying way from the capital of empire to Marseille. Thus, I will consider this route tourist. Is it's a pity, specialist in me with the minimum load. This, by the way, is very noticeable: empty automobile with the suspension, calculated for the solid load, is noticeably harder than khetchbeka, yes even it is noisier. Luggage shelf from behind reminds one of itself, and wheels, falling on unevenness, transfer about them information into the large resonant salon.
Two-liter motor, of course, pomoshchneye 1,8- liter. But in order quickly to be poured into the flow on the highway, it is necessary to mobilize almost all its possibilities. Let us consider, true, that in Italy, as a rule, exceed the speed limit not to 10 as in the majority of the European countries, but on all 30 km/h. And almost as, frequently prevent the "police counter about that harboring on the curb stradale", i.e., by road.
Ugh! It were poured! And like no one it prevented. Here now and the sixth transfer will prove useful. Confident, powerful thrust - approximately from 90 km/h, and to 120 pointers of tachometer - on mark 3000. Completely economical for this speed regime.
Offshoot Of avreliyevoy road brought to the narrow by-streets Of pizy. Here and the stand, where For "mazdu" it is necessary to leave. To come out from the cool salon into incandescent Tuscan air greatly does not want. But to part sadly and for another reason. In the incomplete day it perceived moderately dynamic, economical, comfortable, but well controlled "six" - with its.
THAT WHEN, HOW MUCH?
Did become dearer "mazda-'"? Yes, but the initial assembly Base (rekomendovannaya price - $23 400) includes now the stabilization system (DSC), protivobuksovochnuyu (TCS), and also "breyk essist" (EVA). Here - radio tape recorder with S.D, true, instead of the climatic installation - conditioner. It is necessary to pay the remainder for the automatic gearbox (with motor 1,8 - only mechanical), the device of access without the key, the seats with the memory, the sensor of rain and other navoroty.
Diesel "sixes", whose portion in world sales of about 50%, in Russia thus far as before not will be. A question, foggily report representatives "mazdy", is solved.
Then soon here will appear "mazda-.'MPS" with the complete drive and the 260- strong motor - if you want, answer "Mitsubishi- lancer evolyushn OF THE VIII". This transmission they will allot also specialist with increased on 10 mm road clearance 2,3 activematic: they will also sell it in Russia. Two modifications will reach here, similarly, exactly the winter - outstanding time for the tests of all-wheel-drive machines. It is interesting, let us join with them by natures so easily as with that renovated Of "mazdoy-'"?
With THE SIGHT NA "IT IS EXCELLENT"
modernizing "mazdu-'", designers strengthened the elements of the body (in the diagram - they were isolated red). The representatives of firm assert: on tests EuroNccAP the automobile will earn the highest mark - five stars. Will be realized the hopes Of "mazdy", we learn, apparently, entirely soon.
Company Toyota Motor takes aside 246 592 automobiles. The sedans Crown and microbuses Hiace of release 1998 - 2005 among them, on which the company revealed the possibility of the corrosion of some details of engine. Representative Toyota Motor Corp. said in the official statement that until the automobiles answer only in Japan, however, company examines the possibility of the opinion of 1,05 million automobiles of the same models, sold abroad. Into the list of the countries, where were exported automobiles, enter Australia, Thailand, Indonesia, India and European countries. It is accurately known only that not one model with the data by defect not was sold into THE USA and Canada. Problem consists in the cap of bolt in the engine, which can because of the entry of liquid rust and cause troubles in the work of engine up to the total stoppage. Now company studies the standards of safety in the different countries, where machines were exported, since in each country its rules of the opinion of automobiles. Toyota were obtained 169 complaints from the motorists, who reported about the sudden stopping of automobiles, uncommon noise and vibrations; however, not there it was not one communication about the emergencies and the injuries. Let us recall that in the past month Toyota was carried out its largest opinion, under which burn 1,27 million automobiles 17- TI of models in connection with the defect in the electrician, because of whom could go out the headlights. There is no doubt that enormous influence on the developers showed legendary Pajero Evo 2002 of release, the conqueror of ralli- raid Paris- Dakar. Design of both automobiles in many respects is similar. The first L200 appeared to the light as early as 1978. Much water flowed away since then, and here Mitsubishi in 27 years continues the development of its pick-up. However, within this period the purposeful audience of extra-road builder did not change. These are the amateurs of rigid off-rouda, which 0 0N throughout the world is counted several tens of millions. It suffices to say that only in Europe since 1996 it was sold more than 340 to 000 l200. In Europe Mitsubishi Motors Europe it plans to sell more than 35 000 renovated pick-ups L200 in yr l200 it will be produced in three versions: two-place, 4- local two-door and 4- local four-door. Five-meter monster is set in motion by 2,5- liter Diesel engine, is equipped to the selection either of mer.chument.lochation = '/archive/gallery.php?.model_.i.anicesko1 with 5- stepped or automatic 4- stepped by gearboxes. "onboard" new L200 is capable to take to 1 ton of load, and also to come out in the role of present tractor, towing transportation means with a mass of up to 2,7 tons. Air cushions are the basic means of safety in each model Lexus since 1989, when made a debut LS400. since then technology, design and design constantly were improved, and as a result on new Lexus IS 250 was represented new, more effective development. This automobile, created on the last word of technology in the region of the protection of passengers, is equipped with the first in the world dual chamber pillow of safety. In contrast to the usual pillows, which consist of one section, in new version their two. Being fanned, they create the deepening in the middle, used for face as unique "cradle", and they distribute the pressure of the operated pillow on other parts of the head, arms and upper part of the body. The new pillows of safety are developed on the basis of the concept of general support (Omni- support) and give much less than chances to the passenger of front seat to suffer injury, without a decrease in the level of protection with the first impact. Also all versions new Lexus IS 250, for the first time in the segment of the predstavitel'skikh sedans, are equipped with the pillows, which ensure the protection of elbows for the driver and front passenger. Furthermore, in the model are established the lateral pillows of safety of larger volume, which will enlarge the protected area. In all in the base assembly on all versions of the new Lexus there will be eight pillows of safety, which will protect driver and passengers of front and rear seats from each side of salon. Lexus IS 250 will appear on the European markets prior to the end of this year. JOINT STOCK COMPANY "trans-Volga motor plant" (ZMZ, to g.Zavolzh'e, Nizhniy-Novgorod region, it enters into the holding JOINT STOCK COMPANY "of Severstal6- auto-") during November 200shchg. will place AO "Ulyanov motor vehicle plant" (UAZ) the first of 100 small-capacity Diesel engines OF ZMZ-SHCHYYAE for the assembly of extra-roads builder Uaz-hunter. As reported in enterprise, scientific research and experimental design works, and also preparation productions in the shop of short runs on the production of engines were carry ouied within the framework of state contract on the development of the family of Diesel engines. At the plant are planned yearly to let out about 4 thousand engines OF ZMZ-SHCHYYAE. Simultaneously on ZMZ is conducted experimental-design work on the creation of the family of Diesel engines with system Common Rail ZMZ-SHCHYYA8, which ensure the fulfillment of the standards "of Euro- -3". Regulation capital OF JOINT STOCK COMPANY "trans-Volga motor plant" (ZMZ, it enters into the holding JOINT STOCK COMPANY "of Severstal6- auto-") is 150 million 312,613 thousand rub and is divided into 112 million 734,49 thousand usual actions and 37 million 578,123 thousand privileged actions by the rating of 1 rub. Control block of shares of enterprise belongs TO AO "Severstal6- auto-". First generation of model was represented in 2003. In this time company Opel sold 0 0N throughout the world more than 500 thousand meriva. The new Meriva even now can be ordered in the European dealers Opel. Orders will begin to carry out 2006 from February. Starting price of miniven in simplest assembly - 14 520 yevro.   
basic changes in the appearance of model touched the radiator grill, front and rear bumpers, design of fog lights. Rear headlights are tonirovany and edged by chromium. In finishing of interior the new forms of materials and color nuances are used. Meriva is equipped with two new motors: 1.3 cdti ECOTEC and 1.6 twinport ECOTEC. The turbodizel'nyy engine with a volume of 1.3 l with the system of injection "common-rail" has a power of 75 hp and it has available in the standard the filter of solid particles.

Here is it - Karlssonchik! After charged S- peppers from such studio as Brabus and Lorinser, to our attention appears the bolide from company Carlsson, which is assembled to officially show it on Essen Motor Show 2005. By its bright and sharp outlines, and also by excellent technical indices, model Carlsson CK50 is the horse of the success of the famous of tyuning of studio from the small town Of mertsig, that it is located practically on the boundary with Luxemburg and France. German specialists were achieved striking results, after boring base 388- strong V8 aggregate to the power by 435 horsepower and the torque in 600 nm. This it occurred because of the special module or by other words to say chip -thningu Motorkit CK50 that also makes it possible to develop Carlsson CK50 maximum speed to 293 km/h and to be accelerated to 100 km/h only in 5,1 second. Thus, technical filling succeeded to the glory, now let us look to the extrinsic ethos of handsome man! Well to konechno-zhe, here one cannot fail to note the supers-disk of bolide under the code name Carlsson 3/11 ultra Light, which were for the first time shown on the auto-salon in Frankfurt, in autumn this year. This three-particle, odinadtsatispitsevyy raisin in the 21- size because of its special, ultra-light alloy, has to 50% less than the weight in comparison with the usual disks of the same size, which considerably is reflected in dynamics and comfort of ride. Thus, front axle Carlsson CK50 is equipped with disks in the 9x21- one inch size with tires Dunlop SP Sport Maxx of dimensionality 255/30 ZR 21, and rear axle - by disks in the 10x21- one inch size with tires Dunlop SP Sport Maxx 285/30 zr21. Let us be expressed simple - to offfffiget'! Sport, complete of forces and into also the time with the special elegance, the given disks place special crown in the optical effect of CK50, making it even more advanced. To hold this pepper on the route, on top of that and with such high speeds not very that is simple; therefore engineers decided to modify the base chassis S500 with the aid of the special "intelligent" module Carlsson C-tronic® suspension, which decreases the road clearance approximately on 30 mm, which considerably improves dynamics and nature of driving with the sharp turns and on auto-Banach. The streamlining about the body is also the crucial point of tyuninga, if we take into consideration the overall sizes of new S- class and its abilities. In order to smooth unevennesses and to lead undesirable airflow, engineers developed the special underweight, which consists of frontally the bumper of that finished by special lip with the whiskers, the rear bumper with the integrated exhaust system and the proportional- arranged diffuser. With the total weight of bolide in 1985 kg. this underweight plays important role in the region of safety and grow prettier dynamics, as the saying goes - "not only eye cuts, but also fig it seems". New Carlsson CK50 is worth not only seeing, but also hearing, in what us will help the special exhaust system, which was prepared from the special high-grade steel and which has four separate catalysts (one to each pipe), average noise-reducing parts and final parts, which is represented in the form of four oval, chrome-plated tips, on two from each side. Internally space CK50 is represented in the best manners of European studio. The successful combination of such materials as al'kantary and suedes, tree and aluminum, create a unique feeling of selfishness and property and it forces it will fall in love with this comfortable corner. On the prices, Carlsson thus far yet made no statements - everything await presentations on Essen Motor Show. Yes nearly they forgot! Besides sealed S- pepper to Essen Motor Show will be represented one additional novelty, or more precisely sealed R-klass, photograph of which we is applied. Lotus decided to the following year to renew its two models - Elise and Exige.
