The Hyundai has been the Kona N at Nurburgring, since the development of the model is in the final stages, with the production of the model to start next July. The ona N will become the first four-wheel drive model of the company's N division and is expected to wear the 2.0-liter turbo engine with 275 horsepower, which will be combined with both the 6-speed manual transmission and the new 8-speed DCT automatic transmission. Aesthetically, the Kona N will acquire a dynamic personality, as Hyundai will replace the black plastic protective perimeters of the body with new ones painted in the color of the body. In addition, the fast SUV will feature a new grille, side skirts, an aggressive diffuser and two large exhaust tips. Finally, he will wear 19-inch wheels, which will hide large brakes with red calipers.

Somewhere in Chicago, USA, the driver of a truck was so unhappy with his boss that he did not hesitate to dismantle his white Ferrari GTC4Lusso , falling on it with a company truck.  The reason for this act has not been clarified at this time. Other reports say the owner of the company wants to stop paying his drivers, so one of them decided to drop the truck on Ferrari. Other reports suggest the driver was fired and retaliated by throwing the truck at the Italian car, while other reports say the boss had promised to drive a new truck this year, but his poor performance led the company owner to change. his decision. So the driver avenged him, falling with the truck on his GTC4Lusso.

Audi's next-generation A7 has finally leaked online, although it's not exactly what we were expecting. Instead of it being spotted in traffic or hidden away somewhere for a photo shoot, it's been revealed to us as a scaled down toy model by Dutch website Auto Week. At first sight, it's pretty much exactly what we expected. Sitting on top of the automaker's MLB Evo platform is an exterior that reminds us of the Prologue Concept here and there, while staying faithful to the A7 Sportback name. It's got the wider hexagonal front grille, slimmer headlights and an overall more modern appearance than the current A7. Visually, it should slot in quite nicely below the all-new A8, featuring plenty of semi and even fully-autonomous systems of its own.

Bigger changes occur in the cabin as designers added a new Touch Pro Duo infotainment system that features two 10-inch touchscreen displays. The company didn't stop there as they installed new 24-way power front seats, revised switchgear, and updated door panels. The rear seats are also new as they can recline by up to 40 degrees and be set to one of 25 different massage programs. Other highlights include a new 12-inch digital instrument cluster, a 4G Wi-Fi hotspot, and several new charging ports. Under the hood, there's a new plug-in hybrid powertrain that consists of a 2.0-liter four-cylinder petrol engine, an electric motor, and a 13.1 kWh lithium-ion battery pack. This setup enables the model to produce a combined maximum output of 404 PS (297 kW) and 640 Nm (472 lb-ft) of torque. In terms of performance, the Range Rover PHEV can accelerate from 0-60 mph in 6.4 seconds, hit a top speed of 137 mph (220 km/h), and travel up to 31 miles (51 km) on electricity al...

The Mercedes CLS kicked off the four-door coupe craze and it appears the latest model won't stray far from the successful formula. Recently caught in Germany, this prototype is largely devoid of camouflage and it gives us our best look at the third-generation CLS. As you can see, the model has a familiar appearance buts it eschews the heavily stylized character lines of its predecessor. The pictures also show a sleeker trunk, a relatively small sunroof, and a chromed dual exhaust system. Inside, the car has a traditional instrument cluster and circular air vents. We can also see a leather-wrapped dashboard and what appears to be a three-spoke steering wheel. Mercedes recently lifted the embargo on driving impressions and Autocar reports the CLS will be offered with an assortment of different powertrains. On the petrol side, we can expect a four-cylinder with 295 hp (220 kW) and an inline six-cylinder with 362 hp (270 kW). They will eventually be followed by an AMG...

Another, more production-looking C8 Corvette mule was spotted in camouflage on Wednesday near Cadillac, Michigan. That's a far cry from the company's proving grounds in Milford, meaning the prototype mid-engine Corvettes must be on a road-trip test run. The new shots show a true mid-engine look with a shorter hood and long, sloping rear end, presumably where the engine sits. Its shape looks a lot like a Ferrari 458/488 to us, which bodes well for the upcoming supercar. Speaking of engines, there are a lot of choices for this next world beater; the 650-hp LT4 comes to mind, but a simpler LT1 with 500 horses or so could also work. The other big question we have is price. Will it be a budget mid-engine lightning bolt or a nuclear-powered track monster a la Porsche 911 GT2? That could mean the difference between $100K and $200K. Those different wheels also look like production pieces.

The VW's designers have delivered to the leaders of the company are two different designs, the high ranking to be the ones to decide which of the two will go in production. One proposal is more modern, with another to follow the classic VW's line, and so the decision has to get company executives are not easy. Mechanical will wear new 1.500arides gasoline engines and Volkswagen oil . The new four-cylinder engines, which will replace the existing 1.4 TSI and 1.6 TDI, using the existing architecture, but with increased piston stroke gasoline engine in order to increase the capacity and a reduced diameter in a diesel engine to reduce the capacity. You have the technology "cylinder-on-demand" to "close" the two inner cylinders when power requirements are reduced to reduce fuel consumption, direct injection and supercharged new generation. Let me add that these two engines will gain and little brother in the form of a three-cylinder 1000AP. The new en...
