Il rinnovamento del pick-up medio di Ford passa per l'immancabile Raptor, modello ad alte prestazioni che arriverà anche in Europa. Il motore è il 3.0 V6 EcoBoost che, a causa delle normative europee, produrrà nel nostro continente "soltanto" 288 cv e 491 Nm invece dei 392 cv e 583 Nm previsti per altri paesi fra cui l'Australia (il modello in foto è in AUS-Spec). Per entrambe le varianti il cambio è un automatico a 10 rapporti. Esternamente troviamo subito la griglia con il lettering Ford per esteso, ormai tipica dei Raptor, passaruota allargati, paraurti ad hoc, slitte e protezioni motore in acciaio da 2.3'', ruote da 32'' con cerchioni da 17'' ed altezza aumentata rispetto al Ranger Wildtrak visto qualche tempo fa. All'interno figurano sedili sportivi in pelle ispirati a quelli degli aerei caccia, volante con paddles, impianto audio Bang & Olufsen con 10 altoparlanti, il gigantesco schermo touch da 12'' del Ford SYNC4 e strumentazione digitale. Immancabile anche sul Ranger il selettore di modalità di guida che permette di optare tra Normal, Sport, Slippery, Rock Crawl, Mud/Ruts, Sand e Baja e come visto su Bronco Raptor, anche qui è possibile scegliere il sound degli scarichi a seconda della necessità. Gli ammortizzatori sono dei FOX messi a punto da Ford Performance mentre la corsa delle sospensioni è stata aumentata di 290 mm davanti e di 250 mm dietro. Arriverà dopo l'estate.

In realtà il restyling ci sarebbe anche stato, ma hanno deciso di lasciarlo in America 🤡

Cuore io l'avevo chiamata Bipolare, in verità. Cosa che viene rafforzata molto da Hornet.

Il debutto della DS 7 Crossback Facelift dovrebbe essere previsto per il 14 Aprile. Potrebbe anche chiamarsi DS 7 e basta, ma trattasi di voci.

Sposto in modelli cinesi :')

Ford Italia dirama il listino di Tourneo e Grand Tourneo. Per entrambi i passi sono disponibili 4 allestimenti, Sport incluso. Per me resta Taddeo anyway. Sposto in Ford.

Semplicemente significa che non vogliono spendere molto di piu per una generazione nuova al 100%: data la virata verso l’elettrico, sarà l’ultima Serie 1 ICE che vedremo. Poi beh, che la peggioreranno potrebbe anche esser plausibile conoscendo le follie di Monaco.

Passaggio a quarta generazione e nuovo codice progetto F70

Madonna, Jato Sales ti fa un baffo 😂😂😂

Intanto a Maranello:

Primo muletto pesantemente camuffato dell’aggiornamento di Serie 1, che parrebbe anche essere alquanto sostanzioso data la quantità di camuffature. Verrà intesa come LCI o nuova generazione? @4200blu motor.es

La preferisco al posteriore, ma soltanto perché la fiancata parrebbe un’immane porcata

Non mi convince Non mi piace affatto al momento e spero ancora cambino nome

In India sostituirà la Vento e debutterà l’8 Marzo

Qualche preview per il Lotus & Co. 👀😂 cochespias

Già ordinabile e configurabile sul sito italiano di Porsche! Sposto nella sezione adatta.

Leak per Baleno che disastro 😨

Stando a quanto ho letto, dovrebbe anticipare il SUV EV compatto che potrebbe chiamarsi Scénic.

Il nuovo concept di Renault anticipa un'innovativa piattaforma che permette di combinare un pacco batteria da 40 kW con 16 kW di celle a combustibile. Il risultato sono 800 km con una sola pausa di pochi minuti per fare il pieno di idrogeno e una migliore sostenibilità, grazie a delle batterie più piccole. La sostenibilità è accentuata dal mix di materiali riciclati e riciclabili (che costituiscono il 95% dei materiali totali), che Renault vorrebbe portare in produzione come standard entro il 2030. Lunga 449 cm e con un passo di 283 cm, la vettura anticipa la nuova Scénic E-Tech che uscirà nel 2024 basata sulla piattaforma CMF-EV della Mégane E-Tech. Press Release: A design that opens the way to new perspectives Scénic Vision concept-car is a true embodiment of Renault's "Nouvelle Vague" and the result of a thorough design exercise and bold aesthetic choices. Its design prefigures different time horizons for the Renault range of vehicles. The exterior reveals the shapes and style of a new family model that will be marketed in 2024. Its interior design is a forward-looking study of future Renault interiors. Its hydride electric and hydrogen powertrain, reflects Renault's desire to find solutions for all types of use and is part of a longer-term vision, beyond 2030. This design opens the way to new perspectives, that of a world where cars and people converge towards the same values. “Scénic Vision represents a new chapter in the history of Renault Group and for the brand. This concept prefigures the exterior design of the new Scénic 100% electric model for 2024 and the new Renault design language. The interior design, is a forward-looking study of future Renault interiors. Scénic Vision provides a suite of technologies and innovations at the service of a more sustainable mobility.” . said Gilles Vidal, VP Renault Brand, Design. Renault & Jean-Michel Jarre Jean-Michel Jarre is a French composer, performer and record producer. Coming from the world of electro-acoustic research, he has given electronic music a popular dimension. Jean-Michel Jarre is an artist and also an engineer, he has constantly linked technology and creation. This is very close to how Renault has always seen innovation. JMJ is also highy involved into protecting the environment as a UNESCO ambassador since 1993 (on environment and education topics). The collaboration with Jean-Michel Jarre started in the early days of making Scénic Vision, precisely on the acoustics and signal processing. The artist teamed up with the design team in order to shape the sound signature of the concept-car, following the idea of “caring for the resources” with a “less is more” approach with only 1 loudspeaker on each door and the soundbubble system on every headrest. Scénic Vision sets the beginning of a close collaboration with Jean-Michel Jarre. The artist will be an ambassador of the Renault brand, working with the teams on future solutions to be included into the product lineup. Caring for the resources Eco-design and short loops 70% of the materials used in the vehicle are recycled and over 95% of the vehicle is recyclable, including the battery. The floor of the vehicle was composed by agglomerating plastic scraps from other sources (milk bottles, plastic pipes, etc.). On the whole vehicle, 30% of the plastic is biosourced. The vehicle's fittings are made of recycled carbon from the aeronautical industry. Short loops are being deployed on strategic materials such as platinum, copper, aluminum and steel as well as the battery’s minerals Tires are sourced from a GNSPR member manufacturer, committed to environmental and human rights responsibility. The leather is abandoned and replaced by 100% recycled low carbon polyester. The fuel cell tank is made of carbon fiber from recycled paper waste Better air quality Inside: Placed in the driver's door, an air filter improves the air quality inside the vehicle by filtering the outside air. Outside: The black pigments in the paint are derived from the processing of particles captured in the atmosphere;. a paint without synthetic pigment, which contributes to the improvement of air quality. Caring for the climate The best from electricity and hydrogen H2-Tech technology: a hybrid vehicle, both electric and hydrogen, equipped with a 16kW fuel cell. The H2-Tech technology is based on the "range extender" technology, which makes it possible to carry a battery that is twice as light, for the same range, thus contributing to decarbonization beyond the electrification of the vehicle. Although this solution is a vision for a passenger car, Renault Group through Hyvia (joint venture with Plug Power) already offers H2 solutions on LCVs. In 2030 and beyond, once the network of hydrogen stations is large enough, you will be able to drive up to 800 km – or, for instance, 750 km from Paris to Marseille – without stopping to charge the battery. You will only have to stop for 5 minutes or less to fill the hydrogen tank. Following on from the partnerships already entered into, this vehicle has a carbon footprint that is 75% smaller than that of an electric vehicle such as the Megane E-Tech electric. Its battery is up to 60% less carbon intensive than an equivalent battery, thanks to the use of short loops and low-carbon sourcing of minerals, and the use of low-carbon energy to assemble and produce the battery. Caring for the people Safety Total transparency and visibility A camera system integrated into the front of the vehicle enlarges the driver's field of vision by 24% by retransmitting the immediate environment on a screen positioned on the dashboard. The windshield is thus enlarged to 180° for a total and reassuring visibility, the hood appears transparent. New generation of safety and connected health: Safety Coach A risk assessment interface helps to anticipate last-minute stressful situations. It compensates for the driver's possible lack of attention and gives personalized advice to continuously improve driving habits. This interface also provides personalized health advice to the driver via the analysis of data collected by cameras and connected sensors placed inside the cabin (heart rate, fatigue, etc.). Inclusiveness A vehicle that adapts to its user A facial recognition system allows the door to be opened and the vehicle settings to be adjusted according to the driver's profile. This system also offers the possibility of adapting the driving conditions to a possible handicap. Ultra-personalized and inclusive sound space Each seat is equipped with microphones and loudspeakers to provide its own audio ambience (radio, hi-fi, voice-assisted driving) while maintaining optimal communication on board. The retransmission of the voice of the passengers and the driver, and if necessary the amplification of their voice, facilitates communication between the occupants of the vehicle, in particular if a hearing impaired user is on board. Increased accessibility The absence of a pillar between the doors and a flat floor facilitate access for people with reduced mobility.

Qualche camuffatura in più per l'aggiornamento della Phantom motor.es

Continua la campagna di teasers per Austral Press Release: Hide with style For its " preliminary reveal ", the All-New Renault Austral has been covered with a unique sticker, imagined and designed by François. Truly inspired, the covering enhances rather than detracts from the vehicle’s look. While full of strikingly graphic lines, it nevertheless serves its primary function: that of camouflaging. But it does it with style! The camouflage hides the grille, the edges of the wings, the bonnet, the headlights and the brand logo. There are two main ways that car manufacturers like to keep things under wrap: - fake padding or prosthetic attachments that help conceal the car’s true shape - a sticker covering that acts like a second skin over the car’s body When designing the sticker covering for the All-New Renault Austral, François, kept coming back to two fundamental questions: "Why must you hide something beautiful beneath an ugly façade?” and "Why can’t you hide art with art?“ During World War I, Anglo-Saxon warships used a camouflage called "dazzle" or "razzle dazzle". The ships were entirely covered with very graphic shapes, only in black and white. This strong contrast was intended to break up perspective, reflections and light. François’s work was inspired by the basic principles of dazzle painting At this stage in the development of All-New Austral, it was essential to "trap" its general lines as much as possible. To do so, François’s work was inspired by the basic principles of dazzle painting: the strong contrast of black and white, a vector of optical vibrations. From the beginning of the project, he wanted to work with the new brand codes, particularly the emblem. Iconic, the rhombus is conducive to the play of lines with its history and the graphic themes inscribed in its genes. François used it as a basis for inspiration. By playing with variations in scale, he has created an impacting motif with a strong identity. The originality, aestheticism and modernity of Renault's new visual identity was thus used to blur the characteristic shapes of All-New Austral. This artistic wink was an opportunity to highlight the brand and the model. The strong contrast of black and white, the different scales of the patterns, the touches of fluorescence and the overlapping layers create a complex graphic camouflage. Bringing in to the light? For the camouflage of the All-New Renault Austral, François relied on the strong contrast of black and white, the different scales as well as the aspects to accentuate the contrast. The fluorescent colour increases the overall impact on the road. Far from being a single run-of-the-mill sticker, the All-New Renault Austral covering is made of individual sections, each tailor made to perfectly fit their respective segments on the body then pieced together like a giant puzzle. A 3D model of the All-New Renault Austral was used to perfectly match the shape and relief of the support such as the bonnet or the rear wings. The patterns are smaller at the front and get bigger at the rear to accentuate the disturbances there. François has played with the rhombus by creating breaks and overlaps on the rear side, where the car's design expression is very strong. The grille and the light signatures, especially the one at the rear, have been blurred. The superimposition of glossy elements on a first matte-looking frame brings sophistication to the whole. The collage, piece by piece like a puzzle, required the utmost attention to detail so as not to damage the bodywork, both when cutting and when applying the sticker. Everything had to be perfect so artistic design could properly showcase the All-New Renault Austral, and for the car to elevate the art. François designed this covering with the aim of creating a highlight of the All-New Renault Austral, so that people would talk about the product and the brand at the same time. Making camouflage designed to be seen; what an exciting paradox! Covered in this custom-made covering, Renault Austral is unique There is a future for ‘dazzle’ camouflage François had already created the event camouflage for the New Mégane E-TECH Electric revealed at the Renault eWays. The need to conceal the car's lines was not as strong as for All-New Austral. The graphic theme did not have the same scale and played more on the gradient from black to white towards the rear of the car. Nevertheless, the lines, the graphic and angular patterns are very trendy. For François, this camouflage is a perfect fit for all upcoming vehicles and prototypes. Renault Design has even received requests from customers for an All-New Mégane E-TECH Electric with dazzle camouflage. Proof that one successful artistic creation can 'hide' another. Renault
