Guida autonoma!?

Potrebbe anche essere che ci sia tutta la gamma (RED) per il mercato US, quindi facile la presenza anche di 500X.

Direttamente dalla pagine Instragram di Renault e di TheArsenale, alcune immagini ed un video teaser per quella che sarà la Renault R4 Concept che verrà presentata il 26 Novembre. Il nome ufficiale non si sa ancora quindi ho messo R4 Concept nel titoto. 255639641_418389286508865_5570548520493234848_n.mp4 ---- Renault and TheArsenale unveil AIR4: where we are going, we don’t need roads AIR4, A FLYING SHOWCAR INSPIRED BY THE ICONIC RENAULT 4 FOR ITS 60TH ANNIVERSARY To conclude the celebrations for the 60th anniversary of Renault 4, the car maker has decided to team up with motion design hub TheArsenale to create a futuristic showcar, reinterpretation of this iconic model. 2021 marks the 60th anniversary of Renault 4L, a car that has sold more than 8 million units in over 100 countries over a period of more than 30 years. Much more than a car, 4L is a true icon. To celebrate its 60th anniversary, Renault has been holding a year of celebrations consisting of a number of initiatives. To wrap it up, the brand decided to join forces with the ground-defying design hub TheArsenale to create a showcar that gives a futuristic and offbeat reinterpretation of 4L. The original Renault 4 was a simple, efficient and versatile vehicle built between 1961 and 1992. A “blue jeans” car, as the former head of Renault Group, Pierre Dreyfus, used to describe it. A true icon conveying families, businesses and the likes of the gendarmerie and La Poste, as well as helping several generations of young motorists get behind the wheel. Its values and qualities convinced TheArsenale to collaborate with Renault to reimagine a 4L designed to drive along the unmarked highways above our heads. AIR4, THE RENAULT 4 “VOLANTE” Renault has partnered with TheArsenale on this truly unique project, and the result is unprecedented. AIR4 is a symbol of independence and freedom, born out of the realisation that traffic is compounding, lives are grinding to a halt, and the world above us is unhampered. Thus, AIR4 claims the air as the new road of the future. Design wise, AIR4 has resulted in a reinterpretation of the retro icon by TheArsenale, far from the modern car design language. The vehicle, entirely made of carbon-fiber, maintains the same lines and contained mass of the original 4L, yet presenting new dynamic capabilities. The rigidity has been completely revised to include new concepts such as thrust or lift, which required hours of calculations and tests. Drawing on generative design techniques using artificial intelligence, TheArsenale’s engineers were able to test terabytes of data to improve and fine-tune the designers' ideas, even before starting the first real-world trials. After a year-long of celebration we wanted to create something unconventional to close up the 60th anniversary of 4L. highlights Arnaud Belloni, Renault Brand Global Marketing Director. This collaboration with TheArsenale was a natural fit. The flying showcar AIR4 is something unseen yet and a wink to how this icon could look like in another 60 years. To drive around, AIR4 has no wheels. Instead, it features four two-blade propellers, one at each corner of the vehicle. The chassis sits in the middle of the rota frame, and the driver can access and take a seat in the utilitarian cabin of the vehicle by lifting the reimagined Renault 4 shell, which is hinged at the front. From a technical standpoint, AIR4 is powered by 22,000 mAh lithium polymère batteries that generate a total power of 90,000mAh. The vehicle counts on an orizontal top speed of 26m/s, with a 45° inclination during flights, and up to a maximum inclination of 70°. It can fly as high as 700m with a take off speed of 14m/s, restained at 4 m/s for safety reasons, and landing velocity of 3 m/s. Last but not least, AIR4 offers a maximum vectorial thrust of 380 kilograms, that is to say 95kg per propeller. AIR4 has been imagined, designed, engineered and assembled entirely in France, in the heart of Europe’s first technology park in Sophia Antipolis, on the Côte d’Azur. THEARSENALE “ROAD TO AIR” TheArsenale stands by the assumption that the icons of car culture are eternal. This vehicle is the first product from TheArsenale’s ROAD TO AIR division, which envisions the future transport network to be in the sky. AIR4 is the brainchild of Patrice Meignan, CEO and Founder of TheArsenale, who sought to create a new kind of vehicle that provokes emotion, establishes brand identity and offers pleasure. I have dedicated my life to the passion for mobility and I continually explore all aspects of the moving world. says Patrice Meignan. After 25 years of forward-looking research, we believe that the icons of car culture are eternal, whether on earth or in the air. For 60 years, Renault 4 has been driven by ordinary people who make it extraordinary. It is a car that symbolises adventure: simple, practical, useful and as modern as it is retro. Most drivers will tell you, it allows you to travel differently and to live an adventure. This ‘traveling different’ has inspired my team and I. With AIR4 by TheArsenale, the Renault 4 is ready for one of its greatest adventure yet. WORLD PREMIERE After its digital presentation today, 26th of November, AIR4 will go on public display from next Monday until the end of the year in the vibrant center of Paris at the Atelier Renault on the Champs Elysées, alongside other historic versions of the Renault 4. Beginning 2022, AIR4 will hit the American ground in Miami and then New York, before a pit stop in Macau.

Fiat Pulse ha raggiunto la quota di 9mila prenotazioni.

Scrivo qui trattandosi comunque di una mini notizia su un modello dell'orbita Stellantis. In Brasile sono in fase di test le Peugeot 208 con i motori 1.3 Firefly inoltre sempre per il mercato brasiliano è prevista una ulteriore motorizzazione 1.0 Turbo Flex T200 della Fiat Pulse.

Questa invece la lista delle case automobilistiche partecipanti al salone.

Pubblico qui eventuali link a dirette streaming delle presentazioni delle case automobilistiche presenti all'LA Auto Show, poi per i dettagli dei vari modelli si apriranno topic dedicati nella sezione Presentazione Automobili e Nuovi Modelli. Partiamo con Porsche, qui di seguito comunicato stampa (in cui ho evidenziato le quattro novità che porterà al salone) e link alla diretta che avverrà il 17 Novembre. The sharpest Cayman ever is the highlight of the LA Auto Show At the LA Auto Show (19 – 28 November), Porsche will present the new flagship of the 718 family: the 718 Cayman GT4 RS. The RS-typical features include more downforce and power than the GT4, while the weight has been reduced even further. The result is the most uncompromising and sharpest 718 ever – and a world of driving pleasure. It can complete a 20.6-kilometre lap of the Nürburgring Nordschleife in just 7:04.511 minutes. This is 23.6 seconds faster than a 718 Cayman GT4 equipped with Porsche dual clutch transmission (PDK). At the same time, the 718 Cayman GT4 RS Clubsport racing version will celebrate its debut in Los Angeles. The Taycan electric sports car will be the focus of two world premieres: a new, incredibly dynamic, drive variant positioned between the Taycan 4S and the Taycan Turbo, and a third body style will be revealed to the public for the first time in California. The Panamera family is also gaining a new addition: Porsche is launching a special series with ultra-high-quality equipment: the Platinum Edition. The unveiling of all five world premieres will take place on 17 November at 05:00 (CET) with Oliver Blume, Chairman of the Executive Board at Porsche AG, Detlev von Platen, Member of the Executive Board for Sales and Marketing, and Frank-Steffen Walliser, Vice President Model Line 911 and 718. Ex-Formula One driver and Porsche brand ambassador Mark Webber will host the event. All of the action will be broadcast in English on NewsTV.porsche.de and on Facebook, YouTube and LinkedIn.

1. Perchè devono ancora iniziare a girare su strada, attendi i prossimi mesi. 2. Probabilmente Tonale ha iniziato la sua campagna "marketing" girando più spesso sulle strade italiane (ancora camuffata) e molte foto possono essere "pilotate" direttamente dalla divisione marketing per far parlare del modello.

Stamattina, portando la mia vettura a fare il tagliando, ho potuto vedere dal vivo la nuova Fabia e devo dire che non è affatto male. Nel pomeriggio se riesco mi soffermo a guardarla un po' meglio e vedo anche i prezzi come sono.

Tra le auto da te elencate io sarei incerto tra Octavia e Kuga, andrei però a vederle in concessionaria per la prova sedili, forse Skoda è quella con i sedili più comodi. A livello di motori diciamo che sono entrambi motori buoni forse un pelo sottodimensionati anche per quello magari guardati qualche scheda tecnica.

Restyling dell'attuale che a sua volte è già il restyling del modello precedente.

Pensate restyling dell'attuale!? Ho fatto zoom sulla zona faro dell'attuale.

Sinceramente non mi tornava che fosse su base 812, ci vedevo pochi punti in comune, infatti e su base GTC4 Lusso. Confermato anche da Quattroruote.

Anche a me quella "lama" lascia un po' perplesso; ci sono integrate le frecce e/o due cromature oppure è solo un riflesso quello che si vede?

COMUNICATO STAMPA via Ferrrari

Chi ha fatto le foto era a bordo di un'Audi e-tron, quindi mi sa che sono foto "pilotate" in quanto mi sa che erano in fase di test comparativo su strada, davanti si vede anche una GV60.

Dal 13 al 20 Novembre c'è la BMW WEEK, se riesco magari questo weekend potrei andare a fare il test drive, tanto qua mettono brutto tempo così mi trovo qualcosa da fare. 😅

Sono curioso di capire come lo hanno gestito a livello di lavorazione dei lamierati e gestione colori ecc... perchè in effetti è bello importante.

Sono stati lungimiranti, sapevano della crisi dei semiconduttori e quindi hanno fermato gli sviluppi. 😅 Comunque, almeno dalle mie parti (non so sei sia da associare alla crisi attuale con tempi di consegna lunghi) ma di Tipo Restyling ne vedo poche.

A me non so perchè ma un po' ha ricordato (visto così tutto camuffato) la Urus forse a causa delle proporzioni tra vetratura rastremata e corpo vettura grande/imponente. Di sicuro sono curioso di vederlo, dato che BMW sta azzardando parecchio, per esempio la solerra iX che in foto non mi convinceva molto invece dal vivo devo dire che non è male pur restanto una tipologia di auto di cui non sono un grande fan.

Penso che chi compra questa tipolgia di mezzi soprattuto versione van e "base" poco importi di quanto possa essere figo e con le plastiche piano black.

Grazie per il chiarimento.
