SEAT is taking the next step in its electric offensive: this week sees the sales launch of the new SEAT Tarraco e-HYBRID. It combines the long range of a conventional, highly efficient combustion engine with the virtually silent, high-torque and locally emission-free propulsion of an electric motor. The SEAT Tarraco e-HYBRID is available to order now at a price starting at €43,970. Thanks to the combination of a 1.4 TSI engine with an output of 110 kW (150 hp) and an electric motor with an output of 85 kW (115 hp), the new SEAT Tarraco e-HYBRID delivers a total output of a remarkable 180 kW (245 hp) with a maximum torque of 400 Nm. The drive power of the combustion engine is transmitted to the wheels by an automated 6-speed dual-clutch gearbox (DSG).

2022 Mercedes-Benz EQE 500 AMG 4MATIC in Graphite grey magno Driving video

5 May 2022 46 Views

The EQE features a sporty 'purpose design' with all the characteristic elements of Mercedes-EQ, one-bow lines and cab-forward design. Sensual Purity is reflected in generously modelled surfaces, reduced joints and seamless transitions (seamless design). The overhangs and the front end are kept short, the rear provides the dynamic accent with a sharp rear spoiler. Flush with the outer edge of the body, the 19- to 21‑inch wheels, together with a pronounced muscular shoulder section, give the EQE an athletic character. Compared to the luxury liner EQS, the EQE is even more streamlined, with a slightly shorter wheelbase, shorter overhangs and more recessed flanks - it carries the concept of the business saloon into the future. The sporty, low and slim front of the EQE forms a coupé-like silhouette with a bow (one bow) stretched tightly over the greenhouse. The A-pillar, which has been moved far forward, and the C-pillar at the rear create space for a generous passenger compartment. Unique in this segment is the cab-forward design: The overhangs and the front-end assembly are short, the rear forms a dynamic accent with a sharp rear spoiler. Flush with the outer edge of the body, wheels of around 725 mm in size on 19- to 21-inch rims, together with a muscular shoulder section, give the EQE an athletic character.

The first-ever BMW i7 in the wind tunnel

4 March 2022 55 Views

The BMW i7 is being developed with the aim of combining hallmark driving pleasure with a level of comfort that is in a class of its own. One key factor here is the acoustic properties. The level of well-being in the interior of the purely electrically powered luxury sedan is largely determined by the degree to which disturbing noises can be kept away from the occupants. There are a variety of potential noise sources to be taken into account here, so near-production prototypes of the BMW i7 – and indeed all other model variants of the future BMW 7 Series – undergo an extensive programme as part of their acoustic testing. At the Research and Innovation Centre (FIZ) in Munich, test and development engineers check the full range of the vehicle’s sound emissions and immissions. Motor and rolling noise are analysed in detail, as are the aeroacoustics and vibration comfort, in order to fully determine the acoustic properties of the new luxury sedans. This also includes precise alignment of acoustic pedestrian protection and the motor sound emitted in the interior of the BMW i7 – the latter having been developed as part of BMW IconicSounds Electric, a collaborative venture between the BMW Group and Hollywood film music composer Hans Zimmer.
