With the BMW iX and the BMW i4, two elementary core models of this electric offensive can be experienced for the first time for the general public as part of the IAA Mobility 2021. The BMW iX, the BMW Group's new technology flagship, paves the way for innovations in the fields of electromobility and digitalization. Fifth generation of BMW eDrive technology enables locally emission-free driving pleasure with electric all-wheel drive and a long range. With the BMW i4, fully electric mobility can be experienced for the first time in a premium mid-range model. It arrives at the core of the BMW brand. The BMW i4 combines locally emission-free driving pleasure in a particularly sporty form with the spaciousness and practicality of a four-door Gran Coupé. Fully electric versions of the high-volume BMW 5 Series and the BMW X1 will follow in the coming years. There is also the BMW 7 Series and the successor to the MINI Countryman. The BMW Group will have at least one fully electric model on the road in around 90 percent of its current market segments by 2023

Mercedes-Benz S 680 GUARD 4MATIC in obsidian black Driving Video

12 October 2021 44 Views

Mercedes-Benz has been building special-protection vehicles since 1928 and thus for over 90 years. Customers of the new S 680 GUARD 4MATIC benefit from these many years of experience. The integrated protection system (iSS) reaches a new level: whereas the necessary protective materials were previously integrated into the standard body shell structure for the GUARD saloons, a GUARD-specific body shell of protective elements has now been developed. This self-supporting protective cell represents the core of the iSS. Ultimately, the (aluminium) outer skin serves as a design cover and ensures an inconspicuous appearance. In addition to the armouring, the iSS includes the adaptation of the suspension, engine and transmission to ensure handling that is virtually on a par with that of the production vehicle. Due to a parallel development process alongside the large-scale production models, the longevity of the GUARD vehicles also reaches series production level. In addition to the unseen armouring elements, the transparent area of the windows is an integral and essential part of the protection concept. The material and thickness of the multi-layer glass 'sandwich' meet the high requirements of the VR10 safety classification. The inner surfaces of the glass are coated with polycarbonate for splinter protection. Despite their comprehensive protective effect, they offer excellent visibility. And they have been integrated in such a way that they are not noticeable at first glance - another significant advantage of the integrated protection system.
