New Nissan X-Trail
Nissan is about to launch the new Nissan X-Trail which is said to have the luxury and performance of an accomplished SUV and the smarts of a high-tech multipurpose vehicle.
As well as powerful engines and space for seven passengers, it includes the following upgrades:
The new Nissan X-Trail will be available at dealerships from 23 October 2017.
The popular SUV-inspired hatch, the Renault Kwid, now has a limited edition version, the Renault Kwid Xtreme, which boasts a bold exterior pack including 14"alloy wheels and 300 litres boot space.
Powered by Renault's new 1.0-litre Smart Control efficiency (SCe) engine, the Kwid is optimised for remarkable performance and efficiency. Its 180mm ground clearance gives the SUV-styled Kwid elevation to take on any challenge with ease.
Features in its segment include: 7" Touchscreen MediaNav with Bluetooth, USB, AUX and MP3 playback. It also comes with a driver's airbag, front electric windows, aircon and remote central locking standard, with added features specific to the limited edition i.e. reverse park sensors and drive-on lock.
The new Renault Kwid Xtreme is priced at R149,900.
M GmbH is presenting another exclusive limited-run special-edition model in the shape of the new BMW M4 CS. The BMW M4 CS fills the gap in the lineup between the M4 Coupe with Competition Package and the track-focused BMW M4 GTS.
The new BMW M4 CS will be built at the original BMW plant in Munich.
The 3.0-litre high-performance engine raises the output of the M4 with Competition Package by 10 horsepower, to 460 hp (338kW). TwinPower Turbo technology allows it to go from 0-100km/h in 3.9 seconds. The top speed of the M4 CS is electronically limited to 280km/h. Fuel consumption combined is 8.4 l/100 km* and CO2 emissions combined is 197 g/km*.
The car is equipped as standard with the seven-speed M Double Clutch Transmission (M DCT) with Drivelogic. This cutting-edge transmission has a separate oil cooler and enables both automated gear changes and manual interventions using the shift paddles on the steering wheel. It changes gears in fractions of a second with no interruption in the flow of power, but employs a long seventh gear to keep revs low and minimise fuel consumption over longer motorway journeys.
