  1. EMP2 platform is so advanced that it doesn't support AWD. Kill it and keep Small Wide.
  2. PSA may have many car models but in terms technology and platforms they are way behind FCA. FCA has deedicated BEV platform, FCA has RWD platform, FCA has big engines... Nothing present on FCA. In addition to that FCA is part of important JVs related to ADAS development.
  3. No, it can't be used on French platforme because they are not rear wheel drive. Actually FCA already has this technology but is not as good as is upcoming 4th generation ZF.

  5. The biggest enemies of Italy and Italians are Italians. I can't see this marriage goes through without killing both DS and Citroen. There are too many brands already.
  6. M240 BEV? I doubt it.
  7. World premiere for the new Golf: digitalised, connected, and intelligent The Golf is the most successful European car for more than four decades. A new chapter in the history of this best-seller begins today, 24 October 2019, with the world premiere of the eighth Golf – digitalised, connected, and intuitive to operate. Never before has a Golf been so progressive. With hybrid versions launched at the same time, it is electrifying the compact class. Its digital interior enables a new dimension of intuitive operation. Speeds of up to 210 km/h are possible with assisted driving. It is the first Volkswagen to use swarm intelligence from traffic via Car2X, meaning it can warn against hazards on an anticipatory basis. Its world premiere takes place in Wolfsburg, where the Golf was invented, and where it has been built and refined for the last 45 years. The new Golf will be available on the market in December. “Over the course of seven generations, the Golf has impressed more than 35 million customers. The entire automobile industry expects a new Golf to set the standard”, explained Dr. Herbert Diess, Chairman of the Board of Management of Volkswagen AG. In terms of its technology, the Golf is making the greatest leap forward since its debut. Ralf Brandstätter, Chief Operating Officer of Volkswagen Passenger Cars: “This car is completely new. But of course, a Golf always remains a Golf. Because the underlying concept is timeless. This car has defined our brand over decades. The Golf has consistently made new technologies available for everyone.” It is a fact that the new Golf makes sustainable mobility accessible to many people. What’s more, with this Golf Volkswagen is moving to digitalised, self-explanatory operation. Klaus Bischoff, Head Designer at Volkswagen: “In a world where complexity is ever-increasing, the new Golf allows the driver to operate the vehicle intuitively.” Practically all displays and controls are digital: the new instruments and online infotainment systems meld together into a display landscape featuring touch buttons and touch sliders. A windshield head-up display is optionally available to further enhance the range of information available. Five hybrid drives for the new Golf With the new Golf, Volkswagen has started a hybrid offensive. As the first model of the brand, the eighth Golf will be available in no less than five hybrid drive versions. Its debut also celebrates 48V technology: a belt starter generator, 48V lithium-ion battery and the latest generation of efficient TSI engines form a new mild hybrid drive in the eTSI. Tangible benefits: consumption has been cut by up to 10% (on the basis of WLTP) and the vehicle is extremely agile and comfortable when moving off. Volkswagen will offer the Golf in three eTSI output stages: 81 kW / 110 PS, 96 kW / 130 PS and 110 kW / 150 PS. The eighth generation of the best-seller will also be available as two plug-in hybrid drive variants. A new efficiency version generates 150 kW / 204 PS while the very sporty GTE delivers 180 kW / 245 PS. Both Golf versions with plug-in hybrid drives will launch with a new 13 kWh lithium-ion battery on board that enables larger electrically powered ranges of approximately 60 kilometres, and temporarily turns the Golf into a zero-emissions vehicle. Efficient petrol and diesel – consumption savings of up to 17% The drive options for the new Golf also include a petrol (TSI), diesel (TDI) and natural gas drive (TGI), two four-cylinder petrol engines with 66 kW / 90 PS and 81 kW / 110 PS, two four-cylinder diesel engines with 85 kW / 115 PS and 110 kW / 150 PS, and a TGI with 96 kW / 130 PS The new TSI variants have particularly low consumption values and emissions thanks to elements including the innovative TSI Miller combustion process. An innovation in the TDI powertrains: Volkswagen uses twin-dosing technology (two SCR catalytic converters) to significantly reduce nitrogen oxide emissions (NOx) by up to 80%; in addition, TDI consumption is lowered by up to 17% compared with its predecessor. Consistently connected and Car2X as standard The systems have not only been linked to each other, but thanks to an online connectivity unit (OCU), they have also been connected to the world outside the Golf. The standard OCU featuring integrated eSIM links to “We Connect” and “We Connect Plus” online functions and services. The new Golf is also the first Volkswagen to connect with its environment as standard, via Car2X: signals from the traffic infrastructure and information from other vehicles up to 800 metres away are notified to the driver via a display. The Golf also shares these warnings with other Car2X models. Swarm intelligence is becoming a reality, representing the beginning of a new phase of traffic safety. https://www.volkswagen-newsroom.com/en/press-releases/world-premiere-for-the-new-golf-digitalised-connected-and-intelligent-5490
  8. That would be a Quadriplegio edition. Slow in the corners. The truth is that currently on the market there are both RS Q3 and AMG GLA 45. None of them has an electrified powertrain. AMG GLA 45 starts from around $53,000 in the USA. Just for comparison. AMG GLC 43 starts at $57,000 while AMG GLC 63 starts from $70,800. Stelvio Q is $80,245.
  9. Yes, power level is always without electrification, just internal combustion engine power. 2.0 300+ HP was always planned as MHEV.
  10. I don't understand comparison with a Mazda CX-3. This should be more like a CX-30 competitor while Tonale is a CX-5 competitor.
  11. Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, I own a VAG. ?
  12. X1 25d, 231 CV, 450 Nm E-Pace D240, 240 CV, 500 Nm Q3 40 TDI, 190 CV, 400 Nm GLB 220d, 190 CV, 400 Nm XC40 D4, 200 CV, 440 Nm Compass, 170 CV, 350 Nm
  13. 2.2 pulls much better than 2.0. Difference in torque level is substantial.
  14. At least multilink at the rear??? Rear McPherson has its drawbacks.
  15. This car inside looks as narrow as Compass. Stelvio is much wider inside. Then... Infotainment screen does have floating design but BMW does it much better. Where are HVAC controls? And no rotary knob for infotainment. So infotainment is touchscreen only? OUCH! But I do like exterior. It's very nice.
  16. I will not be surprised if M240 ends up with more than 600 HP from internal combustion engine and if with electric front axle it ends up close to 800 HP. 8C was planned both with e-axle (P4 electric motor) and electric motor on transmission input (P2).
  17. IMO all of this is not a good sign for Alfa Romeo brand. Just one model confirmed for 2019-2021 timeframe. On the other hand Maserati will got 3 during the same period.
  18. New GT and GC. Are they on Giorgio or aluminium spaceframe platform? Will we see new Harman R1 on Ghible, QP and Levante MCA next year? AFAIK this new infotainment should debut next year on all new electric Fiat 500.
