Mercedes-AMG GT Roadster, AMG GT C Roadster, AMG GT R
Three new members have been added to the AMG GT family - the AMG GT Roadster, AMG GT C Roadster, and the AMG GT R.
In the entry-level model, the AMG GT Roadster, the AMG 4.0‑litre V8 biturbo unit produces an output of 350kW and 630Nm of torque. The AMG GT C Roadster with its output of 410kW and peak torque of 680Nm slots in between the AMG GT S and AMG GT R.
At the top end of its product range is the new AMG GT R with a V8 biturbo engine rated at 430kW and 700Nm of torque. It has an extensively modified suspension, new aerodynamics and intelligent lightweight construction. Acceleration from 0-100 km/h takes 3.6 sec and the top speed is 318km/h.
This Spring will see the launch of the new Volvo XC40 premium compact SUV - Volvo’s first car built on the new compact modular architecture (CMA) chassis.
Safety and driver assistance features include Volvo’s semi-autonomous pilot assist system, the latest generation of 'city safety', run-off road protection and mitigation, cross traffic alert with auto brake and the 360° surround view camera which helps drivers into tight parking spaces.
Mitsubishi has launched its all-new Pajero Sport, a luxurious purpose-built sport utility vehicle. The new-generation Mitsubishi SUV reportedly offers improved driving dynamics, including an 8-speed automatic transmission for both the 2WD and 4WD models – the latter including low-range as well as Mitsubishi’s latest version of its Super Select 4-II 4WD system which now also boasts electronic off-road assistance.
The new-generation high-performance MIVEC 4-cylinder turbo diesel engine produces 133kW at 3500rpm. The 430Nm of torque at a modest 2500rpm, plus the 8-speed automatic transmission with intelligent shift control, results in effortless driving dynamics.
The newcomer boasts double wishbone coil springs with a stabilizer bar in the front and multi-link suspension with stabiliser bar in the back. The quiet drive, thanks to its strong ladder-frame design which absorbs all levels of NVH, gives the new Pajero Sport a big sedan car-like ride and handling.
