New Genesis G90

Following the release of the first official photos showing the exterior of the new G90 sedan, new photos reveal the interior of the car. As expected, Genesis has built the best it has into the G90.

For the new G90, Genesis has prepared five interior combinations made of top-quality materials for the extremely spacious cabin. Up front, there are heated / cooled seats with air chambers and massage function, while in the second row, with the optional First Class VIP package, only two people can enjoy in separate seats between which there is a wide multifunctional center console. The Genesis digital cockpit includes two 12.3-inch screens. There are also digitized climate controls and another application of a rotary controller in a combination of glass and aluminum.

In addition to adaptive ambient lighting, the atmosphere is completed by the Bang & Olufsen audio system with 23 speakers. Fragrances whose intensity is regulated by infotainment, as well as adjustable electronically controlled air suspension also contribute to the overall comfort.

The Genesis G90 is powered by a 3.5-liter turbo V6 engine with 375 hp (276 kW) and 391 lb-ft (530 Nm) of torque. The eight-speed automatic transmission will transfer power to the rear or both axles. There is also a G90 Long Wheelbase version that will be powered by a 3.5-liter supercharged T-GDi engine.

The new Porsche 911 Turbo will hit the market in 2023

It seems that Porsche, after a long time, is returning its 911 (992) model. For the beginning, there is a new facelift for this sports car, which can be seen in spy photos.

Although at first glance it does not differ from its predecessor, still in the front you can see larger air intakes, round driving lamps on the corners, and LED lights have been removed. The design of the rear part has been retained, and the light bar is now two-part.

Inside, the design is the same as in the current model, only the cluster is covered, so it is hinted that there could be something modern.

Whether there will be changes under the hood is currently unknown. The current Porsche 911 Turbo is powered by a 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six engine with 572 hp (427 kW) at 6,750 rpm and 553 lb-ft (750 Nm) of torque. The Turbo S model uses the same engine with 641 hp (478 kW) at 6,750 rpm and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. They reach 62 mph in just 2.7 (Turbo S) / 2.8 (Turbo) seconds with a top speed of 205 mph (330 kph) / 199 mph (320 kph). Both models use an eight-speed PDK transmission.

The new 911 model is expected to arrive in 2023.

The BMW i7 continues testing in southern Europe

Following recently published official photos from testing on the edge of the Arctic Circle, the BMW i7 has moved to significantly different climatic conditions at an unknown location in southern Europe.

The luxury BMW i7 will be premiered to the public next year, with a new generation of the 7 Series that will continue to use internal combustion engines. It is already known that the Bavarian response to similar models offered primarily by German competition will be powered by two electric motors whose potential will be distributed to both axles.

“Endurance test in the hot regions of various countries and continents serves in particular to test and safeguard all components of the electric drive system,” said BMW.

The BMW i7 will be powered by one electric motor at the front and two electric motors at the rear with a total output of around 650 horsepower. It will be equipped with a 120-kWh battery pack, sufficient for a range of 435 miles (700 kilometers).

The arrival of the BMW i7 has been announced for 2023, while the Series 7 is coming next year.
