Porsche Cayenne with 930 HP

The current generation Porsche Cayenne served as the basis for a new project by German tuner TechArt, called Magnum. It is a special equipment kit made of carbon fiber that takes the SUV to the next level.

The Porsche Cayenne is known for its excellent performance and good design, but the new carbon components make it even more impressive. The equipment kit includes a new front bumper with black elements and optional body-colored wings, a radiator grille, a new hood with two large air vents, wider wheel arches, new sills, and new exterior mirror housings. The Magnum is available in standard, Sport, Unique, and First Edition versions.

The Sport version offers a more aggressive diffuser with two centrally located exhaust pipes, like those of the Cayenne Turbo GT, as well as a carbon roof spoiler and a small lip spoiler. The Unique version offers more customization of the exterior and interior.

The First Edition offers the highest level of customization and uniqueness, such as individually numbered front wheel arches and a customized interior. This version is limited to just 25 units.

When it comes to the powertrain, TechArt has increased the power of the twin-turbo V8 engine to 930 hp and 1,100 Nm of torque. This is enough to accelerate the car from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.6 seconds with an electronically limited top speed of 330 km/h. The car is mounted on a set of 23-inch wheels with black, silver and carbon elements.

STLA AutoDrive is Stellantis’ first automated driving system

Stellantis has developed its first automated driving system that enables hands-free and eyes-off driving (SAE Level 3), STLA AutoDrive. This system operates at speeds up to 60 km/h and is designed primarily for city traffic.

STLA AutoDrive is Stellantis’s response to similar competitor systems, which allows the driver to enjoy driving more because the car can now steer, brake and monitor traffic independently thanks to an advanced sensor system and automatic sensor cleaning that ensure stable operation. The driver can use this time for other tasks, such as answering emails or simply relaxing.

The system is designed on a flexible platform and supports cloud-based software upgrades, which will enable incremental functionality. At higher speeds, the system operates in Level 2 and 2+ modes (adaptive cruise control and lane positioning). At that moment, the driver’s attention is required so that he can intervene in time if necessary.

Also, Stellantis announced that in the future, some models could receive Hands-Free and Eyes-Off upgrades, which enable independent driving at speeds of up to 95 km/h and off-road autopilot.

Fiat Tipo is an affordable car with a price of 16,300 euros

Budget cars are the first option for many buyers and the Dacia Sandero, as the best-selling car in Europe in recent years, is an example of this. However, another model that could attract the attention of buyers, primarily due to its price, is the Fiat Tipo.

The Fiat Tipo is the cheapest sedan on the EU market, but also an excellent alternative to the Citroën C4 X, Toyota Corolla Sedan or Ford Focus Sedan. It is powered by a 1.6-liter Multijet diesel engine with 130 hp and 320 Nm of torque. This engine is considered reliable and efficient, as it has an average fuel consumption of only 4.7 liters per 100 kilometers.

This model has returned to the EU market and is already considered one of the better offers in its category. As a limousine from the C segment, it offers more than decent equipment but also a favorable price, it costs only 16,300 euros.

At the 2015 Istanbul Motor Show, Fiat introduced this model as a replacement for the Bravo and Linea in the C-segment. It is assembled at the Tofaş plant in Bursa, where over 800,000 units have rolled off the production lines, and distributed to markets in more than 40 countries.
