11:17 Seat Tarraco

Having slept through the crossover boom, the Spanish division of the Volkswagen empire zealously began to win back the position. Following the all-terrain vehicles Ateca and Arona, Tarraco appeared. This is a relative of Skoda Kodiak, only he is even bigger! Dimensions conceal spectacular Spanish design: Seat looks more interesting.

By technology, the MQB platform is not surprising. Seat Tarraco is doomed to be exclusive everywhere outside of Spain. Unless some special combination of engine and transmission can attract customers to it. In the Russian market, Seat made four attempts to spin up, and all of them failed. The fifth time the Spaniards are unlikely to decide to step on the same rake. So - we look only from the side.

18:01 BMW 3 Series

Greshka BMW in the back of the G20 switched to the modular CLAR platform. Soon it will be the most compact of the Bavarian rear-wheel drive ("penny" is about to replace the generation and the classic chassis on the front-wheel drive UKL). And more interesting than technology, is how BMW designers continue to rethink elements of corporate identity.

Four round headlights are still preserved, but the size marks have already turned from circles to “brackets”. World-famous “nostrils” of the radiator grill have grown together and have lost part of their charisma. The instrument dials also changed perfectly round to strange polygons (they say, with an eye on the same grille).

On the BMW 3 Series, the artists' hand encroached on even the most sacred - the “Hofmeister bend” on the articulation of the rear body pillar and door glass. The element, leading the history since 1961, became swept. Not otherwise symbolizes the movement forward.

Otherwise, fortunately, everything is still the same: the classic layout, clockwork turbo engines, an 8-speed automatic and precise handling.

Electric Mercedes-Benz EQC: two motors and 450 kilometers on charge

A few years ago, Daimler introduced the EQ sub-brand for electric vehicles. In Paris, they celebrated his first child - the EQC crossover. The letter “C” at the end of the index indicates that in the Mercedes hierarchy it is equal to the C-Class sedan and GLC crossover. Actually, it was built on the platform of the latter: there is a design similarity.

Competitors are already waiting: this is the Tesla Model X, and the Jaguar I-Pace, and the Audi e-tron standing in the same cabin is literally next door. And the BMW iX3 is on the way. In short, the battle is epic: all the grandees of the premium segment are simultaneously launching their cars of a new, electric era.

Soon, in tests, we will no longer evaluate taxiing and engine power, but the compliance of the declared range with the real one, the speed of the Internet on board and the convenience of charging. And the pioneers of electrification should take a closer look at everyone: soon these power units will come to the mass segment.

17:36 BMW Z4

The third generation of the "Zeta" was shown shortly before Paris at the Pebble Beach Festival. But for the general public, the world premiere happened here at a motor show.

Please note: on the roadster, even the headlights are no longer typically bevashashnye, although a hint of four-eyed remains. Not otherwise, the bad legacy of kinship with Toyota. The BMW Z4 and the revived Toyota Supra are all built on the same platform. True, the first turned out to be a roadster, the second - a coupe, and their interior decoration has nothing to do. But still relatives.

"Zetka" is equipped with a folding fabric roof and in basic terms is true to the canons of its class. Orders for Z4 are already being accepted in Russia. Price - from 3 190 000 rubles per car with 194 forces under the hood.

17:22 BMW X5

A rare case: the predecessor was successful in the market, but restyling did not wait. BMW had two reasons for the early change of the X5 generation.

The all-new BMW X5 surfaced in Moscow. Long before the official premiere!

The first is updating the rest of the line. Crossovers X1, X3 and X4 are already based on new chassis, in November X7 will also be released. Against this background, the X5 / X6 couple making the main checkout on the old "cart" does not look right. And the Bavarians spent on restoring market justice.

The second is the generation change of the main competitor Mercedes GLE. How to compete with him without being on the cutting edge of progress? But now both “Germans” are on equal footing, and it will be very interesting to see which one they will take.

Among the noteworthy moments of the new “X-fifth”, we note the first air suspension on all four wheels that appeared on the model, the autopilot reversing along the path that the electronics remembered, and an even more sporty look.

In Russia, the BMW X5 is already for sale.

17:01 Mercedes-AMG A35

The Mercedes A-Class recalls a typical story when a plump laziness turns into an athlete over the years. Could the first two generations have dreamed that once the letters AMG would once come to their name? But the current hatchback, perhaps, in an aggressive body kit looks even more harmonious than in a "civilian" look.

All Stars Paris Motor Show 2018

The “Thirty-fifth” A-Class with 306 forces under the hood is just the beginning of the story. Next year we are waiting for two more modifications, AMG A45 and AMG A45 S, and both will have at least 400 forces! Arms race will surely be supported by sworn friends in the face of the BMW 1 Series and Audi A3.

It may seem strange that in the current century of strict financial accounting, Daimler is wasting money on three image versions within the same model. But, apparently, all of them bring good income and the amount of work at the AMG studio is only increasing every year.

16:50 Porsche Macan

The compact crossover had a subtle restyling. Nothing out of the ordinary - a standard set of headlamps-bumpers. A new turbo engine of 245 forces was discovered in the gamut. This, of course, is a Porsche, but moneybags are also nice to save on transport tax.

A radical increase in the diagonal of the cabin display - from 7.2 to 10.9 inches - led to changes throughout the dashboard. It has become more modern, but the company is still true to the concept with a scattering of keys, from which everyone has already left.

The update plus an improvement in the basic configuration led to the fact that in Russia Macan went up from 3 512 000 to 3 729 000 rubles. In the basic configuration, of course: powerful and well-packaged versions are millions more expensive.

16: 14 Mercedes-Benz GLE

At one time, the Mercedes M-Class became the world's first premium crossover - even before the advent of the BMW X5 and other Cayenne. In the last generation, he changed his name to GLE, and in Paris appeared in a new body.

The muscular bonnet and recognizable stance behind the tailgate remained on the fourth crossover, but the rest of the GLE is unrecognizable. Dandy! You can’t find fault with the interior, although someone will probably not like its excessive “amusement”. On the other hand, take a look at the new Gelendvagen! But for premium it is in the order of things.

The fact that the Mercedes GLE has reached a different level is clearly indicated by the electric adjustment of the back sofa halves, unique for the segment.

All Stars Paris Motor Show 2018

It is extremely curious to check the crossover in business - off-road. On our “roller” tests, the previous GLE showed excellent preparation for all-wheel drive. And the newcomer also got a “hopping” air suspension mode to overcome loose snow or sand.

15:45 Mercedes-Benz B-Class

15:32 Audi A1

Despite the status of the most affordable Audi model, the A1 hatchback has not gained much popularity. Nevertheless, the Germans still released the second generation.

The car was made slightly different from the rest of Audi - without a three-window profile, which for decades served as the hallmark of cars from Ingolstadt. Another design feature is the air intake over the grille.

The materials in the cabin are expectedly unpretentious (by premium standards). Places inside, as in any other B-class hatch. But - boring.

You can’t count on deliveries to Russia. Our market predecessor left ahead of schedule and was sold poorly even in good times. If compatriots are ready to buy an inexpensive premium, then they take a golf class or a fashion Mini as a starting point.

15:00 Audi e-tron

The first electric crossover Audi: it will be sold with us

Long-range electric crossover is a new era in the global automotive industry. For several years the cream in the segment was collected by Tesla Model X, but now the monopoly and cloudless days for the “American” are over. A few months ago, the Jaguar I-Pace came out, and now also the Audi e-tron.

If you do not open the hood, the SUV and you will not suspect an innovative filling. Apparently, for this reason, Ingolstadt did not begin to assign the machine a traditional digital index - to emphasize its special status. When the "e-thrones" multiply and become commonplace, then marketers will stop allocating them as a separate caste.

Interior solutions, of course, cause a sigh of admiration, but are already familiar from other Audi. The envy of competitors and the interest of visitors are riveted to a unique option. Instead of rear-view mirrors, video cameras flaunt, the image from which is displayed on two displays in the cabin mounted on the doors. Convenient, practical, but you need to force yourself to look at another place. And the picture from the camera is different from the mirror - the eye needs to get used to.
