Welcome !

Fans of compact SUVs capable of tracing back to GTs will be served on BMW's Geneva stand, with the X3 and X4 M, which, not content to embark under their hood a six-in-line 480 hp, promise more muscle with a 510 hp Competition variant that can already be ordered. Just to invite yourself to the table of the Alfa Stelvio QV and the Mercedes GLC 63 AMG S ... Technically, this is the second time that Motorsport, the sporting division of BMW, has looked into the case of the compact SUVs of the X clan. Indeed, an M Performance variant, the M40i, appeared in 2015, namely a year after the launch of the first generation of the X4, and was renewed on its substitute, revealed (early) in 2018. The third generation of the X3, unveiled in 2017, for its part, was also entitled to this high-performance version . Only, there is a world of difference between a BMW M Performance and a pure and hard M. Compare the technical data sheets of the two models we are interested in to those of the X3 and X4 M40i. While the 3.0 biturbo inline six-cylinder M Performance variants displays a power of 360 hp and a maximum torque of 500 Nm, that which prevails under the hood of the little brothers of the X5 and X6 M benefits from 120 hp and 100 Nm additional. It’s very simple! Never before has a production BMW had to deal with such a powerful six-cylinder! The previous “rekordmeister” in this area was the M2 Competition and its 410 hp! Coupled with the 8-speed Steptronic automatic transmission and the xDrive all-wheel drive - extrapolated from that of the last M5, it has a Sport mode favoring the rear axle, but does without the Propulsion mode of icon -, this new punch Bavarian allows the X3 and X4 M to seek stratospheric performance: the 0 to 100 km / h is shipped in 4.2 s in both cases, while the Vmax, electronically restrained at 250 km / h, can be worn , optional, at 280 km / h. In order to absorb this surge of power and force, so that the undercarriages and the ground connections of the newborns have been deeply overhauled: more radical suspensions, piloted shock absorbers, composite brakes, active rear differential ... The BMW touch As desirable as they are, with their suggestive body kits, these two tall legged sprinters bow to an Alfa Stelvio QV or a Mercedes GLC 63 AMG S in terms of power and pure performance. The two rivals of the Bavarian spiers have blocks of 510 hp. And if the Milanese champion displays, like the X3 and X4 M, a maximum torque of 600 Nm, that of Stuttgart has 700 Nm. Suddenly, it is not less than four tenths more than claim the Munich champions to complete the from 0 to 100. This is why at the same time as the first info and photos of the two models which we have been talking about for a bit, BMW announced that a Competition variant, having exactly the same power as its two most frontal rivals (510 ch), was already in the pipeline and it was even possible to order it without further delay. That said, even this variant will not fill the gap on 0 to 100 km / h, credited that it is 4.1 s on this exercise. However, it will allow the propeller SUVs to compete in maximum speed (285 km / h, against 283 for the Alfa and 280 for the Merco). You have to put things in context. The frantic race to the hundredth of a second has never been in BMW's DNA, unlike concepts like road feel, behavior at the start and end of the curve, drift ... In this, these X3 and X4 M should be more like the Porsche Macan Turbo, which only 440 hp, while being a thrill factory.

Combining the comfort of a luxury sedan with the dynamic temperament of a racing beast is the mission of the new BMW M5, which houses a 600 hp V8 under its hood. Exceptional test! The stylistic changes of the M5 are generally dictated by technical constraints, linked to heat dissipation and aerodynamic sophistication. Suddenly, the front bumper accommodates large air intakes intended for cooling the V8, while the rear incorporates a huge diffuser, framed by 4 exhaust outlets. As for the profile, nothing to report except low-profile tires, fitted with rims (20 ’’), revealing huge carbon / ceramic stirrups, marked “M”. Add to this frenzied panoply a molded carbon roof and you get a sport full of testosterone. But the best is yet to come. Let's turn the ignition key and listen to the V8. Rather discreet at idle, this 8-cylinder lets express all its quintessence beyond 3000 rpm. This is precisely what we had the pleasure of testing under appropriate conditions, by confronting it with the legendary Nürburgring circuit. The dynamic test begins with slalom exercises which, performed over a course of approximately 300 m, highlight the instantaneous responsiveness of the steering, relating to steering and counter-bracing operations. Next is the emergency braking event, where the M5 comes to a sudden stop over short distances. Crazy temper For casting, the BMW M5 runs in 4WD (4-wheel drive) mode permanently. However, sustained acceleration tipped a large part of the cavalry (600 hp, in total) towards the rear axle. Suddenly, the M5 resumes its reflexes of good rear propulsion, ideal for negotiating laces at breakneck speeds. It should also be noted that the German sports car rests on a perfectly firm, but well calibrated suspension, which allows spectacular drifts. Adrenaline-seeking pilots can select Sport Plus mode, and turn anti-skid off, making the M5 even more radical. The performances are frankly demonic: the maximum speed flirts with the 305 km / h (bridled to 250 km / h), while the 0 to 100 km / h is dispatched in 3.4 s. And of course, the climbs are accompanied by a captivating sound, released by the 4 exhaust outlets. Add to this symphony, the shrill screeching of the rubber on the asphalt ... And you get a dream racing car, which transports the pilot into another dimension. In the end, this sensational machine with demonic performance trades ruby on the nail. Count something like 1,439,000 DH, to benefit from the services of Comfort finishing, the high-end version, Exclusive, requires an extension of just over 100,000 DH. Notice to purists!

This is mine :

By dint of being outdistanced by its rival BMW 5 Series, the new Audi A6 retorts by adopting a new fully digital cockpit, decked out in electronics and digital assistants… Suddenly, it has so metamorphosed that we are even tried to forgive him for his late arrival in the Kingdom, one year after its commercialization in Europe. The competition between premium touring cars is raging. To seduce, manufacturers are constantly adding high-tech equipment and gadgets to it, aimed at making them even more sophisticated than ever. It is the digital revolution which invites itself within the automobile by means of giant screens, perfected, ultra-connected and which obey the finger and the eye, so as to reduce driving to a simple formality . To multiply well-being on board, the digital surge is no longer a quarter: the innovations, as soon as revealed by a very high-end vehicle, are immediately duplicated in a lower-ranking model. This is precisely the case of the Audi A6 which, by looking more and more towards the prestigious Audi A8, has ended up taking over almost the entire electronic, digital and technical arsenal. The newcomer thus aims to offer comfort equivalent to that of its big sister, to which it owes the platform and the mechanical architecture, which it now displays measurements largely revised upwards. If the length points to 4.93 m (+6 mm), the interior wheelbase is also subject to good inflation (+12 mm). This results in a generous space and a rather relaxed atmosphere, but before taking a seat on board, let us review the most significant aesthetic changes. Style interference : At first glance, the architecture of the A6, still faithful to the attributes of a large saloon sedan, sports a more elegant silhouette. The famous single frame grille, wider with sharp corners, is still part of the decor, as is the massive shield flanked by air intakes on the sides and a discreet lower aerodynamic blade. On the other hand, the fine shape of the lights does not change much, but their interior graphics create a more distinctive signature. To underline its high-end stature, the rear part accommodates a chrome strip connecting the optical units, while the profile highlights its length, as we have said, prominent, accompanied by overhangs revised downwards, history of reducing the turning radius and, therefore, facilitate handling in the city ... The interference of this new style between the classic, sporty and modern worlds, even invade the interior. The interior of the A6 is a pleasant lounge in which all passengers will feel comfortable. Numerous digitization The interior of the A6 is a pleasant lounge in which all passengers will feel comfortable. Here, the ergonomics of the seats are impeccable, as is the choice of materials and the quality of finish. On the layout side, nothing to add, except that the brand with the rings remains faithful to its proverbial know-how. As for the storage spaces, the volume of the trunk remains unchanged, i.e. 530 liters, but its opening is now carried out with a simple movement of the foot under the rear bumper. Sumptuous, the interior atmosphere is nonetheless friendly with a rectangular dashboard combined with a king size center console, delimiting the two front seats. Equipped with digital instrumentation, Virtual Cockpit (available only on the S-Line finish), the cockpit resembles that of a Dreamliner. The two other screens of the MMI digital interface, placed in the middle of the board, are so intuitive that it is possible to activate a function without taking your eyes off the road. In addition, the driver manages the infotainment separately via the upper screen (10.1 ’’) on the MMI navigation plus system. Below, another screen (8.6 ’’) provides access to the air conditioning control, comfort functions and text entry. Not to mention the head-up display that projects important information onto the windshield. The MMI navigation plus system also includes Audi’s Virtual Cockpit with a 12.3 ’’ screen. Finally, the German flagship is available in three finishes: Premium, Business Line, S-Line. TDI robust et sober : Under the hood, the new Ingolstadt road car is available in two diesel versions, namely the A6 40 TDI, which develops 190 hp for a torque of 400 Nm and the A6 45 TDI delivering 249 hp for a torque of 600 Nm. two blocks are exclusively associated with the 8-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission, whose double clutch greatly contributes to the reduction in consumption, which revolves around an average of 4.2 and 5.5 l / 100 km respectively. Thanks to its slightly firmer suspension and its direction which becomes more incisive as the speed increases, the handling should be better in more ways than one… This is what is expected of a big road like the 'A6, being at the same time handy in town, agile on small roads, and stable on motorways. Offered at 529,000 DH, the entry-level version of the A6 40 TDI Premium has most of the equipment. However, it overlooks the Virtual Cockpit and many other comfort devices, available only on the A6 40 TDI S-Line finish, which requires an envelope of DH 669,000. Even more full-bodied, the prices for the A6 45 TDI version peak at DH 689,000 (Business Line) and DH 769,000 (S-Line).

Happy Birthday Brother ❤️
