Estonian Ott Tänak has been confident of having the pace to be able to fight to be among the best in the Swedish Rally. The Hyundai driver had to retire at the Monte Carlo Rally after damaging the radiator of his i20 after going off the track. Ott Tänak joined Hyundai Motorsport after claiming the WRC title in 2019 with Toyota and since then the Estonian seems destined to start each season on the wrong foot. So much so that Tänak has withdrawn from the three editions of the Montecarlo Rally that he has contested with the South Korean firm . In 2020 he suffered a very serious accident in his debut with the Hyundai i20 WRC Coupé, while in 2021 a double puncture deprived him of reaching the finish line. This year, at the premiere of the Hyundai i20 N Rally1, things have not gone much better . In fact, Tänak had to retire from the 'Monte' after damaging the radiator of his Hyundai i20 N Rally1 after making a mistake and having a small run off the track. An outcome that, together with the reliability problems that the 'Rally1' of the South Korean brand had, has drawn a series of doubts about the Hyundai project. However, Ott Tänak remains confident that both the car and himself have the pace to challenge for the WRC top spots this season . https://www.motor.es/noticias/ott-tanak-cree-hyundai-i20-n-rally1-puede-brillar-suecia-202284941.html

What is probably the most logical alternative in the catalog of the new BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé, has diesel as its basic recipe. We have been able to test its mechanics called 420d that detonates 190 CV and amazing comfort. A true king of long trips that will be able to make you fall in love with both its aesthetics and its dynamics. The last generation of the BMW 4 Series meant the incorporation of a new nomenclature for the Munich firm, but also a new surname that was combined with it. This surname was "Gran Coupé" , and gave way to a natural enemy for the king of the range, the BMW 3 Series , this new model proposed a more sporty and youthful appearance, as well as a greater endowment of series elements, all under the only condition of an increase in the initial cost. Now, and on the occasion of the generational renewal of the BMW 4 Series, we have been able to discover the new body variant of the coupé model, being the third to reach the market after both two-door variants. The BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé offers as a starting point a greater dose of practicality with respect to its brothers in the range, but also a greater and more important endowment of standard equipment if we compare it with the 3 Series . It is a car that has come to make it difficult for all the different members of the mid-range of the brand, and it is not for less, since this is presented as one of the best purchase options of the entire BMW family . https://www.motor.es/pruebas-coches/prueba-bmw-420d-gran-coupe-202283990.html
