In combination with the RS torque splitter installed for the first time in an Audi, the A3 series’ emotional flagship model offers performance and lateral dynamics on a whole new level. The market launch will take place at the end of October – at prices starting at 60,000 euros for the RS 3 Sportback and 62,000 euros for the RS 3 Sedan.
ŠKODA AUTO presents the ENYAQ RS iV: With the new top version of the battery-electric SUV, ŠKODA AUTO is expanding its sporty RS family to include a second all-electric model alongside the ENYAQ COUPÉ RS iV. With this move, the Czech car manufacturer is taking its electric campaign to new heights. Three more all-new e-models will be launched by 2026. The goal is to offer a complete range of electric products from small cars to 7-seaters and boost the BEV share of deliveries in Europe to more than 70% by 2030. Like the coupé variant, the ENYAQ RS iV also features two electric motors and all-wheel drive with a total system output of 220 kW* and a range of over 500 kilometres** in the WLTP cycle. A maximum charging power of 135 kW enables even faster charging at compatible charging points. In addition to the two Design Selections RS Lounge and RS Suite and comprehensive standard and safety equipment, ŠKODA is offering two new option packages for the ENYAQ RS iV, Advanced and Maxx, giving the range an even clearer structure. The Czech car manufacturer is also making extensive use of recycled and recyclable materials in the ENYAQ RS iV and delivering it to customers with a CO₂-neutral balance sheet.The new ENYAQ RS iV is the second all-electric model in ŠKODA’s sporty RS range. Just like the ENYAQ COUPÉ RS iV, the SUV has a sporty, emotive appearance and comes with the most powerful drivetrain in ŠKODA’s current portfolio. The two electric motors, one on the front and the other on the rear axle, deliver a system output of 220 kW*, and the maximum torque of 460 Nm is transmitted to all four wheels via all-wheel drive. With a top speed of 180 km/h, it is 20 km/h faster than the other ENYAQ iV models. The maximum range of over 500 kilometres** in the WLTP cycle is possible thanks to its combination of an 82 kWh battery and high energy efficiency along with an outstanding drag coefficient of cd 0.265.
The arrival of the Alfa Romeo Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4 marks the end of vehicles being introduced into the Tonale range—the model with which the brand made its entrance into the world of electrification while staying true to its Italian sporty DNA established in 1910. The new version is the top of the range and opens a new chapter in Alfa Romeo’s metamorphosis as it combines maximum efficiency and sportiness: more than 80km in full-electric in the urban cycle, 600km in the total cycle, and emissions reduced to 26g/km.It is a model designed to meet the needs of customers who, today more than ever, are looking for technology, comfort, and safety in a sporty vehicle, in addition to high performance. The Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4 foreshadows where Alfa Romeo wants to take its conception of sportiness. Moreover, thanks to top-of-the-line roominess, increased on-board comfort, quiet driving, and reduced emissions, the new model is ideal for traveling alone or with family or friends as it guarantees the most in safety and reliability in both city and long-distance driving.The Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4’s road qualities are best in class and its on-board technology and connectivity make it the most hi-tech Alfa Romeo ever. Quality and attention-to-detail have been combined with dynamic characteristics with the goal of reinventing sportiness in the 21st century. The historic Alfa Romeo logo has been reinterpreted to highlight the brand’s electrification process: the elegant elettro-biscione serigraphy placed on the left rear window stands out on the Tonale Plug-In and is emphasized by privacy glass.
The Flying Spur Speed’s powertrain produces 635 PS (626 bhp) and 900 Nm (664 lb.ft) of torque, accelerating the car to 0-60 mph in 3.7 seconds (100 km/h in 3.8 seconds), and on to a top speed of 207mph (333 km/h). The Flying Spur uses the same 8-speed ZF dual-clutch transmission as the Continental GT for smooth and refined acceleration, quicker gearshifts and improved fuel economy. Faster gearshifts are achieved by pre-selecting the next gear, shortening the interruption of torque to the wheels and so improving performance. Maximum speed is reached in sixth gear, with the overdrive gears (seventh and eighth) used for economic grand touring. The Flying Spur Speed has a clutched system which delivers drive to the rear axle. Depending on the road conditions and wheel slip, it will then automatically send drive to the front axle as required, as an active all-wheel drive system. Therefore turn-in response is also improved. The front end of the Flying Spur feels much lighter and changes direction almost at the speed of thought. The understeer effect experienced with fixed all-wheel drive is virtually eliminated, making the car feel more balanced overall.
