Auto Reveal: Renault unveils the new Megane Coupe-Cabriolet

Monday, February 8th, 2010

Renault has unveiled its new Megane Coupe Cabriolet, which is officially set to launch at the Geneva Motor Show.

The new Megane Coupe-Cabriolet features the same smoked glass folding hard top as its predecessor, which Renault says covers an area of 5 square feet. The fully-automatic electro-hydraulic two-piece roof folds down in about 21 seconds.

The four-seater convertible also features a fixed glass wind deflector behind the headrests of the back seats, which deflects wind away from the cabin at up to 90km/h. The Megane CC’s boot stands at 417 litres with the roof up, and 211 litres with the roof down.

Exterior features include directional bi-Xenon headlamps with cornering dipped beams and dark red taillights with LED brake lights. The interior boasts a Carminat Tomtom satellite navigation system, USB connection, 3D sound and an electronic parking brake.

For the Megane CC, Renault will offer six engine choices, with three petrols and three diesels. These include a 1.6-litre unit mated to a six-speed manual producing 110bhp, a 1.4-litre TCe turbo with a six-speed manual producing 130bhp, and a 2.0-litre with 140bhp mated to a CVT.

Auto Unveil: All new Mazda 5 revealed

Saturday, January 23rd, 2010

Mazda has wrapped-off the latest generation of its popular 5 MPV, which will be officially launched at the Geneva Motor Show in March.

New Mazda 5 has key features- the “Nagare Flow” design language, seen on previous Mazda concepts such as the Furai, and features striking swash lines along the side of the car, as well as Mazda’s trademark front end treatment.

From its predecessor, the new Mazda 5 retains the rear sliding doors, and can boast of seating capacity of up to seven passengers, in three rows of seats.

According to Hideki Matsuoka, Mazda5 Program Manager, “their main goal with the all-new Mazda5, was to develop a new C-MAV (C-segment Multi Activity Vehicle) that combines the superior environmental performance these times demand with a new expression in stylish design.”

Under the hood, the Mazda 5 will receive a brand new 2.0-litre DISI1 four-cylinder petrol engine with direct injection that comes with an engine stop-start system called i-stop.

There will also be a 1.8-litre petrol unit that produces 115bhp and 165Nm of torque, with six-speed manual transmissions standard for both. The all new Mazda 5 is expected to go on sale later this year.
