RUMORS STILL ON PORSCHE


According to the site Porsche Coach provides a diesel version of its Panamera, Porsche Cayenne as the bank will use the body to use Audi. It would be the 3.0 v6 tdi 240 hp, but also the 4.2 tdi 322 hp V8. Another bad news for lovers of the brand and that all anti "stove oil" still on the pretext that it is necessary to lower the CO2, but Porsche could be other solutions but the least expensive to use at Audi.

By cons is preparing a surprise (well it is not all bad news finally) Porsche is preparing a hybrid with the 3.0 liter V6 petrol 369 hp (original Audi ... always reminds me of the errors passed the 924,944 that was basically a coupe Audi) coupled to an electric motor of 38 KW. The goal is to successfully reduce consumption to 7.9 liters per 100 km which would be a record for a Porsche and the model will be equipped with this block will be the future ... including 928 drawings were published by the site English Auto Express. The base used is that the Panamera but shortened version, the front is borrowed from the Panamera while the rear is a bit sportier. It will be interesting to compare it to the Aston Martin V8 Vantage knowing that Porsche will also use V8 engines of the Panamera voila place to photograph.

RUMOR ON FERRARI ...


You find the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano HgTe not powerful enough? and the 599 fxx too extreme? Ferrari will rejoice to revive a myth which is expressed in three letters ... After the GTO 250 GTO 288 GTO 1962 and 1984 there 'will the 599 GTO!
The program reduced weight and increased power between 680 and 700 horses! it's weird like that on the side of San Angata was announced the same power for the future Urus, in any case I welcome the revival of this name, synonymous with high performance at Ferrari.
