echo motors - 16th september 2011

AS motor shows go thisyear’s spectacular atFrankfurt is ablockbuster – and Britishbrands are at the fore.

Stunning designs from Jaguar,Land Rover and MINI prove that funis back in motoring in a big way.

The drive towards low emissionsmay still dominate but the nextgeneration of cars is going to besomething special.

Jaguar’s sensational C-X16‘production ready concept’two-seater is a perfect example.

The spiritual successor to theE-Type and described by designchief Ian Callum as Jaguar at itspurist, is a high performancelightweight aluminium sports carwith a hybrid petrol-electricpowertrain.

It has a top speed of 185mph butits CO2 output is no more than afamily saloon with its 380psthree-litre V6 engine backed up byan electric motor allowing an extra95ps to be on tap,

The result is breathtaking looksand breathtaking acceleration of 0to 60mph in around four seconds.

Just as special is Land Rover’sDC100 Sport – one of two conceptstipped to replace the stalwartDefender – the ultimate 4x4.

An open top three-seater with acentral instrument display – justlike the original Land Rover of 1948– it is a car with ‘surfer dude’stamped all over and well and trulyaimed at the leisure market.

Its sister DC100 model is theheavy duty version which willfollow Land Rover’s true goanywhere heritage.

Both could be in production by2015 helping to secure the future ofthousands of jobs at Land Rover’sfactories in the Midlands and onMerseyside.

Equally important to the Britisheconomy is MINI which wasshowing its new Coupe at Frankfurtonly weeks before the rakishlooking car is due on sale.

With its steeply sloped roof theCoupe is the latest take on theclassic MINI design which hasrecently spawned theall-wheel-drive Countryman tocontinue the brand’s success acrossthe globe from its headquarters inCowley, Oxford.

Other newcomers which will bebuilt in Britain included Honda’slatest Civic and a new Toyota

Avensis.The Civic, to be built atSwindon, looks more an

evolution of the currentmodel but its

underpinnings are all

new promising to deliver animproved ride and handling whileits engines have been cleaned up tocut CO2 output to as low as110g/km.

Meanwhile the new Avensis, infamily-sized saloon and estateshapes, is a bold step forward forToyota and features the company’slatest angular face recently seen onthe new Yaris hatchback.

The Avensis will be builtalongside the Auris hatch atToyota’s Burnaston factory in

Derby. UK brands were also evidentat the more exotic end of the marketwith Aston Martin revealing itsamazing V12 Zagato supercar andBentley showing off the sensuousnew Continental GTC convertible.

Bentley’s parent company,Volkswagen was out to impress itshome crowd with a new city carstrangely called the up! while Audi– another part of the VW group -was showing its little A2 conceptelectric model.

BMW was also getting in on the

alternative fuel act with its latest i3and i8 models demonstrating thebrand’s shift into the batterypowered and plug-in hybridmarkets.

The final big hitter fromGermany, Mercedes, which this yearis celebrating the 125th anniversaryof moment it developed the firstautomobile, gave world premieres toa roadster version of the SLSsupercar, the first diesel enginedSLK and had the all-new B-Classmedium sized people mover – on

sale in Britain early next year - asthe centrepiece of its display.

Other new models which arelikely to become favourites withBritish buyers included hot STversions of Ford’s Focus estate andFiesta, a new Zafira MPV fromVauxhall and the world’s first dieselhybrid – a four wheel drive versionof the award winning Peugeot 3008crossover model which is said to becapable of averaging almost 75 tothe gallon with tax free emissions of99g/km.

It’s the returnof theSTTHE wraps have been lifted

on the production version ofFord’s stylish new Focus STfive-door – revealing themodel performance car

enthusiasts have been waiting for.And for British and European fansof the Blue Oval badge there will bean equally high powered estate STWagon model launched alongsidethe hatchback next year.

The new generation Focus STwill be more powerful, more fuelefficient and, says Ford, will raisethe bar once again when it comes tohandling.

A result of the combined effortsof Ford Team RS in Europe and theSpecial Vehicles team in the UnitedStates, this is also Ford’s first globalperformance car – to be madeavailable in 40 countries with onlyminimal changes, due to regionallegislation.

Performance comes from aturbocharged four-cylinder 2.0-litreFord EcoBoost engine, providing250PS of power and 360Nm oftorque, while CO2 emissions andfuel consumption are cut by morethan 20 per cent compared to theprevious-generation ST.

And the powerplant is mated to asix-speed manual transmission

with specially revised gearing toproduce the maximum punch fromeach throw of the gearstick.

The ST also looks predictablyeye-catching, from Ford’s signaturemesh grille at the front, through thesculpted side skirts, rear bumperwith diffuser-style vents and roofspoiler on both models.

Tangerine Scream is the newsignature production colour, whilethere will also be paint jobsavailable in Performance Blue,Race Red and White.

Ford says it found the lure ofcreating an ST estate modelirresistible.

“We know many Europeanbuyers favour the carrying capacity

of a wagon, but still want thedriving excitement andperformance a five-door can offer,”said ST chief programme engineerMatthias Tonn.

“With such a stylish wagon in thenew Focus range, we had the idealbasis on which to create a unique

niche model for these customers –and it will be just as exciting todrive as the five-door.”

Three trim options, ST1, ST2 andST3, will be available, the standardgrade including features like clothRecaro seats, keyless start, front

door scuff plates with ST logo andstandard ST rear bench with centrearmrest. Wheels are 18-inch alloysand there’s no an additional‘Performance Pack’ option whichoffers the wheels in black with ahigh contrast red finish on theperformance brake calipers.

MOTORSNissan Juke 1.6 DIG-T Acenta Premium

NNiissssaann’’ss JJuukkeebbooxxgglloorryy

IT’S rare these days for acompact car to come along witha design that blows everythingelse out of the water. That’s thecase though with the

British-built Nissan Juke, a realjoker in the pack when it comes tothe expanding crossover scene.

This baby brother to the topselling Qashqai has just completedits first year of sale, finding afraction short of 15,000 homes – afigure that while far fromunacceptable, nonetheless ensures adegree of exclusivity.

In a way that’s a shame becauseon looks alone you would havethought this Tonka toy of a carwould have people queuing roundthe block to lay their mitts on one.

Nissan’s own description of theJuke is literally a car of two halves -the lower part is pure SUV withchunky wheels, wide tyres,extended ground clearance and arobust stance.

But the top half is unadulteratedsports car with a high waistline,slim visor-like side glass graphicsand a coupe-style falling roof line.

And the coupe effect isunderpinned by rear doors whichhave their handles hidden in theframe of the door, not a newinnovation but definitely aneffective one.

Inside, the eye-catcher is amotorcycle fuel tank-inspiredcentre console with high glosspiano black finish, while theinstruments are clustered under acowl behind the steering wheel.

Given that this is a compact carthere’s no shortage a space for five,including a refreshinglycomfortable rear centre seatingposition, with ample headroom allround.

In fact the only area in which theJuke could do better is with regardto boot space, though what you doget is split level with some hiddenstorage opportunities.

Out on the road, the Nissancertainly delivers and while thenormally aspirated 1.6-litre petroland 1.5 dCi diesel engines performadequately, the 1.6 direct injectionturbo petrol unit in the testedmodel is a cracker.

Trim levels are the familiar Visia,Acenta and Tekna grades, the latterpair featuring a dynamic controlset-up which alters the car’s throttleand suspension settings toaccommodate normal, sports or ecomodes and changes the visualdisplay colour from red to blue

accordingly.No surprise that in sports setting

the Juke really rocks with swiftacceleration and a stiffer ride.

With every car including plentyof standard kit – the likes of electricwindows, air-con, alloy wheels,electronic stability controls, sixairbags and sports seats – and the

higher grade ones addingBluetooth, USB ports and cruisecontrol, you certainly get bang forthe buck as prices start at £13,395.

That’s for a car that the kidsloved and even with the 190PS turboengine was able to return anaverage fuel figure of just under 40miles per gallon.

Kia Picanto landsNorthernCar of the Year awardTHE Kia Picanto has scooped itsfirst major award by being namedNorthern Car of the Year by theNorthern Group of MotoringWriters.

And in an unprecedentedone-two the Korean company’sSportage sports utility vehicletook second spot behind its city

car stablemate. The Ford Focusfinished third.

Kia has been the onlymanufacturer to have figured inevery top 10 short-list in the lifeof the awards and the only oneto have two nominations in thesame year, on three separateoccasions.
