تعتبر “بوتنزا” الطراز المميز للإطارات الرياضية من “بريدجستون ” منذ عام 1979 منذ إطلاق الجيل الأول من إطارات “بوتنزا”، حيث أصبحت الخيار المفضل لهواة السباقات الرياضية ومالكي السيارات الرياضية. وقد أنشأت علامة “بريدجستون بوتنزا” انطلاقاً من الشغف بسباق السيارات، وطورتها “بريدجستون” لتلبي احتياجات التحكم في القيادة ضمن حلبات السباق والقيادة الرياضية. وبفضل تفوق منتجات “بريدجستون” وخبرتها في تقنيات السباقات، أصبحت هذه العلامة تمثل شريك الإطارات الرياضية لسلسلة من السباقات الرياضية المعروفة مثل “فورمولا وان”، و”جي بي 2″، و”سوبر جي تي”.
Bridgestone Middle East & Africa FZE today announced the launch of the new POTENZA S001 and POTENZA Adrenalin RE002 in Middle East and Africa markets. These two new tyre models developed with the latest technologies and innovative design will enable car owners to experience a new dimension of sports driving.
With a choice of three V8 engines, two of them supercharged, Jaguar apparently were not finding enough buyers for their all-new XJ flagship sedan in “developing” regions such as Russia, China and the Middle East. So as per “demand”, they’ve released a new base model with a 3.0-litre V6 just for these markets.
The AMG version of the 2012 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe has debuted. We have to say, it doesn’t look as monstrous as the outgoing C-Class AMG model, but it will still have that insane 6.2-litre V8 engine.
The last Porsche World Roadshow for the UAE was held two years ago at the Dubai Autodrome. It was a superb event for highlighting the entire Porsche line-up in one go. Seemingly open only to existing Porsche customers and us media types, it was a well-organised event that got us some wheel-time with the 2009 models. We haven’t driven any 911s or Cayennes in the past two years since then, simply because Porsche refuses to give us test cars for more than a few hours, but they did invite us to the 2011 edition of the Porsche World Roadshow,
Inden Design has decided to make the 2011 Mercedes-Benz S500 to look more like the S65 AMG version. It’s probably because the price of the Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG is insanely high and this will offer consumers the same level of sporty looks but without the same level of oomph, not that we are saying this will be any cheaper. Performance is improved slightly, so it’s not all cosmetic.
For some reason, BMW released the new 2012 BMW 6-Series Convertible first, complete with a media launch event in South Africa to which we were not invited, and is already on sale in the UAE, Saudi Arabia and other GCC countries. Now BMW has revealed details about the Coupe version.
Recalls are boring news. They’re in fact so boring that we only cover them once in a while now. The number of recalls per month has actually reduced since the last time we did a rundown, by about 35%. Of course, the general media still chooses to sensationalise some recalls more than others, especially anything to do with Toyota. In the past two months, there have been recalls by Lexus, Land Rover, General Motors, Ford, Honda, Suzuki, Chrysler, Saab and even Mazda, the last of which is a hilarious one.
