Sales will begin next year Earlier this year, Mercedes-Benz combined the C-Class coupe and E-Class into the new CLE. On Tuesday, the company unveiled a more powerful version called the Mercedes-AMG CLE53, which will go on sale in the United States in 2024. [caption id="attachment_85689" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Mercedes-AMG CLE53[/caption] Under the hood of the new coupe is the AMG-developed 3-liter M256M inline six-cylinder turbocharged engine. It produces 443 hp. and 559 Nm of torque, which can increase torque to 600 Nm in a 12-second interval thanks to the Overboost function. Mercedes estimates the CLE53 can accelerate to 96 km/h from a standstill in 4 seconds. Top speed is electronically limited to 250 km/h. The engine is equipped with optimized combustion chambers, redesigned intake and exhaust ports, new piston rings and improved injection. A larger exhaust turbocharger increases boost pressure to 22 psi, working in conjunction with a new electric auxiliary compressor. It also features a second-generation integrated starter-generator, a vital component of the vehicle's 48-volt mild hybrid system. Mercedes-AMG CLE53 2024 presented [caption id="attachment_85690" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Mercedes-AMG CLE53[/caption] The CLE53 sends power through an AMG SpeedShift TCT 9G transmission, which transfers it to the standard AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive system. Stopping power comes from 14.6-inch front brakes with four-piston calipers and 14.2-inch rear brakes with single-piston floating clamps. The optional AMG Performance Studio package gives the coupe a more pronounced rear spoiler on the trunk and a rear diffuser between the tailpipes. Two AMG Night packages and two AMG Carbon Fiber packages will also be available. [caption id="attachment_85691" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Mercedes-AMG CLE53[/caption] Inside, there is a 12.3-inch free-standing display in front of the driver, and an 11.9-inch center screen. The AMG Performance package includes seats with improved support.

It will affect almost 73,000 cars The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on November 29 began investigating 72,926 second-generation Chevrolet Volt hybrid vehicles for a variety of issues including loss of power, reduced energy consumption and inability to restart. The US auto safety regulator said a preliminary assessment of 2016-2019 Chevrolet Volts was conducted after receiving 61 complaints. They report a loss of driving force associated with the vehicle's battery energy management module. According to NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI), the suspected failure "may cause loss of motive power, including stalling, a reduced power condition, or failure to start." Loss of motive power can occur at various speeds, and "the vehicle may not be able to subsequently restart." Some complaints allege that blackouts or blackouts occurred with little or no warning. [caption id="attachment_85491" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Chevrolet Volt a[/caption] Loss of power, reduced energy consumption and inability to restart make Chevrolet Volt a “moving target”. According to Reuters, a Los Angeles owner said his Volt “suddenly and unexpectedly lost power while driving. The vehicle can no longer start or move.” Another owner complained that the Volt couldn't go faster than 60 km/h on the highway and would "stop driving on electric." “ODI is beginning a preliminary assessment (PE) to determine the scope and severity of the potential problem and to fully evaluate potential safety concerns,” the agency said in a document. “A stalled vehicle, along with its operator and passengers, becomes a stationary target,” the ODI document states. GM told Reuters it was cooperating with NHTSA's investigation and said it believed it had "taken appropriate actions to address customer concerns related to the battery energy monitoring module." The automaker added that it "will continue to support the agency's review of this matter."

In this rating, cars are very popular among buyers The Chrysler 300C came out in 2011 and is about to turn 13 years old. However, its platform is even older - from the mid-2000s, it was created in collaboration with Mercedes. Despite this, the brutal sedan is in demand in the USA. And even more: according to Consumer Reports, such a car is sold with a decent markup of 12% relative to the recommended price. [caption id="attachment_83236" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Toyota Prius and Kia Telluride[/caption] Toyota Prius and Kia Telluride included in anti-rating This is attributed precisely to conservatism: the Chrysler 300C is a prominent representative of old-school engineering. Enthusiasts are hunting for special versions with a 485-horsepower V8, and dealers, understanding the value of the car, are ready to raise prices. In second place is the popular small pickup truck Ford Maverick, and in third place as the most overrated new car is the Kia Stinger. The Stinger has never been particularly popular in the United States, but buyers are willing to pay a premium for a model that will soon become history. But with the Kia Telluride and the new Toyota Prius, the story is classic - these cars are very popular in the USA in their own right, so dealers are not averse to making extra money. Finally, in 10th place with an average markup of 6% relative to the retail price is the Toyota Supra. And here the explanation for the increased price is not obvious: perhaps buyers are willing to pay more because of... a manual transmission.

Official premiere coming soon The Russian Chery Arrizo 8 sedan, which is being touted as an alternative to the Toyota Camry, will soon have a version with a hybrid powertrain. It's called the Amulet A8 PHEV (or Fengyun A8 PHEV), and Chery has already released a couple of official images of the sedan. [caption id="attachment_78572" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Chery Amulet A8 PHEV[/caption] Externally, the car is no different from the regular petrol version, the same can be said about the interior.

It could be presented as early as November Toyota published a teaser of the future car on the Internet with the caption “A new dawn is coming.” The company did not explain which car we are talking about, but most likely the picture shows the new Toyota Camry. There are several signs that indicate this. [caption id="attachment_71985" align="alignnone" width="780"] new Toyota Camry[/caption] Firstly, the new Camry is expected to be released in 2024, and the timing of the teaser is well in line with this plan. Let us remind you that the current Camry XV70 debuted in 2017, and in 2020 it was restyled. But by industry standards, she's already an old lady. This is the new Toyota Camry. First image published [caption id="attachment_71986" align="aligncenter" width="780"] new Toyota Camry[/caption] Secondly, although the picture is darkened, the silhouette of the car in the image is still similar to a Camry. But the headlights seem to be borrowed from the new Prius. The public debut of the new generation Camry may take place as early as this year: either at the SEMA 2023 tuning show (to be held from October 31 to November 4), or at the Los Angeles Auto Show (from November 17 to November 27). Both events are North American, and this is significant: it is in the USA that the Camry is still a hit, despite its age.

It sits one step below the Seltos in the Kia hierarchy. Kia has published the first video teaser of the updated Sonet crossover. And although the company tried not to highlight details too much, there are images of both the exterior and interior of the car. In the car's teaser video, Kia uses the tagline “Wild. Reborn." [caption id="attachment_85143" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Kia[/caption] [caption id="attachment_85144" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Kia[/caption] "Wild. Reborn." Kia announced and showed the updated inexpensive crossover Kia Sonet The Sonet will receive a new design of the front end (headlights, bumper, radiator grille), and innovations in the interior will include a dashboard and Bose acoustics. [caption id="attachment_85145" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Kia[/caption] It is also possible that there will be some innovation under the hood: the crossover may get a more powerful engine (current Sonet engines produce from 83 to 120 hp). The Kia Sonet will make its full debut in India on December 14.

And there are only two chief inspectors dealing with it The expensive Toyota Century SUV is produced in small batches, so the company carries out strict quality control at the output. The company spoke about this in its corporate magazine Toyota Times. [caption id="attachment_84999" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Toyota[/caption] If in the classic case dozens of people evaluate the final assembly of cars, then in the case of the Century there are only two. And to do this job, chief inspectors had to go through a rigorous training program. [caption id="attachment_85000" align="alignnone" width="780"] Toyota[/caption] Toyota explained how the Century luxury SUV is checked after assembly. Inspection of a car released from the assembly line includes 17 stages. It all starts with assessing the color and fit of the body panels: there should be no gaps or unevenness at the joints. Pictured below is Moriaki Higa, one of the two chief inspectors. According to him, the Century SUV has stricter "acceptance" standards than the Lexus. For example, while at Lexus, paint quality testing is usually carried out on a sample of cars, in the case of Century, each car is thoroughly inspected. [caption id="attachment_85001" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Toyota[/caption] If the paint and body are OK, the Century is sent on its own to another inspection station to check the mechanical parts. At the same time, it moves on pure electricity (Century, we remind you, is a rechargeable hybrid). After this, the SUV is sent to a special test track, where it is tested on uneven surfaces to identify suspicious noises or knocks. All procedures take the chief inspector about 3.5 hours. But given that they produce only 30 cars a month, Toyota can afford to take its time.
