Honda Cross Tourer 1200. Honda is proud to announce the expansion of its state of the art V4 model line up by introducing the new Crosstourer, first launched as a concept model in 2010 at the Milan EICMA show.

The Crosstourer will deliver all the fun and excitement of a sports tourer with the comfortable upright riding position and manoeuvrability of an adventure machine. This is underpinned by Honda's V4 expertise and Dual Clutch Transmission with new functionalities.

It's been seven years since its initial release so the 2017 Porsche Panamera was due for some revisiting. The second gen Panamera fortifies the car's raison d'être of luxurious comfort with sports car performance, the latter thanks to three new biturbo direct injection engines: a V8 delivering 550hp in the Turbo, a V6 producing 440hp for the 4S, and a 422hp V8 diesel in the 4S Diesel.

All can be coupled to permanent all wheel drive and a new eight speed dual clutch transmission.

1.2liter turbocharged direct injection unit is now coupled to a 7 speed dual clutch gearbox or DSG which Volkswagen likes to call it. It now makes 105ps and 175Nm of torque. The 1.6liter engine and gearbox are carried over from the Polo Sedan and are called the Volkswagen Vento Trendline and Comfortline respectively.

Wait. 105Ps sounds like it makes the same like the older 1.6liter engine. Well it is but the more basic 1.6 makes less torque – 153Nm.
