On the international showroom in New York the German manufacturer should present the open version of model Beetle, however the cabriolet debut was canceled.
The world presentation of Volkswagen Beetle Convertible is postponed for half a year for the reasons which remain obscure. Official acquaintance to model takes place now only in November on the motor-show in Los Angeles. Open version of model in Europe, most likely, will be on sale with three petrol motors capacity 105 h.p. (1.2 liters), 160 h.p. (1.4 liters) and 210 h.p. (2.0 liters), and also two diesel engines which develop 105 h.p. (1.6 liters) and 140 h.p. (2.0 liters). Depending on a complete set and type of the motor of Volkswagen Beetle Convertible it begins to be completed with a six-step mechanical gear box and transmission with double clutch. The main feature of a novelty is a roof consisting of several sections made of cloth which can be shifted or to “gallery”, or completely to clean for rear seats. Let’s notice that the German concern plans to exhaust the sports version of “bug” with the 2.0-litre motor capacity around 270 h.p. and the electric variant of the car equipped with the 116-strong electric motor and the complete set lithium-ion of batteries.


Nissan some hours prior to opening of the international exhibition in New York spread official information on new generation of sedan Altima on the Internet. In an exterior of four-door model there were essential changes. In a front part of a body auto engineers of Nissan replaced an old radiator enclosure on new with the chrome plated fringing, corrected design of the pointed head optics and drew to the car other bumper. Among “stern” elements the chrome plated decorative molding on a boot lid, the big flashlights which reach rear quarter pillars, and two branch pipes of an exhaust system especially brightly look.
