Volvo, Cadillac, Hundai, lexus, BMW, Mercedes,is better?

Study the article is a comparative test in Avtorevyu. Chestno speaking my opinion - Article arrogance, by the way is called there is statya.Dumayu pure order-reklama.Lexus almost last-surprising predictions uzhas.Samoe readers vpechatlyayut.lexus - 49%, Volvo - 32 %, cadillac - 11%, Hundai - 8%. 22 000 votes chelovek.Pri this very magazine put the following estimates - Hundai - 1 seat, Volvo -2, lexus -3, Cadillac -4 sootvetstvenno.Vy think this is true? I Went to the Genesis. Appearance is very confused, and took from each brand on chyuchyut. The lounge leather everywhere, but there is charm and sense of belonging to the elite business class. In life would not have bought the genesis for such money. I'm not saying it's bad, but it lacks zest. Now Genesis is not the same rival BMW and Mercedes. He went on lexus GS300. The first thing that strike the eye, so this small space. Difficult to sit back. Formula if 2 +2. Four-door coupe for the young. But most of all struck skrepyaschaya front panel. Manager Lexus has found 10 reasons to explain this and that creaking leave. Not a very pleasant ride in the car, which squeaks. This is not a Lada. Volvo S80 - a fairy tale. Tested the most complete equipment on the white skin with inserts under the tree. Liked very much. In the lounge anywhere comfortably sit, have worked well over the Volvo. At the Cadillac CTS has never traveled. Would have given her voice for the Volvo S80

Lexus and BMW compete for the U.S.
















In the U.S. the undisputed market leader in terms of sales in recent years was the Lexus. Second place in the ranking are occupied by BMW. But this year the usual state of affairs seems to have changed.Over the past from the beginning of 2009, eight months, Lexus sold only 2,293 cars more than the BMW. If this trend remains unchanged, it will be very little difference in sales of other premium brands since 2002. In addition, Lexus has lagged behind its main rivals (BMW) within five months of this year: from March to July. And only in August sales, which surpassed the sales of BMW at the 3660 units, allowed the Japanese brand to come forward.During July, sales of BMW declined by 28% or 33 936 units, while Lexus has fallen by 42% or almost 40 000 cars. If you take the number of sold cars for seven months in the context of the most popular models, sales of BMW 3-Series fell 24%, and the sedan 5-series - 15%. Their direct competitors IS and ES both showed regression in 36% and GS 350 - by 60%. The "Five» BMW in popularity among buyers for seven months has surpassed its rival GS five times. The Bavarian carmaker also benefited from sales and 1-Series, which has no direct competitor for Lexus.And that's what the Japanese did not concede to their competitors, so it is in the sales of crossovers. Facelift RX has undergone over the past seven months, showed a sales decline of 4%, while the X3 and X5 have become less popular at 70% and 21% respectively over the same period of time. Incidentally, sales of cars - a very serious factor. It showed the best result in this nomination draws a lot of advantages.First, profits won first place lies in the fact that increases the credibility of the brand and, as a consequence, it becomes easier to sell cars. Secondly, the winner in this commercial race will be another advantage in terms of further progress in the market. It is psychologically easier to buy a car, if it is pasted a label "best", "most popular", "number one", etc. But the sellers are bound to enjoy it such epithets.Thirdly, since the calendar year coming to an end, and BMW and Lexus will use whatever marketing tricks, will spend the last dollar out of the advertising budget, just to get a potential client, in order to finish the year at the top. That's good, because the aggressive marketing actions will certainly lower the price that the consumer is always a plus. Finally, such a competition like BMW - Lexus, will be an occasion for both companies to grow, move forward, which again would only plus the whole industry in general and customers in particular, not only in the United States but also abroad.

LEXUS LF-A will be more expensive FERRARI F430

Value of the Japanese sports car will make 225 000 dollars. But before you go to a public sale of the car to take part in the popular racing 24 hours "Nürburgring", which will be held at the famous Nordschleife in Germany.
In the salons of the same LF-A waiting for the end of next year.
It is expected that under the hood of a "Japanese" would be 5.0-liter V10 power of 500 hp. with. But do not rule out the emergence of hybrid power plant.
Price per 225 thousand dollars more expensive than making a new Lexus Ferrari F430, the cost of which in Europe starts from 210 000 dollars.

Lexus vs. Mercedes

Let me and my 5 drops! I am a happy owner and the Lexus and Mercedes. Last year tenure IS 250 was in service at least 10-ka time ... the shock dead, squeaked something that does not start from the first time and so on. And yet, I think, not for anyone not be a secret that all Lexus creak ... or rather squeak Torpedo ... crickets everywhere! And emerge after 1000-2000 km run. Quality Lexus, IMHO, a myth! Otherwise, this would not have been. If nterestno go to www.club-lexus.ru and count ... yes, most owners are satisfied with their cars .. first of all, I think because of the image that they are acquiring a moving on it. But 80-90% of Lexus (novyh. .. I do not know about the old) all skririt! In addition to the IS250 absolutely nekudyshaya braking system. With active driving brakes begin to swim, and shoes must be changed at least 1 time in 10 tyk. I am a 20 tyk said that it was time to change and brake discs, which is neither more nor less than 30 sput with shoes! And the whole car just wonderful! Beautiful and comfortable! But to the quality of it, alas, is far!

To run the motor must click Power - will leave the steering wheel, and the blaze optitronnye devices, while under the hood will be silence. At any limit regimes, even when it started all 445 "horses», Lexus remains a quiet and environmentally friendly vehicle.
Interestingly, when the car is moving, the tachometer needle "is at zero. Directly in front of the driver's face is a screen on which continuous operation is shown where and how at the moment is energy. There are several variants: 5-liter engine to the wheels, from him to the wheels and the battery from the battery to the wheels and even the back - from the wheels to the battery (when the car slows down).

The first allows clicking the button to increase the space of a passenger seated behind seat takes the form of deck chairs, and feet nominated soft platform. A separate control allows you to choose massage, its intensity and location that you want to stretch. As for entertainment - a screen in the ceiling and separate outputs for headphones.

On a pleasant swim, the more that the other participants in the movement always take into account the wishes of the giant.

Lexus LX 470


I ask the readers - like-minded people to be complacent in my reasoning - do not judge strictly!Adjusted fuel consumption (please remember, that is 4-station automatic): In the summer PETROL highway / city - 18/24, GAS - 19,5 / 25. On the track at a speed of 120-140, 140-160 - gas already 22! City - one million, with traffic jams.In early November, made regular and seasonal MOT: replacing rubber - set winter Velcro DUNLOP, checked the spark - the rules! Although passed 30 000 km! replaced oil 6,5 l of 8 liters (take 2 cans Shell 5W40, 1 cun at 1050 rubles, the filter oil at 250 USD, an air filter (changed every 20 000 km) to 300 rubles. Must shpritsovka cardanic (each MOT-2 -- through 9 - 10 tkm) - myself, because what he saw as trying to shalyavit the service station. And, in general, standing nearby, although servismeny this oh-how do not like! "But, after my previous car Nissan presage 1999 . in. almost flew off the wheels after visiting the station on replacing brake pads on a circle - I'm always with the car in rem zone, and let me say something!. is not verified, not verified, but they have not tightened the wheel nuts. This trouble I have found over 1500 km from home, nuts swirled his hands - well, wheels have not yet tapped! came - said they were perplexed, I have already blown the good, because it took almost 3 weeks!
Increasingly I think about installing the Absolute. With this device will add TV (antenna Bosch 1-pin.) By changing the step radio, and will be even and odd-wave stations, antenna, Bosch, besides this, there is a GSM antenna for hundreds of phones. Accommodate the extra DVD with USB (for watching movies and listening to music with a stick), found a place - sacrifice ashtray (the more so because I do not smoke) and a cigarette lighter - the most wonderful place for the second DVD! There will be additional video inputs - for rear view camera and still be able to signal from the GPS-receiver to send staff to monitor! It is necessary to find a place in the walkie-talkie; wave AM15S on the track is very helpful! Already tried!
Wanted to add on edge about the ubiquitous theme about the operation of gas.I tried to drive after the gas at 92 - is not coming! Tried by 95 - even worse. Tucked 98 - SUPER! And, indeed: on octane number (for gas - 102-108) for the gas coming only 98, with OA = 98. But, sorry, its price - 26 rubles! Gas is now in Omsk you can refuel 9-50.

Lexus Cars rightly called the best creation of Toyota, which combines luxury, excellence and technical achievement, and work on the creation of this machine was carried out very carefully for many years. If you consider the Lexus in terms of security of lives, he did out of competition.So, if you currently want to buy really perfect car, be sure to turn your attention to the Lexus. So, what distinguishes us from many other car in terms of reliability? First of all, it should be noted that when buying this machine, you get: all-wheel drive with locking differential on all four wheels and the evolution of car safety, such as: exchange rate stability, the system comfortable braking system protivoskolzheniya (protivoprobuksovki), anti-lock braking system cruise control, I think, now you understood why this car is practically never enters a particularly dangerous bend in the road. Now a few words about the appearance of this machine: There was just that, and the elegance of all the lines that give the image of completeness: guess intriguing grace, strength and comfort, while grace is fully compatible with the highest level of comfort and reliability.Now a few words about the car's interior design: first of all, you have to appreciate its elegance and simplicity with wooden inserts and color, deserve special attention with heated seats, while, the salon is equipped with airbags, which are located around the entire interior (front, side, rear and top), to minimize the risk of injury in the accident. A few words about the advantages of such an arrangement of airbags: frontal collision at the feet of front passengers can traumatize on dashboard and steering column, it had been provided knee airbags, in addition, they restrict the movement of the body in the collision, which reduces the likelihood of injuries of the head and torso . Those who once traveled in these cars will be able to confirm how quietly in their showrooms, as well as the silence with which they go on the road, and there are quite a logical explanation: the streamlined podkuzovnye panels improve aerodynamic efficiency, which makes the car faster, more economical and certainly more quiet. Lexus cars are focused on a certain class of customers: affluent and demanding, a very respectable appearance. The machine turns match for their owners: it is equipped with a richer, and appears to us more reliable and quality manufacture than many rivals from the premium, in addition, it is worth noting the high security settings, and comfort, which in turn is achieved using the most advanced technologies. Let the number of statistics: for example, 1993 ... he was very productive for the company, as sales volume Lexus Cars has overtaken the United States of its German rivals - BMW and Mercedes-Benz, but very close, fresh in memory, 2006 ... sales of 475 thousand ea. that allowed to say that the three most popular models of prestigious brands in the U.S. market include Lexus RX crossover and sedan Lexus IS (in the U.S. - ES), at the same time, we can speak with confidence about the growth of sales, which amounted to approximately 76 , 3%, reaching 39 200 vehicles. But if we consider the sale of the avtomombilya directly in Russia, we can say that Lexus has outstripped all competitors from Germany: four-wheel drive Lexus RX acquired 5 304 people, and he became a best-selling in its segment. So, make such a small record: speaking of Lexus, we mean a division of Toyota, producing luxury models for the U.S. market and Europe, and, just to the left wheel. Pay attention to the very name brand machines, saying his people had once implied word luxury or luxury, luxury cars. Believe me, nothing unusual in that not tons, because initially, when the company was still very young, its main purpose was the release of a luxury car, luxury, luxurious, beautiful, and it remains a priority for the company for many years. It is worth noting that the idea is not glittering novelty as to when the BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, but it does not become a problem for the Lexus, and in August 1983 was held a secret meeting of the board of directors of the corporation Toyota. That it was made chairman Eiji Toyoda (Eiji Toyoda), to his speech was the presentation of ideas, which essentially boils down to something here: challenge the best cars of the world, and nobody was bothered, because Toyota has stood firmly on his feet as the world known manufacturer of reliable, affordable, quality vehicles. Now, the question arose that all produced before the company brand was, as we have said: inexpensive and good quality, but you had something new: a luxurious and prestigious. This is a new brand - Lexus Cars

By the and unlimited ability to be dispersed on direct site IS F also it is obliged to one more first-ever electronic system of adjustment of phases with the electric drive (VVT-iE). In it the electromotor operates opening and closing of inlet valves, operating much faster, than it is done by usual hydraulic systems, increasing a twisting moment, providing smoothness of work of the engine and improving economy of fuel in a wide range of turns of the engine.

Developing Lexus IS F

Engineers Lexus, developing new IS F, aspired to reach phenomenal indicators on high speed at the expense of the whole package of the advanced technical decisions which have passed test on a track. The result is obvious, even when the car is in an absolute rest. Excellent aerodynamics which reduces resistance of an air stream to a minimum, allows to develop track speed to 270 km/hour. That the car as much as possible nestled on a road covering, from composit materials – as on "Formuly-1" – create the rarefied space under a body, effectively raising clamping force and coupling with road.

Aggressor Lexus

Aggressor Lexus it is presented in segment D by model IS. Depending on engine volume to its name the index 200 or 300 is added. This on "kid" the sedan to us is already familiar to concepts with a body For six years, past from the moment of debut IS 200, appearance of the car was a little freshened. The arrangement of lenses and reflectors in headlights has slightly exchanged, an air inlet and in a forward bumper became less. In 2001 have let out version SportCross with a body the versatile person. The name says that it not angular "shed" in which all is subordinated to one – to provide a maximum of a place for cargo. For Lexus such type of a body is faster a craze on universality. The compartment behind back seats and is more than possibilities of transformation of salon here are necessary for transportation of sports stock or things in a long journey. And in a marching condition the luggage carrier even on 60 l is less, than at a sedan. As a whole Lexus IS 200 SportCross looks aggressively, dynamically and promptly. Any rotundities, only рубленые sides. On a cowl and short forward свес – «ис the two-100-th» reminds wide impudently protruding wings, a hump of the predator who has dropped to forepaws who has prepared for a jump. He is ready to attack, and first of all – versatile persons of "the big German three»: BMW 320i Touring, Mercedes With 200 Т and Audi А4 2.0 Avant, and also "Italian" Alfa Romeo 156 2.0 Sportwagon. Then enough to replace simulating air inlets plastic inserts in bumpers with the chromeplated grids-grills and to put wheels diameter (provided for this version 215/45 R17 or 225/45 R17 from IS 300). Even it is not necessary to change an exhaust pipe. The chromeplated nozzle of the big diameter which are looking out from under a back bumper, very much reminds ! And under a cowl already there is a final system "three-two-one" (as on sports or motors) – in it each three of collectors converges in the pipe which only then incorporate in the general.

Lexus IS 250. Test drive

The one who is familiar with Lexus IS the first generation, does not learn the car of the following generation. It has cardinally changed not only outwardly. Lexus IS it is fast, as any car with the powerful motor, it is richly packed, as usual in a premium-segment. High level of comfort and low – noise completely meets the requirements Lexus. However, those who went by the car of the previous generation, with grief will recollect a sport sedan – original in registration and rigid concerning roughnesses. Now Lexus IS another. The history has not repeated, and has gone on the logic spiral.
