Originally posted by milanbenes View Postwe live out in the sticks SAS, chateau benes has very clean air, so a bit more NO from an engine half the size of a modern tractor or combine isn't going to make much difference
and besides, those petrols never have the low revs grunt that modern high performance diesels have, and you have to rev the bollocks out of petrols to get them to do anything and at those high revs it's never a pleasant experience inside the cabin

This car is probably the best glimpse into the future of personal transport. The P100D is the top model of the X range so we get an insane 611bhp and 967Nm of torque, translating to a family SUV that'll reach 62mph in the same time as a McLaren 720S - that's 2.9 seconds!
This car is also brimming with tech. Already installed is all the hardware needed for full self-driving capacity, enhanced autopilot allowing the car to drive itself, find faster lanes and exit motorways. The P100D also has the option of 7 seats, 351 miles of range and soon Smart Summon - allowing you to be able to summon your car with a whistle/click of a button, no more searching aimlessly round car parks!
Make America great again! Stop buying 19th century German diesel crap.Comment

range of 349 miles
my current Q7 diesel with 8 speed auto and 100l fuel tank will do 600 miles on a tank at 100mph with the car fully loaded

The little 2 litre petrol engine in the current John Cooper works Mini pulls like a train and is as fast as my 3.5 litre SL.
And is so damn smooth it's upsetting...
No real need to buy large engines anymore
The SQ7 is asking for trouble. It will get killed by the high priests of emissions before its even run in...
Unless you live in a cave you can't have missed the fake mass horror of all the various countries that are claiming they were fooled by diesel.Comment
