Honda e Prototype is more proof of Honda's ambition for electrification. Introduced for the first time in Geneva, Honda's first electric battery for the European market is anticipated.
Further expansion of full hybrid technology
In early 2019, Honda successfully launched the brand-new CR-V Hybrid with two-engine i-MMD full hybrid technology. Honda expects full hybrid technology to play a key role in meeting the target of 100% electrification by 2025.
Honda to develop energy management business for Europe
Honda used the opportunity for a Geneva press conference to share the first details of the developing energy management solutions for Europe. This announcement is based on the concept of Power Manager two-way charging first shown at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2017.
It has been roughly a year since Audi launched the first series of electric drives. Audi e-tron * is still covered with camouflage wrapping foils at this point.
The four-ring brand is now looking at another car using the electric car at the Geneva Motor Show: The Audi Q4 e-tron concept is a compact 4-door SUV with an external diameter of 4.59 meters.
Compact on the outside, wide inside: dimensions and interior
4.59 meters long, 1.90 meters wide, 1.61 meters high: The Audi Q4 e-tron concept takes its place in the third row of the compact class with its dimensions. For this reason, road space requirements describe the electric SUV as an agile, versatile, suitable for urban driving. On the other hand, the 2.77-meter wheelbase puts it in at least one class. The Q4 e-tron concept offers unexpected refreshment and comfort, especially in terms of front and rear footwells, since there is no transmission tunnel that limits the area.
Efficient performance: driving system and suspension
The modular electrification platform (MONE) offers a wide range of driving and power levels. The performance version of the electric drive is mounted on the Audi Q4 e-tron concept. Each front and rear axle is powered by an electric motor - Q4 is a quattro. There is no mechanical connection between the axles. Instead, the electronic control ensures that the torque distribution is optimally coordinated and does so in fractions of a second. This allows the electric SUV to achieve optimum traction in all weather conditions and on any surface.
Sporty, precise handling
The main factor for the sporty character and exceptional transverse dynamics is the low and central position in which the drive components are mounted. The high-voltage battery system matches the dimensions of the Audi Q4 e-tron and is located in a flat, wide block under the passenger compartment between the axles. The battery system weighs 510 kilograms. For this reason, the center of gravity of the Audi Q4 e-tron concept is similar to a sedan with a conventional drive system. The axle load distribution is perfectly balanced at almost 50:50. The front wheels of the Q4 e-tron are guided on a MacPherson axle with an adaptive damper. At the rear there is a multi-link axle with separate springs and adaptive dampers.

With its unique appearance, new operating concept, innovative driving support systems and new engine range, the GLC offers the best of the Mercedes-Benz world.
Its exterior design is fascinated by its wide and sporty visual appearance. Muscular carved surfaces, such as chrome elements that extend from the front to the rear end, as well as distinctive details, redesigned headlights, and heavily shaped radiator grille provide a powerful off-road character.
The interiors are uncompromisingly luxurious and user-friendly: workmanship is high on the usual level and the infotainment system has larger touchscreen multimedia displays. In addition, the latest generation of MBUX - Mercedes-Benz User Experience is impressive with intuitive and versatile operation options such as multimedia system, touch, motion control and optimized voice control system. Driving support systems are significantly expanded and complemented by the exit warning function, emergency corridor function and the tail end of a traffic jam function, among others.
It is also the Trailer Maneuver Assist, which provides new, especially reverse maneuvering assistance. To be released in the middle of 2019, the GLC will provide more efficiency and higher efficiency with new petrol and diesel engines from Mercedes-Benz's newest engine family - more engines will come later in the year.
Freedom in its best form - what the GLC has been waiting for since its release in the fall of 2015. As in its predecessor, SUV combines unusual and off-road driving with freshness, practicality and comfort. In addition, the latest generation offers more advanced technologies, unique design, connectivity and the latest technology infotainment system. For this reason, the GLC once again demonstrates how elegant and effortless brand safety and smart adaptability are to mark great success. The result is an SUV that sets new standards both on and off the road.
The new GLE 53 4MATIC + is equipped with the AMG Performance 4MATIC + fully variable all-wheel drive for maximum traction and dynamism.
The intelligent steering variably connects the permanently driven rear axle with the front axle and continuously calculates the optimum torque distribution depending on the driving situation and the driver's wishes. Four-wheel drive improves longitudinal dynamics, traction and lateral dynamics. The result: stronger acceleration for standing and short sprints.
Total stabilization: AMG ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL suspension
The AMG ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL suspension, developed in Affalterbach, forms the basis of the driving experience characterized by high agility, neutral cornering behavior and optimum traction, based on the AMG RIDE CONTROL + air suspension. A new feature makes a significant contribution to the AMG-specific adjustment for high driving dynamics levels: active cylinder stabilization and fully variable torque distribution with two electro-mechanical actuators operating independently on the front and rear axle.
The system not only reduces rolling movements while cornering, but also provides more precise adjustment of cornering and load changing. In addition, it improves driving comfort when driving straight, because the exciters are counterbalanced, for example, against unilateral road crashes. The movements in the body can be activated and optimally adjusted according to the driving conditions. This means that the form of driving characteristics associated with AMG-specific dynamism, precision and response can be experienced more intensively by the driver.
A further advantage compared to usual hydraulic-based systems is a significantly faster response. The AMG control can adapt the driving status up to 1000 times per second. The sampling rate is thus only one-thousandth of a second. The components also have low weight compared to normal solutions.
Especially long breathing: continuously adjustable damping air suspension
The AMG RIDE CONTROL +, especially the sporty spring / damper adjustment and suspension adjustable damping air suspension ADS + (Adaptive Damping System) combine outstanding driving dynamics with outstanding driving comfort. Damping features can be selected in three modes: "Comfort", "Sport" and "Sport +"; this provides a distinctly distinctive distinction between excellent long distance comfort and sporty driving dynamics. Also, there are two new levels for land use - "Trail" and "Sand"
