Like the rest of BMW ‘s electric models, the BMW iNExt’s design is dominated by a tall, kidney-grille. The panoramic glass roof fills the interior with all the light coming from the exterior.

There are no door handles which are replaced by gesture-sensors,  nor door-mirrors but cameras instead.

Mercedes has added numerous innovations to the Mercedes AMG GT 4-door coupe; besides a few exterior changes, it now integrates the AMG Dynamics for increased agility, the new AMG Steering wheel as well as a fully digital instrument display.

However, the real star among Mercedes new models is the new Mercedes AMG GT R PRO, a limited edition model, a supercar that makes the driver feel in a motor race.Based on the standard 2016 GT R, it is powered by the same 4 L V8 bi-turbo engine developing 577 bhp but it is faster  owing to weight-saving techniques, chassis upgrades, new suspension and enhanced aerodynamics. The use of carbon fibre components, e.g lightweight bucket seats and lightweight design wheels, make the Mercedes AMG lighter and improve significantly the driving dynamics.

The GT-R Pro reaches 0-97 km/h in 3. 5 seconds and a top speed of 319 km/h. According to Mercedes, at the Nurburgring track circuit, it has completed a lap 5 seconds quicker than the standard GT-R.

BMW 340i

Last but not least in our selection, the all-new BMW M340i sedan is the latest BMW M Performance 3 Series and the most powerful one, ever released.

Using high-strength steel and aluminium, the BMW Sport Division has shed off more than 121 pounds in the new 3 series. With an impressive light weight aluminium 3.0 litre and a six-cylinder inline engine developing 382 hp, the BMW M340i delivers high performance. It goes from 0 to 97 km/hr in 4.4 seconds, 0.5 seconds faster than the previous 340i.

Packed with a host of advanced technology including driving aids that facilitate the driving in traffic jams and help maneuver, the new BMW 3 Series Sedan makes a step forward in automated driving.

The cabin is spacious: more shoulder-room in the front, more leg-room for the three rear-seats that provide excellent support and increased comfort at the back. Likewise the trunk capacity has been enlarged too.
