Estrema Fulminea: Italian competitor Rimac Nevera wants to break the Nürburgring record.

Automobili Estrema, headquartered in Modena, Italy, plans to present a production version of its electric supercar Fulminea (the name translates from Italian as «lightning fast») in June this year and go to the Nürburgring in September to set a record time of passing the North Loop.

We already told about Automobili Estrema in May of the last year. It was founded by Gianfranco Pizzuto, having more than 30 years of experience in automobile business.

For some reason, Pizzuto’s involvement in the failed startup Fisker Automotive (not to be confused with Henrik Fisker’s current company) is especially prominent, but we want to believe that Automobili Estrema will do better.

Pizzuto and his team of experienced Italian engineers and managers want to produce electric sports cars with advanced technical stuffing.

The debut Fulminea, which went from sketches to full-size prototype last year, will be equipped with a four-engine powertrain (one at each wheel) with a combined output of 1.5 MW (2040 hp).

Haval H-Dog 2023.

At the Motor Show in Chengdu, China, the Haval company has introduced a new crossover H-Dog.

This is the next representative of the so-called «dog» family, which already includes models DaGou and KuGou.

The novelty is the largest car in the lineup, but in the published photos it looks compact enough.

This is the merit of the brand’s designers who did a good job on the proportions of its body.

Like the other «dogs», the car has a brutal exterior with a strict «face» and angular arches, which are decorated with 19-inch wheels.

The interior design of the car also repeats that of the DaGou / KuGou. There is a virtual dashboard with an additional upper sector and a large multimedia display.

On the passenger side, the front panel also has a massive handrail.

The flagship crossover Haval H-Dog is preparing for the start of sales.

The brand itself has announced only plug-in hybrid version, but it is already known that the SUV will also have a «traditional» version with a gasoline two-liter turbo engine.

Kia K5 2023.

When the Korean manufacturer KIA planned to replace the Optima sedan on the Russian market with the new K5, it probably could not have imagined, even in its boldest forecasts, that the car would prove so popular.

To explain such popularity of KIA K5 2023 is simple enough.

First of all, the sedan is offered in seven variants that have an excellent level of built-in features.

In addition, the price of the Korean model is still relatively low, starting from a mark of 2.73 million rubles.

In addition, the car is equipped with extremely reliable engines, which allows buyers to consider with confidence the purchase of a business sedan.
