Прообраз нового Qashqai и еще 6 концептов ЛА-2012
Мы подготовили обзор самых ожидаемых концепт-каров мотор-шоу, которые совсем скоро могут превратиться в серийные модели.
Acura NSX
Acura несколько раз откладывала премьеру модели NSX – автомобиль сначала планировали презентовать в Москве, а затем в Париже. Долгожданный концепт-кар получит инновационную систему полного привода SH-AWD и гибридную установку, состоящую из бензинового V6 объемом 3,5 литра и двух электрических моторов. Совокупная мощность установки равна 400 лошадиных сил. Разгон с места до 100 километров в час занимает у спорткупе менее 5 секунд.
Выпускаться Acura NSX будет на заводе компании в штате Огайо, США. При удачном стечении обстоятельств компактный спорткар Acura увидит свет в 2016 или 2017 году. Ориентировочная стоимость машины составит не менее 50-60 000 долларов.
Chevrolet Tru 140S
Этот концепт уже показывали в январе этого года на мотор-шоу в Детройте. Однако, по слухам, последняя версия концепта кардинально отличается от первоначальной. Tru 140S ориентирован преимущественно на молодежь, заинтересованную в стильных спорткарах, но при этом предпочитающая не слишком дорогие модели.
Chevrolet Tru 140S представляет собой четырехместное купе с передним приводом. Под капотом концепта – турбированный мотор Ecotec объемом 1,4 литра и мощностью 150 лошадиных сил. О динамических характеристиках не сообщается, зато известно, что новинка будет расходовать до 5,8 литров топлива в смешанном цикле. В компании обещают, что стоимость новинки в любом случае окажется ниже отметки 20 000 долларов.
Infiniti LE
Этот концепт так же, как и Chevrolet Tru 140S, не является принципиально новым. При этом он стал еще на ступень ближе к серийному производству – автомобиль покажут с рядом доработок. Дизайн Infiniti LE подчеркнуто футуристичен и изящен, но эта красота несет и функциональную нагрузку. Дизайнерам Infiniti LE удалось добиться коэффициента аэродинамического сопротивления 0.25 – один из самых низких в мире. Это удалось за счет уникальной формы решетки радиатора, стремительных и плавных линий кузова и 19-дюймовых алюминиевых колес особого дизайна, обутых в шинах с малым сопротивлением качению. Специальная подсветка под задним диффузором указывает, где находится порт для зарядки автомобиля.
В качестве силового агрегата в Infiniti LE установлен электромотор мощностью 136 л.с. с крутящим моментом 325 Нм, который питает 24-киловаттная литий-ионная батарея. Запас хода составляет 161 км. Самое интересное – Infiniti предлагает беспроводную подзарядку, то есть не надо никаких шнуров, можно припарковать машину под окнами и включить зарядку.
Nissan Hi-Cross
Этот концепт – прообраз нового Qashqai. Как сообщил исполнительный вице-президент компании Энди Палмер, при создании Qashqai нового поколения разработчики уделят особенное внимание именно дизайну. По его словам, менять размеры компактного кроссовера нет смысла, поэтому разработчикам придется сосредоточиться на деталях, чтобы сделать новинку не похожей на своего предшественника. Его слова подтверждают последние шпионские снимки – автомобиль заметили во время тестов в Испании.
Тем не менее, почитатели марки убеждены, что новый Qashqai станет принципиально другим. Мотор-шоу в Лос-Анджелесе приблизит автомобиль к серийному производству еще на один шаг.
BMW i3
Революционная линейка эко-мобилей от баварского концерна на пороге дебюта. BMW представит на мотор-шоу концепт i3. Кузов модели выполнен из углеволокна с применением алюминия. Кроме того, новинка имеет двойной пол. По информации английских источников, именно в пространстве между полом и днищем BMW i3 будут спрятаны аккумуляторные батареи.
Первые две модели эко-бренда BMW i – городской автомобиль i3 и спорткупе i8 – должны появиться в продаже в 2013 и 2014 годах соответственно. Согласно планам автопроизводителя, в год планируется выпускать по 100 000 экземпляров BMW i3.
Mercedes-Benz Ener-G-Force
Ранее сообщалось, что Mercedes-Benz выпустит еще один новый внедорожник на базе G-Class – более компактный и доступный по цене. Новинка получит, по предварительным данным, название GLG. Автомобиль позаимствует у Gelaendewagen основные стилевые черты.
Ford Transit Connect
Название, равно как и сам автомобиль, держат в строжайшем секрете – новинка ни разу не была замечена во время тестов. Сам Ford позиционирует свою модель как семиместный автомобиль, адресованный аудитории младше 30 лет. В компании говорят, что эта машина призвана изменить представление потребителей о минивэнах. Автомобиль будет построен на базе коммерческой модели Transit Connect и получит раздвижные двери. Новый автомобиль будет дешевле, компактнее и экономичнее минивэнов Toyota и Honda.
Как рассказали в Ford, молодежи должен понравиться нетрадиционный для данного сегмента дизайн автомобиля, в том числе высокая крыша и квадратные формы задней части. Главный инженер концерна Хау Тай-Танг отметил, что многие из тех, на кого рассчитана машина, выросли в минивэнах и склонны не любить такие машины. Однако новый Ford, по его словам, будет совсем иным, что и позволит ему снискать благосклонность клиентов младше 30 лет.
Chevrolet Tru 140S Concept is the meaner Cruze

General Motors has just unveiled the Tru 140S Concept at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show, the second of it’s youth-oriented concepts. Spiritual sibling to the Code 130S Concept, the Tru 140S is designed to bring exotic styling to the compact segment. Based on the bones of the Chevrolet Cruze, the vehicle comes equipped with the same 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, though with a bit more power. The vehicle puts 150 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque to the front wheels via either a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission. Like the Cruze, GM says a production version of the Tru 140S Concept could be capable of up to 40 mpg highway.
Like it’s rear-wheeldrive twin, the Tru 140S Concept would carry an MSRP of around $25,000 were it to go into production. And how likely is that to happen? GM has made it clear it intends to offer a more stylish, evocative compact vehicle in the near future. Given the fact that the Tru 140S rides on the Cruze platform, there’s a good chance we may see something like it roll out of GM in a few years. Consider our fingers crossed. Hit the jump for the full press release.
Here’s a Concept: Chevrolet Puts Next-Gen Buyers in Charge
Two concept coupes designed to inspire ideas and create discussion
DETROIT – Chevrolet today introduced two concept coupes at the 2012 North American International Auto Show aimed at inspiring next-generation buyers to take the wheel and suggest ideas for a car they can co-create.
“Chevrolet has always stood for making the aspirational attainable for all generations” said General Motors North America President Mark Reuss. “These two concepts interpret that vision for a new generation. We’re seeking out our newest customers’ opinions, listening to their advice, and engaging them in new ways.”
According to U.S. Census data, there are 80 million American consumers approaching 30. They represent 40 percent of today’s potential car-buying public and a combined $1 trillion in purchasing power.
Over the past year, Chevrolet has conversed with young consumers across the United States. Based on their feedback, the Chevrolet concepts explore the styling and functionality this group of new buyers says they are looking for in a car.
Code 130R, the first Chevrolet concept, is a four-seat coupe with a simple upright profile. Painted in an all-new red metallic paint with matte anodized gold wheels, Code 130R features heritage performance-inspired styling and rear-wheel drive. With an aggressive front fascia, Chevrolet fender flares, straight body side and Chevy crossflag emblem, Code 130R makes a link to Chevrolet’s performance heritage.
Code 130R’s designers conceived the turbocharged engine to be tuned to work in tandem with eAssist technology. By shutting off the engine at stops, recapturing braking energy, and smoothing torque during acceleration, this concept takes automotive electrification to the next level and balances turbocharged performance with fuel economy.
Tru 140S, the second Chevrolet concept is a front-wheel-drive, “affordable exotic” four-seat sporty coupe. The three-door hatchback was designed to be an attractive-yet-affordable sports car. Shown in an all-new matte white with Chevy performance chrome wheels featuring crossflag emblems, Tru 140S is designed to look confident, exotic, expensive and fast. Tru 140S is based off the same platform as the Chevrolet Cruze and the groundbreaking Chevrolet Volt electric vehicle with extended range.
Tru 140S designers want to demonstrate technologies typically found in more expensive cars, including direct injection and a starter-based stop-start technology, balancing internal combustion and electrification to deliver high value and improved fuel economy.
The concepts share attributes younger buyers say they value:
Sedan-sized functionality in performance coupe form that seats four passengers
Interior connectivity and convenience featuring innovative storage, WiFi, smart phone integration with Chevrolet MyLink and heads-up display
40 MPG with a 1.4L Turbo Ecotec engine with approximately 150 horsepower
Possible production price range in the low $20,000s
“Young customers tell us they want functionality with coupe-like aesthetics. Both the Code and Tru body styles resonated with this audience,” said Frank Saucedo, director of the GM North America Advanced Design studio in Los Angeles where the two concepts were developed.
Inside the concepts, connectivity and personalization enable the individualization that the generation says is essential.
“This buyer prizes connectivity. Allowing them to stay connected by integrating their personal devices through MyLink and WiFi enabling the vehicle to be their own docking station,” said Saucedo. “The interiors currently exist in 2D only. This allows us the flexibility to continue the discussion and encourage more dialogue as we continue to develop these concepts.”
From Detroit, the pair of Chevrolet concepts will travel to major auto shows, key lifestyle events, one-on-one experiences and other venues such as college campuses. Chevrolet also will engage customers using the social media tools that young consumers use to talk with one another.
“For the car company that can successfully engage this generation, there is a tremendous opportunity,” said John McFarland, senior manager for Chevrolet Global Marketing, who heads youth research for the brand. “At Chevrolet, we want to build authentic and meaningful relationships with these customers on their terms. We want to hear what they have to say, engage them in our design process, and give them what they want – not what we think they want.”

Детройт 2012: Chevrolet Code 130R и Tru 140S Coupe Concept | Фото и Видео
На Автосалоне в Детройте 2012 (North American International Auto Show in Detroit 2012) Шевроле представил сразу два концепта купе: Chevrolet Code 130R и Tru 140S. Выполненные в виде четырехместного спортивного купе, Code 130R и Tru 140S были созданы на основе отзывов и пожеланий молодых водителей в США в прошлом году. Два новых концепта Chevrolet воплотили мечту молодых людей о том, каким должен быть спортивный автомобиль. Работу над спортивными купе выполнила дизайн студия GM North America Advanced Design Studio из Лос-Анджелеса.
Первый из представленных автомобилей – Chevrolet Code 130R. Его передняя часть достаточна традиционна для автомобилей компании, а задняя часть выполнена в стиле Camaro. Общая же форма кузова Chevrolet Code 130R Coupe Concept напоминает BMW 1-Series Coupe. Автомобиль был показан ярко-красном цвете, легкосплавными дисками с золотым отливом. Автомобиль выглядит достаточно брутально и напористо. В подтверждение этому, Chevrolet Code 130R получил классический задний привод и 1,4 литровый бензиновый турбо двигатель Turbo Ecotec мощностью 150 л.с., расположенный в передней части автомобиля. К стати сказать, двигатель оснащен микро-гибридной технологией GM eAssist, позволяющей снизить выделения СО2 и уменьшить потребление топлива.
Другой концепт – Chevrolet Tru 140S Coupe более современен и спортивен внешне. Выполненный в виде трехдверного купе кузов Tru 140S более обтекаем и приземист. На автомобиль был установлен такой же бензиновый турбо двигатель 1,4 литров Turbo Ecotec, но привод сделан на передние колеса. В обоих автомобилях инженеры и дизайнеры Шевроле постарались сочетать функциональные возможности и эстетику кузова купе. Code 130R и Tru 140S получились яркими и молодежными. И, что не мало важно, стоимость автомобилей на американском рынке не превысит 20000$. Следите за новостями на DailyAuto.ru.
