Jaguar XKR-S Cabrio

Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabrio
400 horsepower, the hundred kilometres an hour mark reached in 4.3 seconds and a top speed of 299 kilometres an hour… data which hold real promise. In the case of the new Porsche 911 Cabrio in the Carrera S version, however, the figures tell only half of the story. We tested the new top-down 911 and can tell just how much fun is to be had with the high-tech sportster from Swabia.

Auto Test
BMW 5-Series ActiveHybrid
One almost does not notice that in the BMW 5-Series Hybrid there is an electric motor and an array of batteries as well as the 306 horsepower turbocharged petrol engine on board. The question is, however, whether this is a good thing or not. And whether there is in fact any good reason for buying this model.
