VW Beetle Cabriolet By ABT
Volkswagen isn鈥檛 offering a GTI version of the Beetle, but with a little help from a tuner like ABT the car can become a proper hot hatch. In this case, work started with a power boost, which raised the output to 290 PS and 430 Nm of torque. That鈥檚 already more than what you鈥檇 get in the 245 PS Golf GTI Performance. The extra 70 PS and 80 Nm of torque definitely help shave something off the 0-100 km/h sprint time. Unfortunately, though, ABT hasn鈥檛 went into specifics. The updated Beetle sports six-piston brake calipers and 370x35mm ventilated discs up front, as well as new suspension springs, which bring the car closer to the ground. This Beetle Cabriolet has also welcomed a bronze wrap to emphasize its special stance. Moreover, it now sits on 19-inch alloy wheels with a five double-spoke pattern, in silver-bullet shade, but the color was an optional extra, as the rims are supplied in standard gun-metal or matte black. The cabin is dominated by lots of leather with contrast stitching on just about every visible surface, from the seats to the door panels, and from the dashboard to the steering wheel. All black plastic panels have been covered in real carbon.
The first Audi A4 was launched in November 1994 and had an alias of Type 8D. The first generation Audi A4 was based on the Volkswagen Group's B5 platform same as the fourth generation VW Passat. Its engine was mounted at the front and was front-wheel-driven. For the first year, the Audi A4 was a saloon only, the estate model was launched in the following year. In Europe, it was available in many variants of engines; 1.6litre and 2.8 litre in petrols and a 1.9litre diesel engine with VW's VE technology. However in North America, until 1997, the only engine offered in Audi A4 was a 2.8 litre V6 engine. Volkswagen Group's landmark 1.8 litre 20v engine was first introduced in Audi A4 and had five valves per cylinder, the turbocharged engine was capable of producing 148 bhp and 155 lb-ft of torque. In 1996, the whole family of V6 engines were mated with the same technology, starting with the 2.8 litre V6 that could now produce 190bhp. Audi's triptronic automatic gearbox also made its debut on the B5 platform.
It offers the driver not only the conventional gearbox but also it has a torque converter that allows the driver to choose between fully automatic or manual operation. The A4 received a facelift in 1997 and was known internally as B5. It made its first appearance in the Frankfurt Motor Show and the production followed in 1998. The 2.8 litre 12 valve was replaced by the 2.8 litre 30-valve V6 engine. The Quattro variant was powered by the 2.5 litre V6 TDI diesel engine. All of the engines were mated with a six speed manual gearbox as standard. The high performer Audi S4 was also added to the Audi A4 in 1998. Outside, many cosmetic changes were made to the body including new headlights and rear lights, door handles and other tweaks in the interior. The KKK K03 turbocharger was also revised, although it remained fundamentally the same, the turbine sides were updated to avoid cracking caused by the heat.
