  27. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="/img/evo_magazine_supercar_and_performance_car.jpg" alt="Performance car reviews" align="left" /><p>The smooth 4.0-liter twin-turbo V-8 in the RS7 Performance produces a robust 605 horsepower, just five fewer than the 5.2-liter V-10 in the blazing-fast R8 supercar, as a matter of fact. Its 553 lb-ft of torque outmuscles the R8 by 140 lb-ft and the non-Performance RS7 by 37. The extra output comes mainly from a new overboost function and different turbocharger turbines, but the Performance’s V-8 also has revised valve timing, new exhaust valves, different camshafts, higher-efficiency radiators, and a reprogrammed control unit. (The new S8 Plus has the same 605-hp engine, but that car is tuned more for refinement versus the more-frenetic RS7.) As you’d expect, then, there’s plenty of thrust available, all the time, and it’s impossible to keep from grinning like an idiot during high-speed passing maneuvers and full-throttle romps away from stoplights. Zipping around sweeping on-ramps is fun, too, the lovely perforated steering wheel transmitting strong signals of the relationship between the meaty front tires and the pavement. The eight-speed automatic—remapped for this amped-up application—is an eager accomplice. Few paddle-shifted cars compel us to use their paddles, but the RS7 is a different beast; it’s highly satisfying to have this excellent drivetrain at your direct command. The transmission shifts instantly when you thwack the appropriate paddle, and the engine roars like a wild animal, fierce and alive. Upshifts just mean more velocity piling onto the speedometer, all the way up to a stated top speed of 190 mph. Downshifts are just as scintillating, the needle flinging up the tach and the exhaust burbling viciously. The RS7 Performance comes standard with the sport exhaust that’s optional on the 560-hp RS7. That less-powerful RS7 will continue to be available, and Audi of America execs figure the sales split will be 50/50. The $20, 100-dearer RS7 Performance is actually a good deal, since it comes with carbon-ceramic brakes that aren’t available on the base car, as well as some tasteful aesthetic upgrades and the delectable engine alterations. One note: As is sort of a trend of late—witness Dodge’s two-key strategy for its Hellcat products—the RS7 doesn’t allow its full fury to be accessed right away. One must be in Dynamic mode and/or have the transmission in the manual or sport positions in order to dip into the full 605 horses. Doing so also makes the throttle tip-in pretty touchy, so you might want to keep it in the 560-hp mode if, say, you’re shuttling your in-laws home from dinner. The Performance also gets Dynamic Ride Control suspension (DRC), which is part of the $3500 Dynamic package on the regular RS7 and trades out that car’s air suspension for sportier steel springs. The DRC dampers are connected diagonally across the car with hydraulic fluid, notably improving attack angles during cornering. The RS7 is the only current Audi with DRC, although we’ve previously experienced it in the RS4, RS5, and RS6.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  54. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="/img/10_of_the_best_compact_cars.jpg" alt="10 of the Best Compact Cars" align="left" /><p>Compact sedans have never offered more for your money. Once purchased primarily for their low price, high fuel efficiency and ease of operation, compacts served to inexpensively transport an individual or small family from Point A to Point B. Economy usually took priority over excitement, and buyers' aspirations often took a back seat to budget realities. Thankfully that's all changed. Today's compact sedans retain the core competencies that made them successful, but now boast much more in terms of ride quality, creature comforts, safety, technology, and even design. There's also more - and better - competition than ever. For decades the Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic were kings of the segment, but in more recent years their respective thrones have been challenged by some princely upstarts. This is all positive news if you're in the market for a new compact sedan. The hard part comes down to choosing between a good sedan and a great one, or more importantly, the one that best suits your tastes and needs. And that's where this comparison comes into play. We drove six of the most popular compact sedans - a Ford Focus, Honda Civic, Kia Forte, Mazda3, Nissan Sentra, and Toyota Corolla - hundreds of miles over two days down the California coast to the San Diego area and back to Orange County to flesh out their differences. As we traveled over freeways, highways, rural roads and amid city traffic, we tested each car's attributes, for better or worse. Our editors spent another couple of days with the cars standing still, measuring real-world trunk space, assessing seat comfort, poking at controls, and testing how their tech and infotainment systems worked. The result is this, our 2014 Compact-Sedan Comparison Test. While all of these 5-passenger compact sedans feature 4-cylinder engines with similar power output, and most were priced within roughly $1, 550 of each other, distinct personalities surfaced for each. Which one is a match for yours? Here is a summary of each vehicle (in alphabetical order and with the as-tested price for our particular test model), with links to how each fares against the others. When the latest-generation Ford Focus debuted for the 2012 model year, it stood out for its looks and fun driving manners. The Focus is still stylish and nimble, but its overall sparkle has dimmed amid stiffer competition. After decades of honing, the Honda Civic remains one of the smartest choices among compact sedans. Efficient, easy to drive and loaded with features that mostly hit the mark, the Civic was also the lowest-priced among our test group. Though technically newer than its rivals by its model year (Kia tends to release its models early), the 2015 Forte costs the same as the 2014 model and brings slightly improved fuel economy to boot. The most-expensive sedan among our group, the Kia also boasts the most features and horsepower. Easily winning the title of Most Athletic, the all-new-for-2014 Mazda3 also charms with its fuel efficiency, winning design and slick infotainment system. A perennial resident of our 10 Coolest Cars Under $18, 000 list, the latest Mazda3 is better than ever. The Sentra may not have the visual pop or driving pizzazz of others, but when it comes to roominess, value and comfort, Nissan's entry stands tall. You may just think of it as a smaller version of Nissan's acclaimed Altima. Toyota's bestseller received a makeover for 2014, and the 11th-generation Corolla now brings a heavy dose of style to the party. Remaining are its efficient powertrain, roomy interior and easy operation.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  72. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="/img/consumer_reports_ranks_the_best_and.jpg" alt="Consumer Reports ranks the" align="left" /><p>Reliability Ratings show you how well vehicles have held up compared with competitive models, and the odds that you could be inconvenienced by problems and repairs. A vehicle's reliability can seriously affect how satisfied you'll be with a car over the years, and it can significantly influence resale value when you're ready to replace the vehicle. Important as it is, reliability is a difficult—and expensive—quality to evaluate, because the information has to come from vehicle owners. The more, the better. Consumer Reports provides the most available to consumers (available to subscribers). It's based on CR's annual surveys of our over 8 million magazine and website subscribers. These surveys ask about any serious problems they've had with their vehicles in the preceding 12 months. They generate hundreds of thousands of responses—the 2015 survey, for instance, provided information on more than 740, 000 vehicles—which give us a solid foundation for our reliability Ratings. We provide reliability information in several forms. For used-car buyers we give Ratings for 17 different trouble areas over ten model years, so you can see a model's individual strengths and weaknesses. We also provide a Used Car Verdict for each model year that sums up its overall reliability. The verdicts are weighted to emphasize areas such as the engine-major, transmission-major, cooling system, and drive system, which can be more serious and expensive to repair. For new-car buyers we provide a Predicted Reliability Rating that indicates how vehicles currently on sale are likely to hold up. To create these Ratings, Consumer Reports averages a model's Used Car Verdicts for the newest three model years, providing it wasn't significantly redesigned during that time. Predictions are made for some new models if the manufacturer's track record or the model's history has been consistently outstanding. All of these Ratings are included in the Reliability History charts and in the vehicle overviews. Other sources of reliability information are available online. Even if they lack the reach of Consumer Reports' data, they provide a supplemental source of information. The most widely known of these services is J.D. Power and Associates. The Power survey that would be of most interest to new-car shoppers is the Initial Quality Survey (IQS). Designed to help automakers gauge the initial quality of the vehicles they're producing, it is based on about 84, 000 responses. But it covers only the first 90 days of ownership, a period in which relatively little goes wrong. It also asks owners about many subjective impressions of their vehicles, not just serious problems they've had. J.D. Power surveys are also the source for reliability data on some other sites, such as Edmunds.com, Kelley Blue Book, and CarFax. Some websites provide reliability scores based on feedback from consumers who visit the site and fill out questionnaires. The number of reviews for a particular model, however, can range from only a handful to hundreds. MSN Autos provides service data based on input from master service technicians. This gives you details about common problems and estimated repair costs for a particular model.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  99. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="/img/758743.jpg" alt="2016 Renault Clio RS 220 EDC" align="left" /><p>You can have the more practical Honda Jazz for the same sort of money. However, the Clio is still spacious enough to let an average-sized adult sit behind a six-foot driver. Every version has rear doors, so it's easy to get in and out of the back of the car, too. And the boot is about the same size as a Ford Fiesta’s, meaning it can take most baby buggies. There are a few storage cubbies for your odds and ends between the front seats, but the glovebox is tiny. Comfort 7/10 A bit unsettled at times, but quieter than most small cars The seats in the Clio are quite soft (unless you go for a GT or Renaultsport model), which means they feel very comfortable at first, but aren’t especially supportive on longer journeys. You can also feel the car shimmying around beneath you on bumpy or patched-up road surfaces, but the ride is never harsh. The Clio is one of the quietest small hatchbacks around, with the 1.5-litre diesel engine particularly impressive. Dashboard layout 7/10 Controls are more user-friendly in pricier versions Cheaper versions of the Clio have a rather fiddly stereo, but Dynamique models and above swap this for a touchscreen control system that’s easier to use. Its menus are logically laid out and the software responds quickly. The only thing that lets it down is the way some of the onscreen buttons are positioned closely together, because this can makes it tricky to press the one you want while driving. At least the ventilation controls are a doddle to use, whichever version of the Clio you choose. The dashboard looks smart, but you don’t get the classy, soft-touch plastics that you do in aVW Polo. Easy to drive 7/10 Only let down by restricted over-the-shoulder view The Clio’s steering is effortlessly light in town, and it’s an easy car to drive smoothly in stop-start traffic because the pedals feel precise. Unfortunately, manoeuvres such as changing lanes and reverse parking are harder than they should be, due to sizeable over-the-shoulder blind spots. The cheapest engine is a 1.2-litre petrol that feels rather weedy. But the turbocharged 0.9-litre petrol and the 1.5-litre diesel are both strong enough to haul the Clio up motorway inclines without you having to select a lower gear to help. An automatic gearbox is standard with the more powerful petrol engines and an option on the diesel. Fun to drive 8/10 Some rivals handle better, but it’s still enjoyable to drive It doesn’t lean over dramatically when you ask it to change direction, and the steering guides you accurately enough at all times. There’s also a high performance, Renaultsport version that feels sharp and extremely grippy on winding roads. Unfortunately, this is undermined by its standard automatic gearbox, which is rather slow to change gear in most modes, even when you take manual control using the steering column-mounted paddles. Only the Race mode makes gearshifts feel properly quick. Unfortunately, this also disables the stability control system that is designed to help the driver regain control if the car goes into a skid. Reliability 8/10 Warranty and breakdown cover last for four years Renault doesn’t have a particularly good record in the JD Power customer satisfaction survey, finishing 19th out of 27 manufacturers in 2013, but the latest Clio was too new to be included. Renault also provides four years of UK roadside assistance and three years of Europe-wide assistance. Fuel economy 9/10 Very efficient if you choose the right engine The two 1.2-litre petrol engines are a little thirsty, but the 0.9-litre turbo petrol averages more than 60mpg in official Government tests, while the 1.5-litre diesel has an official average of almost 90mpg if you choose the Eco variant. These figures are comparable with those of the most efficient small hatchbacks, and while you’ll struggle to match them in the real world, the Clio is still a frugal choice. Just bear in mind that diesel versions cost more to buy, so you’ll have to cover a lot of miles before you see any savings. Affordability 8/10 Attractively priced and running costs are low There are some pricey versions of the Clio, but it generally undercuts equivalent versions of the Ford Fiesta and VW Polo, while costing about the same a similarly-equipped Peugeot208. The Clio should still be worth a reasonable amount if you decide to sell it on after three years, too. And road tax and insurance bills are pretty low. If you buy your Clio using Renault’s Selections finance scheme, you get free servicing for the first four years or 48, 000 miles - whichever comes first. Even if you don’t, you can buy a four-year fixed-price service package for around £300. Safety 9/10 Should perform very well in a crash The Clio comes with six airbags, including two that run the length of the car at window level, and this helped it earn a five-star rating when it was crash tested by independent safety body Euro NCAP. True, the Ford Fiesta and VW Polo scored slightly better for adult occupant protection, but the Clio had the advantage over both these rivals when assessed for child occupant and pedestrian protection. Renault also matches Ford and Volkswagen in fitting electronic systems that enhance braking force and stability. Standard spec 7/10 Fine if you avoid the cheapest specification The cheapest Clio is the Expression, which comes with front electric windows, a Bluetooth hands-free phone connection and a USB socket that lets you connect your iPod to the stereo. You do have to upgrade to the Expression+ model, though, if you want alloy wheels and air-conditioning. The Dynamique MediaNav version of the car adds a touchscreen satnav system, a more powerful stereo and some smarter interior trim. Meanwhile, the Dynamique S MediaNav also has rear parking sensors and a climate control system that automatically maintains whatever interior temperature you set. The GT and Renaultsport models swap these last two features for sportier looks - and in the case of the Renaultsport, a more entertaining drive - while the Renaultsport Lux model has pretty much everything as standard.
