BMW X7 ready in 2013

The project X7 is one of the few who for the moment have not seen the light at BMW: accomplice to the harsh economic crisis that hit the car market and especially the collapse of SUV and pickup sales in the United States of America (territory for the success of this type of vehicle), the home of Monaco of Bavaria has so far always put off the mass production of a model whose design dates back to 2008.

Now the idea seems to be finally back in vogue, because in the meantime have opened new and interesting markets in the Far East, South America (especially Brazil) and Eastern Europe (Russia in particular) that may be suitable for SUV with seven seats and large trunk that really wants to compete directly with the Cadillac Escalade.

It seems that the Bavarian house is thinking more like a model that all'X5 all'X6 (whose line sports too, perhaps not exactly the best, at least for a good part of the customers of the BMW brand) to be launched around 2013, what quite likely given that at the moment there is never even mentioned the arrival of this new SUV between the new expectations for 2012.

What is certain however is that BMW will continue to be the game in this segment, especially since it is one of the few able to gamble without too many problems on several fronts since the economic crisis has not touched its sales, so for cars than for motorcycles, keep going at full speed (as well as revenues) so that in many wonder who are the real reasons that led the German manufacturer to delay so long the launch of the BMW X7 same .

In any case, the press, from the German, presupposes and requires that the new Mercedes BLK can "mount" the same engines of Class A and Class B before moving to the introduction and the launch of version hybrid.

All this comes to the Mercedes with a dual goal: to give a commercial and competitive response at BMW, ready to lift the veil over the coming months, especially during the Frankfurt Motor Show, the "X1", while the 'Audi is planning the launch of the "Q3", the second goal is to go to satisfy a market that still calls the SUV, but who wants them, however, more and more compact.

And if you say that the car market is still in the complex crisis in Europe, in Germany the wind blowing and everything is very different imprinted on product innovation and sustained investment to build the machines of the future.

When you do not know the precise data relating to maximum power and torque, but it seems certain that it will be a limited slip differential to have the task of distributing the same power to the rear wheels.

In any case, the Japanese engineers have explicitly stated that the coupe has been designed for maximum driving pleasure and a march stable but also dynamic and agile in corners.





A certain mystery hangs around even the name of the car, which may be different for American and European markets: in the Old Continent, would Toyota Celica thinking of dusting off the name (with explicit reference to one of the oldest sports models of the Japanese), while overseas the name of the model could be the Scion.
