Whatever it was, showing the new Audi A4 Cabriolet, the concern has made no secret of the fact that the big sales of this model and does not expect RUSSIA. But the show still stands. After all, beautiful - and rightly so. And in this world, naked beauty appreciate his previous convertible, made on the basis of his beloved by the people "vosmidesyatki", Audi produced between May 1991 and July 2000 and for nine years, every day in the world sold 22 Convertible - "vosmidesyatki" , 13 of them found their buyers in Germany. Now it is difficult to think, but hardly a German daily rate will be sold in Russia for a year. "Eight-ten"-kabriolst officially sold by us since the summer of 1998 (the date of opening of representative office in Russia) in summer 2000, "was leaving" to domestic buyers at one car per season. However, they were serious post-crisis years, and the new Audi A4 Cabriolet, perhaps in a more enviable RUSSIA awaits fate. SON OF THEIR PARENTS Audi A4 Cabriolet has appeared since the sedan and wagon of the same, "A fourth" format. Naturally, this made it easier for designers. Externally convertible fits in the family "quads." The same forked okangoika shiny grille, the same smooth contours, even salon carries the majority of family traits. Differences in the Torpedo can pereechigat but fingers. This modified scale devices (they are "drowned" in the pits - Dust ") round pots and climate control (image thing, it" underlines the dynamism of the car "). Motors - all the same. Today, the convertible is equipped with two serious motor, V- shaped "Six". A 2.4-liter, 170 hp, the second - "masthead" for the fourth series of three-liter engine with 220 horsepower to the two later versions will be added to diesel gasoline - in particular, with a very successful and dynamic 2.5 T01 engine (180 hp). By the way, Audi was the first to put diesels in convertibles, and, despite the apparent absurdity of this decision (a rich playboy who thinks of saving pennies for a mile run - is not it nonsense?) very successful in their production. In Germany, diesel-vosmidesyatki "Convertible-fifth of sales. Of the two brand-name "audishnyh" transmission developments - all-wheel drive quattro and continuously variable automatic transmission "mulgigronik" - today represented only the latest, four-wheel drive, according to Audi, Convertible, originally designed for riding on good roads in warm weather, not very and need. But as soon as the assured "AutoPilot" is representative of the company, Audi feels that the market needed quatro-gigs, they immediately do: borrow-wheel drive sedan or station wagon with no trouble. I left. YOUR ROOF A new A4 Cabriolet will get universal predecessor. It is more vsepogoden. Soft cloth sewn into the roof with metal ribs has a fully automatic transmission. At the stop (in motion the drive is locked automatic) you press the button and the process started - open rear trunk and roof covers the interior. According to the manufacturer, the process takes 24 seconds, in avtopilotovskomu "stopwatch - three seconds more, the previous model was just as otschi automatic drive. In addition, the roof now and implanted heated rear window. Through him, the truth, and in a clear, sunny day shows a little bit. Closed-top car reminiscent of the classic coupe shape and the roof rests delicately in his head high driver's seat (cloth because it is perceived as a mild stroke on the head.) Naturally, in the back seat for "driver taller than average" full-sized adult has nothing to do, although the company did everything to save the day. First of all, wrote in a press release that "Audi A4 Cabriolet" full-fledged four-seater, "and secondly, added rear passenger knee excess of 6.5 cm; and third, led duplicate controls electric front seats on top of the seats (front passenger did not want to move - you rolled it myself), and fourthly, Audi honestly tell the truth about potential customers: the atoms of the liberal professions, young businessmen, honeymooners or couples with children of school age. For the portrait of "ordinary purchaser" gig is to add one more feature: it earns from the S4500 in a month. From the laws of the genre can not escape: convertible - a car for vacation, and organizing presentations at when talking about the capacity of a good car, demostrirovali board for snowboarding, you can sneak into the cabin through a hatch in the back graying, and the capacity of the trunk show measured leading golf bags - - they fit the four (with a raised roof trunk is 315 liters, with folded - 246). The fact that the development was considered one liter luggage, can be seen from the fact that the machine in the base has a chute s: a niche under the rug is not the wheel, and self-repair kit for tires. BEST SUMMER Campfire THAN THE SUN IN WINTER first impression of the new Audi Cabriolet banal: a car for the warm season. Yes, at a speed of 120 km / h when folded up and over the rear seats raised the grid (it mutes the whistle) front passengers Moiyr talk without raising his voice. But even when the air temperature is +20 ° C cooler. Rectify the situation in several ways: to set the climate control to maximum, turn on heated seats and raise the glass. The "tank" machine becomes very easy: the driver's side, a special key that controls all four windows to raise the roof odnovremenno.Mozhno - and the first sharp turn, when a passenger tries to find a hand and grasp the handle on top, to find that it ist. But under the roof of the dust does not fly. In this case the hood is not no need to be fastened. This is an elementary requirement of logic: the car is stable, but powerful engines to provoke a sporty driving style. Rollover head protection, front riders strong aluminum frame of the windscreen and the rear - are released in a fraction of a second metal stops. Unfastened the rider turns his own head in an extra stop. It is doubtful whether he pomogug four airbags, arranged in Torpedo and sides of front seats. Audi A4 Cabriolet I have two interesting features for the Russians. One bad: the car ride height by 2 cm less than the sedans and wagons in the series. That is, outside of paved roads have to go "on tiptoe". There is also a good "glove compartment" in the car is locked with one click on the key - along with the doors and trunk. It soothes, So not only steal from us. National circumstances, to the production of convertibles Audi has signed a contract with Karmann - she was doing part-CABRI Oleta "vosmidesyatok" and was directly involved in the development of a new car. The design capacity of the special ar-structure of production - up to 105 vehicles a day. European sales of A4 cabrio will start in the spring. At the same time it should appear in Russia. Can you see the Audi A4 Cabriolet on Russian roads - depends on buyers. The car will be delivered to us "only under the order (and in Europe only pre-orders already received more than two thousand). In the U.S., where you plan to sell up to 40 percent, of all the machines, sales will begin in the autumn. Up to this time have to adapt the car under the U.S. standards - and they relate to lighting, and toxicity of the engine in Russia has its own requirements and your tastes. Two gigs one of us would prefer a car with tinted, all-wheel drive and the hard top
