The New Cross Touran


The new Volkswagen Cross Touran is not your conventional MPV. Far from it. Though it easily seats 7 in its spacious cabin, its acceleration will put a smile on your face, and surprised looks on everyone else. Being equipped with a 7-speed direct shift gearbox DSG also makes it surprisingly fuel efficient. Translating to more savings as well as a lower annual road tax.

the Cross Touran will have leading performance figures in its class via its 1.4 TSI twin-charged engine that generates 140PS. This outstanding engine is mated to Volkswagen’s innovative 7-speed Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG).

This enables the Cross Touran to churn out 220Nm from as low as 1,250rpm, reaching 100kph in 9.8 seconds, which is excellent for a compact MPV. The Cross Touran boasts a top speed of 194kph.

Proton Inspira 2.0 Executive

Proton has introduced an Executive version of its 2.0 litre CVT Inspira – the variant replaces the 1.8 CVT Executive in the model lineup, slotting in between the 2.0 CVT Premium and 1.8 MT Executive. Most of the kit found on the 2.0 Premium is on the 2.0 Executive – from the steering wheel audio switches and paddle shifters to the auto light and rain sensors, it’s all here. What’s different, based on the feature specifications list, is that the Executive’s seats and door trim finishing is in fabric (as opposed to the Premium’s leather fitment), the wipers don’t feature automatic speed adjustment and the bodykit has been omitted. Fresh to the car is a new 16-inch wheel design.
