The five door version of the new Volkswagen Up is identical in all respects to its three door sister, when it comes to external size, internal passenger and luggage space. The only major difference is the two extra doors, which greatly facilitate entry and exit for rear seat passengers. It is expected to arrive on the market towards the middle of this year. Prices will be announced closer to the introduction of the model.

PEUGEOT 3008 HYBRID

The Peugeot 3008 diesel hybrid, is due to make its appearance in Peugeot dealer showrooms in February, where prospective customers will be able to inspect it

and arrange a test drive if they are interested. The 3008 is unique in that it is the world’s first diesel electric hybrid. If interested they can place their order, but the car

will not be available for delivery until April.

Power is provided by Peugeot’s highly respected 2.0 HDi diesel engine. It delivers 120 kW and drives the front wheels. There is also a 27 kW electric traction motor driving the rear wheels. The electric motor is active at lower speeds, provides additional power when starting and acts as a generator on deceleration and braking, to top up the traction batteries. Taken together the diesel + electric combination provides 147 kW, which gives a combined cycle fuel consumption of 74 mpg (3.8 lt/100 km) with exhaust emissions of just 99 gm/km, when equipped with 17 inch

diameter wheels. The higher specification model, fitted with 18 inch diameter wheels as standard, has emissions of 108 gm/km. Both allow the 3008 Hybrid to fall into Irish road tax band A, with a current annual charge of Euro 160. Power is transmitted through a superb electronically controlled, six speed automatic/manual gearbox. Automatic Stop/Start is fitted as standard.

Prices start at €36,995 plus delivery and associated charges.

Service intervals are the same as for conventionally powered 3008 models at 30,000 km (18,000 miles)/2 years.

The batteries and hybrid powertrain come with a five year guarantee.

5-DOOR HATCHBACK

he test programme for this car was significantly different to most of the other cars I deal with. There was very little city and suburban driving, but a lot of long distance travelling. On the first day there was the usual city and suburban driving around Dublin city and county. On the second day we headed up to Belfast, where we took the Stena Line ferry to the new terminal in Cairn Ryan, before continuing through Scotland and northern England to Gateshead. We spent a few days in Gateshead, before returning via Cairn Ryan and Belfast to Dublin.

T ROAD TEST

By KEVIN FENIX www.twincam.ie

Out on the open road, be it motorway, dual carriageway or simply a country road, the car was a relaxing and effortless cruiser. The 1.6 litre diesel engine, is smooth, silent and powerful. It is also remarkably economical in its thirst for fuel. According to the EU testing standards, it manages a tremendous 76 mpg (3.7 lt/100 km) on the extra urban cycle, 55 mpg (5.1 lt/100 km) on the urban cycle, giving an average of 67 mpg (4.2 lt/100 km) on the combined cycle. While I didn’t actually get an opportunity to measure it myself, I was certainly impressed by the very slow movement of the fuel gauge needle from full towards empty. This frugal use of fuel does not come at the expense of performance. The car cruised effortlessly at 100 kph (62 mph) on country roads and 120 kph (74 mpg) on motorways. It also had plenty of power in reserve for overtaking, even on

motorways. This smooth, silent and relaxed performance, is also greatly assisted by the smooth and positive gearchange.

Today's roads, both here at home in Ireland and in England and Scotland, are in a poor condition, with numerous potholes, both large and small, all over the place. While the suspension gives a smooth and comfortable ride, with good roadholding, it cannot be expected to smooth out all these numerous surface irregularities. Have local authorities forgotten, that road tax was introduced to give them the money to build and maintain roads? Whatever about building them, MAINTENANCE seems to be something they have decided to completely abandon. They seem to ignore the fact that badly maintained roads damage vehicles’ tyres, steering and suspensions thus causing

4 MotorMarket

accidents! Properly maintained roads are SAFER roads!

The weather was particularly cold in Gateshead. On the morning these pictures were taken, it was minus four and a half degrees centigrade. It took several minutes for the car to demist the windscreen and a lot longer to produce enough heat to demist the driver’s door window. However, once the windscreen was demisted, it was possible to drive off and the air conditioning produced enough heat to make the interior comfortably warm and relaxing. Even after ten or so miles, there was still a layer of frost on the bonnet and the roof. Whatever about the roof, it indicates how insulating the sound absorbing blanket on the underside of the bonnet is. contd. on page 6

Overall I was impressed with this latest Focus and especially the version with the 1.6 TDCi diesel engine. My main difficulty would be to decide which body style to go for.

contd. from page 4

When travelling long distances, it is important to have comfortable seats and a comfortable driving position.

The Focus certainly provides both. The steering wheel adjusts for both reach and height and requires a sports orientated 2.5 turns from lock to lock. The two front seats

adjust for reach, height and backrest angle. The rear bench seat is similarly comfortable, especially for the occupants of the two outer positions. I was surprised to find that the centre position was also relatively comfortable, with a softish cushion and adequate headroom. ISOfix fittings, for child safety seats, are

provided in the two outer positions.

The rear seats are divided 60/40 to facilitate the carrying of both passengers and awkward items of luggage.

The seat cushion may be raised in sections and placed in a horizontal position behind the front seat. The backrest then drops down into the position so vacated, to provide a level extension to the luggage floor. The backrest will also drop neatly onto the cushion, if you do not need a completely level extension.

Normal luggage space is 0.316 cubic metres. This can be expanded to a maximum of 1.101 cubic metres with both seat backs folded down. In addition there is a black polystyrene tray under the luggage floor, that can carry small items. If that is insufficient for your needs, you can carry up to 75 kg in a suitable container on the roof.

Where towing is a requirement, the Focus can manage braked trailers/caravans of up to 2000 kg, or unbraked trailers of up to 665 kg. The car had a Spacesaver spare wheel, which is better than nothing, but is not really suitable for towing.

The instruments and driving controls are mainly

laid out for comfort and ease of use whilst driving. The main instrument display contains four analogue instruments and a small, rectangular display panel. The large analogue dial on the left is the tachometer. It has a black background, white lettering and a blue needle. From 4,500 rpm to 6,000 rpm the markings are in red. Matching it on the right is the speedometer. It is black with white lettering and a blue needle. The black background also has several warning lights which illuminate in red.

Between them are two small analogue dials, with the fuel level gauge on the left and the engine temperature gauge on the right. Above them the digital panel shows a variety of different information, including the outside air temperature, trip distance, total distance and other selectable information.

The horizontal arms of the steering wheel have switches for the mobile telephone and audio installations on the left and on the right another to select the information required for the digital information panels. There is a digital information panel at the top of the centre console.

When not used for audio related information, it shows the time and date. Audio related switches and controls are in the large panel below.

Below this are three round selectors for the air conditioning, controlling the fan speed, temperature and distribution. Below these are further buttons for the windscreen demisting, rear window demisting and other associated functions. The armrest between the two front seats contains a storage box and is the location for the cigarette lighter. Just ahead of it, behind the gearlever and handbrake are two cupholders, with a small open,

Overall I was impressed with this latest Focus and especially the version with the 1.6 TDCi diesel engine. My main difficulty would be to decide which body style to go for. Personally I prefer estate

cars, but I must admit to being impressed with both the saloon, which I thought looked very like a Mondeo, and this hatchback, which looked like a slightly bigger Fiesta. At the end of the day, it would probably all boil down to which I could afford.

Ĺ KODA SUPERB here is only one way to describe this car, SUPERB! It had a longish bonnet, with a slightly sloping grille, giving it that imposing executive saloon look, especially as it was painted in a gloss black, which all helped to make the shiny chrome surround to the grille stand out superbly. The chrome trim around the side windows and the spoked alloy wheels, all helped to give the car a very stately appearance. Inside it was magnificently upholstered in a cream leather to the very highest standards. Then to finally set it all off, there was beautiful, polished wood trim on the doors and the facia.

T ROAD TEST

By KEVIN FENIX www.twincam.ie

Power is provided by a two litre, four cylinder, direct injection, turbocharged diesel engine, driving a six speed DSG automatic/manual gearbox. In normal operating conditions, power is distributed 96% to the front wheels and 4% to the rear wheels. However, when conditions demand this is adjusted automatically to 10% to the front wheels and 90% to the rear wheels. Where the conditions are such that there is poor grip on all four wheels, torque distribution is divided equally between all four wheels. Producing 103 kW @ 4,200 rpm and 320 Nm between 1,750 and

2,500 rpm, the engine can provide a top speed of 204 kph (126 mph) with a 0-100 kph acceleration time of 10.7 seconds. That should be satisfactory for the vast majority of today’s drivers. This silky smooth performance does not come at the expense of fuel consumption. By EU testing standards, the car has an Urban cycle consumption of 36 mpg (7.8 lt/100 km), stretching to 54 mpg (5.2 lt/100 km) on the Extra urban cycle. This gives a Combined cycle average of 45 mpg (6.2 lt/100 km).

Thanks to the silent and silky smooth flow of

power, to the excellent DSG gearbox, the car is relaxing, completely effortless and very satisfying to drive. I certainly enjoyed every moment behind the wheel.

The leather covered steering wheel had a smooth and luxurious feel. It was geared to give a comfort orientated three turns from lock to lock and was reach and height adjustable. It had additional controls on its two horizontal arms for the audio system (left) and telephone facilities (right). The main instrument cluster contained two large round, analogue dials, with black contd. on page 16

backgrounds, white lettering and red highlights. The tachometer was on the left and its markings were in red from 5,000 rpm to 6,000 rpm.

In its lower section it also housed the engine temperature gauge. The matching instrument on the right was the speedometer. In its lower section it housed the fuel level gauge. Apart from a small section on the fuel level gauge, towards the empty mark, which was in red, all the markings on the speedometer and fuel level indicator were in white. The background of the speedometer also housed various warning lights, which illuminated in red or green as appropriate.

Between the two large analogue instruments, there was a clear digital information panel, that was capable of indicating a vast amount of additional, useful information, as required. The top section of this panel, indicated the time in large, easy to see figures.

In its lower section it indicated the overall mileage and the trip mileage, as well as the outside air temperature.

The audio associated equipment was controlled from a panel at the top of the centre console. This included radio/CD, satellite navigation and other associated functions. It included a large rectangular information screen. Located below this unit was the dual range climate control. Included in the climate control, were the two heated front seats amongst all the other functions.

Located around the base of the gear selector, were controls for the parallel parking unit, parking sensors, plus sport mode selector position and the location for the manual gear selection.

The driver’s door had the controls for the four electric windows and the exterior rear view mirrors. Both front doors also had buttons for the central locking/unlocking. The two front seats were adjustable for reach, height, backrest angle and lumbar support. In addition the driver’s seat was provided with three memory settings.

Rear seat leg and kneeroom was very generous.

The centre console did intrude a bit in the centre, but there was still sufficient foot and kneeroom for an adult passenger sitting in the centre

of the rear seat. As in most cars the centre section, both cushion and backrest was firmer than the two places on either side. A passenger of average height sitting there, would also find his/her head close to the rear seating roof lights. Passengers on either side by contrast had soft, comfortable, well shaped seats, with plenty of leg and headroom. The two outer seat passengers also had the advantage of selectable seat warming, just like the two front seat occupants. The selector switches, offering three degrees of heating, were located in the extension to the central console. This rear extension also provided a digital clock for the convenience of rear seat passengers. The two outer seating places were provided

with ISOfix fittings for child safety seats. Divided 60/40 in the seat backrest, the rear seat had a folding centre armrest that included a covered storage space and two fold away cupholders. In the rear passenger door, there was a storage space in the door armrest that contained a folding umbrella. Is there anything Skoda’s engineers have not thought of for this SUPERB car ?

This Superb is a really fine executive car, almost bordering on luxury limousine status. When all the seating is required for passengers, it still offers 0.565 cubic metres of luggage space. If only the two front seats are needed, then the luggage capacity can be expanded to an extremely spacious 1.670 cubic metres of space. Being split 60/40 the rear seat can also be folded in sections to provide both seating space and room for long or awkward items of luggage.

The Superb has another unique advantage, in that it is both a saloon and a hatchback. You make the selection you want at any particular time and it can be changed every time use use it, if that is your preference. It is all done by a simple press of a pad located in the lower edge of the boot lid.

If your lifestyle is such that you need to tow a trailer or caravan, the Superb 4x4 can accommodate braked trailers/caravans up to 2000 kg in weight, or unbraked trailers of up to 750 kg. If you need to carry loads in a suitable container on the roof, it can manage up to 100 kg.

That 100 kg includes the

There is only one way to describe this car, SUPERB!

weight of the container and the necessary roof bars and mountings. A full size spare wheel is provided on a 16” pressed steel rim, although

the road wheels are on 17” alloy rims. The wheel provided is perfectly suitable for all operating conditions, including towing.
