What does /o/ think of this car?
250d (204CV) comes at 60.000€ with chosen accessories. Worth it? If not, then what should I get? (SUV/SAV, available in Europe, at least 170-180CV)

There is literally no reason to buy that vehicle.

It's like taking the dick waving useless /out/ness of a Land Rover and watering it down even more by taking away the functionality that Land Rovers have outdoors.

G, GL or bust. The old GLK looked like a proper SUV while being small but the new lineup is just a fucking joke.

>>16682434
Evoque is a possibility too but I never drove a Land Rover so I'd have to try it out first.

Stelvio is not bad but seems overpriced if compared with GLC.
>>
>>16682455
A car this big and heavy isn't gonna be "sporty". The marketing department can brag all they want about it being """"AN SUV WITH THE HEART AND SOUL OF A SPORTS CAR"""" but if you want an SUV, don't get something pretending to be a sports car and if you want something sporty, just get a regular C-Class and not some abomination that tries to be both and doesn't quite manage to be either.
>>
what the fuck is this CV your talking about? hp? kw?
>>
>>16682468
"Cheveux", French for horsepower (or literally "horses").
>>
>>16682466
I know but I have a 2007 C class now and performance wise it would be the same (0-100 kmh in 8 secs - 220kmh top)

>>
>>16682478
Alright, I'll break it down for you.
Trying to turn an SUV into a sports car is stupid because:
>SUV has high ride height and even higher center of gravity
>SUV's main selling point is practicality (lots of room)
>sports cars tend to have their CoG as low as possible because this improves handling
>sports cars usually have stiff suspension because this reduces body roll
Now combine the two:
>high CoG, needs even stiffer suspension to reduce bodyroll, which ruins ride quality
>sloped "coupe" roofline ruins rear headroom and trunk space
>the result still handles worse than its sedan or wagon equivalent

If you absolutely must have that new car, just get a C-Class. It'll be equally practical, handle better, and use less fuel to boot.
>>
>>16682478
Just keep the C-class or move up to a used E-class. These crossovers are shit.
>>
>>16682505
But it has 4WD so it should help stability and being bigger it should be far more safe than a normal C class

>>16682526
they are not enough for what you pay, I agree, but I like this form of a gigantic sedan
>>
>>16682539
Safety has more to do with the engineering of the car than its weight or size. Plus a crossover or SUV is actually more likely to roll because of its higher center of gravity.

You can get a C- or E-Class with AWD.
>>
>>16682539
VEHICLE SIZE DOES NOT EQUATE TO SAFETY. Kindly fuck off and never come back to this board.
>>
>>16682290
What is Jaguar F-pace? Look there, for that money you get a fuckin Jag which has really solid handling (even on snow it is fun and predictable)

You're not an enthusiast so why are you here? If you like crossovers you have shit taste.
>>
>>16682590
To seek advice asking to who knows more, wasn't that obvious? I'm trying to learn pros and cons
>>
>>16682290
I was thinking about getting one too.

Lots of ice where I live, the 4x4 on this would help my drive to work. Won't need snow tires in that case as well.

I like the coupe look to it, looks better then the c class
>>
>>16682675
cool, so the 4x4 helps you stopping / slowing down on an icy road?

alright m8
>>
>>16682689
yeah it gives you more control

Snow tires arent needed anymore, most cars have 4x4 now so you dont get stuck

I just want one for ice, why is that bad?
>>
>>16682695
>implying 4x4 with summers is better than fwd with winters
you are wrong sir
>>
>>16682700
lol how even

4 wheels moving is better then 2, stops better as well because 4 wheels are powered

And lots of safety systems and advanced ABS helps it stop great and not spin out on fast icy corners

I'm sorry you cant seem to grasp this concept
>>
>>16682706
also can offroad if I want to as well, the 4x4 is good offroad, better then your fwd trash
>>
>>16682706
are you from somewhere that never snows?

it doesnt matter how many wheels you have moving if the tires cannot grip the surface

ALSO

4wd=/=4w stop

any car with 2wd and winters wil stop shorter than a car with 4wd and summers, as the the tires will grip better

>I'm sorry you cant seem to grasp this concept
>>
>>16682715
whatever


I'll have a sweet looking car and drive right past your shitbox in the winter
>>
>>16682722
which one?
the fwd or the 4wd one?
>>
>>16682700
depends on conditions of surface and type of tires.

My oldschool memebaru with proper awd (manual, dual range gearbox, viscous coupling on center diff, with no esp/traction control) was able to drive trough fresh snow at ease while fwd econobox from Skoda with brand new winter tires and electronic diff-lock simulation (selective braking pretty much) was struggling no matter how we tried to persuade systems to keep going. It just refused to spin wheels and stalled or when systems were disabled it was just spinning one wheel digging into packed snow. I know that running summer tires in snow is madness but I did it as my new winter tires didn't arrive in time... of course braking was really bad but I was surprised how well it handled overall...

So no, fwd with winters is not always better off than proper awd with winter tires - unless your winter tires are semislicks.
>>
>>16682706
You're gonna have a hard time getting those 4 summer tires to grip anything in snow. Look I know a lot of you guys think you know but just stop you're borderline retarded. I'd pick a FWD with decent snow tires over a 4x4 with soft compound summers any day
>>
>>16682728
>So no, fwd with winters is not always better off than proper awd with winter tires - unless your winter tires are semislicks.

my post was 4wd with summers vs fwd with winters
>>
>>16682735
of course my mistake in that last sentance. Just saying that it depends on other factors and you can't just claim it as bulletproof truth.

The only truth is this - every vehicle will get stuck in snow eventually if there is too much of it. Those with good tires and all wheel drive will get stuck further from help.
>>
>>16682731
why

>>16682431

1. it has 241HP

2. it looks better then an ugly wagon, idk what you on about

3. its an SUV so it has WAY more space for cargo and people
>>
>>16682856
You're hilariously deluded if you think a """"sporty 4-door coupe SUV"""" has more room for people and cargo than a regular wagon.

Also 241hp is fuckall when the car weighs 3 fucking tons.

>>16682860
0-60 in 5.9 seconds, thats fast

and it has a HUGE amount of space

OP here, my last message is 17.15, other anons like this car.
Anyway thanks everyone, all interesting thought. I agree with the winter wheels anon, they are far more better through snow and ice.

I have a question, according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-wheel_drive 4wd and fwd are the same thing, right? I didn't get so from the discussion.

Hybrid is for 130k€ so no.
Diesel one doesn't have automatic transmission, only "geartronic". Always drove manual transmission cars so I want an automatic one for a change.
>>
>>16684365
"geartronic" sounds like a marketing term for "automatic" to me.
>>
>>16684377
I looked it up, according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geartronic and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5bee0XgCAQ you still have to shift gears manually.
>>
>>16684399
It says right there it has both automatic and manual modes.
>>
>>16684408
"Manumatic refers to an automatic transmission that allows convenient driver control of gear selection." For what I can get you don't have to use clutch but you still have to shift gears yourself.
>>
>>16684427
"The microprocessor automatically shifts to the next gear if a forgetful user in manual mode red lines the engine. Manual shifting is allowed with the gear stick in the manual mode. The gear stick can also be used just like any other automatic gearbox, where the transmission will shift automatically."
You can put it in automatic mode and it'll do all the shifting for you, or you can put it in manual mode where you decide when it shifts.
>>
>>16684447
>where you decide when it shifts.
this is the critical distinction. its fly by wire shifting. how repugnant.

Own a evoque. It's an awesome vehicle. 22mpg overall. Handles the snow like nothing else I've driven (due to torque vectoring I think). Not much of a back seat or trunk but that works for me.

Drives almost like a car. Keep your eye out for new model "RR Sport coupe". It's slightly larger.

FYI snow tires with FWD outperform all seasons with AWD. There are videos on youtube if you are interested in learning more.

>>16683676
No. Crossover fags are the worst. You're not going offroad so a sedan/wagon is fine.

I do live somewhere where it pretty much doesn't snow, last time it did was 2004 and it wasn't cold enough to stay, it melted. It didn't even turn to ice.
