The 2017 Subaru Impreza has taken the Japanese Car Of The Year Award.

• The Subaru Impreza polled strongly to pull away from the Toyota Prius to win the 2017 Car of the Year Japan award. 

At an award ceremony held inside the Tokyo International Exchange Center on Tokyo Bay, the Subaru Impreza polled 420 votes to triumph over the Toyota Prius by 49 votes and win the 2017 Car of the Year Japan (COTY). 

In a close battle for third, the Audi A4 polled 149 votes and captured the Import Car of the Year trophy, just 4 votes ahead of the strong finishing Volvo XC90.

This win gives Subaru only its second ever COTY trophy and its first in 13 years. In accepting the award, Impreza chief engineer Kazuhiro Abe said, “When we started developing the Impreza over 4 years ago, never did I imagine I’d be standing here today with such a prestigious award. 

This must be what it feels like to win an Olympic gold. The Impreza’s new global platform has great meaning for the company moving forward and will underpin nearly all of our cars over the next decade. 

On behalf of all of my R&D team, I’d like to thank the jurors for their support of this car.”

Japan’s COTY organisation is made up of 59 jurors who each start with 25 votes and must give their most highly rated vehicle 10 votes. Their remaining 15 votes are then spread across their next best 4 cars. 

Each juror must vote for 5 cars out of the final Top 10.

After 20 jurors’ votes had been read out, the difference between the Impreza and Prius was only 9 votes, 138 to 129 votes respectively. So a close finished was expected. 

However, when the 40th juror’s votes were revealed, the Impreza’s lead had jumped to 27 votes. And in the end, the Subaru breezed it in to pick up an easy victory with 420 votes to the Prius’ 371.

The Nissan Serena captured the Innovation Award for its Propilot driver-assist, hands-free sliding door technology and clever seat arrangement, while the Daihatsu Move Canbus won the Small Mobility award for its packaging. 

Given high marks for its performance and handling, the BMW M2 triumphed in the Emotional Award, while the Honda NSX picked up the Car of the Year Japan steering committee’s Special Award for its revolutionary V6 twin-turbo hybrid powertrain.

Jaguar believes in the XE so much they will let you compare it the competition at Jag dealers this weekend.

• Jaguar’s XE sports saloon is pitted against its rivals across UK showrooms in the first weekend of September
• Car buyers invited to test up to three competitor vehicles at Jaguar UK showrooms and decide for themselves if the XE beats its rivals onto their driveway
• Jaguar becomes the first manufacturer in the UK to offer such a competitive comparison through its showrooms
• The multi-award winning Jaguar XE is the current Auto Express Compact Executive Car of the Year and was named ‘a Game Changer’ at the 2016 Autocar Awards

Jaguar UK makes a bold statement this summer with an open invitation for car buyers to test the multi-award-winning XE against its rivals in the market through group tests arranged at UK showrooms.

More than 250 examples of the three main rivals to the Jaguar XE have been brought in for the first weekend of September and placed at key Jaguar retailers across the UK for the magazine-style group tests to take place.

Jaguar Land Rover UK managing director Jeremy Hicks said:

“Our offer is simple: if you are interested in test driving a Jaguar XE, but are uncertain about how it will compare against its key rivals, then contact your local Jaguar retailer and arrange your own personal group test.  It’s a bold move, never done before by a manufacturer in the UK, but the Jaguar XE speaks for itself. It is the best looking car in its class, appealing to the heart but with class-leading running costs that add up to a shrewd financial purchase.”

“It’s a class leader across the key measures of efficiency, performance and cost of ownership and absolutely holds its own in the most hotly contested sector of the market against the most established players in the world. We know it, the critics know it, now it’s time for car buyers across the UK to know it – and crucially, experience it – for themselves.”

The multiple Executive Car of the Year winner has played a crucial role in the business’s record-breaking sales in 2016, with almost 30,000 XEs making their way onto global driveways so far this year. The Autocar 2016 ‘Game Changer’ is fast approaching its 50^th award, and was shortlisted for the coveted European Car of the Year award.

Already hailed as the best drivers’ car in its class, the updates to the XE for the 2017 model year have enhanced this further. It now comes with key specification additions; including an all-wheel drive (AWD) system, which is available to order on the 2.0-litre Ingenium 180PS diesel variant.

The AWD system enhances vehicle dynamics and improves traction, while Adaptive Surface Response (AdSR) optimises the AWD system by changing the powertrain and Dynamic Stability Control system mapping according to the conditions.

Jaguar's advanced Lightweight Aluminium Architecture, and high-tech Ingenium engines, make the XE the most efficient non-hybrid car in its class with fuel economy of up to 75mpg and CO2 emissions as low as 99g/km. As well as its business-friendly emissions the XE also boasts the highest three-year/60,000-mile residual value* in the segment.

The 2017 model year XE also comes with a state-of-the-art InControl Touch Pro infotainment system with a 10.2-inch tablet-style touchscreen that offers intuitive operation, super-fast response times and intelligent navigation. The system offers a Wi-Fi hotspot for up to eight devices, and is compatible with an Apple Watch app, that offers remote functions including fuel level check, lock and unlock, and even remote engine starts.

USA - 2017 Audi A4 receives 2016 Top Safety Pick+ rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

• 2017 Audi A4 receives 2016 Top Safety Pick+ rating from IIHS
• Audi pre sense city with automatic emergency braking earned the A4 a “superior” rating for front crash prevention
• The A4 joins the 2017 Q7, which was also awarded a 2016 Top Safety Pick+ rating earlier this year

The all-new 2017 Audi A4 has been named an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety 2016 Top Safety Pick+, earning “good” ratings in all five IIHS crashworthiness evaluations and a “superior” rating for front crash prevention. Top Safety Pick+ is the highest 2016 rating available from IIHS.

"We are very proud to have the IIHS recognize the A4 with this prestigious rating," said Scott Keogh, President of Audi of America. 

"More and more customers are seeking driver assistance systems when making their vehicle purchase decision, and the A4 demonstrates some of the best technologies available today. 

Having both the Q7 and now the A4 be awarded Top Safety Pick+ ratings further demonstrates our commitment to the highest levels of safety and technology in our vehicles.”

The standard Audi pre sense city with automatic emergency braking earned the 2017 A4 a “superior” rating for front crash prevention. 

The system helps detect moving and stationary vehicles as well as pedestrians, at speeds of up to 52 mph and can initiate braking when a potential collision is detected.

The Audi brand’s focus on elevating standards for automotive engineering addresses evolving criteria for consumer crash tests as designated by the IIHS.

As the bestselling model in Audi history, the 2017 A4 sets a new benchmark for the luxury sedan segment. With class-leading horsepower, the 2017 A4 features a 2.0-liter TFSI® engine that generates 252 hp and 273 lb-ft of torque. 

The powertrain and chassis have been completely redeveloped, allowing for a sportier driving experience and more comfortable ride, and the new front five-link suspension allows for greater steering precision and handling.

Equipped with a new portfolio of available driver assistance systems, such as adaptive cruise control with stop & go and traffic jam assist, the A4 can help drivers navigate the road and traffic while making their driving experience more enjoyable. 

The A4 also features a suite of advanced infotainment functions including the available Audi virtual cockpit and for the first time, a full-color head-up display. Both bring relevant driving information directly front and center for the driver.

IIHS Top Safety Pick Ratings

IIHS tests evaluate two aspects of safety: crashworthiness, how well a vehicle protects its occupants in a crash, and crash avoidance and mitigation, technology that can prevent a crash or lessen its severity.

To determine crashworthiness, IIHS rates vehicles good, acceptable, marginal or poor, based on performance in five tests: moderate overlap front, small overlap front, side, roof strength and head restraints. In the area of crash avoidance and mitigation, IIHS assigns vehicles with available front crash prevention systems ratings of basic, advanced or superior, based on the type of system and performance in track tests.

Pricing and Specification announced for the first batch of AUDI A4 Saloon and Avant models due into the UK.

Pricing and specification finalised as Audi UK confirms that order books will open for latest Audi compact executive on September 10  

• New A4 Saloon and Avant models will be available to order in UK from September 10 priced from £25,900 OTR
• Up to 120kg lighter, up to 21 per cent more fuel efficient, lowest-in-class 0.23 drag coefficient (Saloon)
• Wide four and six-cylinder engine range with outputs from 150PS to 272PS
• Line-up includes new 2.0 TFSI with revolutionary combustion system and 2.0 TDI ultra efficiency champion with 99g/km output in SE and Sport models
• All-new platform and redeveloped six-speed manual, seven-speed S tronic and eight-speed tiptronic transmissions
• Standard equipment highlights include 17-inch alloy wheels, Xenon headlights with LED DRLs, Audi smartphone interface, Audi drive select, three-zone climate control and 7-inch colour MMI monitor
• Technology options include the Audi virtual cockpit, Matrix LED headlights and numerous new driver assistance systems

In just a few days the status quo in the premium compact executive sector will again be potentially turned on its head by a completely new Audi A4. 

From September 10 the many attributes which have already made the A4 an international sales success will be available in strikingly amplified form, from the already lauded quality of finish to the sophisticated in-car technology, and from the slick and frugal engines to the polished transmissions and highly effective driver assistance systems. 

One change which will be distinctly less dramatic will be the range pricing, which despite major equipment gains will start from £25,900 OTR.

Due with their first UK customers in November, the 54 Saloon and Avant variants making up the launch range will be available with a choice of seven TFSI and TDI engines. Depending on the preferred engine, customers will have a choice of up to three specification levels, including a new Sport option which will sit between the entry SE and top S line rungs that will be familiar to existing A4 drivers.

Each specification option will offer plenty of the technological sophistication for which the all-new A4 is likely to become renowned, combined with premium features that will greatly enhance everyday use. 

Examples of these in SE models include xenon headlamps with LED daytime running lamps, three-zone climate control, cruise control, rear parking sensors and the Audi smartphone interface, which supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto platforms and displays smartphone contact and information such as navigation mapping on the A4’s seven-inch colour MMI screen.

Best-in-class luggage space

In Avant versions of the SE model, powered tailgate operation and an electrically retracting luggage cover are also standard, facilitating access to a the most accommodating load bay in the premium compact executive estate class, with a capacity of 505 litres with the standard split/folding seats in place or a seats-down maximum of 1,510 litres.

Sport models have their own distinct exterior look complemented by exclusive 5-spoke alloy wheels with the same 17-inch diameter as the SE. Inside, they gain MMI Navigation, plus an automatic three-month subscription to the many internet-based services and in-car internet browsing options offered by Audi connect. Sports seats, a sports steering wheel and the 180-watt Audi sound system are also among the additional benefits.

Designed as usual with the most driving-focused owners in mind, the top S line specification includes an upgrade to a larger 18-inch S line alloy wheel, and visual enhancements courtesy of bespoke S line exterior styling. It also adds LED headlights incorporating LED daytime running lights and LED rear lights with dynamic rear indicators with a progressive sweeping action in the intended turn direction. 

Sports seats upholstered in a combination of cloth and leather help to set the tone inside, and S line sports suspension does the same for the driving experience – if preferred it can be replaced at no cost by the most comfort-oriented standard suspension.

Given that it creates less slipstream than its competitors with a lowest-in-class drag coefficient of 0.23 (Avant 0.26), and is lighter than its predecessor by as much as 120kg, it should come as no surprise that the all-new A4 is appreciably more refined and up to 21 per cent more fuel efficient than before. As a result, every model in the latest range registers the best performance in its specific competitive basket in the official combined consumption test.

Twelve ultra variants

Petrol engine capacities now range from 1.4 litres to 2.0 litres, and TDI displacements from 2.0-litres to 3.0 litres, with outputs starting from 150PS and rising to 272PS. 

All engines combine high efficiency with outstanding responsiveness and refinement, but particularly notable exponents of these attributes are the two versions of the 2.0-litre TDI engine which in combination with front-wheel-drive are given the ‘ultra’ designation that signifies the best economy returns in the Audi range. Between them these two units power an impressive total of twelve A4 ultra models.

For business users the 2.0 TDI ultra with 150PS and six-speed manual transmission will be a major draw. It delivers a combined consumption figure of 74.3mpg with CO₂ output of just 99g/km, and equally importantly does so with fewer equipment restrictions than the majority of premium sector competitors – its frugality can be enjoyed in conjunction with both SE and Sport specification incorporating 17-inch alloy wheel designs. The 2.0 TDI ultra with 190PS and manual transmission runs its namesake remarkably close, returning up to 72.4mpg with 102g/km.

The particularly cultured V6 TDI engines also show impressive restraint. The 218PS version with seven-speed S tronic transmission registers a 109g/km output when combined with Sport specification and front-wheel-drive, while the more potent 272PS equivalent more than makes the grade with a 134g/km CO₂ value.

Also deserving of a special mention is the 2.0 TFSI petrol engine with 190PS. It slashes CO₂ output to as little as 116g/km through the use of a completely new combustion process developed using the familiar Miller cycle as its basis, and will be notable for its ability to deliver optimal response across the entire engine speed range.

To fully exploit the economy potential of this absolutely up-to-the minute engine technology, the powertrain and chassis of the new Audi A4 and A4 Avant have also been completely redeveloped. 

The six-speed manual transmission, the seven-speed S tronic twin-clutch (now also available for front-wheel drive) and the eight-speed tiptronic have been reworked, and in the process the automatic transmissions have incorporated a fuel-saving freewheeling function.

Completely new platform

The completely new platform with its sophisticated five-link fully independent front and rear configuration and newly designed electromechanical steering also ensures that ride and handling make a great leap forward. The suspension and steering filter out disturbances significantly more effectively, but at the same time communicate important information such as increases in lateral forces and tracking more clearly.

Trademark Audi quattro all-wheel-drive is available in conjunction with the 2.0 TFSI 252PS and 2.0 TDI 190PS four-cylinder units and both 3.0 TDI engines. 

The purely mechanical system with its self-locking centre differential designed as a planetary gear train transfers 60 per cent of the engine’s torque to the rear axle and 40 per cent to the front. Depending on the situation, it can direct up to 70 per cent to the front and up to 85 per cent to the rear.

An additional active rear differential capable of apportioning torque between the individual rear wheels will also be available later in 2015 for some quattro-equipped models, and for most versions it will also be possible to opt for adjustable dampers and a dynamic steering system which varies its ratio according to speed and steering angle.

Where these options are fitted, their operating characteristics will be configurable via the Audi drive select adaptive dynamics system, which is a standard feature across the range. Its Comfort, Auto, Dynamic, Efficiency and Individual modes will also have a bearing on the response of the throttle, the shift points of the automatic transmissions if specified and the weighting of the steering.  

The super-refined driving behaviour of the all-new A4 is matched by the polish of its ‘touchpoints’ – the beautifully wrought interior with its exceptionally precise and fluid switchgear and slickly integrated technology tangibly moves the game on from the outgoing car, which was renowned in its own right for its fit and finish. 

All-digital Audi virtual cockpit

Owners who want to project their car even further into the future can opt to replace the analogue dials in the binnacle with the remarkable all-digital Audi virtual cockpit launched to critical acclaim in the TT and R8 sports cars and now also available for the Q7 SUV. 

They can also replace the standard xenon or LED headlamps with Matrix LED units capable of establishing and tracking multiple road users and illuminating the appropriate corridors of lights either side of them to maintain maximum visibility without dazzling other drivers.

Highlights of the options list will also include a 19-speaker, 755-watt Bang & Olufsen audio system with 3D sound, Audi Entertainment mobile incorporating two detachable touch-screen tablet computers built into the rear seats, the Audi phone box bringing two separate Bluetooth connections and wireless smartphone charging* and MMI Navigation plus with a larger 8.3-inch monitor complemented by the MMI Touch fingertip-responsive touchpad built into the rotary controller.

In addition, numerous state-of-the-art driver assistance systems can be added to make the all-new A4 driving experience even safer, even more efficient and even more effortless. 

From an economy perspective, the predictive efficiency assistant helps drivers to reduce fuel consumption by up to 10 per cent by using navigation route data to alert the driver to situations in which it would make sense to reduce speed, such as before bends, towns or speed limit signs that are not yet visible. 

The system can adapt the preselected speed to the route and the speed limits and also take over predictive control of the free-wheeling function of the automatic transmissions.

For convenience, the Stop&Go adaptive cruise control system includes a traffic-jam assist function which eases driving in crawling traffic by assuming control of the acceleration, steering and braking, taking into account a large number of parameters such as road markings and the traffic ahead.

Other newly introduced features with a more safety-focused orientation include rear traffic crossing, exit warning and turn assist.  

Rear traffic crossing aids the driver when reversing by detecting vehicles crossing from behind and initiating an acoustic warning and emergency braking if required; exit warning monitors the rear and side of the car and warns occupants before they open the doors that vehicles or cyclists are approaching from behind; turn assist helps with right turns by monitoring oncoming traffic as soon as the driver switches on the indicator, and can bring the car to a complete halt if a manoeuvre is started accidentally.

Countdown to the all-new Audi A4  – The all-new Audi A4 Saloon and Avant will become available to order in the UK on September 10 priced from £25,900 OTR. The SE, Sport and S line variants will each offer an impressive specification, which will be complemented by exceptional quality, refinement, efficiency and driving dynamics.
