South Korea strikes again: Now seeks to ban the sale of 10 models of BMW, Nissan and Porsche

As some will remember, a few months ago South Korea banned the sale of 32 models made by the Volkswagen group after the Dieselgate scandal, including also Audi and Bentley models, but now the thing goes further and the ban could affect To other manufacturers such as BMW, Porsche and Nissan.

While it is true, the list is reduced, with only 10 models, as AutoNews points out, but we are talking about very important models that could be a strong shock to the automobile industry in the far east.

It seems that everything points to irregularities in the certification of imported vehicles, among which are none other than the BMW X5 M, the Porsche Macan S, the Nissan Qashqai or the Infiniti Q50, among others. Nissan and Porsche, for their part, have admitted the existence of such "errors" in certification documents and have voluntarily suspended sales, but nevertheless BMW remains in its thirteen and continues to sell the powerful SUV while no one prevents it .

It will be next month when the South Korean government takes a decision on the matter after a hearing, but in addition to the sales ban the three manufacturers could also face a joint fine of 5.6 million dollars, about 5.26 million euros change. As Hong Dong-kon, a representative of the Ministry of Environment, points out, "we will give manufacturers until the middle of next month to clarify their positions. Afterwards, the government will decide whether to revoke the certifications, prohibit the sale of their cars and ask prosecutors to investigate further the case. "

The new Ford Fiesta is presented in Vignale configuration with maximum luxury finishes and a very careful presentation, in the top of the "conventional" Titanium range with interesting details, the ST-Line sports mood option and a new "Active" version of appearance Crossover.

Aesthetically the design does not seem revolutionary but considering how well the current is sold, having evolved the existing one is a success. Some features are softened to achieve a cleaner and more attractive set, leaving the decorative elements that play an important role in the face finishing approach.

The interior has worked to get a better visual impression, especially now that the Ka + should cover the hollow of the simpler versions and the Fiesta goes up a step in price. According to model can have a screen up to eight inches, something unusual in the segment.

The available equipment will include a huge panoramic sliding sunroof, keyless entry system, Ford Power button start, parking assistant, traffic signal reader, heated seats and steering wheel, rain sensor, rear camera, pre-crash warning, Adaptive cruise control, pedestrian detector, blind spot alert, headlights with LED technology ...

Among the new features are the latest evolution of the 1.0 Ecoboost engine that opens the cylinder disconnection system (one in this case), and can operate in some low load situations with only two. This allows you to reduce your adjusted consumption even further.

Also some diesel engines will be offered and Ford ensures that the Fiesta will have the most powerful block in its segment, not clarifying if among the general rivals only (do not forget that the MINI Cooper SD has 170 hp).

For now it seems that Ford does not want to be content and is extracting the information very slowly so we can not comment much more. It is probable that a few hours we can extend all the details with new images, detail of the engines and the equipment.

Dossier, these are the best-selling small SUVs in Spain during October

Small crossovers are becoming more numerous and are gaining great popularity both in Spain and in the rest of European markets. So that you can see how registrations go in our country, today we leave the figures for last October.

In addition to the B-segment crossovers, we wanted to add some small players like the Panda 4 × 4 and Cross, and the conventional variants of conventional passenger cars such as Stepway, Active and Rocks, so you can also get an idea of ​​their operation in the Spanish market.

There is no doubt that the Renault Captur is a success since its launch. Manufactured in Spain, it has been leading the segment for many months thanks to an interesting price-performance ratio. The Peugeot 2008 has also performed very well, stealing many sales to its older brother the 308.

The Opel Mokka is another product of success and in this analysis we have separated the figures of the "veterans" and Mokka X to be clear the acceptance of the newcomer. It is also not usual to see separate figures from the Paceman and Countryman of MINI, although it is fair to say that the first one has no great relevance in these last months of life.

In Suzuki they have an offer composed by the small Jimny and Vitara, both of relative commercial success. Mazda on the other hand is getting very good results with the CX-3, something that can not say Ford with the EcoSport and that they have made changes to adapt it to the local tastes.

In 2017 will add new members that will surely further encourage this particular niche market. Among the most important products are the SEAT Arona, the successor to the Citroën C3 Picasso, the Opel Crossland X and the small Suzuki Ignis among others.
