11 May 2018

Someone leaked it at the Assembly stage of car

One of the most talked about automotive news of recent weeks was the debut of the the armored limousine the national development at the inauguration of the President. This is the first model from the project "Cortege", besides the largest and most expensive. However, on this day you have to collect the crumbs. Yes, representatives of FGUP US in charge of the development platform for the EMP ("a single Modular Platform") and the presidential limousine, told some information about the technical stuffing. But still not even published photos of the salon! Only now in possession of the online edition of RCI turned out to be spy shots of the interior of the sedan "Aurus the Senate."

"The Senate" is not the most armored limousine that took part in the inauguration. Moreover, it is not even the most senior civilian versions of the cars built on the platform of EMP (they will be "Senate-limo"). "Senate" — a four-door car with a length of 5.62 meters. It is expected that this sedan will move the officials of various stripes, while he goes and in free sale.

The source of the photo notes that it is not new: the picture was taken more than a year ago. However, it is published for the first time. The photo shows the interior of the sedan during Assembly: some parts are not yet installed in its place. However, this does not prevent to make a first impression.

Visual interior "of the Senate" in the spirit of modern luxury vehicles (in particular, Rolls-Royce). The interior can be compared to the image of the computer model, which edition of "auto review" published in the beginning of the year. Obviously the difference in color of the materials used and the individual parts (for example, a completely different drive), but the overall design and architecture is one.

It is expected that, "Senate", as well as other cars on the platform of the EMP will be made available in different finish options. Buyers can choose the color and texture of wood. The salon will be generously applied leather and Alcantara.

It is noted that the interior is completely deprived of touch interfaces (here, too, a parallel can be drawn with Rolls-Royce). Moreover, the multimedia system cannot be linked with a smartphone via Bluetooth. This is done for reasons of safety: to prevent attackers to access confidential information of the owner of a luxury sedan.

While the rest of the salon made completely in the spirit of the time. For example, there is applied a digital dashboard, which became widely disseminated only in recent times.

Orders for sedans and limousines "Aurus" will be in September. The first deliveries are scheduled for the first quarter of 2019. Later in the sale of SUVs and minivans that are built on the same platform.
