Every year, technology develops so rapidly that people simply do not have time to adapt to it. For example, if just a few centuries ago it took decades to implement one colossal decision, now the pace has accelerated significantly. The main reason for this is the revolutionary decisions of the best scientists, entrepreneurs, businessmen, and designers who went against the grain. The bravest figures in the automotive industry were not afraid to experiment and create their own history. And they succeeded because even when some inventions seemed hopeless, enthusiasts took serious risks.
Today, there are at least a dozen iconic cars that have made people wonder and rethink their previous achievements. Some car drivers argue that in our time there have been no significant breakthroughs in the last 20-30 years. Here are the top 3 cars produced since 2000, which radically changed the development of the auto industry.
The BMW X6 at one time managed to outshine many competitors. BMW has been around for more than a century, so the brand has many innovative solutions. Specialists from Bavaria have surprised the public many times with new solutions and the development of a new segment. It’s interesting that the technique works because everyone is buying into BMW’s marketing hooks, buying the brand’s cars one after another.
Some believe that the creation of the BMW X5 became a cult for the company. The X5 E70 is the second generation of a full-size crossover that provides the owner with everything he needs. The car is comfortable, large-sized, and status. The BMW X6 is a stripped-down and cheaper version of the X5. The BMW advertising department did everything to make people rush to buy the new product. Especially those who don't like full-size SUVs or want to save some money.
Thus, after a successful start, clones of the BMW X6 only from other brands began to appear on the automobile market. Everyone without exception began to imitate the Bavarian company: premium automakers, lower-class manufacturers, and even Chinese factories. Experts predict the collapse of the compact crossover empire. However, sales suggest otherwise. Drivers are still crazy about this subclass of cars, SUV leases and purchases are quite high.
The Nissan Juke mini-crossover went on sale in 2010. Its merit in the automobile market is a revolution in the field of car design and style. There are still fierce debates among car drivers about whether the SUV is worthy of attention or whether something more interesting could have been invented.
The appearance of the car is based on the Nissan Qazana concept, which was presented at the Geneva International Motor Show in March 2009. After this forum, thousands of drivers called the show car one of the ugliest in the world. While some buyers considered the Juke unworthy of attention, others fell in love with the mini-crossover concept. The Japanese car captivates with its comfortable interior, excellent road performance, and trouble-free operation.
The appearance of the SUV from Nissan turned out to be so progressive that it still looks normal on the road. For 14 years now, the model has been in stable demand, sells in good quantities even in the old design, and deserves the boundless love of drivers. The second generation of the model was released exactly a year ago, but this did not affect the number of sales of older models so much. Yes, the new product looks more relevant and appeals to a wider audience. But many still prefer the older version.
What is the main secret of Nissan Juke's success:
The electric car of the American brand Tesla – Model S rightfully deserves the title of a legendary car of our time. Few people believed in the success of “green” technologies; industrialists considered the development of batteries too expensive and unprofitable. Indeed, who wants to spend billions of dollars to organize the production and recycling of electric batteries? The risk was too great. World-famous brands and concerns had no idea how Tesla, with very little experience in assembling a roadster, could set up a conveyor belt for the production of electric cars.
However, everything can be done if you want. Now Tesla is among the top most influential and richest automobile manufacturers. Despite the high cost, vehicles of the American brand sell in incredible quantities. The brand made a revolution thanks to the successful launch of the Tesla Model S. Today, in all respects, the Tesla automaker is ahead of General Motors, Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft, and Toyota.
Moreover, electric cars have become so popular that they are given separate headings and sections on the websites of specialized automotive publications. As you know, the government of many countries plans to ban or seriously limit the production of internal combustion engine models by 2030-2040. The priority is now “green” technologies that do not harm the environment and do not emit exhaust gases. To speed up the implementation of the plan, cars with traditional diesel or gasoline engines will be subject to additional taxes. Drivers will have to switch to electric cars or hybrids.
Every year, other concerns release their competitive products, but no one has yet managed to surpass Tesla. Competitive electric cars either have exorbitant prices or have irrelevant and ill-conceived interior design. With the appearance of an electric car, everything is normal, but competitors still have to grow and grow before Tesla’s technologies.
Did you know that the Tesla Model S is far from the first green car, but the first to attract public attention? Before the sedan, Elon Musk produced other cars, however, only with this model did he manage to create resonance in the market.
