1994 in motoring includes developments in the automotive industry that occurred throughout the year 1994 by various automobile manufacturers, grouped by country. The automotive industry designs, develops, manufactures, markets, and sells motor vehicles. ==United Kingdom== British Aerospace sold the Rover Group to BMW, with three of Rover's oldest nameplates retired by the end of the year. The Maestro and Montego ranges ceased production, while the Metro no longer existed in name but the car itself was redesigned and sold as the Rover 100 series. This included a new 1.5 diesel unit on offer, while the 1.1 and 1.4 petrol engines were carried over from the Metro. Rover's next generation 400 Series – which went on sale in 1995 – was a clone of the upcoming Honda Civic, while the new 200 Series was the first in-house Rover design since the 1984 Montego. Ford ceased production of the Granada after 10 years to make way for the new Scorpio. Power comes from a 2.0 16-valve unit, as well as 2.3 16-valve and 2.9 V6 units. Vauxhall replaced the Carlton with the new Omega – the latest model to adopt a continental Opel nameplate. Like its predecessor, the Omega was a large rear-wheel drive range of saloon cars and estate cars. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「1994 in motoring」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
