New Ford Mondeo

After the new Focus, and the next generation of Ford Mondeo will be a global model, aiming to satisfy the diverse needs of a large number of buyers of the German family model.

Ford had declared it from within 2011 and parallel, he had shown it in practice, through the presence of the Frankfurt Evos prototype: The,now it's time to move on to the evolution of the design philosophy of its cars (i.e. of the famous Kinetic Design) and bring us future models with an even more dynamic and premium presence. And true to her schedule, Ford presented us with the new generation of Mondeo (or Fusion in the US) which we will see in Europe at its beginnings 2013 and which will be the first of the new models, which have been influenced by the new design philosophy.

Alongside, the new midsize Ford will be the brand's first global family, since it will be sold the same – only the name changes – in North America, in Asia and Europe.

Emphasized dynamism
More cast lines, new grille with a large grille and long narrow front lights, but also a lower roof that casts furtive glances towards the 4-door coupes, are the main features of the presence of the new Mondeo. In the back section, the raised volume and trapezoidal lights are reminiscent of the corresponding part of the current Mondeo, without, however, depriving anything of the modern quality of the car. Dimensionally, it is too early to know the exact figures of the new midsize Ford, but it is expected not to be significantly different from the current Mondeo, and maybe only the lower ceiling will make a difference. Overall though, the new Mondeo is expected to be even more dynamic and imposing than before.

Even more high-tech interior
The interior of the new Ford Mondeo may not have been officially unveiled, but it is not expected to differ from what the company showed us in the American Fusion. So at first sight, it seems that, we will see a fairly modern result that will convey the high technological background of the car. The design of the dashboard is impressive, which looks set to have two large digital displays on either side of the centrally-mounted speedometer, to display the tachometer, but also the navigation system and trip computer information. Corresponding high-tech elements are incorporated in the central console, with the large info screen dominating the Sony sound system. In the quality field, we again expect high standards for class data, while Ford refers particularly to the part of significantly improved sound insulation.

In the spotlight again are the EcoBoosts
In the new Ford Mondeo the gasoline engines of the EcoBoost series that we met in the renewed existing Mondeo, they will once again be the main protagonists of the range. With turbo and direct injection, these motors of 1,6 and 2,0 liter, they will combine very good performance and performance, with fuel economy and low CO2 emissions. Alongside, in the range there will again be diesel engines in corresponding displacements with those of gasoline engines. However, it is possible that for the first time in its history, the new Mondeo will also receive hybrid versions, so as to offer even more economy and ecology of movement. In everything,what about his American "brother"., the Fusion, there we have already seen its hybrid versions that use a gasoline engine for their movement 2,0 liters and an electric motor. The "simple" hybrid uses the energy stored in the batteries, while the other, under the name "Energi", it can also charge the batteries from an external power supply.

Audi is interested in Ducati;!

Rumors of a very big "wedding" are spreading abroad, that of Audi and Ducati. If they are verified then we are dealing with a very interesting deal.
In the context of business actions planned by the Piech family and on behalf of Audi, it seems that the strong interest of the German brand to even proceed with the acquisition of the control of Ducati's share capital is now added. The famous motorcycle company is doing quite well in terms of sales globally but its owner, the company Performance Motorcycles Spa seems to intend to sell it. In each case, potential "suitors" for Ducati are not only Audi, but both Mercedes-Benz and the Indian brand Mahindra are said to have expressed a discreet interest & Mahindra.

John Plutarch : "This is my truth and my secret"

After the completion of his performances in Athens, John Plutarch, premiered, a few days ago, in Thessaloniki. Behind the scenes of the rehearsals of the scheme, he was met by the camera of the Makedonia TV show "Girls for Home".

The 41-year-old singer spoke about his relationship with his wife and their achievement in raising such a large family: "When I started with my wife Maria and we had our first two children, she did not want to go through the process of having a third child. I accepted it immediately, despite the fact that until then I had not taken out the father's name and thus because we keep them a little in our place, I was a little upset. On the other, I had to listen to my wife and agree to her will. But along the way, after five years, she started asking for a third child herself, after the fourth and after the fifth".

Still, when asked who he consults about his public image, he emphasized: "I have never tried to make an 'image'. Because that's my life, this is my life. I can't be anything different in my career than,what am i in my personal life. At least the people who know me, that's what they see and that's what keeps me going. This is my truth and my secret".

Yiannis Plutarchos in Thessaloniki appears on Fix Live together with Nino and Maria Iakovou.

In the competitive part, as determined by lottery, Dora appeared first with "Baby I'm Yours". Subsequently, Cassiopeia took to the stage to sing 'Killer Bee', immediately after Velvet Fire with the track "No Parking" and finally Eleftheria Eleftheriou who sang "Aphrodisiac". It is worth noting that all the candidates belong to the staff of Universal Music Greece, which has taken over the costs for the participation of the Greek delegation in the competition.

Before the announcement of the results, the nominations of Cyprus were presented, who participates in the competition with Ivi Adamou, of France, represented by the Indonesian-born Anggun, but also of Bulgaria, with Sofi Marinova.

Όταν έφτασε η στιγμή της ανακοίνωσης των αποτελεσμάτων, οι δύο παρουσιαστές άνοιξαν τον φάκελο και, χωρίς ιδιαίτερες καθυστερήσεις, revealed that Eleftheria Eleftheriou will represent us at the 57th Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Aphrodisiac". The 23-year-old singer took the stage and, λίγο πριν τραγουδήσει για ακόμα μια φορά το τραγούδι με το οποίο πήρε το εισιτήριο για το Μπακού του Αζερμπαϊτζάν, ευχαρίστησε τους συνεργάτες και τη δισκογραφική της εταιρία και δήλωσε: «Προσπαθώ ακόμα να καταλάβω τι γίνεται!».
