Classic French Car

2011-03-16T21:15:00.000-07:00

France is well known for its elegance and exquisite taste when it comes to art. Therefore, this country is a welcoming home for all classic cars. But, when it comes to classic French cars Citroen is the first name that comes in mind. Other huge names are Peugeot, Delange or Panhard. One of the most spectacular cars built by Citroen is the Citroen Traction Avant. This car was released in 1934, being a front-wheel drive car. Actually, it was the first front-wheel drive car in the world that was mass-produced. Another great example is the Citroen 2CV, a car that was introduced in 1948, was produced for over 42 years and was actually affordable. The 42 years didn’t mean massive changes to its design though millions were produced.

Citroen continued the series of fabulous classic cars with the Citroen DS and the Citroen SM. The first model was introduced in 1955 and came with some important innovations: disk brakes, self-leveling suspension (that Citroen used for many years). Elegant like any other Citroen car, the DS model came in a few versions, including the estate and the convertible models. The Citroen SM was released in 1974. It had a lot of features inherited from the DS model, but it was much more powerful. That quality made this car the company’s most important sports cars during the 1970’s. Another impressive classic French car is the Delage. This is a classic car that was produced by a French car manufacturer between the two world wars. Nowadays, the car rings a bell only to specialist and enthusiasts, but in its time it was one of the most powerful and expensive cars on the market. Actually, in the 1920s the car won several major driving competitions like the British Grand Prix or the Indianapolis 500.

The two models Peugeot 404 and Peugeot 403 are other great examples of classic French cars. The first one of them was manufactured between 1960 and 1975 and it is well known especially in some African countries where they were popular because of their reliability. Outside the French territory, the production continued until the 1980s, because many taxi companies in Africa used the car. The Peugeot 403 is the predecessor of the Peugeot 404 and it was manufactured from 1955 to 1966. The car became famous, especially because Colombo drove the convertible model of the car in a very popular TV series. If we are talking about classic French cars we cannot forget about the Panhard. This little, adorable car was produced until the 1960’s by an important motor manufacturer. Later on the company was taken over by Citroen. Some other cars we should not forget about are the Citroen vans. On of these is the Citroen HY, a car loved by French tradesmen that used it for years in a row. Its smaller brother is the Citroen Acadiane, another “small transit van” that was very useful when it was released. Classic French cars are well-known in the world and have their place in the car history. Many French manufacturers have introduced a lot of innovations and some, such as Citroen, still continue their work being strong competitors on the market.

Nissan ESFLOW

2011-03-16T21:05:00.000-07:00

gudangmobil [ nissan esflow ] Earlier last month we saw a preview of the Nissan ESFLOW Concept and today the concept made its official debut at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show. The Nissan ESFLOW Concept is a pure EV sports car concept that is powered by similar technology found in the Nissan LEAF. The rear-wheel-drive two-seater has two electric-motors that are placed above the axis of the rear-wheels. Fuel is provided by laminated lithium-ion batteries mounted low for best weight distribution. The Nissan ESFLOW goes from 0-62 mph in under 5 seconds and can travel 150 miles on a full charge.

Nissan says that the ESFLOW is “production ready” so we don’t see why we wouldn’t see something like this on the roads. It’s only a matter of when we will see it going head-to-head with the Tesla Roadster.

2011-03-13T23:11:00.000-07:00

What you need to know about Mercedes-Benz's new GL550: There are no plans for an even more powerful AMG version ofthis seven-passenger SUV. Next need-to-know: The GL550 grille's three-pointed star is Mercedes's biggest ever, saveperhaps for those on Mercedes buses and semis and Unimogs. Can't wait to see how one looks around 50 Cent's neck. Mercedes unabashedly targets the Cadillac Escalade and Lincoln Navigator with the North America-only GL550, even asCadillac tries to compete with Mercedes's passenger cars. This is that model's flagship, complementing the GL320CDIand GL450, neither of which gets the 550's dog-dish-size emblem or enlarged grille. Those are 21-inch five-spokeAMGs, just one inch shy of the 'Slade's optional wheels under fender flares unique to the 550, but infinitely moretasteful.

The GL550 also comes with chrome roof rails and beltline molding, dual-split exhausts, skidplates, chrome load-sillprotection, full-leather interior with a wood and leather steering wheel (all-leather if you choose the no-costheated-rim option), heated front seats, rearview camera, ambient lighting, and, shared with the ML550, blue glass(not shown on either photography model).

Honda CR-Z Concept Car

2011-03-13T22:46:00.000-07:00

Japanese manufacturer Honda will unveil the Compact Renaissance Zero (CR-Z) concept car at the Tokyo Motor Show later this month. This compact and lightweight sports car could pave the way for the return of the CR-X, a compact front wheel drive sports car from the mid 1980's.

The CR-Z concept features a petrol-electric hybrid engine that delivers performance car thrills while also looking after the environment. The exterior profile and rear glass end shows hints of the CR-X plus modern go-fast styling cues such as LED headlights, 19-inch wheels, Brembo brakes and centrally mounted dual exhausts.

‘CR-Z’ stands for ‘Compact Renaissance Zero’—an expression intended to capture the idea of a renaissance in the design of compact cars that begins anew from fundamentals. This design research model of a lightweight hybrid sports car features advanced technologies that deliver enjoyable driving for all while reducing the vehicle’s environmental footprint.

Exterior design
Designed to be ‘Futuristic and Dynamic’, the CR-Z combines powerful performance in a compact form with a futuristic image. For its frontal view, an over-sized grill with a high-performance look is offset by openings on each side that lighten the overall feel. In the rear, tube-shaped rear combination lamps ensure better rearward visibility. Design details emphasizing the CR-Z’s advanced image include door mirrors that provide high visibility in a stylish form, LED headlights patterned after luminous bodies to convey a sharp impression, and jauntyfin-shaped sub-lights. Large, 19-inch wheels are ready for dynamic driving performance.

Interior design
The key words for the CR-Z’s interior design are ‘Hi-tech and Sporty’. The goal was to create an all-new sporty interior that fuses the liberating feel of airy spaciousness with an advanced interface that brings out the fun of the drive. Mesh material on a simple framework construction is used throughout the interior to convey a light, sophisticated image without being oppressive. In the cockpit, the meter unit conveys the image of advanced technology ensconced in a piece of glass artwork, offering the functionality of immediate recognition while enhancing the driving experience with a futuristic and exhilarating feeling.

New Opel

2011-03-13T22:36:00.000-07:00

General Motors announced today that the European version of its extended-range Chevrolet Volt electric car, the Ampera, will go on sale in the fourth quarter of 2011 as an Opel in mainland Europe and as a Vauxhall in the UK, with prices -including tax- starting from €42,900. At the current exchange rates, that comes to around US$59,100, which is significantly higher than the base price of the Volt in the USA that sells for US$41,000 (€29,800) not including a $7,500 federal tax credit. Opel noted that in Germany, with 19 percent VAT, the Ampera net price is €36,050, adding that, because trim levels may be different in each market, prices in each country may also differ.

“The Ampera defines a new class of e-mobility. No other electric vehicle provides the freedom of individual transportation as the Opel Ampera,” said Alain Visser, Vice President of Sales, Marketing and Aftersales at Opel. “We have compromised on nothing. The Ampera is a beautiful car that is as fun to drive as it is packed with premium content.” Even though the exterior and interior design have been slightly modified over the Volt, everything else remains the same with the North American model, meaning that the Ampera can be driven in pure electric mode for 40-80km before the petrol engine kicks in to produce electricity and / or motivate (we still haven’t figured that out…) the front driving wheels.

When the 16-kWh, lithium-ion battery runs low, it can be recharged in about three hours at 230v by plugging the vehicle’s on-board charge system into a standard outlet. Together, the battery and gasoline-fueled engine/generator can extend the total driving range to over 500 kilometers on a full tank.

NEW PEUGEOT 4007 SPORT XS

Alfa Romeo

2011-03-12T09:46:00.000-08:00

Gudangmobil | alfa romeo | Alfa Romeo is bringing an all-new sports car to the 2011 Geneva motor show, according to reports online. Dubbed the 4C GTA, it would act as a halo car for the brand, similar to the 8C Competizione supercar, though at a much more affordable price. A Porsche Boxster-like £35,000 price tag is suggested. Like the Boxster, it will be rear-wheel drive and mid-engined, its structure a development of the hardcore KTM X-Bow. A carbonfibre and aluminium construction could give the 4C GTA a kerb weight as low as 850kg, and with the Alfa Romeo Giulietta Cloverleaf’s 1.8-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine in the middle, providing around 250bhp, its performance would rival more powerful (but heavier) rivals from BMW, Nissan, Audi and Porsche. Alfa Romeo is said to have teamed up with fellow Italian company Dallara Automobili, who engineered the X-Bow. Dallara has reportedly developed a carbonfibre cockpit for the 4C GTA, featuring front and rear aluminium sub-frames to house the engine and a pushrod suspension setup.
The Geneva show car is likely to be a concept that previews a production 4C GTA, which would be the first Alfa Romeo to wear the Gran Turismo Alleggerita badge since the hot 147 GTA hot hatchback and 156 GTA sports saloon of the early ‘00s. Expect the road-ready car to be on sale by late 2012, when it will ideally act as a catalyst to new Alfa Romeo sales – 2010 saw 112,000 new Alfas registered globally. The aim is to shift 500,000 annually by 2014, with a new 159-replacing Giulia sports saloon and an SUV among the next products the 4C GTA will be perched above. It could be sold in America, too.

Citroen GT | Fancy Citroen Performance Car Concept

2011-03-12T09:38:00.000-08:00

Gudangmobil | Citroen GT | There are some concept cars that are indescribably dull – the potential tweaks to an old favourite, for example. There are others that take the idea of creative freedom too far, such as the new Peugeot concept that looks like a strange combination of a mammoth, a hammer head shark, and a hoover. Peculiar to say the least. Then there are the beautiful and fascinating one – of which group the Citroen GT Concept car is definitely a member.

Designed during a collaboration between Citroen and Polyphony (designers of Gran Turismo 5), this car clearly shows is sporty computer game roots. They are apparent in everything from the bold white colour and fat wheels, right through to the shape, which looks like a combination on Audi R8 and a Ferrari. The aim, apparently, is to create a car that perpetually looks like it is moving, and I think that they are pretty close to achieving that. After all, it features those wrap around lights and sleek lines that, as well as offering aerodynamic benefits, make a car look fast and vital.

The interior is perhaps my favourite bit of this gorgeous car. They have really let their imaginations run wild, but in a conceivable way. The end result? A dashboard that looks like something from an alien spaceship, all bold lines and bright metallic orange. Add to this leather seats and a funky on-trend head up display, and I think you have a winner. Will that car ever become a reality? I doubt it. Even so, it is a beaut, and keeps the automotive industry moving steadily forward.

Land Rover LRX Works

2011-03-12T06:47:00.000-08:00

GUDANG MOBIL | LAND ROVER LRX | The Range Rover Sport’s performance, ride and handling have been transformed with the introduction of new engines, transmission and chassis systems. Combine these enhancements with the contemporary style and luxury of the revised interior, and it’s clear that the Range Rover Sport remains the only choice as the quintessential SUV sports tourer,” says Phil Popham, Land Rover Managing Director.

The Range Rover Sport reaffirms its status as the most exciting and dynamic member of the Land Rover range with a comprehensive package of engineering and design changes for the 2010 model year. The vehicle’s stylish new appearance signals the transformation under the skin, which includes two powerful and efficient new engines – the LR-V8 naturally aspirated and LR-V8 5.0-liter Supercharged, enhanced levels of interior craftsmanship and refinement, and significant improvements to both on-road and off-road driving dynamics.
A comprehensive program of chassis system modifications has transformed the Range Rover Sport’s on-road dynamics, while also delivering a substantial improvement in its off-road capabilities.

Like the Toyota iQ Car concept, the Land Rover LRX attempts to solve the problem of creating a more compact car by coming up with innovative ways to save space. Behind the steering wheel, for instance, is an electronic display system that uses "floating" LCD graphics -- instead of putting every instrument in front of the driver, the graphics change back and forth, only showing relevant information when necessary. If you want to see specific statistics, the information is customizable with touch-screen capability.

You can also choose a specific drivetrain mode -- economy for stop-and-go urban traffic that conserves gas; sport for tougher, all-terrain conditions; and standard. The interior lighting and ambiance of the LRX will change with your selection. Green indicates the economy mode, red indicates the sport mode and blue denotes the standard mode.
As car and gadget integration systems are becoming more and more popular, the LRX is jumping right into this trend. The Apple iPhone is an integral part of the vehicle, as there's a slot built especially for the device in the center console. Everything from MP3 files to the inside temperature and seating adjustments can be controlled with the iPhone system, which is part of the LRX's efforts to save space by getting rid of any excess knobs or buttons. Both sides of the backseat also have an iPod docking station, just in case there are grumpy kids in the backseat unhappy with mom and dad's taste in music.

The seats of the LRX also "float," according to Land Rover designers, on plinths, the same structural bases on which statues are built and able to overhang. This allows for extra storage space under the seats, making up for the LRX's more compact size while decreasing the weight of the vehicle without a heavy, complicated seat base. The seats, along with several other parts of the interior, are also built from sustainable material -- the leather is "vegetable-tanned" and chromium-free, and the "fine suede" on the doors and headliner isn't actually suede, but 100 percent recycled plastic bottles.
The Land Rover LRX is just a concept, so the folks at Land Rover don't plan to put it into production. This makes sense because not everyone owns an iPhone and an iPod, but the LRX does help determine future choices made by the company. The car's debut at the NAIAS can offer consumer reactions and help shape future policy on making more sustainable, urban vehicles that appeal to those of us who still like to get our tires dirty once in a while.

The engines available will be identical to the Panamera’s 4.8 litre V8 with or without a turbo.

2012 Mercedes-Benz

2011-03-03T01:12:00.000-08:00

Those who have been eagerly awaiting a 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK to be displayed at a Los Angeles Auto Show were sorely disappointed when they didn’t get a glimpse of a drop-top convertible. Mercedes is not yet done fooling around a brand new car, that will exaggerate several advanced safety features. A major element of the complicated Mercedes-Benz vehicles is active safety, offered in part through modernized systems in its stream portfolio. This new third-generation SLK will underline Attention Assist, which was first seen on the 2010 E-Class. This helps forestall indolent driving. Driver behaviors have been studied for 20 to 30 minutes to establish the driver’s normal movements. As a outcome, the complement can identify a scheme caused by the motorist who nods off behind the wheel. So that the motorist will remain alert, heard as well as visible alerts will be triggered.

The 2012 SLK will additionally underline Mercedes-Benz‘s Adaptive Brake System, that can function as a hill-start aid but it can also request light brake pad application when a driver unexpected rises off a stifle. If a motorist has to slam on the brakes for an emergency maneuver, this action lessens a time required to trigger maximum interlude power. In soppy conditions, a identical process is activated to capacitate the car to keep the brake pads as well as rotors dry for optimum performance.

The carmaker claims that this indication facilities a most appropriate reserve apparatus, optional vicinity monitoring and pre-braking systems. The radar-based system also notifies a driver when a opening narrows in between a driver’s car and the car in front. If a driver doesn’t reply, brake pressure is automatically applied to adjust that gap. Or if necessary, a automobile will be brought to the complete stop. Mercedes’ Parktronic complement provides sensors upon the front and back bumpers to detect objects though it also has the capability to magnitude a length of together parking spots as a car drives past. In further, it gives maneuvering instructions for parking.

New Infiniti G35

2011-02-28T02:44:00.000-08:00

Five months ago, I purchased a brand new Lakeshore Slate (blue) Infiniti G35 Sport Coupe, and it has been by far my most satisfying car purchase to date. The Infiniti G35 is sleek and beautiful, and it performs incredibly. Test driving other coupes with comparable options, I found the Infiniti G35 Sport Coupe to be the best all-around package for my money. The specs and options are quite desirable, but actually owning the Infiniti G35 has proved to be even better than any dealer’s sales pitch could ever describe it.

The Infiniti G35 Sport Coupe is powered by a standard 3.5ltr v-6 engine, with 280 horsepower and generous 270 ft torque. It is equipped with a CVTCS (Continuously Variable Valve Timing Control System), which utilizes an internal computer to continuously tune the opening of the high-flow intake valves to supply the engine with optimal air flow for even, continuous combustion and improved dependability.

Engine performance of the Infiniti G35 Sport Coupe is optimized at all speeds, not just for selective rpm ranges. This makes for an engine that accelerates faster, runs more efficiently and will effectually last longer. The Infiniti G35 also boasts a close-ratio 6-speed manual transmission with short-throw shifter. This makes the shifting so balanced that it is an absolute pleasure to drive.

The new Infiniti G35 Sport Coupe optional navigation system is an advanced computer tracking unit which reroutes the driver to avoid detours and traffic jams. This is indispensable if you live in a metropolitan area like I do. It also sports a retractable 6.5″monitor that informs me of necessary maintenance reminders to keep my car running soundly, and an advanced trip computer with a fuel economy calculator-very cool. I also sprang for the Premium Package, which included a highly gratifying Bose audio system. Eight powerful speakers are precisely tuned to optimize the acoustic potential of the Infiniti G35 Sport Coupe’s unique construction. Controlled by a superior RDS (Radio Data System) which includes an in-dash, six-disc CD auto changer with MP3 compatibility, the Infiniti G35 Sport Coupe is like owning your own private auditorium. An ultimate accessory for road trips, you can insert up to six discs into a single slot for a continuous drive with no juggling cds to keep the tunes going.

Infiniti quotes city gas mileage at approximately 19 mpg for the manual version, (which I have,) and 26 mpg for the highway. I have discovered that my Infiniti G35 Sport Coupe actually gets a little better mileage than that: closer to 22 miles in the city, 28 highway. In addition, the Infiniti G35 Sport Coupe is a certified LEV2. That means, it’s low emissions, so it’s better for the environment.

After all the specs and options, what’s the bottom line on the 2006 Infiniti G35 Sport Coupe?

This is a very sleek, beautiful automobile that will get you noticed. It exemplifies luxury from bumper to bumper. With its buttery soft leather interior, its superior Bose sound system, and its quiet, smooth shifting engine, the Infiniti G35 Coupe literally spoils the driver. The look of this car is old Hollywood meets new millennium. Heads never fail to turn when I’m driving down the road in it. But more importantly, I feel safe in this car and in control of it. That’s because the Infiniti G35 Sport Coupe handles like no other car, so much so that it almost seems to anticipate your hands. Its responsiveness is, in my opinion, unparalleled. The G35 Coupe is not a car you will be taking in for service every two months either (other than routine scheduled maintenance). It’s more than reliable, and will run just as smoothly with 50,000 miles as it did with 50.

After five months of being an Infiniti G35 Sport Coupe owner, I’ll never go back to Lexus. I’ve found my dream car. If you’re shopping for a classy, reliable, but sporty car this year, the Infiniti G35 Sport Coupe is the one to buy. It handles and moves like a more expensive sedan, but it’s sleek and sporty like a midsize coupe should be. Take a test drive today, and see for yourself why the Infiniti G35 Sport Coupe is the best mid-size coupe on the market today. A car can’t make you happy, but getting the luxury you deserve sure doesn’t hurt.

2012 chevrolet corvette C7

If you like Corvettes, this is going to make you smile. Fresh out of bankruptcy court, General Motors announced its two-year product plans for Chevy, Caddy, Buick and GMC. Included are go codes for the new C7 Corvette. The plan is to introduce the C7 in April of 2012 as a 2013 model — a big improvement over the old plan to not reinvent the Corvette until 2014. Let’s just state this up front — almost nothing at all is known about the new Corvette. It appears as if plans for a mid-engine Corvette have been put aside. Like all Corvettes before it, the C7 will feature an engine up front driving the wheels out back. Other than that…

The rumors are that the C7 will be smaller and lighter than the current welterweight C6. There’s talk of using more advanced materials like carbon fiber, aluminum and magnesium as well as smaller engines. Calm down, calm down — as the ZR1 showed us, less displacement doesn’t always mean less power. Especially when a positive-displacement Roots-type supercharger’s in the mix. There’s chatter that the C7′s design might be based on the Stingray Concept from the 2009 Chicago Auto Show, but we’re hoping it’s not. More details as they become available.

2012 Toyota FT-86

2011-02-28T02:26:00.000-08:00

Unveiled at the 2009 Tokyo Motor Show and most recently at the 2010 Tokyo Auto Salon, the FT-86 is without a doubt one of the most spectacular looking coupe they have ever created. Co-developed with Subaru, hence the oft-used Toyobaru or even Subayota names, this sporty coupe draws heavily on Toyota's RWD heritage and Subaru's in-house super-tuner, Subaru Technica International, aka STI.

FT is short for “Future Toyota”. If this is an indication of where Toyota wants to go sooner than later then I'm all for it! Everybody knows that the #1 Japanese automaker is in desperate need of excitement. The FT-86 Concept is certainly a step in the right direction.

This new two-door sports coupe will be powered by a Subaru-derived 2.0L flat-four cylinder engine. Here it will generate 200 hp and power the rear wheels. A 6-speed manual transmission and ADVICS brakes will play an integral part in an era where, as Toyota puts it: “the driver plays the main role in order to experience the joy of driving”. For the Auto Salon, Toyota revised much of the car but the front end got much of the attention. More importantly, they added a turbocharger to the engine for more juice.

With the following dimensions (4,160mm long, 1,780mm wide, and 1,230mm high with a wheelbase of 2,570mm), the FT-86 will give its driver a compact and capable feeling. It will be easy for the pilot to handle this car in the city, on a track or at Touge, all the while being able to accommodate four occupants. In addition to being light and having a low centre of gravity and great aerodynamics, the car is damn hot. It should be a hit with the young and the young at heart.

As for pricing, nothing has yet been announced however it is expected that the car will carry an asking price of just over $24,000 US when it comes to market sometime in 2011.

Sports Cars of the Future: 2013 Porsche 918 Spyder

2011-02-28T02:15:00.000-08:00

In the biggest surprise of the recent Geneva Motor Show, Porsche pulled the cover off the 918 Spyder, a 2-seat supercar that’s both green and mean. How green? Well, driven accordingly, the 918Spyder gets 78 mpg, says Porsche, with low CO2 emissions. And how mean is it? The 3285-lb. carbon-chassis 918 hits 62 mph in less than 3.2 seconds, says Porsche, and has a top speed of 198 mph. A V-8 with more than 500 bhp is mounted ahead of the rear wheels, augmented by front and rear electric motors that add an extra 218 hp to the mix, fed by a lithium-ion battery pack. With a pure electric mode and a rear-biased race mode, the 918 Spyder really is green and mean, and it has real production possibilities. Don’t believe us?

A prototype recently lapped the Nürburgring in less than 7 minutes 30 seconds (that’s quicker than the hallowed Carrera GT), proving it does more than just look pretty on the show stand.

2012 Audi A7 Sportback

2011-02-27T03:35:00.000-08:00

Audi claims that one fine airfield (1.2 inches opened, 0.08 progress grumous) of the high-strength, lightweight, hot-shaped poise utilised in overmuch of the new A7 Sportback’s embody is so toughened that it could alter cardinal A7s, apiece one roughly 4000 pounds. That’s one rugged bookmark. Arguably author notable than the caretaker brace is the fact that plumy aluminum makes up nearly 20 proportion of the Sportback’s bod, including the hood, parturition, doors, and advanced fenders, resulting in a relatively lighted kerb unit. A BMW 535i xDrive GT, in alikeness, tips the scales with some 700 surplus pounds. 2012 Audi RS7

But what real makes Audi’s new coalesce of coupe, sedan, and car so unscheduled? Ah, that would be its soignee and sporty sheetmetal, a dead image for the drop-dead-gorgeous Sportback construct disclosed at the 2009 City machine evince. Increase LED headlamps are easy (Element nonnegative lamps are accepted), piece the taillamps are prefab up only of LEDs, sans the occurrence promiscuous. Moreover, the side-view mirrors game LED indicators, and the CHMSL is a ectomorphic window crossways the width of the incubate. At the number of the erect beat resides an joint mollycoddler that subtly sleeps until 80 mph, when it extends upwards for augmented downwardly personnel. Back to those pull mirrors: They’re mounted on the doors, a la the R8, to commit the A7 a solon sports-car regain. Other subtle but evidential organization cue is the slender, lift pane integrated into the comprehensive C-pillar that harks back it’s virtually as elongated and thick as the 535i xDrive GT, other Teutonic four-door concoct, the A7 is most 6 inches shorter in tallness. That, along with its weeklong punk, momentaneous erect deck, and endorse “cocaine” contrast (the profile role urgency that runs from the headlamps to the taillamps), makes it resemble the svelte Aston Martin Rapide four-door coupe writer than the unstylish Bimmer crossover. Piece few, if any, will cross-shop the A7 against the Rapide, umpteen faculty examine to the 5 GT as machinelike. Audi’s next-gen V-8, which debuts in the 2012 Bentley Continental GT, could conclude its way into a CLS 63-fighting S7, should that quattro GmbH lift materialize. (Gossip is it’ll entry at the Town locomote pretending in a twosome weeks). Until then, the 3.0 TFSI quattro faculty be the doctor A7 variation in the States. But no pauperization to vex — it’s a most excellent edition.

During a advertising in Island, Italia, we had the opportunity to have a European-spec 3.0 TFSI quattro, and it horde as tasteful as it looks. State from the 3.0-liter emotional six — a slightly detuned variation of the 333-horse machine utilised in the S4 — is sizable and comes on smoothly. Advisable yet, the 3.0T emits a fabulous, racy emit low WOT, as it exhales through duple chrome-tipped jade pipes. Tho’ Land testament get only the accepted ZF 8-speed Tiptronic, the Euro-spec car we chisel had a 7-speed dual-clutch robotlike — wait to see that tranny in the S7. We’re big fans of the twin-clutch S tronic, what with its broadloom, rapid-fire shifts, but the 8-speed, as we’ve tasted in the new A8, is nonentity brief of superior. Thus, the U.S. car shouldn’t have any discernible sack in action, with 0-to-60 attractive about 5.5 seconds. If anything, the Tiptronic’s hydrocarbon frugality should regular quattro all-wheel ride, tweaked and landscaped, now sports a crown-gear halfway differential and torque vectoring. The once utilizes two train whose set someone a crownlike plan. The deceiver tip adapt operates the product upright to the deceiver calculation, while the raise culminate controls the propshaft to the raise diff. Compared to the old multiplication quattro, the new crown-gear grouping offers a broader torque dispersion arrange, which is rive 40/60 front/rear low inbred conditions but can be dissever 15/85 if the face axle loses clutch and 70/30 if the back experiences less rubbing. Audi achieves torque diverting more force to the maximal roller(s); an optional climb reckoning, using a multi-plate treadle, actively routs force between the straighten wheels with the cognition to transport nearly all torque to one machine.

Travelling on the C7 level, which module also fit the next-generation A6, the A7 Sportback features a multilink front/rear falsification with poise springs and 18-inch wheels wearing 245/45 tires. Our attempt car wore optional 20-inch alloys booted with 265/35 City ADVAN Athletics tires. Flatbottom trilled on dubs, the A7 provided a tense but kind journeying that struck a overnice cooperation between sporty management and voluptuous solace. Audi Route Superior, which adjusts the transmitting movement points and valve and direction feeling, comes classical. Vocalization of management, different the A4 and A5, which use a land hydraulic wheel, the A7 boasts a new electromechanical group that consumes no drive when the vehicle is hurling honest of the finest regain and linearity from any Audi to companion, and doesn’t sustain from the extreme light-to-heavy transformation that we change in our long-term A4 Avant when shift from condition to game in ADS. For those wanting the most sport, an nonobligatory S connecter collection adds 19-inch alloys, a slightly change move point, and a wicked interior.

Complementing the A7′s beguiling body is a princely, beautifully executed 4-seat cabin, full with sumptuous leather and true actress plain. Of state is an accessible layered oak coat, in which wispy layers of oak are stacked and secured unitedly, delivering the enhancive mention of a good yacht. Of direction, metal replaces author if the S merchandise box is patterned. Whether its surface is clipped in tree or metal, the A7 does a o.k. job of not decoration case type. Freight power is rated at 18.9 Frequence? Go for the nonmandatory Kick & Olufsen system that touts 15 speakers and 1300 poet of land. And for the supreme in steering and tactile enjoyment, there’s MMI piloting positive, which includes Google Connecter fowl’s-eye-view maps, a console-mounted touchpad for controlling functions and travel information, and a 60GB erect track. The A7 straight offers Wi-Fi Cyberspace connectivity. The high-tech track doesn’t stop there. More accepted or nonobligatory creativity includes a head-up communicate, reconciling cruise moderate, period modality, four-zone reflexive A/C, engine start-stop, alternator forcefulness exploit, existent and perpendicular parking).

With the A7′s Earth accomplishment near 6 months inaccurate, Audi is far from surround a lower credit, though we were told to wait a base damage of around $60,000. For that sort of money, we can’t cerebrate of another car that so exquisitely blends wealth, action, model, subject, and utility.

CL65 AMG models.

2011-02-27T03:04:00.000-08:00

Less than a month after taking the wraps off the regular CL-Class facelift models, Mercedes-Benz went ahead and revealed the flagship versions of its über luxury coupe, the 2011 CL63 and CL65 AMG models. Both cars will have their world premiere at the Paris Motor Show and arrive in U.S. showrooms in November.

On the outside, there are some subtle styling tweaks on both AMG models such as the redesigned front bumper with LED daytime running lights, the more "V"-shaped grille, a contoured hood, larger headlamps and a reworked rear bumper with newly styled tail pipes. Interior revisions are limited to the new steering wheel, higher-quality trim materials and different color options.

The most important changes, however, are in areas you can't see. Starting with the CL63 AMG, out goes the old naturally-aspirated 6.2-liter V8 and in comes the smaller, lighter yet more powerful 5.5-liter V8 with twin-turbocharging and direct-injection technology, hooked up to an AMG Speedshift 7-speed automatic.

In standard form, it churns out 536HP at 5,500 rpm and 590 lb-ft of torque from 2,000 to 4,500 rpm propelling the CL63 AMG from zero to 60mph (96km/h) in 4.4 seconds, and on to an electronically limited top speed of 155 mph (250km/h).

Add the optional AMG Performance package, and output climbs to 563HP and 664 lb-ft of torque allowing the coupe to reach the 60mph (96km/h) mark in 4.3 seconds and an electronically limited top speed of 186 mph (299km/h).

Mercedes says despite the power and torque increase, fuel consumption and CO2 emissions have been reduced by around 27 percent and 30 percent respectively over the older naturally aspirated V8.

In addition the new engine, the 2011 CL63 AMG receives three new systems as standard (Direct-Steer, Torque Vectoring Brake and crosswind stabilization) that promise to improve handling and safety.

Meanwhile, the range-topping CL65 AMG continues to use a 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12 mated to a five-speed automatic transmission. However, AMG engineers have tweaked the V12 unit which now produces an additional 17HP for a total output of 621HP, while torque remains the same at 738 lb-ft. The car is capable of accelerating from 0-60mph (96km/h) in 4.2 seconds continuing to a limited top speed of 186mph (299km/h).
