Rolls-Royce preparing two new models based on the Ghost

No comments
Fourteen years after Nova purchased Bentley, its British product has two unique collections, Mulsanne and Navigator – with several versions at the Continental's lower cost – an SUV on the way and perhaps a activities car and a Mulsanne activities convertible, too. In the 14 decades since BMW purchased Rolls-Royce, its British product has the Phantom and Ghost – with three versions at the Phantom's much high cost. Rolls-Royce doesn't pursuit sales, but the distinction in the product route helps describe why Bentley has marketed more vehicles in the first six months of this season than Rolls-Royce marketed all of last season.
And even though Rolls-Royce isn't completely about the count, it would still like to enhance on the 3,538 vehicles it marketed last season – a revenue history that surpassed a level set in 1978. To do so its CEO is preparing one or two more Ghost-based designs beyond the as-yet-unnamed Phantom Vehicle due next season, perhaps to be known as the Corniche, according to a review in Autocar. A sports convertible edition of the Phantom Vehicle is the apparent think for one of them, and it would get the double-R "closer to 4,000" revenue, where the CEO would like to be.
Revenue might not be the only aspect of it, though; the title of the Autocar item says the CEO wants the new designs because they're "required to provide Rolls-Royce a appropriate identification." If that is precise, we have no concept what type of identification Rolls-Royce could be losing that would be provided by a broader variety of vehicles in the Phantom variety, which by their position in the brand's own collection are of course not the most luxurious carriages on the earth.

Vokswagen’s latest 235-mpg XL1 spied during hot weather testing

A few months ago, we captured the Volkswagen XL1 testing in some cold-weather environments, and as the ultra-fuel-efficient multiple gets nearer to development, some more spy images have appeared displaying the car performing hot-weather tests. A development edition of this diesel plug-in multiple car is expected to return 235 mpg, and it could be on sale in limited numbers by next season.
Looking very much like this year's Nova XL1 Idea, this model stands out with its structured type and its inset, filter back monitor. The last time we saw the XL1 in model type, it had entrance showcases installed outside the car either as cover up or in place of the side cameras, but these newest injections show that the car will in fact depend on cameras for drivers visibility. The deficiency of entrance showcases should help keep the car smooth – Volkswagen detailed the concept's move coefficient at just 0.186. This car is also losing the full rear-wheel protects that will give the car optimal aerodynamics.
With the gullwing-like gates start, we can also see some of the internal, which has a very identical overall look as the idea such as the large evaluate group, routing display, move handle and middle collection manages. The device board and A-pillar look to made from carbon fiber. One thing we can't see from this taken is the agreement of the car seats. The concept cars presented an balanced out sitting settings, and it isn't clear if this will bring over to the design.
From these shots we can also see into the back engine compartment showing a huge cooling fan over what is expected to be a little, two-cylinder diesel petrol fuel engine. This effective web page along with a 27-horsepower motor page unit and seven-speed DSG transmission is what will give this car its triple-digit gas economy numbers.

AMC Pacer
We chose
the Pacer as No. 1 minimally because we saw SO many of them on the road over
the years. The overall effect of the Pacer, illustrious by its oversized rear
window, has been alternately described as "a pregnant roller skate,"
"a human terrarium" and "a fish basin." As added insults,
those giant windows tended to escape and many models had seats with a blue jean
motif plus brass buttons. On the brilliant side, these buttons served to
"goose" a driver awake on bitter cold mornings. This advantage was outweighed
during the heat of summer, however, when the solar-heated buttons parched into
the flesh, causing what would come to be known as the "Pacer howl,"
an otherworldly scream that anyone going about his commerce would hear
throughout any normal day and soon learn to ignore.
Fiat
Multipla
Used as
taxis all over Italy, the unique design Multipla looks like a car that was
melted on top of another car. Like certain dog breeds, this model seems to have
cornered the "it's so ugly it's beautiful" market. While it makes practically
every list of ugliest cars ever (it&'s been described as having a
"frog face" look), many owners and collectors revel in its
"unique design." In 2004, the Multipla undergo a major face-lift to
shed its original styling for a more reserved look, with the intention of
attracting more buyers. But the result seems to have been a loss of its difference
in the minds of many.

The release of the 2013 Cars Santa Fe is a larger cope than you might think. It's not just the third-generation of the automaker's most well-known cross-over – it formally represents the end of what will permanently be known as Old Cars. Every individual item in the organization's constant is either product new or considerably rejuvenated, and the well-liked Tucson that started this whole item rebirth is formally the earliest automobile seated within your regional Cars supplier. (Well, unless they have some of the now-dead Veracruz CUVs still seated out back.)
What was once a basic little caterpillar has indeed become one terrible of a butterfly?
But that's not the only purpose why the 2013 Santa Fe release is a big cope. Cars have a probability to catch some midsize cross-over customers it hasn't won over in modern times. Elsewhere in the The philipines, Inc. kingdom, Kia is currently throwing significant buttocks in this section, having marketed over 130,000 Sorento crossovers this year as opposed to Santa Fe's 74,391.
So there's a lot driving on this last level of Hyundai's change, not the least of which is ongoing the brand's amazing skills of revenue development. Does this 2013 Santa Fe have what it requires to climb up to the top of the midsize cross-over category, formally closing Hyundai's position as a gamer in nearly all of the most often-shopped sections (minus pickups, of course)? We are advancing to Playground Town, The state of utah to discover out.

The heir to the BYD F3 has gone through a number of name changes on its way to development, lastly deciding on Su Rui, but its USP has been kept in since the beginning: remote control function. That's right, a full-sized, road-legal sedan that can be drive by remote control. Of course, the R/C performance has tight limitations: the Su Rui has a max rate of two miles an time when being managed slightly and it only performs when the owner is no more than 33 feet away. But who loves you for you about that – it's a full-size R/C car!
In situation you were thinking about the Su Rui's specifications, there are two engines on the selection, one is a 1.5-liter four-cylinder with 109 horse power operating through a five-speed guide, the other a 1.5-liter turbo four with 154 power and the option of a six-speed guide or a six-speed automated. The remote control car comes with the 1.5 turbo and, we're supposing, the automatic.
The car can be began and driven in all ways with the remote control, and BYD has pressed the function as useful for getting into limited vehicle parking areas or finding your car when it's seeing and you don't have an offset umbrella. We determine that once the dark hats get operating on it, there will be a few more projects the China automobile sedan is excellent for.

The mind-set is competitive and "Attack Mode" in characteristics, clearly displaying how exhausted Mercedes is of being known as the less interesting, more light respectful in German brand.
The New Ferrari Enzo - First Look
12:27 PM

It's hard
to trust with Ferrari having just released the record smashing F12berlinetta
that amazing more wicked would come along.
But from scout
shots leaking from Europe, there is, and from the looks of it, it’s not just
any Ferrari, but the next-generation Enzo.
Information
is slight, but here’s what we’ve heard. Unlike the F12berlinetta, the design of
the new Enzo internally chosen the F70 will not be a joint effort with
Pininfarina, but will be an internal affair. A V-12 will likely be the engine
of choice, paired to a KERS mixture system with all-wheel-drive grip. Some
outlets have speculated that the 730-bhp 6.3-liter engine from the
F12berlinetta will be used, which would simply place the new Enzo in the
800-bhp club. We expect vigorous servings of carbon fiber and aluminum for the
new super Ferrari’s building, helping it weigh less than 3000 lb.
Considering
how the last Enzo shattered its peers in our tests, setting 0–60 mph,
quarter-mile and slalom records, we’d expect no less from its substitution. If
so, look for the F70 to run sub-2.5 seconds from 0–60 mph, under 9.9 sec. to
the sector mile and faster than 77.2 mph through our slalom. These numbers may
seem impossible, yet Ferrari engineers continue to amaze us by delivering them.
Although
the heavily clad test mule reveals few particulars regarding the styling of the
new Enzo, our artist was able to pull enough details to pen a picture on what
the upcoming Ferrari might look like. If rumors prove true, look for the
all-new Enzo, F70, or anything clever name the Italians come up with, to bow at
the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. And with all the mules running about, that forecast
looks to be true.

The World First luxury cars are made at 1920 – 1930

A personal luxury car
is a highly styled, luxurious automobile projected for the comfort and
satisfaction of its owner/driver, sacrificing passenger space, cargo capacity,
and other practical concerns for the sake of style. The personal luxury car has
often been a profitable market segment of the post-World War II automotive
market.
The background of
the personal luxury car are the expensive, often custom-bodied sporting luxury
cars of the 1920s and 1930s, some of the most important of which were built by Alfa
Romeo, Bugatti, Delage, Delahaye, Duesenberg, and Mercedes-Benz. Two well-known
examples were the Duesenberg SJ and Mercedes SSK: extremely fast and
stratospherically expensive automobiles eschewing the comfort of pure luxury
cars while being too large and heavy to be true sports cars.
They nonetheless
offered characteristic style, impeccable craftsmanship, and strong performance
for wealthy buyers (including film and music stars, kings, and gangsters) who
wanted to project a debonair image. The Great Depression and World War II
eroded the market for these expensive, modified cars, but the postwar era still
produced noteworthy examples like the Bentley Continental R Type with its fine
two-door body built by H.J. Mulliner. A related, primarily postwar occurrence
was the grand tourer (GT), a relatively comfortable, high-performance car planned
for high-speed, long-distance travel. Italy became a major producer of GTs,
with marques like Ferrari and Maserati offering characteristic, often
custom-bodied models of considerable performance. Alfa Romeo never healthier
from the Second World War. This emptiness was filled by Ferrari.
Both the modified
luxury car and the GT were beyond the reach of all but the wealthiest buyers,
and the 1950s saw a growing trend in both the United States and Europe towards
mass-market "specialty cars" catering to drivers who coveted the
image of the bespoke equipment, but who could not afford the cost and to
wealthier buyers who could afford the authentic article, but disliked the
inconvenience and complexity of servicing and repairing it, especially exterior
of a major city area where foreign car dealerships were few and far between.
Buyers were also interested in automatic broadcast, air conditioning, power
steering, and other convenience options not usually offered on GTs or sports
cars of the day. In its August, 1967 issue, Motor Trend magazine noted that the
domestic "luxury specialty cars" of the day (Ford Thunderbird, Buick
Riviera, Oldsmobile Toronado, Cadillac Eldorado and Pontiac Grand Prix)
appealed to buyers who wanted dependability and durability not found in the
exotic European imports of the 1950s along with those abovementioned
American-style options which kept them buying American cars." M/T added
that "Motorists of just about every stripe can find a now car with
pleasing and characteristic lines, good presentation and all the things that go
to make a car enjoyable."

New Bugatti Veyron - Most Expensive and Fastest Car in the World

The Bugatti Veyron
16.4 reigns as the world's most luxurious car, created by the well famous
manufacturer of automobiles, Bugatti. With the company's long years of
experience in this kind of industry, they have created masterpieces and they
have become the essence of a company with a great passion for automobiles. The
company was started by father and son, Ettore and Jean Bugatti in the year
1901. Together, they were able to create remarkable and amazing combinations of
art and technology in the automotive industry.
At around $1.7
million, the car is by far the most luxurious car in production at present with
the nearby contestant, the Ferarri Enzon, coming in at around $1 million. For
the price of the Veyron you could buy both the Enzon, and the third place candidate,
the Pagani Zonda C12 F, which comes in just over $700,000. This price tag is
not for nothing though, as the technology in this car, as well as the design
and calm features are all top of the line, and beyond anything most people have
seen to date.
The Veyron is a
combination of high performance and stylishness. This super sports car
possesses the capability to travel at extraordinary speeds and it indisputably
resembles the elements of a classic Bugatti design with a modern touch.
Not only is it the
most luxurious car, but it is also the fastest manufacture car on the road
today. Its 1001 HP engine pushes it to its top speed of over 250 mph, which is
faster than the 240 mph of the preceding holder of the top spot - the McLaran
F1.

Latest small car Mercedes B-class review, test drive and video
12:40 PM
Jessy
No comments
It only takes a short while exhausted in the
new B-class to realise that, more than a Compact Sports Tourer, it is a gravely
spacious hatchback with all the quality and appeal of a full-size
Mercedes-Benz. With the launch intended for the second half of August, the
B-class will, for all intents and purposes, be in a class of its own. It will
slot in below the C-class and above the A-class with which it shares its basic planning,
so expect it to be priced at around Rs 24-26 lakh.
Before you read on, you must know that the
B-class you see here is very diverse from the car that will be launched in
India. This car is left-hand drive, has a six-speed manual gearbox and comes
with a sporty body kit that adds those beautiful but impractical 18-inch rims
and run-flat tyres. The car is here as part of Merc’s pre-launch endorsement of
the B-class and while our drive was short, it allowed a reasonably good insight
into what to expect from the Indian-spec car.
The first thing that grabs you is the design –
there are a number of styling accompaniments intended to create visual width –
the large grille, well-defined nose, low bonnet and high roofline do give it
some individuality, but it’s the upswept flank crease that really catches your
eye.
The B-class is larger than it looks in pictures.
As you can see, it is significantly taller than a C-class and the wheelbase is obviously
long. This is the first transverse-engined, front-wheel-drive Merc on auction
in India. Look under the cap and you’ll see the engine sits ahead of the front axle
line, thereby therapeutic vital space for the cabin.
The driving place is upright and something of
a middle ground between tailgate and MPV norms. But it’s easy enough to get contented
and, though this car didn’t have them, we’re pretty sure Merc will offer motorized
seats on Indian versions.
Space inside the car is generous – there’s
ample room for heads and knees wherever you’re sitting, and rear legroom is mainly
good. However, the seat base is a bit too short and thigh support is not great.
The boot is helpfully big though.
Other highlights lie with the sheer excellence
of the interiors. The nice, sporty three-spoke wheel, the triple AC vents in
the centre and the sheer quality of leather and plastics tell you that you’re
in no normal hatchback. It’s a practical cabin too, with a large glove box and
plenty of storage spaces dotted around.
