Modern Dodge Dakota, 2008

2010-10-20T17:52:00.000-07:00

Modern Dodge Dakota, 2008

Chrysler Group unveiled the new 2008 Dodge Dakota mid-size truck with a new engine that not only offers 25 percent more horsepower and 10 percent more torque, but also better fuel economy and increased refinement. The 2008 Dodge Dakota also features new exterior and interior styling, and many best-in-class capabilities. The new truck arrives in dealerships in August.

New for 2008 are striking exterior and interior enhancements that bear signature Dodge styling cues while creating a new persona for Dakota.

Powertrain selections

Dodge trucks have always earned a reputation as bold, powerful and capable. The powerful and capable parts of the equation in the 2008 Dodge Dakota begin with powertrain choices, which include a new V-8 engine -- the only V-8 option available in the mid-size pickup segment.

The new 4.7-liter V-8 offers better fuel economy, power and torque than the previous 4.7-liter High Output engine, while at the same time delivering improvements in refinement. The new 4.7-liter V-8 incorporates two spark plugs per cylinder (the only Chrysler Group engine to do so, other than the 5.7-liter HEMI, increased compression ratio, improved cylinder-head port flow and a new combustion system. The result is 290 horsepower, a 25 percent increase; and 320 lb.-ft. of torque, a 10 percent increase. The new engine is also capable of operating on E85 ethanol fuel, making the Dodge Dakota equipped with this engine a Flexible Fuel Vehicle (FFV).

Refinement improvements in the new 4.7-liter V-8 result from significant revisions to the induction system, a lightweight piston/rod assembly and reduced accessory drive noise through lower accessory drive speed. Engine smoothness at idle is enhanced with a new valve-lash adjuster system. The new 4.7-liter V-8 is also equipped with Electronic Throttle Control.

The new 2008 Dodge Dakota comes standard with a 3.7-liter Magnum V-6 engine producing 210 horsepower and 235 lb.-ft. of torque. The engine also comes with Electronic Throttle Control for positive throttle response, and exhaust gas recirculation to help lower emissions.

A first-for-the-segment remote starter for more convenience is standard on both the 3.7-liter and 4.7-liter engines in the 2008 Dodge Dakota.

The new 2008 Dodge Dakota's powerplants are backed up by a choice of a six-speed manual transmission, standard on all V-6 equipped 2008 Dodge Dakota models except Laramie; a four-speed automatic with overdrive available with Dakota's V-6 engine; and a five-speed automatic available on V-8-equipped models.

For more capability when traction is at a premium, the new 2008 Dodge Dakota may be equipped with a transfer case featuring two-wheel drive or four-wheel drive with locked high and low ranges, or an available transfer case with full-time four-wheel drive as well as selections for locked high and low ranges. The 2007 Dodge Dakota is the only pickup in its segment to offer full-time four-wheel drive.

New look, more model choices
In addition to powerful and capable, Dodge trucks are also known as bold.

For that part of the equation, the 2008 Dodge Dakota's exterior includes a newly styled hood, grille, front fascia, rear spoiler, fenders and headlamps. The front end has been designed to improve aerodynamics and features better fit and gap management. The hood surface was designed to signify power and further amplify the drop-fendered, signature look for Dodge trucks. With these styling enhancements, the "face" of the 2008 Dodge Dakota is better aligned with the rest of the Dodge truck lineup.

Like the Dodge Nitro, headlamps are rectangular units primarily for a contemporary appearance, but also to maximize the surface area for better forward lighting. Reflectors are deep-set behind each lense to achieve a serious demeanor.

All-new fascias better integrate with the restyled grille and incorporate fog lamps. The 2008 Dodge Dakota's tailgate includes a new spoiler that helps smooth air flow over the rear of the truck to improve fuel economy, and the top surface of the cargo box has a new protective surface.

Interior loaded with form and function
The new 2008 Dodge Dakota's interior includes a new instrument panel, center console and accent finishes, and several new interior storage choices.

The 2008 Dodge Dakota Extended Cab's available Full Swing rear access doors open nearly 170 degrees - unique in the segment -- to an interior with class-leading room and seating for five.

Separately, the 2008 Dodge Dakota Crew Cab offers best-in-class room - 37.1 cubic feet -- and seating for up to six. With rear seats folded, a new under-seat storage system, a first for Dodge Dakota, is easily accessible. This system includes a unique, collapsible and removable cargo management system that enables gear to be organized and taken anywhere.

Other storage options are provided throughout the interior. For example, an additional storage bin is located above the glove box, providing easy access for everyday items. An all-new center console incorporates cup holders with modular inserts and a pull-out bin specifically designed to hold electronics such as an MP3 player (which can be plugged into any of the 2007 Dodge Dakota's audio systems), cell phone or Personal Digital Assistant. An additional power outlet is also provided.

Electronic choices include AM-FM stereo radios with MP3 capability and available SIRIUS Satellite Radio that delivers more than 125 channels of music, sports, news, talk and weather. Also available as stand-alone options are a 508-watt SoundBox system (available on Extended Cab models) and a DVD navigation system with turn-by-turn directions. A power accessory delay, standard on all 2008 Dodge Dakotas, allows power functions, including radio, to operate after the vehicle is turned off.

Dodge Dakota = versatility
The foundation of the new 2008 Dodge Dakota is a ladder-type frame, with main rails formed to precision tolerances under liquid pressure and fully boxed for strength and rigidity. All 2008 Dodge Dakotas feature independent front suspension with coil-over shock absorbers. The result is identical ride height for two- and four-wheel-drive models, which contributes to smooth ride and handling characteristics.

The new 2008 Dodge Dakota also continues to wear the crown for highest tow ratings in the mid-size pickup market, with towing ability of up to 7,050 pounds.

Luxury Wiesmann GT, 2006

2010-10-20T17:47:00.000-07:00

Luxury Wiesmann GT, 2006

The success of the Roadster concept is based on a successful synthesis of classic design and state-of-the-art engineering. This encouraged Friedhelm and Martin Wiesmann to develop a new, similarly fascinating, sports car on the basis of the Roadster, the Wiesmann GT.

The 2-seater coupé celebrated its premiere as a production vehicle at the IAA 2005 in Frankfurt, to be acclaimed by the motoring experts.

Despite the suggestions of a classic design as a further development of the Wiesmann-Roadster it was a completely new car which was created. Basic data were gained from the Wiesmann Racing GT, which was tested as a experimental vehicle under extreme conditions during the 24-hour race at the Nürburgring in 2002.

Since it was clear from the outset that this vehicle would not only be optically different, but based on different fundamental data, from the Roadster, there was plenty of room for manoeuvre in the development. Starting point for considerations was the engine. This was to represent a new sparkle, come what might.

Since, as it is well known, displacement can only be replaced by one thing, and that is more displacement, thoughts quickly made friends with the idea of using a BMW V8 engine of 4.8 litres capacity. This made a larger engine compartment than the Roadster's essential, which consequently meant that all the dimensions of the Wiesmann GT would have to be oriented towards that.

The GT grew in all directions, compared with the Roadster: it was three centimetres higher, eleven wider, and no less than 37 longer. To take account of the rather higher fuel consumption of the larger engine, 10 litres additional fuel tank volume was provided, at 70 litres, to guarantee adequate range on longer journeys.

The challenge now facing the engineers was to convert the engine's output into vehicle dynamics. Normally, a larger vehicle also weighs more, which in turn adversely affects the performance figures. This was avoided by designing an aluminium monocoque, familiar from the racing scene. In this way, the increase in weight was kept within bounds, and at 70 kg was extremely modest for a car of this size. The bodywork is of lightweight, high-quality, fibreglass-reinforced compound material and in the familiar manner is also fabricated in the factory.

The xenon headlights ensure good visibility in darkness, and the rear lights, which consist of LEDs, not only give a clear signal but are also unmistakable as the hallmark of the Wiesmann GT even at night.

With a power-to-weight ratio of 3.41 kg/HP the Wiesmann GT is to be found in the leading group of sports cars. The low centre of gravity, the perfectly-tuned running gear combined with the bullish torque delivered by the engine, the optimum seating position for driver and passenger ensure unalloyed driving enjoyment.

The Wiesmann GT is an individual sports car with a classic design, which fits perfectly in the automotive landscape and which will capture its own niche.

Modern Models 2010 Vehicle Reliability Winners and Losers

2010-10-20T17:45:00.000-07:00

Porsche earns top scores in almost every category according to J. D. Powers an Associates.

The J. D. Power and Associates has released a report on long-term reliability of new vehicles. Performance metrics are measured based on “problems per 100 vehicles” (PP100). A lower PP100 score means that the vehicle is more dependable. The study is based on the survey results from 52,000 original owners of 2007 model year vehicles.

The report has found that 25 out of 36 auto brands have shown improvements in long term reliability when compared to 2009. Furthermore, the average PP100 for 2010 has dropped to 155, a 7% improvement from last year.

This year’s vehicle reliability award goes to Porsche, which received perfect scores in almost every category. Other top performers include: Buick, Lexus, Lincoln, and Mercury (a division of Ford in U.S.). All of them received five-star dependability rating. Other honourable brands that have earned four-star rating are Honda and Toyota.

Brands with the worst reliability ratings are: Jeep, Land Rover, and Suzuki. All of them received a two-star rating in every category.

New of 2013 Porsche “Baby” Boxster

2010-10-15T17:38:00.000-07:00

The baby Boxster is no "baby talk".

Porsche has been a truly adventurous company. When the Cayenne first came out, there were a lot of skepticism on whether the so-called “sport SUV” would sell. Many years later, the Cayenne has become a popular luxury SUV. Then came the four-door Panamera. It has the horsepower, prestige, room for four adult occupants, and most importantly, superb handling that makes the Mercedes-Benz S Class and BMW 7 series nervous. The Panamera is still relatively new and it has yet to proof itself to consumers. But so far it has been well-perceived.

Here comes another creative idea from Porsche: a baby Boxster code named, “New 356″. It is likely to have a 2.0L fuel-efficient engine that pumps out about 250hp. The engine may be shared with the upcoming Audi R4.

On the sales front, lower-end models in a luxury brand tend to sell – the Audi A3, BMW 1 and 3 Series, Mercedes B and C Class, and the Lexus IS are some examples. Furthermore, if automakers offer features on lower-end models that are also available in the top-end models, there is the psychological effect of “Hey! My A3 has the same LED headlights as the R8!” Having a baby Boxster in the product line-up would attract people who love Porsches that are “not quite there yet”.

If the price is right for the baby Boxster, it can even lure some of the potential 335i, M3, CLK, and SLK buyers to “convert”. The real problem is, the baby Boxster would also compete with its own Audi TT, TTS and even the existing Boxster if Porsche is not being careful enough in the pricing. Pricing it too high defeats the purpose of its existence (Why would I get one if the true Boxster is only several thousands more?) Pricing it too low may make the brand look cheap (Everyone is driving a baby Boxster. Porsche is not special anymore.)

Only time will tell on whether the baby Boxster can actually make it into production. No matter how “baby” the mini Boxster is, people would buy it. After all, it is still a Porsche.

California Modern Cars - UE86FCTES5KY

2010-10-10T20:31:00.000-07:00

The California legislature is considering regulating the color of cars and reflectivity of paint to reduce the energy requirements to cool them. A presentation on the proposed legislation by the California Air Resources Board is below.

The problem isn’t the color per se, but the reflectivity of the paint overall. And dark colors just don’t reflect well, so they are likely out. “Jet black remains an issue,” says the report.

Anyone who’s ever entered a very hot car knows that it can be cooled down immediately by driving a few feet with the windows open, effectively neutralizing any color-caused heat issues before engaging the air conditioner. But whatever, black is evil.

The new regulations would be phased in beginning in 2012, so if you want that black car, you better buy it soon. More on Autoblog and CrunchGear.

And you thought that black Toyota Pious you bought made you such a good person. Think again, you tree hating energy slob. Luckily, black websites are still ok, even though they, too, use more energy.

Unique of Renault Fluence ZE Electric Concept

2010-10-10T20:21:00.000-07:00

We get it Renault, we really do. You're "green," you're "eco-friendly," just please, never four electric cars at one show ever again. Even if this particular example, the Renault Fluence ZE, is actually attractive.

The Fluence is Renaults most realistic look at the future of vehicle electrification, sporting lithium ion batteries that can charge in three hours at high voltage hubs, do a 20-minute partial quick charge, or completely swap out in three minutes, which, on the face of it is a good idea, until you recognize the troubles in creating and maintaining that infrastructure. The car's obviously based on the handsome Renault Fluence but with the superfluous concept car baubles like whimsical wheels, fancy paint, and a snazzy interior. And just for the record, it's capable of a 100 mile range with a 95 HP e-motor sporting 166 lb-ft of twist.

Unique 2011 ReDesign Renault Wind Coupe Roadster

2010-10-01T19:39:00.000-07:00

Now at last Renault will be unveiled the first images of its new variant, which will incorporate the concept name WIND, a coupé-roadsterfor, a few years ago at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show 2010, in March.

Renault Wind is a two-seater coupé-roadster of 3.83 metres in length which features a highly innovative way of opening up. With its novel electricroof that pivots open in just 12 seconds, Renault Wind brings a completely different take on a car for drivers who enjoy wind-in-the-hair motoring.

With measures 3.83 meters long (the size is similar to the Mitsubishi Colt CZC and Nissan Micra CC ), the trunk capacity is 270 liters , and the roof is not placed in the trunk but remains above, with a style very similar to Ferrari , the 575 Superamerica (disputed in 12 seconds).

2011
Renault Wind Coupe Roadster

As for the aesthetic Renault had improved by Wind , happily, its design and style, as unlike other models, this line has a very nice and aggressive. Recently, models of the diamond could not fall in love as ever (personal opinion), but now with the advent of Wind this seems to change.

At the front optical appreciate a large (black background), a large air intake (with a very similar style to Ford ), the logo of the firm with a good size and a hood of small size. On the side we see some very interesting black rims, and clean and striking design of the rear door. And we see a beautiful behind optics, a large spoiler and excellent finishing.

2011
Renault Wind Coupe Roadster

The engine would consist of a 1.6-liter 130 hp gasoline, another with 100 hp, and a 85 hp diesel.

Renault Wind, a coupé-roadster, is aimed at motorists who lust after a car that is not only distinctive and compact, but also convertible yet practical enough for everyday use.

New Toyota Suspends Sales 2010

2010-09-30T19:14:00.000-07:00

After announcing the largest auto recall in US history last fall to fix sudden acceleration problems, Toyota late Thursday announced an additional Toyota Recall List 2010 of some 2.3 million vehicles. The announcement was made after ABC News told the Japanese automaker that it was going to air a report about more Toyota sudden-acceleration problems.

The problem: The accelerator can stick when it's pushed down. “Our investigation indicates that there is a possibility that certain accelerator pedal mechanisms may, in rare instances, mechanically stick in a partially depressed position or return slowly to the idle position," Irv Miller, a group vice president for Toyota Motor Sales, said in a press release. (Click here for the full release.)

Is your Toyota at risk? Here's a list of models involved in the Toyota Recall List 2010 :

Hence you see advertising slogans like “Pursuit of Perfection” (from Lexus). According surveys, Lexus is probably the closest car to being perfect in terms of reliability. Lexus is also known for being one of the quietest cars. (Remember the old commercial with a stack of champaign glasses placed on the hood while the engine was running?)

New Car Land Rover LRX 2011

2010-09-20T16:54:00.000-07:00

Land Rover LRX will present during the month of June, coinciding with celebrations for the fortieth anniversary of the Range Rover.

Top 3 Minivans Toyota is Potentials for Same Cool Mods

2010-09-15T16:35:00.000-07:00

Toyota Alphard has potentials for some cool mods.

To most Canadians, driving a minivan has never been a cool thing to do. Rather, it is more like, “mom drives a minivan because it is easy to transport kids around town”. The “soccer mom” image makes minivans a turn-off for the ladies.

Personally, I do not have a problem with minivans, provided that it a second car. They are not too much fun to drive, but its practicality outweighs any handling deficiencies. My neighbour describes this perfectly: A minivan is like a guy’s Swiss army knife. There are so many things you can do with a minivan that my regular sedan cannot – bringing my mountain bike to Centre Island for a ride, transporting large items like furniture and big screen TVs, and more.

Modern Motorsport Ducati Hypermotard 1100 Sport Standard 2009

2010-08-30T17:28:00.000-07:00

2009 Ducati Hypermotard 1100

The Hypermotard takes on urban canyons and mountain curves with total abandon. Its purpose is single-minded - to thrill.

The aggressive 'motard' styling and stance combine with Ducati 'Superbike' technology to deliver the best of both worlds. With a riding position that ensures total control, the exceptionally slim and incredibly light Hypermotard is ready to dominate every inch of asphalt with big-bore acceleration and dynamic road holding that redefines the street experience.

High performance starts with attitude and the Hypermotard is the most aggressive motorcycle in the Ducati family. Reduced to its essentials - it is extreme, untamed, over-the-top and always hungry for the next challenge. It offers what no ordinary supermotard can - speeds exceeding 125mph on the race track, fuel injection, and 90 Desmo hp - all combined in an unmistakable Ducati package offering unbridled passion for motorcycles that are truly unique and exhilarating.

The Road Ahead Sets the Challenge

When first unveiled the Hypermotard won instant praise. Just hours after its launch it was awarded "Best of Show" and motorcyclists the world over now understand why.

By taking the minimalist supermotard racing concept, then adding Ducati's unrivaled twin-cylinder power and Superbike technology, the Hypermotard delivers a remarkable experience. The Hypermotard 1100 is extreme and thrilling to ride every day of the week. It turns familiar roads into an all new heart-thumping experience.
Taking its attitude into the city or the mountains with a street smart confidence and no respect for conformity, the Hypermotard is ready for any challenge.
The Hypermotard 1100 is powered by the incredible Ducati two-valve, air-cooled, Desmodromic Dual Spark engine, giving it outstanding power delivery, from a grunt at low rpm to a singing howl at redline. The Hypermotard 1100 engine flexes its muscles with a 98mm bore and short 71.5mm stroke to make 90 horses and 76 pounds of torque.
Compact and purposeful, the Desmo Twin engine's light weight and narrow L-Twin layout, no wider than a single cylinder, ensures that the bike is lean and agile. The air-cooled design eliminates all the water radiators, hoses, valves, reservoirs and pumps, keeping the motorcycle's weight down to a minimum 390lb (177kg) and its lines clean and race-like.
Two spark plugs per cylinder, Dual Spark, optimises combustion temperatures and increases maximum power and torque throughout the rev range, enhancing reliability and reducing fuel consumption. Power is optimized with fuel injected into 45mm throttle bodies and a 2-1-2 exhaust system that exits high behind the rear of the saddle.
In keeping with its extreme character, engineers chose the Ducati 'dry' racing-style clutch for the Hypermotard, the popular choice of thousands of Ducatisti the world over.
With more experience and success with twin-cylinder high performance engines than any other manufacturer in the modern era; the air-cooled L-Twin remains central to Ducati's philosophy of motorcycling. This experience, plus constant investment in quality by design, advanced materials and engineering techniques, has enabled the distance between service intervals to increase to 7,500 miles (12,000km).

2010 Ferrari F430 Inden Special Edition Modified

2010-08-30T17:24:00.000-07:00

Ferrari F430 Inden
Special Edition

The Inden F430 special edition was developed to reach a top speed of over 300 km/h with ease. In the aerodynamic department, the Haiger-based auto tuner mounted a modified front spoiler to properly redirect the flow of air so it can decrease wind resistance and glue the front end of the car to the ground.

The Ferrari F430 has just modified by The German tuner Inden-Design, boosting its looks and performance. While the tuner hasn't revealed the price tag for the Inden-Design F430, the car is more likely aimed at the market niche represented by consumers with an insatiable appetite for spending.

The side-flaps were designed with the same aerodynamic efficiency in mind, not just muscular looks. At the back, the Ferrari received a modified carbon diffuser and a rear valance to increase balance and stability for the pulling rear track.

In the engine department, Inden installed a stainless steel sport exhaust with damper control and Kat replacement tubes, along with new engine electronics and raised the power of the car by 35 hp. The interior of the car features a customizable choice of leather upholstery while the center console is made out of carbon fiber.

Speaking of track, this has been widened both in front and at the back with the help of bigger lightweight wheels. The front wheels were equipped with 8.5x20 rims and 235/30 R 20 ultra-performance tires. The back has been fitted with 12x20 size rims and 325/25 R20 tires. In order to achieve a neutral and focused handling even at high speeds, the tuners from Inden tuned the suspension in order to obtain a reasonable ride stiffness.

Luxury Car Hyundai iX-Onic Concept Car

2010-08-25T17:19:00.000-07:00

Hyundai iX-Onic Concept Car

Hyundai ix-onic concept is a preview for the next generation Tucson crossover that will debut end of the year. Currently we don’t know how many styling cues will be taken from the concept to the production model, but we hope a lot. Questionable marketing decisions aside, the ix-onic, which previews the next Tucson crossover, is a winner. Aesthetically, it has some mildly derivative elements (the face has a certain Mazda quality about it), but it's a good-looking vehicle that comes off bigger and more muscular than its 173-inch length suggests. In other words, it's got presence.

The exterior also has some innovative touches, including headlamps with cool – if slightly contrived – moving internal elements (check out the video after the jump), and as well a coral-like asymmetrical grille mesh and very strong upswept greenhouse that shows off a clean, less hard-edged interior. That said, we could do without the heavy-handed chrome wheels that look like they were cribbed from the guys over at West Coast Customs.

Hyundai’s European designers have done a great job. ix-onic concept looks a lot bigger than it actually is. In fact it is only 4,400 mm long and 1,850 mm wide.

Interestingly, with the ix-onic, Hyundai designers are now going on record saying they are working toward defining a "hexagonal" front graphic as the company's new universal corporate face.

How the latter proclamation fits in with new offerings like the Genesis Sedan and Coupe or the Equus is something of an open question (perhaps this is just on designs for the European market), but as aesthetic signatures go, we can see this idea working to Hyundai's advantage, as the company's offerings currently don't really have a familial design element to tie them together.

The ix-onic – pronounced "ik-sonnik" – makes use of Hyundai's brand-new 1.6-liter GDi turbo four-cylinder, which routes its 168 horsepower through a six-speed double-clutch transmission (a bit of tech we don't recall seeing from Hyundai before), and the drivetrain has stop-start tech to help it yield a commendably low 149 grams-per-kilometer of C02. With Hyundai's previous admission that the company will move toward all direct-injection engines, we can expect to see this powerplant coming to America in the next Tucson, although perhaps not immediately.

Exclusive Vespa GTS 250 Scooter 2009

2010-08-15T17:14:00.000-07:00

Vespa GTS 250 Scooter 2009

A few design changes have been made to add fluidity and dynamism to the look of the GTS, combining the Vespa's classic, exclusive look and maneuverability with the performance and technological prowess of big touring scooters. From the front, the Vespa GTS is instantly recognizable by the position of the headlight placed midway down the shield next to the horn, reminiscent of 1950s Vespas, which had a small lamp on the mudguard. The impeccably finished, double-stitched saddle adds a racy touch while improving the comfort of the ride.

The GTS also features a combination digital/analog dashboard-simple and stylish, the LCD display includes a fuel gauge, a rev counter bar, full and partial mileage, a digital clock with the date, an outside air temperature gauge and a coolant temperature gauge. Analog instruments include a speedometer and a comprehensive set of warning lights: turn signals, position and high beam lights, oil pressure, fuel reserve, the immobilizer LED light and the injection control LED light.

While its natural riding position and ergonomics have always made the Vespa comfortable, the seat on the GTS has a new shape and material for an even better ride. Carrying some bags? A rear luggage rack comes standard, and the underseat storage opens with the press of a button, making those spontaneous trips out of town convenient and hard to resist.

What the designers begin out was that the aboriginal Fiat Uno, the icon, should be the starting point for an actually new car. The Fiat Style Center started drafting the new car, and the analysis bent if it was actually what the applicant wanted. The answers acicular out the aisle to be followed.

The result: an actually aboriginal concept, humorously called "Round Square," which guided the absolute development of the new car.

To accord it a shape, they acclimated bounds from Automated Design (industrial drawing) - instead of the acceptable attempt of Automotive Design, with its curvier, active curve - to actualize the annular curve of the new model.

Adopting the aboveboard as a reference, a car with geometrical, counterbalanced shapes was conceived.

Past, present and approaching agglutinate with aggressiveness and accompany the new.

The Best Luxury Cars 2010

2010-07-01T11:37:00.000-07:00

For years, a convertible roof was a feature only offered with sports cars or muscle cars. Ford Mustangs, Chevy Camaros, and other similar vehicles would always come with a convertible option, giving their drivers a unique top down, wind in the hair experience. These convertibles offered a feeling of freedom that most drivers could only envy. However, for those drivers who preferred luxury automobiles, there were other restrictions to worry about. Most luxury vehicles were designed to offer a smooth, comfortable driving experience, not a fast, sporty one. With the exception of Porsche, Ferrari, and Lamborghini, which always had a focus on combining speed with high end amenities, other luxury automotive companies couldn't provide a similar exhilarating driving experience. When the manufacturer saw a demand for a car that combined sportiness and classic luxury, a new option arose: the luxury convertible car.

This car changed the expectations that customers had for their high-end vehicles. Auto makers such as BMW and Audi were now able to offer a sportier car, with a convertible top, that didn't only focus on the driver. High-end sports cars are two seat speedsters, and are designed solely with the driver in mind. For example, a Porsche 911 turbo is clearly not meant to be a passenger car, while the BMW 3 series could provide the speed, convertible top, and 5-passenger comfort.

This new breed of convertible, coupled with increased horse power, would give the owner a full sports car driving experience without the limited cabin space. Because these cars don't skimp on the amenities either, they are still viewed as complete luxury vehicles.

With the burgeoning success of these crossover vehicles, companies like BMW, Mercedes Benz, and Audi felt that they could earned the clout to offer a full on sports car to the market as well. Convertibles like the BMW Z4, Mercedes CLK200, and Audi TT would give these companies the chance to ride out the sports car wave that they started with their transitional luxury sports cars. Buyers now had options to choose from, regardless of what manufacturer they preferred, or the price tag they were looking for. Now there will always be the option of a high end luxury vehicle that boasts a convertible top and increased horsepower and a traditional convertible sports car that offers all the speed and agility of their Porsche counterparts.

Luxury Car - For the Functional Vehicle

2010-06-13T09:09:00.000-07:00

In these modern days of fast and flashy automobiles, a lot of people certainly love to drive high end vehicles. But then many are wanting of cash for such luxuries. Others still are able to realize their dream of driving one with the use of luxury car leasing.

What is luxury auto leasing? When it comes to high end vehicle lease schemes, definitely the best car lease deals are those autos that can hold their value. With this important fact to consider, people should be able to single out some truths concerning residual values, ones that apply consistently to high end auto leasing.

Remember that to work for luxury car leasing, one has to mind resale values. The determining factor of resale values is simply the public perception about the auto brand and not the reliability rating numbers obtained mainly in quality surveys. Take for example the luxury vehicle Jaguar, it is rated generally as an brand. However, because of the doubting reliability perception within the public, the car takes a dip at the term end when it comes to its value.

High tech features and options as well as amazing cutting edge functions do not automatically mean the automobile will fare excellently. When the times comes that your car is older, better and less expensive auto systems will render its many supposedly high tech function now obsolete.

When getting a luxury car leasing, you must be more attentive to the more useful functions and features, like the power windows, auto transmissions and power wheel drive. Such features are sure to enhance the value of your auto in the used car arena. As it is, second hand vehicle purchasers see luxury vehicles, even those that come with exciting and enticing incentives, less favorably simply because they are perceived strongly as questionable in reliability and quality.

Volvo and SaabThe Best Luxury Car 2010

2010-06-12T08:53:00.000-07:00

For a country of only nine million people, Sweden has certainly left its mark on the world, particularly on the automotive industry. Two car makers, Volvo and Saab, hail from this Nordic nation. Interestingly, both car makers are now part of two American auto giants, but their legendary quality and engineering continues to shape the industry.

Changes in the global auto industry during the 1980s and 1990s meant that many smaller players would have to merge in order to survive. Although Saab and Volvo were building the cars that consumers wanted and needed, their long term survival was in jeopardy. Questions regarding the costs involved in modernizing factories, streamlining production, updating models, and expanding their respective markets became paramount in the decision that both companies made to seek outside assistance. Fortunately, two American suitors were found that have allowed these Swedish automakers to continue production unabated while allowing for a much needed infusion of cash.

Saab - General Motors purchased the remaining shares of Saab in 2000 and the car company has gradually been pulled into the GM fold ever since then. Unlike American divisions such as Cadillac, Buick, and Chevrolet, General Motors is handling their Swedish division a bit differently by giving the automaker a bit more autonomy in product development and market distribution. Still, new Saab models are borrowing heavily from the GM parts bin, with the Saab 9-7x being a chief example of this change. Based on the successful Chevrolet/GMC/Buick midsize SUVs - think Chevrolet TrailBlazer - the new Saab is more refined with a stiffer and quieter ride than its GM cousins. Happily, the powers that be at GM also had the presence of mind to incorporate familiar Saab interior ideas into the 9-7x including: the ubiquitous Saab center console mounted ignition switch, green backlighting, and the grid patterned vents with rubbery knobs. Consumer sentiment so far has been favorable and the new 9-7x has been well received by auto critics.

Volvo - When Ford Motor Company purchased Volvo's car division in 1999 [Volvo's truck division was not part of the deal], many felt that an important era in Volvo engineering would come to an end. Fortunately, they have been proven wrong. Even more so than GM, Ford has allowed Volvo to exercise significant independence and has adopted Volvo engineering and safety practices to other Ford models quite successfully. Most new Volvo models are Volvo inspired with the U.S. automaker benefiting by the sharing of important resources. One exception is Volvo's new CX50 SUV which will be sharing the same platform as the Land Rover Freelander and the Ford Mondeo, but beyond that the rest of the vehicle is all Volvo engineering. Volvo's influence on Ford has extended to the new Ford Five Hundred sedan, which borrowed Volvo's front wheel drive chassis because it could be easily converted to an all wheel drive chassis, an important selling point.

New Bugatti automotive Luxury Car 2010

2010-06-10T14:34:00.000-07:00

Volkswagen's Buggatti Automobiles S.A.S. has recently announced that by the end of February it would have delivered 60 Bugatti Veyron 16.4s. Such announcement has resulted to the over production of the Bugatti Veyron.

The production of the Bugatti Veyron was started in Alsatian Molshiem at the later part of 2005 while the very first delivery was made in March of 2006. It was also last year that the Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. has been able to produce 50 units. The interesting part about the Bugatti Veyron is the fact that it's an entirely new product and there are no existing Volkswagen parts like for instance a Volkswagen thermostats that is available for the Bugatti and yet orders are coming in at an amazing volume.

In December of 2003, Dr. Thomas Bscher, the newly appointed president of the company was given the responsibility of managing Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. Aside from Dr. Bscher, Dr. Wolfgang Schreiber was also appointed as technical director and manager of Bugatti Engineering. The whole Bugatti project was reassessed and a new schedule for the completion date of the super sports car was made.

The production of the Bugatti Veyron has been limited to a maximum of 300 units. The number of the first Bugatti produced only reached 50 units but today Bugatti was able to increase its annual production and hasten delivery time.

According to Dr. Thomas Bscher at the International Geneva Motor Show, "In 2007 we are planning to increase the production of the Bugatti Veyron, because the order entry for the Veyron is getting close to 140 and we wouldn't want our customers to have to wait longer for their Bugatti." He also added, "It is not expected that most of the orders come from the US; traditionally the most important market for luxury vehicles. 30% of the 140 contracts received up to now with a down payment of EUR 300, 000, which is the condition for the production of the vehicle to start, come from the United States. This means that that is where - on a country basis- up to now most of the Bugatti Veyron have been delivered."

The biggest volume of the orders in Europe comes from Germany and England which are two of the most important markets for luxury cars outside US. The Bugatti Veyron has also created interest in Middle Eastern countries and the deliveries made to Arab countries highlight the pleasant sales trend of this unique vehicle.
