Fiat has released details about the Fiat Punto Evo, the evolution of the Grande Punto, will make its debut at the next Frankfurt Motor Show. The Fiat Punto Evo comes with a wide choice of Euro 5 engines, including a 1.3 second generation Multijet diesel and a 1.4 petrol engine with the revolutionary MultiAir technology developed by Fiat Powertrain Technologies and eventually to be incorporated in all Fiat Group engines.

The new Punto Evo also offers Start&Stop, the system that switches off and restarts the engine in stop-and-go traffic. Start&Stop is being introduced as standard on all Euro5 petrol and diesel engines. Another system making its first appearance on the Punto Evo is “Blue&Me-TomTom”, the new portable satellite navigation unit that lets you manage telephone, navigation and information functions on a practical colour touch-screen.

2009 BMW Vision EfficientDynamics Concept

2009 BMW Vision EfficientDynamics Concept

2009 BMW Vision EfficientDynamics Concept Interior

BMW has revealed the Vision EfficientDynamics Concept, the dynamic look of a BMW sports car to a hybrid vehicle. Measuring 181.1″ in length, 74.8″ in width and 48.8″ in height, BMW Vision EfficientDynamics Concept offers ample space for up to four passengers and their luggage. The BMW Vision EfficientDynamics concept car clearly demonstrates the potential of BMW ActiveHybrid technology, which makes its world debut at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show in the BMW ActiveHybrid X6 and BMW ActiveHybrid 7 production models.

The BMW Vision EfficientDynamics Concept powertrain provides a top speed limited electronically to 155 mph, with acceleration to 100 km/h in 4.8 seconds. Engine output is 163 hp with peak torque of 214 lb-ft. Average fuel consumption in the EU test cycle is 3.76 liters/100 kilometers, equal to 62.6 mpg, and the CO2 emission rating is 99 grams per kilometer. For a short time, such as in passing maneuvers, the cumulative maximum output of all three engines increases to 356 hp, with maximum torque generated by the three engines reaching 590 lb-ft.

BMW Vision EfficientDynamics comes with a total of 98 lithium-polymer cells, each offering a capacity of 30 amp/hours and developing continuous output of 600 Amps at a voltage of 3.7 V. For a period of 30 seconds, each cell is even able to develop maximum output of 1,200 Amps. Serial arrangement of the lithium-polymer cells serves to generate nominal voltage of 364 volts, the gross storage capacity of the battery is 10.8 kW/h. With an unusually high discharge capacity of 80 percent, the battery delivers 8.6 kW/h for driving the car. This superior performance comes on overall weight of the entire energy storage system of just 187 lb.

2008 Bugatti Veyron Sang Noir

2008 Bugatti Veyron Sang Noir

2008 Bugatti Veyron Sang Noir Interior

The EB 16.4 Veyron Sang Noir is a special edition, created for the true automotive connoisseur. While its entirely black exterior may initially appear subdued, upon closer inspection it becomes clear that a select number of visual accents make this special Veyron just as vividly coloured as its brighter counterparts.

Similar to its thoroughbred predecessor, the Type 57S Atlantic, the EB 16.4 Veyron Sang Noir exposes a raptor-like DNA that is reflected throughout the entire model history of the marque.

Even the hand-stitched, all-leather interior of the EB 16.4 Veyron Sang Noir plays on the theme of a harmony of extremes. The light and confident Tangerine is offset by a black-piano lacquer finished centre console; both available exclusively to this edition. A dominant black tinted carbon fibre monocoque joins the elegant black body sides, which in turn are complemented by polished details.

The face of the EB 16.4 Veyron Sang Noir is instantly recognisable due to the iconic horseshoe grill, finished exclusively in chrome.

This striking and unparalleled harmony between luxury and sportiness is complemented by alloy-coloured details in the form of the chromed Bugatti grill and door-mirrors, as well as polished wheel surfaces and roof-rails. All-black front lights, air intakes, filler caps and door-handles naturally heighten the stunning effect of the racing-blue brake callipers.

Of the Bugatti EB Veyron 16.4 Sang Noir 15 cars will be built and offered in Europe, the Middle East and the United States.

Indonesia Ditipu Jepang: Kijang Innova Akan Dipasok dari India?

Dari semua produk line up PT Toyota Astra Motor (TAM), Kijang, Avanza, Rush, dan Fortuner yang diproduksi di Indonesia. Bahkan Kijang dikenal sebagai mobil kebanggan keluarga Indonesia, ketika pertama kali di release pada 1977 masih berupa pikap dan kini menjadi multi purpose vehicle (MPV) berkelas, konon tidak lagi diproduksi di dalam negeri. Malah akan diimpor dari luar.

Hal itu mungkin saja, mengingat adanya perjanjian perdagangan bebas (free trade area/FTA) antara negara di kawasan Asean dengan India yang telah ditandatangani 13 Agustus 2009 lalu. Isinya, di antaranya adanya penurunan tarif impor produk (impor duty) untuk beberapa produk hingga nol persen berlaku antara 2013 hingga 2016. Salah satunya, otomotif.

Imbasnya, mulai tumbuh wacana kemungkinan Kijang Innova akan dipasok dari India untuk pasar Indonesia. Hal ini diutarakan Wakil Presiden Direktur TAM Shinji Fujii saat bincang-bincangnya bersama KOMPAS.com, akhir pekan lalu. "Ini baru kemungkinan. Tapi kami akan berjuang mati-matian karena Kijang Innova merupakan produk kami dan asli dari Indonesia bukan dari negara lain," ujarnya.

Shinji menjelaskan, FTA akan menciptakan akses yang mudah untuk masuk atau keluarnya barang dari kedua belah pihak. Perhitungan ongkos produksi akan dihitung oleh prinsipal, dan melihat mana yang lebih ekonomis.

Saat ini, pihak Toyota Kirloskar Motor Pvt Ltd--semacam TAM di Indonesia--telah memproduksi Fortuner dan Innova untuk dipasarkan di India. Produksinya untuk midsize MVP ini menggunakan komponen lokal (dari India) hingga 90 persen.

Saat FTA kedua negara sudah efektif, lanjut Shinji, ada kemungkinan India akan mengimpor kendaraan berukuran mini yang memang direncanakan bakal diproduksi di Negeri Sari ini. Nah, mobil ini juga rencananya akan memperoleh pasokan unit dapurpacunya dari Indonesia.

"Mungkin saja, karena sudah tidak ada lagi hambatan pajak maka kita bisa impor mesin ke sana, dan kita mengimpor mobil mini itu ke sini, possibility yes. Tapi belum ada kepastian." lanjutnya.

Terkait kinerja ekspor Toyota, Shinji memprediksi, pengiriman mobil Toyota ke luar Indonesia tak akan terpengaruh menyusul adanya kesepakatan FTA Asean-India. Pasalnya, India bukan merupakan negara tujuan ekspor Toyota Indonesia.

Saat ini, sejumlah produk Toyota diekspor secara utuh (completely built up/CBU) ke beberapa negara seperti Thailand, Brunei, dan Timur Tengah sekitar 2.000 unit per bulan. Sementara untuk ekspor dalam bentuk terurai (completely knock down/CKD) ke beberapa negara antara lain Vietnam dan Filipina dengan total sekitar 4.000 unit per bulan. Produk yang menjadi andalan eskpor Toyota Indonesia adalah Innova, Fortuner, dan Avanza.
