Porsche Cayenne S Concept



Porsche Cayenne S Concept
The entry level Porsche Cayenne S is more like the Cayenne Turbo that the $ 33,000 price difference would suggest. 4.5-liter V-8 puts 340 hp (110 less than the Turbo), enough to push the S 0-60 mph in 7.2 seconds. The Turbo air suspension with active control is missing, but found that the conventional suspension makes the Cayenne S more alert and maneuverable.  


In general, the Cayenne is actually defined by its computerized electronics (as all modern vehicles will be soon), and the S model has all the good things. The system all-wheel-drive sends 62 percent of engine torque to the rear wheels and 38 percent for the front wheels and then vary the power distribution to each wheel according to road surface and control inputs . The driving dynamics are brilliant, and that cut across all road surfaces and in all times.


 But an SUV is also on the experience of using it, and everything to do with utility is clearly flawed in the Cayenne. It is as if the German engineers had seen the sport-utes only in television commercials dirt-bashing, but I had never driven one of the supermarket.
First, the Cayenne is too high for easy entry and exit, and the doors swing closed too easily to carry passengers. The rear door opens too high to be pulled closed without some NBA style jumping. The seats are too firm, the options too noisy. The instrument binnacle looks confusing and the navigation system resembles a wristwatch with functions too bad. The entertainment system is outdated. Finally, the Cayenne style runs the gamut of emotional insipid unpleasant.

2011 Mitsubishi Global Small Concept



2011 Mitsubishi Global Small Concept
Global Small Mitsubishi Concept is powered by a three-cylinder MIVEC petrol, but when the production model debuts in 2012, 1.0 and 1.2-liter three-cylinder engines are also offered. Both plants are equipped with technology start-stop and regenerative braking. Besides the pair of models of petrol engines, Mitsubishi hopes to adjust the Global Small Concept with an electric motor.
Like pictures above, Mitsubishi launched its Global Small Concept at the Geneva Motor Show. This vehicle is expected to form the basis of the model from the automaker’s next B segment, replacing the outdated Mitsubishi Colt.
Developed in Okazaki (Japan) – Global R & D Center of MMC – in less than two years, the Global Small next intended to merge all these “eco / compact”

 “E” as highly efficient in its packaging in general, Mitsubishi Motors, compact design blends the virtues of a small vehicle (,…) maneuverability and excellent visibility, seating five adults in comfort and accommodation of sufficient space for luggage inside a footprint of recycling (3.74 m long x 1.68 m wide): One of the most efficient space segment-B.



 The architecture of this compact is based was designed to accommodate initial customers and predictable regulatory requirements in global markets if ALL Japan, North America, emerging countries or in Europe, instead of costly adjustments later: the first in the class small car .
“E” for “electric vehicle”: a further measure of the environment – and a direct effect of its architecture fully integrated Global Small – compact and is designed to accommodate a further variant, equipped with a 100% electric motor.
2011 Mitsubishi Concept Global Small dedicated center will be built in MMC Laem Chabang Industrial Estate in Chonburi province, Thailand. The planned volume of 150,000 units (with a possible increase to 200,000 units) will be exported to ASEAN countries, Japan, North Asia, Australasia, Europe, North America and in many other markets around the world.

2011 Audi R8 V10 Biturbo by MTM


2011 Audi R8 V10 Biturbo by MTM

Just a few months ago, got wind of a prototype vehicle parked in front of company headquarters MTM tuning, Germany. This prototype took the name of Audi R8 V10 BiTurbo and was rumored to pack crazy amounts of power under its hood capable. Advancing to the present and the prototype seems to have developed a package of adjustment in its own right and is addressed to the 2011 Geneva Motor Show.


MTM chose to use the 5.0L V10 engine used in his Audi RS6 Clubsport for this model too, but the RS6 730hp rating still falls short of that done with MTM R8 BiTurbo. The R8 V10 BiTurbo is now capable of 777 hp and 888 Nm of torque. Yep, 777 HP. With these upgrades, the MTM R8 will accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3.0 seconds, 0-124 in 9.37 seconds and will reach a maximum speed of 217 mph.
The engine was not all that has changed however. To get that shiny, mirrored in the sports car look, MTM completely removed their paint and polished it up nice and it had more than 700 hours of work. An adjustable rear spoiler, a front lip and MTM forged rims Bimoto 20 inches have also been added as well as some leather in the interior of the R8.

Now that the MTM has dazzled everyone with his impressive work on the R8 V10 sports car, we think it’s time to let everyone know that in order to get that finger lickin ‘suped up Audi customers will have to dish out $ 550,000. Yes, you can pick their jaws off the floor now.
