The new Outlander Sport-Mitsubishi Motors

The new Outlander Sport

The new Outlander Sport is a condensed version of the successful Mitsubishi Outlander SUV. The 5-seat Sport is 13.6 inches shorter and 440 pounds lighter than the Outlander. The regular Outlander has an available V-6 engine and 7-passenger seating. The streamlining of SUVs into more compact form is a popular automotive trend.


The new Outlander Sport-Mitsubishi Motors

Unlike the 2009 Outlander, the option to choose between a four or six cylinder engine is no longer available. Previously the SE and ES models were equipped with 168 horsepower engines, so the 2010 Outlander is an obvious upgrade in that area, stabilizing at the 168 horsepower mark.

However, the 2009 XLS had a 220 horsepower V6 engine, so only a small increase in speed is available between the two different editions. Also, the 2009 Outlander had an EPA estimated 20-25 miles per gallon average, depending on the model.

RVR-ASX Mitsubishi-Outlander Sport

The 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport compact sport-utility vehicle ("SUV") recently made its North American debut at the 2010 New York International Auto Show. The Outlander Sport has already been released overseas, where it is known as the Mitsubishi RVR in Asia and the Mitsubishi ASX ("Active Sport Crossover") in Europe.


RVR-ASX Mitsubishi-Outlander Sport

For 2010, both the Mitsubishi Outlander GT and XLS have a 3.0 liter 230 horsepower MIVEC V6 standard engine. This MIVEC engine provides power and utility without sacrificing the contents of an owner's wallet thanks to an EPA estimated 24 miles per gallon highway average.

The ES and SE models come equipped with a 2.4 liter four cylinder DOHC MIVEC I4 engine averaging between 161 and 168 horsepower, with a fuel economy around 27 miles per gallon on the highway. Both the ES and SE Outlander models pass the PZEV (Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle) requirement, making them economically as well as ecologically friendly. It is important to keep in mind that the GT and XLS Mitsubishi Outlander models do not qualify for the Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle standard. In all 2010 models, the engine block and cylinder head are constructed out of aluminum.

Scion xB Engine and other industry specific

The exterior design is not the only improvement that the Scion xB has over the previous model. The redeveloped xB is much roomier than the old models. The wheelbase was increased by four inches and the overall length by twelve inches. The width of the vehicle is also increased by three inches while the height was decreased by more than an inch to ensure a comfortable ride. The wheels are also bigger than the ones used by the current xB model - the newest xB sports 16-inch wheels.

The 2010 Scion xB comes standard with antilock brakes, stability control, traction control, front seat side airbags and full-length side curtain airbags. In braking tests, the xB came to a stop from 60 mph in 124 feet, a solid performance. Government crash tests yielded four stars (out of five) for both driver and passenger in frontal impacts, and a perfect five stars for side impacts. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety awarded the xB its highest rating of "Good" for both frontal-offset and side impact crashes.

Mercedes SLS AMG-GT3 Due In 2011

If the rumors are true, the door marks the only difference between the SLS AMG coupe and the SLS AMG convertible. Both are said to feature the same 6.2-liter V8 engine capable of 563 horsepower and 650 Nm of torque.

Looking at value for money - can any car at this price be considered reasonable value? Probably not but put alongside its peers it is competitively priced. Let's look at it another way - against the Mercedes McLaren SLR, the SLS is quicker, handles better and is less expensive to the tune of almost two hundred thousand dollars.

Battling Stiff European Competition

The Saab 9-4X will be up against stiff competition when it debuts. The Volvo XC60 occupies the same segment and offers a long list of safety features including City Safety where the crossover is able to automatically come to a complete stop when it "senses" that it is about to hit the car in front of it. Saab doesn't have a similar safety feature to offer buyers, instead it will be relying on its competitive price point to help it battle Volvo, Audi, Volkswagen, BMW and Mercedes for customers. Expect the front wheel drive Saab 9-4X to retail in the low 30s with the all wheel drive version priced from the mid 30s.

Even well before the Saab 9-4X is released, its new owners will need to develop a comprehensive strategy to ensure that Saab remains a viable player for many years to come. Hybrid and alternative fuel technology are options for Saab as are alliances with GM, Opel and others to help the Swedish automaker offer an expanded line up in order to maintain a viable market presence for the long term.

The Saab 9-4X has been the vehicle which the Saab 9-7X replaced. The latter has been built to be a mid sized luxury sport utility vehicle and it found competition with the likes of the Lexus GX, Volvo XC90, BMW X5, and the Porsche Cayenne. It has been built in only one body style which is the wagon that holds four doors. During its creation, the company decided on using the 4WD GMT360 platform. And when it was sent out to the market, this luxury SUV bore with it two engine types: the 4.2 liter Vortec I6 and the 5.3 liter Vortec V8. And to further boost the performance of the vehicle, Saab used a four speed automatic overdrive transmission.

Gas And Diesel Powerplants Offered

Engine choices haven't been finalized but the new Saab will offer both gasoline and diesel powerplants. The latter engine choice will enable the 9-4X to compete all across Europe where gas-diesel sales are evenly divided. No word yet if the Mexican built crossover will offer a diesel option for its North America dealers as American and Canadian customer demand for these types of engines remains quite low.

The five passenger Saab 9-4X will be offered in both front and all wheel drive variations. Leather and chrome treatments will be found throughout the cabin with dual zone air conditioning, voice recognition navigation system, high end audio system with a hard drive device along with all of the latest safety features customers demand will be offered. In addition, a cargo management u-rail system, OnStar, Bluetooth capability and a theft-deterrent alarm system will be standard across the Saab 9-4X line.

2011 The Saab 9-4X

Manufactured by industry giant General Motors, the Saab 9-7X is considered to be one of the finest vehicle from the Saab brand. This vehicle has been in production since the year 2005 but the last batch of Saab 9-7Xs would be seen in 2007 for the company has decided to terminate the production of this vehicle after the year 2007. Easily adorned with Saab European car accessories, the Saab 9-7X has become quite a favorite among various people in the auto market.

Detail Interior VW-EOS

What could be better than zooming along a beautiful country road in your Volkswagen EOS with the top down on a lazy summer day? Knowing that you can put the top up with a touch of a button even while driving should you get stuck behind a large manure truck along the way!

The Eos also has door locks, power windows, and mirrors plus automatic headlights. It has dual automatic climate controls that work well and its good sound system was fairly easy to tune. The test car added a navigation system costing $1,800 that includes a six-disc changer in the center armrest, a different locale.

Also standard in the Eos is a tilt-and-telescope steering wheel and 12-way power front seats with multi-position lumbar support. The seats are heated and have five settings too. VW has loaded the Eos with a tire pressure sensor; side and curtain air bags; heated outside mirrors; and good overhead lighting.

And as part of the sport seat package, the test car has some toggles on the back of the wheel to enable manual shifting of gears with the tap of a finger. If there's one thing that the Eos lacks, it's probably trunk space, which is a meager 5.4 cubic feet. But in fairness to the Eos it can accommodate a small bag or a couple briefcases.

2010-2011 Volkswagen's Eos

Volkswagen's Eos convertible returns for 2010 with no changes to its standard 2.0-liter turbocharged four. The 3.2-liter VR6 engine available in earlier years was dropped in 2009.

The Eos shares its turbocharged, 16-valve 2.0 TSI engine with the Volkswagen GTI and Jetta Wolfsburg Edition. The TSI engine is undersquare, with an iron block, an aluminum head, twin balance shafts, and chain-driven dual overhead camshafts, with variable timing for the intake cam. It features VW's Fuel Stratified Injection (FSI) system, which injects fuel directly into the combustion chambers at up to 1,600 psi, improving both power and fuel economy. Directly injecting fuel also cools the intake charge before combustion, which reduces the risk of detonation, despite a compression ratio of 9.6:1, high for a turbocharged engine.

Other helpful features that the EOS Roof-Control-Module Ultimate provides for your vehicle include allowing you to decide whether you want the windows to stay down or not when you open the roof and automatically locking the doors when you use the remote to put the top up. The Inventors of the EOS Roof-Control-Module Ultimate have you covered because they included almost anything the EOS designers left out. Including little things, like letting you decide how many "comfort blinks" you want from two to six rather than the factory preset choices of either three or none at all.

More convenience, more control and more functions are what you get when you have the EOS Roof-Control-Module Ultimate installed on your vehicle. You can decide whether you want the indicator lights flashing or the horn sounding while reversing your vehicle and numerous other little decisions that allow you to dictate how the vehicle operates instead of it putting limitations on you. Maybe you prefer the interior roof button changed so that up is down and down is up. How about opening the roof with the factory key remote, get in the care and drive off even while the roof is still operating. It should be up to you and with the EOS Roof-Control-Module Ultimate, it is.

What is more frustrating than spending all your hard earned cash on a vehicle only to find out that you can;t use it the way you would like to. The EOS Roof-Control-Module Ultimate eliminates the little annoyances that prevent you from fully enjoying your Volkswagen EOS and allows you to take your driving experience to a whole new level with all the features and benefits you could possibly want from a luxury performance part.

It usually will only cost about $500 dollars to have you Prius up and running again.

new YZF-R1-YAMAHA

We jump on, turn the key and the instruments spring to life. A rapid push of the starter button and also the motor fires by having an odd resonance - somewhere between an over-cammed small-block and a fighter jet. It's a lumpy-sounding idle though the engine spins smoothly under our chest. The kickstand's still down, therefore the fellow from Yamaha who is trusting us together with his bike gets inside a quick warning. "Spend playtime with it; just do not kill yourself, Fine?" he says.

He has justified reason to be worried. We're planning to ride away on the 2010 Yamaha YZF-R1, the business's top-of-the-line sport bike. It includes a 998cc, inline four-cylinder engine that puts out 180 horsepower. Not much of a massively outstanding number in a car world perhaps, however consider that the engine only has to move 454 pounds of bike. That is only 2.5 pounds per hp. The Bugatti Veyron is stuck with 4.2 kilos for each hp.

Even more shocking is how a R1's astounding overall performance may be had for this kind of little money. Even our limited-edition unit which mimics the Moto GP race bike of ace driver Valentino Rossi costs only $14,400-500, or about the price of a modestly prepared entry-level car. For this sum, you get a motorcycle that may annihilate virtually any production supercar created today in a heads-up stoplight drag.

The Yamaha V-Max
This powerful and reliable V4 engine motorcycle has been designed to provide riders with an unforgettable combination of innovation and acceleration. This motorcycle is powered by the all-new liquid-cooled 4-stroke V4 engine. Four unbeatable features that distinguish this bike from others on the market include:

1. Wicked acceleration feeling, together with strong performance.
2. Individual, precise and sharp handling.
3. A superior chassis with unique bodywork.
4. In compliance with EU3 regulations.

The Yamaha YZF-R1Y
This innovative and exciting motorcycle has been designed with the all-new 998cc engine whose design, feel and make-up has been influenced by Rossi's championship winning M1, the new high-tech R1 powerplant is very much linked to a Moto GP bike. Unique features of this bike include:

1. An entirely redesigned aluminium Deltabox chassis.
2. Hard-line new styling give the new-generation YZF-R1 a major new look.
3. Sets a new standard for the super-competitive 1000cc supersport category

2010-2011 The YAMAHA-YZF-R1

2010-2011 The YAMAHA-YZF-R1

The 2011 Yamaha R1 represents a paradigm shift in technology, performance and controllability among litre class sport bikes. Inspired by Yamaha's M1 MotoGP race bike, this latest generation R1 features a crossplane crankshaft design with an uneven firing order to provide outstanding yet easy to control torque and an exceptionally linear throttle feel never experience before. But there is far more to the 2011 Yamaha R1 than just a revolutionary engine.

The 2011 R1 … Yamaha's technical "Tour de Force."

The R1 has been designed to be the "Ultimate Cornering Master" of the open super sport class and one of the keys to incredible handling lies partly in the chassis but equally as important, in its ability to put useable power to the ground. This revolutionary cross-plane crank R1 delivers as much power as the rider wants, exactly when the rider wants it … by a simple twist of the right wrist; leaving the rider feeling like they are directly connected to the rear wheel of the revolutionary R1.

The purchase of a motorbike can be a time consuming and very involved process. One of the main reasons that this is true is because of the high number of manufacturers that all promise to have the best available bike on the market for your purchase. Two of the top manufacturers in the industry today for producing motorbikes are Yamaha and Suzuki. Both of these companies produce dependable, high quality motorcycles and motorbikes that have gained the interest of enthusiasts around the world for many years.

The Suzuki GSX-R1000 is one of Suzuki's leading and more popular models. Two of the reasons for this are because this machine has loads of torque and a very powerful engine. This means that the bike will be able to accelerate quickly off the line. A combination of simple on board functions and a light weight body makes this motorbike very easy to handle and maneuver around corners. The Suzuki GSX-R1000 has a larger 4.8 gallon fuel tank which allows you to hold more fuel for increased ride time and less stops for refueling.

The GSX-R1000 brand new is sold for around $11,000 which is very reasonable considering the quality of motorbike you are getting. There are a number of color combinations available including blue and white, red and black, and silver and gray. This bike can be purchased at just about any Suzuki dealer or where used bikes are sold which there are many different possibilities. The GSX-R1000 is sold with a 1 year unlimited warranty when the bike is sold brand new. This bike, new or used, is definitely well worth the cost.

2010-2011 The HUSQVARNA TC-250

Being all-new, the TC250 was developed around its powerplant. Pictures of this tiny engine popped up almost three years ago as it raced all over Europe in MX and enduro events. During that time Husky was looking after durability and, more specifically, to get the chassis right, and that took some time. During that time BMW purchased Husqvarna, so behind the scenes even more radical things were (and are) happening.
