It is now known that MP4-12C developed over 300 km/h, accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 3 sec and 0-200 km/h for 10 sec, which is remarkable given that the Porsche 911 Turbo S, Ferrari 458 Italia and Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera they require respectively 10.8, 10.4 and 10.2 sec. acceleration from 0-200 km/h The machine can also boast an extremely low for this class of vehicle separate levels of CO2 emissions (in 300 gr/km.). The car has a seven-speed gearbox with double clutch transmitting drive to the rear wheels, which has three driving modes (Normal, Sport and Track). Future owners also will be able to adjust the sensitivity of the steering wheel and gas, the hardness of the suspension, the time of changing gears, the control system stability and sound from the engine.

BMW X1

Ivan Yordanov — Sat, 01 May 2010 22:47:48 +0000

After a brief diversion in the direction of the new Opel Astra, again we have the SUV wave, this time we checked the ability of all-new small SUV BMW, received the designation X1, which actually has no direct competition. X1 has a very short history since it hit the market last year. Many critics have expressed doubt about its success, because it is a compact car, but high-end, respectively, as is its price. We remind you, however, had similar sentiments and setting X3, 7 years ago, but ultimately the model proved extremely successful. Competitors Mercedes and Audi took them several years to meet him, playing GLK and Q5, but the Bavarians and are currently leaders in this segment. Do not forget also that BMW has proved to be one of the most innovative companies, able to anticipate the future. Furthermore, Audi said it will launch in Q3 2011. As hard to talk and develop BLK, by Mercedes, which confirms the interest of customers sub-compact SUV models to high-end. The appearance of the smallest representative of X-models of BMW it definitely belongs to this family, although its dimensions are more modest. Compared to the X3, the car is 11.5 cm shorter, 5.5 cm closer and almost 13 cm. lower and the distance between its two axes is only 3.5 cm less. BMW is determined outside the model as a form of joy. It is no coincidence aimed at targeting modern looking car that can deal seamlessly into local, long distance and off-road conditions, while offering first class comfort and look attractive.
When you come in in the X1, typical for BMW feel comfortable environment, achieved through quality materials, functionality and modern design. The seats are high, thus the driver and passengers feel completely situated in the SUV. Cockpit is traditionally oriented towards the driver and the interior designers have tried to create lots of places to store luggage. The actual luggage compartment has a volume of 420l. But in the rear seats folded it rose to 1 350l. Curiously, the angle of the rear seat can be adjusted. BMW X1 comes with three petrol and three diesel engines, all meeting the standard Euro5. The basic modification is sDrive18i, relying on four-cylinder petrol engine with a power 150 h.p. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h for 9.7 sec and the mean and fuel consumption is 8.2l/100km. Other gasoline are xDrive25i and xDrive28i, which are six-cylinder engines delivering 218 and accordingly 258 h.p. power. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h with them and going for 7.9 and 6.8 sec, maximum speed is 223 and 230 km/h and average fuel consumption - 9.3 and 9.4l/100km. All three diesel engines are two-liter four, and their capacities are 143, 177 and 204 h.p. The first two are offered in combination with both power to all wheels, and only to the rear, while the most powerful is only available with xDrive system. In sDrive18d fuel is only 5.2l/100km., Where sDrive20d - 5.3l/100km., While xDrive18d and xDrive20d this indicator is 5.7 and 5.8l/100km. The most powerful diesel, xDrive23d, do spend an average of 6.3l/100km., Accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h for 7.3 sec and reaches a top speed of 223 km/h. As in all new models of BMW, and are embedded in X1 EfficientDynamics technologies designed to reduce fuel consumption and increase driving pleasure. Start / Stop feature allows the engine to be turned off when the car is stationary, such as red lights, congestion or rail crossing. X1 has a system for regeneration of braking energy, which subsequently is used for acceleration. Sight of the driver is an indicator of changing gears, highlight the most appropriate time to switch to another speed.
BMW X1 boasts with adaptive headlights and an assistant for the beam, which sensors through the windscreen when assessing them on and off. Dynamic cruise control does allow to save over 30 km speed per hour and to increase or decrease the lever on the steering wheel without using your legs, it is deactivated by pushing the accelerator or brake. Customers can also order a management system, iDrive, which will have complete control over all functions of the car as it includes 8.8-inch display, which is displayed information. Reversing camera does show what happens behind the car and helps the driver when parking. Like other X-models of BMW, X1 also offers impeccable security. The special structure of the body provides maximum safety and availability of air bags front, side and passenger’s heads is a guarantee that they will not suffer serious, even in severe accidents. The car has a system Dynamic Stability Control, Dynamic Traction Control and capable of being fitted with Performance Control. Thanks to technology can predict contingencies and supported perfectly tuned suspension system, engine control and brakes to cope with them seamlessly.
Depending on the modification, standard equipment is different by offering a very wide range of optional extras, including different types of packages, wheels, upholstery, utilities and multimedia systems. Available to clients are also several service packages, ensuring maintenance of the car for a certain period of time or mileage. The price of the X1 is quite high, but remember that it is a model of the brand BMW, which currently has no real competition and is not comparable to any other car. Even if similar patterns emerge main rivals, Mercedes and Audi, then be sure that their prices will be lower. Although classified as sub-compact SUV, BMW X1 is not at all small and provides enough space for five people, while in the hold could easily fit a medium size load. When you drive the car, observe other road users on high and have excellent ing, which is typical for most SUV models. Our conclusion is that if you look high compact SUV class, with excellent off-road capabilities and perfect security, which can use both in town and a long time, the BMW X1 is the right choice. Do not forget to order and another package to give your car more attractive appearance.

Opel Astra review

Ivan Yordanov — Mon, 05 Apr 2010 04:41:00 +0000

Although we intend during the winter to conduct tests only SUV models, we decided to make an exception. The reason for it is that the Bulgarian market was introduced to the new Opel Astra and take advantage of the opportunity to have one of the first modification tested diesel 1.7 CDTI (125 h.p.).
History
Astra is the name first appeared in 1979. When the British division of Opel, Vauxhall, renamed it the model Kadett, which was sold in Britain. In 1991. by GM decided to change the name of himself and Opel Kadett, stop by to say Astra. The history of compact cars the company began back in 1936. When the light goes Olympia Kadett, which means that the new Astra is the culmination of 70 years and ten generations of evolution model. The latest generation Astra was introduced in some European markets late last year and recently has been available in Bulgaria. The model follows the design style of the Insignia, Opel as it introduces new standards in the compact class in terms of technology and innovation.
Exterior
The design of the car is a fresh interpretation of the new design philosophy of Opel. Overall appearance of the Astra impresses with its forms, but most definitely a catchy front. The upper grille is of small size and stand proudly on her new logo of Opel, until the emphasis on the larger lower air opening. Lamps resemble eagle eyes and are surrounded by daytime running lights, which in turn are pinnate form. The proof of the attractive appearance of the new Opel Astra came when trying to reverse out of parking lot behind the car and stood a man of apparent age 65-70 years. After the man did not budge from there for 2-3 minutes, I decided to go down and ask him if I could help him with something he answered the question: “Is this new car, where she advertised?. Positive response when he heard the man nodded approvingly, his head and wished me: “With it going to health”.
Interior
The interior of the new Astra is a style and appearance, and again is strongly influenced by that of the Insignia. Audacious dynamic forms and quality materials create the impression that you are in a luxury car rather than a compact. The interior designers have stressed some of the bent profile of passengers pinnate dashboard, overflowing into door panels, which is determined by them as “hot hug establishing friendly and cozy atmosphere in the interior. Ergonomic sport seats are only in the compact class, earned the prestigious mark of approval by the independent experts on ergonomics and doctors from the organization Action Gesunder Rucken eV (The German association for promoting healthy development in the back, known by the abbreviation AGR).
Engines
The new Opel Astra is available with eight engine (four petrol and four diesel). They are more economical and more efficient than its predecessor aggregates, paying on average 12 percent less CO2 emissions. CDTI diesel engines with capacities between 95 and 160 h.p., and are equipped with multiple direct injection and common-rail diesel particulate filter. Fuel consumption at all is a 5.0l/100km. mileage and CO2 emissions are different in 129gr/km. The most attractive modification in terms of fuel economy and ecology is ecoFLEX, which will be available by spring. It uses the 1.3 CDTI engine with a power 95 h.p., and the average fuel consumption is 4.3l/100km. But only discharges CO2 emissions 109gr/km.
In Opel petrol units adhere to the ideology for the introduction of smaller but more efficient engines, which in this case are 1.4 and 1.6 liter with air and forced turbo whose capacities are from 100 to 180k.s. The old 1.8-liter has been replaced by the 1.4 Turbo, which is identical 140 h.p. power, but its average fuel consumption is 5.9l/100km. Which is almost 18% less.
Technology
In the new Astra integrated technologies that have proved their worth in the Insignia, which are unique to the compact class and contribute to the hitherto unknown feeling in it. The model has a so-called mechatronic chassis system with FlexRide, allowing three drive modes (Standard, Sport and Tour) and adapted to the style and habits of the driver. Opel Astra boasts the most advanced lighting system in its class - Advanced Forward Lighting (AFL +). Technology has nine different modes by changing the intensity and the beam spot, depending on the driving situation and road conditions. Opel Eye camcorder detects road signs and signals if the driver leaves the lane. Unfortunately, this technology is not available for Bulgaria. FlexFloor does a very practical system of baggage to facilitate the transport of various types and sizes of cargo, such as the floor is removable and can be located on three levels.
Security
In terms of security the new Astra is again no coincidence categorical and received the maximum 5 stars crash-tests of Euro NCAP. Compared with its predecessor, the car is 71 mm. longer wheelbase, and front and rear monitors have increased by 56 and 70 mm. All this has led to greater stability on the road and better active safety. The body structure has become significantly less healthy than that which led to greater stability with 43 percent in torsion and 10% yield is also improved vehicle dynamics and reduced noise and vibration inside. Opel engineers are thinking not only about the safety of passengers but also for that of pedestrians. Intelligent bumpers have the ability to soften the blows, limiting the damage on pedestrians and of course save costly repairs.
Conclusion
Opel Astra has always been among the most popular models sold in the compact class, but with hand on heart I can say that its new generation definitely raises the bar over its competitors in every respect. Overall, the crisis reflects badly on the manufacturers, but ultimately customers will benefit from this, as companies do their best to win them. Such is the case here with the Opel, which has decided the price of the new Astra has slightly increased compared with the previous generation, despite the significantly higher standard equipment and more efficient engines. I was very surprised that the car attracted the attention of people on the streets as though it is well known to us all compact Astra, but definitely new vision of the Opel models have a strong impact. Moreover, human curiosity can not fail to understand what the car when seen against himself catching his “eyes”.
The test car
The car, sat behind the steering wheel which is a modification of the Astra Cosmo 1.7 CDTI, power 125 h.p. The price of 24 987 EUR particular vehicle at first glance is a little scary for a compact model, but when you see a long list of extras you’ll find that it does not. Besides the standard equipment for the model, the test car has all the essential features and technologies mentioned in the article, except for the Opel Eye, which, as already mentioned is not available for the Bulgarian market. Seats warm up quickly and the system for warming the passenger compartment is ideal for cold weather, especially when your car all night, stood outside and attractive 18-inch alloy wheels attract glances from afar. The system does maximum parking maneuvers easier, even for inexperienced drivers.
1.7-liter engine that produces power 125 h.p. and a maximum torque of 280Nm. available in 2 300 rev/min. The car is quite nimble. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h for 11.5 sec going for. and the maximum speed reached 195 km/h, while average fuel consumption is 4.7l/100km. mileage as that of the modification and 1.7 CDTI, power 110 h.p.
Although I have 11 years experience behind the wheel and more than 300 000 with any mileage cars can be said that initially the new Opel Astra “I’m not listening.” With each kilometer, however, the car seemed to be “connecting” to me, until he became as a whole and its fair to say I don ‘t be returned, but I’m sure our paths will cross again. It turned out that the reason for this behavior is adaptive to the driving style suspension, like a driver before I definitely have not had a similar style and habits.

Ivan Yordanov — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 09:07:01 +0000

The crazy German tuner Manhart Racing released pictures and information about its version of the BMW M3 Coupe, which has 655 h.p., accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h for 3.7 sec and developed over 350 km/h. Propelling tuning is available in three stages. The first is adding a small compressor upside pressure to 0.35 bar, thanks to a standard power 420 h.p. increased to 515 h.p. In the stage two pressure reaches 0.50 bar, and the growing power of 585k.s. In the last ASA compressor is added, increasing pressure to 0.67 bar and the exhaust system with larger pipes and two racing catalytic converters. From Manhart Racing does not mention anything about it, but one of the photos seen the inscription on the G-Power engine, which leads us to believe that their colleagues have helped the project. Note that the G-Power also offers package BMW M3 Coupe, increasing power to 600k.s., which uses the same ASA compressor. Experts from Manhart Racing cars are equipped with more 20-inch black wheels BBS, wearing tires Continental, and more powerful braking.

Ivan Yordanov — Thu, 01 Apr 2010 09:07:30 +0000

After last week by Opel released a teaser of its new Concept Flextreme GT / E, now the company spread pictures and detailed vehicle information. As already mentioned, the concept will be on display in Geneva with her Opel aims to demonstrate the types of future models of the company and strive for even greater penetration in green technologies. Opel Flextreme GT / E with dimensions 4 762 mm length, 1 871 mm width and 1 308 mm height, and its wheelbase is 2 900 mm. The car boasts an extremely low weight, thanks to its applied in making composites, as the company said that it is 40% less than possible if they had used standard parts. Among the prominent external features of the study are low and wide stance, aliform layout of the front and rear lights feature shaped grille and front, rear drift forms of side columns and muscular, flowing forms of bodywork. One of the most remarkable features of the concept is its coefficient of drag, which is only 0.22. The car has a special aerodynamic vertical panels at speeds above 50 km/h. Jumping out of the vents in the rear of the arches and direct air flow around the corners of the body, helping to further reduce the cross-flow eddies. Concept Flextreme GT / E is equipped with 120-kilovatov electric motor whose torque is 370 Nm. But it required energy is supplied by a set of lithium-ion batteries located under the floor and rear seats. Energy in them is sufficient to elapse 60 km mileage.
When the energy in batteries is reduced, aid comes a small 1.4-liter internal combustion engine performing a function of power generator, which increases the range to over 500 km. Opel Flextreme GT / E accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h for less than 9 sec and can develop up to 200 km/h.

Audi e-Tron

Ivan Yordanov — Sun, 31 Jan 2010 20:37:47 +0000

Already announced that an electric supercar Audi e-Tron, which was presented at the exhibition in Frankfurt will go into mass production in 2012. But the German company decided to show us yet another concept with that name. As implied by its name, e-Tron Detroit, it debuted at the exhibition launch yesterday in the American city. The electric car with dimensions 3 920 mm length, 1 780 mm width and 1 220 mm height, which means that its dimensions are much more compact than those of the first concept. The weight of e-Tron 1 350 kg or 250 kilograms with objectives. lower than that debuted on the Frankfurt e-Tron, which is due in addition to its small size and extremely lightweight body and structure achieved through the use of composite materials such as aluminum, carbon fiber and fiberglass. Audi e-Tron Detroit is different from the previous concept and the number of motors. Unlike the first in which were four, the new prototype has only two, with a total power 204k.s. and have 2 maximum torque 650Nm. allowing the car to accelerate from 0-100 km/h for 5.9 sec while the maximum speed limit is again at about 200 kilometers per hour
Both electrical unit of e-Tron Detroit are located on the rear axle of the vehicle, the energy supplied to them by a set of lithium-ion batteries located in the floor between the center of gravity of the passenger compartment and the rear axle. Batteries are loaded in a standard contact for 11 hours or specialized station with voltage 400V for 2 hours, and they are chock full vehicle can travel a distance of 250 kilometers. Overall, Audi e-Tron Detroit should design lines of its big brother, but rather observed differences in the layout of the lights and the rear of the car. Moreover, the new concept in wheel arches seem more prominent, which is quite normal to the compact size and the presence of 19-inch wheels. Interiors of both cars are almost identical, with the new equipment once again present a prototype communication system Car-to-X, allowing vehicles to communicate with each other. It also informs the driver of a road accident in the area, availability of parking, congestion and may make such a route using the navigation system that can minimize energy consumption.
