Subaru Forester Boxer engine with the configuration, and the driving 4WD
Symmetrical All Wheel Drive is more stable when asked to maneuver.

There are 2 options automatic transmission and sport (manual). To our D is very responsive engine performance. Turbo technology plays when stepping on the engine turns at 2000 rpm. Gearshift was smooth from 1 to the upper teeth. There are 4 speed automatic.

If you slide the lever to the right you can raise or lower the gear by moving the lever to position + or -. There are 4 speed, which you definitely can feel the machine working more responsive. And for the suspension, front and rear suspension character capable of reducing uneven and cobblestone streets.

To the front, MacPherson strut Subaru Forester uses that have been adapted to the rally field. Conditions that allow Forester run on tracks rocks and sand. Meanwhile, to use a double wishbone rear suspension.
The technology makes the car feel comfortable. Moreover chassis Forester

Not for long, let us review a car bearing the Lions are coming from Europe. In terms of design, no doubt, Peugeot 3008 does contain elements that suggest stylish Peugeot 3008 is the birth of Europe. This car presents different shades when seen from front, side and rear.
Grille design that opened wide, like a lion ready to pounce on its prey. But it only serves to smooth the wind into the machine cabin. Enhanced grille design with black accents. From the front, such as not using a car bumper. But still solid.
If viewed from the side, impressed Peugeot 3008 round. Cars like holding something in her ass. While from behind, you're not going to think that 3008 is the crossover. But again it was only European style.
Entered the passenger cabin, eyes wide to the front. Areas to watch out for any black spots well. Opinion that since the adoption of wide-open windshield. You like standing in front of the inside of a city bus.

Meanwhile, there is a divider in the middle or called console. It turned out that in addition to the slick design also functioned as a cool box. Just open the lid, you can keep the beverage to remain fresh.
Interior Peugeot 3008 were myriad. Just look, from the CD, Audio Aux ins and other compartments to pamper users. Entertainment features that you can operate via a lever located behind the steering wheel to the right.
In addition there are cruise control located on the left side of the wheel. From behind the wheel, you can also adjust the speedometer lights. And rear passengers do not have to worry about overheating.

Peugeot has set an additional blower is placed in the center console. Baggage can be arranged as congenital. Could be 50 liters, 100 liters to 150 liters.
Even twisted the ignition key to On. Engine capacity of 1598 cc 16 Valve VVT EP6CDT turbocharger capable of producing power 156PS at 5800 rpm and torque of 20nm at 1400 rpm sounds fine.

In the center console, you can customize the i-drive option. There are D, F with the shift stick shift forward and back ("+" and "-") with 6 speed.
And S for you who want to experience a more responsive engine. There is also a snow mode choice. To run, you simply step on the brake and put the lever in D. After that gas alone without the need to release the hand brake. Because of a computer to read if the machine requires energy to the road. Easy is not it?

The engine is very responsive unlike crossover machine classmates from Japan. When asked to racing, Peugeot quite steady. Up to speed 170 km / h, Peugeot 3008 remain on track.
For safety features, Peugeot applied ABS, EBD, EBA, ESP and 6 airbags in the passenger cabin.
Character suspension is a little hard but the car still does not remove the strange symptoms. However, unfortunately when asked to maneuver to the left and right of the car is a little heavy.
And one of the highlights of Peugeot 3008, when looking at the indicator panel gasoline, Peugeot average drink 1 liter of petrol for a distance of 8.8 kilometers.

Hotly-Anticipated New 2012 Cars - Hyundai Veloster
2012 Hyundai Veloster – It’s a cross between a coupe and hatchback in compact form, with the fuel economy of a sporty hybrid (Hyundai says up to 40 mpg highway), and the 2012 Hyundai Veloster is just getting started. Power comes from a direct injected 138-horsepower 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine mated with either a six-speed dual-clutch automated manual gearbox or six-speed manual transmission. Lighter than a MINI Cooper, Hyundai’s Veloster should be a hoot to drive. Get more information by checking out the Veloster preview and Detroit Auto Show Veloster quick look.

Hyundai Kia Overtakes Ford, While G.M. Threatens Toyota in 2010 Global Sales
High placement on the global best-seller list may not have the same immediacy for vehicles as it does for books, but it brings bragging rights and probably influences sales to some degree.
The biggest global-sales story of 2010 may be the Hyundai Kia Automotive Group, which overtook Ford — despite the latter’s string of profitable quarters — for fourth place by a margin of more than 400,000 vehicles. In 2009, Ford topped the Korean automaker by about 40,000 vehicles.
Another switch found Nissan besting Honda and Peugeot, a year after both makers outsold Nissan. Similarly, Renault, which had trailed Suzuki, overtook it in 2010.
Volkswagen held onto its No. 3 spot with sales of 7.14 million, an improvement of more than one million over 2009. But VW would have been shut out of the top three if the Renault-Nissan sales figures — which, including Lada, totaled 7.28 million — had been reported as one. Combined, Fiat and Chrysler sales would have put their relatively new alliance at No. 9.
For many years, General Motors held the top spot, but Toyota surpassed the American automaker in 2008. In 2009, Toyota solidly trounced G.M., recording 7.2 million global sales to G.M.’s 6.4 million, but in 2010 G.M. made up ground as Toyota suffered from recalls and bad publicity. G.M., for its part, benefited from a government infusion of cash and an improving United States auto market. Toyota eked out its win, topping G.M. by about 30,000 units.

The real reason Jimmie Johnson isn't going to run INDYCAR


In last Friday’s Indianapolis Star, Curt Cavin reported in his weekly pit pass column that reigning five time Sprint Cup Champion Jimmie Johnson had declared he was no longer interested in running the Indy 500. Johnson had previously told INDYCAR CEO Randy Bernard that he was interested, after Bernard spoke with him at Tony Stewart’s Prelude to the dream race at Eldora Speedway.
After the meeting at Eldora Speedway, rumors floated for sometime that Johnson and Kasey Kahne were interested in running the Indy 500, as early as 2011. Robin Miller floated teasers throughout his weekly mailbag that Johnson and Kahne were VERY INTERESTED, he even went as far to say that Johnson needed approval from Lowes and his wife and it was a done deal. The Indianapolis Motor Speedway even played a part in this, as the start time for the 2011 Indy 500 was TBD during the State of INDYCAR address on January 11th, as rumors had the start time going to 11 A.M. EST if Johnson and Kahne committed.
All of this came to screeching halt last Friday, when Cavin reported Johnsons decision via his pit pass article, which begs the question, why did Johnson decide to back out? Johnson grew up a huge Rick Mears fan, has devoured NASCAR’s top level the past five years, and has said that running the Indy 500 was always a dream of his.
His wife won’t let him? He has a kid? GM wasn’t involved the past eight years? BULLS**T
I don’t buy any of it, and the reason is represented in one acronym called NASCAR.
You're telling me that NASCAR is going to let their five time defending champion go off and run the Indy 500 and pull fans away from their Coke 600 that same day? How many people have seen Jimmie Johnson run the Coke 600? Plenty. How many have seen him run the Indy 500? You get the idea.
You're telling me that NASCAR is going to let their five time champ go run an IndyCar after watching what happened to Mike Conway last year on the lap of the Indy 500? Johnson breaks his back and is out for three months and NASCAR is missing one of their top stars and defending champ. NASCAR wants Johnson to be dethroned on the last lap of the last race of the season, not by wrecking an IndyCar in the middle of the season.
You're telling me NASCAR wants its drivers building up other series and boosting T.V. ratings for events that are direct competitors of NASCAR?
The answer to all three is NO, NO, and NO.
Here is what happened sometime between the time Bernard talked to Johnson at Eldora. NASCAR (Brian France) got word of what was conspiring with Johnson and Kahne, and immediately goes to Rick Hendrick, Johnsons team owner. NASCAR tells Hendrick to intervene on this situation and make it clear to Johnson he isn’t going to run the Indy 500. Hendrick tells Johnson, and Johnson asks the question "How do I say this to the media?" Well who is the easiest person to blame this on without it looking bad on NASCAR/Hendrick/Lowes etc, well his wife of course. You think she cares that she took the fall for this? NOT AT ALL.
So there you go, figure it out in so many words, NASCAR stepped in and said to Hendrick, take care of this situation because its not happening.
Jimmie Johnson won’t run the Indy 500, is it that big of a deal?
Well to him, not really, he’ll win another Sprint Cup Championship this year and collect more money and have more kids, the Indy 500 will fade from his memory.
Kasey Kahne? Well we heard he doesn’t answer to anyone and that he’ll do what he wants. Lets just assume then that NASCAR hasn’t talked to Team Red Bull yet, or just hasn’t set up another meeting with Hendrick to tell him that his driver in 2012 won’t be doing the Indy 500 either.

This motorcycle has a capacity of 1293 cc engine with a ratio of Bore x stroke 80 mm x 64.3 mm. For the type of engine That Is a water-cooled 4-stroke in-line four-cylinder, four valves per cylinder, two overhead camshafts, dry sump lubrication.

The BMW K 1300 GT.
Gran Tourismo - or in the case of the BMW K 1300 GT quite simply one of the fastest movers around. It opens up a new era in the timing of long distances. Nonetheless: impressive though the average travel times may be on this machine, its performance is also fascinating at low speeds, for example after a hairpin bend. This is because at engine speeds you operate in more than 80% of the time on the road – i.e. the lower and middle ranges – this engine adds something you can feel instantly: 99 lb/ft from 1,293 cc. No ifs or buts. And 160 hp for the three-lane motorway. The fact that this in-line 4-cylinder is very low-key when it comes to fuel consumption and exhaust emissions makes fast travel even more pleasing. And it also demonstrates once again how modern engines ought to be built.
The success formula GT is the sum of many intelligent details: top ergonomics - both at front and rear, exemplary aerodynamics and weather protection, safety (ABS as standard, ASC as an option) which sets standards. And a level of comfort which enables relaxed, supreme travel. Then there is a high-precision chassis with a low centre of gravity, as well as optional ESA II to adapt the chassis mode at the press of a button. So here’s a tip: save yourself the effort of looking for an alternative. Get into gear right away.

2010 Audi A3 Best Gallery
A brand new generation of Audi’s premium compact, the A3 will be offered at the end of 2010. This car is intended to become the most attractive vehicle in the segment and will be offered in at least three different body types.
The first new A3 to go in production will be a 3-door sports hatch with a very dynamic line and an ascendant profile. The front will be even more dynamic than it currently is, and the rear will offer an inclined window. The other two will be a 5-door sedan and a convertible.
LEDs will be included in the front lights for daytime use, in the side mirrors and also in the rear as braking lights. The lateral protection strips will be eliminated for a cleaner design. The wheelbase will be slightly increased and the car will also be widened.
New petrol FSI and diesel TDI engines will be offered matched with brand-new gearboxes including a 7-gears dual clutch DSG transmission. A future S3 top model equipped with a turbo engine is expected to offer up to 300 bhp. Also not confirmed, an RS3 might also be possible.

Inside information points that the next generation A3 will also offer hybrid propulsion, test mules from Audi and Volkswagen being currently in tests. The development of the hybrid models is less likely to be ready until 2010; therefore they will not be available at the initial launch of the A3. But they are expected to represent a key element in the popularity of the future model, offering the Audi performance with a low fuel consumption and significantly reduced pollution.

First generatio
Planned for production from 1993 under the control of Matthias Müller,[citation needed] the original A3 (or Typ 8L) was introduced in the European market in 1996, marking Audi's return to the lower market segments since the demise of the Audi 50. This was the first Volkswagen Group model to use the "PQ34" or "A4" platform, bearing a natural close resemblance to its contemporary, the Volkswagen Golf Mk4. The car was initially available only with a three-door hatchback body, in order to present a more sporty image than the Golf, in both front- and four-wheel drive. All engines were an inline four-cylinder configuration, and were transversely mounted. After the A4, the Audi A3 was the second model in the Audi lineup to use five valves per cylinder
