At the rear, the distinctive character of the Nissan X-Trail of vertical lights were upgraded to incorporate the technology of LED headlamps and brake light, improving fuel economy, visibility and therefore safety. The turn signal is incorporated into the lower portion of the set of light, with the use of brake lights / outside it.

No more outside sheet metal way from the pedestrians to radical and interior looks just like other Ford models. If the sport model of the new Ford Edge is only about a week. <span><a name='more'></a></span>So you are less polluted as the previous task in the vehicle the first impression, so you know that you enjoy the ride. There are however some things quite disappointing, this is not much like car such as a car entertainment. Gradually though the contact was overshadowed by the great advantages of the saggy system response and confusing design with Ford. It’s just my opinion for a valuable Ford Edge Sport review.<p></p><p>Ford Edge has some variants and have unique properties. Ford Edge crossover is today available in SE, SEL, limited and sport trim. The sport has a L v-6 edge 305 spins hp and 280 lb-ft of torque. A standard six-speed automatic transmission for the sport, but also a manual shift control. All versions come standard with front-wheel drive and all, but the SE can be equipped with all-wheel drive.</p><p>Ford Edge Sport Review on the front seats. It provides excellent support on long trips. Although some drivers head restraints is inconvenient, because it is positioned forward inclined. In the rear outboard motors can provide a good and free disk space for the passengers, travel however that if you a double panel “Vista roof” order option. In addition the Center place for short trips just because its back wall.</p><p>Without an elevator power gate Ford Edge Sport behind Liège can difficult for short drivers to close, but capacity is 32 cubic feet rear seats in use. Close to the second row to open on the cargo bed is not flat and the maximum capacity of 69 cubes. This is lighter than the Nissan Murano, but less than the Toyota RAV4 or a large crossover as traverse Chevy or Ford Flex. Sports edge has more power and manual shift mode for the transfer, but the profits that most denied his power of heavier curb weight. This is perfectly reasonable for this unique car. Ford Edge can sport for all, because it is mass produced, but the cars and SUVs would another alternative for you and you should try it before you decide to buy one.</p><div><br /></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6075832098392863502.post-85086153225742525212021-08-17T08:00:00.003-07:002023-07-22T20:35:23.469-07:00Nissan Qashqai<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiFX453sdfk9RSh05NNcfmysL2BYDu0rK4QRzBQllw_pR1gJ17CX12gD0c_euiBNi0sVCOo9w1lQSu9CZXtNeO0rzE_Fn0Dw7MZ5jPaERKdv57RXQ2bXzURsXrhE2OH1iIVwTX-A9Dfba9IsC5z3s3ewlBY52TyxjCzrYFvr3_bGkYa_Y8Gn56S9p9e5w=s640" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="384" data-original-width="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiFX453sdfk9RSh05NNcfmysL2BYDu0rK4QRzBQllw_pR1gJ17CX12gD0c_euiBNi0sVCOo9w1lQSu9CZXtNeO0rzE_Fn0Dw7MZ5jPaERKdv57RXQ2bXzURsXrhE2OH1iIVwTX-A9Dfba9IsC5z3s3ewlBY52TyxjCzrYFvr3_bGkYa_Y8Gn56S9p9e5w=s16000" /></a></div><br />Nissan Qashqai became the new hot topic among Nissan fans.

If you are a driver, then you must be aware that accidents occur very often on the roads. So insuring yourself and your car is very important. Car insurance protects your car in case something unfortunate happens.<span><a name='more'></a></span><p></p><p>Thus, it is very important for you to purchase an adequate amount of coverage instead of opting for a cheap insurance policy. However, this does not mean that you will need to pay extremely high premiums. You can opt for affordable car insurance policies provided you know how to choose them.</p><p><b>Some ways in which you can save money on your car insurance are as follows.</b></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Make comparisons before buying: You should be aware of the fact that prices of these policies vary from company to company. So it is important that you make comparisons before buying. To do this find out the minimum amount of insurance that you must have and then take the quotes from at least three different companies. Look for the company’s reputation as well. This will help you understand if the company provides with good customer service or not.</li><li>Purchase a low profile car: It is very natural that cars that have a very high theft rate and are very expensive when it comes to repair will have high insurance cost. So it is important that before buying a car you should consider how much will be your insurance cost. Do not buy a very high profile car as that could cost you a lot on insurance premium. You must also consider that you purchase a car that has a good safety system. This will help reduce the premiums on your car insurance policy.</li><li>Ask for multi policy discounts: In some cases the insurers provide you with discounts if you purchase more than one policy from them. So ask your insurer if he or she will provide you with such discounts. If so, then you can buy your home and car insurance policies from the same insurer and get discounts on your car insurance.</li></ul><p></p><div><br /></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6075832098392863502.post-49297788086970235912021-06-20T21:07:00.007-07:002023-07-22T20:35:38.629-07:00New Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Limited Edition Carbon Model<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-oHMyAqDVepw/YRygO0cldNI/AAAAAAAAAGk/dLlzJ44pS1wBcrGHF5brbPd3zGdreeH_gCLcBGAsYHQ/s640/Corvette%2BZ06%2BLimited%2BEdition.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="383" data-original-width="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-oHMyAqDVepw/YRygO0cldNI/AAAAAAAAAGk/dLlzJ44pS1wBcrGHF5brbPd3zGdreeH_gCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/Corvette%2BZ06%2BLimited%2BEdition.jpg" /></a></div><br />When Corvette released the Z06 in 2006, they gave consumers a bridge to connect with the racing world. The ZR1 even got production cars closer to racing. Tract to street tradition is further strengthened this year when Chevrolet releases the Limited Edition Corvette Z06 Carbon.<span><a name='more'></a></span><p></p><p>The limited edition Corvette is a celebration of 50 years of memory when the car first joined the 24-hour race in Le Mans. The new Corvette is a combo of the 7.0L V8 LS7 of the Z06 and the brake package and suspension setup of the ZR1. The peak output is still pegged at 505 horsepower.</p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Carbon Limited Edition</h3><p>The aggressive stance of the car can be attributed to the 20 inch rear and 19 inch front wheels hugged by PS2 Michelin tires. Carbon ceramic brakes from Brembo make sure you can stop on time. The suspension employs a Magnetic Selective Ride Control. Completing the package are carbon fiber elements to accessorize the car.</p><p>Consumers who want to get mechanical upgrades can get the performance package for Z07. When you get the upgrade, you will have your 2011 Z06 pimped with all the chassis upgrades and the new wheels.</p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Front Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Carbon Limited Edition</h3><p>Another carbon package for your regular Z06 is the CFZ Z06 which will give it carbon fiber rockers, roof panel, splitter, and spoiler (by the way, word on the street is that Hertz is planning to use some of these carbon fiber items on their next-gen Corvette ZHZ Convertible). You can get these with or without the Z07 package.</p><p>The Corvette Z06 Carbon Limited Edition upgrades will be rolling out this summer. By the way, there will only be two colors for this setup, you can get Supersonic Blue or Inferno Orange.</p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6075832098392863502.post-14456238428982531722021-06-07T01:56:00.004-07:002023-07-22T20:35:52.261-07:00Porsche Carrera GT Phenomenal 600+ Bhp Exotic Supercar<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VqID7UavA_0/YRyfh19qfRI/AAAAAAAAAGc/dKsOB7mYPTMqmdr340P8cWAWR8LZ2f8XgCLcBGAsYHQ/s640/Porsche%2BCarrera%2BGT.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="384" data-original-width="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VqID7UavA_0/YRyfh19qfRI/AAAAAAAAAGc/dKsOB7mYPTMqmdr340P8cWAWR8LZ2f8XgCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/Porsche%2BCarrera%2BGT.jpg" /></a></div><br />A street-legal racer best sums up the Porsche Carrera GT, now being produced in limited numbers. It is based on a car built to race in the Le Mans 24 hour race, but the project was cancelled, so here we have a production version - more powerful and faster than the prototype, with a maximum speed of 205 mph!<span><a name='more'></a></span><p></p><p>Imagine it. Here you are set for your first drive in the Carrera GT, and you've wisely decided to try it on a track. They've already warned you that the lack of a conventional flywheel makes starts a little tricky, so you don't mess about. You get the revs up to about 3,000, let the clutch in, and off you hurtle. No wheel spin thanks to traction control - and the massive rear tires, which are over a foot wide, transmit all that power to the road. Three seconds later, you're doing 50 mph, and you grab the gear level and pull it back to second. Before long you've snarled your way up to about 8,400 rpm and just over 80 mph, and you snick into third.</p><h3 style="text-align: left;">V-10 engine will feel as if power is unlimited</h3><p>The track is still straight ahead, fortunately, so you push your foot down again, and feel the lusty V-10 engine take you up past the ton to about 110 so far you've been driving for about 10 seconds! You try one more gear, feeling the adrenaline pumping, and let 570 bhp push you forward yet again, until you see the speed build up to over 145 mph.</p><p>Suddenly a corner comes up. You over-react and slam on the brakes hard. No dramas. They're so powerful, these ceramic discs, that you've slowed too much for the corner.</p><p>It is easy to accelerate through the corner, and the car just sticks to the road. Poor road surfaces, you find later are not so kind to the Carrera GT it doesn't like them. But on smooth surfaces, you can manage a controlled rear end slide - and know instinctively that this is a maneuver for race tracks only.</p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Masses of control at 'normal' cornering speeds</h3><p>Now, there's a long straight, and soon you're changing from third, through fourth to fifth and life gets interesting as the speedo registers over 150 mph the speed at which the governor cuts in on so many cars. Not here. At 170 mph you push into sixth, and watch the end of the straight and the speedo. Just as you're nudging toward 200 mph, and the acceleration has lost all it's bite, you start to brake for the fast s-bends, and do a bit better this time, swishing through completely under control at the sort of speed where dramas occur for normal cars, but not for this one. Then there's a short straight, a fast curve and into the pits.</p><p>You know that this is going to be a mighty exciting and 'risky' car to drive on the road not because it's unsafe, of course. It's risky because of the sheer power which means that you're always going faster than you intend - not 10 or 20 mph but 30-50 mph! Also risky in that unless you can drive it in Germany and a few other deserted places, the police will be on to you before you get into third gear! To give you some idea, at 200 mph, you'll cover about 300 ft in the time it takes to put your foot on the brake pedal, let alone slow down.</p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Advanced technology just like a Grand Prix car</h3><p>Still, this Porsche Carrera GT is a masterful vehicle for all that. How does it do it?</p><p>With really new and advanced technology, not just in the use of a carbon fiber composite body/chassis but in many details as well. Heart of the car is the 5.7 liter V-10 engine, which is slightly larger than the prototype. To give plenty of revs, the bore is much bigger than the stroke, and output is a staggering 612 bhp at 8,000 rpm without turbocharging. This is more power than the engine of the 2003 Le Mans 24 hour race; the Bentley 8 managed on about 500 bhp.</p><p>To get this power and engine speed reliably, Porsche engineers have used titanium for the engine connecting rods it's very light and strong, and is used on fully-fledged racing engines, and on some Honda engines.</p><p>Unusually in a road car, but common in a racing car, the engine forms part of the chassis, stiffening the rear of the composite frame. It sits very low in the frame, so the Porsche engineers had to come up with a two-place clutch and do away with the flywheel - the input shaft to the six-speed gearbox acts as a light flywheel.</p><p>When many racing car and quite a few supercars have automatic or semi-automatic sequential gearboxes, it is a surprise to find that Porsche has stuck with a manual gearbox, even though the box is completely new. Fine for racing, but with the limited speeds you use on the road, the sixth speed is a bit of a bore I guess in this car you'd hardly use it on the road.</p><p>The ceramic disc pads are a definite advance fade free from 200 mph, shorter stopping distances, and they reduce unspring weight. But expensive, which is why they are only on supercars and upwards at present and only a few of those.</p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Amazingly stiff body tub</h3><p>Without doubt, the most remarkable feature of the car is the body structure which is made up of many different pieces of carbon fiber and resin to produce an immensely strong and rigid tub, in which the driver and passenger sit, and which also houses the Grand Prix type suspension. A stunning piece of engineering.</p><p>To keep the wheels at the right angle to the road, there are double wishbones front and rear, acting through push rods to the centrally mounted springs, and the steering is power assisted. To suit the road, it is quite low geared, with several turns lock to lock.</p><p>With all that technology, the Carrera GT should be a lightweight. It weighs 3,000 lbs, which makes it less than the tiny Audi TT 3.2 liter, but about 200 lb more than the Ferrari Enzo. The Enzo has another 50 bhp on tap, should you be a real power freak!</p><p>Nevertheless, like the Enzo, Porsche Carrera GT is a car that is near a racing car as you can buy. Porsche plans to build 1,500, and as about 1,200 have already been ordered, they will certainly hit that target.</p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6075832098392863502.post-37244241685872059392021-03-17T00:33:00.031-07:002023-07-22T20:36:42.019-07:00Toyota Agya's Engine And Features That Attractive For Consumers<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-v3SfQ-Q_UWA/YM1pSxm29MI/AAAAAAAAAEk/RjqH6TRzBTEpDmdW16HYrfZPxzb6kyk_ACLcBGAsYHQ/s640/Toyota%2BAgya.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="384" data-original-width="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-v3SfQ-Q_UWA/YM1pSxm29MI/AAAAAAAAAEk/RjqH6TRzBTEpDmdW16HYrfZPxzb6kyk_ACLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/Toyota%2BAgya.jpg" /></a></div><br />Toyota Astra Motor regarding the implementation of the LCGC program for vehicle products presents the New Toyota Agya which was launched for the first time.This city car type is able to compete with several cars of the same type from different brands. <span><a name='more'></a></span>By presenting certain engines and features tempting for consumers, and the price of this Toyota Agya is very affordable.<p></p><p>Although the price of the Toyota Agya is very affordable, this car is equipped with an exterior and interior design that is quite luxurious and not cheap.

Not only is power up by 60 bhp to 480 bhp, with much more low-speed torque than before, but the new four-wheel drive system and traction control give greater stability and traction in all conditions.<span><a name='more'></a></span><p></p><p>The Porsche 911 Turbo is a fantastic combination with the usual elegant Porsche looks. This neat supercar gets well under the 4.0 second barrier for 0-60 mph, and has a top speed of 192 mph. Wow!</p><p>Based on the 997 version of the 911, the Turbo gets the improved body and suspension that goes with the 997, but just about everything has been developed specially for the car. It even has new aluminum doors.</p><p>Subtle changes make the car look different from the old Turbo and the other 911 Carrera cars. At the front, there are two large side air scoops low down, with lamps integrated into them, and the fog lamps outboard.</p><p>The side air intakes are revised, and at the rear there is a new split spoiler which extends at speed, twin exhaust pipes of a new shape coming through the lower apron and air outlets at the sides. The wider rear track and fenders, together with the large 19 inch forged aluminum wheels help make the car look very powerful.</p><p>The Cd remains a very good 0.31 while the rear spoiler increases down force, and the revised front end results in less lift. A good example that function and form result in elegant lines.</p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Completely different response to the GT3</h3><p>Once you drive the Porsche 911 Turbo, you will find a completely different animal from the GT3, which packs a 415 bhp punch, but needs lots of revs to keep it roaring along 5,000 to 8,000 rpm. By contrast, the Turbo will hurtle you forward at about 2,500 rpm, and there is massive power up to 6,000 rpm, where it develops 480 bhp. That’s 133 bhp per liter, a very high specific output.</p><p>The 3.6 liter dry-sump engine has a very wide spread of power, with maximum torque of 457 lb ft (520 Nm) all the way from 1,950 to 5,000 rpm. This is the sort of power band you expect on an engine with a modest output, but not one producing 133 bhp per liter!</p><p>There’s more to come, in one of the features of the optional Sports Chrono Package. Choose that package and you get an over boost function. If you need extra power for a short time, such as when accelerating hard to overtake in limited space, the turbo system is allowed to give even more boost than the normal 1 bar (14.7 lb per square inch) for 10 seconds, lifting maximum torque to 501 lb ft (680 Nm) a huge amount from a 3.6 liter engine.</p><p>What’s more, since there is a new four-wheel drive system which ensures maximum torque is provided where it is needed without wheel spin, this is a very sure-footed car, capable of being driven fast where others need to tread warily owing to the danger of losing grip.</p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Turbo with variable inlet vanes</h3><p>What’s the secret? Like many turbo Porsche cars, the new one Porsche 911 has twin turbos, but it is the first high-performance gasoline engine to be equipped with turbos having variable inlet vanes. These have been used on diesels to widen the power range for 10 years or so, but the high temperatures in the exhaust of a very high-performance gasoline engine make their use difficult. Porsche has overcome this problem with the use of special high-temperature materials in the turbine and water cooling.</p><p>The inlet vanes can be rotated through a small angle in the housing, so that at low speeds, they provide small, tapered passages for the exhaust gases to go through. The result is that the gases speed up and release enough energy to provide plenty of boost.</p><p>At higher speeds, the vanes are moved so that the passages are wider, thus allowing all the gases through without creating back-pressure and reducing flow. In this way, you get the benefit of having two turbos one small and one large in the same unit. That’s how they get the wide range of power.</p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Faster acceleration with Tiptronic S</h3><p>All this means that Porsche 911 is not just very quick from 0 to 100 mph and more, but also accelerates very quickly from say, 50-80 mph held in one gear. Actually, if you want the fastest accelerating 911 Turbo get one with the Tiptronic S automatic. It may be only a five-speeder, but because the control is linked to that of the traction and four-wheel drive controls, the car accelerates faster than the manual. This is the first Porsche to do this the Turbo Tiptronic S gets to 60 mph in just 3.6 seconds, compared with 3.8 seconds for the manual box.</p><p>Of course, a close-ratio six-speed box is provided for purists - with short-throw shifting and improved synchromesh but it is the Tiptronic S which steals the thunder. Porsche has added two important features. The first prevents the box from shifting downward when you lift off as when you slow down while waiting to overtake. The second actually shifts down a gear when you lift off and put your foot on the brake, as you do when entering a bend. Clever stuff; does some things you would do yourself.</p><p>To give you the maximum performance, Porsche has built many other electronic systems into the car. There is a stability control, ABS and brake assist which keeps full brake pressure on in emergency braking PASM, which has two modes of adaptive damper control, and a new traction control for the four-wheel drive.</p><h3 style="text-align: left;">New four-wheel drive improves stability</h3><p>In the new four-wheel drive system, there is a multi-plate electro-magnetic clutch in the axle gear system for the front Porsche 911 wheels. This system was chosen over a hydraulic system which would have generated a lot of heat.</p><p>The control system measures many things including the cornering rate and acceleration, and then decides how much power to transmit to the front wheels. Of course, if wheel spin is developed at one end, more power is sent to the other end.</p><p>The system can transmit up to about 75% of the engine’s torque to the front wheels although wheel spin would set in at around 57%. If a rear wheel start to spin, a massive amount of torque can be sent to the front wheels to keep the car charging forward while remaining stable.</p><p>In fact, Porsche says this system is so good, the stability control is hardly needed. For example, at the onset of over steer, more power is sent to the front wheels. If the car starts to under steer, the power sent to the front wheels is reduced, altering the car’s weight distribution, and restoring stable cornering.</p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Big brakes and low weight</h3><p>Of course, such a car needs good brakes, and the Porsche 911 Turbo now has 13.78 in (350 mm) discs all round. Six-pot calipers and 42% larger pads improve front braking, while four-pot calipers act on the same size discs at the rear. If you want the ultimate in braking performance, you can opt for ceramic composite discs which are huge 15-inch (380 mm) diameter.</p><p>Weight is always a problem with a new model, and Porsche engineers have worked hard to keep the weight down to that of the old model. One innovation is the use of aluminum doors, which reduce weight by 31 lb (14 kg). These are unusual in that the door frames, which include many brackets and the structural members, are thin-wall pressure diecastings. These are clad in aluminum sheet.</p><p>The new car weighs 3,495 lb (1,585 kg), which is pretty good for a car with a steel body and four-wheel drive. It is a competitor for the more expensive Ferrari F430 and Lamborghini Gallardo, and the only less costly car that can close is probably the Noble M15.</p><p>So here it is; the very latest and hottest turbo, a fast-shifting auto if you want it, a new generation of four-wheel drive, with all the bells and whistles to go with it.</p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6075832098392863502.post-81944178228022372882021-03-04T21:59:00.009-08:002023-07-22T20:37:00.569-07:00Guidelines For Renting A Car When Travel<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qsUGT-5uryQ/YExoiKNvq0I/AAAAAAAAACE/gw7xPhFbv4kADIAwFzF3wxGF7vv6foJowCLcBGAsYHQ/s640/Renting%2BA%2BCar.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="384" data-original-width="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qsUGT-5uryQ/YExoiKNvq0I/AAAAAAAAACE/gw7xPhFbv4kADIAwFzF3wxGF7vv6foJowCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/Renting%2BA%2BCar.jpg" /></a></div><br />A car is already a great thing. No matter if it is on a road trip for the weekend or go on an exploratory trip across the island vacation, there is some points to consider. It is better to inform you in advance, instead of stumbling only when the car returned about preventable errors. Here are some tips to address the issue of rent a car more safely.<span><a name='more'></a></span><p></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Book early</h3><p>Car rentals are no fixed rates or a stock without end. If you want an economy car and a particular offer, or a much needed date, you’d better do it early if you do not find that there are no more units available in class and you Have to settle for something else. If you are interested to know brief information about taxi hire, you can visit Seattle Taxi Cab. <span style="white-space: pre;"> </span></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Compare prices</h3><p>Even the same type or model of car, can have large differences in rate from one company to another. In the U.S., for example, car rental companies have agreements with one or other specializing car factory if not owned by them directly.</p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Book and pay in advance</h3><p>Whether you do it online or through to travel agency, express the theme of the head and travels with a voucher for your service and payment. It Will Save temptations and “difference of interpretation” when picking up the car. Moreover, the rates you pay if you would run counter without a reservation, much more expensive. On the other hand, if you travel to the U.S. or any country in another language, will you save the shot of having to “Fritters” Defend your terms or in a language that is not yours.</p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Check the car</h3><p>If there is anything you do not like, ask for another car. Especially check the condition of the wheels, brakes, sheet metal, lights, etc. Not the first time after you pass the bill to scratch in the paint on that was before, or by lights that did not work from the first minute. Once you sign up and remove the car, no place to complain.</p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Study well the insurance</h3><p>Consider whether in your case you need to expand the minimum coverage, the staff, the companions in the car or third parties. Again, in the case of the United States, any small accident in the street with lawyers and court brings proceedings. Insurance, including legal advice is a good alternative.</p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6075832098392863502.post-8788144774487453342021-02-23T22:21:00.002-08:002023-07-22T20:37:08.382-07:00New Honda City, Not Just a New Look<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-W5tgnrU3mDg/YER-gHQ_CrI/AAAAAAAAABc/4ecUheqYHbUtSw1w2rqT9EBZXySN7HdlgCLcBGAsYHQ/s640/New%2BHonda%2BCity.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="385" data-original-width="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-W5tgnrU3mDg/YER-gHQ_CrI/AAAAAAAAABc/4ecUheqYHbUtSw1w2rqT9EBZXySN7HdlgCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/New%2BHonda%2BCity.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>The small sedan market is arguably empty of players. But amidst the thirst for a model that competes in this market, there is consistent competition between the Honda City and the Toyota Vios, despite having had a "rival" from Suzuki Ciaz who later took his leave of this compact sedan battle.<span><a name='more'></a></span><p></p><p>Honda City, is increasingly strengthening itself with what is now being done. Namely a change in appearance, aka a face lift in March 2017. Of course, this method provides some interesting new things for consumers. In addition to a sporty design with more dynamic lines and curves, the headlights and grille also show a striking difference in design compared to before.</p><p>The lights are narrower but have a firm angle, equipped with projectors with LED technology lamps, plus a Daytime Running Light with LED at the bottom of the headlight, being the main changes, which are side by side with a chrome grille with a minimalist grille.</p><p>This new grille is more sporty than the chrome stacked grille like its predecessor. In addition, the grille on the lower bumper also compensates for the sportier design of the spoiler. While the fog lamp still seems to have similarities with the previous one.</p><p>Things are a bit different when looking at this new City from the side, there are no significant changes besides the different rim motifs, as well as the rear view mirror with LED turn signal which can now be folded electrically.</p><p>The two-tone concept of the wheel circumference is still applied, like the Honda City before the face lift. However, this time it is no longer a fan model, but a diamond-cut motif and a larger rim, now 16 inches in diameter and wrapped in 185 / 55R16 tires. Whereas previously using 15-inch rims.<br />Then at the stern, there is a new difference that will appear at night, when the tail light which now uses the LED lights up brightly as a means of communication with other riders behind. While the overall design has not changed much compared to the previous model.</p><p>What's interesting, is when you enter the Honda City cabin. Although the 'face lift' frills should only focus on the 'face' appearance, in fact inside the cabin there are quite significant changes.</p><p>Changes to the dashboard are the first things that everyone who sits on the front seats will see. The AC grille has changed, as the dashboard panel is now fresher with gunmetal garnish on the left side. Then most noticeable is the 'floating' head unit which is arguably the trend in the Honda lineup here.</p><p>This 8-inch touch screen head unit replaces the old 6.1-inch version. However, there are things that are a little bumpy with this new head unit. When going to insert a CD into it, it takes some procedures that can be considered "troublesome". </p><p>The user must unlock the fastener behind the screen, so that the screen can be lifted and the CD slot can be seen and then the CD can be inserted into the slot.</p><p>It's not as easy as the head unit with a non-floating model with the CD input gap visible in front of the head unit. Just insert the CD into the slot and just press the button if you want to remove it again.<br />New air conditioner grille, distribute cool air more.</p><p>Passenger comfort in the cabin is also supported by an AC outlet for rear passengers. The outlet that transmits cool air is located at the back of the center console, and can be directed or even closed completely, when the rear passenger doesn't need it.</p><p>However, there are more things, there are things that are lacking, even though the rear seat back can be folded, it can only be done when the seat back folding lever is pulled from the trunk. So, passengers cannot pick up items from the luggage from the cabin.</p><p>Although, for the driver the facilities are quite complete. The steering wheel is equipped with tilt and telescopic steering, then adjust the seat height. This makes the various postures of the driver easily adjust the position to drive the Honda City.</p><p>Yes, that's a bit of an update to the Interior of the Honda City which is marketed in Indonesia. Somewhat different from the Thai market. In the White Elephant Country version, it is equipped with a sunroof and 6 SRS Airbags in its highest type. Meanwhile in Indonesia this is not the case. Just two airbags and without a glass roof that penetrates the sun.</p><p>However, the safety features carried by Honda City are quite good in its class. Control is maintained to be more stable with Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) which became the standard. This prevents wheel slippage and makes the car turn, when maneuvering quickly over slippery road surfaces, also guarantees better wheel traction, when accelerating on skid-prone road surfaces. </p><p>Plus, Hill Start Assist (HSA), which guarantees the car will not reverse when it will move back, after stopping on a steep incline. This is especially helpful for junior drivers with manual transmissions. Although for automatic transmission there is also this facility. </p><p>Still related to the braking system, Honda City has a Brake Override System, which prioritizes the brake function, when the brake pedal and gas pedal are pressed together. This is to anticipate a panic reaction from the driver who accidentally steps on the brake and gas pedal together. Guaranteed, the car will be ordered to stop, rather than the wheels keep turning using engine power, against the lock on the brake system. </p><p>Then, what is the performance like, does it match a sportier look? Of course you have to try it right away. The engine used by the Honda City has the largest maximum power in its class, 120 PS / 6,000 rpm with 145 Nm of torque which has been achieved at the engine motorbike of 4,600 rpm. Of course this makes this car quite fun to drive, especially when stop and go in urban traffic.</p><p>The engine, which is paired with the CVT transmission, has been “built-in” since the emergence of the City, but continues to experience improvements, until now operation can be done via paddle shift on the steering wheel, with manual mode up to 6 speed.</p><p>With the combination of engine power and transmission intelligence, the Honda City accelerates in 11 seconds, when the sprint is from rest to 100 km / hour. While the fuel consumption of the i-VTEC engine it uses is quite economical.</p><p>CVT transmission with Earth Dreams Technology, makes the engine speed quite low when cruising or driving constantly, even at medium and medium speeds. This is what makes fuel consumption efficient.<br />In addition, on the downhill road, there is no need to worry about the “barking” effect, the car will drive without being restrained. The effect of the engine brake like a manual transmission is still present in cars with this CVT transmission. Continuous use of the brakes on less steep descents can be reduced.</p><p>The engine is quite powerful in its class, also still relatively economical In the city, with an average speed of 22 km / hour, the fuel consumption is 12.6 km / liter, while when used on toll roads with an average speed of 90 km / hour the fuel consumption is 17 km / liter.</p><p>The facilities provided for the driver, namely Cruise Control, are a feature of the Honda City that no rivals in their class have. The driver can set a constant speed, so there is no need to step on the gas pedal.<br /></p><p>It's really fun, not only driving 'relaxed' with Cruise Control, when maneuvering fast, Honda City has enough suspension to make this sedan run agile and stable, but as a consequence of this increased stability, suspension swing feels harder, when the wheels meet the surface. bumpy road.</p><p>The fun of driving is reduced a little when parking. There is no assistance in the form of a parking sensor and no camera view on the head unit monitor when reversing, as if in contrast to the more modern design in this face lift version. Although of course the driver's skill when parking is preferred, so there is no need to rely on this feature. <br /></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
