Mitsubishi MIVEC combine with the U.S. & G

TOKYO, mated Mitsubishi Mitsubishi Innovative Valve Timing technology Electronic (MIVEC) to Auto Stop & Go (AS & G). The goal, to machines that use both technologies are more economical fuel consumption. According to Mitsubishi in a release, the first machine that would combine the two technologies is 4J10 capacity of 1.8 liters.
This engine will be paired on a compact SUV, RVR (name in Japan) or ASX Outlander Sport in some countries). Other models are also equipped with this technology is the Galant Fortis sedan Sport (outside of Japan called the Lancer or Lancer EX) and Galant Fortis Sportback (Lancer Sportback) 5-door hatchback. With the combination of both technologies, the three models mentioned, earlier, more efficient fuel consumption 12 percent (tested with the Japanese method).
New MIVEC
MIVEC is a time machine with the lid open and can be arranged in accordance with the workload and spins. While the U.S. & G, automotive engine technology die a few seconds the car stopped and immediately live again once the accelerator is pressed!
MIVEC technology is not new. Each manufacturer provides its own name. VTEC and Honda to name a more sophisticated version is the i-VTEC, while Toyota VVTi and VVTi-L is more sophisticated.
Well, the new Mitsubishi MIVEC assessed, it works the same concept but used VVTi-L engine single overhead camshaft (SOHC). High-lift valve setting is set continuously. Likewise, long opening, opening and closing time.
MIVEC Lama
Mitsubishi MIVEC was first used in 1992. It was used two systems. First, the system is composed difference in the level and duration of opening the valve lift in accordance with engine speed or not is not a continuous-mernus. One again, (used on the machine 4B10) system valve open-close time changed continuously.
The new MIVEC engine used in the 4J10, is gambungan two systems above. This can be done because at one mechanism could be used to alter the level of suction valve lift, which determines the time and duration of valve opening. It allows three of the diuba change simultaneously and continuously.
The result, a new MIVEC produces n ideal control valve and reduce "pumping losses" (pumping losses). This can be done by using time (timing) luntuk suction valve controlling the volume of air suction channel groove there.
Furthermore, using the new MIVEC engine SOH - weights and fewer number of components - obtained better efficiency.

AS & G
Mechanisms idle-stop destination for save fuel consumption. You do this by turning off the engine when the car stopped at a red light. This technology previously only used Mitsubishi on models with manual transmission and sold in Europe. The model uses the ASX and Lancer.

AS & G's latest, mated to a continuously variable transmission (CVT). Other changes, using a 12 volt battery is more durable and converters DC / DC (to prevent interference with audio sound systems and Navitas system when the engine is turned on).

Nissan Introduces New Generation Xtronic CVT

YOKOHAMA, today introduced the Nissan Xtronic Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) latest generation of vehicles that will be used on 2.0 and 3.5 liter engine. Further, the transmission will also be used paa hybrid cars front wheels.

Nissan judge, new teknoligi is an important step to improve the work efficiency of conventional engines (motor fuel).

Irit 10 Percent
This new Xtronic CVT can improve fuel efficiency to 10 percent compared with the CVT is used today (compared with the same vehicle). Another advantage, gear ratio can be made to 7.0 and friction is reduced to 40 percent.

Incorporate new Nissan Xtronic stretcher with Adaptive Shift Control (ASC) or the gearshift settings adjusted to the driver's style and road conditions. The result, this new transmission more responsive acceleration plus the increasingly fierce. The car is also more stable accelerated at high speed and reduce noise.

Planned, this transmission will be introduced first time in Nissan model to be marketed in the United States in 2012.
7.0 Comparison
To get a comparison of 7.0, a smaller diameter pulley shaft coupled with a belt (belt) the results of the latest engineering. Range comparison between the two pulleys are increasing but still small axial distance increments. The result, comparison of rotation of the engine displacement to the "output" transmission can reach 7.0, especially on the 2.0 liter engine. Nissan to assess this, first achieved accomplishments in the world.

Friction Down 40 percent
For this, Nissan uses a smaller oil pump. This method can be carried out for oil leaks that can occur dicegah.Tekanan oil can be deducted because of friction between the surface of the pulleys and the belt has to be reduced.

Furthermore, used oil with a special formulation, which is a low viscosity. Friction was reduced. For this, 60 percent of the oil pump components are modified.

Shift Control (ASC)
ASC constantly monitors the movements of the driver through the acceleration (pressing the gas pedal) and vehicle speed. ASC then selecting the optimal gear ratio according to the driver's working conditions. Amazingly, the driver can determine the engine speed and the speed of the car when berakseleasi.

Hybrid Cars
Nissan also considered, the new CVT technology is ideally suited for hybrid cars with front wheel motion, both in terms of cost and packaging. Combined electric motor, two new-generation Xtronic CVT clutch, lithium-ion and 2.5-liter supercharged engine, can be packaged in a compact. It is not necessary to design a special body, it can even accommodate a 3.5-liter.

Introducing the Honda CR-V in Japan

 

TOKYO, After the leaked pictures had appeared the final production late September 2011, finally officially introduced the all-new Honda CR-V in Japan. Excerpted from the website carscoop last weekend, the figure of sport utility vehicle (SUV), this seems to "leak" of the sheet-sheet promo presentation before Honda released to the market. Or was deliberately made as if the leak?!

 

Honda once said, the latest CR-V would be more "sophisticated" and dynamic than previous models. In addition, the interior is more spacious and equipped with new technology. Indeed from existing images, can not be proven Honda promises. Just visible figure of the exterior only. When compared with the emerging concept version, the end of July 2011, there were some differences.

 

The bottom of the main light for example, now equipped with an LED as a light lunch. Rim design, although still crossbar five, but now much simpler and smaller. The back has not changed much still use light design right triangle on both sides. Now the form of an additional brake light mounted on the rear roof edge, the more obvious.

 

There has been no definitive information about the engine behind the front hood. But, it is believed the engine 4-cylinder 2.4-liter petrol is still one of the flagship. Made its inaugural debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show, mid-November 2011 and the Domestic Market Japanesse version two weeks later in the event the Tokyo Motor Show, in December 2011.

Prepare Mercedes E-Class Carbon Fiber

Stuttgart, luxury carmaker Mercedes-Benz E-Class is preparing Superlight kupe car as an alternative option in the ranks of its production. Mercedes now has a CLK, SL, and CL in kupenya family.

Indeed Superlight is not the first kupe of relatives E-Class, because it is still berbedar similar variant, the E-Class Coupe. But for the Superlight, Mercedes had other plans, to reduce vehicle weight 346 kg lighter than its predecessor (1287 kg). Program "diet" is performed on the E-Class uses the lightest carbon fiber material.

As a driver, Mercedes will put a 6-cylinder engine and hybrid motor company. Consumers are also given the choice of fuel-cell hybrid variant.

E-Class 2015 will present an answer to the challenge BMW and Audi are also made ​​of plastic material model, so it has a very light weight.

China to start selling electric car

SHENZHEN, China carmaker BYD Company began selling mass-e6 electric car in China, a few days ago. This sedan is able to explore up to 300 miles once the battery and priced at 369,800 yuan or Rp515, 2 million per unit. Shenzhen City is a prime uncultivated island south of China which is the hometown of BYD.

Interestingly, according to Li Ganming, Deputy Director of the National Development and Reform Commission's Shenzhen, Shenzhen consumers will enjoy direct subsidies which the government put up by 120,000 yuan (Rp167, 1 million) deducted from the selling price. "2011, the central government issued a direct subsidy discounts nationwide and 60,000 yuan in Shenzhen incentives were multiplied by two," added Su Bo, Vice Minister of Ministry of Industry, as reported by Bloomberg.

BYD started the revolution China sales increase electric-powered cars. The Chinese government target of 1 million units of electric cars and hybrid plug-in can be sold in the country in 2015....

Attention! Radiation Cars for Sale in Japan

A number of officers checking radioactive in Japan recently had to work hard. After the events of the nuclear reactor explosion at the Fukushima Daiichi, Japan, earthquake and tsunami in the region, last March, a number of unscrupulous dealers found to replace the license plate and sell used cars that have been exposed to radiation to several regions in Japan itself.

As mentioned by the Telegraph that has become a tradition for a number of used car dealers in Japan to sell cars to Russia and Southeast Asia region. The government then banned and asked that the cars are irradiated destroyed in order to avoid contamination.

Last June, as reported by the same media, the Police Russia sends back a half-dozen cars from Japan after finding that the vehicles were radioactively contaminated.

As noted NBC Los Angeles Daily quotes Japanese, Asahi Shimbun, used cars that were irradiated and then sold in Japan alone after being banned for export. Around 700 cars are ready to send stopped by authorities at the port after known to contain the radiation that exceeds the 0.3 microsieverts per hour.

Even more surprising, a van recorded as a car from Iwaki (including the irradiated region) successfully sold out of the area. When tested, the van containing 110 microsieverts of radiation per hour or about 300 times the limit specified.

The dealer to replace the original number plates with new ones to trick the buyer. He himself claimed to realize his actions against the law, but still sell them because of economic pressures and are in desperate need of money.

F1 Massa's turn skyrocketed in India

If the first official practice dominated India F1 Lewis Hamilton, the second session belonged to Felipe Massa. Ferrari's around the international circuit Baddh 5.14 miles away with the fastest time of 1 minute 25.706 seconds was achieved in 82 minutes. The record was the fastest rider in Brazil continue to survive until the end of the exercise which took 90 minutes.

2010 and 2011 world champion Sebastian Vettel who kept trying to sharpen the time Ferrari was a fiasco. Best time of 1:25,794 before broken masses, could not dilampauinya own. So he had to settle for second place.

Fernando Alonso has shown a great leap with the F150 car Italy. Had continued to perch outside the big five, lived the rest of the 20 minutes immediately nudged into third place.

Have not memorized the track

Last official practice session on Friday (28/10), still tinged scenes many riders who have not memorized the ins and outs of the track Baddh. As has been running 15 minutes, riders twist Maldonado Williams and trapped into the sand so it can not enter the track.

Not a few riders that both wheels went off the track because it has not fully memorized. As experienced by Alonso and Buemi (Toro Rosso). Fatalities experienced DJAmbrosio when conquered bend "S" car lost control and struck the barrier wall directly.

Luckily pebalapnya safe and sound, while the condition of the car with the right rear wheel off.

Display the Official Toyota FT-86 Far from the concept

I think the trend in Japan again leaked new product with an uploaded copy of the brochure on the internet. If yesterday G4 Subaru Boxer engine, this time version of the Toyota FT-86 Modellista already dikustom by Toyota for the Japanese domestic market.

On the type of sports car, Toyota has changed the exterior styling than the concept model FT-86 II on display in Frankfurt and Geneva. So, here aerokit packages such as front spoiler, side skirts wide, and no rear wing.

Then, the display front was redesigned, including the form of loss of light and bumper-style LEDs. 're Back, good lights and bumper are also new designs. Thus, overall, the figure of the FT-86 this Modellista merip with Subaru BRZ.

This brochure also features interior FT-86, only to be eliminated Modellista red accents. Regarding the engine, were not disclosed.
