Ford Brings us the Best Hybrid Car to Date

February 11th, 2010

Honda and Toyota have had the midsized market all to themsleves with their entries; the Camry and the Accord, since Ford has dropped the Taurus from their line.Originally introduced in Ford’s 2006 line-up, the Fusion has new modications including the new Hybrid power plant.  Ford officially released the Fusion Hybrid recently at the Los Angeles Auto Show late in 2008.The new Ford Fusion recieves some of the best in-town gas mileage, that only a hybrid can get.Beating out the Toyota Camry by a large margin, and the economical Civic Hybrid by a hair; the Fusion Hybird is ranked at 41 MPG in town driving.Without the gas engine, the Fusion can drive up to 47 MPH on just the electric motor alone.  Already there have been many automotive magazines that have employed this system to achieve much better MPG ratings then the EPA estimates.

Technology in the Fusion allows drivers to learn which style of driving is best for maximizing fuel economy.  They have created an ingenious system which is built into the instrument cluster called the SmartGauge.The driver is innundated with info from the dual data monitors next to the gauge cluster.The first monitor will indicate just how much gas is left and also how much energy is left in the battery pack.The 2nd display shows the vehicle tachometer and also tells which mode the Fusion is running in; full electric or hybrid.The 3rd monitor shows motor and batter power.  The fourth and final data screen shows power to the wheels and accessory power consumption.Information Displays reveal fuel consumption, Miles Per Gallon account, journey record, and antifreeze levels.A real time MPG information gauge easily displays to drivers which driving style would be best for fuel economy.

Check the nav display to see the cool hybrid Energy Flow stuff.A couple of different things will be displayed like the charge of the car, the various hybrid power systems, the regenerative braking, and the boost.

Seperating itself from the hybrid pack, the Fusion has seats made from reclaimed fabric.Ford has finally come out with a fuel efficient car that will appeal to the masses and be a leading competitor to Toyota and Honda’s hybrids.

Admiring the Audi R8

January 29th, 2010

“The slowest car we have ever built”.

The advert was the first thing that caught my eye about the R8, when the whole world was still talking about it. I remember sitting on the sofa when the ad came on, and being grabbed by the slow beauty of it. Only a second later I realised that I was already completely hooked.

It turns out that it wasn’t just me who fell in love with Audi’s first ever supercar, the R8. It isn’t often I see something like that - people all over the world, on television, on the web, in the media, writing or saying exactly the same things - that no matter how much they resisted, they really loved the R8. I have yet to come across anyone who actively dislikes the car, suggesting that maybe Audi have managed to get it perfectly right.

Whether thin or fat, an Audi will always be pretty. Do you remember those adverts where an Audi used to rush up to the screen? Well that is how the brand will always be in my brain, scary and bull-like yet oh so tempting. As one of thier most popular cars, the TT started the trend for good looking cars, and got even better in the new version. The next step up the design ladder resulted in the amazing car we see before us.

The Audi R8 looks stunning. As fast cars go, a sleek shape littered with aerodynamic features is always a good way to start. Add to that a brilliantly “Audi” front grill and the attractive dual rear grill, and suddenly the car looks more and more like the supercar it is. I am of course a fan, but the shape of the R8 is easily one of the nicest I have ever seen, and always looks good in the street. Alongside the stunning supercar R8, Audi are now releasing the Audi R8 Spyder – although personally I prefer the shape of the original.

I know, I know, I haven’t even started talking about the stunning V10 nestled neatly under the hood of this sexy car. On paper it looks great, but they all do, and it was seeing this car in real life and at the cinema that really sold it to me.

Impressively, if you want to own a used Audi R8 rather than an expensive new one, the cost is quite dramatically reduced. I know people who have bought them at dealerships, and many of them haven’t paid much more that a tiny (relatively) £65k. If you were being held back in terms of the cost of the car, then this pricing will probably be a pleasant surprise. If you still cant reach that kind of price level, then you may have to hold off buying an Audi R8 at the minute - opt for a normal used Audi instead!
