  • PEUGEOT 2008 Urban Cross: Dissapointment Comes With Orange Stripes

    PEUGEOT 2008 Urban CrossPEUGEOT 2008 Urban Cross special edition is finally here. It was the expected move by the brand, after it released 2008 Crossover Special Edition. The Urban Cross has numerous goodies to demonstrate, so let’s waste no more time and get started.

    PEUGEOT 2008 Urban Cross and the additions

     

    Drivetrain system

    PEUGEOT 2008 Urban Cross strictly follows its predecessors and comes with Active badge level, which greatly benefit this model especially. Now the Special Edition comes with two powerplant options: the 1.2-Liter PureTech 110 hp (80 kW), which offers 108/km of CO2 or the 1.6-liter BlueHDi 100 hp (73 kW) S&S with 95 g/km of CO2 emissions. If I have to be honest, we expected some more power, but the good fellows at PEUGEOT decided this is more than enough. I wonder what customers and fans think about the power output.

    PEUGEOT 2008 Urban Cross

    Exterior

    In fact, there is nothing so interesting about the exterior design of the PEUGEOT 2008 Urban Cross. You will deal with the same old funny and stupidly “smiled” grille and the same  old long headlights. The designers and engineers definitely tried to add some confidence and ready-to-go stance, but the overall look of the front is just.. boring. Just like the back. It demonstrates the same boring lines and contours, that together create an empty and blank space. But don’t lose hope. There is at least one interesting feature. The sides come with interesting stripes in orange color. But the patter is made good, without the annoying attention-seeking character of the orange. The lines are almost stylish and make the impression of blending with the body color. Not that bad solution, when I take a second look.

    Interior

    Sadly, there isn’t also something interesting about the interior too. Although it could be a cozy place for one to be, the style looks also boring and made without any passion. However, it looks safe and ready to offer all it has to offer to the driver. The back seats also continue this uninteresting affair. In fact, only the luggage space compensates with all the volume it has to offer. Hopefully it will compensate the overall disappointing interior concept.

    PEUGEOT 2008 Urban Cross

    With all this said, I hope to hear some opinions and I await you to write what you think about PEUGEOT 2008 Urban Cross special edition.

    Exterior

  • Bentley Continental GT Speed Breitling Jet Team Series Limited Edition Unleashed!

    Bentley Continental GT Speed Breitling Jet Team SeriesBentley Continental GT Speed Breitling Jet Team Series automobiles are here! This is brand’s special mixture of luxury and high performance machines. But there is something else. The series is limited to only seven vehicles and every single one of them is crafted with the well-known Bentley quality and style.

    SEE ALSO: Bentley Bentayga Previewed During Winter Testing in Sweden [VIDEO]

    In fact, Bentley Continental GT Speed Breitling Jet Team Series will make some performance demonstrations across the US and Canada. It looks like the Bentley engineers really have to show off what they have accomplished. Well,  to be honest, I’ll also have that urge to show off my completely redesigned Bentley if I built it all by myself.. However, let’s check out some more details about the vehicles themselves.

    Bentley Continental GT Speed Breitling Jet Team Series and their offering

    What the cars have to demonstrate is first of all the nicely painted body with dual color scheme. It is a wonderful split of Hallmark and Onyx, which is in full contrast with the special Yellow lines. It is some sort of electric yellow pattern, that instantly catches the eye. In fact, it stays not that bad on the outside, but the same scheme is continued and into the interior. From the inside, the yellow sharp lines stay somehow not in place and I am sure, they will annoy some of the passengers. And I am also sure, that the owners desire for some comfort and cozy ride, which the lines will not allow. They bring some tension to the whole interior and force your attention towards them.

    Bentley Continental GT Speed Breitling Jet Team Series

    But let’s continue with the other features. Bentley Continental GT Speed Breitling Jet Team Series vehicles come with individual number, that corresponds to every one of the seven Breitling Jets. How cool is that? Furthermore, the central console comes with carbon-fiber elements. In fact, Mulliner has matched the Breitling’s signature yellow color, logos and graphics with the style and the color scheme of the jets, that inspired the whole project.

    Bentley Continental GT Speed Breitling Jet Team Series

    Bentley Continental GT Speed Breitling Jet Team Series will make debut at the Boeing Seafair Airshow on 31th July in Seattle, where the Jet Team will demonstrate some flight skills. Furthermore, the key to each vehicle will be given to the owner personally by the corresponding jet pilot. But before that, every owner will have to take a flight with the jet pilots. It sounds a good deal for me: you go for a flight with Breitling Jet Team and they give you a key to a Bentley vehicle.

    So, what do you think about the latest Bentley lienup?

  • Lexus IS 200t Is The Third Model To Include the Brand’s Latest Engine

    lexus is 200tLexus IS 200t will be the next Lexus vehicle, that will adopt the petrol turbo power. In fact, the 200t is the third model, that will be geared with this particular Lexus engine. The other two models are the NX 200t crossover and the RX 200t SUV.

    What Lexus tries to achieve is a maximum torque of 350Nm and 241hp (180 kW). All this driven by the rear wheels with an eight-speed Sport Direct Shift automatic gearbox. Sounds good, right? Yes, it does. And it gets better with the 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph), that ends in 7 seconds with an average consumption of 40 mpg. What is interesting about the engine is that, it comes with numerous innovations and tweaks. For example the machine offers the aid of fast throttle response, minimal turbo lag and all this combined with not-that-bad fuel economy.

    SEE ALSO: Lexus Unveils Another Sporty Concept Vehicle

    Lexus IS 200t and the technology additions

    The engine uses special intercooler system, that reduces the intake volume of the turbo and helps for vehicle’s fast response. Furthermore, Lexus IS 200t offers and a twin-scroll turbocharger in order to reduce the waste of energy.

    D-4ST fuel injection

    The special fuel injection is split between the direct and the port injectors, which offers efficient fuel consumption and improves low-speed torque and economy. If Lexus really achieved such goals, then the brand went in the right direction.

    lexus is 200t

    Dual VVT-iW technology

    And the Lexus IS 200t also offers innovative dual intelligent variable valve-timing technology (we all hope it will be something useful with that long name), indeed the Dual VVT-iW. It allows the vehicle to have the optimal torque levels throughout all the rev range and also helps better use of the Otto cycle and the Atkinson cycle. As you know, the Atkinson cycle reduces the pumping losses and offers better fuel economy.

    Light weight and other features

    The engine is also made of light materials and weights just 160kg. The nickel and steel elements ensure safe ride and heavy duty working: Lexus has done (or at least told us so), that there were about 10,000 hours of tests and experiments and one million kilometers driven, all this only to ensure quality and functionality. But we will see about this.

    lexus is 200t

    Smoothness and other goodies

    Lexus IS 200t offers an engine, that is built like a tank and runs like.. like.. well, it runs like a good Lexus engine. There is a special calcium-free lubrication oil, that prevents engine knock at low revs, while the piston cooling oil makes further improvements in the anti-knock performance. Furthermore, Lexus managed to get rid of the “turbo sigh” effect. As you might know, this is an annoying noise, heard, when the throttle is closed. And now the Lexus IS 200t is geared with a special system, that delivers power without noise.

    Mopar Dodge Challenger Drag PakMopar Dodge Challenger Drag Pak is here. And it has a lot to show. First of all, let’s say, that Mopar stayed true to the high-performance world. And second: the Dodge, revealed today, offers even with some optional packs. The Dodge will be offered with the supercharged 354-cubic-inch Gen III HEMI engine or the a naturally aspirated 426-cubic-inch Gen III HEMI engine. Tuning with optional powerplants.

Furthermore, the Drag Pak includes all the latest technology trends, along with numerous improvements and additions.

  • Lotus 3-Eleven: Is it That Interesting or Is It Just Trying to Be?

    Lotus 3-ElevenLotus 3-Eleven is finally here! The high performance sports car was unveiled at the 2015 Goodwood Festival of Speed and it expands the brand’s lineup of expensive and high-end vehicles. Created with the well-known Lotus manner, the 3-Eleven has a lot to offer. But we all wonder if there are really some original features, or this is the same machine in different clothing. So, let’s check out.

    First of all, the Lotus 3-Eleven definitely tries to stay as dramatic as possible and as powerful as possible. The vehicle comes with restyled lightweight body and interesting design (especially the rear) and an overall power output, measured at 450 hp (330 kW). In fact, trying to be more flexible, the Lotus 3-Eleven will be offered in two variations: Road and Race. The difference is that, the Race model will come with more-aggressive appearance and some aerodynamic and drivetrain improvements.

    Lotus 3-Eleven

    Furthermore, the Race version of the Lotus 3-Eleven comes with weight of about 900 kg and offers some tweaked weight-power ratio, compared with the Road version. The Race guy goes from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 3.0 seconds and from that impressive start chases the top speed of 290 km/h (180 mph). But the Road brother isn’t that slower, if we have to be honest. It offers almost the same acceleration, but the top speed is 280 km/h (174 mph). So, it is not that bad, if you chose the Road version.

    Lotus 3-Eleven in depth

    Powertrain

    The 3-Eleven comes with a 3.5-liter V6 engine, that offers supercharger and a special cooler system. We mentioned, that it offers a total of 450 hp (330 kW), but we haven’t told you anything else. Furthermore, the Lotus 3-Eleven offers 450Nm with maximum torque from 3500 to 6500 rpm.  To control this power, Lotus engineers also fitted a close-ratio six-speed manual gearbox, that comes and with a Torsen-type limited slip differential.

    Brakes and Tyres

    The Lotus team this time relied on forged aluminum wheels and two types of tires: Michelin Pilot Super Sport or Michelin Cup 2. It depends which Lotus 3-Eleven you chose: the Race or the Road version.

    Exterior

    Surely the engineering team tried to combine functionality and style. But I am not sure about the second. Even though the vehicle is beautiful, I still miss these small details and tweaks, that make you just want to hug the car. However, the Lotus 3-Eleven still has interesting features to offer. For example, the vehicle is now with 40% lighter than the GRP model.

    In fact, the vehicle has its own confidence, but I still think, that the front is somehow unpolished. But this minor problem actually compensated by the interesting lines on the sides and the confident and massive manly-looking back. Just look at the elegant and smooth lines at the sides and how they contrast with the aggressive and somehow badass-looking rear.

    Lotus 3-Eleven

    Interior

    Definitely the race character of the Lotus 3-Eleven dominates the interior. In fact, the domination is so serious, that the interior looks..boring. Yes, boring, despite the fact it is functional and driver-focused. But despite the not-that-interesting-looks, the Lotus 3-Eleven has still some goodies to show. For example, the TFT instrument cluster aeroscreen. There is also a special steering wheel and redesigned seats. Furthermore, the cabin offers data logger system, FIA approved race seat, fire extinguisher and battery kill switch.

    Manufacturing

    Maybe one of the best news about the Lotus 3-Eleven is that, it will be hand-made. The Lotus Headqurters in Hethel will offer conditions to skilled craftsmen, so they can provide customers with only high quality materials and overall superior building quality.

    As you can see, the Lotus 3-Eleven is still a wonderful vehicle, despite some minor problem and misunderstanding. I wonder, what do you think about it?
