Hummer versus Prius : the knock-out.
Hummer versus Prius : the knock-out!
In the game Hummer versus Prius, Toyota Prius was declared unanimously victorious (until at least Hummer proven innocent) by referee Dr Peter H. Gleick.
A month ago, Dr Gleick from the Pacific Institute, in his correction of the CNW Marketing report “Dust to Dust” denounced and castigated the authors of the document for fraud to the consumption.
The “Dust to Dust report” was supposed to be an unbiased analysis of the life-cycle energy cost of new vehicles from concept to disposal. In the arena were the Hummer (and its by-products) and the hybrid Toyota Prius.
In his study of the document, it appeared to the eye of the methodical, sagacious and rational scientist a fraudulent use and manipulation of the data. The report stipulated that the massive Hummer used less energy per mile driven than Prius, that its lifetime mileage was inferior to the hybrid. It also suggested wrongly that the majority of the energy is consumed during the production of the vehicle. All the independent research groups converge in saying that 80 to 90% of the energy is consumed while using the vehicle.
To support his theory about manipulated analysis, he took the example of two Toyota models, the Xcion xA and xB, same cars, same capacities, same qualities and supposedly their lifetime mileage and energy are different?
He also pinpointed their confusion in their terminology, power-energy, certainty-uncertainty, precision-accuracy…
After verifications and preoccupied with objectivity and transparency, the final conclusion was “ the report suffers from fatal flaws”
So, questions, what if the readers’ intelligence did not challenge the veracity of the report? To who does benefit the conscious manipulation of the data if not to the car-maker? What if his goal is to mislead the consumer’s behavior and to discredit and silent the main competitors? Here is a flagrant photography of what big corporations are willing to scarify to be at the top of the competition! The dice are rigged while playing! Who will be the victims? The “whom it may concern”? The target? You? Me? Our credulity? Boycott Hummer!

Tesla Roadster: Red and Green !
One look at this baby and I am sold! Red never looked hotter and greener!
The Tesla Roadster is an all sleek, all American, 100% electric car that does 0 to 60 mph in less than 6 sec! Needless to say, it has won every award since its debut including the cleanest startup award for 2007 from TechCrunch !
The Torque curves of Roadster are, of course, stellar. They are promising peak torque even at 0 RPM! So, no auto changes and high energy efficiency even for the highest acceleration possible !! Apparently, it is alarmingly quiet for the kind of acceleration and power it provides ! That is amazing!!
You know what else is cool ? Its carbon foot print ! It is all electric so you only need to look got your state board’s carbon chart to worry about . I found out from his blog that the CEO of Tesla powers his home off of a solar panel grid !
The looks are a killer and the price is north of 100G but, given its startup mode, it has been sold out every year so far!! That truly speaks for how cool this car is !
A 5000 USD refundable deposit starts the process and locks in price. An additional 50 grand would lock in your delivery date as well.

Ferrari 430 Scuderia
The new Ferrari 430 Scuderia will join the road-going V8 line-up alongside the F430 coup and the F430 Spider. The 430 Scuderia is a truly high-performance 2-seater berlinetta which demonstrates how Ferrari's Formula 1 know-how is carried across to its production cars.
The new model is a special series based on the F430 and is aimed specifically at Ferrari's most passionate and sports-driving oriented clients. Development focused on light weight, minimum trimmings and innovative technology. All this to exalt the car's extremely high-performance and ability to thrill the driver.
The new car can count on an extremely low weight-to-power ratio of just 2.45 kg per hp thanks to a low dry weight of just 1250 kg - 100 kg less than the F430 - and to the naturally-aspirated 4308cc V8's 510 hp at 8500 rpm.
Superb performance both on and off the track is assured by a series of cutting-edge solutions. There is the latest software - F1 Superfast - which reduces gearchange times to just 60 milliseconds, and new traction control which, for the first time, combines the E-Diff electronic differential and the F1-Trac traction and stability control in a single integrated system.
Vehicle dynamics, control and performance thus represent the zenith of Ferrari's achievements in terms of developing road-certified sports cars.

Next-Gen Prius Is More of the Same, But Bigger
The Toyota Prius is a car even Stevie Wonder could identify at 50 yards. Its distinctive jellybean shape all but screams, "I care about the environment!," which is one reason there are a million of them on the road. There's an old rule about not messing with success or fixing what ain't broke, and Toyota has taken it to heart with the next-gen Prius we'll see next year at the Detroit auto show.
Spy shots of the 2010 Prius have surfaced over at Next Auto, and they show a car that's a little longer, a little wider and a little more aggressive at the front end. Passengers get more room to stretch their legs and owners get more room for all the groceries from Whole Foods. The 2010 Prius gets fancier headlights and a little more bling inside and out but its profile looks about the same, and for good reason -- with a drag coefficient of 0.26, there isn't much Toyota could do to make it any sleeker. There are rumors a Prius wagon and even a convertible, which has been done before and doesn't look half bad, are in the works, but so far they're just rumors.
Speculation aside, the biggest changes to the Prius are under the skin.
Toyota plans to give the super-efficient Prius a little more oomph. Car & Driver says the next-gen Prius will get a 1.6-liter gasoline engine, a slight bump from the 1.5 currently under the hood. That'll make the car a little more powerful but it also will get a few more mpg than the 48 city/45 highway the current model offers.
But Motor Trend reports that Toyota's giving the car a 1.8-liter engine producing 100 horsepower. Added with the output of the electric motor, total power rises from 110 hp to 150 between now and 2010, according to MT, but the 2010 will retain the same fuel economy as the current model.
There's some debate about the batteries, with some bloggers and motojournos saying the car will get lithium-ion batteries but others saying Toyota will stick with its tried-and-true nickel metal hydride units. That seems more likely, given Toyota and Matsushita are spending $192 million building another NiMH battery factory. If the Prius gets lithium-ion, look for it to happen after Toyota's put a few hundred thousand miles on the forthcoming Prius plug-in hybrids that will use lithium batteries.
One thing's for sure -- the next-gen Prius will be as American as apple pie. It'll be built at a plant Toyota's building in Mississippi to help meet surging demand for a car so hot they're not just holding their value, they're appreciating.
You might want to think twice about buying a car from troubled ZAP. If you can actually manage to get a product from them, and if it actually lives up to its advertising, there’s still a chance you might not even be able to register it legally where you live.
According to the Quincy, Massachusetts' Patriot Ledger, ZAP Xebra owners in Massachusetts received letters from the Registry of Motor Vehicles informing them that their diminutive electric vehicles were neither motorcycle nor car, leaving them in RMV limbo. Of course, this means the owners who already paid sales tax and registry fees ended up having their plates revoked, unable to operate their Xebras on public roads in the Bay State.
Like in the days of the archaic blue laws, Massachusetts once again has lived up to its reputation as the regulatory equivalent of Dean Pritchard. Only Kentucky still bars low-speed electrics from public roads, and their governor is considering issuing an executive order to legalize them.
“We’ve invested money, spent time and now something that is better for the environment is sitting in the garage. It drives me crazy,” Xebra owner Kathy Doyle told the Ledger. The plug may not be pulled forever, though, as bipartisan legislation has already been filed to put the cars back on the road -- similar to recent legislation in Ohio. Current owners may see their cars depreciate, though, because the state legislature only has a few days before its formal session ends.
The Registry says that the cars should not have been registered because they do not meet federal safety standards. Anyone who has ever driven in Massachusetts knows that safety standards are of the utmost importance, but ZAP users contend they only use their cars on short, low-speed trips around town (and with a real-world range of 25 miles at 30 mph, they may not have a choice).
At least the commonwealth is being consistent. If you shipped an Alfa Spider stateside and can’t register it because it hasn’t passed U.S. safety checks, why should you be able to drive around in a Xebra that’s slightly more resilient than the cardboard box (stamped “Made in China”) it was mailed in? Still, there’s something hypocritical about Massachusetts embarking on a quest to turn the bluest of states into the greenest of states, yet barring one of the few all-electric cars currently in production due to a bureaucratic hurdle.

"Maybach coupe 2008 - EXELERO concept car"
This 700 horsepower and a killer body, the Maybach Exelero may be a new high-performance superb model which can steal the road. The V-12 coupe is based on the Maybach 57 and designed to test a high-speed tire for the German tire manufacturer Fulda. The Exelero needed to surpass the 188 mph mark for Fulda. The super-Bach can get to 55 mph in 4.4 seconds with the help of two turbochargers and 740 ft-lbs of torque. Be amazed to see how finished the interiors are. So when r you gonna buy that?
