Nissan decidida a fabricar eléctricos de bajo coste | | |
El año pasado Nissan impactó positivamente a la industria con su concepto eléctrico denominado Mixim Concept, cuyo diseño era impresionante, pues las características deportivas del compacto junto a un interior futurista en el que se incluía un panel central LCD hacían una vez más gala de la capacidad del fabricante nipón. Pero la idea de un coche eléctrico no se quedó con el concepto, pues desde que la compañía japonesa se asoció con Renault las posibilidades de producir coches eléctricos en masa se han vuelto una realidad.

Salón de Londres 2008: Seat Ibiza SC | | 
De salón en salón con Seat; en Madrid pudimos ver al Ibiza de 5 puertas por todo lo alto y para estas, los de Martorell se han reservado el 3 puertas, llamado SC (Sport Coupé). Aunque hace ya bastante que lo conocemos por fotos, la firma española tiene ciertos intereses que le han llevado a marcar algo más de presencia en el Reino Unido, buscar ventas cómo no. Por supuesto, no es el único modelo que ha estado presente, muchos otros que en nuestro país empiezan a ser habituales son allí debutantes. Pero vamos a lo que nos importa, la novedad mundial. Con la versión de cinco puertas se sentía bastante añoranza por el Concepto Bocanegra desvelado meses atrás en Ginebra; bueno, no es que con este podamos decir que todo está solucionado pero si es cierto que su carrocería mejora mucho.

Lutz Says the Volt Will Be In Production by 2010 | |  General Motors car tzar, Bob Lutz spoke at the Reuters Auto Summit recently, and was quoted as saying that the Chevrolet Volt series hybrid will be in production by the end of 2010. Executives at GM sound pretty intent on meeting their deadline, because Lutz admitted to reporters that employees working on the Volt “are becoming increasingly nervous” about getting this thing out by the end of the decade.
The biggest challenge in meeting the production deadline is the battery technology that will be used in the Volt. GM’s two battery suppliers, A123 Systems and Compact Power, are working around the clock to improve the life span and performance of the lithium-ion batteries. GM has its own internal R+D team working on a solution as well, applying for patents every step of the way to ensure their investment is secure. GM aims for the Volt to get a 40 mile range on its batteries alone, and if they can get it on the market by 2010, competing auto makers will have some serious trouble on their hands.

Best And Worst Compact SUVs | |  If you?re thinking of purchasing a small SUV you?re in luck because there are many good choices. Compact SUVs offer practicality, fuel-efficiency, and nice style. In fact you can find many models for under $25,000 complete with an auto warranty. So what are the best and worst models to consider? Read on.
The Honda CR-V is the #1 compact SUV. It scored the highest for performance, safety, and interior. According to reviewers, it drives really well, has a sleek design and offers ample storage room. Following close behind, the Toyota RAV4 comes in second place in its class. This vehicle has a surprising amount of power for its size. It now offers a V-6 engine, as well as a third row seat. The RAV4 was the first compact SUV in its class over a decade ago. Coming in #3 is the 2008 Subaru Forester. This SUV is known for being a fun, family-friendly vehicle. Reviewers complained about the exterior being bland and the balky transmission, but were willing to overlook these things because it had some great positive features. Unfortunately, there are some compact SUVs that didn?t rank as well. In last place was the Saturn Vue Hybrid. According to reviewers, it isn?t very refined and isn?t as fuel thrifty as many other hybrids. Also at the bottom of the list is the Mazda Tribute because its power and handling doesn?t match its competitors. Finally, the Jeep Compass drives more like a car, but doesn?t have the sportiness or off-road capabilities that other Jeeps have. If you?re looking to buy a compact SUV, there are many great choices out there. The most important thing is to do your homework and make sure you are choosing wisely. Also keep in mind the cost of new car warranties, maintenance costs and auto loans when determining your budget. | | | |
