PIEZO Generation injectors and Magnetic. Tight regulations increasing on automobile emissions standards that will be marketed later, is the government’s efforts to reduce emissions. Because the greenhouse effect or global warming even more worrisome. Otherwise are efforts to reduce dependence on fossil fuels. Read more…
Despite the development of automotive technology today lead to electrification, but the motor fuel, like petrol and diesel engines will remain dominant in the next few years. That is the conclusion made by the world automobile components manufacturer.
Some of the company is intensively introduce and develop technology engine components, transmissions and other parts of the vehicle. Read more…
To accelerate the penetration of electric cars in the near future, a company engaged in the field of electricity suppliers component vigorous develop technology “electronics power ” with smaller size and more cheap price. One is Continental which has taken over Siemens VDO from Germany.
According to the company, whereas they are now developing components and complete system of electric cars, namely the energy storage units (batteries), power electronics and electric motors. Read more…
Several automotive exhibitions were sluggish because global crisis does not seem to happen only in America. As Germany was, the great concern covering an automotive exhibition in Frankfurt, which is known as the IAA Frankfurt Motor show some time ago, because some car manufacturers and automotive components are not present to show their products.
However, the spirit for keeping sustainability of Earth’s environment are felt at that European country, because each car company figure out how to preserve the environment through environmentally friendly cars
Individual manufacturers were vying to produce the lowest CO2 as low as possible and save fuel consumption. One of them is by creating a hybrid engine.
Maybe some people still don’t know about hybrid engines, because not many cars with hybrid engines are milling at street today, and knowledge of the hybrid engine is still not widely known, for that matter the following is a glimpse of hybrid engines. Read more…
Success and achievement in life can be expressed in many ways, and one is to have a Mercedes Benz S500L . Can not be denied that the Mercedes-Benz S-Class C car can be a symbol status for owner, a symbol of success or achievement in life. Or, if expressed in short sentences, you are what you drive….
Sitting in the Mercedes-Benz S500L car is different. The Car which are belonging to the flagship (top model) Mercedes Benz is loaded with innovative technologies, particularly related to safety and comfort. Not only that, the New S-Class also set new standards in driving fun and agility. Read more…
The design is a combination of function and emotion. And because it involves the emotions, then the touch of the hand (human feeling) on the design becomes very important. Regarding on that issue, the process of designing the car not only can be done with the computer programming. The designer needs to form a real car with the actual size (1: 1) by using clay (clay).
After the clay model hardens, the designer team will feel the indentations of that car with a touch of the hand and they make it perfect form in accordance with the body that they want. After all done, the team will put designers special sheet materials (like stickers) with silver color around parts of the car body. Read more…
This is the technologi that prided up by mazda in early 2009, they call it SISS [smart idle stop system]. Actually that start-stop technology is use for energy efficiency and make car with gasoline engine more environment friendly, mainly when in the city with having more rush hour
The way to turn the car on again [restart] different from another company, the other company turn on the engine again using starter motor, and mazda using fuel inject direct to burning chamber
Not stress
This way is calimed by mazda more better because engine can turn on fast compare when using starter motor [convensional] because with motor starter. Late happen. So when the gas pedal pushed the engine cannot fastly turn on and and make car move slowly. Like when the engine start from beginning Read more…
CVT is continuously variable transmission, it is one of the system of automatic power transduction which trend today. Basic Differences between CVT and other power transduction is like conventional automatic transmission and manual, is the way to continuing torsion from engine to wheels
CVT is not using wheel gear for increase and decrease the rotation to wheels. CVT use 2 puli and steel belt. Because no more wheels gear, so at CVT there is no gear comparison like conventional automatic transmission and manual. There is only rotating comparison from lower to higher. Gear change not drastically happen, likewise 1 to 2, 3 and others, and on the contrary
So if the gas pedal pushed and engine burden condition change, CVT will change the rotation compare which will continuously send to wheels automatically. Because of that it is named continuously variable transmission, so the transmission will do compare changing continuously Read more…
More Germans luxury cars is equipped by fuel economize technology, one of that car is audi, starting april 2009 some of his product equipped by stop-start system
Not just that, like what trend in F1 arena, audi is using energy which is drop out when braking and turn into electric energy. And another additional is modular program efficiency. For that cars equipped by computer with energy efficiency program, the result is, car is not inform the fuel consumption when it use, but also give tips how to drive efficient
Start-stop system developed for having fuel economize when car is using intown or in rush hour, and its work like this, the system will turn off the engine when car stop, engine will turn off when transmission bar in neutral position and the driver loose the clutch pedal Read more…
With the electric motor directly on the wheel, the option to use the system of 4 x 4, 4 x 2, rear wheels and the movement as a more simple and flexible. Each wheel can only use one or the motor system is also called 4 x4. Simpler again, when the two front wheels only been the electric motor, the car was a 4×2.
Although Venturi Volage uses a battery, but Michelin hopes to moves energy from the vehicle can be fuel cells or capacitor. Therefore also, in addition to working with the Venturi, tire manufacturers also make electric cars with other companies, namely Heuliez and Orange.
Through Maw, Michelin would like to provide evidence that the system can be applied to concept car passengers and goods. With this technology is expected, practical solutions will need transportation in the city, can be missed. At the same time reduce the pollution in the town center with a vehicle that continues crowded
