2012 Volvo V60 Plug in Hybrid
If you’ve been on the hunt for a vehicle with great gas mileage, you’re likely familiar with the fuel-sipping hybrid and diesel powerplants that will give you the most miles per gallon. Now, Volvo plans to combine both elements with the introduction of the V60 Plug-in Hybrid next week at the Geneva Motor Show. “The V60 Plug-In Hybrid is billed as the worlds first diesel plug-in hybrid, packing a 2.4-liter five-cylinder turbodiesel coupled with a 70-hp electric motor on the rear axle,” says Autoblog. “The hybrid diesel wagon enables the driver to select from one of three modes of propulsion: Pure for electric drive, Hybrid for alternating propulsion and Power for an extra boost from both.”
Volvo’s No Compromise ethos follows in the car’s specifications. Up front there’s a 2.4 liter, five-cylinder diesel engine married to a six-speed automatic gearbox. Producing 215 horsepower, it is supplemented by a 7 kilowatt electric motor, which enables the V60 Plug-in Hybrid to enter all-electric all-wheel drive mode when required.
Driving the rear wheels is a 50 kilowatt peak electric motor, making the V60 Plug-in Hybrid Wagon a through-the-road hybrid. Combined, the entire drivetrain system can produce an impressive 472 foot-pounds of torque, and, in power mode, accelerate the car from 0-62 mph in just 6.2 seconds.
All that torque comes in handy for towing too: Volvo claims the V60 Plug-in Hybrid Wagon can easily tow up to 1.9 tons, although fuel economy won’t be anywhere near the headline-grabbing 1.9 l/100km (124 mpg) it has achieved on the European test cycle.
This Volvo V60 will be priced lightly higher than a standard version, but the saving in fuel economy may outweigh the initial costs. In order to make the car as efficient as possible, Volvo has included a 2.4-liter inline 5-cylinder diesel motor that powers the front wheels of the car. This engine can produce 215hp and 440Nm of torque, giving the small car plenty of power. The major difference comes in the rear end, where an Electric Rear Axle Drive (ERAD) unit gives power to the rear wheels. An electric motor that makes 70hp is given its charge by a 12kWh lithium-ion battery pack. These two systems together combine to make 285hp and 660Nm of torque and a rather quick hybrid acceleration of 0-60mph in 6.9 seconds.
In typical Volvo fashion, safety is a paramount concern. Many people in the industry are concerned about how large battery packs will react after collisions and Volvo has taken it under advisement during development. The battery pack in the V60 will be completely separated from the passenger compartment and encased by extra steel beams in the frame. If the battery were to be damaged in an accident special ducts have been incorporated into the structure to lead the gases out safely under the car. Other safety features including Collision Warning, Full Auto Brake, and City Safety will be standard on the new V60 and intend to keep occupants safe in all conditions.

2008 Chevrolet Cruze
CHEVROLET CRUZE
For the first time Chevrolet Cruze was shown at the Paris Motor Show 2008. In the same year the car was introduced for sale in South Korea under the name Daewoo Lacetti Premiere. Cruz replaced in the production program General Motors just two cars: Chevrolet Lacetti and Chevrolet Cobalt. The basis for the new model has served as a global platform Delta II.
Chevrolet Cruz is a member of class C. Its length is 4597 mm, width - 1788, height - 1477 mm ground clearance - 150 mm. The amount of luggage - 450 liters. Compared with previous models Chevrolet, Cruze design can be described as bold and modern. From the classic lines and quiet Lacetti was gone.
In Russia, Chevrolet Cruz is available in three levels of configuration: Base, LS, LT. The price for a car with a 1.6-liter engine and manual transmission starts at Base configuration of 551 000 rubles.
Standard equipment includes 16-inch steel wheels, full-size spare wheel, electric and heated side mirrors, cloth upholstery, air ducts to rear, power steering, height-adjustable steering column, front power windows, CD-player and radio, ABS Front and side airbags, immobilizer, and protection of the crankcase.
Price Chevrolet Cruz with 1.8 liter engine and automatic transmission into a top LT configuration is already 752 000 rubles. This version boasts six airbags, ESP, 17-inch alloy wheels, foglights, three-spoke steering wheel with leather trim, a package for tobacco, leather upholstery, heated front seats, climate control, powered windows on all doors, cruise control, rain sensors, and light, CD-player with USB-input, audio control buttons on the steering wheel and standard anti-theft system.
Among classmates and the major competitors Chevrolet Cruze are the following models: Toyota Corolla, Skoda Octavia A5 , Subaru Impreza, Opel Astra H Sedan, Volkswagen Jetta new , Ford Focus 3 , Hyundai Elantra 2011 , Renault Fluence.
The most striking and unusual in comparison with their classmates, looking front end. Large and "evil" headlights, massive false radiator grille, divided by a horizontal crossbar, and the general "frown" front of the bonnet give the car an aggressive look.
The form of the hood Chevrolet Cruz with his side and central edges is no longer something new (such a decision can be seen in the latest Renault Megane), but in the face of these items are entered Cruze harmoniously. Profile and the rear of the vehicle is much quieter. From different angles they can somehow remind competitors: curved, large bi-colored tail lamps, curved roof line, parallel faces on the sides of the body - all these elements are widely used in the classroom.
In the design of interior Chevrolet Cruz used the original decision. The form of the steering wheel, instrument panel and control keys are not standard for todays C-class cars. Shop set up a claim to it to look "not in the class of expensive."
Torpedo shape and glove box lid to the Chevy Cruze emphasize the separation of the front of the passenger compartment into two zones: the driver and passenger. Scale of the speedometer, tachometer and other indicators placed in the wells. Keys a lot, but the console does not look overloaded.
Chevrolet buyers Cruz have a choice between two four-cylinder unit working volume of 1.6 and 1.8 liters. Both 16-valve engine and are equipped with multi-point fuel injection.
1.6-liter engine 109 hp vydvet at 6000 rev / min. and a maximum torque of 150 Nm at 4 000 r / min. Capacity 1.8-liter engine makes 141 hp and maximum torque of 176 Nm is achieved in at about 3800. Both engines comply with environmental requirements of "Euro-4" and can be aggregated as a five-speed manual and auto-shestitstupenchatoy transmissions.

2012 ABT Volkswagen Up Review
Volkswagen Up is a forthcoming version of VW in India. German rooted, one of the globally popular car makers Volkswagen is setting up to launch VW Up in the beginning of 2012. It was first unleashed at Frankfurt Motor Auto Showcase, which was held in 2007. It is a tiny car which is ready to debut; it is particularly made for Indian small families with an astonishing price. The price tag of this car will falls at 3-5 lakhs in domestic market, so it will be a least-priced car in the Volkswagen wing. Volkswagen Up, Skoda India will decide the future of the Citigo in India.
Exterior
The fact that the engine of the up! runs in the rear has a decisive inf luence on its exterior design. That is because the up! has no classic radiator grille. It forges links to the Beetle. This fact alone gives it a great deal of independence. Dominant design characteristics are the headlamps that take an inward and diagonal line, between them the horizontally arranged air vents, the VW logo (as one of the few details kept in chrome), the tailgate that extends far forward and the smooth bumper with a circumferential black stripe as a detail of the “happy face” that is typical of Volkswagen.
Interior
Mounting the engine in the rear opened up entirely new interior concepts. Relative to its exterior size, the space offering is exceptionally forward-thinking. The same is true of its variability: Except for the driver’s seat, all other seats can be folded and removed. Since they are designed as light shells, they can be quickly stowed in one of the cargo areas – besides the front trunk there is also one in the rear – to free up space. Afterwards, the entire passenger compartment length can be utilized as a storage area for especially bulky objects.
TheVolkswagen Up engine
VW plans to offer a choice of three different three-cylinder engines for its NSF models. It is not quite clear whether there will be a bespoke 1.0-litre unit or whether the Up will adopt the existing 1.2-litre 16-valve version from current small VWs.
In either case, the maximum power output is 60bhp and top torque 80lb ft. Next rung up the pecking order is a turbocharged edition rated at 86bhp and 120lb ft. The only diesel earmarked for the new small VW is a 1.2-litre common-rail engine which develops 75bhp and 135lb ft.
A five-speed manual is standard on the production Up, but the stronger petrol unit can alternatively be combined with a dual-clutch gearbox. Target fuel consumption figures are 65.8mpg for the petrol-engined model (95g/km of CO2) and 94.7mpg for the TDI (75g/km).
