There is one interesting enough from KTM design. When most of the motor manufacturer KTM chose curved shape instead choose the form with sharp corners. Although this design looks less dynamic but displayed strong effect of this design makes it different from other motor designs. The rest, KTM 690 Duke R is actually fairly standard for the size naked bike design.

Storey designed headlights and look that extends down from the front of this bike looks sleek and aggressive. Fuel tank on the lid with a small fairing which also functions to the directing of air to help cool the engine. while at the bottom of the fairing also installed a functioning cooling the exhaust gas channel.

KTM deliberately placed exhaust gas lines directly below the engine so that the weight of this motor can be concentrated in the center. Another effect to be achieved obvious is convenience. By placing the exhaust gas channel as far as possible from the comfort of the rider riders obviously more awake.

But, when the Prancing Horse in Maranello headquarters held a special "Ferrari Track Event" invited to a very limited community of enthusiasts of speed (Ferrari Corse Clienti), which appears Ferrari 599XX Evo with a very exotic look.

From the observation photographers, there is some use of such water aerokit mounted scoop, side fins, front spoiler, rear diffuser and a large wing. Another component that looks new is the exhaust system and the use of large-diameter front disc brakes that barely stick to the sides of the rim as well as control electronics refurbished.

Lamborghini Veneno very exclusive

Fifty years Lamborghini, that should be celebrated. The Italian stable does that most likely these Lamborghini Veneno. Besides fast he is also extremely exclusive.

e were equally afraid of another special final edition of the Gallardo should welcome as Lamborghinis surprise.

Yet it seems Lamborghini this time thoroughly to have addressed. On the Czech website Auto Forum surfaced these images of the Lamborghini Veneno exclusive hypercar.

Reportedly there are only three copies put together, that road may (and probably long and wide road) for 3.6 million euros each. Swallow. For that money you get a car that is built around the carbon fiber monocoque of the Aventador.
And thats not a bad base.

Pumped
Also on motor plane would take the necessary genes with the Aventador parts. Thus, a pumped version of the 6.5-liter V12 in Lamborghini Veneno . According to the Czechs produces Lambos cream of the crop is now 740 hp and a top speed of 354 km / h.

All-wheel drive is of course standard, and a seven-speed robotized gearbox. Whether he actually will look like? It remains to be seen, but we see a design style that both the Lamborghini Aventador and the Sesto Elemento has merge.

The Mercedes CLA 45 AMG has officially unveiled in New York.
Early last week leaked pretty much all pictures of the Mercedes CLA 45 AMG, so the appearance of the car is no longer a surprise.

The specifications have little secrets but the CLA we find, especially in AMG suit, such a special thing that we would like to once again pass out.

Under the hood lies a two-liter turbocharged engine with a 360 hp and 450 Nm on the leg raises and CLA AMG in 4.6 seconds to 100 km / h firing. Through a 7-speed Speed shift DCT dual clutch transmission, the horsepower and Newton meters to the four wheels.

Meanwhile, the higher-grade version of the Freemont will also come with a touch-screen radio with an 8.4” screen, SD card and DVD reader, Bluetooth system, rear parking sensors, fold-down door mirrors, automatic headlight activation, darkened rear windows and roof bars.

The Fiat Freemont will initially come with a number of powertrain options, including a choice between two 2.0-liter MultiJet turbo diesel engines that produce 140 and 170 horsepower, respectively.

Fiat also announced that the Freemont will come with a front-wheel-drive system and later on, will have a four-wheel-drive system.

Honda Pilot

The Honda Pilot can handle four adults and four kids easily. The Pilot is a midsize crossover SUV. Pilot is efficient among eight-seat crossovers. For 2011, Pilot EX-L offers satellite-linked navigation; and Pilot Touring comes standard with a DVD entertainment system. Pilot was redesigned for the 2009 model year.

Each model is offered with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive (4WD). Navigation and a rear-seat DVD entertainment system are available only on the top two trims

The 2011 Honda Pilot returns mostly unchanged from last year. At a glance, the 2011 Honda Pilot would seem to do a fine job as a family hauler. In sum, we think the 2011 Honda Pilot is an adequate choice for a midsize or large crossover SUV. The 2011 Honda Pilot is a midsize crossover SUV offered in four trim levels: LX, EX, EX-L and Touring. Each is available with either front- or all-wheel drive. The EX adds 17-inch alloy wheels, foglights, painted body molding (versus black plastic), roof rails, heated exterior mirrors, an eight-way power driver seat (with two-way power lumbar), steering-wheel audio controls, tri-zone automatic climate control, an in-dash six-CD changer, and satellite radio. Optional on the EX-L is a rear-seat DVD entertainment system and a voice-activated navigation system bundled with Bluetooth, an iPod interface and a 10-speaker premium audio system.

The 2011 Honda Pilot is motivated by a 3.5-liter V6 that generates 250 horsepower and 253 pound-feet of torque. Front-wheel drive is standard, but all Pilot models are available with an all-wheel-drive system that automatically apportions power to the rear wheels -- up to 70 percent -- when front slippage occurs.

Safety
Standard safety equipment includes stability control, front-seat side airbags and full-length side curtain airbags. Mimicking the 2011 Honda Pilots utilitarian exterior styling, the interior features a rugged and blocky theme. The Pilot also keeps stride with the competition with its roomy third-row seats.

Driving Impressions
In terms of performance, the 2011 Honda Pilot is burdened by a lack of power and a hefty curb weight. On curvy roads, the Pilot also feels rather cumbersome. In our testing, however, that positive feel ran counter to the Pilots rather long stopping distances.

The 2011 Honda Pilot expands availability of its navigation system – slightly – but is otherwise a rerun of the 2010 Pilot. Should you buy a 2011 Honda Pilot or wait for the 2012 Pilot? Any model-year 2012 freshening, however, won’t change Pilot’s interior dimensions or basic engineering.

The 2011 Honda Pilot is visually unaltered from the 2010 model and returns in four levels of trim: basic LX; midline EX; leather-upholstered EX-L; and top-of-the-line Limited. The 2011 Pilot LX has plainer wheels than the other models and lacks their roof rails, fog lamps, and chrome exhaust tips. Otherwise, all Pilots look almost identical. Honda says Pilot’s squared profile, blistered fenders, and chunky front end answer customer demands for a masculine look. Pilot’s basic anybody architecture is shared with the Honda Odyssey minivan and the MDX crossover SUV from Honda’s premium Acura division. Pilots have four side doors and a top-hinged tailgate with separate-opening glass. All 2011 Pilots continue with a choice of front-wheel drive or Honda’s Variable Torque Management (VTM-4). VTM-4 is an all-wheel-drive system that operates in front drive unless sensors detect front-wheel slip. Pilot’s maximum towing capacity is at the upper end of the scale for V-6 crossover SUVs, with AWD models capable of pulling trailers weighing up to 4,500 pounds and front-drive Pilots able to pull up to 3,500 pounds.

The 2011 Pilot is otherwise solidly competitive for features and amenities. (Second-row captain’s chairs aren’t part of the Pilot program.) Both rear benches split and fold, allowing Pilot to haul a 4-foot-wide plywood sheet laid flat. The 2011 Pilot is again available with a sunroof and power heated front seats, depending on model.

Nissan Qashqai: traction All Mode 4 × 4 for the range 130CV dCi engine. Lately not much talk about Qashqai The Nissan SUVs that a while ago broke with the tradition of the SUV to create your own image and above all very modern with a sporty and a good attraction. The same Nissan Juke has been the most responsible for bringing the Qashqai in the background, but now again speaks of him as he received news. From now on, all versions that have 130CV diesel engine shall be equipped with traction All Mode 4 × 4, to have greater off-road capabilities.

The All Mode 4 × 4 is an intelligent system that allows you to choose a type of traction or other conditions depending on the asphalt. From the central panel of the vehicle have three options to choose which refer to this system. First is the 2WD option, the manufacturer recommended routinely when we have to travel on roads such as motorways or freeways. Then we have the option AUTO, in which the vehicle is partially, drive the rear wheels and we can finally choose option 4 × 4 wheel drive permanent all-wheel drive.

This intelligent system is not only found in this model, since for example the Renault Koleos also incorporated. It is a mechanism to simplify things and acts automatically to the driver focus on driving without having to worry constantly adjust the tension, because as we mentioned is connected in the correct mode automatically.

Anyway, many doubts are emerging between users Nissan about this mode. While there is a possibility to AUTO, which would be consistent, as it would in most driving time, it appears that when an informer is connected light on the panel of the driver, reminding us that we have connected this option. It is logical that this signal appears when we drive 4 × 4 permanently connected, as in some way optimal conditions is not suitable to use with the option of switching to partial traction. But it is illogical to appear when circulated with AUTO.

Despite the possible defects that can incorporate the system, or is what makes us think, Nissan remains committed to him and now, all models of the new Nissan Qashqai dCi engine with 130CV incorporate it. Actually, it is a convenient mechanism to use because if it really does work correctly, our vehicle to better retain its mechanical elements, especially those who are affected directly by the All Mode 4 × 4, which are mainly tires, being in contact with the pavement, and the transmission, which must work in one form or another according to the selected option.
