2010-Mercedes Benz E 500 Estate luxurious family car. The E-Class Estate is seen as the progenitor of the premium lifestyle estate segment more than 30 years ago. Since the launch of the first Estate in 1977, more than one million customers have discovered their enthusiasm for this most practical way of driving a Mercedes luxury car. This success story is set to be continued by the fifth generation of the E-Class Estate – following up on the successful launch of the Saloon. Only introduced in Europein spring 2009, the E‑Class Saloon had already achieved world-wide market leadership in its segment by May 2009. Some 40,000 new E-Class models have now been delivered to customers.The all-new Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate follows the launch of its sedan sibling earlier this year. Sharing the same platform, the wagon variant adds more utility and cargo capacity with its flat-folding rear seats, cargo area under the rear floor, and third-row rear-facing seats that fold away when not in use.

Dacia launch possible in 2010 (UK)


Renault’s managing director has refused to rule out a UK launch for its budget brand Dacia. Roland Bouchara said in an exclusive interview that the company has only put off the launch of the brand in the UK due to the Pound’s weakness against the Euro and he said the situation would be looked at again in 2010.

“The weakness of the Pound meant we had to cancel the planned launch of Dacia,” said Bouchara. “There was no way it could be sold at a profit.”

The Pound has been recovering rapidly since its drop last year and earlier this year, and Bouchara expects that recovery to continue into 2010. If a Dacia launch were to happen, it would include a range of cars rather than single models such as the Sandero.

“Dacia will soon have a full range of cars, which would spread the cost of a launch,” said Bouchara. “We will take another look at it in 2010.”

Dacia's UK launch has been put off since 2008 due to the very delicate state of the British economy, which is now stabilising.

2010 Mercedes-Benz B-Class F-CELL that comes to the USA on 2010

2010-Mercedes-Benz-Bclass.jpgMercedes-Benz starts its first row-produced fuel cell car on the road: new B ‑ category F-CELL. The pollution free electrical car has better an achievement, than a 2.0-Liter-Treibstoffauto similar is and completely for daily driving is corresponded. Zero emission the heading for system uses the equivalent of 3.3 litres of Diesel per 100 kilometer in the NEDC (new European driving cycle). Production of B ‑ category F-CELL begins late 2009 with a small lot. First from around 200 carriers is supplied at customers to Europe and in the USA at the beginning next year. The new fuel cell carrier offers everything, which people of Mercedes-Benz expect: High comfort and security as well as no reduction in the interior and loading capacity. Customers do not have to sacrifice driving pleasure any, because the electric motor has a maximum output of 100 horse power kW/136 and of maximum torque of 290 nanometers, which are present from the first revolution. It guarantees that B ‑ category F-CELL, whose impressive dynamic treating characteristics are far better in some cases than two-litres a fuel car arrives away at an excellent beginning. Despite these qualities the zero emission fuel cell carrier drive uses the equivalent of only 3,3 litres Diesel fuel per 100 kilometer (NEDC).

Owing to its large distance approximately 400 kilometers and that again refuelling times of the short-circuit from around three minutes, B ‑ category F-CELL guarantees local zero emission mobility even for long expansions. „2009 are the year, in which we manufacture further milestones, in which supportable mobility are concerned.

2010Mercedes-Benz-B-Class-frontside.jpg
The B-category F-CELL takes row production conditions on an innovative role, like the first fuel cell of the world under propelled to be produced automobile, “, says Dr. Thomas Weber, Mitglied of the supervisory board of Daimler AG, responsible for group research and development for Mercedes Benz cars. The technological heart of the carrier is new production of the contract to produce high performance fuel cell system, in which gaseous hydrogen with atmospheric oxygen at staff 700 reacts, in order a river for the electric motor. The fuel cell system of B ‑ category F-CELL has a very good Cold engine even at the temperatures, which are as low as minus 25 degrees Celsius. The heading for system was completely again-developed against the F-CELL in category, which was represented 2004, if Mercedes Benz engineers obtain considerable improvements, in the exit, in the torque, instrument range, reliability and began to characteristics and comfort. The B-category F-CELL now offers a driving of the pleasure and the everyday life suitability at horizontally aligned Mercedes - without local to emissions. As in the half-breeds with burn machines, uses fuel cell the car a Lithiumionbatterie with an exit of 35 kilowatts and a capacity of 1.4 KW/H to load energy and recover braking energy.

Lithium ion technology offers some advantages over conventional batteries, including compact measures, high speed, large reloading efficiency and a long service life. ‑ Category F-CELL the singular sand yielding floor architecture uses the b, which admits far away of a and of the B-category is. The advantage of this draft is that the drive components are in the sand yielding floor, in which it protected and much area will not take up, so that the interior of the carrier remains completely usable and is present a loading capacity of 416 litres. The B-category F-CELL does not need to be afraid comparison into equipment any is concerned. In the eye falling characteristics cover a bonamite silver end and an exclusive light alloy turn inside a draft with 10 spokes. In interior, leather upholstery you set for heating, continue automatic climatic price increase and the COMAND system, as well as other characteristics, guaranteeing a high stage of the comfort. The same level of security as in other Mercedes cars All the same which the conditions, which are reliability of B ‑ category F-CELL of the same high stage as in the Mercedes carriers with conventional burn machines. That B ‑ category integrated security concept F-cells considers the specific characteristics of the inventive heading for system.

2010 of Mercedes-Benz B-Class-fcell.jpg
The concept contains expertise of experience of many years Mercedes-Benz has had with fuel cell carrier drives and applications of high voltages. Mercedes engineers examined and optimized the drive-specific security of the components in more than 30 additional abort tests. Net of the gas stations required for wide-spread use of the car With more than 100 carriers and a combined total quantity examine of over 4, 5 million kilometers of the sample examination, the Daimler and Mercedes-Benz have the most extensive experience with fuel cell carriers of each possible manufacturer world-wide. The b ‑ category F-CELL is further certification that high stage of this technology of the development for automobile use.

However a complete net of the hydrogen gas stations must be still created, before at the place zero emission can become driving wide-spread reality. In order to form this possible, Daimler with government authorities, energy utility programs and oil companies co-operates with the community projects with the places such as Hamburg, Stuttgart and California. Mercedes-Benz regards the development of the electrical cars with battery and fuel cell carrier drives for local zero emission, as means of the addition of the carriers with Hightech combustion engines driving. Advanced Diesel and carburetor engines remain important for applications of automobiles for a long time to come - not only for individual mobility in the passenger cars - particularly over long distances more importantly - however, for freight transport in the LKWas. Electrical carriers on the one hand are used increasingly in the local traffic.

Apparently, the new Audi RS3 will be powered by the same engine as the new TT-RS which has a 2.5 liter turbocharged engine. If this is true, the Audi RS3 will develop around 340 hp and 450 Nm of torque. coupled with the company quattro all wheel drive system, the Audi RS3 is set to do some serious damage.

Other sources say the Audi RS3 could come with a 350 hp or a 400 hp engine, but this puts it dangerously close to the R8 in terms of performance. So, a 400 hp version Audi RS3 is highly unlikely.

2011 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid

2011-Hyundai-Sonata- Hybrid.jpg
L.A. auto show to announce its first U.S.-market hybrid vehicle. The next-generation Hyundai Sonata will be a full hybrid, meaning it can run on electricity alone at low speed and for a limited distance.
Hyundai will use a unique version of a two-mode—or parallel—hybrid system designed to operate at peak efficiency in both city and highway driving. The Sonata will be the first hybrid to use lithium-polymer batteries instead of the current nickel-metal hydride or planned lithium-ion applications. The Korean manufacturer says the use of lithium-polymer batteries will result in a more durable and space-efficient package than other hybrids. The Sonata hybrid will not be a plug-in hybrid but Hyundai plans to add such a system alongside a fuel-cell vehicle at some point in the future.
The Sonata hybrid is due to launch in 2010, likely as a 2011 model. This hybrid introduction, accompanied by high-mileage “Blue” editions of the Accent and Elantra, will help Hyundai achieve a fleet average of 35 mpg by 2015, five years ahead of the 35-mpg CAFE requirement’s 2020 effective date.

New 2009 Porsche Boxster S

Porscheboxter-2009.jpgPorsche Boxster Model year 2009 upgrades start where they do for any enthusiast machine: in the engine bay. The previous base Boxster's 2.7L flat-six has given way to a new 2.9L unit. Power rises from 245 to 255 hp; the Cayman's 2.9 is rated at 265 hp. There's no displacement increase for the S versions; it remains 3.4L, but the powerplant is largely new and boasts direct fuel injection. It spools out 310 hp in the Boxster S and 320 in the Cayman S, increases of 15 and 25 hp respectively.


porsche_boxster_s+interior.jpgPorsche's in-house developed Doppelkupplungsgetriebe -- call it PDK for short -- is a seven-speed dual-clutch transaxle that's as modern as they come. It's really two separate transmissions, each with its own clutch. PDK allows control and responsiveness the old Tip S couldn't dream of and suffers none of the friction loss of a conventional automatic. It's available as an option on both Boxster and Cayman models.Boxster interior was rightly criticized as being too cheap and chintzy, something Porsche began working on early and has continued to upgrade. The '09 boasts a first-class cabin with a new center stack and new audio options. The optional (Porsche Communication Management) system incorporates a touch-sensitive monitor for the nav, audio, and other functions.

Naturally, you can connect your iPod, link your phone via Bluetooth, and even slip the SIM card out of your phone and right into a slot on the dash for full integration with the on-board system. Order up a Bose 10-speaker surround-sound speaker system if you like. New optional seats are now heated and cooled.

Boxster are minimal. New, larger front air intakes, rear diffuser, two tailpipes, new outside mirrors. You can see for yourself when the new Boxster and the new Cayman with the same improvements enter showrooms in March in the United States.The price increases will be fairly stiff,That could a minimum of $52,000 for the base model and $61,000 for the Boxter S.
