2010 BMW ActiveE Concept Car Powered By A New Synchronous Electric Motor Specially Developed For This Vehicle

2010 BMW ActiveE Concept Car

Introducing the BMW ActiveE Concept, the latest electric vehicle project under BMW Group's initiative to produce vehicles that explore solutions to minimize environmental impacts while preserving the kinetic driving experience for which BMW has long been known. The BMW ActiveE Concept follows the all-electric MINI E as the second large-scale electric vehicle test program to be conducted in the hands of interested customers.
The BMW Concept ActiveE is based on the BMW 1 Series Coupe. The BMW Concept ActiveE is powered by a new synchronous electric motor specially developed for this vehicle. Its maximum output is 125 kW/170 bhp, the maximum torque of 250 Nm / 184 lb-ft is available from standing as is typical for electric motors and remains available over an unusually broad load range.
2010 BMW ActiveE Concept Car

Predicted driving performance figures: acceleration from zero to 60 km/h (37mph) in less than 4.5 seconds and from zero to 100 km/h (62mph) in less than 9 seconds, maximum speed: approx. 145 km/h (90 mph, electronically limited). As with the MINI E, the real-world range is expected to be about 160 km / 100 miles on a single charge, depending on conditions (FTP72 cycle range is calculated to be 240 km / 150 miles in simulation).
2010 BMW ActiveE Concept Car

The electric drive system draws its energy from new, advanced lithium-ion battery pack developed jointly by BMW and the co-operation partner SB LiMotive especially for the BMW ActiveE Concept. They enable a range of approx. 160 kilometres (100 miles) in everyday use. An intelligent battery management system helps achieve this range largely independently of external climatic conditions. Additionally, the charging period required for the lithium-ion batteries is very short. On the European power grid, the battery pack can be fully charged in just 3 hours at a wall box with a current of 50 ampere at 230/240 volts. In North America, using a high-current (32 ampere continuous) residential wall box, the charge time is about 4.5 hours.

There is a clearly recognizable differentiation from the serial production model of the BMW 1 Series Coupe with the body finish in Liquid White metallic, as well as graphic elements derived from printed circuits in Electric Blue on the hood, doors, roof and trunk lid, as well as the lettering “ActiveE”, “eDrive” and “EfficientDynamics” on the doors and side panels. Specific light-alloy wheel wheels, the lack of an exhaust system and blue illuminated elements such as the roof fin and charging connection highlight the special character of this electrically powered concept vehicle.
2010 BMW ActiveE Concept Car

In the BMW ActiveE Concept, new BMW ConnectedDrive services are presented which have been designed exclusively for use in an electric vehicle. This includes specific remote functions which enable the use of a mobile phone to check the charge status of the battery, search for public charging stations and activate the vehicle’s auxiliary heating and air conditioning functions. The BMW ActiveE Concept creates a basis for the expansion and intensification of this field testing on electro-mobility, oriented towards enabling large-scale production in the future. The aim is to produce a fleet to a scale which will exceed that of the MINI E. The BMW ActiveE Concept moves a little closer towards the future of an individual mobility which will combine driving pleasure with CO2-free travel.

2010 The GeigerCars Cadillac CTS-V Brute Force Powered By A Supercharged 6.2 liters V8 Engine

2010 The GeigerCars Cadillac CTS-V Brute Force

GeigerCars.de, a German tuner specialized in North American cars, has launched an upgrade program for the Cadillac CTS-V. Despite its German location, Geiger Cars shows a great passion for tuning American cars. Instead of getting even more power and torque out of neighbouring brands like the Audi RS 6, the BMW M5, or the Mercedes-Benz E 63, Geiger chose to cross the Atlantic and create a monster out of a beast.
2010 The GeigerCars Cadillac CTS-V Brute Force

The performance saloon segment has for years been the exclusive domain of German manufacturers, for vehicles like the Audi RS6, the BMW M5 or the new Mercedes E63 AMG set the bar so high that most others don't even try to compete. So it's all the more surprising that the American Cadillac of all brands has suddenly hit back with the CTS-V, a lighting ride which has left a good many journalists pale-faced and shaken after test drives. 564 series HP and a massive maximum torque of 747 Nm are a clear challenge to Munich, Ingolstadt and Stuttgart.
2010 The GeigerCars Cadillac CTS-V Brute Force

What is more, Cadillac is now marketing the CTS-V in Europe for 74,400.00 euros - which needless to say leaves its German competitors trailing on the price-performance front.
Tradition, as everyone knows, is an obligation to deliver. That is why GeigerCars.de is offering special performance tuning for the Cadillac CTS-V, timed to coincide with the American performance saloon's European launch.
2010 The GeigerCars Cadillac CTS-V Brute Force

The four-door Cadillac with the tapered bonnet, The Cadillac CTS-V already comes packed to the hilt with a supercharged 6.2-litre LSA V8 based on the LS9 V8 from the Corvette ZR1. In its raw form it makes 415kW (564hp) at 5900rpm and 747Nm of torque. Not content, Geiger engineers upped the charge pressure releasing 455kW (619hp) and 850Nm of torque - a level few sports cars can match, and called it Brute Force. Drive is still thrusted upon the 6-speed gearbox and the rear wheels, although fifth and sixth gears are shortened. Top speed is rated at over 330km/h (205mph).
2010 The GeigerCars Cadillac CTS-V Brute Force

One thing is for sure: the Geiger Cadillac CTS-V shoots into action in all situations and keeps a joyful grin on its driver's face in every one of its manual gears. Not only that, but its optimised chassis means the CTS-V offers the perfect balance between long-distance comfort and an uncompromising hunger for curves and speed. In the face of such American sports perfection, we can only say "hats off"!". Geiger gives assurances that the car is a good compromise between a long-distance cruiser and a sharp, agile cornering machine. It can be had for €84,900, just €10,500 more than what Cadillac charges for the standard vehicle in Europe

peugeot 207 cc and girl


peugeot 207 cc and girl

Design-wise, the peugeot cars 207 CC offers more elegant, sportier and sleeker lines than the 206 CC it replaces. The rakish windscreen does a wonderful job of highlighting the athleticism of the car. The rear, which I personally think has shades of the Mitsubishi Colt CZC, is neater and positively more attractive than its predecessor.

From whichever angle you look at it, the peugeot 207 CC now boasts a smarter and more confident look, more so with the top down. All it takes is just 25 seconds to convert from coupe to cabriolet, and vice versa. Without a one-touch function, all that you can do throughout these 25 seconds is to watch in awe as the roof folds majestically into the boot. Operating the roof is totally automatic, meaning that there is no catch to release or lock.

With the roof down, wind buffeting, or rather the lack of it, is never an issue. You can still hold a decent conversation at expressway speeds in the 207 CC.

The downside with many convertibles is that the absence of a solid roof often translates to rigidity problems. Without solid pillars to provide additional support to the overall frame, lesser convertibles usually fall prey to body flex. Peugeot engineers, however, have done a commendable job in strengthening the chassis, thus ensuring that the car remains largely flex-free even over bumpy roads and bends. The downside, however, is that 200 kilos have been added to the overall weight of the car.

Steering is both responsive and decently sharp, although it does get a bit vague above expressway speeds. Compared to the previous model, steering feedback has also improved, giving more information to the driver on the road surface conditions. On the inside, quality and design, have been given a boost with soft-feel facia. There’s no doubt that the 207 CC has become a classier car overall. Space-wise, there is abundance of it for those in front. It’s a different story altogether for the rear seats as even midgets would complain of cramped conditions.

Where luggage is concerned, golfers heading to the range or course should dispense with their full-size golf bags and full set of clubs. With the roof up, you get 449 litres of space. Driving topless, the cargo area dwindles to 187 litres. A practical solution is to dump the bags on the rear seat.

As much as I adore the 207 CC, the car is not without its bugbears, principally the four-speed Tiptronic gearbox. I had expected a consistent ‘hot-knife-through-butter’ smoothness in the gear changes but was greeted with the occasional jerkiness. Drive the car in the manual mode and you’ll have to contend with gear shifts that are anything but swift.

On the move, the 207 CC offers a generally pliant and comfortable ride. At the heart of the coupe cabriolet is a four-cylinder 1.6-litre engine with variable valve timing. Co-developed with BMW, the powerplant generates a maximum of 120 horses at 6,000 rpm and takes 12.6 seconds to sprint from zero to hundred. Torque is a surprising 240 Nm, offering abundant pulling power for swift overtaking. And when speed needs to be shed, the brakes bite exceptionally well.

The 207 CC, which boasts of 5-star Euro NCAP rating, abounds with safety features. These include Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Anti-lock Brakes (ABS), with Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD), and Emergency Brake Assist (EBA). On top of these, the four airbags and chrome-plated rollover bars complete with the safety net. J
