Volkswagen Bluemotion Passat With Optional DSG Gearbox India Launch By March 2011
Volkswagen Bluemotion Passat
Volkswagen Bluemotion Passat |
Indian variants of VW Passat 2011 will come with two engine options: the 1.8 TSI petrol engine and 2.0 TDI diesel engine. The 1.8 litre TSI petrol engine gives 157.8 BHP of max power and 250 Nm of torque. The 2.0 litre TDI diesel engine churns out 170 BHP power. Both the petrol and the Diesel version will be available in Manual as well as DSG Automatic Transmission option.
What is Volkswagen Bluemotion?
Bluemotion is not one technology, but it’s a terminology for a series of cars which use highly efficient technologies which make these cars eco-friendly without compromising on the performance. The technologies used in Bluemotion series of cars include:
* Aerodynamic design for less air resistance
* Automatic Start/Stop or Micro-Hybrid System
* Recuperation technology or regenerative braking
* Low rolling resistance tyres for improved fuel efficiency
* High fuel mileage with high efficiency modem engine with fine tuned MPFI and CRDI Systems
* Low emissions in exhaust
* Innovative DSG gearbox for reduced fuel consumption and better performance
What is Volkswagen DSG Gearbox System?
DSG or Dynamic Shift Gearbox by Volkswagen is a very innovative fusion of good attributes of Manual and automatic transmission technologies. Manual transmission is very efficient and results in very minimum losses and high performance, whereas conventional Automatic transmission with fluid based torque converter system are expansive and result in performance and energy loss to some extent over the manual gearboxes.
DSG gearbox with dual clutch technology picks the best of the two systems and combines them into one system which uses two dry clutched and a mechatronics controller which changes gears automatically based on the calculations done by the electronic unit which monitors various sensors. So this unit as a whole, monitors the car’s speed accelerator position and automatically changes gears according to the needs of the driver. Since the gears are changed by an intelligent unit controlling the gear shift using mechanical controllers inside the system, there are very small energy losses unlike fluid based torque converters. This results in better performance, better acceleration and better fuel mileage. In layman’s terms, its like computer changing gears on a manual transmission like mechanism.

By the looks of it, Volkswagen Polo (above) seems to be equipped with a very intelligent electronic system. As you can clearly see (in the image above), the front windshield extends till the rear of the car which might hint toward the eradication of the RVM. In addition, there are no ORVMs, hinting that an intelligent video capturing unit might be installed giving a complete view of the rear and sides of the car. The video might be displayed on the front windshield, thus reducing human effort and labour considerably while turning (to the right or left) the car. Another unique feature in terms of design which we can notice is the slab that runs along the windows.
The Scirocco is similar in design to the Polo with the exception of the ORVMs and the slab in between the window extension.

Car Specifications: Ferrari 599 GTO
Car Specifications: Ferrari 599 GTO
Car Specifications: Ferrari 599 GTO |
GTO 599 599 are provided only for clients who are looking for maximum expression of high-performance driving. 599 GTO directly benefit from the transfer of technology from racing and set the record at Fiorano lap time in 1'24 ".
Fiorano lap time to provide only one indication of the potential of this car. Just as significant are the technical specifications - 670 hp in a 1495kg car is a ratio of weight-for-the power of only 2.23 kg / hp, and ensure the 0-100 km / h acceleration time of just 3.35 "and a top speed of more than 335 km / h
Fundamental to the performance of GTO is an innovative approach to developing the chassis, for the first time on a production car, saw the integration between the handling of the set-up according to the level of response which is close to the limit and very sophisticated electronic controls. The result is nearly complete lack of understeer and chassis really communicative.
Like Ferrari's policy, any new features Ferrari's new solutions for road cars. So the 599 GTO is equipped with the latest, second generation carbon-ceramic brakes are lighter and offer better performance, new aerodynamic innovations, such as wheel donuts that increase aerodynamic efficiency and to improve brake cooling, and Supersport tire developed by Michelin, including a wider front tire for greater roadholding. Driver interface is also new to the implementation of the Virtual Race Engineer (VRE) that provides drivers with immediate information on the performance.
599 GTO is more aggressive character also appears in a number of elements which recall the style of 599XX and a strong voice from the V12.
The GTO (Gran Turismo Omologata) moniker direct calls to mind both the Ferrari that has entered the collective imagination as a symbol of performance. After the 1962 250 GTO, which swept the board in GT racing category in 1960 and is now a very valuable collector's car, came by its iconic 1984 GTO, which basically created a whole genre of modern supercars.
Special web including photos, videos and interviews on a new car, while an exclusive preview to a small number of clients Ferrari will be held on 14 April at the Military Academy in Modena. The public debut of the 599 GTO would likely be in the Beijing International Motor Show in late April.
599 GTO TECHNICAL CONTENTS
Engine and gearbox
GTO 599 engine is derived directly from the unit 599XX execution, but the modifications required for the road-going homologation. Thus, in accordance with the Euro 5 and LEV 2 standards. The 5999 cc 65-degree V12 engine blows out 670 CV at 8250 rpm with maximum torque of 620 Nm at 6500 rpm and there's a rush, smooth constant power all the way to redline with no loss of flexibility even at low and medium revs. This result is obtained by working on-fluid dynamics and components to reduce internal friction and by adopting, inter alia, a redesigned crankshaft 599XX. The car also has a racing-type intake system with a new intake manifold with a geometry diffuser-type and short inlet channel is designed to increase the supply of power at high revs and reduce losses. To maximize the volumetric efficiency per cylinder, Connections between the two plenums in front to compensate the volume variation. This is how the engineers managed to achieve maximum performance at high engine speeds. Engine noise in the car carefully controlled to balance the intake with the exhaust sound, which is equipped with a manifold 6-to-1-derived 599XX.
599 GTO of the same features, lower 60 ms time shift and the possibility to make some downshifts as in the 599XX.
VEHICLE DYNAMICS
One of the most significant innovation of the 599 GTO is a high correlation between the chassis set-up, which is close to the limits of handling, and input from the electronic control was developed to improve the overall performance level.
Because of the very early state of development of two cars', Maranello engineers work to ensure that these two areas of the car will be smooth so that push to limit the integrated response. The result is, of course, the involvement of superlatives and drive a lap faster. Apart from the new pool and bar rear anti-roll stiffness, the car is also equipped with magnetorheological suspension system of the second generation control (SCM2). suspension work closely with the VDC (Vehicle Dynamic Control) and the latest generation of traction control-F1-Trac. This makes the car very responsive to driver input - thanks in part to the application of very direct steering ratio - but also very stable under braking, sharper on turn-in, which is more appropriate in faster cornering and out of the corner.
WEIGHT REDUCTION
599 GTO inherited most of the construction work - by using the same principles as used in F1 - that went into making cars 599XX such extreme performance. Losing weight is an important goal and the result is the extensive use of composites and components manufactured with technology that is more similar to racing specifications. Areas involved include bodywork and in the greenhouse (with thin gauge aluminum and glass thinner), brakes, transmissions and exhaust systems. The result was 1495 kg dry weight and ratio of weight-for-the power of only 2.23 kg / hp, a significant figure that underscores the potential for GTO's performance.
Aerodynamics
599 GTO aerodynamics which has benefited significantly from the experience in F1 and Ferrari engineer with 599XX which allows downforce will be greatly increased without impacting on the drag. Thank you for the solution to be transferred from the car lane road-going version, GTO that produce as much as 144 kg of downforce at 200 km / h. All Cars sharpening, including front, side, the flat underbody and cooling flows. In the second instance, GTO can count increase and ducting to a disc brake pads, and the adoption of a donut wheels - disc position outside the disc brakes which ensure that the hot air out wheelarch remain as close as possible to the car body to reduce drag.
Working on the car's nose was designed to reduce the width of wake generated by the front and thus reduces the drag. Lower front spoiler also has a separate wing that increases downforce on the front of the car and improve airflow to radiator oil cooler. On the sides there is a new threshold leading design more clearly that increases the efficiency of the center of the underbody. The underbody itself combine parts, new lower front with the front diffusers front wheels to optimize downforce, and the double curve of a new rear diffuser.
WHEEL RIM AND Tire
Here's the size difference between the front and rear tires have been changed. The GTO front tire is now 285/30 on 9.5 channels''with 315/35 in 11.5''in the rear channels. 599 GTO has 20''rims. Roll stiffness is greater at the rear to minimize understeer. This solution ensures increased lateral grip and turn a quick login
Brake
The CCM2 new braking system is lighter and even more consistent in high performance situations. Consistent coefficient of friction means that the ABS former can be calibrated to a particularly high level of achievement, further reducing cycle time, thanks to enhanced deceleration and stopping distance is shorter. In fact, it offers 100 599 GTO is very good for 0 km / h braking distance of just 32.5 meters. Like their role in improving the aerodynamics, wheel of a Formula 1 derived from the donut also improve braking efficiency by optimizing the cooling of the brakes.
CAR-DRIVER INTERFACE
Car-driver interface is designed to maximize the performance of the car and driver to the layout of the main command that ensures absolute efficiency and minimum disruption. The manettino Racing also places a strong emphasis on sporty driving track-specific settings by offering drivers a full choice of parameters associated with electronic controls. ICE's position on the 599 GTB Fiorano has been replaced by CT-Off (traction control off). GTO is also equipped with a bespoke, another F1 paddle-carbon fiber to be used more easily in high speed driving. Besides GTO also features a Virtual Race Engineer, a system that monitors the status of the car driver's visibility and provide direct vehicle performance.

This applies to both the production model, winner of the "World Performance Car" Award in 2008 (R8) and in 2010 (R8 V10), and racing cars, with the LMS R8, which won 23 races in his first season and claimed three championships. The genes from the version now comes to road races - the GT R8. Exclusive series limited to 333 units. Every GT R8 has a badge with a production number on the shift key lever.
Consistent use of lightweight construction: 100 kilograms (220.46 pounds), trimmed
production R8 5.2 FSI quattro has been a successful example of Audi's lightweight construction philosophy. Its aluminum Audi Space Frame (ASF) body weighs just 210 kilograms (462.97 pounds). aluminum body panels joined to the frame with extruded profiles and cast nodes through a positive and frictional connection. Machine framework is made of ultra lightweight magnesium.
ASF body largely hand-built at the Neckarsulm factory complex in the manufacturing process. Very high strength body is the basis for the proper handling of high-performance sports cars, and also offer good comfort and safety first class crash vibration.
Thanks to ASF body, the production R8 5.2 FSI quattro weighs only 1625 kilograms (3,582.51 lb) - with all-wheel drive quattro permanent and optional R Tronic transmission. This makes it all the more difficult for the engineers to once again achieve substantial weight savings. They took a complicated approach that involves every aspect of vehicle, and eventually came to rest in the scales 1 525 kilograms (3,362.05 lb).
R8 GT windshield made of thinner glass, while the cell bulkhead between the passenger and engine compartments, and windows in the rear doors are made of strong, lightweight polycarbonate. All three modifications are saved nine kilograms (19.84 pounds). Rear wing is still good for an additional 1.2 kilograms (2.65 pounds); thin sheets of metal and pieces of shaved additional 2.6 kilograms (5.73 pounds) of aluminum hatch for containers 100 liters (3.53 cubic feet) baggage at the front of the car.
Long rear hatch is made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) - a gain of 6.6 kilograms (14.55 pounds). And the rear bumper of the same material sideblades save an additional 5.2 and 1.5 kilograms (11.46 and 3.31 pounds), respectively. With minimal weight and high strength, CFRP is an ideal material for a high-performance sports car, and Audi has extensive expertise in its use.
The engineers are also striving to shave every possible gram of weight of the technical components of R8. They shaved one kilogram (2.20 pounds) from the power brake system, four kilograms (8.82 pounds) of aluminum cap from the brake discs and 9.4 kilograms (20.72 pounds) of batteries. The engineers also found 2.3 kilograms (5.07 pounds) of air intake modules and 2.8 kilograms (6.17 pounds) in isolation of the engine compartment.
interior is also great potential to save weight-savings. The new, lightweight carpets account for 7.9 kilograms (17.42 lb) bucket seats with a chassis, glass reinforced plastic (GRP) account for 31.5 kilograms (69.45 pounds). Detailed a number of additional steps that targeted the interior, exterior and technology, such as a higher class, for mild steel exhaust system tailpipes.
Even sharper and more effective: design
Audi R8 GT design is an expression of concentrated power - a beautiful, technical statue measuring 4.43 meters (14.53 feet) long, 1.93 meters (6.33 feet) wide and only 1.23 meters (4.04 feet) high . It suffered a lot of exterior modifications that further refine the appearance. Many of them also reduce weight and improve aerodynamics. R8 generates more downforce GT when compared with the rapid production model driven - without an increase in the value of Cd (0.36) or the frontal region (1.99 m2) (21.42 square feet).
From single-frame grille frames, struts and blades in the air intake finished in matt titanium gray; matt black painted grille. The splitter below the bumper has a double lip and made of carbon. Slender, curved flics on the corner of the nose to increase downforce on the front axle and also made of carbon fiber composites.
One highlight of the R8 GT is standard LED lamps, the use of light emitting diodes for all functions. They produce bright, uniform light, has a long service life and low energy consumption. Lighting also has an attractive and distinctive appearance. Daytime running lights each consist of 24 LEDs and appear as a continuous band. The reflectors are reminded open clam shells.
Defining element of the display is sideblades, which direct air to the engine in the R8 and GT also made of carbon matte. The same materials used for housing to reduce the size of the side mirror mounted on aluminum base. 19-inch wheels feature an exclusive design of twin five-spoke Y in titanium-look finish. Sport front fender "GT" badges.
Modifications to the back of the car is very obvious, beginning with a fixed-wing carbon matte. ventilation curtains at either side of the rear door and bumper CFRP, which integrates a large circular tailpipes, and vents to the wheel wells, have been redesigned. Larger diffuser is made of carbon fiber composites, panels and license plates in the back of the blade width in matte gray titanium. Its tail lights, which also uses LED technology, has been housing the dark with clear glass panels.
Audi R8 GT offers a choice of four body colors: Orange Metallic Samoa, Suzuka Gray Metallic, Silver Ice Metallic Phantom Black pearl effect and
Breathtakingly powerful: with 412 kW (560 hp), 5.2 FSI
The V10 is modified, which includes the cylinder head is painted red, Audi R8 provides the GT performance of the heart. The sprint GT R8 from start up to highway speed in 3.6 seconds and from zero to 200 km / h (124.27 mph) in 10.8 seconds. And encourages not leave until the top speed of 320 km / h (198.84 mph) is reached.
Changes to the electronic engine coaxed an extra 26 kW of cylinder-ten, which now produces 412 kW (560 hp) from a displacement of 5204 cc. Torque curve peaks at 540 Nm (398.28 pounds-ft) at 6,500 rpm, 10 Nm (£ 7.38-ft) is more than the production version. This V10 has a specific power output of 79.2 kW (107.6 hp) per liter displacement. power-to-weight ratio is 3.70 kilograms (8.16 pounds) per kW, or 2.72 kg (6.00 pounds) per-hp. The engine redlines at 8700 rpm.
Long-stroke engine (bore x stroke 84.5 x 92.8 mm [3.33 x 3.65 in]), which was built in hand-factory in Győr, Hungary, features crankcase made of aluminum-silicon alloys are lightweight and excellent strength. A bedplate - a frame for the crankshaft bearing bridge - further increase its stiffness. Complete engine weighs just 258 kilograms (568.79 pounds). This is marked with a cylinder angle of 90 degrees and dry lubrication-bah, which uses a highly efficient oil pump module. Both solutions reduce the center of gravity and thus improve driving dynamics.
crankshaft is designed as a pivot pin general. Which connects the piston rod opposite the crankpin involving public, resulting in the firing intervals alternately 54 and 90 degrees. This unique rhythms provide an attractive V10 sound - music, very technical grand like that in racing. Two flaps in the exhaust system and tone adjust the volume as a function of engine speed and load.
Normally aspirated engines consume an average of 13.7 liters of fuel per 100 km (17.17 U.S. mpg) - fuel economy very good given extraordinary powers. FSI petrol direct injection system injects fuel into the combustion chamber up to 120 bar pressure. Turbulent mixture cool the cylinder wall, allowing the compression ratio of 12.5:1. A variable intake manifold and continuous adjustment of the chain-driven camshaft ensures that the combustion chamber is fully filled. Flaps in the intake ports to facilitate the formation of the mixture by pushing the movement in the air falling revenues.
The drivetrain: uncompromising traction
Gear changes in the GT R8 is handled by the R Tronic sequential manual transmission. Electrohydraulic clutch and switching units receive their orders electronically. It changes gear faster than the six-skilled driver can - in a tenth of a second at high loads and engine speeds.
Electronic management system offers automatic with Sport mode and the characteristics of Normal, and two manual level. This is controlled using the gear selector lever briefly about the central tunnel and two paddles in the steering wheel. Maximum thrust when the launch is guaranteed by the Launch Control - a program that manages a full engine acceleration at high speed and minimum wheel slip when starting.
permanent quattro all-wheel-drive is an ideal technology for a high-performance sports car. Viscous clutch located in front of the center sends 15 percent of the difference in power to the front axle and 85 percent to the rear wheels during normal driving. This split harmonizes perfectly with 43:57 weight distribution which Audi R8 GT's per cent. clutch send as many as 30 percent of power to the front wheels in milliseconds, if necessary. A mechanical locking differential on the rear axle further improve traction. This provides a restriction to 25 percent when the acceleration and up to 40 percent in the attack.
Even tauter chassis and more precise
The Audi R8 high-performance GT sports car driving machine with a heart of lateral acceleration and lightning-fast, almost instantaneous reaction. mid-mounted engine is close to the vertical axis; mass almost negligible during the change of direction quickly. GT R8 is a dynamic, precise and stable in almost every situation.
This followed the racing chassis design classic - double wishbones made out of aluminum to find wheels. That is, hydraulic power-assisted rack-and-wing has a ratio 16.3:1 steering wheel connects the driver directly and intimately and exactly the road. A manually adjustable coilover suspension, which lowers the body as much as 10 millimeters (0.39 in), is standard. a higher front and rear wheel camber make the level of infestation is more agile handling than the standard model.
Forged 19-inch wheels 8.5 J x 19 front and 11 J x 19 at the rear, and shod with size 235/35 and 295/30 tires, respectively. Audi 305/30 tires will increase along with the optional wheels on the rear axle on demand. Cup tires, which offer the ultimate in performance on dry roads, is available for race fans.
Audi mountain internally ventilated, carbon fiber ceramic brake discs standard. They are extremely durable and abrasion resistance and especially light. Together they weight nine kilograms (19.84 pounds) less than their steel counterparts of the same size. They measure 380 mm (14.96 in) in diameter in front and 356 mm (14.02 in) at the rear. Who fled to the friction ring helmets through elastic elements. Red brake calipers anodized aluminum - with six pistons at the front - which is exclusive to the GT R8.
ESP stabilization program specifically for the GT R8 and can switch to Sport mode simply by pressing a button to allow spectacular, but safe, oversteer when accelerating out of corners. The driver can deactivate the system fully for the trip to the race track.
Exclusive and dynamic: the interior and equipment
At Audi, reducing weight means better performance and efficiency, but does not sacrifice. The Audi R8 GT, which sells Audi in Germany for € 193,000, is equipped with automatic climate control system and power windows, navigation system with MMI operating logic and a powerful sound system.

Bimota’s DB8 superbike may look the spitting image of the 160bhp Ducati 1098-engined 2008 DB7, but it’s different in three distinct ways. It’s powered by the bigger 170bhp Ducati 1198 superbike motor, it has a pillion perch and it’s cheaper, to the tune of £1700.
The DB8 test bike we rode from their factory is easily the best Bimota we’ve ridden. The suspension is plush and controlled, the fuelling is spot-on, it’s devilishly fast, comes on sticky Dunlop D211 GP Racer tyres and thanks to its new twin seat layout and revised subframe, roomier for taller riders too.
For the first time in years Bimota now has an official UK importer, so you can actually get your hands on one of these beautifully-crafted pieces of exotica.
The DB8 is powered by Ducati’s magnificent 170bhp liquid-cooled 90° V-twin Testastretta 1198 engine, using Bimota’s own electronics. Twist the throttle and the power is smoothly delivered, instantly with no nasty hesitations or stutters. With just 189kg to push along fully-fuelled, acceleration is savage and the DB8 keeps pulling hard through the gears until the road runs out. This is a bone-fide superbike in every sense.
We’ve ridden exquisite-handling Bimotas and ones that handle so badly, you’d rather get off and walk. Fortunately, the DB8 we rode was set-up to perfection, offering plush ride quality for normal riding and lots of support and feel for when you turn the wick up. The only weak link is the brakes, which fade under hard use. The radial Brembo four-piston calipers are excellent usually, so this must be down to brake pad compound. The DB8 is nice and roomy for tall riders compared to the single seat DB7, which vastly improves the usability from a Sunday morning toy to an everyday sportsbike.
To achieve the lower price, Bimota have trimmed the spec of the DB8 slightly from the DB7, but you’re not exactly short changed. There’s still lots of lovely carbon fibre on show, high quality Marzocchi and Extreme Tech suspension components, Brembo brakes and swathes of perfectly milled, trademark Bimota billet aluminium pieces to dribble over.
The DB8 has a Ducati engine, so there should be no problem with reliability and There are now a number of officiall Bimota service points set-up at Ducati dealerships to take care of any potential problems. The build quality of a Bimota is never in question.
Exotic motorcycles like these can never be worth the big bucks asking price in the cold light of day. The DB8 isn’t worth £9205 more than a Ducati, it just isn’t. But if you think owning a hand-made, super-exclusive, fast, epic-handling, beautiful Italian motorcycle is worth paying the extra for, the Bimota DB8 won’t disappoint.
