Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe

The Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe is a variant with folding hard roof MX-5 and is available at Sportive "finished". It is a car to enjoy driving because it is very stable, not to walk comfortably because it is loud and has little room for two passengers.

The Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe is more expensive than the equivalent version roof of canvas (2.0 litre engine with six gears), but can compensate pay for it because it has some advantages of convenience and functionality compared to the version of canvas roof.
The roof of the Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe is powered by only release a latch and pressing a button for a few seconds. Among the versions of the MX-5 roofed hard folding canvas roof and there are certain differences in the structure, but for practical purposes, and the dynamic qualities of the interior are very similar.
Compared with the models mentioned, the Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe is a radically different car Utility and size. For a sum of money like there is a cabriolet two places that do not derive from a car closed. There is no other two-seater cabriolet of similar size and power is cheaper: a BMW Z4 Roadster 2.0i has a higher price and less equipment (comparative tab). A Mercedes-Benz SLK 200 K is much more expensive (comparative tab).
It measures less than 4.0 m has only two seats with not much space (people over 1.85 may not be comfortable). There is a car designed for traveling because it is usually noisy. It is a car that completely satisfies those who, above all other qualities enjoy driving on roads slow. She has some quick reactions and sport like few cars, a special touch and, despite its size, does not transmit road in the sense of being a small car, but a very solid car at the same time as lightweight.

With the limitations of a car so small and low (there are people who will find it difficult to enter and leave), his body and interior are well resolved: the relatively good visibility in all directions need little space to rotate, the controls are usually in a comfortable position of power and there are enough slots to place objects.

Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe Interior

Most of the plastic in the interior have no padding. Although generally a soft plastic tends to be better than a hard, the Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe seem to be very good (also good adjustment and auction) and give the impression that will endure the test of time well. Of the remaining 40 per cent (240 units with canvas roof) expected that most will be 1.8 litre engines with the finish grade.
It is a car made for those drivers who find pleasure in driving accuracy steer the car in slow roads, and give more value to the stability that the acceleration in line. Have the reactions that distinguish a good sport: there is a very short interval between the actions of the driver and its impact on the trajectory of the car. Enter very well in the curves, support changing rapidly, slows down a lot and felt exactly how it is supported in the car each time.
As a car is alive and reactions bit buffered, move quickly with it requires an adaptation period greater than that of a car "normal" or even moderately strong. However, broad roads have an accurate linear stability because it is only too likely to continue over the irregularities of the road. It is safe because slows much and has stability control as standard. You can disconnect, but take it connected at all times is the most secure.
The work he has done with the suspension of the Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe gives a satisfactory result. The suspension is stiff, but it is far from being insufferable: Mazda has assembled some very good shock absorbers that are able to hold the body properly, to give a reasonable comfort and keeping the wheels in contact with the ground when the floor is broken. This shows that a car does not have to be more stable regard harder suspension, for example, a buffer dry and excessively harsh, makes the body rebound and loses the path abruptly when the car passes through certain irregularities curve.
The relative flexibility of the suspension which has the Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe (at least in the initial part of the trail) makes the body has a significant roll (picture), taking into account the low that is the body. The motor seems to me good. What it leads to appreciate is that if the ceiling is on the body and there are potholes, there are certain vibrations of the structure that reach more subdued than with the roof stay in its compartment.
The level of stiffness and solidity of the car I think bigger than usual in a cabriolet their price. The Mazda has a good starting point for having good torsional stiffness and not vibrate in potholes: is designed from the outset to be a cabriolet, have a small size and only two seats.
The 160 hp engine gives an acceleration of normal capacity for its power and the weight of this car (which is rather slight). Like other atmospheric engine, we should bring it up high for a system that gives acceleration close to the maximum. For normal driving, not at the top, it is nice because it has a rapid response to the accelerator.
Overall, the interior is slightly isolated from the engine. On the one hand, little is leading to a regime high, the sound of the engine comes with sharpening the occupants; on the other hand, also come certain vibrations (which gives some sense of roughness).
The consumption can be considered rather high, considering that this is a car and not much lighter load. In a tour of mountain road at a very fast pace, but not at the top, spent 15.7 l/100 km.

Lexus IS

Lamborghini Murcielago

Always the bull is the symbol of power, aggressiveness, and courage: these features of all cars signed Lamborghini.

Bullfighter and bull form symbolic representations in the fighting. This animal-mating antithetical elegance is also a symbiosis of violence and beauty that makes the spectacle of bullfighting particularly attractive.
So faithful to the tradition he wants, always, the bull as a symbol of the prestigious car manufacturer founded by Ferruccio Lamborghini - just born under the sign of the bull - the head of Automobili Lamborghini have decided to baptize the last born of a noble family with the name of a bull. And so, after recalling names or bulls that are linked to the bullfights as Miura, Jslero, Urraca, Bravo, Jalpa and Espada (the latter term indicating the sword, that is the weapon of the bullfighter, and traversed the bullfighter himself) it is now a Murcielago - which among other things in Spanish means "bat" - a new name but certainly effective to express the dynamism, elegance and power of a sporting breed which is the last Lamborghini born. "

Lamborghini Murcielago LP640

"The Lamborghini Murcielago is a car Coupe 2 places and 2 ports (the latter with the opening now feature" vertical ") based on the typical layout Lamborghini: Central rear V12 engine, transmission according to the outline of the House change of place in front of the engine rear differential and "integrated" in the power plant, permanent wheel drive with viscous center coupling.

2003 Lamborghini Murcielago Interior

This layout, strength of the projects Lamborghini for more than three decades, gives an optimal weight distribution (58% and 42% rear front) with obvious positive effects on the characteristics of traction, braking and handling. Even with the suspension (independent articulated quadrilateral) represents the most advantageous for a GT car of high performance and are in line with the Lamborghini tradition. The exterior body panels are carbon fiber, with the exception of the roof and door panels, which are made of steel.
In the rear there are two taken active air for cooling the engine system VACS (Variable Air-flow Cooling System ") with a variable aperture section. In addition, to ensure a smooth aerodynamic balance at any speed, the tail was a wing to tilt also varies. Depending on the speed of the car, the rear wing can take three different positions: 0 to 130 km / h closed, between 130 and 220 km / h partially open (50th) and over 220 km / h fully open (70 ° approx).
The exterior mirrors are electrically folding, and arms support and cap of considerable size to allow for "milestones" the rear fenders that are very pronounced, especially taken in open air, but without compromising the stability of the same even at high speeds. The "mission" was to draw a worthy heir to the Lamborghini Diablo: the new car would be exciting, unmistakable, but also safe and ergonomic.
Surely the line Lamborghini Murcielago is linked to the genome of the Lamborghini and its plan will honor the most significant icons formal. In its line are the architecture or, more precisely, the structuring of surfaces and the wedge of the Countach, the sensual tension of the Miura volumes and proportions outside the town of Diablo, with its advanced cockpit.
The Lamborghini Murcielago is characterized in particular from the body of the passenger car: the idea is "a people", made famous by the Countach and Diablo, which puts tension in a single arc from front to rear and stresses thus form a wedge.
The Lamborghini Murcielago is a car superlative, whose mechanical structure does not, nor requires no imagination: its line must reflect this and therefore does not present any superfluous ornamentation, no gadgets. In a word: a pure line. With a strong momentum of athleticism, obtained by reducing the visual changes and amplifying the masses "muscle", situated above and around the wheels. The curves of the body, with their complex tensions, interact and merge into one.
Its silhouette, whose proportions are dictated by strong connotations formal and edges, takes inspiration from the solutions adopted on famous "stealth". The dynamic surface for cooling and downforce and then have originated in the aeronautical field, in which, more than any other, has the function to dictate the form.

KIA Magentis

The new KIA Magentis is on sale from 18,656 euros for the basic version of gasoline. It's a completely different from the previous car on the outside and inside.

The KIA Magentis has elements and mechanical equipment common with the Hyundai Sonata. The most economical diesel version is priced at 21,078 euros. Among the models of similar characteristics, only the Hyundai Sonata 2.0 CRDi TGV I Comfort is cheaper, but has significantly less equipment.
The KIA Magentis four-door saloon and front traction is advisable for anyone who seeks a combination of many elements: a saloon with good relationship between price and equipment, large interior space, a diesel engine pleasant to use and will not mind too that his conduct roadside.
There is great breadth and space available for passengers post: is one of the cars with greater width and space for the legs of the category. In addition, the seats are comfortable.
The KIA Magentis suspension is soft, which can cause movements of the body unpleasant under certain circumstances. Nor has an address with good touch.
With regard to previous KIA Magentis, the new increases in all its exterior dimensions except the width now measures 4,735 mm in length (5 mm), 1,805 mm wide (15 mm less) and 1,480 mm in height (70 mm).

The wheelbase increases 20 mm to 2,720 mm. Therefore, is slightly longer than a MAZDA6, almost like a Ford Mondeo and slightly shorter than a Volkswagen Passat.

KIA Magentis Interior

The KIA Magentis boot capacity, according to SAE, is 420 liters (9% more than in the previous model). The measurement standard in Europe VDA has not been specified, but taking into account the increase of 9%, is about 500 litres.

KIA Magentis Engine

There are two trim levels and equipment for the new KIA Magentis: 'EX II "and" E II. The version with the 2.0 l gasoline engine has finished 'E I'. The KIA Magentis 2.7 V6 is available only with 'EX II. The Diesel may choose both levels of equipment.
According to the provisional list of equipment, all KIA Magentis are: stability control (ESP), six airbags, active head restraints, climate control, power driver's seat, trip computer, controlling the cruising speed (diesel and V6), automatic lights , Alarm, alloy wheels of 16 ", electric and heated mirrors and sensors helps the rear parking lot.
Versions' EX II "have also browser, Bluetooth connectivity for the mobile phone, rain sensor, leather upholstery with heated front seats and electric, automatic dimming inside mirror and alloy wheels of 17". This version has equipment that is optional in almost all models of similar characteristics, such as the browser or leather upholstery.
You can not keep some elements of hardware that do have other similar models, like xenon headlights, lighting active cornering or lane-changing assistant.
The new KIA Magentis is available with three engines. The gasoline is a four-cylinder 2.0 litre 145 hp and a six-cylinder 2.7 litre with 188 hp. The first is new, while the six-cylinder engine is a variant of which bears the Sportage. The diesel engine is a four-cylinder 2.0 litre engine capacity and 140 hp power, with particulate filter.
Versions with 2.0 l engine change have manual series (five speeds the petrol and diesel on six), and optionally, the Diesel can be associated with a shift four-speed automatic. The KIA Magentis 2.7 V6 can be bought only with an automatic gearbox five marches.
It has some benefits and a normal consumption, according to its power and weight, and similar to those of other similar models. The maximum speed of the diesel version (201 kph), and to a lesser extent the acceleration (10.4 s), are somewhat worse for offering some of its competitors, such as the Peugeot 407 and Volkswagen Passat.
With the renewal of the KIA Magentis, Carnival and Sorento, KIA has updated models in almost all market segments. Over the course of 2006, the range of models that KIA will also change the Carens and Opirus.
The new KIA Magentis notable for having a large interior space for occupants, especially for passengers on the rear seats. As can be seen the width available for driver and co-pilot is also very good: 143 cm, just like there are three cars that exceed the KIA Magentis.
Given its scope later, a car that can accommodate enough comfort to three passengers in the back seat, provided they are not very high body mass. Along with the Citroen C5 and the Volvo S60, is the model with greater width rear (142 cm). The space for the legs (76 cm) is also excellent, only the Ford Mondeo and Opel Signum manage to overcome it. The rear height (91 cm) is not as good, causing that occupant of more than 1.80 m tall rock on the roof.
To find a model that much more livable KIA Magentis car must go much larger. The seats are comfortable, have enough lateral grip, and leather upholstery transpires correctly. The rear seat can be folded into sections; to do so we must pull the controls that exist in the trunk.
The KIA Magentis internal adjustment is good. Some materials such as plastic used in the bottom of the dashboard and doors, do not give quality printing. The plastic top of the dashboard and doors have an average quality and good touch.
The KIA Magentis engine is performing well, is very smooth and very pleasant to use. It has good response above 2,000 rpm, and allows joining roads and perform overtaking with sufficient.
The noise of the engine, when you turn to low and medium regime, is very content. With the engine cold and when it takes the engine to a high regime, noise hinders the talks at a normal volume. The six-speed manual has a good operation; it can change very quickly and with sufficient precision.
The sixth running of 48.3 mph with tyres 215/50 VR17, is struggling to move swiftly in the KIA Magentis steep slopes, being necessary to put a march less. It is long: a maximum speed in the sixth, turn 4,160 rpm, above the maximum power regime.
In sequential mode, is the driver who decides when to change gear unless we arrive at 4,300 rpm, when it automatically becomes the march immediately above. As in the automatic mode, is slow to engage the gears.
The KIA Magentis suspension is independent in both axes. It is something soft, which causes, driving on roads that do not have a firm too well, it has some pitching and movements of the body unpleasant. The suspension requires that driving the KIA Magentis is smooth so as not to miss the comfort on board.

Jaguar XK 3.5 V8

The new version Jaguar XK 3.5 V8 of the Jaguar XK, which outwardly fails to submit differences with the XK 4.2, is equipped with the AJ-V8 engine 3.5 that produces an output of 256 hp at 6250 rpm, and develops a maximum torque of 334 Nm.

The new Jaguar XK 3.5 V8 is on sale from € 75,500 as Coupe and € 83,800 in the Convertible.

To adapt to this new Jaguar XK 3.5 V8 engine was redesigned system intake and exhaust, besides having calibrated the torque curve to give a character similar to the XK 4.2 V8.
The design of monoblock aluminum led to an increase in stiffness, a decrease of radiant noise, improving performance and refinement of the engine. The timing of continuous variable cam allows a much faster response to the demand and driving conditions, while the variation in the length of the intake manifolds (variable geometry) has achieved an improvement in volumetric efficiency and performance engine.

Jaguar XK 3.5 V8 Interior


The delay taking the time to reduce heating of the catalyst and the resulting need for an enrichment of the mixture starts in cold, helping to reduce consumption and exhaust emissions. With its perfection, the use of primers "multi-hole" improves the spraying of fuel inside the combustion chamber, increasing engine power.
The engine management system (EMS) has electronic engine controls in response to the requests of the accelerator pedal. In case of failure of the engine, the EMS system activates the "limp home", which allows the car to drive albeit with a reduced performance.
Any weight reduction translates into a more effective response and better acceleration. There are many components in aluminum and magnesium alloy, the more resistant and durable as aluminum but 30 times lighter.
In summary the value of performance Jaguar XK 3.5 V8 lead with acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h in just 7.6 seconds and reaches a top speed of 243 km / h. The AJ-V8 engine 3.5 completes the current range of engines family XK, made newest generation of engine Jaguar AJ-aspirated V8 4.2 liters and 298 hp from 416 hp supercharged. The 3.5 is capable of delivering 256 hp (188 kW) and a torque of 334 Nm at 4200 g / m.
The Jaguar XK 3.5 V8 is equipped com the automatic six-speed, at the top of its class, and the sequential change with Jaguar steering wheel, allowing passages running extremely fast, in milliseconds.
The fuel consumption of Jaguar XK 3.5 V8 are: urban 17.2 l/100km; extra urban 8.1 l/100km, combined: 11.3 l/100km, respecting the anti-pollution legislation Euro 4 and incorporates a recirculation system exhaust gas. The capacity of the reservoir is 70.6 liters.
A wide range of equipment of the latest technology ensures a dynamic, driving pleasure and safety updated version of the CATS suspension system and the system dynamic stability control (Trac DSC), the system of traction ( TCS), the control system of the tire pressure (TPMS), electronic brake distribution (EBD) com ABS system, the system of emergency braking assistance (EBA), the electronic parking brake (EPB); control Adaptive cruise speed (ACC), the Bluetooth system, the system bonnet elevating a pedestrian protection (PDBS), the touch screen to control the navigation system, air conditioning, sound system and the phone.
The staple of the top model is the body entirely in aluminum, lighter and more highly secure, built with the latest technologies and techniques riveting and joining with epoxy adhesive, derived from aerospace. As a result, the XK is able to accelerate faster, consume less and produce fewer emissions, improving at the same time, levels of security, soundproofing and vibration.

Invicta S1

Invicta is a new brand in the UK, which now starts to sell a sport model called Invicta S1.

The idea is that the Invicta S1 is a luxury coupe in the style of the Jaguar XK, but with very good dynamic qualities and characteristics close to those of cars of racing.

The Invicta S1 is a two-seater coupe motor central striker, with steel chassis and carbon fiber bodywork. It is a very light car and the first to have a body of carbon fiber made from one piece.
The Invicta S1 engine and transmission are those of the Ford Mustang Cobra SVT: a V8 engine capacity of 4.6 liters and about 320 hp. It has rear traction, and series, manual gearbox five-speeds. Optionally you can attach a manual six-or an automatic four.
The design of the bodywork is given its own brand, with the collaboration of a designer Leigh Adams. It measures 4.4 meters long, the same as a BMW Z8, but it is much lower: 1225 mm, is very low height for absolutes in terms, and in a coupe of front engine (the Corvette or the Viper is even more low).
In the United Kingdom it cost 69,950 pounds, about 111,000 euros. The mark "Invicta" existed before, between 1924 and 1933. The Invicta is now responsible for Michael Bristow, and the company belongs to the group ITS Ltd.
The frame of the Invicta S1 is a lattice of steel tubes. On this structure, sticks carbon fiber bodywork. The body is independent, but it seems that has a certain structural function; Invicta refers to this set with the term 'semi- monocook. "
The total weight (according to standard EC) is 1243 kg, very little for a car of this size. A BMW Z8, which has the chassis and aluminum bodywork, weighs 1660 kilograms. A Ferrari 360 Modena weighs 1390 kilograms.
The bodywork is in one piece with a type of carbon fiber called "ZPREG", whose manufacturing process is simpler and less expensive than the normal carbon fiber. Invicta estimated that savings in weight with this material, in relation to a body of steel, is about 70 percent.
The Invicta S1 frame alone weighs 160 kg. It's made with square section tubes welded together by type of TIG. According to Invicta, the entire frame is below the axis of balancing Invicta S1. The closer to each other in the center of gravity and rocking, less swings Invicta S1.
The Invicta S1 suspension is deformable parallelogram in the two axes, with elements joining articulated steel caps on polyurethane (made by PowerFlex). The springs are helical. Invicta has provided a hint at possible use of this car, and this has a wide margin adjustment to the hardness of the dampers (compression and extension), the stabilizer, the angle of fall and convergence.
The brakes are AP Racing; leads drilled and ventilated discs, 350 x 35 front and 340 x 35 the rear. The fittings are fixed, the six-piston front and the back four. It is a very large team of brakes for a car of this weight; a Ferrari 360 Modena is smaller discs, but weighs more. Curiously, the entire team is Brake AP, unless the parking brake, which is Brembo.
The Invicta S1 has a leadership hydraulically assisted (Lucas), with three turns of the wheel between stops. The wheels are 255/35 19 front and 275/35 ZR19 rear. The design of the tires is British, but is manufactured in Italy. In the equipment there is serial or optionally browser (VDO), installation of telephone or xenon headlights.
The engine is the one who carries the Ford Mustang Cobra SVT. It is manufactured on the premises of SVT and carries an insert with the names of those who have mounted. It is a V8 90 ° with aluminum block and cylinder heads, weighs 240 kg. Their actions are 90.2 x 90.0, which gives 4601 cm ³. It has two camshafts in each cylinder head and four valves per cylinder and its compression ratio is 9.85 to 1.
It does not give much power to its engine capacity: 320 hp at 5900 rpm, the specific power is 69.6 hp / l. The maximum torque is 404 Nm at 4800 rpm, which is also not much for the engine capacity. The benefits that states are provisional Invicta: around 270 km / hr speed limit and 5.3 s in the acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h. That is, is slower than a Porsche 911, which has the same power.
The gearbox of the Invicta S1 is standard Borg Warner (Model T 45, the same one that bears the Mustang). It is placed below the engine, so that the gear is right on top of it. It has five gears; optionally there is a manual and an automatic six-four.
The differential is BTR (Australian), which has built a viscous coupling. It's the same kind of differential that carry other British sports such as the Jensen S-V8 or several models of TVR.

Hyundai Grandeur

Your new representative travel Hyundai sedan Grandeur 3.3 V6 GLS is more than fully equipped. There remains for the list of additional equipment not much left - except for special sunroof and everything is already in the standard equipment, even the automatic climate control and navigation device with a large screen in the center console.

The Hyundai Grandeur is the largest sedan of the Korean manufacturer and its first trip into the category of luxury vehicles. But the design, it is modest and elegant, the Great therefore, with prominent brands in cooler-optics, gently ascending side line and a gentle rounding roof à la Coupe.
To the rear wheels blows the body a little on the cheeks. The stern remembers clearly with the remote shoulders at the latest Volvo models and shows downturn in the trunk lid even a hint Maybach.
Under the cowl, however, works only a high rotating six-cylinder V-engine with 3.3 litres capacity and 171 kW (235 hp) at 6000 revolutions per minute (rpm). Its maximum torque of 304 Nm is located at 3500 rpm.
This leads to quite impressive driving performance: It creates it with its standard five-speed automatic 7.8 seconds from 0 to 100 km / h and reaches a maximum speed of nearly 240 km / h. Alternatively, there is the Hyundai Grandeur with a modern 2.2l common rail diesel engine with 145 horsepower.
The consumption is 10.2 litres with Hyundai, on average. We were at our tours with a high share of the highway intersection, however, at 14 litres. This is the empty 1.8-ton sedan from nearly 4.90 metres in length but also move quickly, perhaps not the typical movement of the target group of Hyundai Grandeur may be.

Hyundai Grandeur Interior

The target number one, the Koreans appeared to be Americans in mind. Much of the GLS is reminiscent of US-Limousines falls only a few classes better. The interior with leather everywhere, root around and good wood processing exceeds the US standard by far. The fittings are factually well-kept and read. This is the Hyundai Grandeur but not stop, even when its target groups in Europe to find friends.

Hyundai Grandeur Engine

The view of the large pond is also when driving. As long as the Hyundai Grandeur is not just the spores can remain up to the maximum highway speed of 70 miles per hour, and even to the local highway indicative gentle glide speed and comfortable feathers announced. At higher speeds the wind sings his loud song, and the steering is nervous. That is no concern, as long as you are not at the same time trying, at the edge of the screen, the tiny buttons for the radio, or even to use the "eyes powder" to decipher the function of these buttons is declared.
Safety of Hyundai Grandeur equipment is completely up to side airbags for the rear passengers who otherwise can not complain. The front passengers feel safe uncrowned, because the back is unusually generous, more generous than anyone with a wheelbase of just 2.80 metres otherwise expected. Even for long noses places remains plenty of room. The trunk filled with 523 litres claim to be a great trip limousine.
In a few weeks for the soccer World Cup in Germany is the Hyundai Grandeur as a VIP vehicle. Then he astonished some comments from celebrities listen. Because so much space, such a pleasant environment and this relaxed gliding is not expected when the Hyundai Grandeur first encounter. Its true greatness is only after opening the rear doors.
European premiere in Paris is the Hyundai Grandeur 2.2-liter CRDi, the Hyundai step in the upper class segment. The Hyundai Grandeur 2.2-liter CRDi aggregate position of the Grandeur even closer to the European market.
The economical power plant is an ideal engine for the 4.90-meter-long luxury class sedan. One of the main characteristics of the four-cylinder unit is the improved quietness.
The Hyundai Grandeur 2.2-liter CRDi engine also identify key technologies, the Hyundai for better power yield has developed.
Thus, the common rail diesel engine, for example, the latest generation of a turbocharger with variable geometry shovel VGT (Variable Turbine Geometry).
Harmonic force development, strong drive, high reserves and lower fuel consumption are the other features of the new unit with four valves per cylinder. Continuous progress represent a capacity of 114 kW (155 hp) and a maximum torque of 340 Newton metres lush at 2000 rpm.
The Hyundai Grandeur 2.2 CRDi with a comfortable five-step with second automatic. The modern aggregate meets the Euro 4 emission standards and is equipped with a particulate filter.

Honda Jazz Sport

Externally fashionably-striking with prominent front part, on the inside in relation to the surprisingly spacious dimensions - that's currently the leading group of small cars, in Europe at least 25 percent of total car sales.

Externally an eye-catcher has only 3.83 meters long Honda Jazz Sport still inside its outstanding merits, and especially under the sheet. With a clever use concept, including lush place, for example, it offered young mothers.
Other drivers and occupants will certainly not opposed to the generous sense of space with a lot of head, leg and elbow freedom, but still tightly designed comfortable seats, a variety of practical shelves, and the acting quality materials and the clean processing. The height-adjustable steering wheel and shifter are well at hand, the user is no mystery, and the instruments are also against the light to read without effort.
A particular advantage deserves the Honda Jazz Sport through his trunk volume of 380 litres, good accessibility and, above all, the trunk-variability.
The split rear seat can be equipped with a hand grip sink into the ground, so that a completely flat load floor. That is now no longer unique, but the ease with which the Jazz quickly in a small vans with then 1323 liters volume for a payload of 415 kilograms of payload turn, impressed again.

The 1.4-litre engine with 83 hp / 61 kW and a maximum torque of 119 Nm at 5700 rpm, a top speed of 170 km / h and acceleration from 0 to 100 in 13 seconds on the paper reveals not what the Motor really can afford. In connection with the precise and smooth and the short circuit graduated five-speed gearbox is undoubtedly one of the jazz rider cars. Only the steering could stalwart forward with more urgency, and thus better roadway contact.

Honda Jazz Sport Interior

The standard Electronic Stability Program, which at Honda VSA (Vehicle Stability Assist) states, takes relatively late. But in the case of a case good to know that one of these "auxiliary force" is involved. ABS, airbags for driver and front passenger and side airbags in front complete the safety equipment.

Honda Jazz Sport Engine

Thanks to extensive comfort equipment and realistic gasoline consumption - despite the speedy driving style - from nearly seven litres of Super, waits for the Honda Jazz Sport sport with a good price-performance ratio. On Tools are available on request a metallic coating, an electric glass sunroof hub and a DVD navigation system.

Dodge Caliber

Dodge Caliber has traction front, three different engines, two exchange rates, one manual and one automatic and five levels of equipment. Not all combinations of Dodge Caliber engine, gearbox and equipment will be possible.


The Dodge Caliber is a model atypical. It has some characteristics which resemble a whole field, as it looks, others a minivan, as its dimensions, and Dodge is going to sell as tourism five doors, even if mechanically like a car - the Jeep Compass - will be sold as all-terrain light. However, the Dodge Caliber and Compass are distinguished by the height (1,632 mm the first, second 1,533) and traction system.
For dimensions, the Dodge Caliber will be one of the largest among the models that have their price bodywork of five doors. It measures 4,417 mm long, a length similar to that of passenger cars with bodywork family as the Alfa Romeo Crosswagon, the Peugeot 307 Break or the Toyota Corolla Wagon. Other cars with this length, but do not have family bodywork are the Mazda3 five-door (4,420 mm) or SEAT Toledo (4,458 mm).
The Dodge Caliber, the wheelbase (2,635 mm) and tracks (1.520/1.520 mm) are somewhat larger than normal cars in five doors up to 4.5 metres in length. It may take three engines, two petrol 150 hp or 156 hp and 140 hp diesels, all are placed transversely.
The diesel engine is a 2.0 litre gives maximum power of 140 hp and enough to move with the agility that weighs almost 1,500 kg the Dodge Caliber. At cold start, is noisy and vibrates intensely for a couple of seconds, also in motion is heard, but it is annoying. The change is actuated six gears smoothly and is fast enough for a normal driving.

The Dodge Caliber petrol engines are manufactured Global Engine for some brands of DaimlerChrysler to Mitsubishi and Hyundai. The 150-hp is a 1.8 litre is mated to a manual gearbox five speeds, the 156-hp is a 2.0 litre engine capacity and is coupled to an automatic gearbox to drive continuous JATC JF011E; This box can operate it manually with six fixed relations, which are selected with the lever ( 'AutoStick').

Dodge Caliber Interior

Its operation in manual mode is good because it makes the changes quickly and reduces in circumstances where other machines do not. Over the course of 2007 will reach the Dodge Caliber SRT4, with a petrol engine 2.4 l turbocharged giving 304 hp.
The Dodge Caliber suspension is independent of type in the two axes. In city roads or fast car is a comfortable well absorbed because the potholes and the bodywork is not much balance. In roads and circulating at a slow pace is high in soft extension: if accelerate sharply in second or third gear to exit the curve, pitching the car and is slightly easier than any of the front wheels lose traction.
The address has a lot of assistance, which facilitates its use in city but for road is excessive. It is also somewhat vague, which accentuate the effect tires that have a high profile for what is normal today.
The diesel-engine version carries serial control stability. The leading one of petrol can not have it by now. The Dodge Caliber is produced, along with the Jeep Compass, which has DaimlerChrysler plant in Belvidere (Illinois, USA), which was the Neon.
The position at the wheel is good even though it can be regulated only in height. Going higher than sitting in a tourism promotes the vision of the road above the car that carried forward.
The subject offered the front seats is normal. The leather versions that are 'SXT Limited "I have liked less than the cloth, because slipping a lot and are hot. 'SXT Sport' are part of the console and upholstery of the seats of a color that blends with the body,
Behind both the sidewalk as the backs are flat and therefore not subject the body. Although the width available could fit three people, the bulky size of the tunnel (in other versions of the Dodge Caliber is no country with traction at all) prevents the central passenger can put your feet comfortably. The console that goes on the tunnel also makes it difficult to move from one side to another seat because there is almost no place to fit the foot.
From version "SE", the right front seat can reduce the forward and rear seats are divided into two parts according to the proportion 60:40; addition, the seat back angle may be changed at 12.
The trunk has a volume of 524 l, this measure is not in accordance with the VDA method. Their shapes are irregular because the suspension occupies part of it. It is covered with carpeting, the floor either.
The cover to cover luggage is not hidden in its entirety and you can see from the rear windows part of what you have been stored in the trunk (the cheapest version does not). The maximum height of an object to fit underneath it is 37 cm. The height above ground load is 69 cm. Under the floor of the trunk is the spare wheel, which is far different from the rest.
There are three panels of light on the roof. Anyone who is on the trunk also has a rechargeable flashlight LEDs. Other details which are not normal to find other cars in its price wires are covered with electrical tape in sight (rear speakers) or a mesh. The sound of the doors to close was not good.
The voids that there are distributed by the carrier had no coating to prevent what you let them make noise. In the dashboard there are two gloves placed one above the other. The bottom has two distinct spaces, one of which serves to store up to four bottles of 0.5 litres capacity and in versions' SXT, is refrigerated.
Under there is a gap in the number of discs that fit into their boxes. The two front coasters have a ring that is illuminated in the dark. In the rear seats there is no place to store things, except a few coasters.
