2012 BMW 3-Series Review

2012 BMW 3-series cars typical of BMW. The new BMW 3 series does not seem too attractive style of their clients. In general, only a small design updates. 2012 BMW 3-Series Compact version is a sporty appearance to proceed without too much visual clutter and aggressive wheels stretched to the point of the body. 2012 BMW 3-Series sold in less than a small car BMW 1 Series coupe and convertible, and large companies, the more expensive 5-series format. 2012 BMW 3-series competes with the Audi A4, Cadillac CTS and Infiniti G37.


BMW 3-Series 2012 will again offer a wide range of styles widebody for this class. It consists of five passenger sedan and station wagon and coupe and four-seat cabriolet. And while the acceleration upper reference all rival BMW, braking and handling, there is no BMW 3-Series has not been defeated in the game itself.


The suspension of some of the spring sets tried and true double support (MacPherson) against a multi-link rear setup. Works well if there is not much reason to play with him. Engine choices should be the new turbo four-cylinder 328i and the N55 turbo six in the 335i. Expect the next-generation M3 to get a six-cylinder turbo. There is some hope that the dynamic behavior of the package will be optional.

2012 3 Series new showroom ready for model year of the 2013th U.S. new color choices, perhaps a change in option-package content, and probably take it with a special edition trim or equipment may select Model Year 2012 for BMW's best selling line. BMW 3-Series will be back in four body styles: coupe, sedan, wagon and convertible. Will again offer a choice of six-cylinder gas and diesel engines and rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive (AWD) and the title of demon-414-power V-8 model M3. This is a high price of compact cars that give service priority and 2012 BMW 3-Series prices begin again in mid-range of $ 30,000 and extends well into the category mid-$ 50,000 - and does not include models of ultra-high performance M3, which is examined separately -.


ZF automatic transmission should be the eight reports (8 HP). A manual transmission is almost certain to be available for the 335i at least, if not the 328i. What is really interesting to take advantage of BMW 8HP two other options offered by a gearbox of eight reports of dual-clutch transmission and the hybrid (electric nose in the transmission and extra batteries.) If a hybrid is that - and we hope be true, must be in the 328i and the stop / start technology included with it.

Focusing on the engines. For gasoline, maybe we will start from a 1.6 turbo 4-cylinder 150 hp, developed in France, PSA Peugeot-Citroën. An increase of 2.0 of 245 hp, 6 cylinder 258 horsepower and 306. Turbodiesel: 2.0 to 166 and 143 horsepower. Until the engines massive 290 horsepower. Anyway, if there are new drivers, updates of willpower, which says a lot about BMW's technological superiority is not a joke for increased power and torque to reduce emissions and fuel consumption.

Inevitable EfficientDynamics technologies including regenerative braking and start / stop the engine stops at traffic lights or tail, then restart your application. For the benefit of the environment (less emissions) and wallets (less efficient).



But the revolution in this sedan top of the middle class may be represented by a particular hybrid, a diesel engine (maybe a 3-cylinder turbodiesel with 180 horsepower 1.5), plus an electric motor. In addition, BMW is investing heavily in hybrid. And maybe, who knows, with the sub-brand of BMW 3-Series can also have a 100% electric, as the user experience with Active cut from series 1.



The four-door sedan is substantially reduced to 5-series, a longer, sleeker and smoother than the model it replaces, with none of the polarizing lines cut, the surfaces of the flame, and quirky details. Coupe is not just a two-door sedan, a lower roof line, but offers a damper on demand, from nose to tail, sides more sculpted, more steeply raked windshield and rear glass, a completely redesigned front and rear sport. Improve passive safety, the BMW has taken a prominent B-post, and then a fixed window on the back.

Unlike previous plans, is now likely to be replaced to maintain a retractable hard top issue, which is particularly popular in North America and China.

The car and the GT3 has a longer wheelbase for rear legroom more spacious luggage compartment. A full-length glass sunroof with tilt mode open / will be an opportunity for both models.

2011 Suzuki Kizashi Sport Review

April 1, 2010 - Live Floor 2010 New York Auto Show, Suzuki sets out a new sport version of the Suzuki Kizashi 2011. Almost perfect combination of design, performance and value of all do Kizashi robust, and economical car for anyone. And in addition to the sports package, we believe that Dave Arbogast bit 'of style and additional benefits make Kizashi more attractive.


Sport package includes a new front lower lip and extended, chrome surround and honeycomb grille blacked adds. Parties make a similar threshold with extensions and chrome strip show and receives a simple decklid spoiler. Inside, there is a sports steering wheel and contrast stitching throughout the cabin. All of this is the property of the suspension is sure to make Kizashi fun, attractive car.


Unfortunately, we are disappointed that Suzuki has no plans to add a V6 or a hybrid version of the Kizashi platform in the near future. This was a bit 'expected after General Motors and Suzuki separated, and V6 power plant is likely to come from GM. Prices are not announced until Kizashi Sport will go on sale in July.


We have always left impressed by the taut body control and precise handling presented by Suzuki Kizashi mid-size sedan, but a new model - the 2011 Sport Kizashi - promises a driving experience even more.

Although presented as a single model, Kizashi Sport is more along the lines of a set of options available on the upper levels Kizashi two linings. Available in both sedan and GTS SLS, your sports team adds a band slightly revised front strut revised lists, additional chrome, and a rear spoiler. Unique 18-inch wheels are two pounds lighter than before, and engineers Kizashi features a revised suspension tuning, which lowers the ride height by 10 mm.

The suspension changes, it seems, is the measure of the modernization of the mechanical systems for the gifted Kizashi Sport. The power always comes with a 2.4-liter DOHC I-4, which is rated at 185 horsepower and 170 lb-ft of torque at 4000 rpm. A six-speed manual transmission is standard but a continuously variable transmission is optional (and mandatory in all-wheel drive is ordered). Choose CVT reduces engine power to 180 horses.


Inside Kizashi Sport receives some unique features, including revision of the front sport seats with perforated leather on the steering wheel. Buyers must choose the black leather seats, contrasting stitching added to the shift boot and parking brake boot and the seats themselves.

Suzuki has not yet determined the price of the model, but we expect to hit the sport to carry a modest price increase of $ 23.234 and $ 25.134 base price of the GTS and SLS, respectively. Look for additional information when the cars arrive at retailers nationwide in August 2010.

Ferrari Scuderia Review

Here's a surprise: The new version developed on high-performance will not be called F430 Challenge Stradale like many thought, but will be known as the Scuderia, Italian stable. It is stable as a house for a powerful prancing horse, not as a mindset that continues to evade Lindsay Lohan.



The rest of the car is what you expect from a fancier version of Ferrari. The engineers concentrated on reducing the weight and increase the flow of the standard F430. The Scuderia weighs 2755 pounds - a savings of 220 pounds - while producing an additional 27 horsepower over the F430 for a total of 510 ponies. This amounts to a power to weight ratio of an output of 5.4 kg. Bravissimo!

Ferrari has not forgotten the rest of the car, the engineering team's latest F1 program of the company. An update brings the transmission shift up to 60 milliseconds fast as lightning, while the traction and stability also receive a race-inspired update.
