Version of Consumer Reports Best Cars

Elements of the assessment is comfort, the car acceleration, engine performance, and fuel.

Honda managed to occupy first place as best car manufacturer survey conducted by Consumer Reports magazine in the United States. Consumer Report is an independent automotive magazine based in New York City, USA. Honda managed to rank first by bagging 74 of the scale value of 100. Honda managed to lead from Subaru and Toyota, each scored 73 and 71. The next position is occupied Ford, including Lincoln (67), including Hyundai Kia (66), Mazda (65), including the Infiniti Nissan (65), Volkswagen, including Audi (63), Mercedes-Benz (57), BMW (57), General Motors including Chevrolet, GMC, Buick, and Cadillac (56), and Chrysler including Dodge and Jeep (43).

In addition to providing assessments to car makers, the results of this survey published recently also provide an assessment of the number of cars. Honda Fit, which in Indonesia known as the Honda Jazz, received an award as the best value and best budget car. Honda Fit managed to excel than 270 cars are tested during the assessment process takes place. Some aspects of the assessment element is the comfort factor, the acceleration of the car, engine performance and fuel consumption rate. Under the Honda Fit, Consumer Reports also won the Hyundai Elantra and the Chevrolet Avalanche.

Nissan GT-R VS Porsche 911 Turbo

Nissan GT-R sedan considered the most bizarre in-class supercar. Just a quick defeat by the Porsche 911 Turbo S when pitted against on one circuit in Germany, the principal of Japan to expand by adding technology ATTESA E-TS (Advanced Total Traction Engineering System Electornic Torque Split) on all four wheels which adopts a motion all-wheel drive (all wheel drive). Technology itself is not new for Nissan and Infiniti.

Nissan was curious about the performance of the GT-R a little below the Porsche 911 Turbo S. In fact, they both have the power 530 HP engine 6-cylinder turbo-double and double clutch transmissions. With that similarity, when accelerate from 0-100 km per hour, the GT-R needed 3.5 seconds, was 0.2 faster competitors. Perhaps, because the GT-R weighs 150 kg heavier.

Another factor, which BorgWarner dual clutch transmission on Nissan, when the shift takes 200 milliseconds. Medium gearbox Porsche with MDD only 8 milliseconds.

Now, to overcome the shortage, the Nissan engineers try to add ATTESA E-TS. For the version of the GT-R which uses two parallel coupling as in front-engine, ATTESA E-TS is dikustom. With this enhancement, when the car in a stationary state, the system sends 2 percent of the available torque to the front wheels and 98 percent to the rear wheels.

When the car road, flat torque was shared 50:50. This is thanks to the use of multiple sensors (four in the ABS brakes, three in the G sensor, girbok and engine ECU) and UFO technology from Nissan. As usage of these two coupling as an almost parallel. Power is sent to the front wheels in particular through the open differential.

If, one of the front wheel (it will spin faster than a flat on the asphalt) while maneuvering around the corner, tires that will brake automatically. Thus, the sensor that controls all four wheels, depending on driving.

What is clear, with the development, the system of all-wheel drive GT-R become pro-active and bold pitted against each Porsche 911 Turbo S.

Five Most Environmentally Friendly Car

These cars can make the fuel efficiency of 80 miles per gallon (mpg). Modern cars often have a shortage because wasteful of fuel. Though the current world oil prices continue creeping up, which of course can drain your pockets of motorists. However, now the more green cars (green cars) that can save fuel, even to perform efficiency of 80 miles per gallon (mpg). In addition, green cars also produce lower carbon dioxide emissions, which of course is so purpose of making green cars.
Here, a number of green cars is the most economical and low emissions in the UK :

1. Smart ForTwo CDI - 86g/km

This is the most economical car sold in the United Kingdom. Indeed, this car can not be used speeding. This car also can not sell expensive when I want to sell anymore. But this car is the most fuel-efficient cars and low emission (86g/km). Unfortunately, only two-passenger capacity.

 2. Toyota Auris Hybrid T4 - 89g/km

This car is a hybrid car from Toyota's latest output. These cars use a petrol-electric running gear is the same as the Prius. However, only emissions of 74.3 mpg. Aerodynamic model that makes the Auris is also worthy of being your city car.

3. Toyota Prius T3 - 89g/km

Toyota Prius is the output in addition to Auris. This car is capable of producing emissions by using fuel 89g/km and only 72.4 mpg. In terms of speed, the Prius is superior to the Auris.

 4. Skoda Fabia Greenline II - 89g/km

This is a VW Group car output that uses 1.2 liter TDI diesel engine. Capacity of five passengers, this car has low emissions, namely 89g/km.

5. Volkswagen Polo Bluemotion

This car is the best-selling efficient cars sold in the United Kingdom. Latest output Bluemotion can save up to 80.7 mpg fuel and produce emissions 91g/km.
