Koenigsegg AGERA R in india by 2012..

By -


Koenigsegg Agera R is a sports car showcased internationally for the first time at Geneva Motor show of 2011. With Bugatti Veyron already available to the Indian customers, this car is also expected to make an entry into Indian markets in a very near future. Koenigsegg Agera R will be the world's first super sports car coming with engine that runs on an environment friendly E85 bio fuel. 
The Swedish car is successor of Agera which is also a similar sports car running on conventional fuels. Since bio-fuels have a lesser energy content, the car makers evolved a technology with increased fuel flow resulting in a perpetual run of engine, producing same levels as the petrol engines. This Swedish car derives its exceptional performance from revolutionary technologies specially adapted for the vehicle. 
These include a triplex rear suspension, aerodynamic designing with drag coefficient between 0.33 & 0.37 and pre-impregnated carbon fibre/ kevlar body. The F-1 style traction control system with 5 different handling modes and a dynamic rear wing provide stability to the car at very high speeds. These wings ensure that enough down force is generated so that its aerodynamically designed body does not leave the ground.    

Engine & Specifications of Koenigsegg Agera R 
Koenigsegg Agera R will come with a Euro-V compliant 5.0 litre, V8 turbo super-charged engine that churns out exceptional 1115 hp at 6900 rpm. A maximum torque of 1200 Nm could be achieved at 4100 rpm from this engine. Agera R has a drag coefficient of 0.33 to 0.37 with adaptable rear wings. These dynamic air wings instead of relying on heavy hydraulics use air drag for their operation. These wings generate a down force of 300 kg at 250 kmph. An advanced 7-speed dual clutch, 1 input shaft transmission with paddle-shift has been developed for the car. 

Performance of Koenigsegg Agera R 
Koenigsegg Agera R can easily reach 100 kmph speed from standstill in just 2.9 seconds. Though it has not been confirmed officially, independent testing agencies have claimed that it is currently the fastest under production supercar on road, beating the performance of Bugatti Veyron. The ventilated ceramic disc brakes can stop this vehicle within 30.5 metres of their initiation. 
The Euro V and Lev 2 compliant all aluminium engine has weight-to-power ratio of 1.19 kg/ hp (dry weight). The fuel economy figures are quite okay considering it is a sports car. It travels 5.6 km for every litre of fuel in cities, while on highways it can travel 8 km with same amount of fuel.

Interior, Exterior & Safety of Koenigsegg Agera R 
Koenigsegg Agera R has been designed for maximum speed and includes features that serve a definite function rather than being a mere design feature. Hence, one will not find the glittering chrome fittings and idle lines at the exteriors. The two-seater coupe comes with a removable hardtop which can be stacked under the front hood lid. Its body is fabricated from pre-impregnated carbon fibre/kevlar and includes lightweight sandwich reinforcements. 
The interiors include a SatNav system, Mp3 Player, silver key, leather upholstery including carpets and a roof storage bag. For security of the occupants 4 point seatbelts have been provided. The ventilated ceramic disc brakes ensure effective deceleration without loss of vehicle stability. Rear spoiler and F1 style traction control system also ensure that the vehicle remains grounded. 
Price RangeRs. 12 crores to Rs. 13 crores

All new Ambassador makeover by Hindustan Motors in 2012 .

By -

Sixty years back, the word ‘car’ in India literally meant the Ambassador for most Indians. A lot has changed since then, with horde of automobile manufacturers active in the Indian market, sales figures for Hindustan Motors have hit an all time low 5,510 units in the first 10 months of the current fiscal year. Over the years, it has been the Indian political class that has been keeping Hindustan Motors rolling. The latest blow to Hindustan motors came from the Govt. of India itself, which replaced the Ambassador with cars like the  Maruti SX4  and the  Tata Indigo CS considering safety and performance issues. The next-gen Ambassador will feature structural, aerodynamic and aesthetical chages. Changes on board the 2012 Ambassador include new engine calibrations, an anti-lock brake system and aluminium alloy wheels. For comfort, there will be new leather seats coupled with wood grain interiors. For the first time, there will also be an integrated music system and redesigned instrument c

Force One to get 4x4 in mid-2012

Force Motors, which launched its first SUV, Force One, last August will launch a new 4x4 version and a variant equipped with ABS by mid-2012. The new 4X4 was displayed at the Auto Expo last month. At the launch, the company had indicated its intentions to offer more features in the SUV at a later stage. These features have made it to the SUV, but the company has been tight-lipped about launch date  and price tag. The 4x4 variant will continue to be powered by the FM-Tech 2.2-litre common-rail turbo-diesel motor that develops 139bhp and 32.6kgm of torque. It will be offered with a five-speed manual gearbox as is the case with the 4x2 version. There will be no visual changes to  differentiate the 4x4 from its 4x2 sibling, except for  the badge. We expect the ABS-equipped 4x4 version to  cost at least Rs 1 lakh more than the 4x2 variant, which costs Rs 10.65 lakh (ex-showroom,  Delhi).

Maruti 800 replacement coming soon.

Authentic Cars  broke the news on the upcoming Maruti 800 way back in July last year   and now we bring you more info on the car that will finally replace the venerable Maruti 800.  This new car, to be called the Alto 800 (codename: YE3), is based on the Alto, but with significant modifications done to make it cheaper. Not to be confused with the Alto sold in Japan, the new Alto 800 is based on the current generation Alto (YG4) but with a new body and interior. As seen in the pictures, the design is rather basic but there is more than a passing resemblance to the Japanese Alto, especially from the front. The nose gets high-mounted headlights, a slim, slot-like grille and there is a huge secondary air-inlet opening above and below the bumper. The styling is in line with the current-generation Suzukis, and details like the slanting window-line point to an aggressive tip-forward stance. Also, there is a prominent character-line that runs on the sides, right from the headlamps all the
