All New Daihatsu Xenia 2012 Review


This All New Daihatsu Xenia 1.3 R 5-speed manual transmission. Is the highest variant that features a complete line-up of the All New Xenia. The model is also offered with a high 4-speed automatic transmission.

Machine used was the same: 4 cylinder 16 valve VVT-i 1298 cc K3-VE-coded. Output power and torque peak is still the same, namely 92 dk at 6,000 rpm and 122 Nm at 4,400 rpm.

So the engine response was not different from its predecessor. It's just the engine noise entering the cabin was reduced at the All New Xenia. It seems that noise control, dash silencer, and roof mounted silencer works well.

stamping on the clutch feels lighter than previous models. Would slightly reduce the burden of the left foot while wading the jammed streets. Shift the gear lever has not changed.

Substantial development in this section is precisely the application of Electronic Power Steering (EPS). EPS technology is no longer wearing pumps and hydraulic oil. But the use of electric motors attached to the steering gear or steering column to adjust the rotation torque of the steering wheel.

Application of EPS makes the latest round of Xenia steering feels lighter when driven than its predecessor. This condition is very fun while doing maneuvers in the workshop space is limited.

Unfortunately the secret workshop floor is very smooth and clean, so we can not feel the change in the suspension of the All New Xenia. Daihatsu gave the front stabilizer of this type, lower spring rate, and fine tuning the suspension geometry to provide better damping and stability.

Cabin FRESH AND FLEXIBLE

Cabin feel different, feel more spacious and fresh. This is the 'work' some elements, like the color combination of dark gray and gray, a little more extensive side glass, and upholstery fabric berkelir beige.

Same instrument configuration, only the background color in the figure be made into red. In the right corner of the screen there is a digital information that conveys data tripmeter, fuel volume, temperature, and clock.

R equipped with a special type of double-DIN head unit with 7-inch screen. From appearances, this signal processing can play MP3-formatted files, CDs, DVDs and can also be used to capture television broadcasts.

Daihatsu also developed a second-row passenger seat and a third. The second row seat now sliding manifold are operated only by pulling one lever only. Each seat in the second row can be moved back and forth as far as 60 mm.

For third-row seat now separate seat model with a ratio of 50:50. Each of these can be folded simply by pulling a lever. Seat has also been provided with a head rest and a pair of safety belt.

the distance between the back of the rear seat with trunk door now expanding 40 mm. This addition, according to Daihatsu claims, expanding the volume of luggage. Now the new Xenia luggage capable of carrying 4 pieces of gallons of mineral water before only 3 pieces.

New Toyota GT86 FT86 Review

 TOYOTA GT 86 PRODUCT FT-86

After making the public wonder about the production version of the FT-86, Toyota finally released the official pictures are two-door car. This is the next step after the Japanese manufacturer released a video teaser sports car has been waiting for this. And now this coupe car has a new name, the GT 86.

Toyota GT 86 exterior design is inspired many of the FT-86. Many of the exterior elements are reminiscent of the concept car. Just look at the main lights are similar to the main light on the concept car FT-86 II. The difference, GT 86 has a rounded shape, while the FT-86 II has a unique taper design concept car. While LED Daytime Running Lights now come together with the main light. However, the form of air dam look the same as the FT-86 which appear at the Tokyo Motor Show 2009 ago.

FT-86 is not the only source of inspiration for designers in making the GT 86 Toyota this. But they also made the legendary sports cars of Toyota as a reference in designing the GT 86. This can be seen from the form of a rounded rear lights, reminiscent of the Toyota 2000GT was released in the decade of the 1960s.

As for the cabin, the Toyota is trying to combine the sporty elements with elements of modern and sophisticated. Just look at the steering wheel bars and pedal three stainless-steel covered with a sporty look chic combined with an LCD screen located in the middle of the cockpit as well as operation buttons within easy reach of the driver. The interior also looks minimalist with black domination by berkelir red stitching on the seat, steering wheel, handbrake lever, and the transmission lever.

As a sports car, of course GT 86 must capitalize machine that can satisfy the audience of speed. Therefore, Toyota engineers immersed inline 4-cylinder boxer engine with a capacity of 2,000 cc power capable of spitting out 197 hp at 7,000 rpm and torque of 205 Nm at 6600 rpm.

New Nissan X-Trail 2.0 CVT XTRONIC



Just look at the face of the Nissan X-Trail recently revised this face. "Almost" does not change from its predecessor.

Even so, it turns out grille has been changed. Although you have to think hard where the location changes. Similarly, the light clusters which appear more luxurious. For the type of CVT 2.0 is still added bonus Xenon lamp. Also changed the front bumper with a black diffuser and air outlet grille on it.

In addition, 17 alloy rims with new design replaces the old 16-inch model. The design is futuristic and gives the impression of 3D while spinning. At the rear, the design of the lights on the pillars above slightly changed the design, looks more sturdy and prominent, with a row of LEDs beautiful.

Cabin memorable, elegant impression burst with color black domination. Even some of the dash and door panels that had been generalized to black silver. Others on the instrument panel design is more attractive and informative, as well as air-conditioned glovebox and a USB connection.

Okay, then what about the experience berkendaranya? Because only a facelift, no touch on the drivetrain and suspension. Slam soft suspension that became the trademark X-Trail still feels comfortable on the road. Fun, nimble control we can still feel the same.

Application of the transmission belt of steel making machine feels slow response. Moreover, if we drive with eco-style. It took moments before the car can move faster. Apesnya if you are just moving at a red light. We guarantee a car horn from behind will bark.

But that does not mean he is without power. Treat the car more aggressive, then the logic control will change the response of the engine and transmission. Engine performance was more contained, the transmission to a higher round, and with the migratory patterns more readily.

Evidently, the acceleration figures are inscribed counted satisfactory. He was able to complete the acceleration 0-100 km / h in 11.54 seconds. Faster than the Honda CR-V 2.0 5-speed automatic is 12.39 seconds. Even 0.41 seconds faster than the Chevrolet Captiva 2.0 Diesel has 320 Nm of torque.
This is evidence of Nissan's expertise in gathering machine. CVTC technology with a compact balancer shafts in the engine 1997 cc 4-cylinder blends nicely with a smart steel belt transmission which has a 6-speed manual mode.

It should be noted, the power generated only 138 dk, losing much of the CR-V that reached 150 horsepower. Although the X-Trail superior torque with 198 Nm vs. 190 Nm. Another positive outcome. Highway fuel consumption of the X-Trail reaches 14.7 km / liter, while for the city in the range of 8.5 km / liter.

It is rather obvious why Nissan did not think too much about the engine and suspension in this facelift model. Driving experience is still delicious served his predecessor. While the proposed revisions sweetener display to remain competitive.
