2010 Chevy Cobalt - attractive small car with a bit more size


But the Chevy Cobalt can not crack the top half of a great small car class, because it's small inside, the rear seats with enough space for adults. Hard seat and back is a common complaint. Besides the design looks like most other small cars.

1999-2002 Mercury Cougar

2001 Mercury Cougar Picture

Picture of 2001 Mercury CougarSignificantly different from the Thunderbird-related bombs from the past, the revised 1999 Mercury Cougar is a compact, front-wheel drive sports hatchback coupe with seating for four. His goal: to revive the image of Mercury. Despite its sharp design, 1999 Cougar was based on the Ford Contour / Mercury Mystique sedans. Cougar usually measured only one inch longer. Engines were the same as those used in the Contour / Mystique, but Mercury Cougars got a firmer suspension and tighter control. Basic 4-cylinder with manual transmission alone, while 4-speed automatic is available with 2.5-liter V6. Features include front side-airbags, antilock brakes and traction control (V6 only). V6 Sport Group included rear disc brakes (instead of drums) and 16-inch wheels instead of the usual 15 inches. Split folding rear seat is standard in the sport of four-passenger Mercury Cougar interior.


Mercury Cougar: to enliven Mercury's image

Quite Peppy engine with the base, one Mercury Cougar profits of some low-end muscle, they are equipped with V6, but the power is impressive. So is the acceleration, with almost 10 seconds, reaching 60 km / h on automatic bombs. Automatic shifts smoothly, but unpleasant fish between devices in hilly terrain and the lack of lock-out overdrive fourth gear. Neither engine matches with rival Japanese brand for refining high-revving up the fun. Regarding the economy, we average 19.9 mpg with a five-speed V6, automatic, and 20.7 Mercury Cougar handle well, moves well in the corners, but not through the winding road agility and balance, which provides our main brand.

2002 Mercury Cougar Picture

Picture of 2002 Mercury Cougar View Long wheelbase (for coupe) prevents the maneuverability, but the basic suspension helps provide a relatively comfortable ride. V6 Sport Group improves the ability of the road, but at the expense of Thump, nervous ride. Brake pedal feel was inconsistent, from soft touchy to try new models, but to stop the flow is sufficient. Road rumble and exhaust noise are intrusive. Front head and adequate legroom are somewhat cramped interiors. Seats provide good lateral support, but they are most comfortable. Mercury Cougar rear seat is tight for the immature, badly shaped pillows. Split folding rear seat offers generous cargo room, but the lift is high. Lack redline on tachometer, radio and low controls, Mar otherwise attractive dashboard. In addition, cabin full of hard, cheap plastic appearance.

With their "new-edge" look, Mercury Cougar earn points for originality and style in a modern sports coupe segment, but weaker in guest satisfaction and manage the practical virtues. Competitive threats Mitsubishi Eclipse, which is much better for 2000 and handles better. Dodge Avenger / Stratus coupe is wider, and Honda Prelude or Acura TL costs significantly more.

Citroen Eco-Luxury Sedan Concept Car Design by Ankit Prashar


A designer graduated of Coventry School of Art and Design, called Ankit Prashar, of India, "I design what might be the Citroen future in sedans, (of a very distant future)".
Ankit developed a model triplaza of 1 + 2 seats, electrically, wheel - engine and solar roof, with base in the current designs of the signature. Ankit says that this is an electrical vehicle of the generation wheel - engine with batteries of Ion - lithium that feed the engines of the wheels. A fuel battery works like a chest expander of autonomy that recharges the batteries when it is necessary, also, the solar panels in the roof they give energy for the lighting systems.
In general lines, Eco-Luxury Concept has characteristics and details, which peacefully might be in the future models of the French mark. But if we observe well it has some completions that are too much a futurists and few producibles. The most outstanding thing is the opening of his doors.
In the front there is appreciated the origin of Citroen (an excellent idea), where it brings together very well the broiler, with the optical ones and the logo. In the rest of the car, side street and rear part, it is too futurist and it is difficult to extract some conclusion. But anyhow, the idea is very interesting.

Bugatti Galibier 16C Concept Car comfort and elegance of a modern four-door saloon


Revealed at a private event to customers and what Bugatti refers to as "opinion-makers" this past weekend at the firm's home in Molsheim, the 16 C Galibier is a conceptual proposal for a four-door, four seat sedan that could very well go into production in the next couple of years.
At the historic site where Ettore Bugatti once laid the cornerstone of his company, Bugatti's current president, Dr. Ing. Franz-Josef Paefgen emphasised that the Bugatti Galibier 16C is one of several concept studies with which the company is considering for the future of the Bugatti marque.
Power comes from the works 8-litre 16-cylinder motor with two-stage supercharging. It can churn out between 588kW (800hp) and 735kW (1,000hp), all of which is channeled to all four wheels using the AWD system. Standard fuel is petrol but ethanol can be used as an alternative. To stop it running away from the driver is a set of powerful carbon ceramic brakes.
The Bugatti Galibier's design masters the challenge of uniting sportiness with the comfort and elegance of a modern four-door saloon. The basic architecture picks up on the torpedo-like character of the Type 35, which was already revived in the Bugatti Veyron, and reinterprets it. With the typical Bugatti radiator grille, big round LED headlights and the clamshell running the length of the vehicle which became synonymous with the brand identity under Jean Bugatti in the Type 57, this car transports the Bugatti genes into the modern world.
The interior reflects the elemental design of the exterior. The dash panel has been reduced to the essential; two centrally located main instruments keep even the rear passengers constantly informed of the actual speed and previous performance. Parmigiani, the Swiss maker of fine watches, created the removable Reverso Tourbillon clock for the Bugatti Galibier, which may be worn on the wrist thanks to a cleverly designed leather strap.
"Galibier" is not just the name of one of the most difficult alpine passes along the Tour de France but, in its time, was a version of the four door Type 57 unequalled in sportiness and elegance.
