Suzuki GEMMA

Suzuki holds a tandem scooter and Gemma's announcement test-ride event not in local and Hamamatsu but in Tokyo and Odaiba which is also the birthplace of a trend. The performance which does not betray such enthusiasm was shown.
However, handling is rather natural. At a pole low speed which has a peculiarity in which surely a handle must be held in a cornering compared with the sky wave of the company, and walks, a handle is feeling with a hula. But it is not worrisome probably. In it, rather, high-speed stability is good, that of suspension performance is high, and shows a pliant run.
Furthermore, the torque characteristic of an engine is smoother in a flat than in a sky wave, and it can manage town riding by smooth acceleration and deceleration.
It is user-friendly and storage of having straddled with one helmet is possible for a pocket being in the center of a front, and right and left, and going into storage space.
In the present condition that the custom-made scooter is in fashion, this has even the admiration which has taken the trend in advance. But even if it does not come out so much, it runs and it uses, it is a high level scooter.

Nissan GT-R

A multi-performance supercar is a catchphrase of new style GT-R. What on earth does it mean? While new style GT-R develops, in the Sendai Highland speedway of having rushed in thoroughly, I will verify thoroughly. [
Although it was GT-R which had finally disappeared R34 skyline, President Carlos Ghosn declared revival two years ago, and it became actual now. However, new GT-R is the appearance as a type of a car which the name of the skyline was removed and became independent completely. And it is not a thing based on for [ like GT-R to R34 ] Japanese markets, and sale in every country in the world is the requisite.
GT-R born again is stated as a "multi-performance supercar" in Nissan. The thing that it can make it possible to pull out even if it is not a driver of special skill, and from every day to a snowy road can be run further comfortably differs from the existing supercar, having the leading run performance in the world.
It is V6 in which performance is also a thing beyond the common sense of the old domestic sports model, and an engine generates 480ps. A 3.8l. twin turbo is carried. Dual clutch type 2 pedal MT is combined with it. Of course, drives are 4WD.
Although it ran the Sendai Highland race way of having performed many sufficient running practice on the occasion of development, and the public road of the circumference of it, in this trial ride, the run was what leaves a glaringly vivid impression.
Packaging had a backseat where the adult who is the tradition of GT-R and is also the feature can sit down, if it was a brief journey grade, it gave the suitcase of capacity which can respond enough, but it includes the platform and mechanism unlike a mass-production vehicle in it.
If body size considers that four more persons can ride as the hypertrophy tendency of the kind of a super sport in recent years, it will not be a vainly large degree. Although the pros and cons are likely to be divided into the style which can take tic [ GUNDAM ] as it is also rough, he can understand the prejudice to "ハコ" which belongs to skyline GT-R.
Attention is having unified a clutch, missions, and transfer (independent type suitcase axle 4WD), and having made it arrange to body back to the engine of a front mid ship layout, although a prejudice can see many things in a mechanism. Thereby, optimization of order weight distribution and tire load is enabled.
As for tire size, in a front, 255/40ZR20, and リア are run flats at 285/35ZR20. A brand changes in grades, and GT-R of a base is made in Dunlop, and serves as a product made from BS except it. In addition, in Nissan, wearing of those other than the tire only for GT-R is not accepted from safety.
If it sits on a dry バーズ sheet, the speedometer minced to 340km/h will jump into eyes. If even environment is allowed, it will also be a proof with the capability that it can go on a cruise by 300km/. Incidentally, it judged that this GT-R was in a circuit by GPS, and the function which can carry out automatic release of the speed limiter is also equipped.
There were only 584m straight lines of the Sendai Highland race way (4.063km per round) at the maximum, and since the last corner connected with the straight line was also tight, I thought that there was probably no necessity for speed limiter release etc. But, the speedometer regarded as チラッ on 1 corner breaking point had arrived at the place beyond a 180km/h region at least.
The acceleration G which is as intense as it as for power performance, and has not been experienced in a domestic sports car until now is made to maintain. It seemed to have the acceleration which is not inferior to the Porsche 911 turbo in physical feeling in which 車重 is lighter than GT-R. If compared especially with the AT specification, the height of the free nature of a gear will be overwhelming and the degree of the margin to driving will not be compared.
It was also desirable to have had the delicate nature of control of engine power and a response with one conjointly with the traction performance very high with such leading speed.
As for power, an engine is overwhelmed by power like the lump of torque with last thing. On the other hand, it also has the sharpness in a high rotation region. This engine Feer and the combination of dual clutch transmission are pleasant sensation supremely.
Although the shift naturally chose the manual mode and operation by Pasdeloup was performed in the circuit,The necessity of already usual MT -- the gear is enabling the down shift certainly also in a thing exact very quickly and an intense slowdown region where ABS operates on a dry road surface further -- is not felt. On the other hand, it is comfortable at a gear smooth in the auto mode in every day. It is highly complete although the motion which was awkward occasionally at the time of start might be shown.
By the way, because the bucket-shaped front sheet is made so that Europeans and Americans' physique may also be suited, it has given the margin at the whole to size. For this reason, although it is easy every day, in G at the time of the high revolution G which GT-R brings about in a circuit, and breaking, a hold becomes sweet. It was one of a few dissatisfaction that mind is dispatched by posture maintenance of the body by the driving of a circuit.
GT-R is supposed that it has the leading performance in the world also in the kind of the supercar of running a Nuerburgring old course on the level of 7 minutes and 30 seconds. The intense Sendai Highland race way of the input change from a road surface was also fully able to be asked about the bit. The outstanding grounding performance which changes overwhelming power to traction firmly will be the secret of GT-R.
It was impressed that the shake on a spring (body) is small, and it felt flat ライド as an actual thing for the first time by the Nissan car irrespective of the situation of a road surface. Also when running through small S character corner with might and main, in a spring top, it follows obediently and a motion is settled quickly. Moreover, the driver can advance into the corner in a control response without a feeling of delay, and the intense height of スタビリティ, having greatest sense of security.
Effectiveness of a brake and the height of control nature can also realize other differences by high order origin on the road surface on which especially the part has got wet. VDC (antiskid brake system) may feel it obstructive, when R mode (mode of a run) is also invading in the circuit. Such in the case, full release is also possible.

Mercedes Benz C class wagon C200 compressor avant-garde

New style C Klas Sedan which shows good sale. Although I hear that the height of the completeness was supported by many users, can it say that a wagon is also the same? The performance was checked focusing on C200 compressor avant-garde. [
Seemingly in fact as an in porter, although good sales are continued and home sales have been the Mercedes Benz C classes which have already broken through a total of 11,000 sets since the appearance in June, last year, it is dissatisfaction still more. Then, that expectation is applied is C class wagon newly added to lineup.
Because it says that about twenty percent of sale of C class was formed in the predecessor, naturally the reason for expectation is not only it but that the addition of the number can be expected. In fact, it is because the user layer is rejuvenated with his 30-40's and グッ to the number of the centers of C Klas Sedan being 40-50 and the change ratio from other brands moreover reaches also to 60 percent.
Of course, the degree of attention is high also for a general [ us ] user. For the young user layer which began to get interested in C class by the type-of-a-car deployment set focusing on the avant-garde of a sporty design, and the run which emphasized horse mackerel リティ (= quick nature),It is because some will greatly still thin surely if they are a station wagon if it is a sedan, hesitation, i.e., the image of being casually missing, of getting Mercedes who will remain.
A highlight is a style first. The new model has started the angle in consideration of practicality to the predecessor model having thought fashionability as important and having put the rear gate to sleep strongly.
However, the side view is not the aloof thing which gave priority only to practicality, and is a sharp and sporty atmosphere like a sedan. It is a point on a design to show the load room portion compactly because an arch-like roof falls gently-sloping toward back to the waist line which rose.
Too, it rises in front fender back and the character line in which the taillight carried out the kick rise by the way as well as a sedan is playing a role in the production of a feeling of a lively motion.
Although the angle of the rear gate is started to be sure, stylishness is never spoiled. Even the predecessor user charmed by appearance if it was this does not waver to a change.
450l. from which ラゲッジ capacity also usually increases by 20 of a predecessorl. by the time with the body size slightly enlarged with 30mm with 40mm and full at full length. Where a rear sheet is toppled, 1465l., the increase of 151 l., is secured very much. This figure far exceeds rivals, such as a BMW3 series touring and Audi A4 アバント.
Moreover, the point which it pulls for eyes that it is not only large, but the rear sheet became foldable only by pushing down with back rest near at hand from the conventional double folding type. If capacity is pursued, it is at an advantage in a double folding type, but this one is easier for treatment, and while holding the load etc. especially in one hand, it is positively found useful.
It is finished on the full-scale wagon which is not as stage properties for directing a life style, and is advertized also to the user that they will actually use carrying a full load of people or a load.
Although lineup applies to a sedan correspondingly fundamentally,V Only C300 which carries a type 6 cylinders 3l. unit is not prepared for a station wagon, but an engine serves as 2.5l. of 6-cylinder V models of C250, and double-feature of the serial 4 cylinders 1.8l. supercharger of C200 compressor. Especially, C200 compressor avant-garde is regarded as a popular model, and this is this trial ride vehicle.
Although 車重 is increasing about 60kg compared with a sedan, most power performances are equal. although the time of zero start etc. is also felt like [ so that weight may be felt for a mere instant after breaking in an accelerator until a car actually begins to move ] -- a difference -- to that extent . When having begun to run, practical torque was demonstrated by the favor of the supercharger which demonstrates the 過給 effect from a low-speed region, and, of course in one-person entrainment, it did not feel powerless by three-person entrainment, either.
engine Feer -- high-quality -- even when -- V type -- although the direction of 6 cylinders excels, if it becomes most to load people and a load and to use on the inside of a town or a general way, it will be like [ to choose as here positively rather ].
Generally, in a sedan and a station wagon, it rides from 車重 and the difference of body rigidity, and a difference arises in a taste. Although this C class wagon is not that exception, either, that difference is small noisily.
First, a degree of comfort. The station wagon is a little harder a little too. It is because the suspension of リア is hardened slightly in consideration of loading a heavy load in the second half of a body according to the increase of weight of a part.
Handling also gives the weight of リア. Moreover, the noise which invades from back during a run was also felt large a little. This can be said only to the wagon which does not have a partition behind a rear sheet unlike a sedan as what is not avoided as for a certain grade. However, only this one set rides and it is not a hard thing which is impressed heavy with it being noisy.
Each of all elements, such as a style, user-friendliness, and a run, is materialized at the high dimension. Not only those that are examining the wagon of this class but the man of a sedan aim is one set of the value ant of a glimpse.

Lexus IS F

IS F born from an ardent wish of the Yaguchi development person in charge [ car / which he can regard really as wanting ] 創りたい." How far does the thought get across to a rider? It was made to get the Saito reporter to test-ride instantly in Fuji International Speedway.
It seems that two years pass since starting in the country [ Lexus / which became the first premium brand with the domestic car ], and the cognition as a luxury brand of a Japanese vehicle is also progressing gradually. Moreover, the hybrid car which is also a strong point of Toyota was set as GS and LS, and differentiation with an import premium brand has also been attained.
However, there is much what sets the projected highly efficient model to an import premium brand, and is, and this is also bearing a role of an image leader. AMG of Mercedes Benz, M series of BMW, RS of Audi, etc. are the type.
Lexus IS F is the first super-high performance model in the Lexus brand that can also oppose such a premium sport. V 6 To IS which carries 2.5 and a 3.5l. engine, it is V8. A 5l. engine is carried and 8 速 AT is combined. Although sale in world main grounds is planned, a setup of the suspension etc. serves as world unification specification. In Japan, an order received far exceeds assumption and it is said that delivery of cars becomes after next year in the case of the order in early 2008.
In addition, it is only circuit 試走 in the Fuji International Speedway book course which rushed in also at the time of development, and the run of a general way cannot be experienced this time.
Although the foundations of the body were as common as IS250 and IS350, full was set to 4660mm with full length long 85mm with 1815mm of 20mm spread by change of the appearance design.
The difference on appearance is a front bumper of the design which thought the 空力 characteristic as important,It is establishing the air outlet for giving off the heat of an engine room outside in the rear bumper and the front fender back of storing the muffler of 4 出し, and the volume of a fender also increasing, increasing the upside swelling, in order that a bonnet's may also store V8 engine further, etc. A tire & wheel equips with 19 inches.
Although interior design does not change basic modeling of an instrument panel to IS, it makes the panel part used as an accent the silver keynote, or is taking out originality by adopting blue LED as meter. The sheet serves as a bucket type with which front and back made a feeling of seating, and getting-on-and-off nature balance in exclusive form. An outer skin is leather.
Moreover, since the backseat is also made into the form of right-and-left 2 seat, a riding capacity becomes four persons. If this is removed, the function or amenity as a sedan will not be different from IS. Although it cannot approve as to whether it is full of a high-class feeling, BMW M3 is not a degree which can be proud of the level of such a place.
V The 5l. engine of 8 is what carried out [ cylinder head ] exclusive development based on what is carried in Lexus LS600h. It is that it was not just thought up to some years ago that a 5l. engine was carried in the sedan of this body size.
Performance numerical values are horsepower output 423ps / 6600rpm, and maximum torque 51.5kgm / 5200rpm. If the engine of BMW M3 carries out from having obtained 420ps from V84 l., it will also be found that he is not so much Hy Cheung, but the margin of torque is overwhelming.
Foundations are based on 8 速 AT adopted when a minor change was carried out in autumn of 2007 and LS was set to LS460 from LS430 also for missions. Although a mechanism is the usual AT through a torque converter, the direct feeling and the response in variable speed which are not inferior to two pedal MT latest dual clutch type, such as extending the gear and rotation region which carry out a lock-up, or forming clutch control into a super-high response, are realized.
車重 is 1690kg and increases by 90kg to IS350. In order load balance, it cannot be denied that the front side became a heavier tendency too.
Rain and the 2nd day are fine and the trial ride day has experienced the both sides of a wet road surface and a dry road surface at the 1st day.
First, although it is power performance, it also has overwhelming powerfulness with comfortable kana feeling with a feeling of power increasing so obediently that the overflowing torque like the natural aspiration engine of large displacement volume becomes being obtained without rapid increase and decrease, and high rotation.
In old AT, a response in variable speed to the extent that it has not experienced also occurs, and even if it raises the gear one after another, acceleration does not become blunt. However, if there are also 8 速, it is serious to confirm into which gear it really goes. It feels so especially in the case of a down shift.
Also after exceeding 200km/h (a speed limiter is canceled specially), acceleration does not lose vigor. The ability of top speed calls it 300km/h! by survey. Even in Fuji International Speedway, it is said at a straight end that it amounts to 255km/h in the case of a dry road surface. However, since the trial ride day was humid, it was less than it.
A feeling of acceleration was smooth and received the impression of being powerful rather than having called it ド force. If the engine sound became clear comparatively as large displacement volume V8, it will be echoed as a thing. However, the air intake sound could regard the interior of a room as like [ a great portion of ], and it was accompanied also by the artificial impression.
For the moment, the directivity of IS F is in intelligible sport nature. As far as it gets to know in a circuit, the composure at the time of going straight which had the insufficient feeling by the conventional IS was added, and the sense of stability in the straight was increasing. It seems that refinement of the 空力 performance by fine improvement is also effective.
although the handling cannot wipe just a feeling of front heaviness -- a turning round -- control of admiration and a roll is natural and comfortable. If the delay of an initial response becomes a little smaller, a high-quality feeling is also likely to increase. Although the feeling a feeling of grounding is somewhat uneasy on a wet road surface remained, since control nature is high, even if it turns OFF VDIM (vehicles integrated regulating system), it is not so dreadful.
However, the insufficient tendency of the traction due to aggravation of order weight distribution was wet, and remarkable. Since it does not have LSD, the false LSD effect has been given by the brake control by VDIM, but LSD is not matched in a circuit. Incidentally, the time of making VDIM into sport mode, running VDIM, being just before the operation intervention, and running is the quickest in time. Since it is spin control and rapid intervention of VSC will be made if a rear wheel flows out, it is important to discern the 端境. In addition, if there is an opportunity, I will want to send to you separately about a degree of comfort, fuel consumption, etc. in a trial ride in a public road.

Subaru Legacy

The level opposite turbo-diesel engine with which the essence of the technology of Subaru was brought together in the 08-year Geneva show performed from March 6 is announced. Mr. Hideo Matsuda has test-ridden the legacy of the new engine loading which aimed at coexistence with environment and the pleasure which runs in Spain. It is a thing of a sale schedule [ in Europe ] after show. Instantly, it was made to have the precious experience reported.
It being announced in the Geneva show in March, and being sold as it is in Europe has determined the legacy which carries the level opposite diesel engine (2l. turbo) used as the first in the world. And it is told to the next of legacy that it is carried also in Forester.
Why does Subaru challenge a diesel now? The reason is in dieselizing of the Europe car market. At around 2.0l. segments, such as the present and legacy, 70 percent is a diesel engine loading vehicle for some countries. It is expected that it becomes 50 percent or more even in Germany. That is, importance is attached to it being a diesel first on a sales strategy. It will not become a match if it is not a diesel.
Then, although it is said three years ago in Subaru that development of the diesel engine was begun, it can be said that the technical capabilities of Subaru finished so far in the short period of only that are in a considerable level. What kind of mechanism does it have with the boxer diesel engine?
I will hear that horizontally opposed engine has turned [ be / for the members of development of Subaru / it / a fair wind ] to the diesel remarkably. That is, the history for becoming a diesel engine is good from the first.
As to what kind of thing it is, in order that a piston on either side may carry out symmetrical movement, the balancer of horizontally opposed engine for there being the characteristic of negating a mutual explosion vibration and negating an indispensable vibration for an in-series type or V type diesel is unnecessary. At least this can reduce remarkable friction (frictional resistance).
It is carrying out happy [ of the thing with a crankshaft comparatively shorter than other engine types and high rigidity ]. The body which can catch just the intense explosion torque generated from a high compression ratio. In the case of a diesel engine, if this crank rigidity is important and this is low, by intense explosion torque, a twist will occur on a crank and it will cause condition, such as vibration.
Subaru with the firm belief which can cope with a rigid problem adopted the cylinder block made from an aluminum alloy, and succeeded also in a weight saving and miniaturization.
The compression ratio of this engine is 16.3 to 1. It could be called a number very average as a diesel engine (usually 15 to around 17). The highest prime & maximum torque pressed out from there is set to 150ps / 3600rpm & 350Nm / 1800rpm. One should notice a horsepower output and maximum torque generated from low rotation.
This is peculiar to a diesel car and the engine limiter of this car actually operates at 4800rpm.
The number of rotations of 4800rpm feels thing insufficient with some frustrations for the driver who got used to the gasoline engine and was familiar with it. However, condition like surging that it takes for approaching an end common to a diesel engine also in that highest rotation region in the case of this boxer diesel, and a rotation rise becomes astringent is not felt almost. Therefore, an engine limiter is touched at the moment of thinking ハッ, and many cases of a rise shift will be experienced confusedly.
The missions only of 5 速 MT for exclusive use are. A gearshift is made shorter 10mm than a gasoline vehicle, and it has become a clever feeling. The time lag of an upshift can be made smaller than before, and it can use up, without making thick torque useless.
If this timing that will say also in a certain meaning and the new shift technique of a diesel, or is different again as for a gasoline engine is held, it can run sportily quite pleasantly.
The suspension is tuned up in the direction where a spring and a damper are somewhat harder. Therefore, handling is very much sporty. power steering is used also for Forester's NA system -- it is electromotive. Although it is said that it is difficult for electric power steering to make a natural feeling, in the legacy of diesel engine loading, it is almost comfortable.
It is a thing when it asked the members of development, that Forester and this legacy boxer diesel were performing initial development in Europe. It is strangely convinced in Forester's feeling of operation having been excellent indeed, just because it was electric power steering of the Europe 仕込.
When asking environment nature, the opportunity to display CO2 emissions has increased. An engine good for environment with terrible it is a standard as it is generally 140g or less per kilometer. The boxer diesel has attained the value as wonderful as 148g/km.
A system called a common-rail was adopted as the latest diesel engine, and this improved the performance of the diesel engine at a stretch. A common-rail refers to piping just before supplying fuel to in ジェクター. Fuel is accumulated by high pressure here and fuel is directly injected in a cylinder by fine control from in ジェクター. And it is clean and little combustion of futility is obtained.
Although a boxer diesel is also this common-rail method, of course, not an expensive ピエゾ type but the newest cheaper ソレノイド type is adopted as injection-of-fuel equipment. When it estimates at sale in Japan where next year and the year after next are spoken about, in a natural thing, the further cost reduction is an important matter of future diesel development.
Anyway, sale in Japan is long in coming. Because it is full and is said no less than 1100km anyway that it will run.
