Toyota Prius
Toyota Prius
Toyota Prius is a mainstay in the production of hybrid cars. The car was relying on modern technology that is environmentally friendly and fuel efficient.
Power for the 2010 Prius Plug-in Hybrid Concept comes from the Hybrid Synergy Drive used in the new Prius, but with the nickel-metal hydride battery pack replaced by a new, lithium-ion battery. The battery in the Prius Plug-in can be fully recharged in one-and-a-half hours from a 230v power supply. On a full charge, the Prius Plug-in Hybrid Concept can cover approximately 12.5 miles in EV mode. After the battery is depleted, the Prius Plug-in Hybrid Concept operates as a regular full hybrid.
The electric-motor-only take-off from rest also feels instant and the Prius continues to drive in almost eerie silence. There is a decent amount of torque and the equivalent of 80bhp (60kW), coming from the electric motor is more than sufficient for city traffic. But this depletes the battery quite fast. On the Prius you can select EV (Electric Vehicle) mode, Eco mode or Power mode manually, and the software will help you drive in that desired style. But it’s best to let the car do the math and Eco mode is the sensible way to go.
The Prius first went on sale in Japan in 1997, making it the first mass-produced hybrid vehicle. It was subsequently introduced worldwide in 2001.
Blame the march of modern car design or the watering down of the Prius’s "must-stand-out" philosophy, whatever. But look at it from the front and you can tell it’s going to be slippery through the air. It’s the way the windscreen just drops away flat from the nose, the manner in which the sides of the car have been extended back and then sharply turned so as to only drop the airflow after the tail-lights. Predictably the coefficient of drag is 0.25, one of the best around.
Mazda Taiki Concept | Japan meets Batman
Taiki is so beautiful of a concept car it is almost worth not driving at all. Like a work of modern art, one should admire, pace around slowly, debate what the designers were feeling as they created. Of course, that would be no fun. You are forced by sheer attraction to touch, sit and accelerate the Taiki to its limits. One can only hope Mazda keeps Taiki’s grace and efficiency in the final model.
These machines were built using the same ideas behind hydrogen rotary engines, except RENESIS is gasoline based as well as fuel efficient. Gas is injected at high pressure during intake, causing fuel to evaporate quickly. The fast air-fuel mixture stabilizes temperature in the chamber, raising the engine’s efficiency. It also gives any car wrapped around the 16X an increase in torque without the waste of emissions.

2010 Lexus lfa Nice View
Lexus announces today the official launch of the LFA, a two-seat supercar scheduled to go into production at the end of 2010 as the pinnacle of the Lexus 'F' premium sports car series. Pre-sales start today.
Ultra-responsive and extremely stable even when taken to the edge, the LFA creates a sense of reassurance that opens up a new world of driving emotion, exhilarating the senses to move the driver in more ways than one.
The LFA combines high output, superb chassis design and meticulous aerodynamics to achieve instantaneous total-vehicle response characterized by high-rev, seamless acceleration echoed by a self-defining resonance from its 4.8-liter V10.
Only 500 units of the LFA are to be produced and sold worldwide.
A prototype of the LFA is now on display at the 41st Tokyo Motor Show, which is open to the general public from October 24 to November 4 at Makuhari Messe in Makuhari, Chiba Prefecture.
