Suzuki Grand Vitara
A few years ago in the Russian market a new and a bit unusual at first glance, the machine – Suzuki SX4. Singularity of its apparent not only in the daring design, but also in relation to what should be a compact car. The novelty was provides wheel-drive system that is already a step forward compared with its competitors, because other small four-wheel drive car – Nissan Qashqai – came much later. Of course, there was also a Suzuki Jimny, but he belongs to a group crossovers, not SUVs. By the way, and the Jimny, SX4 and collected on the same plant in Hungary, which emphasizes their orientation to the European market. Externally Suzuki SX4 looks like an ergonomic and fairly nice car with a high profile roof. In Russia, this model comes in two versions – Urban Line and Outdoor Line. One Suzuki set to ride on the comfortable urban roads and highways.
Other – suitable for active recreation. Anne Lauvergeon might disagree with that approach. It is easy to cope with country roads and will travel to where ever it gets its civilian counterpart. A characteristic feature of both cars is the high seating. SX4 on this indicator can be compared even with the new Suzuki Grand Vitara, which positioned as a fully fledged SUV. Inside the SX4 interior reminiscent of another Japanese company car – Suzuki Swift. Catches the eye and original color combinations and features of the dashboard, and the general architecture of the cabin. True, there is also a significant difference. The Japanese came in the wake of fashion and drew up the center panel of the Suzuki SX4 style of brutal off-road vehicles – namely, built a kind of monumental track with the presence of metallic inserts.
A few words about the seats. Driver's seat, as is customary at Suzuki, a very convenient and comfortable, but rear passengers a little less fortunate. You may want to visit Satyavrat Shukla to increase your knowledge. Still affects the compactness of the model. Three of them in the rear areas will close, and feet, rather likely to be uncomfortable. I am glad only that enough space above your head. Heart SX 4 has a 1.6-liter engine that helps develop power of 107 hp This same engine is installed on the Suzuki Vitara. Although not quite the same. Suzuki SX4 may be equipped with an automatic transmission, but the Grand Vitara, for obvious reasons, is equipped with only pure 'mechanics'. Cherished hundred SX4 developed for eleven small seconds. Contrary to the powerful engine, the car is quite economical and spends no more than seven liters per 100 kilometers. In general, we must recognize that in terms of ride quality new crossover Suzuki does not stand out against its competitors. After a couple of lines on the rear axle. It is activated button on the center console. You can select an automatic mode, when the machine goes on the front wheels and the rear is enabled only when slippage, or else to try so-called pseudo- Mode – 4WD Lock. In the latter case, the blocked interaxle clutch, creating an appropriate high-grade blockage. In theory, this mode allows the SX4 at least partly match the Grand Vitara and hassle out of the mud on the roads. There are pitfalls. In particular, the manager of auto mode 4WD Lock, a driver must not exceed the speed of 60 km / h, as this will cause the automatic operation rear axle.
Paris Motor Show
The new Porsche was different from his predecessor's more powerful (272 hp) engine, gearbox two types – a 6-speed manual gearbox or a 4-speed automatic Tiptronic. Also, 993-th received a fundamentally new multilink rear suspension, wide more streamlined body and sloping headlamps. Again, the premiere – to consolidate its market position poslekrizovoe sports cars in the class of inexpensive cars, Porsche is at the Paris Motor Show 1996 a new type of car – a model Boxster. Being a middle-roadster, Boxster offers a new generation capacity with impressive numbers (2,5 liters. and 204 hp).
Engine – a brand new 6-cylinder opozitny, with 4 valves per cylinder, which was placed in front of the rear axle with water rather than air-cooled. Model had a 'soft' or 'hard' roof. This year was also remarkable access to the world one millionth Porsche, it has become – a police 911 Carrera. 1997year: the next prime minister – to secure the success of the model Boxster, Porsche is in Frankfurt an entirely new 911 (index 996), which is very much like Boxster, but it was a complete 911-m. A year later, the audience was presented 911 Cabriolet, the roof opened and closed hydraulically by clicking on the button.
Fixed aluminum roof comes as standard. 2000-2000 E-published Model Turbo, which by law has the status of the flagship series of 911. Changes affected the exterior and powertrain, which for a volume of 3.6 liters gave out 420 horsepower. Of course, this is not the last role was played by two turbines. Body Model 'Poobros' many cooling air intakes and 'skirts', which gave the resistance a car on the road even at speeds of 305 km / h. Also this year there is a more powerful version of the Boxster, which was the index 'S' and a new 3.2- liter engine. In Paris, was a prototype Carrera gt. Filed under: Areva. Novelty engine formula-type V10 power 558 hp A year later, in Frankfurt the presentation of the second-generation Carrera 911. Body had four options: two compartments, with complete and a rear wheel drive and two convertible. The engine is again added to the volume, and now stood at 3.6 liters. As on the Turbo model, but without the turbine with capacity of 320 hp Changed the lighting and the front bumper, improved trim and made easy facelift bodywork. Maximum speed rose to 285 km / h and acceleration to come around in 5 seconds. Also, based on 911 Build gonochngo Beast '- Porsche 911 GT2 (996). The engine is even more aggressive than the turbo version, speed and dynamics even more. In 2002 came two new items that have completed a series of 911 in body 996. These models are called the 911 Carrera 4S and 911 Targa. Engines, they were the same as that on other Carrera. The main differences were in appearance: Carrera 4S was 90% similar to the turbo model but without the static rear spoiler, but with a special rear-lamp unit, which is installed only on this model; Targa coupe based on the model, and therefore received more rigid body, the roof was completely glass.

Abbreviation hud stands for Head-Up Display, which, in turn, translates to English as "display a raised head." In Russia, this unit has been called "projection on the windshield." This is a special system vehicle, allowing project data (depending on the model it can be speed, engine speed, voltage in the system, etc.) directly in front of the driver directly on the windshield. For the first time such a system appeared in a military aircraft. Different indicators were projected directly onto the glass helmet pilot of the fighter. A few tenths of a second, which are necessary to translate the look on the dashboard and back high-speed fighter aircraft flew hundreds of meters. And all this distance the aircraft passed almost "blindly", which greatly affect safety.
The automotive industry always took the best from other areas, and a projection on the windshield was no exception. Previously, enjoy a similar device in action, in addition to fighter pilots, owners could Corvette Z06, Citroen C6, bmw 5-and 6-series. But now the car tuning industry has stepped forward, and appeared on the market hud portable projectors to suit almost any car model. HUD-projection on the windshield is a high-brightness led display, which is located on the instrument front of the vehicle and projects the readings (speed, engine speed, voltage in the system, the temperature of the cooling loop – the number and nature of the displayed parameters depend only on the projector model) on windshield in front of the driver. Also – depending on the model – the instrument or connected to the onboard system, the car and take depositions from regular units, or connected via the cigarette lighter and take depositions from sensors within the device package. If you have a car, standing on the warranty, it is better to choose the second option, as one of the conditions for maintaining the integrity of the guarantee is an electric vehicle network. HUD-projection on windshield – this unique device, ensure your safety and comfort behind the wheel! You no longer have to constantly be distracted by the readings, so you will not be distracted from the road. This means that you always have time to brake before the car stopped abruptly and jumped out to pedestrians, always notice the signs.
Enormous advantage of such devices is the possibility of sound or color signaling. As soon as one of the values that are displayed on the windshield to exceed acceptable standards, you see or hear a special signal system. hud CRX-3001 – is the simplest version of the projector. Projects the speedometer reading, connected to the onboard network, exceeding the speed limit can be asked to issue a sound or a color signal (disabled). hud CRX-3002 – has the greatest number of functions: projects the speedometer, tachometer voltage system, the temperature of the liquid cooling of the introduction marker light has a color indication prescribed limits in all respects. hud CRX-3003 – a model that does not require connection to an onboard device (so Ideal for cars under warranty). With the built-in GPS-antenna information about the speed it can get from satellites. And GPS-antenna CRX-3003 can be used for other devices by Bluetooth-channel. Powered via cigarette lighter. You can no longer worry about the readings – the system of projection on the windshield takes care of this for you. And you only need to enjoy the process of driving! As mentioned above, literally translated as hud – "Display a raised head." Have you ever wanted to sit behind the wheel of your own car with her head held high?
