The S90 will also come wîth a clean and powerful T8 Twin
Engine plug-in hybrid powertrain and one of the most luxuriously appointed
interiors and connected infotainment systems in the large sedan segmènt.
'Our idea was to bring something entirely new to this rather
conservative §egmènt and deliver a visual expression that exudes leadership and
confidence on the exterior. On the inside we have taken the S90 to the next
level, delivering a high-end luxury experience that promises comfort and control,'
said Thomas Ingenlath, Senior Vice President Design at Volvo Car Group.
Driving Performance is the AMG brand
promise and the Mercedes-AMG SLC43 lives up to it in impressive style. The new
model combines a 362 hp, 384 lb-ft, 3.0-liter V6 biturbo engine with a modified
version of the AMG sport suspension familiar from the Mercedes-AMG SLK 55, and
the combination is reflected in the sporty performance figures, wîth the SLC43
accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 4.6 seconds.

In the Ú.S. market, the 2017 Cadillac XT5 will be powered by
the new 3.6-liter V6 engine which debuted earlier this year on the brand's ATS
and CTS sport sedans and is featured on the CT6. This engine has been
completely redesigned and features Active Fuel Management cylinder deactivation
technology, which allows the engine to seamlessly and automatically switch to a
fuel-saving 4-cylinder mode under low or moderate loads.
With an estimated peak output of 310-horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque, the
new V6 uses variable valve timing for strong response and smooth power
delivery. Cadillac's new Stop/Start technology automatically stop and start the
engine when the vehicle is at rest in traffic stops, saving fuel and reducing
emissions, while enhancing the quietness expected of a luxury vehicle. A new 8-speed automatic transmission is standard for the XT5, which also debuts
Electronic Precision Shift – the first electronically controlled
transmission shifter for a Cadillac. Electronic Precision Shift reduces noise and
vibration, and allows further use of the cabin space with a storage space
beneath the center console.
An optional new advanced 'twin clutch' all-wheel drive system
continuously and automatically delivers excellent traction across a variety of
conditions. While engineered specifically for strong performance in wet, snowy
or icy conditions, it also provides enhanced stability in dry weather.
All of the engines available on the new GLS provide better
performance across the model line. The powerful GLS550 4MATIC with V8 bi-turbo
engine featuring direct injection now generates 449 hp, some 20 hp more than
the preceding model, and at a maximum torque of 516 lb-ft combines outstanding
performance with the high level of motoring comfort of these engines. The
3.0-liter V6 bi-turbo engine, also featuring direct injection, is used in the
GLS450 4MATIC. This engine produces 362 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque from 1,800
rpm, and like all GLS models has an ECO start/stop function.
As the effortlessly superior top-of-the-range model in the
series, the Mercedes-AMG GLS63 now has 577 horsepower, over 27 horsepower more
than its predecessor. The peak torque of 561 lb-ft is now available from just
1,750 rpm.
Alongside the gas engine offerings, in the GLS350d 4MATIC
offers a proven V6 diesel engine rated at 255 hp and with ample torque of 455
lb-ft.
At the launch of the new GLS generation, all versions will
feature the nine-speed 9G-TRONIC automatic transmission as standard (except the
Mercedes-AMG GLS63), optionally in combination with low-range gearbox and
center differential lock.
As part of the auto show 2015 Tokyo Motor Show was shown a
lot of amazing new products. However, the most striking is the machine invented
by engineers Yamaha. Yamaha has decided to all hit, unveiled its new development
– a humanoid robot motorcycle racer Motobot. This electro mechanical
humanoid creature is in able to control the bike on the track. It can easily
manipulate the controls like knobs accelerator, brake lever and shift.
Now robot is piloting the special bike with extra wheels (on
children’s bicycles – for insurance). The maximum speed of the prototype – a
little more than 100 km / h. However, this time limit. When work on the project
is completed, Motobot easily cope with any sports model. To overcome the bar at
200 km / h will not be a problem. The creators are so confident in the device,
even recorded a funny video. In the commercials, they announced plans to beat
the racer Valentino Rossi, 9 times world champion. Joke, of course. But who
knows – maybe in a few years we will see a match.
