(Mitsubishi Outlander)First generation (CU/ZE/ZF; 2001) The Airtrek was first introduced to the Japanese market on 20 June 2001, priced from ?1.7?2.3 million. It offered a choice of either a 126 PS (93 kW) 4G63 2.0 L or a 139 PS (102 kW) 4G64 2.4 L GDI, mated to a standard INVECS-II 4-speed semi-automatic transmission. Both front- and four-wheel drive were available. The four-wheel drive version uses open differentials for the front and rear axles, with a viscous coupling unit for the center differential. A high performance model, called the Turbo R, was introduced in 2002 and used a detuned version of the Lancer Evolution’s 4G63T 2.0 L I4 turbo. The engine produced 240 PS (180 kW) and 343 N?m (253 lb?ft), although in export markets the Outlander version’s output was reduced to 202 PS (149 kW) and 303 N?m (223 lb?ft). The return of four-cylinder engines under 2.0 liters offered Japanese buyers a vehicle that was in compliance with Japanese regulations concerning exterior dimensions and engine displacement, however, the exterior dimensions exceed Japanese regulations for the “compact” designation.

The E65/E66/E67/E68 is the fourth generation 7 Series, which was produced from 2002 to 2008. The model range consisted of standard length and long wheelbase (“Li” models) sedans.
The E65/E66/E67/E68 was the first BMW to include iDrive, “flame-surfacing” exterior styling, active anti-roll bars, a 6-speed automatic transmission, an electronic smart Key (dispensing with the traditional metallic key) and night vision. The 760i model was the world’s first production V12 engine to use direct injection. mazda wallpapers, koenigsegg wallpaper, bugatti wallpapers, BMW 7 Series wallpapers, koenigsegg wallpapers
(Nissan)Austin Motor Company relations (1937?1960s) From 1934 Datsun began to build Austin 7s under licence. This operation became the greatest success of Austin’s overseas licensing of its Seven and marked the beginning of Datsun’s international success.

(Audi A5) The RS5 also has an active rear differential that can apportion power between the rear wheels to create a similar effect, or even oversteer; in normal conditions, quattro all wheel drive delivers 60% of the engine?s torque rearward and rising to as much as 85 percent depending on conditions.
According to Quattro GmbH chief Stephan Reil, the 4.2 FSI engine is based upon Audi’s 5.2 FSI V10 engine (found in the D3 Audi S8 and Audi R8) with two cylinders removed.
The vehicle was unveiled at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show. Sales of the Audi RS5 began in spring 2010. ford wallpapers, ferrari wallpapers, audi wallpapers, Audi A5 wallpapers, chevrolet wallpapers

History In 1994, Mercedes-Benz confirmed that it would be launching a compact car – the A-Class (A 160) – by early 1997, which would be the company’s first venture in this sector of the market; it was hinted at this stage that the new car would be shorter than the average supermini but as spacious and practical inside as a large family car. mclaren wallpapers, bmw wallpaper, nissan wallpapers, Mercedes A Class wallpapers, nissan wallpapers

(Toyota Prius)Etymology and terminology Prius is a Latin word meaning “first”, “original”, “superior” or “to go before”.
In February 2011, Toyota USA asked the US public to decide on what the most proper plural form of Prius should be, with choices including Prien, Prii, Prium, Prius, or Priuses. The company announced on 20 February that “Prii” was the most popular choice, and the new official plural designation in the US.
In Latin prius is the neuter singular of the comparative form (prior, prior, prius) of an adjective with only comparative and superlative (the superlative being primus, prima, primum). As with all neuter words, the Latin plural is priora, but that brand name was used by the Lada Priora in 2007. Despite the “official” plural form used by Toyota USA, “Priuses” is widely used in English. Toyota Prius wallpapers#Ferrari599 #PaganiZonda #Lamborghini #Subaru #AudiRS3

(Porsche 918 Spyder)RSR At the 2011 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Porsche unveiled the RSR racing variant of the 918 Spyder. Instead of using plug-in hybrid technology, power for the two electric motors is provided by a flywheel accumulator KERS system that sits beside the driver in the passenger compartment. The V8 is a further development of the direct injection engine from the RS Spyder race car developing 414 kW (563 PS; 555 hp) at 10,300 rpm. The electric motors each provide an additional 150 kW (200 PS; 200 hp), giving a peak power output of 564 kW (767 PS; 756 hp). The six speed gearbox is a development of the unit from the RS Spyder.

The California is equipped with an exclusive Ferrari designed F1-Trac system. The system, originally introduced on the 599 GTB Fiorano, was updated for the model. The variable power distribution to the rear wheels allows greater stability and performance in roadway turns. The result is an average increase of 20% in acceleration when exiting curves (when compared to traditional traction control systems).
Configuration The grand touring California was available with two passenger seating configurations. The first option (2+2), included two rear seats that are limited in space and arguably only capable of accommodating small child safety seats. The second option (2+), did away with the rear seats replacing them with a bench storage area. This storage area could accommodate slightly more luggage or personal effects than the seats and included matching leather luggage tie-down belts. aston martin wallpapers, car wallpaper, mercedes wallpapers, Ferrari California wallpapers, toyota wallpapers
(Mazda RX-8)Mid-cycle refresh (2008?2012) In November, 2008, Mazda engineers improved the RX-8 body rigidity through the addition of structural reinforcements, by adding a trapezoidal shock tower brace and enhancing the local rigidity of the front suspension tower areas. The rear suspension geometry was revised for better handling, and the final-drive-gear ratio on manual transmission cars was shortened from 4.444 to 4.777 for improved off-the-line performance. While minimal, these changes gave the updated RX-8 increased acceleration and performance. Mazda engineers claimed that the 2nd generation RX-8 was (slightly) faster than the previous generation due to the lower gearing and improved suspension. The Renesis II engine iteration that was launched in the 2009 model year included a third oil injection port in each rotor housing to feed oil to the middle of the rotor facing, making this their first all-new EMOP (Electric Metering Oil Pump) with a total of 6 lubrication injectors, plus an all-new engine oil pump.

The Mercedes-Benz 190 SL (W121) is a two-door luxury roadster produced by Mercedes-Benz between May 1955 and February 1963. Internally referred to as W121 (BII or B2), it was first shown in prototype at the 1954 New York Auto Show, and was available with an optional removable hardtop.
The 190 SL presented an attractive, more affordable alternative to the exclusive Mercedes-Benz 300 SL, sharing its basic styling, engineering, detailing, and fully independent suspension. Both cars had double wishbones in front and swing axles at the rear. Instead of the 300 SL’s expensive purpose-built W198 tubular spaceframe, the 190 SL’s R121 structure used a shortened unitary floorpan modified from the W121 base saloon. toyota wallpapers, car wallpaper, mazda wallpapers, Mercedes 190SL wallpapers, bentley wallpapers

(Nissan President)President PGF50 The third generation was introduced in mid-2001, based on the F50 Nissan Cima, which debuted in 2001, being also powered by the same 4.5-litre VK45DE V8 engine. It retained its top position as the flagship limousine at the reorganized Japanese Nissan dealerships called Nissan Blue Stage. Two versions are available, both badged Sovereign, with either five-passenger or four-passenger seating configuration. This model remained Nissan’s traditional competitor to the Toyota limousine Toyota Century, and competed for customers for three years with the all-new Mitsubishi Dignity as the top level flagship, however Mitsubishi chose to use front wheel drive.
The four-passenger version is considerably more expensive and features lavish equipment, including a Bose sound system and a host of other electronic devices controlled from a panel in the rear central armrest, as well as a “relaxing seat”?a feature allowing the left front passenger seat to be tilted forward, allowing the passenger in the rear to extend the rear seat forward and recline.
