Latest Car Extreme

The car manufacturers are now beginning to leave the production car that weighs more than a ton with only carry one person. German car manufacturer Loremo one example, are now beginning to create a lightweight car.

Weighing only 450 kg, two cars with fuel-efficient enough. Loremo LS only consumes one liter to 66.7 km, it only takes 20 seconds to accelerate from 0-100 km per hour speed and reaches a maximum speed of 160 km per hour. Meanwhile, the Loremo GT per liter to reach 37 km, with a speed of 000-100 km per hour just 9 seconds and reach a maximum speed of 220 km per hour.


Loremo using two-cylinder turbodiesel engine that is able to produce 20 bhp for LS and three-cylinder turbodiesel engine capable of producing 49 bhp for GT. The machine was placed between the driver, front passenger and rear passengers. Because the door was in front and back of the car, the car becomes more robust structure than an ordinary car. Another benefit is the Loremo car is resistant to wind. Loremo will be sold starting next year, for the type of LS will be sold at 11,000 euros and the GT will be sold for 15,000 Euros in Europe.

Buying a hybrid car is more than a calculated decision to save fuel. It is a statement about "saving the planet".

Even if the chances are pretty slim that hybrid technology will actually make much difference, it gives hybrid owners the right to feel superior. After all, they care about the planet. And the rest of the world obviously doesn't.

But if you're one of those hybrid owners you'd better be ready to lose some friends. Here's why...

1. You're Driving Way Too Slow

In theory at least, hybrid owners are the antithesis of those guys who just ache to get in that passing lane and leave the rest of us behind. You know the type...you're minding your own business coming out onto the expressway and the otherwise ordinary guy in the vehicle behind you swings out and passes even before you've hit the highway.

Hybrid owners seem to do just the opposite. You've known for years that driving slow saves fuel. So you're likely to be driving under the speed limit rather than over like the rest of the world.

The fact that you're driving a hybrid just makes it worse, since you know that all the potential savings are squandered if you try to go fast.

Especially when you're accelerating. That guy in the high powered vehicle who pulls out and passes... the thought of saving gas has never crossed his mind. But hydrid owners know better. For you it's a moral duty to save fuel. The fate of the planet depends on it. So there's no way you're going to try any of that fast acceleration stuff.

2. What's with the Pulse and Glide Stuff

You've been told that "pulse and glide" can make a serious difference to your gas milage. That's where you accelerate (conservatively) to the speed limit, and then let the car "glide" to 10 or more miles per hour below the speed limit. Repeat this procedure. Repeat this procedure. Repeat this procedure...

I once had a friend who drove like this. I thought he was dozing off between pulses, but now I know differently. He was actually doing the environmentally responsible thing.

My friend's driving habits aside, this practice is not going to endear you to all the rest of the drivers who can't figure out why you keep slowing down. It's probably smart to speed up just a little when you find yourself in anything other than the "slow" lane.

All bets are off when they let you use the carpool lane.

3. You Just Won't Inch Forward Will You!

Everybody else in the world knows that you must "inch" forward during stop and go traffic. How else are you going to keep up with the driver in front. Besides, if you leave more than about a 15' gap between you and the guy ahead somebody's going to jump into the gap and slow you down even more.

Hybrid drivers have been told this "inching forward" stuff is pointless and wastes fuel. And the way they build hybrids these days they've got a point. When you take your foot off the brake pedal the auto-stop turns off and the gasoline engine restarts -- like one of those gasoline engine golf carts. And there goes most of your gas savings. All those stops and starts just eat up the gas.

But don't expect your mono-drive cousins to understand. They've only got one thing in mind: to get wherever they're going just as fast as possible. And everybody knows that racing up behind the guy in front is the only way to make that happen.

4. Do you really think you should be drafting me like that?

The responsible hybrid owner will make use of every advantage to save gas. And drafting larger vehicles is one technique that the more aggressive will try. That's where you pull right up behind a semi, a van, or an SUV and try to stay in the pocket of air they are pulling along behind them.

I remember doing this with an old '65 Beetle a few years back. We were travelling along the New York Thruway drafting semis. We were making great time and saving lots of gas... until we blew a rod.

Of course, sticking on someone's bumper will not endear you to too many of your fellow drivers. And as I discovered, it's a bit dangerous too. You'll find yourself going quite a bit faster than you otherwise would go. And whipping along in that back-draft does not do a lot for your stability.

Just try to remember, when you're out there on the highway trying to save the planet, the rest of the world could care less about your morally superiour driving habits. All they want to do is get where they're going as fast as they can.

Perhaps many do not believe, but this is in fact, a hybrid car roadster, the Veritas RS III, capable of racing up to 330 kilometers per hour (kpj). In fact, the acceleration from rest to a speed of 100 kpj (sprint) taken within 3.1 seconds or 0.1 seconds adrift just slower than the standard version.



As reported by worldnewsco.com, Tuesday (15 / 3), a car made by Vermot AG - a German sports car manufacturer - has undergone some speed testing at the circuit Nurburgring, Germany. "This car is owned by BMW's V10 engine with a capacity of 5000 cc and powered by 507 horsepower," the page was written.

However, additional thanks to an electric motor with a capacity of 105 kilowatts, the total power generated Veritas RS III to 600 horsepower. Only, the weight increases because of the additional 500 pounds of lithium ion batteries that store energy source stun.

Thus, when compared to conventional-engined version of the standard speed is more than 10 kpj. Still, this car still be the fastest among other hybrid variants.

Another advantage is the technology offered Vermot Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS). Technology is able to recycle the energy that should be wasted when braking into a new power to charge the electric motor. As a result, drivers do not have to worry about running out of electric motors would come up short stun source.

Vermot claim, if the driver wants to drive using only the electric motor only they can cover the distance by 50 kilometers. In fact, as the car sped with maximum speed.

Mercedes-Benz is preparing the hybrid cars to market penetration in Europe and the United States.



German car manufacturing is targeted within the next three years hybrid cars it flooded the market. In order to realize this obsession, Stuttgart will accelerate and expand the production of hybrid variants in the C-Class, E-Class and S-Class.



"We have a leading position in the premium segment and the concentration to lingkungann friendly cars with alternative energy," said Herbert Kohler, head of Daimler's E-Drive & Future Mobility unit.


Variants C and E-Class hybrid versions began to enter the European market in 2013. While the S-Class plug-in hybrid to the U.S. market in 2014.

Currently the market for the country, Uncle Sam, Mercedes-Benz offers a mild-hybrid S-400 and M-Class Hybrid full.

Hybrids not only perform above average on mileage (the Honda insight can reach above sixty mpg) but reduce their gas emissions and air pollution considerably. Toyota Prius, for example has a 90% reduction in the amount of pollution that would otherwise be in the air. And although this is not perfect it has improved the current standard considerably



About one third of air pollution is caused by the fuel used in cars. The major culprit is the carbon dioxide which causes global warming. Compared to regular cars, the Toyota Prius reduces the amount of carbon dioxide by fifty percent. And the hybrid made by Honda has reduced its emissions by two thirds. Nitrogen oxide, a chemical found in car emissions, not only causes global warming, but will cause acid rain and lung irritations. Hydrocarbons is another substance found in gas emissions from a car and this can cause birth defects or lung cancer. Lead is also released in the air as is carbon monoxide every time the car is in motion. Imagine sitting in rush hour with all those toxic gases being released in the air.

With a hybrid the gases and other substances are dramatically reduced. Because more and more people are becoming concerned about air pollution and global warming, car makers are rushing to meet the demand. There are the hybrid models from Toyota and Honda and Ford. But Saturn and Mazda and GM are following suit. <

The EPA is also participating in encouraging this trend by supplying more information to the consumer about the hybrid cars. There are new ratings in place. One is the ultra low emissions vehicle (ULEV) and the other is the super low emissions vehicle (SLEV). The hybrids on the market today receive either one of the ratings but regular cars never reach the mark.

There is a system in place that the EPA uses to rate cars. It gives two scores, one for the green house gases and the other for air pollution. In the seventies, there was a law passed that required cars to keep to certain standards. Regular cars barely met the requirement. Even if you took into consideration things like speed, weather or location, that may change the outcome of results. It doesn't reduce the high scores of the hybrids. In fact, this score can be perfect at times because the hybrid runs on electric power too. So that reliance on gas is decreased, making the hybrid the better choice of car in the market today for the EPA
