Acabou a polêmica... ou aumentou ? Veloster não tem 140 cavalos.

Quando foi lançado aqui no Brasil, o Hyundai Veloster chamou muita atenção. Um carro com três portas, design diferente, apelo esportivo, bom pacote de itens e tecnologia não poderia passar em branco e logo conquistou o público jovem.

Mas uma questão também chamou atenção e foi alvo de questionamentos dos especialistas, a potência do motor. Tudo por conta da divulgação inicial das especificações técnicas, sendo prometido um Veloster equipado com motor 1.6 litros GDI com injeção direta de combustível. Após o alerta da imprensa especializada, a divulgação passou a ser o motor 1.6 16 válvulas sem injeção direta. Uma diferença enorme de tecnologia entre os dois tipos de motores.

Para tirar a dúvida de qual a real potência do motor, a Revista Full Power - especializada em carros de alta performance submeteu o Veloster ao teste do dinamômetro(equipamento com várias funções capaz de medir as rotações do motor e potência gerada). 

O teste no dinamômetro constatou o que todos desconfiavam, um rendimento abaixo dos 140 cavalos. A potência aferida chegou em apenas 121 cavalos.

A partir de agora a polêmica acaba ou aumenta.

Ramp Travel Index: 2010 Toyota Land Cruiser with KDSS

With showers. I did not KDSS equipped 4x4 for more than one year ago, but now we had two in two weeks. It's not because we have a RTI ramp, it just worked that way.

I'm not complaining.

The first time I drove Toyota KDSS (Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System), returned in late 2007 when it was introduced completely redesigned 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser. All the cruises of the moment, come standard with KDSS.

The operating principle is the same as the 2011 Lexus GX 460 we saw last week. But the 200-series Land Cruiser platform used here is different from the 150-series Land Cruiser Prado GX platform that supports this fact becomes clear when you see the roll bars are different in these KDSS applications.
Place one of the poles in the GX 200 Series Land Cruiser KDSS system uses a two-part stabilizers. The majority of the front stabilizer bar (green) includes the chassis and extends to the other side where it connects to the lower control arm using a standard connection in the usual manner.

But on this side of the bend in the direction of a swivel joint to the second piece, which goes back and a link to this page together. If the screws on the bottom KDSS after the war.

On the pavement, swing and right and behind the pressure that is created to make this a solid cylinder and provides a solid pivot point, which is directly in line with the main stabilizer bar bushes. In this way the two pieces act as a bar and stabilzer functions normally.

Large pressure differences generate the opposite phase of the field conditions, a valve opens, allowing KDSS cylinders and small around the central point of the bar to swim. I mean the two stabilizer bar to break and does not exclude the ability to produce roll torque resistance.
Still feel? Maybe Toyota illustrations from the original 2008 press kit will help you. When the war is wrong with bureaucracy is a free service for missing around aimlessly response to the proposal on the left front tire. At this point, screw connections on the blue arrow to the right wrist.

When KDSS cylinder is solid, but the rear bar 2 / 2, because all joints distributed along the yellow axis. Despite all the hinge is marked with blue arrows to move, but it must, for floating-point, which is bolted to the frame in any way.
He decided to leave to us the smell, it seems, Toyota uses a slightly different approach KDSS two parts back. Such movements shaken up over a fixed point (yellow), only the front and rear cylinder (green). When the cylinder is confirmed by the relationship of all, to the point where they join the stabilizer (blue) remains fixed in space. Solid blue dot on the rear stabilizer bar to build up speed in the corners.

It is also published in the cylinder and connect endpoint (blue) to go around, stabilzer bar prevents the emergence of any resistance.
A tremendous amount of articulation, especially on the back, where the fixed axis, is the result.
And the numbers are good. Well, actually, the 200 Series Land Cruiser is a new leader in stocks unaffected cars we have tested with a score of 24.81 cm oil elevator wheel. This means that travel 72.6 inches to our RTI ramp.

Factor in the 112.2-inch wheelbase Cruiser and ramp travel index of 647 - on the top while the stock category. It's not bad for something so long wheelbase.

Until now, only in our short wheelbase 2-door Wrangler is better, but only after it has large tires, widened front track and stabilizer manually. Wrangler is also greatly helped by a solid front axle instead of the Land Cruiser "independent front suspension.

Of course. The Land Cruiser drives and processes much better than the modified Jeep Wrangler (or shares) on the road, but that's not what RTI is all about testing
Unfortunately, the powerful Land Cruiser and Highlander trick suspension, however, is affected by the disease. For smooth styling has the same type of plastic bumper integrated unit we saw in the 2011 Lexus GX 460th

The risk of scratches and damages in connection with this institution is exacerbated by the loss approach, which fell 24 to 20 degrees when the body was introduced in 2008. In addition. The 200 Series Cruiser to do with the nearly empty less ground clearance than the generation before, and a full 1.9 inches less than the 80-series Cruiser, which both preceded




But if you like 15 years, I am sure that the equipment that had something to do. KDSS is too good to ignore.

The new BMW X3 T-Shirts, Range Rover Evoque fail tests, Consumer Reports'

Like Rotten Tomatoes score can make or break a film's reputation and box office success, the way Consumer Reports' tests have the potential to increase vehicle sales, or in some cases forcing the car to drive back to the drawing board.

The last set of the vehicles tested by CR contains two SUVs, which, although different sizes, will compete in the premium segment: The second iteration of the BMW X3 and a brand new Challenger category, Range Rover Evoque.

For him, X3 xDrive28i scored 80 in the Czech driving test and got a "recommended" tag failed Range Rover Evoque a test score of 60 points and was placed on the bottom of his class.

"X3 is an impressive work that sporty handling, luxurious interior and surprising combination of fuel," says CR Auto Test Center Senior Director David Champion. He added that a strong acceleration, smooth, mobile transfer and a very good brakes.

Bavarian model got good grades, thanks to the steering wheel, interior quality and the ability to calm the passengers isolated for noise and imperfections. All in all, outscored all other BMW X3 models in its segment, the Audi Q5 at least 3.2.

Range Rover 2.0-liter compressor was praised for the design, impressive acceleration, braking and six-speed automatic transmission. CR also liked the interior and the treatment of full-length glass roof.

But according to Consumer Reports, that the good stuff ends there. Champions in their own words, "although stylistically Evoque has won many awards in the press, including North American Truck of the Year, our rigorous testing reveals very few mistakes."

To begin Evoque was criticized as artificial management, restless ride, cramped and noisy cabin and a lack of visibility. CR notes that accompany the tests also revealed shortcomings in the treatment.

"Evoque corners offer, but its steering feels artificially weighted behavior, damaging feedback. Then pushed his handling of the constraints on our way, the tail slipped out of the vehicle wheels on several occasions during evasive maneuvers."

In the same number assigned to the Consumer Reports 'recommended' tag in the Toyota Prius, VW Tiguan, but Wrangler Unlimited. Jeep 4x4 is not good acceleration and off-road, but was criticized by CR testers almost everything from handling and braking on more trivial matters such as the removal of the roof.
