Audi R8 is audi first production run, it with famous super racing the R8, to commemorate the audi in le mans won numerous awards and the birth of a Lemans Quattro concept car as the prototype, the current time with audi FSI technology for infrastructure, plus incomparable Quattro raider system, R8 is destined to be born a racing track.
It 420 horsepower and 430 cow meters of performance, let me another decade numerical and unforgettable, high performance, especially when the turn, R8 is born to let the world know the audi can also create such a fast machines.
But it is not so, the inside is carrying V8 engine, audi vehicles in early release after 2 years V8 protests gradually, fans, originally intended to carry on the R8, we have finally v10s lucky in the famous Fuji high-speed track a taste of new R8 v10s. We want to tell you is it really comes from another world.
See it first glance, I have felt V8 model, a new light passing the R8 v10s R8 has the largest 525 horse horsepower and 530 cow meters of peak torque, although it will still control the chassis; model V8 Turn off the gas, traction assisted the instantaneous wheel has begun to appear in the idling, obviously after the initial few, then I see it is more fun than V8 model.
You have no reason picky it all aluminum body structure, audi engineers in this area is the most articulate, how the body part adopts the 92 lightweight alloy material, guarantees the body lightweight, also have the absolute spaceframe, you may not believe the R8 chassis quality only 210 kg!
Hang on, before using the car still v10s long range double wishbone suspension, suspension material still use of lightweight alloy forging. Before ZR19/30 + 235 after the tyres and 30S rmb295 / braking system and almost all weight V8 type 60 kg, load distribution in the R8 v10s has little change, from the 44:56 into now before 46:54.
Audi as it is with six speed manual gearbox, if you are willing to spend six million RMB, you can choose the high-tech, steering gear of dial Tronic electric automatic transmission, R. The engine characteristics to turn when still, the maximum output power and peak torque in 8000rpm and 6500rpm when outbreak.
This engine will R8 real v10s super car to take on the engine, I again level outstanding rebekah. Fuji is a high-speed circuit, it’s long straight enough to accelerate the beast over 300km/h. This kind of feeling, use in downtown than you have 3 more generous under driving. Transmission performance also belong to the super run level, you can even hear when cut out metal gear clutch.
Braking system, can say with level than many opponents and no special window. Throttle operating experience, it is criticized and isn’t bad, but if you trueer to the speed control in a fixed value, you will find a bit difficult, speed table pointer will not very smooth transition to the target area. It is also worth mentioning the electromagnetic suspension of rheological state expressway, regardless of the daily, suspension or a robust, give drivers enough confidence.
The R8 Quattro full-time raider system under the condition of daily in the distribution of torsion is between 8 and in the fierce, but the driving condition, in order to adjust the posture, between driving torque distribution can reach zero, so her bonds wherewith the Lord R8 is rear rotating.
In some extent, Quattro does for accelerating performance, also brings some help with greater horsepower, R8 v10s can easily make elegant action. If the speed of 4.2 V8 model to let you surging, so when you tried this 5.2 v10s R8 after, you will find it really comes from another world.
What impressed us remains high, audi R8 the car chassis technology is applied on it as soon as possible, is not only accelerating imagination, kill bending of kung fu is absolutely not in any super run, the key is to give drivers more R8, let you have the confidence to test every corner in the corner.

Topics at the Tokyo Motor Show, we have notice before, Lexus LF-Ch hybrid concept car, there will be a world premier of “Two seat supercar”. Only based on the Nurburgring track in early 2009 to light one after another spy photos guess is that two versions of one.

Lexus LF-A

Did not think the answer is so simple and had previously wrapped in heavy equipment in the car LF-A production version and later traveling light is unknown Lexus two-seater sports car with a small car – the 2005 debut of the LF-A Concept mass-produced version of the car. In the Tokyo Motor Show Press Day on the first, LF-A production version of the heavyweight stars as the Lexus grand debut.

LF-A

After the veil off, LF-A’s true face for the first time made public. Shape context, LF-A concept car with no difference, but some of the details changed to a more practical design. Power, the Lexus’s first ultra-run equipped with the 72-degree angle of the 4.8-liter V10 engine, maximum power 418kw/8700rpm, maximum torque 480Nm/6800rpm, i.e. in the 9000rpm red line reaches the engine speed range of This shows that Toyota does make every effort to squeeze the engine power.

LF-A

And Peng Pai power matched by a six-speed sequential semi-automatic transmission, equipped with steering wheel gear change paddles. LF-A at this time to accelerate from standstill to 100km / h takes only 3.7 seconds, the maximum speed reached 325km / h. In order to better control the speed of the body under the dynamic, LF-A uses the wheel between the Torsen limited-slip differential. Supplemented by top-BBS Bridgestone tires (front 265/35 ZR20, after the 305/30 ZR20), LF-A in the specifications is like one serious supercar.

However, at the beginning of the Nurburgring 24 hour endurance race, the racing version of the LF-A performance and unsatisfactory, a ranked only 87th place, while the other one is simply due to engine failure and were destroyed. After perhaps half a year after the improvement, LF-A will be to enhance endurance. Lexus LF-A has identified a limited production of 500, so prices will not only shockingly expensive, and domestic consumers are likely to not buy this LF-A. Perhaps we should look forward to Zeng Yi-off concept car unveiled as open-top version of the LF-A.

The exhibition of the Audi R8 Spyder, the whole body with a large red spray paint, looks very eye-catching, carbon fiber rear-view mirror, and aluminum wheels make this car sporty. Equipped with a V10 engine, the peak horsepower up to 525, from the resting state to 60 mph do not have 4 seconds.

R8 Spyder

Also worth mentioning is that the Audi R8 Spyder has no fixed roof, using the chassis reinforcement plate adds some weight, but its all-aluminum body architecture has only 216 kilograms, compared with the R8 Coupe body structure weighs only 6 kg . Audi R8 Spyder manual transmission 5.2 FSI quattro models only the total weight of 1720 kilograms. This is the ultra-high speed it can achieve one of the key factors.

Dongfeng Nissan is about to be listed on the introduction of the domestic sales of NISSAN GT-R, has a “God of War”, “World super sports car”, “Japan’s national treasures ultra-running,” “all-powerful super sports car” and many other good reputation. Although the NISSAN GT-R is not a hundred years of history, but it is from the date of birth had never been disappointing. In February 1969 the first generation NISSAN GT-R officially off the assembly line, and then from 1969 to 1972 has made 50 consecutive games unbeaten record of excellence since then has become famous.

NISSAN GT-R

As the world’s super sports car, twin-turbocharged V6 engine is almost NISSAN GT-R has become synonymous with consummate technology enables NISSAN GT-R to dominate the number of events, dynamic power is its best side. In the NISSAN GT-R up to 7 years of research and development process, a lot of effort are placed in the engine development efforts. “God of War”, all the components are the world’s top level: VR38DETT engine is ever Japanese production car the most power systems, GR6 DSG dual-clutch transmission to reach the standard of professional racers shift; Brembo braking system with the Ferrari, Porsche and other luxury car in the world to share. These equipment have all gone through the test of the world’s super-run contest, and NISSAN GT-R won the “God of War” in the name. Recently in April 2008 and April 2009, NISSAN GT-R Nurburgring circuit in Germany, respectively, ran out of the seven minutes 29 seconds and 7 minutes 26 seconds 70 lap times, beyond the large number of European brands ultra-running, vibration caused by the European car scene.


Always based on “the people” image of the show’s “God of War” NISSAN GT-R this year, actively running the domestic Changchun, Chengdu and other major auto show, and in October through the Dongfeng Nissan official launch of the domestic pre-sales channel is expected to be end of the year officially for sale, for a time, leading to much media and the fans of the strong concerns.

The car is the world’s steepest – at least once was. In the Bugatti Veyron (I do not think who would want to control what is this thing called the Air-wai, right?) Before the appearance, this is called the Swedish Koenigsegg CCR producing ultra-running (and accurate to say that this car belongs to Hypercar level, rather than the Supercar ) had to 387.9km / h speed of the speed records set. The car in the recent arrival of Tianjin Port Free Trade Zone International Auto City, no accident, of course, only one.

Although this year in 2004 -2006 produced CCR “only” at the Nurburgring circuit, North Central, ran 7 minutes 34 seconds of the results, and even super-but a GT-R, but after all, the Ministry of rare Hypercar, is not it? Ford Racing offers a maximum output of up to 806hp, the maximum torque is also up to 920Nm of crazy levels of dual-supercharged 4.7L V8 engine, almost lavish use of carbon-fiber frame and body, pure car instrument panel (I suspect that This is a British brand Our films, the Pan-PRD race car who use this style in many of the instrument panel), 6-speed sequential gearbox, and prototype cars, like a transverse shock absorbers, the light weight of just 1180kg, but also There was breathtaking intake exhaust sound, all are the reasons for her selection, not to mention the starting price of this car has been on as high as 59 million U.S. dollars.

Of course, if you need to “practical” point of the sports car, or suggest that you take a 100 to 10000 buy a Nissan GT-R it, like the Na Wanyi pull the wind, perhaps even faster on the track, not to mention less expensive GT-R much more – is now even Zheliang CCR dealer has not yet announced the price of the car, but it is certainly not cheap, take a look at the original price was 590,000 U.S. dollars to know. To know, that was the Hypercar, repeat, HYPER CAR.

After many, many rounds of shots not pelelezane, final details of the production of images released much-anticipated Lexus halfa SuperCar, which will drive production limited to 500 units will be sold for – get ready – $ 375,000. (Start saving your pennies.)

Information about this is nothing short of SuperCar shares, though its front-engine, rear-drive Configuration is a change of pace from Audis and Lambos that we’ve learned to love. 0-62 miles per hour? 3.7 seconds. Top speed? 202 mph. We’re ready for some track time.

If you have money, you can put your garage halfa starting in early 2011 and take a Nissan GT-R hunting. Click through the mail to the press release the book through our gallery of images above to see all halfa Anglès.

Tokyo, October 21, 2009 – Lexus will advertise the official launch of halfa today, two seat SuperCar scheduled to end production of the Pinnacle in 2010 as the Lexus “F” premium sports car series. Pre-sales begin today.
Ultra-sensitive and not very stable even when taken to the edge, the halfa creates a sense of reassurance that opens up new world of driving emotions, senses exhilarating move more in the driver than one.
The halfa you mix the high output, superb meticulous chassis design and aerodynamics to reach a total car-instantaneous response characteristics and high-rev, seamless pipes quicker meal was independently Participation resonance from its 4.8-liter V10.
Only 500 units produced halfa is to be sold worldwide.
A current example is halfa display in the 41 Tokyo Motor Show, which is open to the general public from October 24 to November 4 at Makuhari esse in Makuhari, Chiba region.
1. Installation brings out the most basic functions
Power and light
Development of new 4.8-liter V10 engine boasts exceptional power, while lightweight materials (aluminum alloy, magnesium alloy and titanium alloy) and a very compact size (smaller than normal V8) allows for optimal weight distribution and exceptional power-to-weight ratio .
Carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) Cabin enhances high-rigidity body and reduces weight. Cabin unique is 100 kg lighter than comparable aluminum Cabin. Detailed analysis and precise matching of the CFRP materials allows high rigidity and lower weight. Halfa CFRP production technology, including unique CFRP-to-metal joining, he was completely developed by Lexus.
relatively balanced weight components like engine and transmission are placed in wheelbase. A low center of gravity is made possible by using a dry sump lubrication1, including setting aside factors (oil pump, water pump) back of the engine. The optimal placement of the transmission and the fuel tank before the rear axle this application adds centralized mass. This minimizes the weight shift during cornering and contributes to better performance and stability. Lighter weight components, such as electrical and radiator fans, is placed behind the rear axle.
Combined with front-engine and rear-wheel-drive Configuration, short term, the extent and nature allows the body to reach his goal halfa front-to-rear weight distribution of 48:52.
Driver-centered 
 driver seat is positioned near the center of halfa’s influence. Seating the centralized concept (with the seat between the front and back axles, and almost left-right center) is made possible by the use of rear transaxle and torque tube vertically characteristics and exhaust pipes to reduce the width of the middle Tunnel. Driver is set to maximum target-to-vehicle driver feedback, especially under the game or the high G-force car conditions.
2. Emotive performance embodies an extraordinary driving experience
High-rev engine
Titanium valves, Ultra-light weight Rocker arms and diamonds as coatings and fully under crankcase that reduces pumping losses at high RPMs combine to provide the driver with the right break to faster 9000 rpm redline. The halfa purpose-built V10 announced 90% of its maximum torque rpm between 3700 and 9000 rpm.
Precise Response
Independent, electronically controlled to ensure precise Throttle body air-feed each of the 10 cylinders, facilitating rapid engine response from the accelerator Pedal. Engine response time is about half the normal time of response of single-Throttle valve.
ASG six-speed transmission features heavy-duty synchronizer ring and gearshift actuator for new development, providing the driver to feel the changes and direct. Selectable four-car modes and seven step-speed shift selector that results upshift broadband speeds under 0.2 seconds to provide a higher level of driver control.
Track-sized high-performance (Carbon CERAMIC) CCM and brake discs and the system electronically Controlled Braking produce Ultra-stable braking power yet.
Responsive handling and involvement and behavior
Very light and rigid CFRP Cabin, with two wishbone front suspension and multilink rear suspension, results in very stable, controlled ride. Detailed engineering results in the aerodynamic components such as flat underbody, a diffuser and speed-controlled rear wing, which allows the car correct answer to all broadband speeds when the vehicle, creating unity between driver and machine.
Dynamics Integrated Management vehicle incorporates various vehicle dynamic performance that provide higher level of vehicle stability and preventive safety without interfering with the intention of the driver, especially during sports driving.
Exciting engine sound and L-

An acoustically tuned tank associated with increased personal 10 capacity building Throttle body induction sound. Coordination of intake and exhaust size will cover various RPMs to create unique, exciting and led soundtrack.
The exterior design includes carefully tuned aerodynamics and airflow management. Use of CFRP, with increasing power and weight advantage, exterior design frees up panels allow a fresh SuperCar L-finesse design. Design is the interior combines state-of-the-art instrument-panel design and technology, and the kind of custom-targeted in TRIM package to identify the most appropriate driver.
