Yesterday I posted that the new Lamborghini will feature a new V12 engine and some cutting edge touches. I ended the post by saying more news soon. ( Lamborghini Aventador 700-4 ) Today is soon. We have the press release. First on GMI.

TACHOMETER The tachometer is essentially a gauge that can display an engine's revolutions per minute (rpm or revs). Traction Control System TCS Developed to minimize wheel slippage through turns and low grip surfaces, Traction Control works by using the ABS wheel sensors to detect if any of the wheels is spinning uncontrollably and individually brake it or even reduce engine power until the grip is restored. Turbo Diesel direct Injection TDI TDI is Volkswagen's AG trademarked moniker for their Turbo Diesel direct Injection engines. While in the beginning they were all direct injection engines, now common rail ones also bear the same name in the VAG group. TELEAID The TELEAID is a Mercedes-Benz optional feature based on a built-in telephone. Essentially, it can emit an automatic distress call to alert emergency services in the case of an accident. Depending on the type of accident or vehicle, th

SEDAN The sedan is the most common configuration of a modern automobile. Sedans usually have four doors, although the term can be used to describe a two-door body also. Most of them have a three-box configuration, but two-box bodies are also common, mostly in Europe. SEMI ELLIPTIC MULTI LEAF SPRINGS Usually found on trucks and sport utility vehicles, this type of springs consists of arched steel leafs that are stacked together horizontally to form the foundation of the rear suspension. SEQUENTIAL TURBOCHARGERS Sequential turbochargers were created from the need to decrease spooling lag. Two or sometimes more turbochargers are put to work in sequence. Usually, a smaller one begins working at low rpms and the other(s) at higher rpms, thus improving the power delivery throughout the power curve, not only above a certain number of revs. SHIFT-ON-THE-FLY Most part-time four-wheel drive systems in the past required their dri

RACK-AND-PINION STEERING Delivering a more precise feel than recirculating ball systems, rack-and-pinion steering is a common type of steering mechanism on modern automobiles. In simple terms, it consists of two gears that convert rotational movement into a linear one. One of the gears meshes with a rack (a toothed metal bar), which in turn is directly linked to the wheels via tire rods. By rotating the gear with the steering shaft, the circular motion converts into a linear one and moving the rack from side to side, therefore turning the wheels into the desired direction. RAMP BREAK-OVER ANGLE The ramp break-over angle measures a vehicle's ability to safely pass over a ramp without touching its underside. For the best break-over angle possible, a high ground clearance together with a short wheelbase are necessary. REBOUND Rebound is the opposite of jounce, so it's still a vertical motion of the wheel. In other words, when

Kompressor Kompressor Kompressor is the marketing name given by Mercedes-Benz to its supercharged engines and is also the German word for supercharger (or compressor).      

Chrysler Group LLC plans to bring the iconic Dodge Viper back to its lineup in the summer of 2012. The all-new Viper will be a 2013 model. The Auburn Hills automaker ceased production of the all-American sports car last summer after 18 years. There has been speculation since then that the hiatus would be short-lived and Chrysler would bring the car back.
