Eterniti aggiorna la Hemera e rivela i primi bozzetti della supercar
Eterniti Motors rimette mano alla Hemera, la SUV da poco meno di 180.000 euro costruita sulla base della Porsche Cayenne Turbo: all'anteriore arrivano un fascione e gruppi ottici completamente ridisegnati. Cambiamenti che non stravolgono il genoma dell'auto (ancora perfettamente riconoscibile) ma, se non altro, aiutano a dare una piccola dose di personalità in più al progetto....

Motor Trend: Corvette Z06 e Ferrari 430 Scuderia sono le sportive dalla miglior frenata
Classificare 22 automobili sportive in base alle rispettive virtù in fase di frenata può sembrare quasi un paradosso. Ma come?, invece di accelerare i ragazzi di Motor Trend si preoccupano della frenata? Questo perché siamo così abituati ad esaminare i valori di accelerazione, ripresa e allungo che quasi non consideriamo la capacità delle odierne supersportive nello staccare impressionanti 100-0 km/h....

Google patenta un sistema de conducción autónomo
Filed under: Tecnología Si la idea de falsear el sonido motor ya es motivo de escándalo para algunos, será mejor si tratamos de ahuyentar de nuestras frágiles mentes la aberrante idea de los vehículos autónomos. Aunque sólo sea para mantenerla ajena hasta que finalmente se hagan realidad, porque ya se puede considerar algo cierto que llegarán tarde o temprano. Una de las compañías que más está trabajando en este tipo de máquinas es...

Volvo C70 Inscription will cost an extra $3,900
Filed under: Car Buying, Convertible, Volvo, Luxury The first quarter of 2012 will see the introduction of the Volvo C70 with the Inscription package. The Polestar-modified hardtop droptop carries a $3,900 premium above the four-seater's $40,450 MSRP and is "exclusive to the North American market," although exclusivity in this case appears to mean we get 500 of the car's 2,000-unit global volume. Those 39 Benjamins will get you 250 horsepower and 273 pound-feet...

Find My Car Smart app makes finding your car fast, hassle-free
Filed under: Technology There are plenty of "find my car" apps for both Android and iOS, but all of them require you to launch the app, drop a pin and hope the GPS signal is strong enough to be pinpoint accurate.

España: Toyota reduce la oferta del Auris
Filed under: Toyota, Híbridos, verdes y alternativos, Compactos Toyota acaba de efectuar algunos cambios en la gama del Auris, de manera que ahora hay menos variantes disponibles.

California launches campaign against 3,000-mile oil changes
Filed under: Etc., Legislation and Policy If you ask the typical driver how often they should change their oil, the answer would likely be about 3,000 miles. But thanks to advances in engine and oil technology, the 3,000-mile barrier is just a number. Many vehicles can travel 7,500 miles or more between oil changes, but still a large number of drivers head to the nearest oil change facility for their 3,000-mile fix. The...
