All New Chevrolet 2010 Equinox Gets Power Boost, Better Fuel Economy

Back in January General Motors revealed the all-new 2010 Chevrolet Equinox. Not only is the new Equinox based on a revised version of GM’s Theta crossover architecture, but two all-new engines are rounding out the Equinox lineup for 2010. At the announcement in January, GM denoted that the specifications on the Equinox’s two new engines were estimated figures, but nonetheless the figures were promising. GM claimed the coveted 30 miles-per-gallon rating on front-wheel drive models equipped with the direct-injected ECOTEC 2.4L VVT four-cylinder; a barrier that has not been crossed in the segment the Equinox competes with. In addition, they stated an estimated 255 HP out of the new direct-injected 3.0L High Feature V6.

Fast forward to this month and as the launch of the new ‘Nox continues to progress, GMI has learned that the specifications regarding the 2010 Equinox’s engines have been slightly revised. The good news is that all of the revisions appear to be in the “for the better” category; namely with the power output of the 3.0L V6. Below is a list of the specifications that have changed (and appear to be final numbers), as well as the preliminary figures.
Specifications
Direct-Injected ECOTEC 2.4L:

• 182 HP @ 6700 rpm (unchanged)
• 174 lb.-ft. torque @ 4800 rpm (up from 172 lb.-ft.)
• 21/30 MPG on FWD models (unchanged)
• 20/27 MPG on AWD models (unchanged)
• Projected 0-60 mph: 9.5 seconds (new information!)
Direct-Injected 3.0L High-Feature V6:

• 264 HP @ 6950 rpm (up from 255 HP)
• 222 lb.-ft. @ 5100 rpm (up from 214 lb.-ft.)
• 19/25 MPG on FWD models (up from 18/25 MPG)
• 18/24 MPG on AWD models (up from 17/24 MPG)
• Projected 0-60 mph: 7.8 seconds (new information!)

The most notable changes are obviously to the new V6. Note that the horsepower number has increased by 9 horsepower and city fuel economy has been boosted by one MPG for all V6 models. In addition, GMI has learned the projected 0-60 times, which are listed above. The 2.4L 0-60 appears to be in line with competition such as the Honda CR-V, which generally runs 9.5-10 seconds in the 0-60 runs. The V6 appears to be slightly behind competition such as the Toyota RAV4 V6, which achieves 60 MPH in about 6.3 seconds.

Production for the 2010 Chevrolet Equinox begins in May. The Equinox’s cousin, 2010 GMC Terrain, will be revealed next month at the 2009 New York International Auto Show. Terrain production is currently slated to start in August of this year. GMInsidenews will have all of the coverage from New York starting on April 8th!

Bugatti reveals Veyron 16.4 Gran Sport

Given the fact that there are over 1,000 horses, 16 cylinders, four turbos, all-wheel drive, 12 radiators and a wing that would fly a 777 already on board, it almost goes without saying: There's not a lot of extra room in the Bugatti Veyron 16.4. Certainly not enough for a retractable hardtop or even soft top. So, for the company's latest variation on the Veyron, the open-top Gran Sport, the company reached back into hallowed antiquity. "Two years ago, we saw a picture with an old Type 35," recounted Wolfgang Schreiber, technical director for Bugatti, at the press presentation Saturday night. "Two gentlemen were in the car and the co-pilot was holding an umbrella over their heads. We said, 'Why can't we use this idea with the Veyron?' "

An umbrella? Really? $1.7 million and you get an umbrella? Gene Kelly must be singing in the grave.

The new Veyron has a removable polycarbonate targa roof panel that owners hang on a special stand in the garage (I estimate the stand alone costs $50,000). Should drivers get caught in the rain without the roof, the car includes a special rectangular roof panel that opens like an umbrella/parasol/bumbershoot. The roof is then buttoned to the rectangular opening above the cockpit.

Depending on your degree of cynicism, this "tecknical zooolution" could be fun and charming, or downright weird. I'm pretty cynical. In any event, it doesn't rain much in the UAE or Kuwait, so the Veyron Parasol is less a practicality than a bid for romance. I'm OK with that. Also, Bugatti execs argued, the parasol works better than Lamborghini's whalebone and canvas top for the Murcielago roadster, which as far as recorded history knows, no one has ever managed to get on the car, or back in the freaking bag.

Other details from the conference: The Gran Sport will have LED daylight running lights (like Audi's only, um, more expensive), slightly taller windscreen, and diamond-cut alloy "rims." (I love it when German PhD's use the word "rims." It's so street.) Meanwhile, the car has been massively reinforced with carbon fiber elements to make up for the loss of structural rigidity once carried by the fixed roof.

It can touch speeds of over 407.5 kmph and can go from 0 to 62 mph in 2.5 seconds.
The supercar costs about $1.4 million (Rs 6.86 crore). The most expensive car is the new Aston Martin One-77 which costs $2.1 million (Rs 10.29 crore).

Bugatti Veyron car is made by Volkswagen's 100 per cent subsidiary, Bugatti Automobiles. The car has been named after Formula 1 racing driver Pierre Veyron, who won the Le Mans race in 1939 while driving for Bugatti. 
The car has a W16 engine, which is the equivalent of two narrow-angle V8 engines fused in a 'V' formation. Each of the car's cylinders has 4 valves making it a total of 64 valves. The engine is fed by four turbochargers.

The car also has a fantastic array of electronic equipment. The Veyron can be driven by full automatic transmission. The car's wheelbase is 2710 mm and its overall length is 4462 mm. It is 1998 mm wide and 1206 mm in height. The car's weight is about 1,890 kg. 

Bugatti to reveal its all new model at the Frankfurt Motor Show

It looks a lot like the 2008 Type 12-2 Streamliner concept

As expected, Bugatti plans to reveal its new car at the Frankfurt Motor Show, coincidentally coinciding with the company's centennial celebration. Here's the first teaser of the new exclusive super car from an invitation to the super-party.

As we mentioned back in March, details are slim if not downright non-existent, but the rumors have been flying recklessly regarding what niche market the next Bugatti model will fall under. Having already accomplished their goal of creating the world's fastest, highest powered super car, it would only make sense for the VW-owned company to venture out into the ultra luxury market. 
The competition is becoming fierce, with an ever growing range of Rolls Royce Phantom models and with Bentley dropping their new 'Grand Bentley' upon the world in August at the Pebble Beach Concours D'Elegance, it seems like a likely guess that this is the route Bugatti will follow. Will Bugatti lean on Bentley, borrowing resources from the new 'Grand Bentley' or will they produce their own bespoke chassis?

Turning our attention to the dark, scanned teaser above, we see what appears to be the rear view of the new Bugatti showing off high-tech LED tail lamps and a vertically mounted LED CHMSL. The height of the CHMSL makes us believe our initial thoughts are correct; that this is indeed a sedan and we wonder whether it will be an evolution of the 1999 EB218 concept in design.

As September draws closer, so will the teasers and details and we'll be following along closely. Stay tuned. 

Bugatti Galibier new photo and details

When you think of Bugatti, what immediately comes to mind? Probably most will conjure up images of one of the most desirable sports coupes available today, the beautiful Veyron EB 16.4 or its targa-topped cousin the Grand Sport, but history shows that the legendary French marque built a four-door passenger car that dates back nearly as far as its sports cars. 
Not much of lineage, only one Bugatti four-door was ever built, the 1927 through 1933 Type 41, best known as the Royale, although the luxury brands new owner, VW AG, will probably want to put together a sales model that sees higher numbers of this four-door model move through its Molsheim, France assembly facility than the six examples Ettore saw leave the factory in his day.

If you were thinking that Bugatti would pull the Royale name from the past, think again. While there has been some speculation on blogs on the new sedans name, Bordeaux being one that frequently pops up, Galibier appears to be the handle of choice. Galibier is an especially challenging Alpine pass in the Tour de France, fitting for a French-built sedan that will likely outpace any four-door that dares get in its way.

The new model, which was shown at a private invitation-only event for Bugatti owners and qualified wannabes prior to the upcoming Frankfurt auto show, wont give anything up to its two-door sibling. The same 8.0-litre W16 engine motivates all four-wheels, although the powerplant sits up front in the concept instead of over the rear axle like the current mid-engine Veyron. Whats more, in an effort to appease environmental concerns, it can guzzle an ethanol blend as well as gasoline.

Environmental issues wont be on the mind at its 350 km/h (217 mph) terminal velocity, mind you, a top speed that would make the Galibier the fastest four-door in the world, if produced.

Visually its two-tone polished aluminum and dark blue carbon fibre weave exterior panels can only be Bugatti, while the centre spine pulls heritage from classic Bugattis like the Type 35 and 57.

If built, the new four-door will expand Bugattis lineup to three models, and open up an entirely new market segment far above the parent automakers Bentley brand, or the British marques rivals, Rolls-Royce and Maybach.

Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Blue Carbon

Bugatti unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show two special editions of is impressive Veyron Grand Sport.One of these models dubbed Royal Dark Blue Special Edition, carries a bonnet, monocoque and rear section made of carbon fibretinted in a Royal Dark Blue colour that shows off the lustre of the fibre.
The air intakes and the grilles, excepting the highly polished radiator grille, are finished in the same Royal Dark Blue, creating in this way a striking contrast between the central part of the car and the Arctic White side panels. The inner sides of the rims are also painted in Royal Dark Blue.
Regarding the EB logos on the wheels, fuel and oil filler cap, these are still made of polished aluminium as usual. As you expected, inside the cabin the color scheme is extended and we find the same combination of blue and white. The dashboard, centre console, seats and interior trim panels are all made of dark blue Indigo Leather, with white stitching on the steering wheel, seats, centre console and gearshift knob making a striking contrast. If you want to buy the car we have very bad news… it already been sold for an impressive 1.75 million euros (ex works).
