Future Cars | Mercedes-Benz Presents Cyborg Cars

Future Cars
Ever imagine what kind of vehicles suitable for young children more adventurous in the next 2040 years? Mercedes-Benz tried to give its image, through the car cyborg?

Future cars this German manufacturer called Cyborg Sensation Vehicle (CSV), the work of the designer of China, Derek Chik Kin Ng.

Indeed this car is still far from production, Mercedes-Benz plans to pound the CSV-dealer dealership on 2040 next year, with the young adventurer segmentation targeting professionals, which of course filled with such dynamic designs.

Inspired by the concept of Mercedes-Benz F400, CSV is a very radical. Look at all four wheels, which even makes us wonder where is located the rubber round it.

Designers also wanted to give a sense of organic vehicles, so that the muscle fibers that flanked each side of the car, pinned neatly slipped into a hidden frame system.

The result is a design that takes the true adventurer DNA from a Mercedes-Benz evolution into an organic thing that could sped on the highway.

2010 LOTUS Car
MID I6 CONCEPT CAR LOTUS EUROPA 2010

This is the concept of South African designer Idries Noah Lotus Europa I6 that looks a bit like the Elise / Exige.
Europa I6 concept study is mid-engined, rear wheel drive sports car inspiration in design by the classic Europa and Elite as well as by Lotus model. Independent designer supports that ideally, the Europa I6 will weigh approximately 2030 pounds (920 kg) with power derived from the supercharged 2.0-liter inline six cylinder engines.
In theory, he said that the sports car will run from zero to 100 km / h (62mph) in 7 seconds and a top speed of 165 mph or 265 km / h. Apart from the theoretical technical specifications, Idries' take a compact mid-engined coupe hits Lotus sports in place. Unfortunately, he is only in the digital world.
I really liked the old classic Europa with the high rear. That is character. The newest version looks very similar to the Elise / Exige, Europa is not enough. I decided to take my own. Inspired by classic Lotus cars, Europa and Elite. Also take a moment to consider this trend Lotus. This is called the 2010 Europa I6.

REVIEW: Driven: 2010 Ferrari California

2010 Ferrari California
REVIEW: Driven: 2010 Ferrari California

Through a coincidence in time or just luck, I was lucky enough
California is full of firsts: the first-ever front-mounted V-8-engined Ferrari, this is the first use of direct injection in the Ferrari, and Ferrari's first dual-clutch automated manual transmission. This was also the first Ferrari built on modular architecture, and the first built on the new production line really scary in modernity. I can tour the facility last month, and the California production line is clean, quiet, and freakishly automatic. On the one hand, computerized, mass production just makes California somehow, seem less special; on the other hand, this ensures the highest quality level. I think the tradeoff is worth it, especially for the Ferrari which is inherently less special than the others.

Screeeetch - less special? I mean no insult by that of California. That's the most expensive in the Ferrari offers a stable, but that's only part of the reason why. Another reason is that I equate "special" with "crazy." I, automotive certified lunatic, worship F430 to madness. I like the way crackles and barks and screams. I love how the little children fear and adults with an acoustic attack; how accelerated and shift with such violence that makes the hysterical passenger. I like how the residents feel under attack by every pebble on the road after their appeal with the sights and smells of the world's best material.

Some, however, might find F430 slightly more. For these people, Ferrari makes California. California is softer, lighter, less crazy Ferrari. Ergo, it is less specific for crazy people like me, but no less specialized in the real world. A grand tourer in the traditional sense of the word, Ferrari's hard-top convertible soft and luxurious. The level of his voice and a quiet ride by Ferrari standards, and the cabin is elegant and luxurious.
