It’s a car, it’s a plane…it’s both?

The Terrafugia Transition, a light aircraft that can convert into an automobile, will soon go into production, according to Britain’s Telegraph.

The vehicle received a unique exemption from the U.S. government, which allows the production models to be 110 pounds heavier than a normal “light sport aircraft.”

Manufacturers could not fit in safety features, like airbags and crumple zones, within the 1,320 pound weight limit.

The exemption will make it easier and cheaper to get a license--A U.S. light sport pilot’s permit only requires 20 hours of flying time.

The two-seater vehicle uses its front-wheel drive on roads at ordinary highway speeds. But once it arrives at an adequate take off spot, it can extend its wings, take off and glide through the sky at 115 mph.

The vehicle can go 460 miles and carry 450 pounds, but requires a runway that is at least a third of a mile long. It fits into a standard-sized garage.

The Transition has undergone development by startup firm Terrafugia, which was founded by MIT engineers in 2006.

According to the company, 70 people have order the Transition and have left a $10,000 deposit per vehicle. It is expected to retail for $194,000 and be delivered by the end of next year.

Terrafugia said one of the major perks of the Transition is that it can drive home if the vehicle is flying and encounters bad weather.

Henry Ford Invents the Automobile

Being one of the most significant inventions of the 1920s, the automobile drastically changed the lives of Americans for the better. It not only improved transportation (obviously), it also gave the economy the boost it needed to provide America with the age of prosperity that the 20s is known for.

The first automobile developed with a combustion engine was invented by Henry Ford who later founded the Ford Motor Company, which was known for its achievements in bringing America its first affordable car, the Model-T. However, the first automobile was created much earlier, in 1866 by Richard Dudgeon of New York City who developed it with a steam engine.

The Effect of the Car on America

By 1927, the Model T had really taken off

Over the first few years of the 1920s, the automobile became a hit with everyone, especially young people who wanted freedom and excitement. Soon virtually every household in America owned an automobile, and it quickly became an integrated part of American life. Parents would drive to work in their automobiles. Families could visit friends and family who lived farther away. And young people found a whole new way to have fun.

Affecting not only American culture during the 1920s, the automobile also helped American industries. The sharp demand for automobile sparked the creation of a whole new industry in the 20s, the automobile industry. Ford had to provide for his clients somehow, so he expanded his factories, creating more jobs, more revenues, and improving the American economy in virtually every way. Automobiles that drove around a lot found it hard to drive on the poor dirt roads that were common back then, and they required a lot of fuel to run also. So nation wide road construction took place, which created even more jobs, and strengthened the economy even further.

As a result of the automobile, Americans and America itself benefitted greatly from the advantages it brought to them. Improved transportation and an improved economy made the automobile one of the most important inventions of the 1920s.

The Programme Will Include Incentives for New and Existing Customers of Opel – The US Carmaker’s European Brand

GM drive to restore Opel’s image

General Motors will next month launch a campaign to try to restore confidence in its European Opel brand, which was damaged during the lengthy talks with governments and workers about restructuring and state aid.

The programme will include incentives for new and existing customers of Opel – the US carmaker’s European brand that trades in the UK as Vauxhall – and focus on Germany, where it has its headquarters and where the brand’s image has suffered the most.

Nick Reilly, president of GM Europe, told the Financial Times on Friday: “We have to get more people putting Opel on their consideration list, particularly in Germany, but everywhere.”

He said that GM was planning a “confidence campaign” aimed at bringing buyers back to the brand from next month, but declined to give details as he did not want to make them known to competitors.

A person briefed on GM’s plans, who asked not to be named, said the measures would include a “loyalty bonus” for customers who traded in their old Opel for a new one. The incentive for some models could be as high as Germany’s former state-sponsored scrappage incentive, which awarded drivers €2,500 ($3,092).

A second person familiar with GM’s campaign said that, in addition to the loyalty incentive, it would include concessions on pricing and servicing of cars aimed at bringing customers back into showrooms.

GM this week said it was withdrawing applications to several European governments for up to €1.8bn of loans or guarantees for its €3.3bn plan to restructure Opel.

The move came amid an improvement in GM’s financial health and followed a year-and-a-half of tortuous deliberations that generated negative publicity for the carmaker – especially in Germany, where anxiety was highest about Opel’s job cuts and ability to remain solvent.

Jaap Timmer, president of Euroda, Opel’s European dealership association,, said: “Some customers were still in doubt if Opel would survive.” He declined to comment on GM’s upcoming campaign. “It is very important to regain the confidence of customers now.”

Mr Reilly said that GM’s market research showed that the difficulties Opel had gone through was “top of mind” in Germany, but less so in other European countries.

The controversy has had very little impact on Vauxhall’s image in the UK, for example.

Opel and Vauxhall controlled a 6.9 per cent share of the European car market in May, down from 7.8 per cent a year ago, according to the carmakers’ association Acea.

Analysts said GM faced a tough market this year because of its heavy reliance on Germany and the UK, which together account for about a half of its sales. In both countries, scrappage programmes that last year boosted sales of Opel’s small cars have ended.

GM also faces intense competition in Europe from other mass-market carmakers, including Ford Motor, Hyundai, Toyota, and PSA Peugeot-Citroën. Unlike them, Opel has no significant presence in faster-growing emerging markets such as China and Brazil.

“There has been increased competition in the group that we call non-premiums, especially from the Japanese and the Koreans,” said Jonathon Poskitt, a forecaster with JD Power, the consultancy. “That has hit Opel’s market share in the region.”

In Opel’s favour, it is hitting a stronger period in its model cycle with the launch of models like its new Astra, which accounts for about a third of its sales.

Opel aims to claw back business with an ambitious model ramp-up that will see 80 per cent of its fleet replaced by 2012 and €11bn invested by 2014.

“It will take some time, but I am very confident that we can regain market share,” said Mr Timmer.

Opel’s dealers are placing hope on a new small car due out next year.

Imelda Labbé, Opel’s new German head of sales, presented the first pictures of the minicar at a dealers’ meeting this week, a person who attended it told the FT.

The model, with the working title Opel City, will be a small car targeting younger people and meant to rival Fiat’s 500 and BMW’s Mini small cars.

Dealers expect the car to reach showrooms by the end of 2011.

Analysts said that one of Opel’s biggest challenges would be to catch up with rivals in small-car technology, especially in the small diesel and three-cylinder engines popular in Europe.

“Volkswagen with its model line-up and Fiat with its engine technology performed magically in recent years,” said Christoph Strümer, analyst at IHS Global Insight. “It will take a lot of effort for Opel to make up ground.”

Mr Reilly said that Opel’s forthcoming campaign would include information on its new technology, including electric vehicles.

He said that in addition to the brand’s Ampera battery-powered model due out next year, it planned to launch another two or three electric cars in coming years.

Based Automobile Manufacturer Has Unveiled a New-Generation, 2011

SEAT the Spain –based automobile manufacturer has unveiled a new-generation, 2011 SEAT Alhambra. Shaped with more elegance, athleticism and flexibility than ever, the new large MPV from Seat offers surprisingly dynamic driving experience, powerful drivelines ranging from 140 to 200 horsepower and the latest hi-techtecnology innovations.

Seducing its customers with amazing levels of average fuel consumption – just 5.5 litres -, the 2011 Alhambra undoubtedly tops its segment’s efficiency chart.

James Muir, President of SEAT, S.A. shares: “Innovation and intelligence are the keywords for our new Alhambra. It represents a major step forward in terms of usability as well as dynamics and safety. Its impressive concept combines the highest levels of functionality and state-of-the-art technology with excellent quality and workmanship. This also includes – in typical SEAT fashion – exceptional good value-for-money.”

With new dimensions – 22 centimetres longer and 9 centimeters wider – , the new-generation Seat Alhambra represents the perfect size for a European MPV. It packs ultra-spacious luggage compartment, which boasts 885 litres base volume with five seats occupied and the amazing 2,297 litres if only the front two seats are in use.

Under the well-shaped, flexible, new-generation MPV, Seat offers a power units line-up, where all TSI and TDI engines are fitted with direct fuel injection and turbochargers. The TSI engines produce 150 horsepower (110 kW) and 200 horsepower (147 kW), while the two TDI engines offer 140 horsepower (103 kW) and 170 horsepower (125 kW). Further efficiency technologies fitted as standard include the stop/start system and brake energy regeneration – the recovery of kinetic energy. These features guarantee enhanced pulling power alongside exceptional efficiency. With an average fuel consumption of only 5.5 litres and CO2 emissions of just 143 g/km, the SEAT Alhambra 2.0 TDI with 140 horsepower (103 kW) sets a clear benchmark in this vehicle class. The Alhambra TDI is also equipped with an SCR catalytic converter (Selective Catalytic Reduction), making even the diesel model one of the world’s cleanest MPVs.

Skoda Automobiles is a Advanced Technology

More self-confident than ever before

A timeless design, advanced technology, plenty of room for passengers and luggage, outstanding drive properties and excellent value for money. Benefits which have so far attracted over two million customers worldwide make the Octavia amongst the most successful models of the Škoda range.

The design of the C with its timeless elegance shows that it is a member of the Škoda family and the Octavia range, with more dynamism and informal charm added. The appearance is now more sophisticated, the lines have become more elegant and the front and rear of the vehicle have been redesigned.



We abide by the motto of the founders of the car manufacturer: “Only the best for our clients”. Which is why your satisfaction with a Škoda car is our success.


Perfect fusion of technology and design

The new features and layout of the interior emphasise even more the feeling of comfort and safety. The Octavia now offers a completely new generation of three and four-spoke steering wheels, radio and navigation systems, available throughout the model range.

The instrument panel is a great example of progressive, elegant design, well arranged with soft, touch-friendly surfaces. White LED illumination provides an elegant contrast against the black instrument panel while the traditional green under-lighting of the rest of the electronic components creates a sound combination which does not act as a disturbance when driving.

The new materials and colours of the seats and the lining of the door panels correspond to the most modern trends, as do the new decors of the instrument panel for each of the trim levels.

Advanced technology
The technology featured in the new Octavia is amongst the most advanced found in modern cars. The new Octavia is available with five petrol and three diesel engines, and a range of manual and automatic gearboxes.

This includes a revolutionary DSG 7° automatic transmission system, specially developed for the 1.2 TSI/77 kW (105 bhp), 1.4 TSI/90 kW (122 bhp) and 1.8 TSI/118 kW (160 bhp) engines.

The new Octavia’s engine displacements and outputs cover a wide range, meeting the needs of every customer. Petrol engines range from the 1.4 MPI/59 kW (80 bhp) to the top class 2.0 TSI with an output of 147 kW (200 bhp). The Octavia’s diesel offering includes the choice of two turbo engines with an output of 77 (105 bhp) and one with 103 kW (140 bhp), or a common rail fuel injected two-litre turbo-diesel with an output of 125 kW (170 bhp).

Take Things Further

Those who know who they are can take things further. Set long-range goals, take the first step, trust their instincts, and tap into the knowledge of lessons learned in the past. Those who know who they are can go beyond – and remain true to their essence.

With the SEAT Exeo we dared to push our own boundaries, and take the first step in a new direction: We fused the distinct SEAT spirit with premium quality, the most advanced technology, outstanding dynamism and subtle sportiness in an exceptionally refined car. That way we have steered ourselves into a segment that is new to us. With the aim to create a league of our own. We are looking forward to our journey.

The automotive industry in Japan

History

1960s to today

During the 1960s, Japanese automakers launched a bevy of new kei cars in their domestic market. These tiny automobiles usually featured very small engines (from 360cc to 600cc) to keep taxes much lower than larger cars. The average person in Japan was now able to afford an automobile, which boosted sales dramatically and jumpstarted the auto industry toward becoming what it is today. The first of this new era, actually launched in 1958, was the Subaru 360. It was known as the "Lady Beetle", comparing its significance to the Volkswagen Beetle in Germany. Other significant models were the Suzuki Fronte, Mitsubishi 500, Mazda Carol, and the Honda N360.

Rapidly increasing domestic demand and the expansion of Japanese car companies into foreign markets in the 1970s further accelerated growth. Automobile production in Japan continued to increase rapidly after the 1970s, as Mitsubishi (as Dodge vehicles) and Honda began selling their vehicles in the US. Even more brands came to America and abroad during the 1970s, and by the 1980s, the Japanese manufacturers were gaining a major foothold in the US and world markets.

With Japanese manufacturers producing very affordable, reliable, and popular cars throughout the 1990s, Japan became the largest car producing nation in the world in 2000. However, its market share has decreased slightly in recent years, particularly due to old and new competition from South Korea, China and India. Nevertheless, Japan's car industry continues to flourish, its market share has risen again, and in the first quarter of 2008 Toyota surpassed American General Motors to become the world's largest car manufacturer. [2]. Today, Japan is the third largest automobile market and, until China recently overtook them as the largest car producer in the world. Still, automobile export remains one of the country's most profitable exports and is a cornerstone of recovery plan for the latest economic crisis.

The Latest Technology For The Reason

The automakers are cautious whether to jump onto the latest technology for the reason that one blunder might hinder their emergent goodwill. Moreover, they are looking forward for the adoption and mainstreaming of the most viable technological innovation in the present time. New car technologies include the Bluetooth, iPod integration, hybrids, hard top, powerful and fuel-efficient engines and more. Further, ergonomics and safety are improved by air bags and more.

Volvo and BMW auto parts were given powerful and highly beneficial systems. Volvo, for one, has integrated the BLIS system, short for Blindspot Information System. The latter utilizes camera in the outer mirrors for the driver to discover other vehicles entering the blind spots. The small blinking light further alerts the driver when it is not safe to change lanes. BMW, on the other hand, uses a night vision system with a thermal imaging camera to detect individuals, animals and inanimate objects. The heat readings of said system show bright hues. It also uses advanced infrared technology hence the system can read the road to as far as about 1,000 feet in front of the car without barriers on the headlights.

In regard to diesel developments, Mercedes-Benz has developed a system called BLUETEC. It processes exhaust transmission to burn cleaner and produce lesser emissions. The vehicles with BLUETEC system will be available in 45 states.

Parenthetically, Toyota parts made a climactic triumph when high-end hybrid engines were made part of the Toyota clan. These engines were incorporated in RX SUV, Prius and GS sports sedan. Lexus will also sell LS 600h L. Said vehicle is said to be the 'most technologically advanced' from the automaker.

Other groundbreaking technologies include MyGIG multimedia system from Dodgem Jeep and Chrysler. The system has a built-in 20-gigabyte hard drive which can store both photos and music. High-speed USB port, voice-guided navigation and real time traffic information were also incorporated to create most functional vehicles.

Just over a century ago, steamships, canals, railroads, and the telegraph were up and running. They were the technological marvels of the 19th century, setting the stage for the 20th century. Yet the invention that would spark a revolution in transportation was a simple two-wheeler - the bicycle. Its popularity in the 1880s and 1890s spurred interest in the nation's roads. However, it was the car that was destined to dominate the new roads.
