10 new Nissan models in India by 2016


CVT variants of the Micra, Sunny in the pipeline and a compact SUV too.


Japanese carmaker Nissan has revealed its future game plan for the Indian market. The company announced plans to launch around 10 new offerings here by 2016. 

First up will be the Micra CVT which will come with the same petrol motor that powers the manual variant. The X-Tronic CVT gearbox will do duty instead of the five-speed manual transmission. The Micra CVT will compete with the likes of the Ritz automatic and Brio automatic. 
 
Next in line will be a version of the Sunny equipped with the X-Tronic CVT gearbox. Expect Nissan to price the Sunny CVT below the badge-engineered Scala CVT. When launched, it is likely to compete with the likes of clutchless versions of the Vento, Rapid, Verna and the City. 
 
The third offering from Nissan will be for the compact SUV segment. This will be Nissan’s spin on the Renault Duster. However, the new SUV (Codename: NH87) will be more than just a re-badged Duster and will have some significant sheet metal changes as well. As seen from the brand hierarchy, we can expect Nissan to price the NH87 below the Duster. It is expected to enter showrooms end of 2013. 
 
Nissan will bring the low-cost Datsun Brand to India in 2014. Autocar India was the first to break the news about Datsun’s comeback in the June 2011 issue. For India, two Datsun hatchbacks are planned, both of which will slot below the Nissan Micra. The first model will be a Rs 4 lakh hatchback (code: K2) based on the two-generations old K11 Nissan Micra. Believed to incredibly spacious for its size, the K2 will feature an all-new ‘top hat’ and will come with a 1.0-litre petrol engine. A cheaper Rs 3 lakh model (code: I2) is also being developed to compete with the Maruti Alto.  
 
Nissan is looking to achieve 10 percent growth by 2016 in India. To achieve this target, the company also plans to increase its on-ground presence to 300 dealers from the current 95 in the country. 
 
Given that the current manufacturing facility of Renault Nissan Automotive India Pvt Ltd (RNAIPL) at Oragadam, Chennai, has an annual capacity of 400,000 cars and is shared by both Nissan Motor Company and Renault India, it is likely that the Japanese carmaker will either ramp up capacity at the existing facility or establish a new facility to meet its target by 2016.

2014 VW GTI Packs 227 Horsepower With the New Performance Pack


VW is bringing its all-new seventh-generation Golf to the 2012 Paris Motor Show this week. Weve already seen the standard Golf model, but this week VW is unveiling the Golf BlueMotion and the iconic 2014 GTI.

The 2014 Golf GTI is powered by a 2.0L with 217 horsepower and 258 lb-ft. of torque. The Golf GTI reaches 0-62 mph in 6.6 seconds and has a top speed of 153 mph. For the first time ever, the GTI will be available with a new performance pack that bumps the GTIs power up to 227 horsepower and gives it a 0-62 mph time of 6.5 seconds and a top speed of 155 mph. The perfomrance package also adds larger front brakes and a front axle differential lock which reduces power-related understeer.

Both GTI versions will be equipped with a standard Stop/Start system, and fulfil the EU-6 emissions standard that takes effect in 2014. With a six-speed manual gearbox, the GTI is set to return 47.1* mpg (an 18 per cent improvement over the Mk VI). A six-speed DSG gearbox is available as an option for both power levels.

Both GTI models also get a standard from a variable ratio steering system which, in essence, allows the driver toturn the car through a desired radius with smaller movements of the steering wheel. While conventional steering systems work with a fixed ratio, the new Golf GTI operates with a variable steering ratio which reduces steering input. On twisting country roads, the driver experiences a benefit in dynamics due to the more direct layout.

The 2014 GTI is distinguished by its red brake calipers, honeycomb grille with double red stripe detail, smoked LED rear lights and LED license plate illumination and chrome 80 mm diameter tailpipes. Inside the GTI gets tartan sports seats, a flat bottomed steering wheel, GTI golf ball gear knob and GTI-specific red ambience lighting.

The new Golf GTI is set to go on sale in mainland Europe in early 2013 and the UK in summer 2013. Its expected to reach the U.S. by the end of 2013.

The competition has grown and the great references, among which is the Party, have had to be updated continuously to keep the bar high. After a good model remodeling that occurred last year, now there is another change to the Party, to continue to evolve and be more modern.

Different manufacturers from around the world are preparing to present models in the upcoming Paris Motor Show, to be held later this month of September. Ford longer officially moving parts and has one of its models that will be present will be the new Fiesta, with significant aesthetic changes and new additions in the economic section. Jumps and the first details of the model, to start lifting expectation. Ford aims to keep convincing in our territory, despite having very strong rivals like the Seat Leon himself.

The U.S. manufacturer has seen the crisis, has been affected in our continent and saved to be one of the major figures in the United States, especially by making its popular trucks, particularly popular in North America.

New image abroad
the next generation Ford Fiesta, acquire dimensions very similar to those now found in the current model. However, some of the external features have been modified to consolidate a new era for the model. Certainly one of the points that can call attention is the new front grille, reminiscent of those found in the Aston Martin sports.

Inside there will be changes while not as radical, following a little with the modern trend. It will consist of technologically advanced components to ensure good driving pleasure.
Moreover, we also find a new line of engines, which are postulated increasingly more efficient, with good performance, while maintaining respect for the environment. Different versions for the new range will determine the level of sportsmanship and own buyer may choose the option that best suits your needs or preferences.

At the Paris Motor Show is expected that the new Ford Fiesta is one of the big stars. It is true that you can not put up any supercar that will be present, and the fans who raise them are unequaled. Anyway we must recognize that although we like, most of us feel we can not afford and more attracted to more modest models like the Fiesta.

New Car JNH Porsche GT3 996


JNH Porsche GT3 996 Picture 01
New company J.N.Hephaiss have released details of this PIG UGLY kit for those wanting to devalue their Porsche 996 GT3.  (J.N.Hephaiss Press Release) Our very first model is the Porsche GT3 (Type 996), one of the top performance cars on the public road among naturally-aspirated engine cars. With power performance and instant acceleration that tops 300km/h, sharp handling and gear sound, it’s completely different from standard Carrera.
Humble appearance and exhaust sound of GT3, which we find a little disappointing for such a prestige car, are the main reason why we went into the lab for a year to create the extreme Porsche. The final product, aggressive yet not vulgar and so fitting of its power, adds am impact to its slender body of GT3. At the same time, it exceeds the functionality of the original car in terms of aerodynamics and cooling effect.
