Infiniti Emerg-E at Goodwood Festival of Speed

Infiniti Emerg-E revealed in Geneva Motor Show, last March 2012
After the first appereance in Geneva last march, finally the upscale of Nissan devision car, Infiniti Emerg-E makes its road debut for the first time at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.








Although the specification still the same with shown in Geneva, with two mid-mounted electric motors driving the rear wheels and a range-extending three-cylinder engine to keep the motors running when lithium-ion power runs out, the car offers up to 30 miles of emission-free driving and puts out 402 hp, making 0 to 60 mph in around 4 seconds and producing a top speed of 130mph. This Hybrid car was piloted by Red Bull Formula One driver Mark Webber.








One of the minor exterior changes that has a big impact for the latest version of the Infiniti Emerg-E, is addition of front and rear spoiler.








“We added the spoiler onto the cars because we needed to balance the front and rear lift of the car,” said Jerry Hardcastle (Vice President of Vehicle Design and Development for the Nissan Group Technology Centre Europe). “The spoiler was therefore specifically designed to be purely functional as opposed to being added just for design purposes."

The joint sports car between Subaru and Toyota showed off its 2.0L Horizontally-Opposed Boxer engine packing 200-hp and 151 lb-ft of torque with 17-inch wheels look fitting on the sports coupe, while the overall stance of the vehicle is definitely attractive to the eye.









Above is The First Subaru BRZ in Indonesia (according to newspaper & magazines), well for a high performance car, looks like BRZ focus an overall performance rather than power itself. With the ideal of weight distribution (54:46), BRZ is really stable on the road even when face to face with a tight angle.








On the cockpit, the smaller steering wheel is comfortable to hold and seems fitting for the coupe, while the seats were surprisingly more comfortable than we originally anticipated them to be.

McLaren MP4-12C Spider


British supercar-makers McLaren reveals its second model of MP4-12C series called 12C Spider. The supercar is powered by a 3.8 liter V8 twin turbo engine that will catapult you from 0-62 in just 3.1 seconds, with a top speed of 204mph.









Thanks to the implementation of this compact design, the engineers from McLaren have managed to keep the glass engine cover seen on the coupe version. The roof needs 17 seconds to go up or down and this can be done at speeds of up to 19 mph by the simple push of a button installed on the center console.








There is the inclusion of a rear glass windscreen that doubles as a wind deflector when the top is down. This glass partition can also be lowered when the roof is up which can allow the drivers ears direct access to the sounds of the force feed V8. A final amazing feat in engineering would have to be fact that the MP4-12C Spider only weights 88 pounds more than its fixed roof counterpart.











There's certainly plenty to love about the MP4-12C Spider, but if you like it enough to make it yours, you'll need to lose US$265,750 from your pockets in coming November 2012.
