Hyundai Equus express affordable luxury

The system is equipped with seat comfort with automatic massage can be arranged in 12 moves plus dual automatic temperature control. Part of the back of his head now designed more comfortable. While the rear seat was equipped with a softer pad.

Equus 2011 that were previously equipped with a 4.6 liter V8 engine that can power up to 385 hp spark seems still not enough to satisfy fans of the luxury car lovers of speed. Hyundai refers to the 5.0-liter V8 engine took over.

A slightly larger engine is capable of producing 429 hp up to touch the scales at 6400 rpm, while cycling power reaches 510 Nm at 5000 rpm.

Although the strength increased by 44 horsepower, fuel consumption increased only slightly. According to estimates by EPA standards, these vehicles consume fuel at a dose of 6.38 km / liter in the city and 9.79 / liter on the highway, or just 0.42 km / liter is more wasteful than previous machines thanks to the use of new advanced transmission .

With terdongkraknya engine capabilities, of course it is faster than the 2011 Equus machine, but unfortunately, that ability is not matched by changes in the steering system and suspension is too soft even when set to sport mode.

With his new machine, it would be difficult to find reasons to fight the Hyundai Equus. The competitors' like The Lexus LS460, BMW 750i and Audi A8 priced thousands of dollars more expensive on the Equus. In other words, you can enjoy the luxury without having to break up a savings account when buying a luxury European cars are more expensive.

technology of 'Cylinder on Demand "(COD)'s used at first time

Audi is the first time using this technology of 'Cylinder on Demand "(COD) is the Audi S6, S6 Avant S7 Sportback and S8 2012 are equipped with 4.0 TFSI engine. Audi is now applying to the COD 4 engine cylinder 1.4-liter TFSI found in the Audi A1 is capable of producing 138 hp and 250 Nm of torque.

Audi A1 This powerful engine is able to record the fuel consumption with a dose of 24.4 km / liter with CO2 emissions of 109 g / km. Compare this with the 1.4 liter TFSI engine with no COD gives 18.8 km / liter with CO2 emissions of 122 g / km.

This technology serves to disable two of the four cylinders when the vehicle does not require a large force. You do this by closing the intake valves and exhaust in the cylinder to the second and third shift through additional mechanical camshaft (cam shaft) so that the valves do not lift (open).

Before this happens in a cylindrical combustion chamber is filled with fresh air, while the fuel injection and ignition is turned off. As a result only the cylinder number one and number four are working to give power, making it more efficient.

When the system reads the changing circumstances that require additional driving power of the engine, then the COD will automatically disengage the four-cylinder that will work simultaneously.

COD is ready to work all the time, and Audi has developed a control logic that monitors driving conditions and behavior. When driving conditions is true, the system will notify the COD has been active through the indicator lights are on intrument cluster.

COD will disengage automatically if driving conditions change either when the driver hit the gas pedal and brake pedal. The transition process took place very smoothly and it only takes one round of the camshaft.

AUDI has released the secret of the fuel-saving technology that is named by 'Cylinder on Demand "(COD) on YouTube, which illustrates how the valve control system plays a major role in these technologies.
