Feeling the previlege of Ford's new trademark with the technology package

Find your automotive passion and Feeling the previlege of Ford's new trademark with the technology package to your daily life.

EcoBoost is Ford's new trademark with the technology package consists of a Direct Injection , Turbocharger and Ti - VCT ( open-close and high-lift valve which can vary ) ! With the package , engine performance can be improved . For example, the 1.0 -liter EcoBoost engine capability together with a non - EcoBoost 1.6 liter ( non- turbo , using the injection port or indirectly ) .

Ford EcoBoost engine package consisting of various capacities , including a 1.0 -liter ( 3 - cylinder ) , 1.6 liter and 2.0 liter ( 4 cylinder ) and the largest is the 3.5 -liter , V6 . This strategy was chosen before heading to Ford for hybrid cars with more expensive and complicated technology . In this way , the price of the car is sold to the consumer will be more affordable but relatively more efficient and carbon dioxide ( CO2 ) is low .

EcoBoost is actually the same as the strategy that has been done by other brands , such as Mazda with SKYACTIV , with EfficientDynamics BMW , Mercedes - Benz BlueEFFICIENCY through and by the VW BlueMotion .

3 cylinders
Engine with direct injection system , turbocharger , for the 1.0-liter 3-cylinder is no longer a new technology in the automotive realm . The combination of direct injection engine plus turbocharger has been used by the German cars sold in Indonesia , among others, BMW and Mercedes - Benz , Audi and VW . Japanese brands are also there which use direct injection , which is Mazda Skyactiv technology package . Most brands , Japan , such as Toyota and Honda also uses direct injection technology !

For the 3 - cylinder , already used by the cheapest car ( LCGC ) in Indonesia , namely Toyota and Daihatsu Agya Ayla . The difference, yet without using direct injection and a turbocharger . Even Daihatsu 3-cylinder engine has been using since the 1980s in Indonesia .

vibration
3 cylinder engine , the vibrations louder than the 4 -cylinder . Because the imbalance due to an odd number of pistons at work . The first two cylinders can be balanced , but one cylinder again myself ! This can lead to an imbalance and vibration !

To eliminate vibration , mechanical engineers install ballast weights or " counter balance / weight" . But Ford said , do not choose this way . The reason , ballast weights will increase the weight of the machine . Ford let alone , however, makes flywheel or clutch with a special design ( given reducer ) and use -in - oil belt drive . In this way , Ford claims , 3 cylinder engine vibration was not until " mengoncang " car and its passengers .

Number of Components
With a three- cylinder , Ford expects the number of components used less, while reducing the inter - component machines . The reason this is unacceptable! DOHC 4 - valve per cylinder , 16 valve has confirmed ( also had 16 per ) , the trigger valve ( rocker arm ) , 16 nok ( cam ) , 4 piston with rings , 4 piston , crankshaft journals 4 .

Compare this with the 3 -cylinder engine , it only took 12 valves . 12 trigger , 3 - piston and ring , 3 and 3 piston crankshaft journal . As the number of components is reduced , so the engine is lighter . So is friction between components . This concept is only used for the 1.0 -liter engine , while the 1.6 -liter , 4 -cylinder fixed !

Direct injection
Now this is the transition of technology from an indirect injection system or port injection ( PI ) system to direct injection ( DI ) . Ford also call this direct injection with Spark Ignition Direct Injection ( SIDI ) . While other brands call it Gasoline Direct Injection ( GDI ) .

At PI , injectors mounted near the suction or suction valve hole . Thus , no gasoline is sprayed directly into the combustion chamber or cylinder . As a result , the possibility of gasoline evaporates or is not 100 percent up to the combustion chamber , very large . While the DI injector is in the combustion chamber .

Gasoline is sprayed directly into the combustion chamber , such as a diesel engine ( piston head is made hollow as the combustion chamber ) . For this , a very high -pressure injector should ( because the pressure inside the engine too high ) . Injektornyan also very sophisticated ( now using piezoelekttrik ) who worked very precise . While the resulting pressure fuel pump can reach 200 bar or 2,900 psi . Well , as a comparison , or PI indirect injection , fuel pump pressure 85 psi highest .

With the high pressure , the resulting fog better ! The opening is also more apt to occur . The amount of gasoline that is sprayed can be reduced ( thin ) remains the optimal burning . Also the fuel is sprayed can be determined based on the needs engine number . For example , to generate torque in the rev range 1400-4500 rpm .

With DI and turbo , petrol can match the performance of a diesel engine at low speed ( generating greater torque ) and maintain it until the round was . With this addition , the turbo can be quickly activated . In PI , the turbo started working at 2,500 rpm so often happens " turbo lag " ( the same as the carburetor ) .

Even now , with the direct injection system , the engineers have managed to make gasoline engines without having to use a spark plug to produce combustion . Now , the air is compressed until the pressure is coupled with the hot exhaust gases , then sprayed gasoline , direct combustion . Same with the workings of a diesel engine which produces work more efficiently .

turbo-
Turbo is a tool to suck in outside air at once forced her into mesin.Untuk operate turbo , exhaust gases utilized generated by the engine . So the new turbo works after the engine exhaust gas with high enough pressure .

Kalaumesin only use suction power when the piston moves to the bottom dead center ( BDC ) , the amount of air to the combustion chamber is limited because it faces many hurdles . Well , when air is sucked from the outside , then forced into the gasoline , the number or density will be more ( solid ) .

With more density ( solid ) , fuel can also be sprayed more . Combustion will mengahsilkan greater heat energy . If you have this , so the car accelerates faster , no need to press the gas pedal deeper . Few had gained more power more efficiently alias .

Actually there are other factors that determine the outcome of better combustion or optimal , ie the resulting sparks plugs ( including the condition and quality of spark plugs ) and fuel quality ( octane rating ) .

octane
Fuel quality is often associated with an octane rating or Reswearch Octan ( RON. Actually , octane ( used to use lead atgau lead ) , his duty to prevent gasoline burn faster . Higher the RON , the more difficult to burn gasoline . Lho ?

When flammable gas would be very detrimental . For example , when the piston reaches top dead point yet ( TDC on the compression stroke ) , gasoline burns himself because the surrounding temperature has reached the point of combustion . These conditions there is a mention seb agai pre - ignition or premature ignition . There is also when autoignition ( ignition occurs alone ) . Precisely , ignition or combustion occurs before the spark plugs fire flower !

Consequently , should the piston toward the TMA , TMB may be pushed back due to premature ignition or combustion . Because of pressure or explosion resulting very large , large ( spontaneous and uncontrolled ) , can damage the piston and valve ( part closest ) .

The best ignition timing , occurs a few degrees before the piston reaches TDC ( depending on compression ratio ) . The closer to the TDC of course better because it will be more efficient combustion . But this is necessary for higher octane .

Gasoline engine with direct injection can now work with a compression ratio of 14,7:1 ( petrol Skyactiv Mazda ) . But the fuel quality is not the same in every country , usually adjusted again , generally lower .

In fact , for engines equipped with turbochargers , must be lowered again ( because of the air pressure in the higher engine ) . For the 1.0 -liter EcoBoost engine , according to Robert Sharpless , Manager Poweretrain Control , Calibration and NVH for Ford Asia Pacific , because it has a turbo , a compression ratio of 10 : 1 .

Super Voxan Wattman's the new electric motorcycle from French

Paris  - French Company , Voxan , launched a new electric motorcycle in the Salon de la Motor Show , Paris , Monday ( 02/12/2013 ) . Since the electric motor is used to produce power 200 PS and 200.3 Nm of torque - motorcycle Voxan Wattman named - claimed to be the most powerful in the world . Further, this motorcycle was designed in Monaco .

It is said , can be accelerated Wattman 170 kph and accelerating from rest to 100 kph just 3.4 seconds ! Very impressive , considering the weight to 350 kg , the majority comes from lithium- ion battery 12.8 kWh . Since the battery is a lot of that, this motorcycle can travel a distance of 180 km .

This most recent automotive technology could be the most influential this decade

New York , - It was born not for long and that's otonomos. This most recent automotive technology could be the most influential this decade

Almost all the world 's manufacturers are competing to develop otonomos technology , making the car can drive itself with sophisticated computers . Although such a dream , a number of business people judge the world , this technology can already commercialized in 2025 .

The ability of this technology to avoid accidents will reduce insurance costs are expensive . In addition , the consumption of fuel -efficient cars because otonomos can prevent undue acceleration . Congestion at intersections can also be reduced because each car can communicate with each other .

The elderly users who are physically incapable stated again will not lose the right to drive a car . Meanwhile , less experienced young people can be safe , protected and cheaper insurance .

" In 2025 , otonomos car marketed globally . ( The technology ) is able to create a personal mobility revolution , allowing people to old bekendara , economical fuel consumption , and reduce accidents to zero , " wrote HSBC in a report launched Inautonews ( 2 / 12/2013 ) .

impact
On the other hand , the presence of this technology is expected to have a devastating effect on the company's cab . Mass transportation such as trains , buses , and short-haul flights will be left . People prefer the road that leads directly from the house at that location because it is more convenient to use the car 's own.

Lodging industry will also be subject to " sap " . If someone can drive day and night to pursue an important meeting in another city , he does not have to stop at the inn to sleep . This technology makes the car can work without a break .

IT industry as a developer of applications , in-car entertainment systems , will acquire new markets . Meanwhile , the radio and music business will lose a loyal listener . The pace car on the highway sooner if the technology is proven to be safe and able to reduce accidents .

" This is not a toy . Economic and social impacts are very diverse . Beyond practical benefits , we predict large -scale otonomos car will save 1.3 trillion dollars to the U.S. economy . Globally , bigger savings up to 5.6 trillion U.S. dollars , "said Morgan Stanley , a global financial institution based in Manhattan , New York .

Furthermore , if the car 's computerized system is running well , it looks more and more people keep silence in the car parked on the street corner . They will use the computers in the cabin for browsing .

" Non - automotive industry to be affected in this case , namely telecommunications , software , media , public transportation , semi - conductor , and insurance , " added Morgan Stanley .

Institute researchers Forst & Sullivans added , almost all automotive principals develop this technology . Mercedes - Benz , one of the leading , followed by other German brands , BMW and Volkswagen . The Toyota by Lexus is also preparing the same technology . Ford did not miss . So also with Google , they prepare themselves as supporting industries , not automotive manufacturers . Moreover , there are IBM and Cisco , which prepares the computer infrastructure .

Seventy two Old person takes Toyota Prius hybrid car to travel all over the world

Nagoya -He is very old but strong and Seventy two Old person  takes Toyota Prius hybrid car to travel all over the world

 Who said only young people are feeling adventurous ? If you know the story of 72-year -old grandfather , the young people will be embarrassed . Yes , this man is Kiichiro Yokota , a man who was born in Tokyo in 1941 ago.

Yokota who was a photographer this is a guy who hooked adventure. His name is listed as the first Japanese person to follow Paris - Dakkar rally when they collide at the showground follow the most prestigious and most reli hard this in 1981.

Since then, a total of 12 years himself been active in class champion won twice.

Since 1999 , he rattle wheel by holding the ' Ecomission . However , he was not far away from the steering wheel. Because through this program Yokota want to spread the eco-friendly message to the world.

To that end, Toyota Prius hybrid car is selected. Total is more than 100,000 km journey he went through from crossing the United States , penetrate the Sahara to the Asia- Europe. He also is exploring South America and Australia .

" We must tell the world that we must take care with the environment , " he said from Nagoya .

When asked what is the car like the Prius beans with pungent odor urban car can face extreme bands such as the Sahara or lunge line of mountains , Yokota said it was not a problem.

" Anyone can go through it. But most of us should we change people's mindset , not adventure to harm the environment. Accordingly I use hybrid cars like the Prius ," he said .

newest concept model of the Ford Ka looks very amazing and energic

MICHIGAN - newest concept model of the Ford Ka will come in Europe at near times.

Manufacturing Ford seems more stable against one of its newest concept model of the Ford Ka. This is evidenced through his first amazing and energic appearance in an event.

Reported by Autocar, Friday (12/05/2013) has recently manufacturers from the United States featuring the Ford Ka in mainland Europe for the first time at an event in Spain.

In addition to having a bold design, called the Ford Ka has quality engineering and innovative technology. This car is touted to be the entry-level urban vehicle choices to consumers.

Ford will reveal the identity of the new five-door citycar early next year. The plan, a new Ford Ka will be marketed in the next two years after the production model is introduced.

Not much information about this compact bodied cars. But certainly, Ford SYNC features will be embedded in the car to support the comfort of passengers in terms of entertainment.

Australian Toyota factories follow General Motor

Sydney , - Finally two Australian Toyota factories follow  the factory of General Motor to close their production.

Toyota Motor Corporation will follow the lead of General Motors ( GM ) stopped production in Australia late 2017. This was conveyed by the Australian union representative , told Reuters on Wednesday ( 12/11/2013 ) .

Speculation is sticking out , just hours after announcing that production of GM Holden ( in Australia subsidiary ) closed . This decision is as following in the footsteps of Ford Motor Company which had already been doing the same thing , in May 2013 .

There are at least 2,900 workers at the two factories of GM , in South Australia and Victoria , in danger of losing jobs . The automotive industry in Australia continue to decline due to the strengthening of the Australian dollar exchange rate up to 50 percent against the U.S. dollar since 2009 to 2012 . Making your own export activity is not at all profitable for the principal .

Moreover , this situation also encourages imports more attractive because it can increase profit margins . With Holden 's keputsuan , then leaving Toyota the only brand which has a factory in the last kangaroo country .

" If you start putting deposits eggs in a little bag , then drop one of them , then you are in big trouble , " said Stephen Clibborn , Lecturer University of Sydney Business School , reported by Bloomberg ( 10/12/2013 ) .

If this condition persists, then it is possible that Toyota also will close its plant in Australia and tend to rely on  imports from neighboring countries ,
