the advantages and disadvantages of Hybrid engine


SANTA MONICA-Answer of the advantages and disadvantages of the two models of this machine is on Hybrida machine model. This model can take advantage of the myriad benefits that owned both. Hybrid engine will have an important role in the development of automotive history, as many as 40 to 50 percent of new car sales in 2040 will be dominated hybrid models.

"The potential for gasoline engines and its flexibility makes this model can not be compared with other energy sources. Gasoline was cheap and more compact in terms of volume, similar to nuclear material. Quite possible if the material will run out of gasoline in the face of the earth, then we will create it," said Engineering Edmunds.com editors, Jay Kavanagh.



prestige model with an internal combustion engine or internal combustion engines (ICE) as the gasoline engine will not be reduced in the near term. In fact, gasoline would still be a major force in the development of the automotive market in the decades to come.

Gasoline is still a need in the automotive world premiere, and the presence of gasoline-powered engine is actually not something alarming in the automotive industry.

Cars with electric engines will not predicted to affect the sales of the petrol engines in the years to come. Until now, only the electric engine to achieve sales of less than 0.09 percent of all new car market in the world. A study has also revealed that the data in 2040 all electric vehicle is only able to grab marketshare of less than one percent in sales.

Here are some points provided by Edmunds.com to show the advantages of the internal combustion engine (ICE).

ICE has a wider range. Reported when testing was conducted using the Tesla Model S electric car, need to charge the battery twice to reach 563 km. While an ordinary sedan, ICE, which has the same price can do so only by using a single fuel tank filled.

The biggest problem with electric cars is the time it takes to recharge. Tesla Model S fastest takes about half an hour to recharge the battery to 50 percent, whereas in a regular car just a few minutes until the fuel tank is filled.

ICE has growing potential. Although gasoline has been around since the first, but using them as efficiently as possible is a new thing. With some of the latest technology and automotive pabrilkan according to the Environmental Protection Agency, super efficient technology will grow 16 percent more efficient than now.

The environmental impact of electric cars is not yet clear. Electric cars are only as clean as the power generated to drive the propulsion of the vehicle. However, the effects of greenhouse gas emissions from the use of electric cars give 40 percent more severe impact than conventional cars.

More fundamentally is a matter of making the vehicle itself, the conventional engine cars will last longer, because electric cars use rare materials found on earth.

ABS Systems will be favourite and popular now and later


MICHIGAN-ABS Systems will be favourite and popular now and later. It's reasonable after we know the function of this secxure stuffs for vehicles.

According to an article in Popular Science and collected from Hagerty (19/04/13) Sure-Brake instrument on the Chrysler Imperial was tested and as a result tried to stop the car stable, even while driving on ice.

The article also said a 40 percent drop dramatically to stop the vehicle on a smooth surface, this certainly is a big advantage, the order on the computer can determine the friction surface using dekselerasi information, then generate appropriate braking pulse.



In the Imperial era, the sales of Chrysler's technological superiority mengumbar not because it appears braking pulses produce a squeaking sound can startle motorists with mischief in mind there braking system.

All manufacturers will love himself as the inventor of the first automotive tekonologi innovation in the world. Consequently applied similar features often a matter of debate among manufacturers call.

Easy enough to understand how to work a security feature that can save lives before this happened punches. ABS uses electronic systems mengemban duty to prevent or stop spinning wheel locking when braking sharply, the plus side is still relatively stable vehicle to be operated while the speed decreases dramatically.

Previously known by the name of ABS anti-skid brakes (brake anti-skid), first appeared on aircraft in late 1940, and finally present in the automotive world since 1950. One of the original German manufacturer says it has long been pinning electronic anti-skid technology brakes on all four wheels of vehicles, but it turns out the U.S. manufacturer was more used to have this technology.

Similar to ABS systems, features a Maxaret have adopted the British Jensen FF car in 1966, but completely still use mechanical systems. Ford introduced the first electronic mechanism Sure-Track anti-skid developed by Kelsey-Hayes in Thunderbird and Continental Mark III in 1969. Sure-Track system expressly applied only to the rear wheels.

Leading the birth of modern ABS braking system available at Sure-Brake 1971 Chrysler Imperial. Sure-Brake system is applied in order to prevent the locking of front tires when braking to help control panic time. Previous long claimed that Mercedes-Benz is the first inventor with Bosch ABS system on their car production in Europe in 1978.
