Suzuki SX4-FCV, a Car Running with Hydrogen


Suzuki Motor Corp exhibited the SX4-FCV, a fuel cell vehicle based on its compact car "SX4," to the press and government officials at the Hokkaido Toyako Summit. Suzuki developed the Wagon R-FCV and the MR Wagon-FCV based on a compact car in 2003. In 2005, In 2005, the Suzuki Ionis hydrogen fuel cell vehicle was introduced at the Tokyo Motor Show. Then in October 2007, the Suzuki Crosscage hydrogen fuel cell motorcycle was unveiled, also in Tokyo and the announcement was made that British company Intelligent Energy was supplying the FC. hydrogen fuel cell motorcycle was unveiled, also in Tokyo and the announcement was made that British company Intelligent Energy was supplying the FC. But, this time, the company developed another fuel cell vehicle based on its compact car "SX4," which is equipped with either a 1.5- or 2.0-liter engine. The output of the fuel cell is increased from the Wagon R-FCV's 50 to 80kW, and the motor output is also boosted from 38 to 68kW. Two 70MPa high-pressure hydrogen tanks are sandwiched between the rear wheels. Due to the small tanks, the SX4-FCV has a travel distance of only 250km. The distance is rather short compared with that of other recent fuel cell vehicles. The SX4-FCV mounts the fuel cell and the motor in a small engine room at the front, which is unusual for a compact car. The vehicle also mounts a high-capacity capacitor for regenerated energy in the trunk. The capacitor takes up almost half the capacity of the trunk. Hydrogen storage tanks is developed by scientists of Suzuki. excellence design of Suzuki SX4-FCV from its compact is more incidental . There are also capacitors able to get back the energy lost while braking the car. Then, Energy is used to help fuel cells to accelerate when the car accelerated "rapidly". As the standard version, SX4-FCV can still be filled by five passengers. One tank filled of hydrogen can be used for a distance of 250 km. The top speed can be reached at 150 km / hour. After the exhibition show, Suzuki SX4-FCV will be on public streets in Japan. For the development of hydrogen fuel, Suzuki cooperates with General Motors since 2001. Spokesman tell that Suzuki try to make Suzuki SX4-FCV production as soon as possible. The Suzuki SX4 series production is in cooperation between Suzuki and Fiat in 2006. This type of car designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro of Italdesign studio. Suzuki SX4 was produced to replace the series of Aerio (for some place called Liana). In fact, the Suzuki SX4 is only in the series selling in Europe. But, in the development, the car is also sold in Japan, India, South America, Australia, South Africa, and North America. First car is introduced in the Geneva Motor Show 2008. For the SX4 series hatchback has produced at the first time since 2007. These series are introduced early in the New York Auto Show. This vehicle has been released in Japan, India, and several East European countries.

Antro Solo, a "Green Car" from Hungaria



As usual, automotive world is the world of German, America and Japan. At present,the news doesn't come from those nations, but it came from hongaria, a country that has no tradition in automotive side. The concept brought is about ”Green Car”.
Antro Solo, this future car name works with the mixture of diesel fuel energy, human and electric. not a new phenomenon really, but it offers something interesting enough, that is efficient fuel use, where one gallon of gasolin (1 gallon = 3,785 litre)s can pass through over up to 150 miles.
Built from carbon fiber, Antro Solo has only 270 kg weight. This little weight makes the use of fuel more efficience and more maximal. if usually hybrid vehicle is less of ability in the speed, Antro Solo can be relied on enough because it can run with speed up to 87 miles per hour or around 140 km/ hour.
Its roof is installed with sun panel to catch energy and keep it at a battery that can be used to run for about 15-25 km. if it run out of energy, reservist energy will be used. that is energy of manpower. under occupant seat is provided pedal to move engine generator. if the occupant feel tired and lazy to push the pedal, this car can still run by using oil fuel or ethanol.
produced massly in the year 2012, Antro Solo will be sold at the price of around 20.000.

Volkswagon Golf GTI, Modification "Sporty Flare in Black"


Love of art car modifying will become a fascination attractibility that will always give new concepts in modifying of car. This time, I will tell you my concept will hit car modification Volkswagon Golf GTI. This car belongs to elegant car style. It's difficult enough to modify it totally, but with a proportional modification, this car will be seen beautiful beside sporty and sure it doesn't leave elegant look in body kit, I choose lower body with elegant front spoiler with strips. The Front spoiler, I choose it because it give aerodinamics effect maximaly so that makes the Volkswagon to get the maximal speed. For hood, I choose a hood with Trident type . This type is very figure and good to be used by cars that want to change to be a sporty car . For rear body, I also permanently give elegant accent that same as the front body. Its strip body kit model looks really elegant and may be in most of the car that have big body look, strip model will like this even also be seen to be a car that keep elegant nuance . This thing can be tried you by yourself. Well, to present sporty look, I choose rim 20 inch. This rim is the O.Z. rim Superturrismo. Then, it is painted with black metalic color. By its appearance, this rim also add sporty nuance but also looks elegant because of its strip. The most important to promote sporty look in Volkswagon Golf GTI car that is in spoiler. I choose a tuner spoiler with Borra type . Borra type spoiler is purely gives accent of sporty. Most of modifiers avoid using spoiler in mini SUV like Volkswagon Golf GTI. Perhaps, they assume that the car is a big car and adding a spoiler will decrease its beauty. Perhaps, several type of spoiler installed in car cause ugly appearance, but you can see by yourself my modification concept looks pretty. NOTE: if you choose a spoiler for a car of mini suv like Volkswagon Golf GTI, so choose a low spoiler, don't too high because this car is tall car, so when augmenting with a tall spoiler, so the car will not looks pretty. besides, I add scoop roof on it with dual stream type. This scoop roof add sporty impression and its beauty. For visual, I choose black with a little flare decoration on both sides. This modification of Volkswagon Golf GTI, I name it "Sporty Flare in Black"
