Model s electric car

Honed for Performance:-

  • Introducing a car so advanced it sets the new standard for premium performance. At the heart of the vehicle is the proven Tesla powertrain, delivering both unprecedented range and a thrilling drive experience.


  • With a rigid body structure, nearly 50/50 weight distribution and a remarkably low center of gravity, Model S offers the responsiveness and agility expected from the world’s best sports cars while providing the ride quality of a sedan. 














PLUG IN ANYWHERE:-

Model S comes standard with everything you need to plug into the most common 240-volt outlet, standard 120-volt wall outlets and public stations. Using a high-amperage 240-volt outlet, Model S can be recharged at the rate of 100 km range per hour. A fifty-percent charge in thirty minutes can be achieved with a Tesla Supercharger.
Ask Tesla owners how long it takes to charge and they'll say just a few moments. Like they do with a cell phone, most Tesla owners plug in at night. By morning, their battery is completely recharged.

Buick Riviera


Originally introduced in 1963, the Buick Riviera quickly became one of the carmakers top sellers. The last concept edition of the Riviera was showcased at the 2007 Shanghai auto show.

However, with the 2013 model it appears Buick may be getting serious about a production version. The 2013 Buick Riviera Concept has a futuristic flow to its exterior. This is no coincidence given its design was inspired by moving water.

Perhaps the most amazing "concept" of this futuristic vehicle is its wireless plug-in electric hybrid propulsion system. This allows for remote recharging of the cars battery via a sensory panel.

Motor & Performance

The Buick Riviera Concept car is a wireless plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (W-PHEV). Other performance elements include an air spring handling system that insures optimum performance under all driving conditions and an electromagnetically controlled suspension.

It also has a "smart" 4 wheel drive steering system. You are feted to internet access, the infotainment scheme includes safety settings and driver assistance.

 Exterior

One can only hope that many of the styling features seen on the Riviera Concept car will survive the production line. Some of its components are clearly too advanced for the entire unit to make it through unscathed.

There is no doubt the renowned waterfall front grille will be present proudly displaying the Buick emblem on its center. Hopefully the gull wing doors will survive, as well as the wing shaped running lights for daytime use.

Other exterior components include active pneumatic wheels, working diffusers and grille shutters and a metallic-fiber spoiler. Overall, the Riviera is constructed with a streamlined 14 degree angle fastback profile.

Interior

Just the like the exterior design, the 2013 Riviera Concept provides an all around flow to it. The front seat is described as "floating" that complements the adaptive seating system. The concept's center console is compact and easy on the eyes.

The head restraints absorb noise. All the materials used inside this vehicle are top quality, including the lava suede seats. Of course there is a high speed internet system that is neatly displayed at an angle resting atop a shelf-like extension on the dash.

Jaguar F-Type V8 S


 Engine

The new super-charged Jaguar engine comes equipped with the intelligent stop-start system for enhancing fuel economy under specific driving conditions.

The engine is 5.0 liter supercharged V8 that produces 495hp and 460 ft-lbs of torque. It has high compression ratio at 9.5:1, dual independent cam-timing, direct fuel injection and supercharger to maintain high efficiency and performance level.

Jaguar F-Type V8 S

Jaguar F-Type V8 S

Exterior

It has everything designed in a way that it is visually exciting whether physical or visceral. The headlights run vertically instead of horizontal, this leads your eye to look up naturally along the fender-crease.

Technology has helped in its design since only one projector is required for the compact-xenon unit. The grille leans forward slightly making the car appear as if it is in motion when stationary.

The design is also supported by automatically deploying hidden handles. This model has four outboard mounted-exhaust outlets with two outlets on each side.

Braking

It uses the Super-High Performance Brake system with the best set of brake-discs which are large and fitted as a standard including the 14.8-inch rear and 15-inch front.

Design

Jaguar engineers have used aluminum for the body structure as it is rigid and light. Some parts use an aluminum alloy to achieve the expected goals of the car.

This has contributed to an overall weight of 3521 pounds concentrating much of this weight on the wheel base. This was achieved by minimizing the rear and front overhangs which also improves stability and agility.
