Nouveauté 2010 : Kawasaki ZX-10R


Kawasaki ZX-10R 2010
Vous aurez de suite reconnu la face avant du ZX-6R 2009. Similarité qui s’arrête aux carénages, puisque la fameuse fourche Showa Big Piston, équipant également la  n’est pas de la partie; sans doute nécessiterait-elle des ajustements plus profonds de la partie-cycle.
La deuxième modification substantielle réside dans l’adoption d’un amortisseur de direction Öhlins pour calmer les ardeurs du train avant lors de fortes accélérations – le bouilleur développant toujours 200 chevaux en dynamique (188 en statique). Il s’époumone dans un silencieux redessiné et à la finition désormais noir mat, granuleuse, visant à alléger les lignes de la machine. On peut également noter de nouveaux coloris.

Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG 2011


Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG 2011 - Auto Expert ActualitésLa nouvelle Mercedes- sera en vente en Amérique du Nord à compter du mois de février 2010 à un prix avoisinant les 200 000 $; c'est peut-être un peu cher, mais il s'agit véritablement d'une voiture d'exception.

Même si l'on s'est passablement inspiré  de 1954, cette voiture comporte tout ce qu'on peut trouver de technologies à la fine pointe. Sa mécanique V8 de 6,2 litres développe la bagatelle de 563 chevaux à 6800 tours par minute et produit un couple tout aussi généreux de 479 livres-pieds à 4750 tours.

Outre cette quincaillerie des plus étonnantes, il est à noter que la voiture ne fait que 1620 kilos (3572 livres), ce qui lui confère un ratio poids/puissance de 2,8 kilos par cheval. En matière de performances, la  peut boucler le 0 à 100 km/h en 3,7 secondes à peine et le 0 à 200 km/h en moins de 12 secondes.

La vitesse de pointe de cet engin est de 317 km/h. Déjà, à 120 km/h, un aileron arrière se déploie automatiquement pour pousser la voiture au sol et améliorer sa tenue de route. 

Renault Megane 2 restylée : Une phase 2 légèrement différente


Megane1miniPour ce premier restylage, seul le Scénic ne fait pas partis du lot puisque six déclinaisons passe à la phase 2 : coupé, berline, 4 portes, break, coupé cabriolet et RS.
On pourra noter le nouveau regard et une face avant semblable à celui de la Laguna phase 2 et des feux translucides sur la poupe du véhicule.
A l’intérieur, de nouvelles couleurs de sellerie et de nouveaux equipements font leurs apparitions : radar de parking ou filtre d’habitacle à charbon actif.
Coté motorisation : le moteur 2.0l dCi de 150ch et 340 Nm avec boîte manuelle à 6 rapports pourra être greffé sur votre future mégane. Les performances sont attirantes -le 0 à 100 est effectué en seulement 8.7s- tout comme la consommation qui stagne à 5.4l au 100km en moyenne en n’émettant que 144g/km de CO2.
