2011 Porsche Cayman R Review

At its launch in September 2005, redefined the concept mid-engine Cayman sports coupe that combines the dynamic chassis with brilliant sporting levels characteristic of the reactivity of its standard six engines. Now, with the introduction of the Cayman S, Porsche has developed further by car to reduce weight, increase strength and increase flexibility and handling to new heights. The new model will be the third version of the zone Cayman Cayman and Cayman S bond

55 kg less than the equivalent Cayman S weighs, and has the most power available in a mid-engine Porsche 330 hp Porsche Cayman S created for one reason: pure, distilled driving dynamics. With its sport suspension very attentive and careful attention to weight savings, the new model offers a Cayman driving experience even more accurate than the popular Cayman S.

Tracing its ancestry to the famous engine of 904 mid-cut 1960s, the famous Porsche Cayman S World Premiere at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show November 17, 2010.

Lightweight and powerful

The newest member of the family has mid-engine driving the Cayman highly efficient 3.4-liter, flat six-cylinder boxer direct injection of fuel (DHA) found in the Cayman S, but it has been to produce an extra 10 hp. With a gearbox six-speed manual, Porsche Cayman S sprints from a standstill to 62 mph in 5.0 seconds, two tenths of a second faster than the Cayman S. With the optional seven-speed dual-clutch PDK (PDK) transmission and the Sport Chrono Package, the exercise is reduced to 4.7 seconds. Top speed with a manual gearbox is up 3 to 175 mph (282 kmh), 174 mph (280 km / h) with the KDP.

The main objective in the design and implementation of the Porsche Cayman S has been to improve the already dynamic two-seater with a systematic reduction in weight and thus increase performance, driving dynamics and agility. With a curb weight of 1295 kg. Porsche's engineers have managed to obtain a power to weight ratio of 255 hp and 250 hp per tonne per tonne by the PDK.

More With Less

The largest savings in the use of lightweight components and find the level of equipment to those associated with driving performance. In addition to removing the air conditioning and stereo, the pilot based on the Porsche Cayman R uses a fuel tank just a little smaller than 54 liters and a sport suspension that lowers the Porsche Cayman A 20 mm, allows a central gravity.

The R Porsche Cayman also comes standard with a limited slip differential to improve cornering grip and alloy wheels 19 "(the first time in the Boxster Spyder) that reduce the weight of 5 kg. Skins Lightweight aluminum door for 911 Turbo and GT3, carbon fiber sport bucket seats and distinctive interior door panels of the 911 GT3 RS will also contribute to weight reduction.

Outside the Cayman Aerokit distinctive style sports - defines the Cayman S on the other, and halogen headlights black frame, mirrors and decorative contrasting "Porsche" sidebands provide additional distinction - with a fixed rear wing in a contrasting color. For customers seeking to differentiate itself further from the crowd another opportunity Peridot Metallic paint is available (as seen on photos.)

The Porsche Cayman goes on sale in UK I February 2011, prices of £ 51,731 in January. Included in the purchase price is an invitation for guests to explore the dynamic attributes of R and Porsche Cayman develop their driving skills through a program on the experience of the Porsche Driving Experience Centre at Silverstone.

The origin of R

Historically, the specific Porsche models are optimized for sports performance, was the moniker "R" for racing. Estimated in the model of this type is 911 R, 1967. This special edition coupe light of 911 was 210 hp flat six-cylinder engine parts Carrera 6 sports competitor, and weighed only 830 pounds. Only 19 examples were built.

2011 Porsche Cayenne Review

The new generation Porsche Cayenne will make its world debut at the Geneva Motor Show 2010. Each model Porsche Cayenne is a leader in the regional market and production than in previous models and offer an increase in consumption for performance up to 23 percent more.

The highlight of the new range is the leading technical full parallel hybrid drive-train, which combines sports performance in an eight-cylinder economy in a six-cylinder, and "navigation mode" single fuel consumption even more low.

Less weight

The choice of materials for optimal weight associated with changes in the general concept of the Porsche Cayenne - a new active substance and light transmission to all four wheels - has led to the total mass of the Porsche Cayenne S, for example, is reduced at 180 kg. This weight reduction is clearly a very positive effect not only on fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, but also the speed of performance and handling. Therefore, the width of the new features and technologies throughout the Porsche Cayenne says offers better ride quality both on and off road, with greater safety and passenger comfort.

Greater efficiency

The new Cayenne has been developed using the principles of the Porsche Performance Smart: more power with less fuel, more efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions. Thisphilosophy is evident in the introduction of a new eight-speed Tiptronic S automatic transmission to a wider distribution of speeds, an Auto Start Stop, optimized thermal management of engine and cooling system of the transmission, Recreational board system, and intelligent lightweight construction.

Fresh exterior styling and interior quality

In general, the new Cayenne is 48 mm longer than its predecessor. But despite its external dimensions, the design language of the new generation Porsche Cayenne is a more compact and more dynamic. The new design integrates the new model in the Porsche Cayenne and Porsche Cayenne's sporting character is evident, as noted in the shape and design so typical of Porsche car are also clearly defined.

Inside outer space and ease of daily use provided by a longer wheelbase by 40 mm. The most striking feature in the brand new high quality interior design is increasingly the center console that extends to surround the shifter, which gives the character inside the "cockpit" typically Porsche. In the back seat can move back and forth by 160mm, and the backrest has three different power levels.

Range Summary

At least three of the five versions of the new Porsche Cayenne consume less than ten liters of fuel per 100 km in the new European driving cycle, and two models that emit less than 200 grams of CO2 per km.

Porsche Cayenne

Porsche Cayenne Cayenne range 3.6-liter V6 gasoline. Power rose to 300 hp, but the fuel consumption has fallen by a fifth - in collaboration with eight-speed Tiptronic S automatic - and 28.5 mpg combined (9.9 ltr/100km) is a new European DrivingCycle.

Porsche Cayenne Hybrid

A 193 g / km, the Cayenne hybrid not only the purest version of the Cayenne with the lowest level of emissions, but also the purest Porsche entire portfolio. Porsche Cayenne Hybrid features a 333 hp gearbox which returns 34.4mpg combined fuel consumption (8.2 litres/100km) and CO2 emissions of 193 g / km.

In the intelligent interaction supercharged 3.0-liter V6 engine and electric motor, the hybrid Porsche Cayenne S is focused on maximum efficiency of global powertrain. Depending on driving conditions, the vehicle reached this goal with a single disk drive to operate independently or with the two drives to work together. In this context, engine 34 kW (47 hp) electric current is the ideal partner for the 333 hp engine with compressor of high torque at low speed. Together, the two units to give a maximum power of 380 hp and maximum torque of 580 Nm at just 1000 rpm, with the same type of performance than the Porsche Cayenne S with its power unit with a V8 petrol engine classic.

The two drives are connected to each other by an original clutch separation Hybrid Computer Manager. This coupling of separation is essential to drive the Porsche Cayenne hybrid or electric motor or internal combustion alone, or with both drive units to work together. Thus, during relaxed driving conditions, for example in a residential area, this driver to cover short distances on electricity, and therefore absolutely free of emissions (and with almost no noise). It is also possible to operate in this mode at speeds approaching 40 mph (60 kph).

But to ensure a rapid acceleration when off, the electric motor that provides more thrust through its "boost" effect. Intelligent control of clutch separator allows a striking transition between modes of operation of the hybrid system, and that is comfortable and easy to master. At the same time, the combustion engine must be switched off at speeds up to 97 mph (156 km / h) is completely decoupled from the drivetrain when not force is necessary. In this navigation mode is called, cruising along without power they draw power from internal combustion and their braking effect is removed to reduce drag and thus fuel further benefit.

Porsche Cayenne Diesel

Porsche Cayenne Diesel has 240 hp (176 kW) offering three-liter V6 engine 550 Nm of pulling force. In the new car, this engine now offers the consumer 20 percent less fuel, with a combined total of 38.2 miles per gallon (7.4 km ltr/100) increased from 30.4 miles per gallon (9.3 liters / 100 km). Consequently, CO2 emissions of 195 g / km.

Porsche Cayenne S

The maxim more power with less fuel is clear from the Cayenne S, now has a 400 hp high torque motor 4.8-liter V8 gasoline. With 15 more horsepower than the previous model, combined with greater economy, this new engine performs much better in general, like all models of the new generation Porsche Cayenne. Specifically, the fuel consumption by 23 percent, with a combined 26.9 MPG (10.5 L/100km).

Porsche Cayenne Turbo

Greater efficiency is also an attribute of the Porsche Cayenne Turbo, with its 500 hp (368 kW) V8 4.8-liter twin-turbo combined voting 27.6 miles per gallon (11.5 ltr/100 km) in the new driving cycle Europe. Is again a 23 percent lower than its predecessor.

2011 Porsche 911 GT3 R Hybrid Review

Porsche 911 GT3 R hybrid innovative hybrid propulsion will be presented at the Geneva Motor Show 2010, taking the evolution of the iconic sports coupe with new levels of motorsport and opening a new chapter in an illustrious career record saw more than 20,000 victories in 45 years.

 

After her debut in Switzerland, Porsche 911 GT3 R hybrid tested long term around the Nurburgring in Germany. The culmination of this test program will be 24 hours of racing around the circuit 14-mile Nurburgring Nordschleife 15/16 May 2010. However, the emphasis is not on the Porsche 911 GT3 R hybrid race win, but rather serves as a spearhead in technology and laboratory race, which will provide valuable knowledge and insight on the future use of hybrid technology on public roads Porsche sports cars.

110 years since Ferdinand Porsche - Founder of the company - has developed the first hybrid car powered world, the Lohner Porsche Semper Vivus, is entirely appropriate that Porsche is once again with this unity of vision concept in a program production-based GT race car.

The hybrid technology featured in the Porsche 911 GT3 R hybrid was developed specifically for the race, and unlike conventional hybrid systems in the configuration and component selection. Individual electric front axles with two electric motors each developing 60 kW 480 hp family supplements (353 kW) petrol engine with four-cylinder flat-six 'boxer' in the back of the Porsche 911 GT3 R hybrids. Therefore, the Porsche 911 GT3 R hybrid four-wheel drive provides traction and agility.

Another important point is that instead of the usual battery of conventional hybrid road car powered, the 911 has a generator of electric steering wheel - mounted inside the cab beside the driver - which transmits energy to the electric motors in the front axle.

Flywheel itself is an electric motor - the rotor can rotate up to 40,000 rpm - and store mechanical energy of the cycle, or kinetic energy. Flywheel for whenever the driver to brake, in which two electric motors to turn the front axle of their activities and act as self-generators.

The driver is able to draw extra energy from charging the battery charged at his command for competitive advantage, as when accelerating out of a turn or overtaking. generator driving slower electromagnetic generator of fashion and can provide up to 120 kW for two electric motors to the front axle of its kinetic energy resources. This extra power is available to the teacher after each charging process about 6-8 seconds.

The energy previously converted into heat and therefore lost after applying the brakes are now converted very efficiently to the extra power.

Under race conditions, hybrid engines are used in this case not only for the extra power, but also to save fuel. This performance increases efficiency and thus the Porsche 911 GT3 R hybrid, by reducing the weight of the fuel tank or make pit stops less frequent, for example.

Porsche Performance Smart

Porsche 911 GT3 R Hybrid is a perfect example of the philosophy of Porsche intelligent performance, a principle is found in all Porsche, defined as more power with less fuel, more efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions - on the race track and on the road. Already, customers can buy a Porsche 911 coupe with an engine power six-cylinder 345 that can return nearly 30mpg combined and produces only 225 g / km of CO2, a feat unmatched in its class and an example of the implementation of Porsche Intelligent maintain outstanding performance driving dynamics also lower operating costs and environmental impact.

Design of intelligent solutions designed to combine individual performance and efficiency in daily use is something for which Porsche is recognized and is evident in developments such as methods of body light Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB) and the Porsche Doppelkupplungsgetreibe (PDK) dual-clutch gearbox.

Porsche Carrera - GT Review

This Porsche's sports car is an open two-seater that comes with an easy to use roof made of lightweight carbon.
Originally Carrera GT was built for the street, however it is obvious that it is a racing car. It produced such monstrous amounts of horse power from its V10 engine that labeling it a simple street car is totally inappropriate. It easily qualifies to be named a super car. Carrera GT extends the possibilities of road driving and racing to the whole new level. It features an engine that easily tops the charts of the most powerful and fastest road cars.

With its imposing rear wing, this super sports car is easily spottable from any angle as a powerful and fast presence on the road.

Carrera engine has an incredibly low (even for a supercar) gravity center, a sixty-eight degree V angle and 4 valves for each head of cylinder. It's engine weights astonishingly only 214 kg (472 lbs).
911 model has been Porsche's top selling car for over three decades, however when the new Carrera GT with its specific style and substance came out, it quickly took the crown of top selling Porsche sports car. As of May 2006, 1,270 Carrera GT's had been sold.

Take the car out on a lengthy test drive. Check the handling on as many different roads as you can. If there are any signs of violent steering then it's likely that it will have a wheel balance problem. Call a Porsche specialist and ask for an estimate of how much it would cost to repair and then try to haggle the price down.

Why Porsche 911-2011

To save money when you buy a Porsche means you need to actively hunt for errors with the car so you can negotiate a price reduction. This price reduction should be a little more than what it would cost to repair, that way the bill will be covered and you will have a little money off for the inconvenience. Its finding these problems that proves difficult for a non Porsche dealer.

Ferrari 430 VS Porsche 911 Carrera S

The Ferrari 430 and Porsche 911 Carrera S are two sports cars that are begging to be compared in road tests. What are the results ? Well the Ferrari 430 will zoom from 0 to 100km in 4 seconds while the Porsche does it in 4.8 seconds. Hardly something you can consider slow, but when comparing it to the 430 it is noticeably slower. For fast acceleration like this, both sports cars will need sport brakes, both offer ceramic disc brakes.

Now the last part or the 8 was for the number of cylinders or 8. So taken together, the 308 number means a V8 engine of about 3 liters in capacity. All Ferraris do not use this approach, so be careful and don't assume a car like a Ferrari 330 is a 3.3 liter engine with zero cylinders.

2011 Porsche Boxster Exterior

As expected from Porsche, the new 2010 Boxter remains mostly the same. Ten years after its first production, the classically styled Porsche Boxter is still the serious, mid-engine sports car that runs hard and fast.

Boxster Exterior - 8.1 (Very Good)

The 2011 Porsche Boxster has an attractive exterior, but the top model -- the Spyder -- has an annoying top that drivers must assemble themselves. Not all test drivers liked the manual labor, but some didn’t mind too much. “It is a pain in the ass; it is kind of fun; it builds character

Another thing that you won or inspect on the car is how the body looks. If the body is all smashed up dented and other things, you might want to try and get the price not found if you're selling just in the car or just walk away because it might cost you too much money on top of what you will be paying for the car.

TechArt Porsche Panamera Grand GT Reviews

The German Porsche specialist, TechArt, pleasantly surprised us with his package for the Porsche Panamera, called GrandGT, and is based on the same already presented in March at the Geneva Motor Show, but in this case, with improvements both outside and inside and techniques.

Among the items found a front bumper with integrated splitter, included in the same air intakes for both the fresh air supply to the cooling of the brakes.
