What is this Technology?

This technology helps to dub the stop-start system, which automatically restarts internal combustion engine and shuts down, and also reduces the time, which the engine spends. It reduces the emissions & fuel consumption.



This technology helps to improve fuel economy of the brand new 2013 Fusion and this would be ideal for the car owners who always drive on the highways and travel on streets.

This technology will be available in sedan body style models along with Ecoboost 4-cilynder engine that will be able to supply 179 horsepower; the expected EPA fuel economy of the new version on the highways is around 37mpg.

When considering other models like Buick Regal, Buick LaCrosse, and Chevrolet Malibu Eco, they are hybrid cars. But this new 2013 Fusion is the first non hybrid car that will be marketed with start-stop technology.

The new B-Max subcompact car will be marketed only in Europe, and it can be easily identified for its absent pillar between the rear and front doors, and is targeted directly at a demographic squashed by government severity measures.



It features company’s trademark EcoBoost fuel-saving advanced technology, which has been included in order to meet the needs of cost-conscious customers, who are looking forward to counter increasing gas prices.

A total of nearly 14-million units of the latest B-Max model are expected to be sold in European market.

Generally speaking about SUV, 2012 escape SUV is most popular in America as well as the nearby countries. It has got vast public demand and is the highest selling car in America.

The new 2012 model is 75 percent more fuel efficient when compared to its previous versions. The new Escape has captured the auto market and attained precedence over its precursor. 2012 model is small when compared to the 2011 model.



The Ford SUV is developed on the same lines of 2011 model and it is known as escape plug-in hybrid for this year. It is based on the new Mazda 3 and the FWD and four wheels ensure optimum performance.

The non hybrid engine can deliver 250 horse powers and 230 feet-pound torque. The top end expensive models comprise of 8- inch LCD display.

The updates also come in form of a supercharged 5.8 L engine that can deliver almost 650hp with torsion of 600 pound-feet. Amazing performance figures reminds us of its competitor Camaro ZL1, which only comes with 580 horses.



The 580 hp engine is teamed to a 6-speed manual dual-clutch transmission. We expect that the new convertible version will share the similar vital statistics. The vehicle is anticipated to get released in the year 2011; however it’s getting exhibited at the Detroit Auto show.

With 2011 F-150, 2012 F-250, F-450, F-350, and F-550, company has recalled almost 16,091 trucks in US. Dealers will inspect the vehicles and replace brake transmission switch. Another 4,000 vehicles are recalled outside US. Company is not going to sale any of the recalled trucks before inspecting.



2011 Juke has been recalled to fix sensor bracket associated to the inlet tube and almost 28,294 vehicles are recalled. If the problem persists, vehicle may stall at the time of idling and in few occasions it may not restart.

The company has decided to shift the production of its two medium-duty pickup truck lines from Mexico to Ohio Assembly Plant by 2014, and with this the company is planning to bring back the trucks to U.S.



The four-year agreement signed between the carmaker and UAW has triggered the company to take a positive move. So, in order to prepare the Ohio facility for the production of the F-650 and F-750 in near future, the company is spending nearly 128 million at its U.S production plant.

It is expected that nearly 1,400 new job positions will be generated at the Ohio plant to the region.

In our book, it has clearly won the battle against its new rivals including Hyundai Elantra and Honda Civic, with its first looks just by sitting on the floor.

We took the new Focus for a brief spin at a local “Ford Factor” event, and we noticed that it can equal the smaller Figo on a tight autocross road.



Both interior and drive of the new 2012 Focus was truly surprising, with some major alternations when compared to its predecessors.

It will be equipped with a standard 2.0-liter direct injection 4-cylinder engine, which is expected to pump out a maximum of 160 hp, and the engine will be provided with a standard 6-speed auto gearbox.

What else does she say about the ZL1 convertible? Here’s what she said:

ZL1 has all the expressions of its hardtop sibling- front air splitter, vertical fog light channels, and a vented hood.



In the interiors, the manual shift knob and suede steering will keep your hands fastened down. The Tremec shifter seems to be close to the Aisin unit of Camaro V6. That indicates that Camaro SS is less fun for shifting.
