the GTR spirit:

A nice video on the updated GTR featuring an interview with the chief engineer. Note too the personal ‘artisanal’ touch with the identification on each engine of how it is hand-built. As an aside, the interview, which has had over 2 million views, shows that it doesn’t matter if your English grammar is a bit off IF what you say is interesting and you are saying with a strong sense of authenticity.


The Nissan GT-R is well known for its performance capability and handling, this is thanks to the 3.8L V6 from Nissan, which provides the car with 542hp to all 4 wheels.
This impressive car also comes in a Nismo edition, making what was once a spectacular car even more magnificent. The GT-R Nismo has achieved an impressive 7:08.68s at the Nurburgring making itself into the top ten fastest lap times.

History: Between 1969 and 1974, and again between 1989 and 2002, Nissan produced a high performance version of its Skyline coupe called the Nissan Skyline GT-R. This car proved to be iconic for Nissan[5][6] and achieved much fame and success on both road and track. The Nissan GT-R, now a standalone model no longer based on the Skyline, has heritage in the Nissan Skyline GT-R.
Similar to the later generations of the Skyline GT-R, the GT-R is four-wheel drive with a twin-turbo 6 cylinder engine and has the signature four round tail lights. However, the GT-R is an entirely new model sharing little with its Skyline siblings and is a complete redesign from previous Skylines rather than an incremental evolution; the four-wheel-steering HICAS system has been removed and the former straight-6 RB26DETT engine has been replaced with a new V6VR38DETT.[7] Because of the GT-R's heritage, the chassis code for the all-new version has been called CBA-R35,[8] or 'R35' for short (where CBA is the prefix for emission standard), carrying on the naming trend from previous Skyline GT-R generations. The GT-R has also retained its Skyline predecessor's nickname, Godzilla,[9] given to it by the Australian motoring publication Wheels in its July 1989 edition.

Lexus' 2019 ES will be its first model with CarPlay support

-

Toyota has slowly been entering the modern era with  full smartphone integration  in its cars, and now it's time for the company's upscale Lexus badge. Lexus has  revealed  that the 2019 ES sedan is its first-ever vehicle to support Apple CarPlay, giving iPhone owners familiar apps and Siri while they ride in style. There's still no Android Auto support, sadly, but you do get Alexa voice control both in and outside of the car. The ES is a tech-laden car even if you don't care for voice assistants. The standard model includes an 8-inch center display, but you can spring for a navigation package that gives you an ultra-wide 12.3-inch screen and a mobile Verizon hotspot. Every variant comes with an updated pre-collision detection system that can detect cyclists. And this being a Toyota brand, there's naturally a hybrid variant -- the ordinary V6-equipped ES 350 is joined by a hybrid ES 300h whose updated electric motor is better at mimicking the power

Tesla Model 3 review: the fast and infuriating

-

I was standing next to the  Model 3  when a guy on a bike rode by and yelled, "How is it?" My typical interactions with people who ask about Tesla's affordable sedan (so many people ask me about the car) typically take about five minutes. I point out the highlights and issues I've encountered while driving. Without thinking, I threw him a thumbs up. It was a gut reaction to a car I've come to adore but have also been confused by. I should have yelled, "It's complicated The Model 3 also has a very smooth and nearly silent ride. It's quieter than most other EVs, and it glides almost as well as a mid-tier luxury sedan. With a range of 220 miles for the base model and 310 for the Long Range edition, you're going to be spending a good amount of time behind the wheel instead of sitting at a Supercharger. Yet no matter how engrossed you are in the act of driving, the interior of the Model 3 will probably manage to confound you at some point. So

Lamborghini Aventador

Noise is not the same as sound  Dealing with extremely demanding quality and performance targets is daily business at Automobili Lamborghini, one of Italy’s most prestigious sports car brands. These supercars are built to impress. Besides a breathtaking design, sporty driving experience and powerful explosion when pushing the throttle, customers expect to hear the brand’s characteristic sound when “all the horses” are released. Combining those prerequisites can be challenging. Although high-power generation leads to high internal torsional forces, and stable ride and handling calls for a stiff chassis, engineers have to make sure that sound does not become noise, and that the produced sound level complies with legislative requirements Giacomo Papotti and Claudio Manzali, research engineers in the Lamborghini transmission department, witnessed the complexity of conflicting targets while designing the Lamborghini Aventador LB700-4 driveline. “Even the smallest noise that can distu
