Article Source: http://www.articlesbase.com/ – Tiger, Iguana Prowess Combined in Vw Tiguan
Volkswagen formulated another SUV entry for 2008 that spells bold and exotic. The concept vehicle is dubbed as Tiguan, a peculiar name coined from tiger and leguan (German word of iguana). Said name was elected by some 350,000 readers of Germanyâs Auto Bild magazine. VW Tiguan debuted at the 2007 Los Angeles International Auto Show held last month.
VW Tiguan is a Golf/Rabbit-based concept that hosts a wide variety of powertrain combinations. One of which is the 50-state-compliant 2.0-liter diesel. Said engine will also be incorporated to other VW vehicles like the 2008 Rabbit and Jetta. The engine produces 140 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque. Other engine options include the current 200-hp 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine and 280-hp 3.6-liter V-6.
“It was very important to us to have the car appear powerful. Muscular. For us that had a higher priority than anything else”, says Klaus Bischoff, head of the Design Centre in Wolfsburg. He continues, “An offroader needs a long hood and an upright position. That lends the vehicle self-assuredness and power.”
VW Tiguan measures 4.4 metres long, 1.85 m wide and 1.69 m high. The size of the 4×4 concept Tiguan can be likened to that of Touran compact MPV. Tiguan is powered by sophisticated car parts Volkswagen aftermarket and OEM. Under its hood is a diesel engine called BLUETEC. The latter was developed in partnership with Audi and Mercedes-Benz. The technologies used in designing Audi and Mercedes-Benz auto parts play a great part in making Tiguan powerful and influential.
BLUETEC, as a fact, uses ‘Clean TDI’ â which is compliant with the emissions standards in the world. BLUETEC also uses NOx storage catalytic converter, which is capable of reducing nitrogen oxides by up to 90 percent compared to other diesel units.
Car parts accessories for Volkswagen Tiguan include the breathtaking panoramic sunroof, vintage style black leather seats, steeply sloping tailgate, dark-anodized metallic tone front grille, dominant cross fins, and more. To complete the appeal of Tiguan, it is given a unique tyre design with orange radial stripe underneath the profile.
More Tiguan details will be divulged by the automaker in the first quarter of 2007. The compact SUV is scheduled to go on sale in the United Kingdom in 2008.

Article Source: http://www.articlesbase.com/ – Comparing Vw Touareg 2 And Land Rover Lr3: Which Is The Better Midsize Suv?”
In 1990s, midsize SUVs slowly replaced family minivans and sedans. Few models were created at first until it grew to around 35 recognized midsize SUVs at present. Midsize SUVs are proven to be more reliable compared to sedans and minivans on rough roads. The versatility of midsize SUVs in both road and off-road driving gives them an edge. Midsize SUVs are also more convenient to use compared to large SUVs if the size of your family is only average. It is more fuel efficient and can be manoeuvred more easily. Out of the 35 recognized models in this class, the VW Touareg and Land Rover LR3 are ideal for middle class families because they are considerably more affordable. The prices of these two do not also vary much from each other. The price of the Touareg ranges from ,000 – ,000 while the cost of LR3 is around ,975.
The VW repair manual states that the 2009 Volkswagen Touareg is a five-passenger 4-door wagon type vehicle that comes with a 4-wheel drive system. Its 3.6 liter V6 engine produces around 280 horsepower, while the V8 engine version has 350 HP. What is new for the 2009 Touareg is its TDI which has a capacity of 221-hp 3.0-liter V6 turbo diesel. It also has a 6-speed transmission system. In addition, the Touareg has a 4wheel drive system which is very much dedicated for extreme off-road experience. Safety precautions include an ABS, traction control, antiskid system, front airbags, and side airbags. The maximum towing capacity of the Touareg is 7716lbs. Its key features include power liftgate, obstacle detection for both front and rear, and power drive seat. The size of the wheels is 20inches. The Touareg was manufactured with Porsche and the design was inspired by Audi Q7 large SUV.
On the other hand, the Land Rover LR3 is also a revised model but nothing much has been changed from the previous one. You can see this in chilton auto repair manual. It is a five-seat vehicle which has a 3rd row bench that allows 2 more passengers to ride in. The engine is a 4.4 liter V8 engine which can produce 300 horsepower. It has the same towing capacity with the Touareg. Likewise, it is also a dedicated off-roader that is built for rough or muddy terrain. Most of its safety and internal features are also the same with those seen on the Chevrolet Repair Manual for the Touareg.
These two vehicles are similar in a lot of aspects. Looking at them will also tell you that there are not so many differences between the two. These two are both good SUVs for their class. However, series of driving tests proved that the VW Touareg excels over the LR3. The road tests that have been done include acceleration, ride quality, steering, handling, breaking, quietness, controls, details, and driving comfort. The overall result gave it to the Touareg which garnered a rating of 69 out of 110 compared to the score of 64 of the LR3. The road tests have been conducted by Consumer Guide automotive.

A little over thirty years ago BMW introduced one of its most fervently worshiped cars of all time: the 2002 Turbo. Packing the company’s first production turbo engine into a lightweight body, the 2002 Turbo was an instant hit among enthusiasts. BMW wants us to believe the new 135i M-sport coupe is derived from the same formula, and at first glance, they seem to have hit the mark – but only rigorous testing will prove whether they’ve managed to capture the magic of past models.

Article Source: http://www.articlesbase.com/ – Will Scirocco be in US or Not?
Car enthusiasts and experts are confused as to the status of the VW Scirocco.
It has hardly been a week since reporters implied that the sexy VW Scirocco would not be coming in the US. And now it seems VW of America Vice President Adrian Hallmark may have not been analyzing well his assessment of the carâs being in the country. A couple of days ago, VW spokesman Hans-Gerd Bode told the media that VW Chairman Martin Winterkorn will have the final say in this matter. He further said Scirocco remains on the U.S. dance card for late 2008 and that VW plans a huge product offensive at the 2008 Geneva show.
The people from the Auto week seem to think that the 2008 Geneva Motor Show would be the appropriate time for VW to announce whether or not the Scirocco will be coming to the US. Reporters say it makes sense for VW to unveil the production version of the Scirocco at Geneva, where VW was eerily silent during the 2007 show.
The media people were all surprised knowing that Hallmark’s reasoning for not bringing the Scirocco to the US was because it “might cannibalize GTI sales”. Current lineup Volkswagen models consist of four small cars, a mid-size, and an SUV.
The new VW Scirocco is expected in 2008 and it will be produced in Portugal. The German car maker expects to sell 150,000 units over the life-cycle. Such huge number of expected cars to be sold is because of Volkswagenâs “driving fun at affordable prices” philosophy.
The Scirocco is based on the Golf V platform. However, it will be 10 cm lower, 4.5 centimeters longer and 3 centimeters wider. So, generally speaking, that sums up to 4.25 meters in length, 1.39 meterd in height and 1.79 meters in width. Prices are expected to be halfway between the Golf and the Eos, starting from 22.000 â¬.
Unlike other VW remake cars, the design of the Scirocco is not expected to recall old Sciroccos. There will be, however, an attempt to make the VW design more emotional. This will be visually seen in the big honeycomb grille in the front, long engine hood and a truncated tail. Also expect of course a modified VW fan to be among the other features of the new Scirocco.
The vehicleâs engine is of two versions of the 1.4 TSI twin-chargers (115 and 140 hp); the 2.0 Turbo FSI with 200 hp, while a V6 engine is a possibility for an R32 or R36. It is surprising for VW not to have the 170 hp version of the 1.4 TSI engines, while a 2.0 TDI 140 hp diesel engine is thought to be a certainty.

Vw Radiator Fan—cooling Off the Mean Engine Performance of the âpeople’s Carâ
The Volkswagen engine packs a mean combustion process that goes way beyond normal temperature level. This is important in order to have an efficient combustion process on the air/fuel mixture inside the engine cylinder. A certain amount of percentage of fuel is converted to heat along the process. But if this heat goes into excess levels, chances are, it will melt out the internal parts of the engine. The pistons expand that they would not be able to fit the cylinders. Thus, overheating may occu

The State of Lower Saxony has made use of the Volkswagen law to limit Porscheâs control over the supervisory board of the company despite the fact that it holds the largest amount of stakes at Volkswagen.

VW Scirocco
VW Scirocco – Back For Good?
Most people know that the word Scirocco derives from the Mediterranean wind that comes from the Sahara desert you did know that didn’t you? Did you also know that the last Scirocco’s finally rolled off the production line as far back as 1989?
Well after a nineteen year or so absence the Scirocco is back some say by popular demand others say that car manufacturers’ attempts at recycling has started with just the names! Whatever your view on the matter I think the consensus of opinion is that the return of this sporty hatchback is all together a welcome one.
The origins of the Scirocco go back to the early seventies when VW realised they would have to replace the beautiful but rather ageing Karmann Ghia. For this they enlisted the help of the Italian styling guru Giorgetto Giugiaro and so the Scirocco or Type 53 as it was affectionately referred to internally was born.
First appearing in 1974 the Scirocco was a three door sports hatch and was fairly popular selling around 500,000 units by 1981. A few subtle changes were made during the first years of production but it was not until the second generation model arrived in 1982 that the car improved significantly with engine power output and torque up rated and a revised interior. The unique at the time spoiler mounted to the rear window became synonymous with the Scirocco appearance.
Production continued until around 1989 by which time a further 290,000 were produced whilst sales continued to around 1992 until the Scirocco had been replaced by the Corrado. Many Scirocco enthusiasts remain however and there is a thriving owner’s network especially in the UK.
After much press speculation in 2006 VW unveiled the concept version of the Scirocco known as the Iroc at the 2006 Paris Motor Show and it attracted a huge amount of attention.
The Scirocco went on sale in March 2008 and has already divided opinion but it is too early to say whether the lovers of the old Scirocco will embrace the new model.
The Scirocco GT is a three door sports coupe with a 2 litre turbocharged petrol engine developing 200 PS. Acceleration from 0-62 is 7.5 seconds with a top speed of 146mph for the manual version although the automatic is only a second slower. A six-speed auto or manual gearbox is available.
The Scirocco comes with ACC (Adaptive Chassis Control) this allows the driver to adjust the suspension settings to suit conditions and ESP (Electronic Stability Programme). Safety features include all-round disc brakes with ABS and a multi-point airbag system including driver and passenger plus front seats and also curtain airbags.
Options include cruise control and hill hold control. The Scirocco comes with 18″ Alloys as standard but 19″ are an available extra should you want to really look the business. 2009 should see the arrival of a less potent 1.4 petrol version together with a diesel.
Early reviews of the GT have proclaimed that the handling of the car is exceptional especially at higher speeds with low wind noise and precise cornering. The interior has a high quality feel as you would expect from VW. Fuel economy is better than expected unless you drive the car really hard.
Apparently the Vice-President of VW USA announced that he did not want the Scirocco to go on sale in America as it would clash with sales of the Golf GTI a claim that was later disputed by the CEO of VW who said the final decision rested with him!
Overall residual value should be maintained due to the interest in the Scirocco so it just remains to be seen if the new Scirocco is as popular as its predecessor but I have a more than sneaky feeling that it will.
