GM files patent application for a ‘clutch-by-wire’ system | Generator Diesel Consumption With Deutz Engine

6. The XE boasts IMU-supported cornering ABS and lean-angle detecting traction control. ABS and TC are described in the same nomenclature as the power modes—Rain, Road, Sport, and Off-Road—instead of the usual numerical levels that we commonly see. Off-Road ABS allows for aggressive front braking in the dirt, letting you slide the rear as you’d like. The Off-Road TC is fascinating as it teaches riders to understand how the motor breaks traction, yet it doesn’t eliminate spin either—it merely subdues it. If you give it more gas mid-slide, it will let go a bit more, but never become unleashed. To hang it out, you’ll want to go into Off-Road Pro.

I think in at least some of the cases, detractors don’t like these active safety mechanisms because it forces them to admit that they aren’t as safe as they think they are. Every time the car beeps during a lane change, it’s a reminder that they didn’t use their signal like they should have. Every time the car beeps and applies the brakes when the car in front of them stops quickly, it reminds them that they were following too close.

MIDDLE-OF-THE-ROAD BIKES: Kawasaki and Yamaha finessed their middle-of-the-road frames for 2019 by focusing on getting them to turn in. They aren’t Honda- or Suzuki-quick, but they didn’t want to be.

• High-speed transit and light towing mode can be operated on full power with the main engines powering thruster and electrical load from the gen-sets.

Alan Tolley said that tighter legislation had significantly influenced the way that JCB works. He added, “Stricter legislation drives innovation and that innovation… drives technological revolution. It provides a genuine opportunity to differentiate from competitors.”

Rather than develop its own electric drives from scratch, Deutz bought another German firm Torqueedo, which manufacturers electric drive motors for watercraft—everything from tiny fishing kayaks to trolling motors, rescue watercraft and large ferries. Completed just a year ago, the acquisition gave Deutz industrial scale, ready-made technology solutions for battery management, electric motors, controllers and the software that ties it all together says Michael Wellenzohn, a member of the Deutz board of management.

The Problem: Electric power steering assist may be lost momentarily, followed by a sudden return of EPS assist, potentially increasing the difficulty of steering the vehicle, especially at low speeds, as well as increasing the risk of a crash.

From there, things went similarly to others who claim to have experienced the same issue. OnStar called, he eventually got the truck to fire back up (though the seatbelts were out of whack because of the seatbelt pre-tensioners), he cut the airbags out, and later brought it to the dealership, where a third party eventually conducted their analysis on what happened.

The repair estimate is about $3,000, and appears to involve repair or replacement of the header panel, front bumper and end caps, and fenders:

Not the enthusiast. I don’t need my car beeping and screaming and jerking the wheel out of my hand if I decide to switch lanes without a signal on an empty stretch of highway. I resent the idea of a nanny computer that thinks it knows better than I do where I want to point the car.

Nobody has answered the question, “What price do you put on a human life?” We know the stories about how allegedly accountants at Ford and GM did exactly that.
