“I can tell you that the Prius battery will last you a dozen years or so if youâre somewhere in the range of 150 to 200k miles. Thatâs with a sample size of 1 of course.”
The Colorado has drawn some ire from present owners and shoppers alike for the lack of various features that are available in competing trucks, parking sensors being one such feature. Their addition comes as a signal that GM is making an effort to listen to its customer base and tend to the various dissatisfiers.
Tougher emissions standards have prompted the development of alternative fuel engines. About 20% of buses sold by MAN Truck & Bus in 2016, for instance, had a gas engine. The company plans to start field tests of eTrucks and eBuses this year, and is entering partnerships for hybrid and electric vehicle (EV) R&D.
Before denouncing these devices, check with traffic officers (police), paramedics, fire fighters, emergency room physicians, who actually are routinely involved with major traffic collisions and ask them what they (or their associations) think about adding safety devices to vehicles.
The automotive adaptive cruise control system is segmented based on vehicle type: passenger vehicle, light commercial vehicle, and medium & heavy-duty commercial vehicle. Passenger vehicle is expected to remain the most dominant vehicle type during the forecast period.
Although electrification was the focus of our event last week, Deutz also showed us other technologies they are working on that will help meet the goals of sustainability and environmental protection in the CO2-neutral future.
You can’t even turn off the Stability control in my base Jetta. That oversight is a bit much…it snows.
There has been strong pressure against internal combustion engines worldwide, with the scandal over the emissions from diesel powered private cars has strengthening opinion against these engines. Diesel engine firms are taking the long view by offering future power options such as alternative fuels and electric systems. The engine builders are also hard at work ensuring that power units for the industrial engine sector have emissions control equipment that remove pollutants from the tailpipe exhaust effectively, meeting tough legislation.As clean combustion advocate Peter Kelly Senecal has pointed out, “The internal combustion engine holds a firm place in future transportation needs as well as in various industrial sectors. Specifically, for off-road applications.”In Europe and the US, the emissions standards for off-road mobile machinery have become more and more stringent as Senecal has highlighted. And Senecal has also said that the reliability and durability of diesel engines and ever-improving emissions control systems mean that these units will continue to dominate in the off-highway market for many years to come.Caterpillar is one of the firms developing new power options and is now offering its improved Cat C9.3B industrial engine in a version compliant with EU Stage V emissions standards.The six-cylinder, 9.3litre engine has benefited from more than 200 million hours of testing by the firm on its range of diesels in real-world, off-highway applications. A key feature is its new high- pressure common rail fuel system and simplified air, electrical and aftertreatment technology. This means the C9.3B can produce up to 340kW and 2,088Nm of torque, delivering 18% more power and 21% more torque than its predecessor, while weighing 12% less.Patented aftertreatment technology provides a compact, lightweight design, which is 39% smaller and 55% lighter than the Tier 4 Final product. Offered in a range of different configurations, the C9.3B industrial engine is available with engine-mounted aftertreatment and installed radiators from the factory.The firm says that the C9.3B engine has undergone thorough testing to ensure it can meet the industry’s newest and most stringent standards. It offers increased power and torque, combined with a simpler, lighter package, and the firm says that users will benefit from better performance as well as a 3% reduction in fuel consumption. The engine also offers improved starting in cold climates.In addition to the C9.3B, Caterpillar’s EU Stage V line-up also includes the 12.5litre C13B, incorporating technology similar to that of the C9.3B and with power ratings to 430kW.Caterpillar also is certifying its existing C13, C15, and C18 Stage IV/Tier 4 Final engines to meet EU Stage V emissions standards. Stage V certification for these engines will be achieved with no changes to customer interface points and with only minimal changes to the DPF. In addition, dual-label certification – Stage V/EPA Tier 4 Final (and Japan 2014/Korea Tier 4 Final) – will be offered for the C9.3B and all other Cat products in the 250-597kW power range.
New product development, advancement in technology, and collaboration with OEMs are some of the key strategies adopted by the major players to gain a competitive edge in the market.
19. The Scrambler 1200 line combines style with function. The scrambler craze has hit the motorcycle market hard for the first time since the late 1960s. Often, these machines are adorned with rugged accessories that serve as little more than fashion statements. The 2019 Triumph Scrambler 1200 XE has a number plate, the Monza fuel cap, tank strap, and other additions give it that undeniably Bonneville styling, and reinforce the scrambler theme. An aluminum sump guard is certainly functional, as well as stylish.
In 2016, Harley recalled more than 27,000 bikes, approximately 14 models, for a problem with a clutch master cylinder.
