Audi Calamaro Concept: A Flying Car?




Audi Calamaro Concept was developed by a designer Tibor for a design competition, organized by Porsche Hungary. Futuristic flying concept car looks like a cross between a speed boat and a plane. According to the designer, the shape is inspired by “the bone of the cuttlefish”.

It has no propellers, tires or thrusters. Maybe, it will be powered by a new type of power source that hasn’t been developed yet. It is a very interesting concept, but in addition to the unknown futuristic engine it maybe operated by some similar to "Back to the Future" movie engine.

They suggest the use of front-wheel drive rather than the standard Brera V6's Q4 all-wheel drive system and a sportier suspension. Autodelta's proposal completes the overall package by adding a supercharger to the mix as well as further improving handling. The addition of Autodelta's supercharging kit with an intercooler boosts the 3.2-liter V6 engine's output from 260 bhp and 322 Nm to a more potent 352-horsepower and 435 Nm (320.8 lb-ft) of torque. No performance figures have been released yet for the Brera S 3.2 Compressore.

HONDA CBR1000RR - Honorable Mention Award

Honorable Mention – Honda CBR1000RR In the literbike class, the CBR1000RR
marries the lightest weight, sharpest steering and most potent midrange punch to create our favorite 1000cc sportbike.

BEST SPORTBIKE 2009 Kawasaki ZX-6R

Kawasaki ZX-6R awarded best sportbike 2009,Kawasaki ZX-6R best 2009 car award
Costly (to the OEMs) updates to the 600s arrive every two years in a never-ending quest to one-up their rivals. And it's for these reasons why the ZX-6R is so redoubtable. Kawasaki has built a motor that handily out-guns its 600cc rivals, but just as impressive is a 22-lb lighter machine that handles like a champ, aided by Showa's fabulous new Big Piston Fork. Doubly impressive is that the Ninja took top honors on both the street and track – no mean feat. Triumph's Daytona 675 gives the ZX a run for its money, but among four-cylinder middleweights, the nasty and nimble Ninja stands clearly at the top of this ultra-competitive heap.

BEST OF 2009 -MOTORCYCLES OF THE YEAR

Best of 2009 - Motorcycles of the YearTriumph street triple


Motorcycle of the Year , Triumph Street Triple R become the best motorcycle in 2009
the Street Triple R was introduced just last year, replete with the Daytona’s up-spec fully adjustable suspension and potent radial-mount Nissin brake calipers, alleviating all of our concerns. The result is an invigorating and versatile roadster that stickers for less than $10K. Lofting the front wheel is a snap, and before you know it you’ll be drifting out the back end like an inspired Brit hooligan. And on your favorite twisty back road, its friendly yet potent character is almost unbeatable, proving that no one really needs triple-digit horsepower peaks. Now that Triumph perfected the Street in our eyes, it became the perfect Standard. And it's our favorite motorcycle of 2009.

Bridgestone debrief : British GP

This year the British Grand Prix was held for the last time at Donington Park before it makes the move to Silverstone next season. During the race weekend, weather and tyres were
the talk of the paddock as it gave the riders and Bridgestone's tyres a range of conditions to deal with. Friday's practice started wet but was almost dry by the finish, though riders used Bridgestone's wets for the whole session. Saturday was dry all day allowing the use of slicks and Sunday was in between; a wet warm-up followed by a damp race. Despite light rain throughout the race, Andrea Dovizioso took his first win using Bridgestone's soft compound slicks. Only two riders chose to start the race on the wet tyres.

Q&A with Tohru Ubukata - Bridgestone Motorsport - Manager, Motorcycle Race Tyre Development

The conditions for the British GP were very changeable; what did this mean for tyre performance?

From Bridgestone's perspective, it meant that we were able to show the broad range of track and weather conditions that we are able to effectively deal with using just two compounds of slick tyre and a single wet compound.

It was a difficult race, but I am very happy with the outcome. It is always very tricky to deal with conditions that are right on the fine line between wet and dry, and correct tyre choice is a crucial but hard decision.

On Friday we saw that our wet tyres performed on what was a drying track, and on Sunday during the race we saw that our slick tyres performed impressively on a damp track: the race was declared wet but it was won on slick tyres so for us this is a great achievement for the performance of the 2009 Bridgestone tyres.

I also want to congratulate the riders for their demonstration of great skill in very tricky conditions. Riding technique is even more important with conditions like these, and without such effort from the riders we would not have seen such a good race. They were able to use all of the performance of our tyres on a very slippery track because of their great talent.

During the race, the track and air temperatures actually fell so this meant that tyre temperatures and therefore grip became harder to maintain. In conditions like these, it is not a question of tyre durability but of ensuring that the tyres are able to work well at a low temperature, especially as the rain both reduces the coefficient of grip of the tarmac and serves to actively cool the temperature of the tyres further. I am pleased that even using our medium compound front slick tyre Randy de Puniet finished the race in third in these conditions.

Towards the end of the race, after four riders had entered the pits to change to Bridgestone's wet tyres, riders on the slick tyres and the wet tyres were able to lap at the same pace which is the best indication of the overlap of their operating ranges we have seen all year.

How will you prepare for the next British GP at a circuit of which Bridgestone has no MotoGP experience?

It is correct that we have no MotoGP experience of the Silverstone circuit because it was last used by the premier class in 1986. We only entered MotoGP in 2002 but since then have shown that we learn fast.

Bridgestone also has a wealth of detailed tyre and track information on the Silverstone circuit thanks to our involvement with the Formula One World Championship since 1997.

This gives us an in-depth understanding of factors such as the condition and grip levels of the tarmac at the track. We will continue to study carefully the circuit's proposed layout amends, taking into account information such as the very fast predicted average lap speed, and build a detailed profile of Silverstone.

We know the operating ranges of tyre compounds, so when we combine all this information we will be able to select the most suitable slick and wet Bridgestone tyre compounds accordingly.

Hyundai Nuvis Concept


The Hyundai Nuvis concept (hybrid drivetrain) is destined for the next-generation Sonata...


As a parallel hybrid, the Nuvis can be driven in all-electric mode, gasoline-engine-only mode as well as any combination thereof. Engine management software automatically shuts off the gasoline engine when the Nuvis comes to a stop, improving overall fuel mileage and providing zero emissions, while Hyundai's Integrated Starter Generator (ISG) restarts the engine once pressure is applied to the accelerator pedal.


The Nuvis is notable for two reasons: First, its hybrid drive train will find its way into the next-generation Hyundai Sonata, and second, Hyundai says the concept's styling hints at what the Santa Fe's replacement could look like.


Hyundai's Hybrid Blue Drive architecture combines a 2.4-liter 4-cylinder (known as the Theta II) with a 30- kW electric motor, the last also producing 151 lb.-ft. of torque. The total estimated output of 228 bhp is put to the road via a 6-speed automatic transmission. Hyundai says the Nuvis's lithium polymer batteries, which are stored underneath the trunk floor, are more durable and space efficient than nickel-metal hydride and lithium- ion versions.

The Infiniti Essence Concept

Infiniti Essence Concept Car

Infiniti Essence is the halo car of Infiniti that needs to define itself as a luxury sports car manufacturer. Representing the theme, "Everything I want, nothing I don't," the Essence is a front-engine, rear-drive sports coupe with seating for two. Its shape is sinewy with some interesting lines. Notably absent are side mirrors and they've been replaced with miniature cameras. The Power comes from a twin-turbocharged 3.7-liter V-6. It's not exactly the engine from the Nissan GT-R, but it is really close. The initial specs call for 434 horsepower with a 7500-rpm redline, but the final car promises a total output closer to 600 horsepower. Done with the addition of a hybrid drive system that integrates a 158-hp electric motor in parallel and combines the two power sources by way of clutches installed ahead of the transmission. A large lithium-ion battery pack leaves minimal space for luggage. The solution? Custom luggage from Louis Vuitton. With the click of a button the rear deck opens and out slides the custom cases. The automatic luggage ejection is neat — just what you'd expect of a concept. The Infiniti Essence is a part fantasy and part reality.
