LAMBORGHINI AVENTADOR S COUPE 2018 WALKAROUND INTERIOR & EXTERIOR GENEVA...
lamborghini aventador S COUPE 2018 WALKAROUND INTERIOR & EXTERIOR GENEVA MOTOR SHOW
the new Aventador S Coupé. Exclusive Lamborghini design and the new V12 engine with a whopping 740 HP now join the most sophisticated technology of the range, featuring the new LDVA (Lamborghini Dinamica Veicolo Attiva/Lamborghini Active Vehicle Dynamics), which offers an unparalleled driving experience to all those who honour their egos by challenging themselves every day.
Aventador means not altering its character but exalting it even more. Aventador S Coupé continues to display the unmistakable Lamborghini DNA, while strengthening its mix of dynamism, refinement, and aggressiveness by means of even sharper lines inspired by nature and by aeronautics. While the hexagonal design of the new tailpipes means that the rear end is as powerful as the engine of a space shuttle, the front end features forms that recall the fins of a shark, transmitting the same force and elegance in dominating the road. But the design of a Lamborghini is never an end in itself. Each surface of the new Aventador S Coupé has been studied to gain power and improve performance. Compared to the first Aventador, in fact, the new design elements provide an increase of 130% in front downforce, while the new side air vents reduce turbulence, improving cooling and increasing efficiency.
The interiors of the new Aventador S Coupé fully reflect the car’s mission, which is, to be different from all others: a super sports car with cutting-edge technology but also incredibly luxurious. The interior finishes are crafted using materials of the highest quality and present an infinite variety of possibilities, like the new S-trim configuration, created to celebrate the car’s name. The options also include the possibility to choose an innovative material such as Carbon Skin® and to have certain parts of the carbon body left exposed. The elegance of the interior is matched with the extremely advanced technology, such as the instrument panel with interactive TFT LCD display with completely redesigned graphics, and the possibility to enhance the interiors with a LED lighting system created ad hoc.
Aventador S Coupé is also endowed with an incredibly sophisticated brain: the innovative Lamborghini Active Vehicle Dynamics (LDVA) control unit, a system of active technologies that can manage each of the dynamic axles of the vehicle. The lateral vehicle dynamics is controlled by a steering system that involves all four wheels using Lamborghini Dynamic Steering (LDS) and Lamborghini Rear-wheel Steering (LRS). The vertical vehicle dynamics is handled by the Lamborghini Magneto-rheological suspension (LMS) and the active rear aerodynamics. And the longitudinal dynamics relies on the four-wheel drive system (4WD). The LDVA system combines all the information coming from the car’s sensors and establishes in real time the best setting for each driving condition. The result is performance that is absolutely perfect, safe, and compelling.
In any driving condition you might find yourself in, the new Aventador S Coupé gives you full control thanks to the driving mode selector, which provides optimal regulation of the engine, transmission, drive, steering, suspensions, and stability control based on the mode selected between STRADA, SPORT, and CORSA. But it’s the addition of the fourth mode that makes the Aventador S Coupé a truly unique species: the EGO mode. With this new option, each individual setting becomes customisable, creating the most personal driving experience ever.
The use of carbon fiber and derivatives is one of the characteristics which makes the Aventador S Coupé such a precise drive. The monocoque for the Aventador S Coupé, manufactured at Lamborghini's plant in Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy, is a single component which offers incredible weight reductions while reaching unheard of levels of rigidity.

Ferrari 812 Superfast 2018 WALKAROUND EXTERIOR & INTERIOR REVIEW FEATURE...
Ferrari 812 Superfast 2018 WALKAROUND EXTERIOR & INTERIOR REVIEW FEATURES GENEVA MOTOR SHOW YELLOW,RED,BLUE,BLACK,SILVER
FERRARI 812 SUPERFAST 2018.
RECORD POWER OUTPUT OF 800 CV AT 8,500 RPM
MAXIMUM TORQUE IS 718 NM @ 7,000 RPM
The 812 Superfast’s aero design is part of Ferrari’s ongoing commitment to continually improving performance with each new model, both in terms of speed and augmented vehicle dynamics for a more exhilarating driving experience.
The development guidelines aimed to achieve exceptionally high aerodynamic efficiency figures through boosting of the downforce that influences a car’s stability without increasing drag as the latter would negatively impact fuel consumption and maximum speed.
The aerodynamic coefficient values delivered by the 812 Superfast are a significant improvement on those of the F12berlinetta.
Mobile aero solutions, whether mechanically activated (active mobile aerodynamics) or activated by the pressure of the air itself (passive mobile aerodynamics), guarantee very low drag values.
To the side of the air intakes for engine and brake cooling, is a turning vane on the front bumper which is designed to channel air flows striking the front of car to ensure they hug its flanks, thereby reducing the width of the car’s wake. This in turn appreciably reduces overall drag. A spoiler on tail of the car generates rear downforce.
Three pairs of curved dams were adopted on the underbody and are responsible for 30% of the increase in downforce compared to the F12berlinetta, as already achieved on the special series F12tdf.
The 812 Superfast is the first Ferrari to introduce Electric Power Steering (EPS) which, in line with Ferrari tradition, is used to fully exploit the potential of the car in terms of performance by integrating it with all of the electronic vehicle dynamics controls.
The car also sees the introduction of the Virtual Short Wheelbase 2.0 system (PCV) which, starting from the experience gained with the F12tdf, combines electric front-wheel steering assistance with the mechanical concept built around tyre dimensions and the rear-wheel steering. All integrated with the vehicle dynamics control systems based on Version 5.0 of the SSC, with the aim of improving the agility and response time to steering wheel inputs of the 812 Superfast.
The integration of the EPS enabled Ferrari’s engineers to introduce functionalities to support the driver's performance experience by means of the primary interface with the road: the steering wheel.
Ferrari Peak Performance (FPP): when cornering, the steering wheel torque will provide the driver with an indication that the car is getting closer to its limit of grip, helping the control of that dynamic state.
Ferrari Power Oversteer (FPO): in case of oversteer, most frequently induced while powering out of corners, the steering wheel torque will give the driver feedback to give steering wheel inputs that are coherent with realigning the car correctly.
The mechanical set-up sees the adoption of tyres developed specifically for Ferrari by Michelin and Pirelli and retain the same sizes front and rear (275/315) introduced on the F12tdf to optimize the Passo Corto Virtuale concept.
The Brembo Extreme Design brakes, which previously equipped the LaFerrari, are the most efficient ever developed by Ferrari. Combined with the Hi-Performance ABS of the 9.1 Premium ESP, the braking performance from 100 km/h is improved by 5.8% compare to the F12berlinetta.

HONDA CBR1000RR FIREBLADE SP2 2018 WALKAROUND TOP SPEED EXHAUST SOUND EI...
HONDA CBR1000RR FIREBLADE SP2 2018 WALKAROUND REVIEW EICMA Milan Motorcycle Exhibition EXHAUST SOUND TOP SPEEED
PRICE £19 770
Introducing the SP and the SP2.
They’re closely related to the Fireblade, but these two high-spec motorcycles come with a little more of that Honda racing DNA. With an improved power to weight ratio they’re perfect for the type of rider who loves track-days or, if you want to go racing, the SP2 is the bike for you. The circuit is the ideal place for you discover the next level of total control.
The brain
The Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), which is located close to the machine’s centre of gravity is the bike’s nerve centre, constantly interpreting roll, yaw and lean angle.
The bike's unit also gathers wheel speed, engine revs, brake and throttle use from the other ECU's and – depending on the suspension mode selected by the rider – can calculate the optimal compression and damping force needed at different speeds.
On the brakes
Rear Lift Control (RLC) helps keep the rear end under control when braking hard and late, especially into corners. There’s also New ABS, which controls braking force according to lean angle; the Fireblade is incredibly forgiving.
Core to the Fireblade’s philosophy, this new engine is 2Kg lighter than the previous CBR1000RR and has new pistons – as well as new piston rings – that bump the compression ratio up to 13:1, adding 11bhp. It revs to 13,000 rpm and generates a raw, raspy engine note through the titanium exhaust.
The output characteristics of engine, chassis and – on the SP and SP2 – the suspension are electronically managed and constantly adjusted as you ride. The Fireblade’s modes are known as 'Fast, Fun and Safe' and can be adjusted by flicking a switch on the left handlebar switchgear.
Mode One
It Delivers linear, smooth throttle response, low HSTC and engine braking control while introducing high suspension damping force adjustments.
Mode Two
This controls the power output through the first three gears with medium HSTC, suspension, engine braking and suspension damping force adjustments.
Mode Three
Analyses output through fourth - to top gear. High HSTC input provides better traction and stability along with an increase in engine braking while adjusting to a low suspension damping setting.
User modes
There are two user modes, making five riding modes in total. When selected, the bike’s modes one, two and three can be programmed independently to suite rider’s style, his weight, track layout and conditions. Some settings can even be turned off if you wish.

Toyota Camry hybrid 2018 Walkaround REVIEW INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR FEATUR...
How Much Does the Toyota Camry Hybrid Cost?
The Toyota Camry Hybrid LE (the base trim) has a starting MSRP of $27,800. While that’s more than most midsize cars, it’s middle-of-the-pack for a midsize hybrid. There are two higher Camry Hybrid trims: the SE ($29,500) and the top-of-the-line XLE ($32,250).
Check out our U.S. News Best Price Program for great savings at your local Toyota dealer. You can also find excellent manufacturer incentives on our Toyota deals page.
Toyota Camry Hybrid Versus the Competition
Which Is Better: Toyota Camry Hybrid or Toyota Prius?
The Toyota Prius has long set the bar for what a hybrid should be, but the Camry Hybrid is coming for the crown. After its redesign, the current-generation Camry Hybrid is now just about as fuel-efficient as the Prius, while also being more powerful and more engaging to drive. Inside, both of these Toyotas offer a high-quality space. The midsize Camry offers more passenger room, but the hatchback Prius gives you much more cargo space. Each car has a similar list of features, including safety and driver assistance technology. Your choice may also come down to how much you want to spend; the Camry’s starting price is roughly $3,000 higher than the Prius.
Which Is Better: Toyota Camry Hybrid or Honda Accord Hybrid?
The Honda Accord Hybrid was also redesigned for the 2018 model year, and like the Camry, it rates well for reliability and crash safety. Both are fine options in this highly competitive class, though the Camry is a bit more impressive overall. It gets superior fuel economy ratings and boasts a more upscale interior. That said, the Camry Hybrid costs nearly $3,000 more than the Accord Hybrid. Whether it's worth the extra money is up to you.
Camry Hybrid Interior
How Many People Does the Camry Hybrid Seat?
The Camry Hybrid seats five people. The cabin is well-insulated from outside noise, and both rows of seats have enough space for adults. The rear seats have better legroom than many rivals, but the front seats might not have enough headroom for taller drivers. Visibility is great because of the thin roof pillars.
Camry Hybrid and Car Seats
The Camry Hybrid has two full sets of LATCH connectors for securing child seats. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety gave this LATCH system a Good+ rating (the highest possible) for its ease of use.
Camry Hybrid Interior Quality
This Toyota has a stylish cabin that features high-end materials. Even lower trims have a good feel inside, and there are few interior quality differences among trim levels.
Camry Hybrid Cargo Space
Many hybrids offer less space than their nonhybrid counterparts. Not the 2018 Camry. During the redesign, the battery was moved from the trunk area to the rear seat, so the Camry Hybrid has the same 15.1 cubic feet as the nonhybrid Camry. That’s enough space for a dozen carry-on bags or to take your cornhole boards to a friend’s cookout.
Camry Hybrid Infotainment, Bluetooth, and Navigation
Standard features in the Camry Hybrid include dual-zone automatic climate control, a USB port, and the Entune Infotainment system with a 7-inch touch screen, Siri Eyes Free, and Bluetooth. Available features include a moonroof, satellite radio, a nine-speaker JBL audio system, a Wi-Fi hot spot, navigation, and an upgraded Entune system with an 8-inch touch screen and the Entune App Suite.
The Entune infotainment system is intuitive and easy to use. The touch screen is responsive, and there are redundant physical controls for some functions. There are plenty of tech features, but the Camry Hybrid doesn’t offer Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, which can be found in several other cars in the class.
For more information, read What Is Apple CarPlay? and What Is Android Auto? Then, see the Best Cars With Apple CarPlay and Best Cars With Android Auto.
Camry Hybrid Performance
Camry Hybrid Engine: Powerful, by Hybrid Standards
The Camry Hybrid features an electric motor and a four-cylinder engine that combine to put out 208 horsepower, making this Toyota one of the more powerful hybrid sedans on the market. Power and acceleration are ample for most driving situations, but the standard continuously variable automatic transmission is slow to shift on occasion.
Camry Hybrid Gas Mileage: The Prius Better Watch Its Back
The Toyota Camry Hybrid got even more fuel-efficient after this year’s redesign. Now the LE trim earns 51 mpg in the city and 53 mpg on the highway. The higher trims are less fuel-efficient but still earn an outstanding 44/47 mpg city/highway.
Better gas mileage means more money in your pocket. You’ll spend about $100 less on gas with the Camry Hybrid compared to a Malibu Hybrid. In fact, with the Camry Hybrid, you’ll spend about as little on gas as you would with a Toyota Prius.
Camry Hybrid Ride and Handling: Not the Best but Still Good
The Camry Hybrid still isn’t on the level of some of the sportiest midsize cars, but it’s more than just a grocery getter, and it handles well on winding roads. It also delivers a smooth ride over most road surfaces. Front-wheel drive is standard.
Camry Hybrid Reliability
Is the Toyota Camry Hybrid Reliable?
The 2018 Camry Hybrid has an excellent predicted reliability rating of 4.5 out of five from J.D. Power.
Toyota Camry Hybrid Warranty
Toyota covers the Camry Hybrid with a three-year/36,000-mile basic warranty, a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty, and an eight-year/100,000-mile warranty for hybrid components. These are comparable warranty terms to what other hybrids offer.
Camry Hybrid Safety
Camry Hybrid Crash Test Results
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety names the 2018 Toyota Camry Hybrid an IIHS Top Safety Pick+, the agency’s highest award. The IIHS also gives the Camry Hybrid the highest rating of Good in all five tests. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gives the Camry Hybrid five out of five stars overall and the same score in each individual crash test.
Camry Hybrid Safety Features
Standard advanced safety features include a rearview camera, adaptive cruise control, and the Toyota Safety Sense pre-collision system, which includes forward collision warning, pedestrian detection, and lane departure warning. Available features include a head-up display, blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, and a surround-view camera.
Which Toyota Camry Hybrid Model Is Right for Me?
Because all Camry Hybrids feature the same powertrain and drivetrain, features are all that really set the three trim levels apart. The prices between the trims aren’t that drastic, so if you want all the features, the XLE is a reasonable buy. However, many features are available in lower trims, so you can save some money by sticking with the SE or even the base LE.
Toyota Camry Hybrid LE
The Camry Hybrid LE carries a base price of $27,800. In addition to the standard features, a few option packages are available. The Convenience package ($1,225) adds blind spot monitoring and rear cross traffic alert. For $2,125, you can add both the Convenience package and a moonroof. The Audio package ($3,580) includes the Convenience package (and a moonroof) and adds an upgraded Entune infotainment system, navigation, and wireless smartphone charging.
Toyota Camry Hybrid SE
The Camry Hybrid SE has a starting MSRP of $29,500. In addition to the LE’s standard features, the SE comes with leatherette upholstery and some styling upgrades. The Convenience and Audio packages are available in this trim also.
Toyota Camry Hybrid XLE
The Camry Hybrid XLE starts at $32,250. This trim comes with all the features found in lower trims plus leather-trimmed upholstery, an improved driver information display, and a head-up display. For $4,110, you can get the Audio package, which includes a surround-view camera, a moonroof, an upgraded Entune system, wireless smartphone charging, and a JBL audio system.
