smart cars

Small cars are not just cute; they are also convenient. This is the reason why Smart cars are getting popular nowadays. Smart cars are really small in size, about eight feet long, so they’re really hassle-free when it comes to parking. In fact, this car can easily be pulled in when there is a gap in a parking area. Mind you, I do not exaggerate. Imagine this, the front wheels of these cars can be squared against the cut back without sticking out their rear end on the next vehicle. Great isn’t?!

If you have not heard so much about these cars yet, then this is the time for you to acquaint yourself with the wonders of these cars. These cars are actually good for only two occupants—driver and passenger. If you are the type of person who just loves to tour around the city, or to drive from your home to office, Smart car is just apt for you.

Some said that driving Smart cars is too easy since they are simple to handle. In addition to that, these cars are also fun to drive. The fun actually starts from the inside and is only extended on the road. First, the interior design of these cars stands for its name, really clever. These may appear small in the outside, but the inside is surprisingly spacious. Second, these cars are also designed as convertible. When the driver is touring alone, he may simply fold the passenger seat evenly. The seat will amazingly be converted into a table with fitted cup holder. Third there is also a cargo shelf at the back where luggage can be placed including a small space for the dashboard, purposely made for small stuffs like cell phones. Ops! Save your jaw from falling, those are but the basic features of Smart cars.

Smart cars are indeed smart to drive because of their smart features. That’s unquestionable. But what really made these cars a smart alternative is because they are environmentally-friendly cars. These tiny cars require little amount of gas and emit lesser pollutants into our environment. Truth is, each gallon of gas can go for 40 miles be it a fast or slow drive. So, Smart cars are truly fuel efficient cars. Also, Smart cars may only be just half the size of a conventional car but their speed is equally competitive. These cars can run at a maximum speed of 90 miles. In fact, its small size helps on its speed. Lastly, according to the designers of Smart cars, 95 percent of these cars are made recyclable. The panels are crafted out of plastic. Only the batteries and the tires are not recyclable.

Certainly, Smart cars are not just environmentally safe. These cars are truly functional in nature too. So is you want a low maintenance, high performance, environment buddy car, Smart car is the best choice. Read More..

2007 Buick Lucerne CXS
Price as tested: $40,675
Miles driven during test: 1050

Mr. Vice Chairman Bob Lutz, GM’s justly famous product development czar, recently announced that the GM product he most enjoys driving is the Buick Lucerne CXS. I happen to believe that Mr. Lutz is fudging the truth a little in this instance. I’m sure that a healthy dose of truth serum would reveal that– given full freedom of choice and no witnesses–Mr. Lutz would much prefer a Cadillac CTS-V or a Corvette Z06, or something hot and smokin’ from Holden in Australia.

Nonetheless, the Lucerne CXS is a very nice Buick, and if I was Tiger Woods any guilt feelings I might have had for taking Buick’s advertising money all these years without making so much as a ding in the public’s indifference toward Buick, would start to go away. This is a driver’s Buick, in the sense that the ’85 Gran Sport was a driver’s Buick. When you drive this Buick, visions of ’41 Century sedanettes and ’38 Century opera coupes whip through the curves of your frontal lobe.

This Buick is extremely good looking, and it begs to be driven great distances. It is front wheel drive, which Mr. Lutz dislikes and which Buick dealers like a lot. In this connection, there is a single sour note. Nail the throttle and the very powerful Northstar V-8 engine seems to surprise the front end. The result is a moment of disconcerting torque steer. This can happen at any speed from a standing start to fifty or sixty miles per hour. Floor the accelerator pedal and the front end goes light and seems to wonder what exactly is expected of it. This is a surprise to us, too, because GM has built enough powerful front wheel drive cars in the past thirty years to have a pretty good idea of how they’re supposed to work.

We drove a CXS to Amelia Island, Florida and back, and found it to be a really worthwhile American-style tourer. On our return trip we covered 1050 miles in just under seventeen hours, including food and fuel stops. Average fuel economy was 21.4 miles per gallon. We enjoyed every facet of the car’s performance, including a very well thought-out interior. Driving quickly in relatively heavy Interstate traffic and maneuvering among shoals of tractor-trailer rigs on pure instinct in nasty, wet, barrier-restricted construction zones was more fun than a drifting competition Read More..
