The All new X-Trail is packed like that - a vehicle that will respond to the consumer's lifestyle should be supported by features that will ease, convenience, pleasure and safety, "shares Allen Chen, president and CEO of Nissan Motor Philippines, Inc.

The X-Trail CVT's design is inspired by the design of the toughest and authentic SUV in Nissan's product line-up. One would think it is similar to X-Trail the previous models, it is because the lead designer maintained that tough and functional characteristics known to the X-Trail. Based on extensive research among the first generation X-Trail owners, they loved their cars so much that they are not a thing to change. Hence the all-new X-Trail is subject to the styling concept of "function-oriented design" meant rigidness and comfortable roominess and good visibility leads to good maneuverability appeal. The all-new X-Trail CVT boasts a new chassis and new body, and the new features of the new model is attractive for the new generation of brass.

Guaranteed driving pleasure

The all-new Nissan X-Trail features of the CVT XCVT (Xtronic Continuously variable transmission) known to Nissan that guarantees a smooth driving experience drivers. Or the city or ride on a challenging terrain, the Xtronic CVT provides smooth gear change to fit customers' needs for more natural, strong sense of acceleration, which means less fuel consumption. This means a stress-free "no-shift shock" for the ride comfort.

Powered by the QR25DE 2.5-liter engine displacement, the all-new X-Trail is built high torque motor and output services. The improved QR combustion engine is designed to improve and optimize the operation. It also causes a lower noise and vibration. This gutsy QR engine with two overhead nokasse deliver peak performance of 170 kW of power and maximum torque of 230Nm.

With the all-new Nissan X-Trail CVT, one is certain comfort and ride stability to experience as it is built with a new suspension system was developed in Europe is designed. The new suspension system meets the condition, especially on a rough road and a long ride. Approved by the high-caster strut front for the straight-line stability at high speech and the rear sail approval of a multi-link system for optimal luggage space and ride stability.

This new model has a tight minimum turning radius of 5.3m, loft store-to-edge, the minimum in the market! It will be convenient in the city driving, especially a convenience to the rank in tighter spaces or parking.

Strength of the advanced technology

The all-new X-Trail uses a whole 4 × 4 mode electronically controlled 4WD system. It offers excellent performance 4WD plus reduced weight and size of the drive train. The system sends only the necessary torque, preventing the transmission of excessive torque.

It also has a mode control with the choice of ideal Dial-off drive at any speed or in a driving condition. The control dial is conveniently located behind the gear level in the center console, allowing administrators to choose whether or 2WD car to go, as well as 4WD. In normal driving conditions, the 2WD mode offers the best fuel economy for everyday driving. The car preference, on the other hand, monitors engine speed and acceleration. It distributes the required torque to the rear wheels automatically when needed. If you choose to use the 4WD, you can use the lock mode that locks the center link for full-time 4WD operation.

It also has a Cruise Control feature that certainly the managers for a long ride will travel a pleasure. The Cruise Control feature allows the driver of the vehicle's speed determined. It is mounted on the steering wheel that can accelerate the managers at the touch of a button. For challenging terrain, the all-new X-Trail is everything 4 × 4 electronically-controlled 4WD system will be useful.

The new model is also designed with safety features six airbags, High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps for better lighting and more strength in the dark ride, and a Zone body concept for added security and protection in case of frontal crash.

THE NEW GEM ‘’NISSAN SKYLINE SPEC-V’’

So do not break the design of new car companies. Today we are witnessing the same thing a number of super cars. In addition, the company does not get tired of working so hard for designers too (it would be necessary to find the secret of this energy too!) One company that is designing the cars are so simple, and recently has been a super car,

the designers do a lot for them. It is now the company is one of the most popular on the streets and has become a real connection to all producers. This plant is called a friend of Nissan. In 2007, Nissan had decided to take their cars to a new level and therefore the Nissan Skyline GT-R was released. Coming out like an old school Skyline supercar has received a lot of changes. It seems as if the whole car is not even the face of such land. This created a lot of chaos on the market, as it was one of the car, shifted the car is full of super street tuner cars. In 2009, Nissan introduced the variant of the car. This version is known as SpecV. However, this option had taken my life, when he appeared. New SpecV includes a new carbon fiber rear spoiler. With the brake duct and the grille is made of carbon fiber as well. The car is made in Black Opal black rims looks nice. Interior design is now a custom Recaro seats, carbon fiber console and panels are made of carbon fiber.




SpecV can be powered from a 3.8-liter V6 engine. New gear to increase the controller allows the car is increased impetus to provide more torque. Titanium exhaust with the assembly of the suspension made the car less than half as much as important as the upper half. SpecV has decided to launch in Japan only for now. So you should better put your chop sticks, not to buy this car is a big mistake.

Driven: Nissan Leaf

Having announced that they were to be building the Leaf EV at their Washington plant in the UK, Nissan have been taking the car around the UK on a whistle-stop tour of Europe.

Whilst the car was on display at one of the few public showings, Tarmac managed to get a drive in the prototype. Whilst the test car is based on the Tiida model, the running gear is very similar to that which will be seen in the production Leaf in a few years time.

First impressions of the concept car are good. It looks, too all intents and purposes, like a regular car. This of course is for good reason, as regular cars are what people actually want. With the best intentions in the world, electric quadricycles like Reva's G-Wiz will never become commonplace as they can't offer the space and pace that people accept from the cars they're used to.

To this end then, the Leaf is off to a good start. It's a five-door hatchback with space for five, a good boot, and an inoffensive shape that manages to retain a bit of character. The front is modern and equipped with large headlights similar to those on the Ford Fiesta, and the rear has a hint of the last-generation Renault Megane about it. Even the interior is much like a normal car, with normal controls and two hooded instrument clusters. Only the large digital display in the centre console really hints at the Leaf's high-tech drivetrain.

From this point, the package starts looking quite different from regular cars. The shape has been specially designed for aerodynamic efficiency - those lights split airflow over the mirrors to reduce drag, and thanks to LED technology consume less power, too. The large Nissan badge on the nose sits on a hinged flap that opens up to reveal two charging points, one for quick chargers that can provied up to 80% charge in half an hour, and the other for a more leisurely charge. Range is around 100 miles which doesn't sound like a lot, but most research seems to suggest that the majority of journeys in the UK are over fewer than eight miles, so even if you didn't put the car on charge every night most people would still have enough for ten journeys.

The batteries themselves are stored under the cabin floor. The electric motor they power delivers 80kw of power, or around 107bhp. They also give a huge 280nm (206lb ft) of torque from zero rpm.

Sitting behind the wheel of the Tiida-based test car and moving off, this torque is immediately noticeable. Movement is instant and remarkably smooth in a way that even the best automatic transmission in a regular car can't manage. Throttle response can't be faulted. The silence is rather eerie at first but it makes the car seem supremely relaxing to drive - I suspect that the utter silence and smooth power delivery would make even the worst city driving seem far less stressful. As would the controls, which are simplicity in themselves - a tiny joystic selects drive (left and back), reverse (left and forwards) and a little button on the top selects park.

The test car didn't have regenerative braking but the production Leaf will do. As such, the brakes felt quite sharp, having probably been beefed up in the test car to make up for the lack of engine braking. Normally, simply backing off the power would see significant braking from the motor - to the point where using the car's brakes would be an uncommon occurence in town.

Propulsion aside, it again feels just like a regular petrol or diesel powered car. It's difficult to make too accurate a judgement on the finished product given that I only got a three laps of a very short circuit in which to test the car, but both ride and steering seemed fine - presumably no different from the petrol-powered Tiida. Again, this is important in attracting the buying public to the car - all the benefits of EV technology but with none of the drawbacks of cars like the G-Wiz.

Overall, I came away very impressed with the Leaf and itching to have another go. Electric cars are rapidly getting to the point where they can be considered serious alternatives to petrol and diesel cars for many people.

Of course, this is very much price-dependant. The number being thrown about at the moment is around £27,000 which is a lot for a small family car, but as with any technology the early adopters will bear the brunt of higher prices and this will bring down the unit cost for the manufacturers.

The Nissan Leaf is a good car even at this early stage, and a serious indication by Nissan that electric cars can walk the walk as well as talking the talk.

Smart saved with Renault partnership

A recently announced deal between Daimler, and Renault-Nissan will see the next generation of Smarts sharing platforms with the French marque. The alliance also sees each company taking three percent of the other's shares.

This news is good for Smart, as the company has long been struggling to turn a profit and the deal guarantees its future. A short wheelbase platform being developed by the new pairing will underpin the next generation Smart, as well as the Renault Twizy and a new Nissan small car to take on Toyota's iQ. A longer wheelbase will also be used, which could provide a replacement for the short-lived Smart ForFour.

The move also increases the chance of a full production electric Smart, given that the Twizy is currently an electric-only concept.

Nissan Leaf to be built in the UK

Nissan's upcoming electric car, the Leaf, has been confirmed for production in the UK's Nissan plant at Washington, near Sunderland, Tyne and Wear.

The announcement is fantastic news for both jobs in the North East of England and the UK car manufacturing industry as a whole. Production is expected to commence in 2013.

Not only has the Leaf been confirmed, but it has been announced that there will be a Government investment of £20 million into the region to develop an electric recharging infrastructure, with up to 1300 charging points to be installed over the next three years. The 1300 points will stretch from Teesside to the Scottish borders, and are expected to be located as follows:

• 250 in public car parks
• 240 at workplaces
• 240 will be available for people's homes
• 90 will be in retail car parks
• 50 in leisure centres
• 50 at on-street parking points
• 30 at transport hubs

The majority will be centred around Teesside, Tyneside and Wearside, but others will be placed at locations around further afield for convenient recharging at some of the North East's more popular attractions.

The production and the Leaf accelerate the North East to being the leading location in the UK for electric car use and development and the Government has declared the area the UK's first low carbon economic area.
