Audi TT TDi

Friday, April 4th, 2008

With diesel technology pushing the boundaries of the current car market ever further it’s no surprise that major manufacturers are releasing more and more models in high powered diesel guises. The benefits being found in all areas including fuel economy and taxation. So Audi’s recent release (apart from the R8 TDi ‘Le-Man’ style super car diesel) could find its way onto many driveways in the UK… the TT TDi Quattro!

Acclaimed at 170bhp, 140mph, 50mpg, 350nm of torque, EU5 compliant at over 20 per cent more CO2-efficient than petrol equivalent.. and priced at a little over £26K?! a very strong contender for the best sport car alternative!

Residual values have been set my all major funding companies, making the TT TDi a very affordable and efficient vehicle to lease.

Orders can now be placed for Summer 2008 delivery! I’d expect the order books to fill up very quickly!

Nissan Electric Cars are fully on the way - except the 350Z

Saturday, November 24th, 2007

It seems that Nissan are going right out there with a all electric car view. Would be good when it comes to the London Congestion charge..

Predicting the future is never easy, but Nissan’s future product planner, Tom Lane, reckons it’s proving harder than ever these days.‘I’ve been with Nissan for 16 years and I’ve never known a period quite like it,’ says Lane. ‘The US consumer is not particularly motivated by fuel economy right now, but if the oil price climbs any more that could change within the space of a month, and trying to predict when that might happen is next to impossible.’

The answer at Nissan is the ongoing development of a number of solutions for reducing CO2 emissions, including all-electric cars, which could be with us sooner than you might expect.

‘Our current thinking is that some countries will adopt a zero-CO2 limit for city centres,’ says Lane. ‘So we plan to introduce an all-electric car by 2009/10. I predict that they will become commonplace by 2015 thanks to new battery technology.’

But Lane is adamant that this doesn’t mean Nissan will be abandoning sports cars in the future. ‘The 350Z has been a huge success for us,’ he explains, ‘and that car’s replacement is around 24 months away. It will feel sportier than the current car as it will be a lot lighter. The one thing I do know for certain is that having fun isn’t going to go out of fashion.’
