World's Most Expensive Car Crash?!

Most Expensive Car Crash
in Japan


This is going to be called a big one...

Here in Japan, a mega super ultra bunker-busting accident occurred and it involves high speed luxury sports cars including eight Ferraris at the Chugoku Expressway.

On that incident; eight Ferraris, one Lamborghini, three Mercedes-Benz cars, and most were crashed and this is going to be worth a hundred million Pesos worth of damage. Luckily, however, nobody's injured. Sad to see those owners ruined their prized possessions at the Chugoku Expressway. That's going to hurt...

Forza 4 meets "the new car"

Time for the Nissan Leaf to revolutionize
Forza Motorsport 4


The Nissan Leaf is "the new car" like what the Japanese ads say. This is a full-fledged 100% electric vehicle that is becoming a commoner of today. Even when the Chevrolet Volt is not on the same league as the Leaf because the Volt is a PHV (Plug-In Hybrid), they're still the arch rivals of today. Even when the Leaf is cheaper and more efficient than the Volt, most still prefer the Volt because "gasoline when you need it, electric when you want it", until news broke out about the NHTSA battery fire investigation. As a big news for the Leaf, it became the first Japan-made EV to win the 2011-2012 Car of the Year Japan, making electric cars no longer a niche market but a commoner to today's road.

Nissan Leaf versus Top Gear's
Reasonably Priced Cars

Having the Leaf featured on Forza Motorsport 4 remains a mystery for now but this is going to be "Clarkson: Heaven & Hell" all over again but this is not what we've expected for. They featured it because they want to make most out of it, even when Forza nerds are trying to revolutionize motorsports by making an All Nissan Leaf Championship by interest. Heh, if Richard Hammond took my advice, this would be the result; Bunch of Nissan Leaf vehicles racing on a circuit!

HANCARS never sold a Nissan Leaf...or did they?

Something cool about the Leaf is this situation; If I went a little Heaven-and-Hell style, like for instance, speeding through the straight part of Circuit De La Sarthe, and when it crashed at the wall on front, the EM61 electric motor still active even when it was crashed! Despite gearbox problems, handling problems, suspension problems, and other problems after the LEAF crashed, the EM61 motor is still running. What's this? This engine is having some kind of "Marauder-like durability"? Oh no. Better shake it off my head.

Zero Emissions is as good as it gets...

Of course, the EM61 electric motor doesn't shout, or bellow, or roar, it's just sort of humming. Humming like a monk... Alvin and the Monks perhaps? Oh sorry! Didn't meant to say it. Guess this Nissan LEAF is isn't the future and like what Jeremy Clarkson said on Top Gear, electric cars are not the future and we're just going deal with something that is even more "ZERO EMISSION" than this...Chicken Wires and Dodgems.

Nope...this LEAF is not a good Dodgem at the game of KEEP THE IT.


Volkswagen up!

2012 Volkswagen up!


Nope, this isn't the title of a Disney Pixar animated movie titled "UP!", this is the Volkswagen up!, a new compact car which is part of the Volkswagen Group New Small Family (NSF) series of models, consists of this, the Skoda Citigo, and the Seat Mii (now why they name it after the avatar made from Nintendo Wii or also Konori-sempai from Railgun?).

Never mind, the Volkswagen up! is the production version of the concept car as seen from the 2007 IAA Frankfurt Motor Show in Germany. However, this is not what you expected. Originally the concept version was Porsche-inspired RR layout but for the production version, it's just a hopeless FF layout because it makes a hassle. Still, a clean and powerful design really fits for Volkswagen's latest eco car built for the masses and it was built from Bratislava, Slovakia, along with its Czech and Spanish cousins. On the interior view, it looks clean and simple, but it's cool if you're a woman from 20's to 30's of age.

The up! is powered by a 1.0L MPi petrol engine that produces 44 to 55 PS of power and 95Nm of torque. It can go 0-100km/h in 14.4 to 13.2 seconds and flat-out the up! can go as much as 160 to 171km/h. It is mated with 5-speed manual transmission only.

The up! is available in four colors; white, red, light silver metallic, and black pearl. There is also a limited edition "black up!" and "white up!" as well.

My comment:
The VW up! has a good design that is fit for a box car and for a rule of thumb, the new up! is the replacement to the Brazilian-made Fox because the Fox is simply too rubbish for its own right and the up! takes the pace. Is there a possibility for the new up! to come in the Philippines? Not sure but looks nice. It can be a good seller in Europe against the Toyota iQ.
