Fun and Fuel Efficient in 2009 : New Lexus l2009
Fun and Fuel Efficient in 2009
by Robert Dillman
Performance and miles per gallon are rarely mentioned positively together in the same sentence. During the American muscle car era, depleting oil sources and $4.00 per-gallon gasoline prices were never on the minds of the automakers. Therefore the biggest, most powerful engines possible were stuffed into the heaviest body and frame structures ever seen on the road. Today is a much different story. Unstable oil prices and economic turmoil are a burden on the auto industry. With hybrid and electric powered vehicles on the distant horizon, many automakers are looking to their compact four-cylinder models to keep business afloat. Some of these compact cars are not only extremely fuel efficient, a few are downright sporty and actually fun to drive. These light chassis platforms may soon be the only options for car-driving enthusiasts to afford to own. Here is a short list of the fun and versatile cars coming out for the 2009 model year. 2009 Toyota Matrix The newest rendition of the Matrix model from Toyota is the fastest and sportiest yet. With multiple engine, transmission and drivetrain choices, the Matrix buyer is given the ability to decide which combination is best suited for him/her in everyday driving. The base model Matrix comes with a 1.8 liter engine with 132 horsepower and either a four-speed automatic or five-speed manual transmission. The base model comes in a front-wheel drive trim and gets and astounding 32 miles-per-gallon on the highway. S and XRS model variants of the Matrix both come with the bigger 2.4 liter engine with 160 horsepower. This engine also has Toyota's variable-valve-timing system to achieve fuel economy at lower revs but still provide a burst of power in the higher rev-range. The S trim comes standard with the all-wheel-drive system and the four-speed automatic tranny, while the XRS is fitted with the five-speed manual gear box and the front-wheel-drive system. The choices are complicated but give the consumer complete control on what they want to drive. This sport-hatchback offers a more aggressive model to the Toyota lineup, with great fuel economy and everyday utility. The suspension has been redesigned from the Corolla model to offer better handling and less body roll. Prices from the Matrix start at $17,000 for the base model and can climb to $22,000 for a loaded S trim all-wheel-drive variant. 2009 Honda Fit The Fit is also redesigned for 2009. Honda has upgraded the new Fit with much more aggressive styling, a newer-more powerful engine, bigger-more efficient brakes and a more refined and roomier interior. The Sport version also offers suspension upgrades and even more styling cues to the already sporty base model. The new Fit comes with a retuned 1.5 liter i-VTEC motor with 117 horsepower. It's up eight horses from last year's model but still gets 35 miles-per-gallon on the highway. Like the Matrix, the Fit's engine features variable-valve-timing technology (like most Hondas) that allows the driver to have excellent fuel economy at low revs and better performance at higher engine speeds. The body and frame of the Fit have also been redesigned to offer a more rigid and stiffened suspension ride quality when you are cornering through the twistys. For the 2009 model, two transmissions are offered: a five-speed manual or five-speed automatic with steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters. The paddle shifters are Formula One inspired and offer the driver instantaneous up and down shifts at their fingertips. The base model Fit starts at $14,500 while the sport model with the optional navigation system comes is priced around $19,000. That makes the Fit affordable in any model or variation and the bargain of the year when you combine its performance and styling with its fuel efficient nature. 2009 Mini Cooper The 2009 Cooper is relatively the same-looking as the first generation that arrived in the U.S. in 2006. Besides a few design changes to the front end (headlights, hood-scoop) and a new wheel design, the first and second generation Coopers are identical. That however, is where the similarities end. The most distinct change to the Mini is all-new turbocharged power plant under the hood of the S trimmed model. The 1.7 liter four-banger is no fitted with BMW's twin-scroll turbocharger to deliver neck-snapping torque at every rpm. The old Mini had a supercharged 1.6 liter engine that lacked the top end horsepower of the new version. Power is up to 172 horses. By the way, not only in the new Cooper S the fastest on this list, but on the highway it gets the best gas mileage. It's a whopping 37 miles per gallon on the highway. The new Mini comes in two trims, base and S models. Each comes with a close-ratio six-speed manual gear box, but a six-speed automatic with paddle shifters is optional. The cheaper base model gets a 1.6 liter motor with 120 horsepower instead of the turbocharged mill. Both models get the famous Cooper go-kart style suspension, but the S model comes standard with upgraded springs, stiffer shocks, bigger vented disc brakes and a new traction control system; to give it even better handling characteristics. Pricing for the base model Cooper starts at $19,200, while the S model is $22,600, making this the most expensive compact on this list if you opt for the fully-loaded S model. It's well worth the price though, for all of the performance and handling upgrades that Mini is offering with their 2009 model. The Cooper's excellent fuel economy alone will make the new version a hot seller as gas prices continue to climb.

Will Hydrogen Cars Replace Hybrid Cars? : New Lexus hybrid cars 2009
Will Hydrogen Cars Replace Hybrid Cars?
by Wendy Gorman
Wouldn't you just know it, just as the Hybrid Car begins to make its presence felt as the saviour of tomorrows motorist (and the world) along comes another young pretender to the throne - The hydrogen fuelled car. Some people say that hydrogen cars will have pure refeshment water on tap. We shall see, in theory it could happen with a Hydrogen Car but they are way behind the Hybrid Car in their development program and forecasting is impossible. Hydrogen cars do however, have the potential to be better cars than Hybrid Cars in several ways so we need to compare their known characteristics.
Hydrogen cars use a chemical reaction rather than a burning process for motive power
Conventional cars burn fossil fuel and Hybrid Cars use smaller amounts of the same fuel to charge their batteries. Hydrogen Cars do not use fossil fuel at all. Instead Hydrogen Cars depend upon a chemical reaction between Hydrogen and Oxygen that produces a lot of energy plus pure water residue - a completely pollution free process. Hence the earlier reference to water on tap in Hydrogen cars. It is not possible for Hybrid Cars to achieve the same thing without breaking the Laws of Chemistry.
The reaction process in Hydrogen Cars produces up to three times the energy output from the equivalent gasoline based process in conventional and hybrid cars.
Hydrogen fuel burns both hotter and faster than fossil based fuel and is therefore much more efficient. In theory therefore it should be possible to design Hydrogen Cars that canreach incredible speeds with as yet unrealised acceleration compared to Hybrid Cars. There is simply no way that Hybid Cars, dependent as they are (in all their forms) on battery power, will be able to compete on this level.
The question arises "Is the hydrogen car concept for real?
Many people believe that Hybrid Cars reflect reality much more than Hydrogen Cars do. Hybrid Cars exist on our roads now and have already cut pollution emmissions by some 30% to 50%. Why then do we need to indulge in a possible flight of fancy such as the Hydrogen Car by investing vast sums of money to try to achieve the impossible?
The Hydrogen used in Hydrogen Cars is defined as a fuel carrier. It is not considered to be a fuel source in itself.
Indeed, it is hoped by some proponents of this type of fuel process, that in the future it will be possible to produce hydrogen with the use of such sources as wind power and other renewable energy sources.That means that hydrogen has to be produced from other sources. And people are hoping that hydrogen will be able to be produced from things such as wind power or other types of renewable sources. Right now, it looks like all we have is natural gas. That is the most efficient way to get hydrogen. And if that's the case, then there's no need to make hydrogen cars. Hybrid cars already cut down on how much gas people use. Who needs hydrogen cars that may end up costing us more in natural gas?
It will be hard create a lot of stations to fuel hydrogen cars
People are saying there is an overwhelming amount of challenges when it comes to creating the multitudes of hydrogen fueling stations that would be needed if millions of people suddenly started owning hydrogen cars. Hybrid cars use gas. And we already have gas stations.
But president Bush has made it clear that he wants hydrogen cars to be on the roads in significant numbers by the year 2020. So it seems that those who oppose hydrogen cars might just have to hold their breath and see if hydrogen cars actually live up to the lofty promises people associate with them. If they don't live up to their promises, people will probably start running back to hybrid cars in droves. And that's not too bad. Hybrid cars or hydrogen cars, one of them is going to get us to cleaner air.

How Hybrid Cars can help alleviate the Energy Crisis : New Lexus hybrid cars 2009
How Hybrid Cars can help alleviate the Energy Crisis
by Wendy Gorman
We are always being told that as a nation we are not doing enough to alleviate the coming Energy Crisis. Not enough people are yet driving Hybrid Cars to have a big impact, but perhaps that is about to change. The following review addresses how hybrid cars may affect some issues related to the energy crisis.
The United States really has not got its act together in this area.
As the greatest consumer of fossil fuels in the world, we have the greatest potential to act. A large portion of the population however, seem to believe that any energy problems can be solved if only we were prepared to fully exploit existing oil reserves in such places as Alaska or the recently discovered oil deposits in the Gulf of Mexico. Hybrid cars have the potential to protect us from having to use other sources of energy to keep the economy going. Increased use of Hybrid cars won't in itself cause Americans to consume increased amounts of fossil fuel. In fact, Hybrid Cars use much less gasoline-type fossil fuels than conventional cars do.
The American population currently seems unmoved by continuing gas price increases.
Not long ago, people reacted badly to a year on year price comparison that showed significant increase. Now, people let it pass with hardly a murmur. At the same time, car manufacturers, particularly in the gas guzzling fields of trucks and sports utility vehicles, are making autos bigger and bigger. A fashion icon it may be, but try getting the average SUV owner to downsize from his beloved sports charger! In the long run, Hybrid cars cost less than the equivalent conventionally driven vehicle. Thus there is hope that John Doe has a glimmer of light in his struggle to survive the continuing problems of over reliance on an (literally and metaphorically) oil-driven economy.
It could well be argued that the period of cheap oil is already over.
In the near future we could all be swamped by the combined backlash of an energy crisis reinforced with a coincidental 'peak oil crisis'. The affect of a 'peak oil crisis' will be worldwide shortages of both natural gas and oil products. Industrial countries, together with large and small developing countries will be pitched against each other for access to the diminishing stocks that remain. A growing market for Hybrid Cars would be a major weapon against this scenario coming to fruition. The 'peak oil crisis' would not only be postponed, but such a growth in hybrid car purchase could reduce the pressure for more oil exploration activity. Each day, advances are being made in the technology of Hybrid Cars and thus each day the proposition becomes more attractive to the man on the street.
It is perfectly feasible that the recent introduction of the plug-in concept for hybrid cars could result in such vehicles eventually using no gasoline at all.
As the Energy Crisis continues to build, the American people need to galvanise their efforts and address the increasing conflict over oil and its impact on the Country's living standards. Hybrids Cars provide a way to reduce the impact of the energy crisis, and if in the future other countries or international organizations fail to agree on acceptable solutions, the US will at least have the comfort of knowing it has done its part by furthering its investment in Hybrid Cars.
Finally then, a significant increase in the use of Hybrid cars in the United States would contribute to a noticeable reduction in its dependence on oil and therefore help alleviate the affect of the coming energy crisis. It should be noted however that the US has yet to show much economic benefit from the trend towards Hybrid Cars. Most popular Hybrid Cars on the American market come from Japanese manufacturers. This imbalance therefore needs to be addressed, in order not to substitute an energy imbalance with an economic one.

Lexus GS 450h Hybrid Extended Review : New Lexus hybrid cars 2009
Lexus GS 450h Hybrid Extended Review
by Thomas Jones
The first thing to realize about Lexus’s GS 450h hybrid is that the vehicle wasn’t solely designed to be a fuel-efficient hybrid. The fact of the matter is that as a Lexus, this line is expected to consistently develop more impressive and sophisticated vehicles, be it gas-powered or hybrid. This is no exception, as the GS 450h is still a high-performance vehicle, able to keep up with any other luxury sports car or sedan. As a result, car enthusiasts will always continue to enjoy and be comforted by driving such a smooth and valuable vehicle.Considering that Lexus is a name under Toyota, the technology in the GS 450h is just as up to date as is to be expected. The Hybrid Synergy Drive from Toyota is the technology that makes the acceleration much easier to achieve. Since the Drive technology can generate combined horsepower of 340, the GS 450h can rev and blaze down the road like any other sports sedan. The GS 450h handles like any other sports car, with being able to reach 60 mph in 5.2 seconds and then can come to a full stop from 60 mph in only 123 feet. At its top speed, the Lexus GS 450h has been recorded at 131 mph. Part of what makes that so possible is the Mark Levinson system and the CVT technology utilized in this Lexus vehicle. This beautiful vehicle runs quietly, smoothly, and with the top speeds for hybrid vehicles today. Amazingly, the Lexus GS 450h set out to bring together high-end performance vehicles with the eco-friendly necessities of the environment. And Lexus has succeeded in creating an elegant, chic, playful, smooth and luxurious vehicle has wins over other hybrid cars hands down. The handling itself of the vehicle is extremely precise, with a suspension system to match. A speed-sensing steering wheel and the double-wishbone suspension in the GS 450h create the precise handling you’ve come to expect from a Lexus. Fuel Efficiency and the Green Factor In 2007, Consumer Reports reviewed the GS 450h and it was determined that this vehicle was an overall success, ultimately quite reliable. Thanks to that report, people took note of Lexus’s hybrid sedan, looking at the environmental factors of the car. The EPA rated the gas mileage for the GS 450h at 22 mpg in the city, and 25 mpg on the highway. While not quite as good as Toyota’s Prius, the GS 450h is still better than its conventional counterpart. The difference really shines through in city driving, where the hybrid gets 22 mpg and the conventional only gets a paltry 19 mpg. The fuel-efficiency factor of the Lexus is easily accessible and obvious in the car’s design, inside and out. Most notably it is in the two electric motors that operate during specific situations in tandem or separately from the gas engine. This way, the ride you experience is a seamless transition from one form of energy to another, while silently reducing harmful emissions and lowering gasoline consumption. Another feature that has become a staple of the Toyota-brand hybrids is this regenerative braking technology that self-charges the integrated battery pack. When the brakes are activated, or even if the car is decelerating, the energy produced is converted into electrical energy, stored in the battery pack for later use. Additional Features The safety feature of the GS 450h are high-tech and near pre-cognitive when you need them. This hybrid utilizes a Pre-Collision radar system to detect oncoming vehicles. This way, even your vehicle can help you prevent collisions or incidences and in the event it can’t, prepare for oncoming trauma. In fact, the safety features are prominent from the moment you step into the vehicle. You may not notice at first, but the moment your foot is on the brakes, decelerating, you can feel the seatbelt retract and the brake assist is instantly activated. As far as active, not passive, safety systems, you would be hard-powered to find one as extensive as in the GS 450h. In the event of a crash, the hybrid is standard with dual-stage airbags in every location that would be able to protect you and your passengers in the event of a crash. The vehicle has airbags placed so that in the event of frontal impact, or other major collision incidences, everyone is protected on all fronts. There are several other safety features of the GS 450h, and not all of them have been mentioned. The fully colored backup camera, braking assist, and airbags have all been mentioned, but there is also an electronic traction control, child-care system, a rigid body structure to the vehicle, crumple zones, and anti-lock braking systems leave you feel well protected. The next question is the one of price, and be very aware that it is a hefty. At the base cost, expect to pay about $54,655. That cost is already $10,000 higher than a conventional gas-powered Lexus GS, but considering the car’s quality and brand, the price is nearly to be expected. After all, it is a Lexus, and the brand is known for expense, luxury and high-end quality. So, if you find yourself in a position that you can spend the money to purchase a Lexus GS 450h, the vehicle will last you quite a while and will be well worth every penny spent.
