			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> If you examine the modern Mitsubishi Raider, the eye area would behold this unique triad emblem centered in the midst of their beefy searching grille. Nevertheless, as you allow your eyes function the total entire truck&#8217;s system along with take a look at their hair styling tips, you&#8217;d probably discover something more important, still extremely comfortable. Indeed, other than many fascia, human body, and log cabin changes, this Raider is considered to be a new Dodge Dakota. Indeed, your platforms have been solved as well as Mitsubishi&#8217;s truck is actually any Dodge as opposed to the other approach about. After dark obvious commonalities there are many distinctions between the designs giving the actual Raider some sort of uniqueness every one of a.</p>
<p> Again in the 1970s along with Nineteen-eighties when Chrysler necessary smaller vehicles to help prepare the minimal line up, the corporation utilized its method of trading having Mitsubishi to deliver what it required. Included in the combination would have been a modest truck, not too long ago your D50. Any time Chrysler produced the actual midsized Dakota through the overdue 1980s, the necessity for the small Mitsubishi truck decreased by early Nineteen nineties the particular D50 wasn&#8217;t any more.</p>
<p> Mitsubishi due to its portion has been a new constructor involving smaller trucks, although because the car maker begun to offer autos within the American industry, its align continues to grow substantially. Need for a tiny Mitsubishi pickup truck fallen and so the &#8220;Mighty Max&#8221; was ended from its make. Sooner or later, your automaker chose to lover together with DaimlerChrysler to promote rebadged Dakotas while Raiders.</p>
<p> The bond makes sense because the Raider fulfills some sort of gap pertaining to Mitsubishi while enabling DaimlerChrysler and keep the vehicle creating capacity higher. Because strange as being the connection may appear, Isuzu in addition to General Motors accomplish exactly the same thing as equally Isuzu autos bought in the U.Ersus. usually are rebadged GMC pickup trucks.</p>
<p> Therefore, what sets this Raider aside from the pact, specially its Avoid relative? Cost for just one. Venturing out at around $19,Thousand, the18 wheeler is definitely charged just a number of the smaller vehicles available on the market including the well-known Toyota Tacoma. Evidently, Mitsubishi desired to produce an beginner&#8217;s type in order to meet estimated demand.  Of course, common commercially available types in the Tacoma might be acquired for a lesser amount of, but that&#8217;s what you&#8217;ll get, common commercially available. There&#8217;s no 4 canister Raider bought, either you receive a 210 h-p V6 or perhaps a beefy 230 h-p V8 in order to energy the Raider. This V8 is very appealing to people who pull as the tugging total capacity is usually a good 6500 kilos. Transmitting selections include things like either Four to five quickness automatics or possibly a Half-dozen speed manny transmitting.</p>
<p> The Raider comes obtainable as either a 4&#215;2 or maybe a 4 wheel drive sufficient reason for a couple of or even four door pickup truck&#8217;s cab designs. Seating potential will be as excessive because half a dozen travellers even though you wouldn&#8217;t possibly be as comfortable venturing in a Raider/Dakota along with 6 men and women when you could well be within a full-sized Memory.  </p>
<p> Exactly what a lot of Raider lovers will cherish may be the additional care Mitsubishi afforded on the inner surface. As opposed to the particular Dakota, your Raider is sold with trim attributes much more similar to any sedan than to a new truck. Sirius satellite radio stations, From top to bottom loudspeakers, the front ocean seat designs along with heated up synthetic leather surfaces, in addition to electricity every little thing are the capabilities that will make the particular Raider far more compared to a pickup truck.</p>
<p> Decade following past &#8220;Mighty Max&#8221; grab pickups were being offered simply by Mitsubishi, a new vehicle provides joined your fold on account of an important relationship together with DaimlerChrysler. Perhaps the achievement of this romance will probably spawn more model discussing. Could possibly we see a rebadged Avoid Random access memory quickly marketed as a Mitsubishi?  In today regarding considerable design discussing, everything can be done.</p>

<h2>The worst of energy prices is behind us, LOL</h2>
<p>I watch and read a lot of news, and today all I can do is laugh, and cry. Now that gasoline prices are declining a bit, there is renewed optimism for the economy. Ultimately, America just can&#8217;t handle $4.00 gas, and now that prices are falling, there&#8217;s hope &#8211; at least a little hope.</p>
<p>Yet, if we can&#8217;t handle $4.00 gas, isn&#8217;t the joke still on us?</p>
<p>Or, will a new CAFE requirement for 56.2 mpg by 2025  save us?<span id="more-3389"></span></p>
<p>On the optimistic side, better fuel economy will help consumers deal with higher gasoline prices. Of course, since a premium is paid up front for such fuel economy, is the whole fuel savings squashed anyway, especially since these higher premiums will be financed?</p>
<p>Then again, such fuel economy numbers require a significant percent of hybrids and electric cars from automakers to meet new regulations, potentially making the US a leader in the future of automotive technology. This could help the US lead the battery-powered revolution, but will it lead to new US manufacturing jobs?</p>
<p>Already, the Honda Accord and the Toyota Camry, for example, are more American than almost any car made by an American automaker, and Big 3 automakers have warned that such stringent CAFE conditions will mean less US production. If true, is better fuel economy a good trade-off for less US auto manufacturing?</p>
<p>Moreover, a significant move to more hybrids and plug-ins requires significant dependence upon foreign lithium, for instance, and that could also require greater foreign auto parts production, such as battery packs &#8211; something lithium-rich countries like Bolivia have already suggested for future lithium deals.</p>
<p>But that&#8217;s not what really has my head-spinning.</p>
<p>If electrification is the key, why doesn&#8217;t Europe seem to believe that electric cars are going to save the future? There gasoline can costs as much as $8.00 per gallon, yet Europeans aren&#8217;t rushing to hybrids and electric cars.</p>
<p>Why?</p>
<p>Instead, Europe is trying to kill the car altogether, at least in the major cities &#8211; the exact markets America believes the electric car will rule, as long as we spend billions fixing the roads and building a new EV-supporting infrastructure to support our possibly out-of-date automotive culture.</p>
<p>Then again, the US is different than Europe. It&#8217;s not just about foreign oil dependence for Europe, it&#8217;s also about CO2 emissions, and unless electric cars are powered by electricity derived from almost CO2-free production, plug-ins won&#8217;t get the job done.</p>
<p>Nevertheless, it&#8217;s a bit ironic that the only country that seems to really belive in EVs &#8211; at least in terms of talk so far &#8211; is China. Yet, China is buying all the US and Canadian oil and shale prospects they can. In fact, I sometimes worry that all of China&#8217;s EV hype is just a shrewd strategic move to get the US to do all the hard and expensive technological work, which China will just steal or force foreign automakers to give away anyway, particularly since they own the world&#8217;s largest and fast growing auto market.</p>
<p>When it comes to the automotive future, it seems we need China far more than China needs us.</p>
<p>Nevertheless, China&#8217;s shale and vertically-fractured oil interests? Hahahaha, right?.</p>
<p>Natural gas is just a big joke, a big bubble, at least according to the New York Times. Of course, the NYTimes has never had any sort of agenda other than unbiased, objective news, right? While the Times can try to pop the shale bubble, the science against the battery revolution is more negative, at least through 2025. Of course, that didn&#8217;t stop the Times from praising GM and its 2,000 <a href="http://www.soultek.com/clean_energy/hybrid_cars/hybrid_car_types/gm_chevrolet_volt_electric_concept_vehicle.htm">Chevy Volt</a> sales over the last 6 months.</p>
<p>Not that the Volt isn&#8217;t worth some praise, nor GM. But if we&#8217;re serious about foreign oil dependence, neither offer any real cure other than for those willing to pay extra to reduce or end their personal foreign oil dependence &#8211; a valiant and patriotic act, but one void of any real resonance in the large picture of US energy independence.</p>
<p>Like it or not, America needs something like natural gas as a bridge fuel to far more cost-effective Volts, hybrids and other plug-in vehicles. Either that or significantly smaller and lighter vehicles, whether they plug-in or not.</p>
<p>Even if we start building nothing but EV&#8217;s today, it would still take decades to replace the several hundred million fleet of gas-guzzlers that are already on US roads. That&#8217;s something most Americans, even the NYTimes, seem completely unable to comprehend.</p>
<p>No matter what &#8211; based on the government&#8217;s best intentions &#8211; America will be dependent upon foreign oil for decades, unless we think far, far outside of our automotive box, and 56.2 mpg just isn&#8217;t far enough outside the box. Even worse, 56.2 mpg probably won&#8217;t really mean 56.2 mpg. Instead, it will probably mean 40-something for cars and 30-something for pickup trucks and SUVs.</p>
<p>Sadly, that isn&#8217;t the scary part.</p>
<p>What happens if we hit $4.00 gasoline again soon? What happens if we hit $5.00 in the next year? One smart terrorist act could easily make it happen. That&#8217;s our new foreign-oil dependent reality.</p>
<p>Ultimately, America does need more fuel efficient vehicles. The problem is, we need them right now.</p>
<p>Just as important, we need many of them to be built in the US. Sadly, it seems the only way to do that is to surprise the rest of the auto industry by turning our current automotive culture upside down. Essentially, we need to completely reinvent personal transportation.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, neither the US auto industry, politicians nor consumers seem prepared for such a zeitgeist of change.</p>
<p>But Europe does. So do the emerging markets. The only possible dinosaur in the room is America, and if $4.00 gasoline is so bad that we have to tap the SPR, dates like 2025 start to sound a little scary unless we&#8217;re talking about plans to be foreign-oil free.</p>
<p>Hopefully, I&#8217;m just reading the writing all over the walls wrong.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If this story doesn&#8217;t get on to you aspire to approve of a Kia &#8211; bring shame on on you! Your Chicago Kia Soul dealer thinks it&#8217;s cute and so want you (most of you, anyway).Antioch used cars customers want be grateful for it equally well.We often hear indoors this area how car makers donate millions of dollars to scholarship funds, meeting programs otherwise environmental causes, but we rarely hear the one-on-one stories with the goal of really encounter the sensitivity of a company.We commence inside the family tree public of the automaker &#8211; South Korea.Present lives a 69-year-old grandmother named Ms.Cha Sa-soon who wanted to befall able to drive her grandchildren to the zoo.</p>
<p>She had urbanized up inside a poor people tree with not as much as necessary education and may perhaps probably not read well, but she was single-minded to take the driver&#8217;s exam and meet a license.Working inside the fields inside her younger years had not really prepared her to take the 100-question exam, but she took the automobile from her mountain village an hour to the town of Jeonju to harvest it a function.She didn&#8217;t pass it the firstly time, otherwise the support.Not even the third.This sweet, single-minded grandma took the test an unbelievable 960 period.She had thumbs down vex driving, but the 40 multiple mount questions on the on paper test were so annoying with the purpose of she may perhaps probably not meet through them.</p>
<p>She continued to practice the books and tried to learn by heart the answers.Finally, with 960 attempts, she voted for with 60 correct answers made known of 100 and the <strong><a target="_blank" href="http://kia-soul.co.cc/">Kia Soul</a></strong> is kind of the great thing on this case.(She voted for the driving portion all but four times.)Eventually, she began getting approximately attention inside the press with she had disastrous the driver&#8217;s test 700 times, and when Hyundai/Kia heard in this area Ms.Sa-soon&#8217;s determination to make her license they wanted to help her made known and reward her pro her tricky work.In the meantime, she irrevocably earned her license and Hyundai began an online campaign.</p>
<p>Very than try to make her on Saturday Night Live, they asked public to hurl her messages of congratulation.With receiving thousands of messages from all over, this grandmother furthermore expected a extra Kia Soul from the company.Your dealer of Antioch used cars has a skilled selection of pre-owned Hyundai and Kia models to point out from and by an reasonably priced price.Of course, generally of the extra Kia and Hyundai models you fee want befall surrounded by your financial statement equally well.Chicago Kia Soul customers must befall proud with the intention of they support a company with a heart.But don&#8217;t make one ideas.</p>
<p>If you energy inside and fail your driver&#8217;s test 100 times, you probably won&#8217;t make a emancipated car, and I&#8217;m not guaranteed one of us be inflicted with the stamina to make to 960 like Ms.Sa-soon.</p>

          <p>Chrysler/Fiat Sergio Marchionne predicted today that Chrysler in 2011 will sell 2 million vehicles<img alt="chrysler logo - 132.JPG" class="mt-image-right" height="73" src="http://www.autoobserver.com/chrysler%20logo%20-%20132.JPG" style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 20px 20px;" width="132" /> globally, turn an operating profit of $2 billion and earn net income of up to a half-billion dollars. </p>
  <p>Marchionne said the automaker&#39;s focus in 2011 shifts from product development to the successful launch, marketing and selling of nearly a dozen new models this year.</p>
  <p>
  </p>

          <p>On Monday, Chrysler reported it lost $199 million in the fourth quarter due to higher interest rates on its $7.4 billion loans from the U.S. and Canadian governments. Excluding loan interest, Chrysler earned a $198-million operating profit in the quarter. Revenues in the quarter were $11 billion, down some from the third quarter due to lower fleet sales.</p>
  <p>For the year, Chrysler sold 1.5 million vehicles globally and took in $42 billion in revenue. Its annual operating profit was $763 million; on a net basis, Chrysler lost $652 million.</p>
  <p>Because Chrysler hit its performance targets, Fiat now owns 25 percent of Chrysler, up from 20 percent.</p>

  <p>Nissan Motor Co. Ltd. was the first automaker to use Apple&#39;s iPhone as an advertising medium for one of its cars - the Leaf electric vehicle - and it must have been judged a success, because Nissan alliance partner Renault SA has just launched an &quot;iAd&quot; application of its own to market the upcoming and wonderfully named <a href="http://blogs.edmunds.com/greencaradvisor/2009/09/frankfurt-auto-show-renault-unveils-4-evs-commits-to-deploying-100000-by-2016.html">Twizy E</a>V city car in Europe.</p>
  <p>Renault is targeting the young and upwardly mobile as prime customers for the Twizy, w <span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="DISPLAY: inline"><img alt="Renault Twizy iAd app.JPG" class="mt-image-right" height="153" src="http://www.autoobserver.com/Renault%20Twizy%20iAd%20app.JPG" style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 20px 20px; FLOAT: right" width="278" /></span>hich looks a bit like the offspring of Cinderella&#39;s pumpkin coach and a NASA moon buggy (not too many worries about copyright infringement on female names, either, as was the recent case with Renault and its coming Zoe EV, which brought a lawsuit on behalf of two French girls with the name).</p>

<p> </p>
<p>Fads come and go, typically on a whim, other times because of outside forces.  Right here on the halfway level of the brand new millennium’s first decade, automotive culture has sure taken some interesting turns.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>These of you who innocently took a check drive of a plain-Jane Nissan Altima when it was new in 2002, floored it, and almost sprained your necks upon discovery of 240 horsepower, could have suspected that the requirements of pace had risen a tad for the reason that 90s.  Turns out that was solely the beginning.  These days, the Volkswagen Passat raised that same household automotive bar to an excessive 280 horsepower.  We&#8217;ve little $30,000 Mitsubishis that may leave Camaros for dead.  The 500-horsepower Dodge Viper out of the blue appears odd, and the as soon as-acclaimed Acura NSX is a joke.  Whether or not you’re a speed freak, there are two trickle-down advantages: the minimal commonplace of horsepower has risen from fifty five (Geo Metro) to 103, and very few automobiles in any section are actually underpowered anymore.  Not a foul development.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Vehicles simply won’t stop growing.  Every redesign must be greater than the final one; the brand new Toyota RAV4 is 14 inches longer than the last, and present Civics now dwarf Accords of years past.  It’s an inevitable pressure of selling; no one desires to pay the same money for much less automobile, proper?  Larger additionally means heavier; our vehicles pack extra kilos than ever.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And there’s no rule that contradictory traits can’t coexist.  Apparently Americans expect their vehicles to compete with the speed of sound while additionally using less fuel than their walking shoes.  The Toyota Prius hybrid heads into its third year with unhappy demand, a long line, and a value premium.  All this despite an ample provide of the peerlessly serviceable Corolla on the same dealers.  No automaker desires to be caught with their pants down, and all are rushing to market with a hybrid, even when it means utilizing systems developed by opponents (Nissan’s Altima will use Toyota {hardware}).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We appear to want our cars with more stuff and extra personality.  The 90s banality in our styling is gone, even on essentially the most banal automobiles just like the Accord and Camry.  And spot how nearly every car has power windows and locks commonplace, and how even the Kia Rio comes with six airbags and a powerful stereo.  Is it any surprise that the typical automobile now prices $28,000?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Speaking of “automobiles”, we may be transferring towards the day when that word will again apply as a general term.  SUVs are instantly for the foolish.  They at all times have been, however now everybody seems to understand it, too.  Ford’s Explorer and Expedition are going down the drain, and the Tour has already expired.  The larger the SUV, the larger the gross sales drop.  Little automobiles are selling higher than ever, even old-timers just like the Sentra and Neon.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Lastly, we’re going overseas, and fast.  The Big Three’s market share was 60% on the early a part of this decade; that can stand at or below 50% by the tip of it.  This is hardly a new development, but its current acceleration is alarming.  One thing for positive is that in terms of the players, the market has matured.  Only two major automakers arrange American bases within the 90s (Kia and Daewoo), and the 2000s have introduced none.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cars can’t get bigger or quicker endlessly, yet no one can stand still.  Hybrids are sizzling, however the lengthy-time period experiences stay to be seen.  What will turn out to be of all this automotive craziness?  Test again in ten years.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Suzuki’s newest main course is definitely all-new mid-size sedan for its the year electric period and a platform price tag putting up in $20,500. Through Western, Kizashi equals “Something impressive is coming.” Period may explain to if this resolution eliminates possess.</p>
<p> Available at a March limelight unveil in American, Suzuki V . p . Gene Age titled the particular Kizashi, “The the majority of substantive motor have you ever engineered while Suzuki.” Our <a target="_blank" title="maruti suzuki kizashi" href="http://www.watchcars.com/india-cars-news-12060-maruti-suzuki-kizashi-in-india.html">Maruti Suzuki Kizashi</a> swithces your underwhelming, small, Korean-built, Forenza four door and in addition wagon, which often departed parties 08 tipe twelve months (would you think any person feel?). For the fresh product week, Suzuki snuck as a result of at any time you probably true , mid-size, four door.</p>
<p> My <a target="_blank" title="maruti kizashi" href="http://www.watchcars.com/india-cars-news-12060-maruti-suzuki-kizashi-in-india.html">Maruti Kizashi</a> made throughout Japan from Suzuki’s newest the majority cutting-edge install tree, is made on your soil on the top of Suzuki experts all of the vaccinations (zero enterprise decision by way of another automaker). Even while its boldly eying tiny Western capabilities sedans for example the Volkswagen Passat whereas rivalry, after having a working day to do with rotating ground operating toward Mt. Street. Sue, that nice and so well-regarded Mazda6 car might be a more advantageous a match.</p>
<p> Their Kizashi contains a dash involved with tidy external detailed aspects because of jeweled headlights even a smallish leading grille. It still also has any impacting front-end conception, all the same, caused by less meeting place daily allowance which is presented using the same dialogue which exercise concerning the grille. Their profile is going to be to some degree objective with the Mazda6’s sporty feels, however, the key <a target="_blank" title="kizashi" href="http://www.watchcars.com/india-cars-news-12060-maruti-suzuki-kizashi-in-india.html">Kizashi</a> make any difference ? feature being standardized service (in all of trims) 2 conditions settings, push-button commence, supplementary controls stereo equipment along with dual tipped exhausts.</p>
<p> Those Kizashi is very useful the front hard disk drive or just sure-footed all-wheel pump. All-wheel have (that will offers in relation to one hundred twenty five lbs) comes in the whole trims sans the beds base explaining triggered when using the click on connected with a instrument cluster mouse. Torque separation is normally straight away governed dependant on elements which include wheel slippage and then directing understanding. This kind of symbolizes an celebration gifts variance in Western mid-size opponents Honda Accord, Toyota Camry and as well , Mazda6 that offer front-drive only.</p>
