Toyota Vios Car



















The Toyota Vios Introduced in 2003 is a 4-door subcompact sedan developed for the South East Asia and China markets. The Vios serves as a replacement of the Toyota Soluna which filled the Asian subcompact market for a 1.5 litre, below the Toyota Corolla and Toyota Camry, both of which are also marketed in the region. The Vios is marketed alongside the Toyota Yaris in most countries in South East Asia, which offered another option for a hatchback, when it officially entered the region's market in 2005. In the United States, the second generation Vios is known as the Toyota Belta or the Toyota Yaris hatchback.

The new Vios is essentially a re-badged Toyota Belta sedan, which launched in November 2005. The model code for cars with 1.5 liter 1NZ-FE engines is NCP93. The engine is only available where the Vios is marketed, including the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei and Thailand. As was the first generation Vios, the second generation Vios is assembled at Thailand's Toyota Gateway Plant and also at the Philippines Santa Rosa, Laguna Plant. In the United States, Canada and Australia it is marketed as the Yaris Sedan, replacing the Echo sedan, with production sourced from Japan.

The 2008 Vios has the tagline "My Design, My Pride" and currently has 4 grades: the base 1.3 J, with almost the same specs as to that of the J grade of the 2003 Vios, only that it had a 14" steel wheel with wheel cover, an all-new central analogue display, vinyl shift lever and knob, manual locks and windows and fabric seats. It is mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. The 1.3 E is the same as the J grade, only that it has 14" alloy wheels, Toyota Vehicle Security System, and driver-side SRS airbags. The 1.5 G has 3 options: G 4 A/T leather, G 4 A/T or G 5 M/T. It has a 1.5 1NZ-FE engine, leather seats for the leather sub-variant, 4-speed automatic transmission, 5-manual transmission and 2 SRS airbags. The 1.5 S Limited XX Edition was released in July 2008, and has almost no difference with that of the G variant, only that it had an electronic driver-side SRS airbags, front, side, and rear skirt and a spoiler. It still has the same wheel size, but the S grade has 10-spoke alloy wheels.

Toyota Tundra Car



















The Toyota Tundra prototypes introduced in May 1999 as a 2000 model, initially known as T150s. The Toyota Tundra is a full-size pickup truck sold by Toyota that originally went into production in 1999 (as a 2000 year model). The Tundra was built with an American look and feel and ultimately had something the T100 never did, a V8 engine option. The Tundra is assembled in Princeton, Indiana while the latest Tundra is assembled in San Antonio, Texas as well.

The first generation Tundra had many similarities with the old Toyota T100 and the smaller, more popular Toyota Tacoma. The biggest of those similarities was the shared use of a 3.4-liter V6 engine which was the top of the line engine in both the Tacoma and T100. These engines would serve as the base engine for the Tundra, while a second engine 4.7-liter V8 was added.

Toyota began selling a bolt-on supercharger kit for the 5.7-liter V8 Tundra during June 2008. Power output is increased to 504 hp (376 kW) and 550 pound-feet (750 N·m) of torque. When the installation is carried out by a Toyota dealership the existing warranty remains intact. This kit features Eaton's Twin Vortices Series supercharger which utilizes twin four-lobe rotors, a design shared with the newly introduced C6 ZR1 and CTS-V.

Hyundai Genesis Sedan Car



















Hyundai Genesis Concept sedan car introduced in March, 2007 was designed by Hyundai as a "progressive interpretation of the modern rear-wheel drive sports sedan". Hyundai conceived the idea for the Genesis in 2003. The body design took three years and the total cost of the program was $500 million over a development period of 23 months. Reliability testing ran for 800,000 miles.

The Hyundai Genesis V6 model has a starting price of $33,000, while the V8 model starts at US $38,000, including destination charge. According to Hyundai Motor America's current Genesis website, the US engines are projected to 290, and 375 hp for the 3.8L V6, and the 4.6L V8 respectively. Power in the 4.6L V8 drops to 368 hp when regular unleaded fuel is used. (As of April, the 3.3L V6 264 hp lineup has been dropped from coming into the United States. So there will be only two cars in the summer of 2008, and they are 3.8L V6 with 290 hp and 4.6L V8 with 375 hp).

The Genesis has received a number of well-recognized automobile awards worldwide. Most notably, the Genesis has been named 2009 North American Car of the Year, the first for Hyundai. It also won the 2009 Canadian Car of the Year (Best New Luxury Car under $50,000). The Hyundai's V8 Tau engine in the Genesis, which develops 375hp on premium fuel and 368hp on regular fuel, received 2009 Ward's 10 Best Engines award.

Subaru Baja






















The Subaru Baja is basically an Outback wagon with an open rear cargo bed. Outbacks and Baja have a raised suspension and SUV-flavored styling, but all these vehicles share a basic 4-dr design with standard all-wheel drive and horizontally opposed engines. Four-cylinder models come with manual transmission or optional automatic. A 6-cyl engine powers Outback H6 and VDC sedans, and H6 35th Anniversary, L.L. Bean, and VDC wagons. Exclusive to Baja is a new Turbo model with a turbocharged engine that boosts horsepower to 210, 45 more than the standard 4 cyl. Outbacks except the base and H6 35th Anniversary wagons. Baja is 6 inches longer overall than the Outback wagon, seats four instead of five, and comes with a bedliner. The wall separating cargo bed from cabin has a panel that folds to create a pass-through beneath the fixed rear window. Roof lights and a bed-extender cage are options.


The Subaru Baja was a light-utility, all-wheel-drive, four passenger, four-door crossover manufactured from 2003-2006 by Subaru. The Baja combined the handling and passenger carrying characteristics of a car with the open-bed versatility, and to a lesser degree, load capacity of a pickup truck. The unibody design borrowed heavily from existing mechanicals, platform and sheetmetal of the Legacy and Outback wagons. Production began on July 18, 2002 as a 2003 model at the Lafayette, Indiana, factory (Subaru of Indiana Automotive, Inc., aka SIA) once shared with Isuzu.

The Baja's concept recalls many similar car-based, open-bed vehicles:
* Subaru's earlier BRAT four-wheel-drive, unibody pickup marketed in the US from 1978-1987)
* Other small US-marketed unibody pickups: Volkswagen Caddy, Dodge Rampage/Plymouth Scamp
* The prominent US rear-wheel drive Ford Ranchero and Chevy El Camino
* the two and four-door vehicles of Australia, known as Utes
* much earlier American car-based pickup truck known as Coupe Utilities.

The Baja is named after Mexico's Baja California peninsula – home to the Baja 1000 off-road race.

Toyota Avanza






















Toyota Avanza is mini MPV produced in Indonesia and also assembled in Malaysia, with supervision from Toyota, who also sell the car under their Daihatsu brand. The car was launched at the Gaikindo Auto Expo in 2003 and sold over 100,000 units that year. The name "Avanza" was taken from the Italian word avanzato, which means "advance".

The Avanza is a new model develop as low premier MPV to split Toyota Kijang/Toyota Unser to 2 different models, another new model is the Toyota Innova which is higher spec and aimed at a higher market. Toyota Avanza is sold in Indonesia, Lebanon, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, South Africa and Mexico.

The Avanza was restyled near the end of the third quarter of 2006 with a new grille, new bumpers, a new interior, and new front and rear lamps. The 2006 model New Avanza S also has a new engine, a 1.5-litre 16-valve DOHC VVT-i gasoline engine (similar to the Toyota Rush) along with the new ABS braking system.

Subaru Outback



















The Subaru Outback is mounted on the same platform as the Subaru Legacy station wagon, we'll talk about later on, but unlike the family in a rather more robust appearance. Our protagonist has the bumpers and wheel arches much wider, rails on the roof, the capo more arched, side shields and, in some versions, Duotone body. On the outside highlights the dual exhaust outlet in parallel in this range in the Subaru Outback as the Subaru Legacy, which further underscores its athletic character. However, the most important asset of this "crossover" is not on the outside, but on the inside. Like all models in the Japanese brand, equips, serial, permanent wheel drive (AWD Simetrical called) and boxer engine (4-or 6-cylinder opposed). There are two mechanical gasoline, which assembles the new model. On the one hand, a 2.5 liter engine cylinder that develops 165 hp at 5600 rpm and, secondly, a mechanical 3 liters and 245 hp at 6,600 revolutions, both atmospheric. The smallest propellant can be associated with a manual gearbox and five-speed-reducing or an automatic four relationships. At the most powerful engine you can only attach an automatic five-speed.

The engine has a 3.0 R-ratio relationship between engine capacity and power of 81-hp / liter, among the highest of its class. The automatic gearbox is pleasant enough (four-speed in the 2.5iy five for the 3.0 R), both in its use as a sequential automatic mode. The function "kick down" low-change one or two marches to start climbing of revolutions faster, with the aim of getting more acceleration at a given time, it works to perfection. The recoveries of both propellants are remarkable, although it must be borne in mind that this is very powerful engines that offer more than acceptable numbers of torque. The 3.0 R Announces 30 mkg at 4,200 revolutions and offer their best data -245 CV-power at 6,600 rpm. His best moment comes at the top of cuentavueltas.

Hyundai Azera Photos Gallery



















The Hyundai Azera is a mid-size/full-size sedan manufactured and marketed globally by Hyundai Motor Company since model year 1986.

Hyundai claims 6.0 s to accelerate to 60 mph (97 km/h) and a top speed of 155 mph (250 km/h). Fuel economy of 19 mpg (12.4 L/100 km) in the city and 28 mpg (8.4 L/100 km) on the highway is expected. The 2.2 VGT CRDI diesel engine from the Santa Fe is available in Europe. And also 2.4 Theta and 2.7 Mu engines are available in South Korea. The Limited trim level adds 17 in alloy wheels, heated front seats, leather seat-upholstery, and a power sun shade in the rear window.
