TURBO SPEED CAR

A major problem in GM's planning is Russia, which was predicted to overtake Germany as the largest European market in the near future. Automotive sales in the Russian market plummeted by 50% last year to 1.45 million in 2009.

Autofacts, a division of PriceWatwerhouseCoopers, explains, "The financial crisis has underlined many structural weaknesses that will likely impact the future trajectory of the market."

Here's what the analysts have to say:

Walt Madeira (CSM Worldwide):
"I would think 425,000 this year is going to be difficult. Anything above 375,000 I would say is very good, but they will be hard-pressed to do even that. Long term, I would say 600,000 by 2015 or 2016 is more likely."

"The [Russian] scrapping program is aimed to help Russian manufacturers like Lada. Chevrolet's sales projections assume a recovery in Russia. If it was a three million market, they might end up selling 300,000 or 350,000 but that doesn't seem to be the case. Russia doesn't look like it's recovering as fast as China, Brazil or India."

Professor Ferdinand Dudenhoeffer (Center for Automotive Research, University of Duisberg-Essen):
"Do they have better models? No way because VW, Nissan-Renault, Kia-Hyundai, Fiat and many others have far better sales. Do they have a specific advantage in technology? It's just GM. Do they have better cost structures? No way...In a few years Chinese brands like BYD and Geely will be in Europe. They will increase sales by chasing Chevy drivers. The brand is very weak."

Jonathon Poskitt (J.D. Power and Associates):
"As Russia does make progress, Chevrolet will, of course, benefit from its significant presence there. There is room for Chevrolet to increase brand awareness in Europe and it will be helped by building on a solid portfolio of models and by entering new segments...I see Chevrolet competing more with the likes of Hyundai/Kia, Fiat, Suzuki, Mitsubishi, etc. than Opel."

Chevrolet's European range currently includes the new Spark city car, the Aveo supermini, the subcompact Lacetti, the Epica sedan, the Captiva SUV and the new Cruze sedan.

Within the next two years, GM will enhance the firm's line-up with the next-generation Aveo, the Orlando MPV and the Camaro which will be Chevy's halo car.

The 12C (as they refer to it) packs a mid-mounted 3.8 liter V8, developed in-house by McLaren. Thanks to the twin turbos, it develops 600-horsepower and 443 lb-ft of torque.

According to the McLaren, the supercar is capable of reaching 100km/h (62mph) in less than 3,0 seconds and 200 km/h (124mph) in under 10 seconds while completing the quarter mile in around 11 seconds and reaching a top speed in excess of 200mph or 322km/h.

In comparison, the Ferrari 458 Italia hits the 100km/h marque in 3.4 seconds and achieves a top sped of 325km/h (202 mph) while the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 goes from 0 to 100km/h in 3.7 sec and to 200km/h in 11.8 sec, and tops out at 325 km/h (202 mph).

While we'll have to wait until later this year for a lock on pricing (McLaren is claiming a range of £125,000-175,000), company reps had this to say about the future 911-fighter's litheness:

"Reducing weight is an obsession at McLaren...Recent developments have lowered the MonoCell's [the one-piece moulded carbon-fibre chassis] weight further to below 80 kg, whilst continued lightweight engineering supports McLaren Automotive's plans to launch the 12C at a lighter dry weight than any competitor at around 1,300 kg [2,867 lbs]."

Just to get the point across, McLaren was kind enough to list the other ways their car is slimmer than anyone else's:

* Standard composite brake system of forged aluminium and cast iron is lighter than the optional carbon-ceramic brake system, saving five kilos
* Low-weight Lithium-Ion battery saves 10kgs
* Lightweight magnesium structural beam supports the dashboard
* Small, twin-turbocharged V8 engine delivers 600PS from 3.8-litre capacity
* Rear mounted engine cooling radiators minimize the pipework, the fluids contained within them, and therefore weight. They were also mounted in car line to minimize vehicle width and weight.
* Hexagonal aluminium wiring saves four kilos over circular wiring.

When the extremely light, high-output, and supercar fast MP4-12C goes on sale next year, it will be at unique McLaren dealerships in 19 countries around the world.

Until then, enjoy the comprehensive photo gallery of the new McLaren that includes shots from this week's presentation.
 Set to be let loose upon the public come Spring 2011, McLaren Automotive's MP4-12C has a lot to live up to. In order to make sure attention hasn't been waning, McLaren recently had the car's public unveiling at its HQ in Woking, England, where the maker released more details on the MP4-12C including the supercar's performance stats.

Maintenance schedule The manufacturer’s recommended maintenance schedule for these vehicles is as described below – note that the schedule starts from the vehicle’s date of registration. These are the minimum maintenance intervals recommended by the factory for Mondeos driven daily, but subjected only to “normal” use. If you wish to keep your vehicle in peak condition at all times, you may wish to perform some of these procedures even more often.

If your usage is not “normal”, shorter intervals are also recommended – the most important examples of these are noted in the schedule……….download for more story
