Mercedes Benz New E-Class Coupé  


The signature radiator grille and twin-headlamps. The elegant, pillarless profile. The sculpted, powerful rear. From every angle, the new E-Class Coupé exudes energy confidence, and control.

The new E-Class Coupé is available in two exclusive model lines – the SE and Sport.
Elegant and understated, the SE’s distinctive exterior design touches include 17” multi-spoke alloy wheels and LED taillights. Inside, a tone-on-tone colour scheme uses light trim for the pillars and roof lining and a subtle contrast colour for the dash, steering wheel and gearshift lever.

Standard equipment includes heated front seats with electrical adjustment. Speedtronic cruise control, Advanced Parking Guidance and new Attention Assist are included for optimum safety and convenience.

The Sport offers more dynamic, aggressive looks with AMG bodystyling and 18” AMG wheels. The motorsport-inspired interior features an AMG 3-spoke steering wheel, floor mats with AMG lettering and sports pedals in brushed stainless steel.

For enhanced agility, the Sport comes with sports parameter steering, sports-tuned suspension and sports braking system as standard. The superb Dynamic Handling Package is available as standard on the E 500 Sport and optionally on all other engines.

Supreme efficiency

The E-Class Coupé offers a choice of two BlueEFFICIENCY diesel engines, combining exceptional driving dynamics with low fuel consumption and emissions.

The E 250 CDI is a new 4-cylinder unit that employs a range of technologies to streamline performance. Two-stage turbocharging ensures optimum efficiency and response, both at low and high speeds. Lanchester balancer shafts reduce engine vibration and noise. And 4th generation common-rail technology uses increased injection pressures of 2000 bar to maximise every drop of fuel.

The results are impressive, with the E 250 CDI manual achieving 52.3 mpg combined and doing 0 – 62 mph in 7.4 seconds. CO2 emissions are only 143 g/km, with Benefit in Kind of 19% and a 20% write down allowance.

For drivers who require even more power, the E-Class Coupé is available with a formidable V6 unit – the E 350 CDI – that delivers 231 hp and 540 Nm of rated torque. Yet despite powering the coupé from 0 – 62 mph in 6.7 seconds, the automatic version still achieves 45.6 mpg combined, with CO2 emissions of just 179 g/km.


Exterior - Feast your eyes

With its muscular haunches, pillarless side windows and long, low stance, the new E-Class Coupé simply demands to be driven.

Inspired styling elements include the distinctive V-shaped front end with its expressive twin headlamps and LED driving lights, which feature as standard on the Sport or as part of the optional Light Package on SE. A two-louvre radiator grille with prominent Mercedes star further enhances the car’s bold, assured presence.

Moving back along the car, a dramatic beltline accentuates the Coupé’s wedge-shaped profile. Flared rear wheel arches – a nod to the legendary Panton Mercedes - suggest poise, power and control.

At the rear, eye-catching details include a diffusor-look rear bumper nestling beneath distinctive LED taillights. Chrome twin-tailpipes – oval for V6 models, trapezoidal for the V8 – and 6-twin-spoke alloy wheels complete the car’s dynamic, sporty persona.

Interior - Impeccably finished

Blending sporty design with sumptuous finishes, the interior of the new E-Class Coupé echoes the car’s exquisite exterior styling.

Specially designed ergonomic seats with integral head restraints offer outstanding comfort and support without compromising on style. Automatic belt feeders provide maximum convenience and in the rear, passengers have individual seats.

Attention to detail is meticulous throughout and materials are of the highest quality. For example, the 3-spoke multi-function sports steering wheel is finished in Nappa leather and features a matt chrome inlay. 12 buttons on the steering wheel enable safe, easy operation of various functions. Drivers also benefit from an integrated 5.8-inch colour display and ergonomic control in the centre console.

Other highlights include an aircraft-inspired instrument cluster with five tubular dials and trim elements in brushed aluminium (standard on SE and Sport) or optional wood.

Subaru Exiga  


The Subaru Exiga is a new large MPV that debuted as a concept car during the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show. According to the Japanese Subaru press introduction materials, the name "Exiga" is a neologism combination of the words "exciting" and "active". The vehicle boasts a supersize panoramic glass roof and theater-style seating, with rear passengers sitting a little higher than those in front. Seats in the concept vehicle were upholstered in leather and trimmed in pearl white and blue. The rear seatbacks incorporate fold-down tray tables, similar to those on airplanes.

The instrument panel in the concept vehicle offered displays from eight monitors, providing excellent visibility around the vehicle, and also housed a clear blue multi-display zone. There continues to be indirect lighting in the side doors and ceiling in the production vehicle, providing soft ambient light at night. The engine is a 1994 cc turbocharged H4 based on the Subaru Impreza WRX coupled to Subaru's 5EAT automatic transmission used in the Subaru Legacy and Subaru Tribeca.

According to an article from Autoblog , Subaru is planning to introduce a seven seat wagon in the Japanese market June 18, 2008. The Subaru Exiga isn't sold in North America, opting to sell the similarly-sized Subaru Tribeca 7-seater instead. The Australian version will be powered by a revised version of Subaru’s naturally aspirated four-cylinder 2.5-litre Boxer engine. That engine will make its debut on the new Liberty/Outback range in September.

Subaru spokesman David Rowley says diesel and turbocharged versions of the people-mover are not on the cards at this stage, although the maker will “watch with interest” the sales performance of the diesel Outback due in November. The Exiga is available with a turbocharged four-cylinder in Japan. The Exiga will be available in two trim levels, with the base model getting a standard DVD entertainment system for its second and third row seats. Subaru is not revealing any more details at this stage, although the second row of seats will be “captain’s chairs” with individual armrests and a centre console with cup holders. The third row seats can be stowed away. Rowley says the six-seat layout provides a point of difference to other people-movers, which typically have seven or eight seats.

Mitsubishi Eclipse  

The 2010 Mitsubishi Eclipse appears to mix styling elements. Depending on how you see it, you might gauge the styling as busy or unique. To Motor Trend, the front end looks like a "gaping maw" but is "offset by fluid curves." While most convertible versions of cars are manufactured from the hardtop version, Popular Mechanics notes that the "open-top version was engineered to be topless from inception," meaning that its proportions look right top up or top down.

The tight, cockpit-focused interior styling can also be rather polarizing, both conceptually and functionally. Motor Trend comments, "the roof, dash, and door panels seem shrink-wrapped around you." Edmunds praises the "unusual details such as door releases shaped like flip phones." The Mitsubishi Eclipse is a sporty two door, four-seat coupe with good looks and a roomy interior. It appeals to a large audience with its youthful looks and affordable price.

The Eclipse has three trims: GS, GS-Sport, and GT. Power is delivered by a 162-hp 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine paired with either a five-speed manual transmission or four-speed automatic with manual shift mode. A 265-hp 3.8-liter V6 engine powers the GT and comes with a six-speed manual or a five-speed automatic. Standard safety features include vehicle stability control with traction control, frontal-impact, side-impact and side curtain airbags, anti-lock brakes, and a tire pressure monitoring system. For 2010, Mitsubishi has enhanced the GS model with styling cues from the GT trim. Also, Bluetooth, rear view camera, and auxiliary input jack are available.

2009 Audi TT/TTS  



As spectacular as it looks, it’s even more spectacular to drive.

The TT is a culmination of visionary design ideas. Short overhangs at the front and rear and a broad track. Impressive looks, an impressive stance. The TT is a sports car with a captivating design. A design that makes the concept of sportiness tangible. And it all starts with its lines. The TT’s character was clear right from the fi rst design study. The roofl ine spans the fl at passenger compartment and fl ows gracefully into the TT’s powerful shoulder line. To this we added a wide track, fl ared wheel arches, and signature single-frame grille. The result is a form so distinctive it is impossible to forget.



The TT is not about getting the details right.Rata Penuh
It’s about getting them perfect. It’s a philosophy that we applied to every element of the TT’s design, including available bi-xenon adaptive headlights that combine intensity and dynamic ability to help you see around the next corner*. These headlights use gas-discharge lamps
that are electronically controlled. The result is a bright arc that serves as an excellent
light source to illuminate the road.



Top up or top down, the Audi TT Roadster is a pure thrill to drive.
The short overhangs at the front and rear, the twin tailpipes and a wide track make it immediately obvious that the TT Roadster is the epitome of driving excitement. The highlight is Audi Magnetic Ride, the optional suspension damping technology that allows drivers to choose between an uncompromising sport ride and the more comfort-oriented characteristics. And with a fully automated top that retracts completely, it’s clear the experience of the TT Roadster is pure pleasure.



A pure predator when it hits the road.
The TTS builds on the innovations of the TT with enhanced power. The top of the TT family has TFSI direct injection technology delivering thrills at 265 hp. Combined with sport biased quattro all-wheel drive, this delivers greater agility and exceptional control. Two fi nely tuned twin tailpipes deliver the distinctive sounds of the undeniably athletic TTS attitude. 18 or 19-inch alloy wheels will not only turn heads, but do an exceptional job of matching the performance-bred nature of the TTS.



Refined, no matter how you look at it.
The TTS proudly resonates with S specifi c design both inside and out. The exclusive TTS badge emphasizes the signature radiator grille, front brake calipers and sleek tail-shape. Internally, TTS upgrades deliver a sensory treat with gray dials and a white TTS-specifi c needle design, lap timer, dynamic needle function, driver info system and ergonomically optimized S tronic TTS gear knob. The interior trim surfaces are extended with aluminum S specifi c brushed appearance and TTS badged steering wheel. Now look under the hood and you’ll fi nd a powerful 2.0 TFSI 265 hp motor that is also extremely effi cient. When combined with quattro, Audi Magnetic Ride, and our sport suspension, it all adds up to unmatched handling and performance. It’s clear that the new TTS embodies striking design and a sporting driving experience, with redefi ned performance serving as only the beginning of this sports car’s seductive prowess.



An unparalleled experience on the road, courtesy of quattro.
The Audi TT is the only sports car in its class with permanent all-wheel drive. The Audi quattro permanent all-wheel drive system transfers power from front to back and side to side as needed. For the driver this means: increased traction, improved driving stability, and high levels of active safety and improved traction on virtually all surfaces. The result: pure driving pleasure every day. For 2009, quattro all-wheel drive is available on the 2.0 TFSI model.



Propelled by technology that makes it the pure essence of power.

Only Audi engineers could develop the incredible combination of innovative technologies that defi ne the new Audi TT. A future forward package so refi ned and optimized it will change your expectations of a sports car. Audi Magnetic Ride is a revolutionary suspension system that adapts suspension damping automatically and continuously to the actual driving situation. The changes take place in a fraction of a second, depending on road conditions and how the car is being driven at that moment. This means a noticeable gain in driving dynamics and ride comfort. The driver can choose between two basic settings, “Standard” and “Sport”. Audi Magnetic Ride adjusts the suspension to every driving situation.



Innovation is at the very root of its extraordinary performance.

Pajero Sport is powered by an intercooler-turbocharged 4M41-type 3.2-liter diesel unit using a vibration- and noise-reducing common rail direct injection system. The power unit produces maxima of 120 kW (163 PS) / 3500 rpm and 343 Nm (35.0 kg-m) / 2000 rpm.

Common rail fuel injection system . The common rail direct fuel injection system uses a tube that branches to supply ECU-controlled injector valves which each feed fuel into individual cylinders. The extremely high injection pressures used ensure very high combustion efficiency, thereby reducing NOx emissions and the noise and vibration typically associated with traditional diesel engines.

Pajero Sport comes with a 4-speed Sport Mode automatic transmission or a 5-speed manual gearbox. The model uses Mitsubishi Motors’ All Wheel Control-inspired Super Select 4WD driveline, which enjoys high acclaim for its reliability and go-anywhere capability.
