REVIEW 2011 ACURA TL

Add caption
With the new 2011 Acura TL, Acura set out to create a vehicle with all-new exterior design is more toned, athletic and powerful than ever. Enthusiastic drivers appreciate the previous generation TL for high dynamic capabilities-it is true that car drivers compete against the best near-luxury sedan. These enthusiasts are increasingly looking for more dynamic improvement and ability, and emotional styling.
With a 2011 acura TL using a sharp, taut lines instead of sweeping curves, satin trim in key areas, rather than bright chrome, and driver-oriented layout makes driving more attractive. After several years of high-profile military involvement abroad and the stagnant economy and rising unemployment at home again, one thing is clear: There is no stopping the sale of entry-level luxury sedan.
Infact, the business has picked up for companies like Audi, BMW, Lexus and Mercedes during this period. Meanwhile, the steady procession of new arrivals such as the Cadillac CTS, Infiniti G35 and the Volkswagen Passat W8 have made it one of the most competitive vehicle segment, as manufacturers scramble to compete with one another in terms of features, driving dynamics and upscale cabin furnishings.2011 Acura TL has never been to own a car in the segment of entry-level luxury sedan, but we always counted among our favorites. Especially in the Type-S form, offering consumers a compelling content mix of performance, luxury and value. Sure, it's not fun to drive as a BMW or Audi, or as opulently furnished as one, but with the full price under $ 30,000 for the regular TL and right around $ 34k for the Type-S, it does not 't need to. Acura had no trouble selling upwards of 60,000 TLs annually - second only to the 3 Series in the price range up to the Lexus ES 300 sliding past it last year.However, the company knew that it was losing customers who really want a bona fide sport sedan and / or a true luxury experience filled with upscale materials and all the comfort and safety of the introduction of the latest features.With 2011 acura TL, Acura will make a serious bid for those customers. The value is still in the picture, because the company will stick to its practice offering a complete vehicle at competitive prices with short options lists.
 
But the TSX is very desirable now available for buyers who want something (relatively) affordable and compact, this TL does not have to cover as much ground.Gone are the basic and Type-S difference in favor of a 270-horsepower TL available with a choice of manual or automatic transmission and priced around $ 34,000.Inside, there are features of almost every want in an entry-luxury sedan comes standard, while the overall design and materials used do not give in to Europe. Apart from feeling like a smart financial choice in the over-$ 30K bracket, this TL could bring out emotions you never thought you would have for Acura.
Performance is not a big deal for everyone, but practicality can go a long way toward justifying the purchase of entry-luxury sedan. Carrying a full size rear passengers, for example, all the daily work for the 2011 Acura TL medium. Assuming the front occupants are not too high, adults will have plenty of legroom back here. The bench itself is a bit low, but thick pads to the bottom edge of the front seats provide adequate thigh support. There is also extra padding where you hit the lower back, which should help with the spirit of passengers on long trips. For peace of mind, every 2011 acura TL is equipped with seat mounted side airbags for front occupants (with position sensor passenger) and side curtain airbags to protect the people in front and rear. Acura is predicting five-star sweep in government crash testing, and "Good" rating in IIHS offset frontal test.
There are six different brands of Acura RL Acura TL, TSX, ZDX, MDX, andRDX.Brand TL has two distinct types called the TL and TL SH-AWD which has begun to price in the range of $ 35,000 to $ 45,000 for 2011 new vehicle. TL is a 280 horse power vehicles with four-wheel drive V6 engine that comes with a choice of speed automatic or five. TL SH-AWD is all-wheel drive vehicle with 305 horsepower with a torque of 273 pounds and six-speed options. Cylinder head covers made of light weight magnesium alloy materials, along with hard aluminum cylinder sleeves.Lightweight magnesium helps improve the balance of the vehicle, along with a forged crankshaft. SH-AWD stands for Super handling all-wheel drive vehicle that has the highest agility on the road together with the transition a smooth consistent power.Acura TL comes with sequential sports shift automatic with paddle shifters that allow the driver to have a choice of automatic or five-speed while driving. The driver can switch to the transmission drive that will give them a smooth gear change, or they can switch to a sports transmission that will provide faster acceleration.
Drive train for the vehicle allows the driver to hit the paddle shifter into drive as driving, which will give them a quick gear changes that will put the car into the auto after achieving stable speed. This will allow drivers to perform quick gear changes in automatic mode without having to change and get out of manual mode. When using a paddle shifter in sport mode allows the transmission to be placed into the kind of full manual mode. This will give drivers more control when driving over hills, which would give them more performance power. Grade logic control is what informs the transmission to the clutch in a lower gear while climbing a hill, or driving down a steep hill. Paddle shifters and sport shift five-speed gear drive that provides the best of both worlds. Vehicle has a rigid body structure that allows for a smooth ride and relaxed.

Acura TL also has the highest suspension system, power steering system is very good, braking and performance techniques. The brake system has a pedal company the right to modify the modulation is required of a high performance vehicle.

REVIEW 2012 ACURA TL

There are many new vehicles that are going to be released at the end of 2011 and beginning of 2012, however, one that most people are looking forward to is the 2012 Acura TL. For years the TL has been a long standing model that is offered by the company. And because of this, rarely have we seen any changes in the car since most people like it the way that it is. However, with the 2012 TL, people are going to be able to notice some slight changes that are going to give the car much more character, and make it more luxurious and sophisticated. 

One of the biggest changes that designers for the 2012 TL point out is that the front end has been redone. There is a modified grill, headlights that seem darker, lower lights on the front end and a few extra curves and lines to give the car the feel as if it was wider and lower to the ground. This is going to be the most noticeable change that people are going to be able to spot immediately. In addition, the rear end has always had a few modifications done to it as well. For example, they have reporportioned the lines so that it looks more balanced when compared to the entire car to give off that wider feeling to the car. Designers are stating that with these small changes that have given the car the edge that it needs to once again be the dominant Acura on the roads.

There are a few extra features that are going into the 2012 TL as well. For starters, the blind spot information system, which is going to warn drivers when they are turning or switching lanes if there is an object that they are going to hit. This is something that most drivers are going to love, however, it can always be turned off for those that find it annoying. There is also going to be the new option of the six speed automatic transmission that is going to improve fuel mileage. Previous generations of the TL have gotten around seventeen miles per gallon in the city, while getting around twenty-five miles per gallon on the highway. With the new transmission, these numbers should slightly increase. 

On the interior of the car there are a few changes as well. For one, the seats are now going to be heated and are ventilated, which is a luxury item that people in the past have not had in the TL, unless they specify this on a custom car. The stereo system is also getting an upgrade, as the Disk drive is now going to have 15 gigs of space, which means more songs that the person can make sure that they have with them when they travel. Plus, the Hard Drive is going to have the capability to identify a song for the listener. And for those that want the complete package, they can choose to get the Song by Voice package, which allows the driver to start their favorite song just be instructed the stereo to find it for them. Thus, increasing safety while driving since the driver does not have to fiddle with the controls. 

The car is going to be able to seat five comfortably, with enough leg room for those passengers that are sitting in the back. In addition, those drivers are going to love the layout of the interior since everything is within reach for the driver, such as audio controls on the steering wheel, a big in dash screen that will help to navigate or direct the driver to find a song. The gear shifter is also located in the center of the floor which gives the car a more sportier appeal. 

Overall, the 2012 Acura TL promises to be one of the cars that families are going to love since it can seat five, but still not give them the feeling that they are driving anything less than a performance car. The looks alone are going to be some that stand out against the crowd of other vehicles out there. And those that drive these are going to love how the car handles and sticks to the curves that it is put through, while still maintaining a feel of luxury on the interior.

REVIEW HONDA REVAMPS CIVIC

Honda has said that it plans to include natural gas powered Civics's to the public in all fifty states starting next year. However, this is not a new concept for Honda, as they have provided natural gas powered cars to the government for the past few years. But, many people are concerned about having a Honda Civic that utilizes natural gas in order to operate. 

For starters, natural gas is highly flammable thus many consumers are worried what will happen when the car is involved in a crash? In addition, is having a car using natural gas really going to make that big of a difference? The way in which the automaker is making sure that the car is as safe as possible on the road is making sure that the holding tank for the natural gas is reinforced so that if it is hit, it does not bust and explode, it should hold up or in worst case scenarios, the tank becomes cracked. Those cars that do use natural gas are a great option to fossil fuels since it produces less emissions than a typical car running off of gasoline. In addition, the natural gas that is used in these vehicles more than likely comes from North America, since that is where the bulk of the natural gas is found.

Honda is also releasing a gas hybrid version of the Civic as well, that is supposed to be released in the spring of this year. Both of these upgrades to the Civic is the automakers answer to many professionals feeling as if the Civic was outdated. The new hybrid Civic has been given a look that is more aerodynamic and just overall different from pass versions of the Civic. Overall,Honda did prove that the Civic is in the market to stay and with versatile options that are being offered, consumers are going to be very happy with what they have.

REVIEW OF 2012 HONDA CIVIC SI

For years people have been saying that the Honda Civic is just another face in the list of cars that are out there. That the car really does not have any distinguishable features about it that makes people want to have it. However, Honda is hoping to change this with the new 2012 Honda Civic Si that is being released. They are hoping to get back the magic that they once had that made people want to have the Honda Civic. However, did the Honda Civic Si get back the magic that has long been lost for some consumers?

There are many specifications about the Honda Civic Si that are going to be slightly different from past models, however, in order to full understand what all the Civic Si is offering,
the specifications must be known:
  • A combined 31 miles per gallon (which is by no means amazing when compared to other models that are on the market that are getting tons of more gas mileage)
  • 6 Speed Manual Transmission that is going to definitely get some people excited as more and more automakers are not offering manual transmissions even as an option
  • 13.2 gallon fuel tank
  • can hold up to five passengers, though the back passengers may be a bit cramped when riding long distances
  • 4 wheel anti lock brake system with disc brakes in the front and drum brakes in the rear for optimal stopping power
  • 2.0 liter I-VTEC four engine
  • 201 horsepower
  • can only use premium fuel in car
  • a shortened wheelbase is one of the dominant features of the car
  • harder suspension for a smoother ride

With all these changes and specifications, the main question that people are asking is whether this new Honda Civic is going to be the revolutionary product that people are wanting in a car? The professionals that have been given the opportunity to test drive this are a bit hesitant on saying yes or no when they are deciding on this. They state that there is great improvement on the braking power which was definitely needed. However, there is still not the power that people are expecting with a car that is considered this sporty. The ride is a bit smoother and the person is going to find that this is much more accommodating for the times in which they are riding longer.

However, the person is going to find that the ride is almost too tight to really be comfortable and this is perhaps the biggest drawback that people are talking about. Due to the small size that is in the vehicle most people find that this is not going to work for those that are trying to travel with their entire family. For the single person that does not have children or a significant other, it is going to be a perfect fit. For others, they may be a bit disappointed. However, it is a small compact car that is expected to get great gas mileage and so forth. Is this car winning in the category? It is a bit better than the past models, but a little more time could have went into making it better.
