2013 Range Rover launched in India
Land Rover has launched the
latest 2013 Range Rover in India priced at Rs. 1.72 lakh ex-showroom New Delhi.
The 4th generation Range Rover made its International debut just 2 months ago
and considering India as a potential market Land Rover has launched the latest
Range Rover here as soon as possible.
Range Rover has been known for
its offroad capability with high end luxury which no other manufacturer could
match. At the price of around 2 crore you could get a sports car but nothing
like an SUV, given the road conditions in India which demand a vehicle which
could go anywhere and at the same time give the maximum comfort for its
passengers. The top end Range Rover will cost you Rs. 1.79 crore and there is a
petrol option also in the offering which commands Rs. 5 lakh more than the top
end diesel variant.
The latest Range Rover sheds
around 400 Kg of weight which means the beast now goes much faster than its
earlier model. Apart from weight loss, the new Range Rover new emits even
lesser CO2 than the earlier making it a green friendly vehicle. The performance
of the new Range Rover has also been increased which means you have a SUV here
which goes like a sports car and yet can take you to places where most of the
cars cannot.
The Range Rover is powered by a
4.4 L V8 turbo diesel and 5.0 liter V8 supercharged petrol engines. The 4.4 L
V8 turbo diesel produces peak output of 338 Bhp and 700 Nm of torque. The 5.0L
V8 petrol produces massive 510 Bhp of power and 625 Nm of torque, enough for
your pulse racing. The speed of both variants have been electronically
restricted at 240 Kmph. Both the engines have been mated to a 8 speed automatic
gearbox which makes you confused to decide weather you want to stay at the
wheels or sit at the back.
After all the Land Rover is made
for the ultra rich and any common man thinking to buy it have to think twice to
even think about the vehicle.

Why Choose Vehicle Lifts? The Benefits of Adding One to Your Repair Business
Many mechanics work on vehicles while lying on their backs on rollers
or in pits under the cars. These are uncomfortable positions in which to work
on a vehicle, as oil, grease and other debris drips and falls on your body at
close proximity when on a roller, and a pit requires the mechanic to deal with
the hassle of climbing down and back up every time they fix a car. Vehicle
lifts could prove a useful solution to these problems, so consider adding one
to your repair business,
Less Physical Strain on the
Mechanic
Humans aren’t meant to work for long periods on their backs, and the
strain of doing so proves especially hard on your mechanics who have done so
for years. Rollers put mechanics in a cramped position with minimal space to
maneuver their arms, making repairs both a straining and a time-consuming
ordeal. In the cramped space, mechanics are more likely to hit and injure their
arms and their legs, as they pull themselves out from under the car.
Your business could prove liable for health care in the event of sudden
injury or injury as a result of long-term strain. Choosing a lift instead is
not only healthier for your employees, but a wiser investment to keep lawyers
at bay.
Ease of Access
The cramped position of a mechanic on their back on a roller makes it
more difficult than it needs be to work on a vehicle’s undercarriage. Even when
you opt for a pit instead, the mechanic may have more room to move their arms,
but they’re in a fixed position to work on the car. They may need a lift
themselves to boost themselves up to reach the car, or if they’re particularly
tall, they may need to work hunched over.
A lift can be adjusted to precisely fit the height of a mechanic, so
they can move their arms freely without straining. The entire undercarriage of
the vehicle is exposed, making it easier for a mechanic to check one part of
the car, walk a few steps and check another part, a task that ought to be
simple but certainly isn’t when done on a roller or even in a pit.
Enabling Multitasking
It’s not possible to rotate or change a vehicle’s tires when you’re
working on the undercarriage, unless you employ a lift. If you work on a roller
and use a jack to raise the car to get access to the tires, you certainly can’t
have the mechanic underneath at the same time as this is a potential hazard
should the jack slip and the car slam down.
When working on the undercarriage via a pit, the car stays on the
ground, and the same hazard of using a jack to lift the car at the same time
applies. Plus, then the car may be too high for an employee underneath to reach
regardless. With a lift, you streamline car maintenance, which saves you time
and earn you more money more quickly.
Saving Space
If your garage or work space is already cluttered, you may not have the
room for a full pit add-on. With a lift, you won’t have to worry about digging
out a hole below your garage. The lift can be installed anywhere you have
appropriate floor space, even including
the space you may already use to fix vehicles via rollers, if the ceiling is
high enough.
You may also be able to install the lift outside or build a shelter to
house it if weather is frequently inclement in your area. A new shelter over
the lift is likely to cause fewer problems than digging a hole to house a pit,
as a hole could run into wiring and plumbing that would need to be re-routed.
Just make sure the lift area remains clear of debris before each use.
Multi-Car Parking
If you look into a parking lift rather than specifically a lift for
working on a car, you’ll enjoy many of the same benefits, but one you will
especially benefit from is saving space. If you have a larger number of
vehicles to work on but you don’t have the room to keep them stored on your
property, you’ll have to turn away business. If you install lifts that allow
you to park two cars in a space where you would have previously just been able
to park one, you can double your business.
With so many benefits to adding vehicle lifts to your automotive repair
business, such as safety, generating more business and increasing the amount of
available shop space, it’s easy to see why so many shop owners have decided to
install these lifts to keep a competitive edge in today’s automotive repair
market.

Renault developing two low cost cars
French website La Tribune has
reported that Renault is developing two low priced cars in the price range of
$3000 to $5000. The car rumoured to be priced at $3000 will compete with world’s
cheapest car ‘Tata Nano’ and other model with $5000 price tag which will have
ARAI economy figures of 24-26 Kmpl will rival Maruti 800 Alto and Hyundai Eon.
Both these cars will be
manufactured in association with Nissan and will be built in India. These cars
will have no plans to go to Europe as they are developed exclusively for
emerging markets.
Renault and Nissan had JV with
Bajaj Auto to develop an Ultra Low Cost car. Bajaj Auto came up with RE60,
which was actually a low cost 4 wheeler and not exactly a car, made Renault and
Nissan to discontinue the JV and work themselves on a new low cost car
platform. These low cost cars are likely to come by late 2014.
Ford Ecosport to be launched by Jayalalithaa, 8 new products in pipeline for India
Since Ford came to India in late
90’s things have never been so interesting in Ford India. The reason for it is
the Ecosport mini SUV which will be launched in India early next year.
According to the latest news, the Ecosport will be launched by Tamil Nadu Chief
Minister Jayalalithaa who has agreed for the invitation by Ford India.
Ford pins lots of hopes on the
Ecosport, and why not, the muscular looking mini SUV could be a new blockbuster
car in India after the Maruti Swift. In fact we feel the Ecosport looks to be a
perfect mini SUV when compared to Duster and Quanto. The rear tailgate mounted spare
wheel adds to the rugged SUV looks of the vehicle.
If you are thinking just about
the looks of the Ecosport making an impact you might be wrong. The Ecosport
under its hood will feature the latest Ecoboost 1.0L petrol engine which in
spite of its smaller capacity can produce 125 Bhp of power. According to Ford,
this small wonder of an engine produces high power with great fuel efficiency,
both of which are inversely proportional. The Ecoboost engine manages to drive
the Ecosport to over 20 Km with a liter of petrol. The Ecosport will also be
available with the Fiesta’s 1.5L diesel burner which too has a good record of
fuel efficiency.
Ford is working hard on pricing
the Ecosport competitive and few days ago an official from Ford had mentioned
about Ecosport being priced less than the Renault Duster, which means the base
petrol and diesel could be priced at Rs. 6.5 and 7.5 lakh respectively.
Currently there is a change of
guard at Ford India. Mr. Michael
Boneham, President and
MD of Ford India is being replaced by Mr. Jogindar Singh and Ford maintains that in spite of leadership
change the plan to launch value for money products remains the same. Ford plans
to launch 8 new products in India in next 3 years. Ford’s second plant at
Sanand will commence operation from 2014.
