2011 Kia Sorento Review Price and Picture

The 2011 Kia Sorento — which will occupy showrooms in early January 2010 — is the first vehicle that will roll out of Kia’s brand-new manufacturing plant in West Point, Georgia. Called Kia Motors Manufacturing Georgia (KMMG), the plant lies on a sprawling 2,200-acre plot in the rural rolling hills near the Alabama border, and it has been built to support the production of up to 300,000 vehicles per year. 2011 Kia Sorento The crossover world is bracing for change with the arrival of the 2011 Kia Sorento. Formerly a truck-based SUV with frame rails and some real off-road capability, the new Sorento leaves the trails behind for a new mission that’s all about toting families in car-like comfort. It’s aimed at the likes of the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V and Ford Edge-a mix of smaller and larger car-based utility vehicles. The Sorento fits in the Kia lineup between the small Sportage and the big Borrego SUV, and enters production later this year at a new factory in West Point, Georgia. It goes on sale during the first week in January with a base price of less than $20,000, and comes in LX, EX and EX V-6 versions. 2011 Kia Sorento Images 2011 kia sorento The new 2011 Kia Sorento is now technically a crossover — as opposed to an SUV — because it rides on a unibody platform. In theory, that should mitigate the bouncy ride attributed to traditional body-on-frame SUVs, which is what the Sorento used to be, but the new Sorento’s suspension makes it feel as bouncy as any SUV I’ve tested. Kia Sorento 2011 The Kia Korento 2011 is a comfortable crossover over smooth roads, but hit some potholes or expansion joints and it starts to buck. It’s something any owner of a Nissan Pathfinder or Ford Explorer — both traditional SUVs — is likely familiar with, but those comparing the Sorento with a CR-V or Nissan Murano — both crossovers — might be in for a rude surprise. Kia Sorento 2011With so much competition from both compact and midsize crossovers, the Sorento has to do a lot right to win consumers. The good news for Kia is that the Sorento is as impressive as it is. Its bouncy ride might turn off some shoppers, but its low price helps make up for that shortcoming. For shoppers who need severe-weather capability, the Sorento stands out in its class thanks to its affordability, array of standard features and relatively nice interior. Though the Sorento can cost more than $29,000 if you opt for the highest trim, a modestly equipped base model is quite a good value.

Audi A3 (2012) UK pricing announced

Audi has priced up the third generation A3 hatchback, due to go on sale in September 2012. With the range starting at £19,205 and rising to £26,560 - before you've tackled Audi's infamous options list - the new A3 looks to be gunning straight for the new BMW 1-series. How does the new Audi A3 model range shape up? Mercifully, Audi has streamlined the range to keep things simple. At launch, there are three engines to choose from: a petrol 1.4 TFSI with 120bhp, a petrol 1.8 TFSI producing 178bhp, and the all-important diesel motor: a 148bhp 2.0 TDI. For more technical details, check out CAR's first drive review of the new Audi A3 here. Each engine is availiable in either SE, Sport, or S line trim, and while the 1.4 petrol and 2.0 diesel motors are paired with a six-speed manual gearbox as standard, the 1.8 is availaible only with Audi's seven-speed S tronic automatic transmission. What are the spec levels on the new Audi A3? Entry level SE models come as standard with 16-inch alloys, air-conditioning, Bluetooth and Audi's familiar MMI control interface with a folding dashboard-mounted screen. Upgrading to Sport trim buys you 17-inch wheels, Audi's 'Drive Select' adpative controls for vehicle set-up, as well as climate control and sports seats. Finally, top-of-the-range S line A3s are distinguished by 18-inch alloys, the sharper S line body styling, xenon headlights and part-leather upholstery. Further packages to add infotainment extras, interior upgrades and sportier suspension will arrive in due course. How do these details compare with the Audi A3's rivals? Starting at £19,205, the A3 cheekily undercuts the base-spec BMW 1-series by around £100, though the BMW has more powerful engines - a 116i is good for 136bhp - the 1.4 A3 has 120bhp. Mercedes has yet to announce prices for its radically different third-generation A-class, though we'd expect to see prices start somewhere very close to Audi's £19k benchmark. Audi might have played it very safe on the styling front for this new A3 model, but there's method in Audi's lack of madness - the brand's sales swelled by 19% in 2011, with the A3 maintaining strong sales despite being based on a platform that dates from 2003. We'd expect to see that success continue when the new Audi A3 goes on sale in the UK from September 2012.

Introduction to cars: an overview of vehicle systems

Millions of people wake up in the morning, grab a cup of coffee and drive off to work, without stopping to think, 'how does my car work'? Most of the time, that question comes as, 'why doesn't my car work?' The way to stay informed is to read up on the subject, which is the point of this hub. American life would not be the same without cars, so it is a good idea to be somewhat knowledgeable on how that which we hold so dear works. There are many different systems in cars, but they can be broken down into 7 sub systems. Those systems are steering, suspension, drive train, emissions, brakes, electronics, and safety. These can also be broken up into smaller sub systems, and i will go into greater detail with later posts. This is part one: Steering and Suspension Lets start with steering, the system that allows your vehicle to turn. It consists of many parts, which vary depending on what type of steering your vehicle has. Lets start with the parts they all have, which would be the steering wheel, the inner tie rods, and the outer tie rods. (also known as tie rod ends) Inner tie rods connect the power steering unit to the outer tie rod ends, which directly connect to the wheel. The power steering unit, or rack, can be of differing types, it can be hydraulic, which is traditional, electric, which is seen more on newer cars and hybrid cars, or not have one at all, manual steering on older cars and trucks. The steering wheel is connected to a universal joint in the middle of two shafts. A universal joint allows the shaft to spin and be at an angle at the same time, it acts kind of like your wrist, this allows the steering wheel to be tilted to fit the driver properly and saves space. The other end of this would connect to the rack. Most people have hydraulic power steering and those need to have fluid added to them occasionally, especially if they whine. The next system would be the suspension. There are many different types of suspension setups for many different vehicles. i will go over two different types here, basic suspension on a mid size car, (Ford Taurus, Chevy Cavalier) and suspension on 4 wheel drive (or 4wd) trucks. On the mid size cars there are less over all parts. The main part would be the strut assembly. They consist of a spring, a strut, and an upper strut mount, the strut is a shock absorber that has the spring mounted to it to save space. The upper strut mount bolts directly to the body, and has a bearing in it to allow it to rotate when the wheel turns. The strut is bolted on top to the body of the car and to the steering knuckle on the bottom. The steering knuckle is where the wheel hub is located and the wheel is bolted on to. The wheel hub also has the brake assembly bolted to it. The steering knuckle also has the outer tie rod end connected to it so the wheel can turn. The bottom of the steering knuckle is bolted to a ball joint, which allows the steering knuckle to rotate and move. And the ball joint is connected to the lower control arm, which allows the suspension to go up and down. Before i start talking about truck suspension, let me explain about shocks, struts, and springs. Shocks and struts serve the same purpose, keep the tire in contact with the road. If cars did not have shocks, they would bounce every time the smallest bump was hit. They slow down the movement up and down to give a smoother ride. Springs are there to keep the vehicle up, to support it. They also absorb shock, to keep the car ride smooth, but with out the shocks there to slow them down, it would be a very bumpy bouncy ride. Four wheel drive trucks have many different suspensions depending on how their drive train is set up. The rear is the simplest on a solid axle rear end, which means the axle casing goes from wheel to wheel. The springs are mounted on the casing, and the shocks are mounted to the casing also. The axle is held on in differing ways depending on the manufacturer. In the front it is very different from a car. The shocks and springs are separate, unlike a strut assembly. There is an upper control arm and ball joint where the strut would have mounted. The tie rod end and the ball joints still connect to the steering knuckle. There may be a sway bar, which is a long metal rod which goes from side to side and connects to the steering knuckle or strut with sway bar links. This lessens the amount of body roll which allows for better handling and more safety. That is part one of the basic over view of car systems. Part two will be on its way soon.
