New Suzuki Swift

These days, it's getting difficult to tell a new car from the model that came before it.

Cut-throat competition means car makers are scared to take risks; when they come up with a successful formula, they're loath to tinker with it. The new Suzuki Swift is one such example.

When it returned to Australian shores in 2005, the Swift was poles apart from the car that came before it, the largely unloved Ignis. It turned heads like no other small hatch on the road and, in its first year, it quadrupled the sales of its predecessor.

So after taking a leap of faith on a bold new look and coming up trumps, Suzuki has done the smart thing and made the 'new' Suzuki Swift look like the old one. But the new Swift is actually a bigger step forward than it appears, with more room, more frugal engines and better protection for occupants.

BMW, Mini Plot Small Car Assault : nice cars info

 Fuel saving, city friendly small cars are the new domain of luxury car brands such as BMW. BMW’s small car strategy is taking shape and will include electric vehicles, three-cylinder engines and an expansive Mini family.

The company is set to launch several new city-friendly models over the next three years with a core focus on reducing fuel use; in the case of electric models such as the upcoming i-Series electric city car there won’t be any fuel use and, therefore, zero carbon dioxide emissions.

BMW’s i-Series range will give the German company another unique selling point. The all-electric i-Series is expected to retain the BMW badge despite essentially being a brand in its own right, which will be spearheaded by the city-sized i3 hatchback, which insiders suggest will have a boxier, chunkier shape than other BMWs.

The plug-in light car is expected to offer a 160km range from its battery bank, while its electric motor will mimic most current BMW-badged models by sending its power to the i3’s rear wheels.

The move to dominate the small car end of the market is in contrast to the traditional positioning of the BMW brand. As with arch rival Mercedes-Benz, BMW’s luxury reputation has been largely build on larger limousines or bruising performance cars.

But in line with a trend towards smaller vehicles and increased demand from younger buyers BMW is planning a gargantuan assault of micro proportions.

Like other luxury makers – Mercedes-Benz has the A- and B-Class and Audi the A1 and A3 – it’s a necessary move to ensure sales keep growing. Sales of BMW’s larger models have dropped in recent years as buyers shift towards luxury off-roaders or smaller cars.

So far this year BMW has sold only 65 of its 7-Series limousines, compared to 134 units for the same period five years ago – a drop of 106 per cent despite an overall sales increase of 7.5 per cent.

Year-on-year sales don’t show as dramatic a fall (253 in 2010 versus 279 in 2005) but it’s a trend repeated throughout the large limousine rivals. In 2010 the Mercedes-Benz S-Class accounted for 253 sales versus 578 in 2006 (when a new model arrived) and 199 in 2005.

Jaguar’s XJ has also seen sales plummet despite the arrival of an all new model the brand claims “establishes a new benchmark for its class”. The more mainstream BMW 5-Series range has suffered a less dramatic decline, selling 560 units to May 2011 compared to 792 sales to May 2006 (a 41 per cent decline) but it’s still representative of a trend away from larger luxury sedans.

BMW spokeswoman Michelle Lang says the brand was aware of the shift towards smaller premium cars years ago, and the success of its 1-Series range is testament to that urge to downsize.

“BMW identified the trend for smaller vehicles many years ago, hence the introduction of the successful 1-Series range,” Lang says. “The 1-Series customer comprises 80 per cent conquest business – people who have never bought a BMW before – plus 80 per cent of those conquest customers have never bought a premium vehicle before.”

Lang says the premium small car segment offers buyers economy and efficiency, but not at the expense of technology or luxury. BMW’s all-new 1-Series is set to be powered by a range of more efficient turbocharged four-cylinder engines when it arrives later this year. A three-cylinder version will follow.

BMW’s Mini brand will evolve to offer several additional models, including the sleek-roofed Coupe (it’s due to arrive late this year) and a new Roadster convertible version set to follow later down the track.

Other future models for Mini are likely to include a new smaller hatch (likely to arrive in 2014) and a new two-door variant of its Countryman SUV (likely to arrive by 2013).

Mini spokesman Piers Scott told Drive this week that Mini is in a unique position that allows the brand to offer a diverse range of models without tarnishing its badge credibility.

Scott denies it is a challenge for a retro-inspired brand such as Mini to sustain buyer interest, instead suggesting that rivals such as Audi’s recently introduced A1 city car face a more difficult challenge.

“In a way it's much easier for Mini to keep things fresh because it is a brand first and foremost,” Scott says. “If you think about how you keep a brand like the A1 fresh and relevant when every other product you launch under the Audi brand is having an impact on that brand.

“In the case of Mini, you can be a lot more nimble [with the brand]. It's not trying to be all things to all people. It's very nailed down in terms of who the target profile is, and the lifestyle proposition it offers. It is very urban and very unique,” Scott says.

Audi Sees "Dramatic" Industry Shift Towards Emerging Market

FRANKFURT, German premium car maker Audi AG expects emerging markets to fuel growth for the auto industry in coming years, with the luxury-car segment anticipated to grow faster than the overall market.

“The so-called BRIC-states plus Indonesia and South Korea will account for more than half of the global economic growth until 2025,“ Chief Executive Rupert Stadler said Thursday at a luncheon event organized by the American Chamber of Commerce. BRIC is the acronym for Brazil, Russia, India and China.

“We have to decide now how we want to position ourselves for this future,“ Stadler said. He noted, however, that the U.S. will remain a key market for the auto industry and added that competition there is heating up again after the recovery of U.S. rivals. Stadler said he wants to increase Audi's footprint in the U.S. without granting high rebates to boost market share.

He reiterated that Audi is considering starting car production in the U.S. “We want to transfer our successful strategy from China and Europe to the U.S.,“ Stadler said. He didn't elaborate on the time frame when production in the U.S could start.

The world's third-largest luxury car maker by sales volume after BMW AG and Daimler AG's Mercedes-Benz brand targets a new global sales record of more than 1.2 million cars this year after selling 1.09 million vehicles in 2010, driven by booming demand for luxury cars across the globe. China is set to be become Audi's largest market this year with anticipated sales of around 280,000 cars.

Stadler told German TV station DAF in an interview that Audi might even surpass the 280,000 sales mark in China this year. In the first five months of the year, Audi sold around 535,400 cars worldwide, up almost 18% on the year.

Stadler dismissed recent media reports suggesting the new small A1 suffers from sluggish demand. “Its selling very well,“ he said, adding that the car is on track to reach its sales target of 120,000 cars in 2011.

In May, parent Volkswagen AG inaugurated its new production plant in Chattanooga, Tenn., a cornerstone of the German auto maker's global expansion plan and a crucial step to make its loss-making U.S. operations profitable again. Volkswagen wants to roughly triple its U.S. sales volume to more than 1 million by 2018, with the Audi brand accounting for 200,000 cars.

Audi is a key earnings contributor for Europe's largest auto maker by sales. Audi's first-quarter revenue was up 27% on the year at EUR10.5 billion. Operating profit rose to EUR1.12 billion from EUR478 million in the same period last year. Audi's operating return on sales was 10.6% in the first quarter after 5.8% last year, making it one of the world's most profitable car makers. Chief Financial Officer Axel Strotbek said earlier this year he expects profitability in 2011 to remain at last year's level.

Syubhan Akib - detikOto
Stuttgart - Innovations in the automotive world continues. In the future, using a conventional steering wheel certainly be out of date. Now a team is exploring the possibility to use the steering wheel which is based on the touch screen.
A team of researchers from the University of Stuttgart, University of Duisburg-Essen and Germany Research Center for Artificial Intelligence are currently working together to create a prototype of the steering wheel that uses the touch screen.
In addition, the steering controls can also be done with a touch screen integrated with the windshield. So they're hoping all the information and features on the car radio until the start of the navigation map can be seen in the windshield.
That way, the driver was so no need to turn his eyes from the road when they want to enjoy or control this feature when traveling.
The basic idea of ​​this technological development is actually quite simple, that is more intense and rapid advancement of technology in mobile phones makes the rider pulled perhatianya from the road to their mobile phone, steering with a touch screen and glass functional car is expected to maintain the attention of motorists.
Albrecht Schmidt, a computer science professor who worked on this project as quoted from physorg detikOto, Monday (06/13/2011) believes that by creating this steering wheel, the driver will be able to spend more time to focus on the road.
Steering wheel is made of acrylic which has a 11 millimeter thick that is surrounded by an infrared LED. There is an infrared camera attached to the acrylic base which detects reflection when the screen is touched.
In addition, the movement can also be done on the screen without a driver must touch their hands off the wheel.
To create a prototype, the researchers asked participants to make their body movements in order to create a command signal to 20 commands. Movements such as pinching two fingers to zoom in on the screen has also been included in the testing.
Once the researchers have set all the different common commands and record the usual gestures of drivers, the researchers then asked the participants to test this steering wheel in the simulator.
And the result, data from the study showed that the prototype of this steering wheel can significantly reduce the amount of time the driver of something my eyes off the road.
On the road, the researchers also believe that their technology can be combined with technology that can check road conditions and traffic and give a warning alert to the driver alert.
The prototype of this innovative steering wheel has been presented at the Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems. The researchers also reportedly is in talks with auto companies to look at the possibilities apply this technology into the vehicle in the near future.
