2011 Audi TT – First Drive Review – Auto Reviews – Car and Driver
Audi’s climb up the luxury ladder to a full-bore, take-’em-seriously competitor to BMW and Mercedes has been powered by volume models like the A4 and A6 sedans and Q5 crossover, but the first-generation
certainly helped the brand skip a few rungs. The sexy coupe and roadster had many noticing the four-ringed brand for the first time, and it’s already regarded as an icon of automotive design.
If the second-gen TT’s styling hasn’t taken a leap forward—although it’s still pretty stunning to behold—its performance certainly has, moving the car toward actual sports-car territory for the first time. The transformation was finally completed with the introduction of the
. Two hundred and sixty-five horsepower can do that.
Now it’s the base model’s turn to play. With the disappearance of the 3.2-liter V-6 from the TT’s engine options last year, the 2.0T model got some room to breathe. As such, the entry-level 2011 TT gets an improved version of the 2.0-liter EA888 turbocharged TFSI four-cylinder. The valve lift on the exhaust side is now variable, and horsepower rises from 200 to 211. More important, however, is that torque takes a huge leap from 207 lb-ft to a lofty 258. As with the 2010 TT lineup, the only drivetrain available in the U.S. pairs Quattro with the S tronic dual-clutch automated manual. Audi expects the 2011 2.0T coupe to knock at least 0.3 second off the previous 0-to-60 time.
to 60 in 5.7 seconds, so look for something in the 5.4-second range.
The rest of the package remains the same as before, which means you get a fantastic interior with supremely comfortable seats and nicely weighted steering. Of course, 60 or so percent of the car’s weight over the front axle means a good dollop of understeer, but the Quattro system sorts out what adjusting the angle of your right foot can’t.
Knockin’ on the TTS Door The engine is of course the news. The real-world difference between the old and new 2.0-liter TFSI is not earth shattering, but it is definitely noticeable, with horsepower and torque peaks available at lower rpm. Previously, maximum torque was available at 1700 rpm, whereas the new engine delivers its 258 lb-ft from 1600 rpm. Peak horsepower is available from 4300 rpm, as opposed to 5100 before. As such, engine response is even more dynamic, a characteristic helped by the newly variable lift on the exhaust valves. In fact, the regular TT is now so responsive and delivers so much low-end oomph that it feels eerily similar to the TTS, which you may notice also offers 258 lb-ft of torque, albeit at a higher 2500 rpm. (For 2011, the TTS carries over its 265-hp, 2.0-liter turbo four, although it’s based on the older EA113 architecture.) The TTS remains the quicker car, but the gap has narrowed significantly. The 2.0 TFSI is quite quick—it doesn’t feel much slower than the 332-hp, V-6–toting Nissan 370Z, which we’ve tested to 60 anywhere from 4.6 to 5.1 seconds, depending on transmission. But really, the 2011 TT 2.0T outclasses just about every other four-cylinder coupe we’ve driven.
What’s more, the TT also now looks like a TTS if you spec the optional S line package. The TTS differentiates itself only with some aluminum strips in the grille, as well as a strange horizontal bar that runs through the massive lower air intakes and terminates into round fog lights. The extra cost of the TTS delivers
some bragging rights: A TTS coupe clocked a 4.8-second sprint to 60 in our hands, so there’s that. But the bottom line is that we don’t think the TTS delivers enough extra to justify the price difference between the two models, which is likely to remain close to the $8000 to $10,000 it was for 2010. Of course, Audi won’t let this rest. We’re already detecting rumbles of a 300-hp, EA888-based turbocharged 2.0-liter for the TTS, and that should sort out the pecking order in a hurry.
We’re also hearing that the could finally make it here as Audi resurrects plans to offer RS cars to U.S. customers, which would complete a very compelling TT lineup. The TT RS, a 300-hp TTS, and now this new, even better 2011 base model? Sounds good to us.

2009 Toyota Matrix – First Drive Review – Auto Reviews – Car and Driver
Toyota, notwithstanding its own mid-’90s
, insists the Matrix "started the crossover utility vehicle trend" when it was introduced for 2003.
Built on the platform, it is sometimes referred to as the Toyota Corolla Matrix to help pump up Corolla sales figures, and since the grand total in 2006 was about 340,000, that seemed to work. Toyota also hoped the Matrix would help attract younger customers, but no luck there: The median age of the Matrix buyer is 52, and for the Corolla proper, 47.
Still, some 50,000 Matrixes a year is 50,000 a year, so the second-gen 2009 Matrix, a mechanical twin to the Pontiac Vibe, is
trs familiar.
Matrix fans will be pleased to hear that the AWD version and the performance-oriented XRS, dumped for 2007, are back. Other models are the Standard and the S. There is, incidentally, a 2008 Matrix, but production ended in December 2007.
The base engine remains a 1.8-liter four-cylinder that now has variable valve timing on both the intake and exhaust. Horsepower is 132, up six from ’08. For the first time, a bigger engine is offered—the 158-hp, 2.4-liter four-cylinder from the Scion xB, although it still has six fewer horses than the last XRS. All but the AWD get a five-speed manual. A four-speed automatic is offered on the Standard; the mid-level S and the XRS get five-speeds, although the S all-wheel-drive model only gets a four-speed. As before, the all-wheel-drive Matrix S is not remotely a sport model, so don’t get your hopes up.
The ’09 Matrix has the same 102.4-inch wheelbase as the ’08 model, but the length has increased a bit, and the senior senator from Idaho may appreciate the slightly wider stance of the ’09. The modest growth and the usual stiffening add up to a weight gain of about 200 pounds.
We drove multiple Matrixes and found that the 2.4-liter’s extra torque—162 pound-feet compared with the 1.8-liter’s 128—helps move the extra pork. Besides the 2.4, the XRS has the reasonably smooth five-speed manual, stiffer suspension tuning, a strut-tower brace, and 215/45R-18 radials on alloy wheels.
The XRS also has a new independent rear suspension, and we’d like to say that makes a big difference, but it doesn’t. The Matrix’s electric power steering felt slightly different on every model, ranging from numb to very numb.
Handling was reasonably crisp, the ride smooth except when the low-profile tires dived into a pothole. Toyota’s 0-to-60-mph estimate of 8.1 seconds seems a little on the slow side, especially since we tested the original XRS at 7.5 seconds [June 2002].
Otherwise, the Matrix is well screwed together, has a roomy, makes-sense interior and very nice instruments and controls, and, with the optional navigation system, is fairly upmarket. Toyota won’t talk price, but we’d wild-guess that a Matrix Standard will start at about $16,500 and a loaded XRS will certainly top $21,000.
New but familiar: That seems to work for this company, even if we’d like a little more. Look for the ’09 Matrix in early 2008.

Why Do These Similar Cars Feel So Different? – Feature – Auto Reviews – Car and Driver
The Evo MR and the WRX STi feel very different when evaluated one against the other on the track, so we did a few more handling tests to see if we could gather some data that would shed light on our seat-of-the-pants assessment.
First off, although these cars appear to be quite similar (turbocharged four-cylinder engines, four-door bodies, four-wheel drive, limited-slip front and rear differentials, etc.), there is a major difference in the way the four-wheel-drive systems distribute engine torque.
The Subaru employs an electromagnetic clutch on the center differential. Under normal driving conditions, say you’re just cruising down the interstate, the diff clutch is disengaged, and 65 percent of the engine power is routed to the rear wheels, with the remaining 35 to the front (a 35/65 front-to-rear split). The car’s engine computer adjusts that center-diff clutch, based on information from the yaw-rate and throttle-position sensors, and can send as much as 50 percent of engine torque to the front wheels. So the Subaru varies the torque split between 50/50 and 35/65. The driver can also manually select the torque split via a center-console switch.
The Mitsubishi, on the other hand, never sends the majority of engine torque to the rear axle. Instead, it can send all the engine torque to the front wheels or 50 percent of it (using an electrohydraulic clutch on the center diff). So the Evo varies the front-to-rear torque split between 100/0 and 50/50. In addition to the yaw-rate and throttle-position sensors, the Evo has a steering-wheel-angle sensor that also provides the computer with information.
Now, we’re simplifying things a little because it would take pages to describe exactly when those center-diff clutches operate, but basically, the aim of these systems is to make the car go where the driver wants. For sporty cars like these, four-wheel drive can simply be another tool in the engineer’s box that improves handling, and the computer algorithm that controls these center diffs is tuned in much the same way as the car’s suspension. Four-wheel drive is another interconnected variable—like shocks, springs, anti-roll bars, and tires—that affects vehicle handling.
Judging by the Subaru’s four-wheel-drive system, we initially figured the STi would be better at the racetrack simply because putting more torque to the rear wheels frees the front tires to do their main job, which is turning the car. The Subaru also has better weight distribution (58.2/41.8 versus 60.7/39.3 for the Evo), which should improve its handling.
But despite the STi’s power-to-weight advantage, it wasn’t the faster car at GingerMan, as Swan reports. The STi’s best lap time was 1:39.15 and the Evo’s was 1:38.88.
To dig a little deeper, we decided to perform some tests that go beyond our usual procedures, but before we went back to the track, we put both cars on Kumho Ecsta MX tires to remove that variable from our results. And even though these cars have driver-operated switches that can alter the function of the center diffs, we did all our testing in the automatic mode.
First, let’s talk about the split-traction-surface test. We used Bosch’s proving ground in nearby Flat Rock, Michigan. That facility has lanes of pavement running side by side with tiled surfaces, ideal for measuring varying traction levels. For this test, we put the left-side tires on a tiled lane that simulates driving on packed snow and the right-side tires on dry concrete. Then we accelerated from 5 to 50 mph. We also performed the same test with all four tires on dry concrete.
The Subaru accelerated at the same rate on both the dry section and the split-traction surface, whereas the Mitsubishi was 0.4 second slower on the slippery section than it was on the dry.
That test tells us the Subaru’s four-wheel-drive system is a little better at sending torque to the wheels with traction.

What Can-Am Could Have Been – Sport – Auto Reviews – Car and Driver
In its glory days—from roughly 1966 through 1974—the SCCA’s Can-Am series was the rip-roaringest racing extravaganza in North America, the vehicular equivalent of great white sharks in a goldfish bowl. It was widely perceived as a no-rules, run-what-ya-brung series, but there were always rules, and some of them—that every car should have a passenger seat, for instance—bordered on the absurd. Still, the unrestricted engines—usually big-block Chevy V-8s making 750 horsepower—were, in those days, both deafening and brain-boggling, as were the cars’ speeds. Given the primitive state of aerodynamics, the cars regularly clawed their way into the firmament, as Chaparral founder and stalwart Can-Amster Jim Hall discovered in 1968 at Las Vegas. He limps to this day.
The series suffered a death blow when, in 1972, Porsche threw countless deutsche marks and true engineering genius at creating the ultimate Can-Am dreadnought, the Porsche 917 Turbo entered by Roger Penske, and its subsequent iterations. This juggernaut quickly pummeled the gentlemen privateers, who not long thereafter decamped, along with the spectators.
Even if Porsche hadn’t bowled over the series, it still wouldn’t exist today. The cars would have become festivals of unaffordable engineering overkill, and the speeds would have overwhelmed any existing racetrack, endangering the lives of drivers and onlookers alike.
Still, it’s fun to ask, What if? Which is why we gathered five race-car designers to describe their notions of what a Can-Am car would resemble today. Here’s the design brief each participant was issued: The car must ride on pneumatic tires. It must be at least as safe for the driver as, say, a modern IRL car. No minimum weight will be mandated. Any engine and transmission is acceptable, ditto aerodynamics. The engine must drive at least one wheel. Races will last three hours on road courses such as Mid-Ohio and Elkhart Lake. And as for cost? Well, who cares?
There was, of course, no right or wrong answer, but an interesting design symmetry coalesced.

Video: New BMW M5 cuts the mustard
Ever since BMW revealed a thinly-disguised concept M5 at the Shanghai show we’ve been quietly obsessing over the forthcoming super-saloon.
The outgoing car is powered by BMW’s titanic 500bhp 5.0-litre V10 and is more desirable than Megan Fox holding a bacon sandwich. However the new car will dispense with naturally aspirated heaven in favour of the manufacturer’s 4.4-litre turbocharged V8.
Word is that power is pushed beyond 560bhp, but will forced induction rob the hallowed M car of its unique charm? We’ll have to wait until the Frankfurt show in September to find out – until then, here’s the just-released video of the challenger in training.

Understanding The Main Reasons Behind Hosting Companies Jumping On the Cloud Hosting Bandwagon.
:: Cloud computing has recently become very popular amongst various hosting companies. Cloud computing is a technology that employs the internet to maintain and save data and other various applications. This latest technology is becoming extremely popular with businesses and companies. Cloud computing allows the consumer to access their personal data from any other computer. To access and maintain data, no installation or any other application is mandatory. This makes it very convenient for the consumer and also adds to the popularity of cloud computing.
There are numerous benefits of using a cloud host company. The biggest advantage is that it is cost efficient. Also, because of cloud hosting, website expansion can be managed with extremely little limitations. For any single server user, there is always a high probability of your website crashing if there is an increase in online traffic. This can be particularly harmful for any business and cause you to lose your valuable customers. With cloud hosting, you will never have to face any such issues.
Many factors contribute for the popularity of cloud servers over the traditional sever. If any website gains its popularity, the site remains under a lot of burden as there are many users all over the world trying to gain access to the site. In the case of traditional server hosting, it would take more time to access the website. However, it is an entirely different situation for cloud hosting. The burden on a site is minimized, and the online user can search for the site from another server.
Cloud hosts have gained a lot of loyalists over the years. In cloud hosting, a usage based billing system is applied. This means that the consumers will have to pay an extra amount only when there is heavy traffic on their website. This saves a lot of the precious money of any consumer. In a dedicated traditional sever, the client had to previously pay for the entire bandwidth regardless of the fact whether the website has any online traffic or not. That is why cloud hosting has become as popular as it saves time and money for the consumer.
Cloud hosting allows the user to increase his or her organization without having to pay extra. For the very first time ever, cloud computing offers its clients their money’s worth. Businesses just bill their own clients on the amount of hosting power used. Cloud web hosting gives the capability to meet sudden influxes in online traffic without having to pay for extra bandwidth when the traffic is not so heavy.
Cloud web hosting eases the consumer with its usage based billing. That is why cloud hosting is the future in the computing industry. To stay on top of the current trends in technology, most companies are now switching to cloud hosting. This allows easy maintenance and expansion of business for any company. Because of the numerous benefits of cloud hosting, many companies are now employing the cloud technology rather than using the traditional dedicated servers.
