Hertz and CODA Automotive Make All-Electric Transportation a Reality for Consumers

 CODA Automotive, a California-based electric car and battery company, and The Hertz Corporation , the world's largest general use airport car rental brand, entered into a partnership making 100% all-electric CODA„¢ Sedans available at select Southern California Hertz® locations.

"The 100 percent electric CODA was designed to meet the needs of most Americans with dependable, all-season range, and fast, convenient charging," said Mark Jamieson, CFO & COO, CODA Automotive. "With one of the world's largest rental car fleets, Hertz is uniquely positioned to catalyze the adoption of all-electric vehicles and infrastructure supporting electric mobility."

"Hertz is committed to the widespread use of electric vehicles globally and we are laying the foundation to make electric vehicle mobility a reality today," commented Mark P. Frissora, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, The Hertz Corporation. "The CODA Sedan represents an outstanding zero emissions solution, one that will appeal to the needs of our consumers from urban dwellers, travelers and corporations. Companies like CODA Automotive align with our vision to provide tomorrow's driving solutions to consumers today."

Hertz operates the world's largest fleet of general use airport rental cars with access to many different groups of consumers at over 8,300 locations. This access gives Hertz a unique opportunity to introduce the all-electric CODA to a broad group of potential consumers.

The partnership with CODA represents Hertz's commitment to developing a sustainable eco-system for alternative forms of transportation.

After each CODA Sedan has been driven 100,000 miles or more, consumers will experience an average CO2 savings of 21.8 tons relative to a 25 MPG internal combustion engine vehicle(i). Based on an average of $.11 per kWh of electricity nationwide, the CODA costs approximately $3.50 to charge from depletion €" enough for up to a 120 mile drive.

2011 Buick Regal CXL Review

I was anxious to try the new Buick Regal for a couple of reasons. First, my wife drives a 2001 Buick Park Avenue. While they're not quite in the same weight class, I wanted to see if the Buick name had lost (or gained) any luster. 2011 buick regal review

Second, One of my wife's favorite cars was an Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, with was a platform mate of the Buick Century. Yeah, I know the Century and Regal were different cars, but they were close enough to compare, like Macintosh apples and Rome apples . automobile news

Well, the new Regal is smallish, but it's ideal for a small family, or grandparents with charges. While the Monronie label that came with the car didn't identify it as such, I'll bet it qualifies in the compact class. Sure, it's advertised as a 5-passenger, but that center passenger in the back better be pretty slim.

2011 Infiniti G37 Convertible Review

Today the best of convertibles comes from manufacturers like Audi, VW, BMW, Mercedes, Lexus and of course Infiniti. My drive today is the 2011 Infiniti G37 Convertible which is a stand out. The sleek lines of the exterior are close to the sensuous design of the G37 Coupe. The best in the Infiniti G37 is the interior. Normally a convertible lover like myself does not care that we can perform. We just want the wind and sun. Sure you get this with the Infiniti G37 but the exhilarating power is amazing. Wards awarded Nissan and Infiniti for over ten year their V 6 as one of the 10 best engines manufactured.. Yes it is and the fact that that with so many superb features the Infiniti G37 is one of the best hard top convertibles made.

The power of the infiniti G37 G Convertible is spectacular. The engine is an upgrade from the previous award winning engine. The newest engine is more fuel efficient and more powerful. So many new feature allow this to happen including more air into the cylinders from the start of acceleration, VVEL technology delivers a quicker response for instant power.

The Infiniti G convertible has a 7-speed automatic transmission. More gears and Drive Sport means you always have the optimum selection for quick and responsive acceleration. And the 7th gear allows lower-rpm cruising for greater fuel efficiency. Adaptive Shift Control optimizes the automatic transmission for smooth and seamless shifting. For a more hand-on connection, switch into manual mode with Downshift Rev Matching and use the available solid magnesium paddle shifters. Or opt for the 6-speed manual transmission and take direct control of every shift.

2011 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E350 4MATIC Wagon Review

Admittedly, I've been smitten with the Mercedes Benz E-class station wagon through many of its generations. Other station wagon offerings on the market today come mostly from European brands—they are extremely popular in Europe, and there is also the relatively new Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon.

Review 2010 Toyota Land Cruiser

Newark Toyota World of Delaware would like to present the 2011 Toyota Land Cruiser, an SUV that has served as the brand's flagship for decades. Intended as a paradigm of luxury and utility, the Land Cruiser has made a name for itself as an SUV combining first-rate off-road ability with luxurious appointments for up to eight adults. Recently modernized for the new century, all Land Cruisers ride on a full ladder frame for the highest levels of 

ruggedness and solidity. Standard full-time 4-wheel-drive, Crawl Control, a Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System, and an array of limited-slip differentials work in concert to ensure potency in off-road situations, while a 381-horsepower, 5.7-liter DOHC V8 keeps the Land Cruiser's acceleration and towing ability competitive. All the while, the 2010 Land Cruiser considerable noise isolation and plush ride quality maintain a dignified demeanor.

This is because the entry-level premium compact standouts apart for two solid reasons: a hybrid engine achieving a combined EPA estimated fuel economy of 42-mpg; and a driver-centric feel featuring an array of cutting edge interior technology at your finger tips. automobile news

I was able to test drive several 2011 Lexus CT200h trims at a recent media event held in Palm Springs, California. All CT200h's are equipped with a 134-horsepower Lexus Hybrid Powertrain system that can go from 0-60 in 9.8 seconds. The eco-kudos on the Ct 200h are long: The design incorporates numerous energy saving and environmentally-conscientious measures such as LED lighting, a lightweight energy-efficient audio system amplifier with bamboo charcoal speakers, and the use of bio-sourced materials. Price is yet to be determined, but Lexus states the CT200h will be the most affordable Lexus in the lineup.

The CT stands for "Compact Touring." Lexus positions the lexus CT200h next to the Audi 3, Volvo C30 and BMW 1-Series; however, the styling is more reminiscent of a Mazda3. Lexus is careful not to dub it a hatchback, although it is a 5-door vehicle. Lexus hopes to capture an entirely new group of buyers with the CT200h. In fact, the company estimates 60 percent of sales will comes from non-Lexus "conquest sales" – more specifically males in their 30-40's moving up into the luxury car segment for the first time.

Ford Fiesta Sedan SEL 2011 Review

Ford Fiesta is a world car, meaning that it's sold around the world in as close to a single specification as possible. There are minor differences under the skin, as American safety specs are just different enough from European or Asian to require such, but a North American Fiesta still looks nearly identical to its foreign counterparts. With one exception. While the rest of the world has only hatchback versions of the Fiesta, in two- or four-door form (three or five counting the hatch as a "door"), we get the four-door hatch and a four-door sedan.

Conventional thinking in the auto industry is that hatchbacks are seen as entry-level, bottom-feeder "econoboxes", with a smattering of performance models. Hatch sales are far less than ten percent of total passenger cars, so Ford's strategy seemed to make sense. Except that in early sales, 60% of Fiesta buyers have opted for the hatch. Still, that's a sizable 40% for the sedan, and the mix could change. The other surprise with early Fiesta sales is that premium, not entry-level, trim levels have been the best-sellers. 2011 ford fiesta review

In the Fiesta sedan lineup, that means SEL, not the base S or mid-level SE. And SEL means "fully-equipped", with ambient lighting, Ford's SYNC® in-car connectivity system, a good AM/FM/CD sound system with jack and USB inputs, and Sirius® satellite radio. Where there are a variety of small gasoline and diesel engines in other markets, the extra weight from U.S.-spec emissions and crashworthiness standards and the longer distances traveled here mean any engine you want as long as it's a 1.6-liter, 120-horsepower four-cylinder.

Transmission choices are five-speed manual, no surprise, or a six-speed "automatic". Why the quotation marks? The PowerShift is not a conventional torque converter-based automatic, nor is it a CVT. It's an electro-hydraulically controlled dual-clutch automated manual, as used in high-performance and racing cars. It's more efficient than a torque-converter automatic, for improved fuel economy, and uses a variety of electronic systems to work nearly seamlessly.

Best Emiossion car

A few weeks ago, in an effort to prove that they continue to be the dimmest bulb in the chandelier, Edmunds felt the need to do a story that claimed that the Chevrolet Volt is not an electric car, but a hybrid. They are wrong, of course (see link to that story below).

Well now some auto media outlets, in an effort to show that they can be every bit as dim*, are trying to dispute Nissan's claim that the new Leaf is a ZERO emissions vehicle. The accusation is based upon the argument that in order to make the electricity to power the Leaf that "bad" fuel generating sources may be used; such as coal.

While it is accurate to say that electrical power is often created by non-green resources, it is a gross distortion to say that the Leaf is not a ZERO emissions vehicle. Just because a worker on the Nissan assembly line hit his wife, you wouldn't say that the Nissan Leaf is a wife-beater car. The Nissan Leaf does not have any engine emissions - it does not emit any of the gases or particulates that are associated with typical internal combustion engines. It does not even emit the clear water that is emitted by a hydrogen-powered car. It has no emissions. Since "NO" can also be displayed as the numerical value zero, it has zero (0) emissions. Consequently it is a "ZERO EMISSIONS CAR." It is a zero-emissions electric car. The Chevy Volt is a not-zero-emissions electric car because it can utilize a small internal combustion engine (that does emit gases) to charge its batteries and power it electric engine (however, it is not a hybrid).
