FIRST PHOTO OF THE OFFICIAL VOLVO S60 !!!!!

will be available in the second half of 2010. This new model replaces the S60 market since 2001.

In terms of size and price will be an alternative to models like the Audi A4, BMW 3 Series, Mercedes-Benz C-Class or Lexus IS. In the Volvo, it is placed between the S40 and S80. The design on the front is similar to recent models of the brand, as the C30, the C70 and the XC60.

Very close to the Volvo S60 Concept, presented at the end of 2008. Unlike the latter, the S60 finds the conventional rear doors instead of doors "suicides" (Rolls Royce Phantom, Mazda rx8) on the concept car. but found the panoramic glass roof of the concept car that will be optional or standard depending on the version.

The S60 will have a new system to detect pedestrians. It can detect the presence of any person and stop automatically if the driver does not react in time. It is an evolution of the "City Safety" which has the XC60 and is able to detect an obstacle (not a pedestrian) and automatically brake to avoid collision.

The pedestrian detection system operates with a radar that detects obstacles in front of the car, and a video camera that captures images that are then processed by a computer control capable of identifying a person (the radar can not do it alone).

It is able to avoid a collision against a pedestrian if the speed is below 20 km / h. This device is also able to avoid the collision between two vehicles if the speeds do not differ by more than 25 km / h. The radar is located on the front of the vehicle, while the unit is located in the rearview mirror.

The S60 will be presented at the Geneva Motor Show 2010. Production will begin in early summer 2010 in the Volvo plant in Ghent (Belgium).

It would be the 3.0 v6 tdi 240 hp, but also the 4.2 tdi 322 hp V8. Another bad news for lovers of the brand and that all anti "stove oil" still on the pretext that it is necessary to lower the CO2, but Porsche could be other solutions but the least expensive to use at Audi.

By cons is preparing a surprise (well it is not all bad news finally) Porsche is preparing a hybrid with the 3.0 liter V6 petrol 369 hp (original Audi ... always reminds me of the errors passed the 924,944 that was basically a coupe Audi) coupled to an electric motor of 38 KW. The goal is to successfully reduce consumption to 7.9 liters per 100 km which would be a record for a Porsche and the model will be equipped with this block will be the future ... including 928 drawings were published by the site English Auto Express. The base used is that the Panamera but shortened version, the front is borrowed from the Panamera while the rear is a bit sportier. It will be interesting to compare it to the Aston Martin V8 Vantage knowing that Porsche will also use V8 engines of the Panamera voila place to photograph.

You find the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano HgTe not powerful enough? and the 599 fxx too extreme? Ferrari will rejoice to revive a myth which is expressed in three letters ... After the GTO 250 GTO 288 GTO 1962 and 1984 there 'will the 599 GTO!
The program reduced weight and increased power between 680 and 700 horses! it's weird like that on the side of San Angata was announced the same power for the future Urus, in any case I welcome the revival of this name, synonymous with high performance at Ferrari.
