Autobot Bike – Uno III Electric

Sarv007 — Thu, 06 Jan 2011 16:21:41 +0000

The Uno electric bike is a unique beast: an electric scooter that looks like a mini-motorcycle and folds up into a Segway-like scooter balanced on two wheels, providing easy motorcycle shipping and storage.

The front wheel just retracts for the scooter’s “self-balancing mode”, which allows it to maneuver better in tight spaces. Will it be mistaken for an Autobot by kids when they see this zipping down the street? It’s best we wait until the Uno rolls out next year.

There are plenty of electric scooters on the market, but how many of them can fold up into an electric unicycle? The Uno electric scooter can. It also looks like something out of a Michael Bay Transformers movie.

The Uno has a top speed of around 35 miles per hour and a range of 30 miles. The “unicycle” mode is called self-balancing mode, and it allows the Uno to retract its front wheel and balance on the two real wheels, using a gyroscopic control system that gives the bike much more maneuverability.

The creators bpg-motors.com are planning to sell the Uno for between $4,000-$7,000 and it’s expected to be available in limited quantities starting next year.

Most Lethal Porche 911 Ever-2011 Porsche 911 GT2 RS

Sarv007 — Mon, 17 May 2010 13:43:02 +0000

The aim: to surpass the 911 GT2. The method: Porsche Intelligent Performance. The result: the new 911 GT2 RS. Not a muscle too few. Not a gram too much. How it feels? As you can see in this video, that’s difficult to describe.

90 More Horsepower, 154 lbs Less Filling

The latest 911 is the fastest and most powerful road-going sports car ever built in the history of Porsche. With horsepower up by 90 and weight down by 154 lbs in comparison with the previous 911 GT2, the new 911 GT2 RS has a power-to-weight ratio of just 4.9 lbs per horsepower, by far the best power/weight ratio in its class. These are the ideal ingredients for an ultra-high-performance sports car with supreme agility and truly blistering performance on the road. Perfectly illustrating Porsche Intelligent Performance, the 2011 GT2 RS achieves a reduction of approximately 5 percent for both fuel consumption and CO2 emissions when compared with the previous 911 GT2.

The time: seven minutes, 18 seconds on the Nürburgring-Nordschleife. The power: 620 hp. The weight: 3,020 lb in road trim with all fluids on board. The car: the new 2011 Porsche 911 GT2 RS.

Unique Looks, Limited Production, Worldwide Appeal

In its looks, the new 911 GT2 RS stands out clearly from the other 911 models through the lavish use of carbon-fiber-reinforced components with a matt-black surface finish, even wider wheels (including flared wheel arches at the front), new light-alloy wheels with central locking and “GT2 RS“ model designations on the doors and rear lid. Matte-finish carbon also graces the redesigned front spoiler lip and the 3/8th of an inch (10 mm) taller rear spoiler lip – which both enhance aerodynamics and provide extra downforce.

To sum it up in one word: “Awe.” Exclusive information on: http://www.porsche.com/911gt2rs

Dream Ferrari of Every Sports Car Enthusiast …..

German tuners Gemballa, known for their work with Porsche cars, may have taken a stab at the Ferrari Enzo. The Gemballa MIG-U1 is either a limited edition or a privately-commissioned one-off model that missed its planned debut at the Dubai Motor Show.

News of the car comes from the Ilyas and Mustafa Galadari Group, a company that runs several automotive businesses from their offices in Dubai. They claim the car has a completely new exhaust, and not just new tailpipes. The car boasts a unique rear bumper and wing, new side sills, and a front bumper. It appears the car has LED daytime lights as well.

It just wouldn’t be a Gemballa without the roof-mounted air intake. Interior mods include quilted upholstery, dual-tone floor mats, and a video screen.

We hope to find out more about this car’s performance specs in the next few days. No word yet if the Gemballa MIG-U1 will appear at the Geneva Motor Show in March.
