#turbo s 0-60

[beantownbrownie]

Here’s a lil’ sneak peek at a nice one; this is my daily, a 2017 Jaguar “X260” XF 20d Prestige. It just underwent a full paint correction and detail in prep for sale on Cars & Bids.

This one is finished in Ultimate Black Metallic over Latte/Espresso with Burl Walnut Gloss and Morse Code Aluminum. It’s equipped with its namesake 20d engine, a 2.0l turbodiesel I4, pushing 181 HP and 318 lb-ft of torque to all four wheels via a ZF 8-speed automatic.

It’s good for a moderate 0-60 sprint of 7.9 seconds, a top speed of 121 MPH, and upwards of 40 MPG. Where its promise really lives is all in the midrange; like most diesel engines, low-end torque is constantly there, but the immense buildup of power that comes on towards the middle of the rev range is what really keeps these pulling and pushing. Couple that natural diesel torque curve with the forced induction of a turbocharger, and this power train comes alive around 1,700 RPMs. Keeping the transmission in S and the drive modes in Dynamic will place the car squarely in that rev band and keep it there as long as possible, always spooling the turbo and maintaining a slightly higher engine speed.

The resulting performance is intoxicating; carving the winding backgrounds of Carlisle, navigating the undulating landscape of Stowe, and overtaking leisurely traffic in Manchester will never once feel slow, or lethargic, or dangerous. You just ease into the accelerator, listen for the telltale whistle, dig in, and feel as an immense surge propels your forward. It’s a charismatic power plant, and one that keeps you on your toes - always keeping you acutely aware of when and where power builds, where it wanes, how it wants to go, and where you can hand off the momentum and torque of the engine to the transmission for a kick-down.

It’s immensely helpful that Jaguar’s complex suspension setup and highly tailored geometry give this car a ride only margins away from a Mercedes-Benz, with the eager spirit of an Audi, and the sharpness of a BMW. With a nearly even weight split, a wider track than many of its primary competitors, and one of the most capable AWD systems outside of Audi Quattro, Subaru Symmetrical, and Alfa/Maserati Q4, and this car definitely poses a unique proposition for the kind of buyer that genuinely wants a nice, daily drivable, efficient, and reliable car, but with all the marks of a sporty and engaging drive, when needed. It’s a car that has usable power at all times, but especially so when you’ve reached the apex of a turn and you rocket out with immediate power on tap, or when you feel the ground rising below you and the car hunkers down and starts pulling like a Mack truck even as it climbs that hill.

In reality, the ingenuity of this car and JLR’s Ingenium engine is that it feels only a step away from a more traditional gasoline engine, but the elements that make it a diesel are not lost either. Its power is similar to any gas counterpart, but there’s far more drama and flair and theatrics with it. In some parts, it harkens back to much earlier turbocharged cars that would drive quite normally until boost kicked in, in outrageous amounts, all at once, and suddenly the entire characteristic of the experience would change. It’s the same reason why I bought not one but two (nearly) identical diesel Jaguars!

After getting t-boned in my XE 20d Prestige, I purchased an E 63 AMG that was flawless in every regard. It was exceptionally well-equipped and was by far the most insane car I’d ever owned, but after barely six months, I sold it and purchased this XF, shipping it all the way from California to Massachusetts in the height of 2022’s wildfires and market inflation, and it’s been a blast ever since.

This one is rather uniquely equipped with options such as the Comfort & Convenience and Technology Packages, plus additional à la carte options, giving it soft-close doors, heated/ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, a heated steering wheel, power liftgate, 10.2” InControl Touch Pro, 12.3” digital cockpit, 17-speaker/825W Meridian Surround Sound, and 19” Axis 14-spoke wheels.

But, with all that said, it is time for another new experience, and with the fun of summer right around the corner, I think it’s time to part ways with this charming Brit for something a little more exotic. So, I leave you now with a few photos that will be featured on Cars & Bids in the coming weeks:

Here’s a quick spot of the engine and some documentation:

The Future of Luxury Cars: How Electric Vehicles Are Redefining Premium Automotive Experiences

The automotive industry is undergoing a significant transformation, and luxury cars are at the forefront of this evolution. The shift towards electric vehicles (EVs) is not only driven by environmental concerns but also by advancements in technology and changing consumer preferences. As luxury car brands embrace electrification, they are redefining what it means to own a premium vehicle.

4. Sustainable Luxury: The Eco-Friendly Future of High-End Automobiles

Sustainability is no longer just a buzzword; it’s a core value for the next generation of luxury car buyers. The luxury automotive sector is embracing sustainable practices, from production processes to the materials used in vehicle interiors.

Eco-Friendly Materials: Luxury electric vehicles often feature interiors crafted from sustainable materials like vegan leather, recycled plastics, and responsibly sourced wood. Brands like BMW and Volvo are leading the charge with eco-conscious designs that don’t compromise on quality or aesthetics.

Carbon-Neutral Manufacturing: Several luxury carmakers are committed to reducing their carbon footprint. Companies like Audi and Mercedes-Benz are working towards carbon-neutral production facilities, using renewable energy sources and reducing waste.

Recycling and Circular Economy: The shift towards electric vehicles also brings attention to the lifecycle of batteries and vehicle components.

Future models are expected to offer ranges exceeding 500 miles on a single charge, with charging times reduced to minutes instead of hours.

Autonomous Driving: Full autonomy is on the horizon, with luxury automakers heavily investing in self-driving technology. The integration of AI and advanced sensors will enable fully autonomous luxury vehicles, offering a new level of convenience and freedom for drivers.

Hyper-Personalization: The luxury car of the future will be highly customizable, with AI learning the habits and preferences of its owner. Expect even more advanced features like biometric recognition, health monitoring, and predictive maintenance alerts that cater to the driver’s needs.

Luxury Mobility as a Service: As the concept of car ownership changes, luxury brands are exploring subscription models and shared mobility solutions. This trend allows consumers to enjoy a fleet of luxury vehicles without the commitment of ownership, offering flexibility and variety.

These innovations point to a future where luxury electric vehicles are not just a niche market but the mainstream choice for discerning buyers.

6. The Role of Pre-Owned Luxury Cars in the EV Revolution

While new luxury electric vehicles are capturing headlines, the pre-owned market is also playing a crucial role in making these premium experiences more accessible. For buyers who want to experience the benefits of luxury EVs without the hefty price tag, exploring options at a Pre Owned Luxury Car Dealer is a smart move.

Certified pre-owned luxury electric vehicles offer several advantages:

Cost-Effective: Pre-owned luxury cars provide significant savings compared to new models, making high-end features and performance more affordable.

Thorough Inspection and Warranty: Certified pre-owned programs ensure that vehicles are rigorously inspected and come with extended warranties, giving buyers peace of mind.

Sustainability: Choosing a pre-owned luxury EV aligns with the principles of sustainability by extending the life of a high-quality vehicle and reducing the demand for new production.

For those in Kerala, connecting with a reliable Pre Owned Dealer in Kerala offers access to a wide range of luxury electric vehicles that combine prestige, innovation, and value.

7. Conclusion: The Electrifying Future of Luxury Automobiles

The transition to electric vehicles is more than just a technological shift; it’s a reimagining of what luxury means in the automotive world. As performance, sustainability, and smart technology converge, luxury electric vehicles are setting new benchmarks for the industry. From advanced driver assistance systems and cutting-edge infotainment to eco-friendly materials and carbon-neutral production, luxury carmakers are redefining the premium experience.

The future of luxury cars is undoubtedly electric, and this shift opens up exciting possibilities for both new buyers and those exploring the pre-owned market. With continuous innovations on the horizon, the next generation of luxury vehicles promises to deliver an experience that is not only opulent but also responsible, intelligent, and future-ready. As the world of luxury cars evolves, one thing is clear: the road ahead is electric.

This guy does not work for mclaren but it's kinda been a little accurate it is going 100 to 200 it's a tough speed he's been a politician in United States for 40 years I did not have yours in about vice presidential nominee JD Vance and he said to be honest I don't know him I don't think I've ever met him who's gonna take it over 'cause it's a huge **** they're talking about the bases in the USA and this is the Max plans to put him back in and what we say is yeah we've already done it and it comes out like crap OK idiots there interfering with everything but regardless it's not that fast 

= Zero to 60 and 5.9 seconds

damn slo And our daughter is laughing she says you have to put the kick car on the mclaren probably

= Quarter mile 11.1 seconds

= Top speed 200 50 mph.

With our kid which we have not formally named yet and the max I kinda dig in the female name argument and we like it they like it but he wanted to name his own company something of his but Hera thinks she might start a different one that's more like this smyth to fight teh female trumpsters we agree.  And will help with the design and make it a little bit cooler and she agrees she wants to make it look really cool no this fix the rear use bigger tires in the back and pump it out a little not massive changes but the back end would look like a mid engine and not extravagant even though his is gonna look a little bit snazzy and it's true

our kit car We provide everything but the donor car and the donor car must have an engine with lower miles that works well the transmission works well driveframe and the wheels hubs are in decent shape and we have to change the suspension yes and the brake system but not the brake fluid delivery and the controls are pretty much gonna stay. We will change the gages and the gear shifting and steering mechanism. Wiring harnesses mostly will be changed. We will provide a full shell a full roll cage and cage where required for a drop on a one step process where you don't have to attach anything to the shell except for the glass and some interior components. The other components you have to put in to the bottom of the car which would be the gear shifting area the center console in other words and carpeting the lower dashboard and upper dashboard and seats and there will be 4 by the way. we start with the And she says no we're gonna do both cars the same way and they look different and it's true hers will look more like a girl's car and they do have a style and it's a supercar style and it will look very hot to guys too.

Some people might use the new car which is about $15,000. You'll be retaining your air conditioning the original stereo will be removed and you're responsible for that which is nice because people will put expensive systems in the other things you're responsible for would be to register and insure it but we'll provide DOT papers there's a list of items that they require we will have all that documentation included in the package and for each state in other words every state will be covered and it's not hard there's like three states that have extra but we like those things and we'll put in a booklet so you can't lose it and they have a checklist but you have in the book all the proper documentation if they required you photocopying the book one page at a time and it's only gonna be like 15 pages. It's a great way to do it because people won't lose anything. Also when you're at the DOT they'll ask you why you're buying it what you're doing it for and the obvious answer is you cannot afford a car that's a sports car and then this is a cheap sports car. and that's the pat answer any other answers usually won't be given approval. There are people who say the body is ruined and I need a new one and this is one of the only kids I can find that's a very acceptable answer. It still sees four people. Include a complete safety package that meets and mostly exceeds all the DOT requirements as does the exhaust and top end and glass and safety enclosure and roll cage remember you have a roll cage the crash rating is about an 8.5 whereas the crash rating on the 4 door Ford or Chevy or Dodge the donor car is about a 3.8 you're going to be telling them that too it's just in the documentation. And they have applications online and you can look at the booklet and we go through how to fill it out.

I'm putting this project in the pipe we're very serious about it. We talked to the kit car people today because we had to. To this massive guy is going to take it and they're helping and they said this is a concept and he was not aware hundred percent of it the concept is not true but he wasn't aware they do the car and it's just really mad at it and the people take advantage and they're so stupid they think is worth nothing and won't even treat him with respect now for having ideas that work very well. They are happy to accept it and we're going to run tests out where we are and we have cities and we're gonna put them in the cities and it is a go. And he says the testing would have to be done kind of in like erase car area in Kansas where it is still recognized as a city that can go to and it sort of recognized that but he wants us to do it for his order and hers and to stop flexing with it and to see what the hell it is and to get middle men and line it up and do it and he wants it to go quickly as if it's urging because it might be we don't have anything like that out there and we have to see it here what the deal is. And we don't wanna miss the big picture you can hear it we do say if we don't clash it we're gonna hear a bigger picture He wants the guys to get down there and build it and get it ready and say we're ready to test it and get the kit car people on it so I'm gonna send it into Olympus but I said approve it by tomorrow morning

Porsche 911 Hybrid: Existential Threat Alert!

Air-cooled Porsche purists look away now. The 911 Hybrid is officially about to become A Thing. Spotted during track testing and later confirmed by Porsche CEO Oliver Blume, the hybrid is the first time anything other than a conventional petrol engine has powered this motoring icon.

The 1965 Newport Folk Festival won’t be the first thing that springs to mind when considering this seismic shift in Porsche 911 thinking but it’s a better parallel than you might think. Because it was here, nearly 60 years ago, that Bob Dylan shocked music fans by (gasp) playing an electric guitar rather than the traditional acoustic number that had made his name. The shockwaves still resonate today.

So, consider the potential ramifications for this (probably inevitable) move by the Stuttgart supercar manufacturer. Because according to recent press – and their own Annual Sustainability Report –Porsche’s own Dylan moment will be to add a third element to the water-cooled vs air-cooled debate that keeps the chat rooms buzzing.

According to the motoring press, it’s part of a wider ‘facelift’ programme for the whole 992 incarnation of the 911 range. Other newsworthy additions to the stable include a 911 Cabriolet, a 911 Turbo S, an updated 911 GT3 and a reimagined GT Touring saloon. But it’s the hybrid that’ll grab the headlines, for sure. So, what’s it like?

First things first.

The structure mirrors the current Turbo S model, suggesting a performance hybrid in the same vein as the Cayenne and Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid models: superficially true to the originals, but with a big secret tucked away.

As we’re some months away from a showroom near you, full details are still hard to come by. But the Internet seems to agree that the power will come from a 3.8-litre twin-turbo flat-six

allied with the 136hp electric motor found in other hybrid Porsches to generate up to 800hp worth of oomph.

Fully charged.

While the batteries will obviously add to the payload it’s expected to match and potentially beat the 2.7 seconds it takes the 911 Turbo S to get from 0-60.

And while there is bound to be some mutterings among the purists – remember, Dylan was booed at Newport – Porsche are not for changing and have faith in the new model.

“The high-performance hybrid seamlessly continues innovative development of the 911 drive,” Frank Moser, who oversees the 911 and 718 lines, said in a statement. “This benefits the driver whenever they’re accelerating. We therefore have a technology that will prepare us for future emission standards.”

Another motoring title speculates that the modified twin-turbocharged 3.0-litre flat-six and a 400-volt hybrid system powering the electrified 911 will feature an integrated starter-generator developed in conjunction with EV maker Rimac, in whom Porsche owns a significant stake.

Full wheel drive.

Unlike other hybrid or fully electric Porsches, the electric motor in this setup will be mounted on the front rather than the rear axle, giving the car all four wheels to distribute those extra 349 kilowatts.

The reimagined 911 is just one of four major launches with a Taycan Turbo GT, a new Panamera, and the all-electric Macan expected before year’s end. So, is it any good? The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind, as a certain someone might say.

The Audi Q7 receives modest but meaningful updates for 2024, improving this three-row luxury SUV with new technology, styling refinements and additional standard features. Now entering its seventh model year since the full redesign for 2017, the 2024 Q7 continues balancing composed handling, lavish accommodations and family-friendly practicality. Slotting above Audi's smaller Q5 as the brand's flagship utility vehicle, the Q7 competes directly with stalwarts like the BMW X5, Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class and Volvo XC90. This echelon of luxury SUV prides itself on blending premium amenities with real driving enjoyment, and the 2024 Q7 aims to uphold this expectation. Let's take a closer look at what's new and notable on the 2024 Audi Q7 as this polished people hauler carries its winning formula forward. 2024 Audi Q7 Pricing and Trims Overview The 2024 Audi Q7 lineup ascends through three main trim levels: Premium, Premium Plus and Prestige, each available with a choice of four- or six-cylinder engines. Base pricing starts at $60,695 for the four-cylinder Q7 45 Premium and reaches $74,795 for the top Prestige model with the V6. Quattro all-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic transmission are standard across the board. With a starting price under $65,000, the Premium Plus 45 model makes for an appealing balance of features and value, adding leather seating, a power tailgate and Audi's Virtual Cockpit digital gauge cluster over the base model. The V6 isn't mandatory, but opens access to the Q7's max 7,700-lb tow rating. 2024 Audi Q7 Engines and Performance The Q7 offers a choice of two forced-induction powertrains: a 261-hp turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder or 335-hp turbo 3.0-liter V6, badged 45 and 55 respectively. The V6 delivers brisk acceleration, dispatching 0-60 mph in around 5.0 seconds in Car and Driver testing. An eight-speed automatic transmission integrates tightly with either engine. Standard Quattro all-wheel drive provides year-round grip and confidence, while available four-wheel steering noticeably enhances agility for an SUV this large. Air suspension further elevates composure and ride comfort when desired. On twisty roads, the Q7 feels planted and eager for its class. 2024 Audi Q7 Fuel Economy and MPG Efficiency ratings for 2024 are not yet published, but expect slightly improved MPG versus outgoing 2022 Q7 models. The turbo four-cylinder should achieve ratings around 19 mpg city, 25 highway and 21 mpg combined per the EPA cycle. In past testing, we recorded over 26 mpg in real-world highway driving from the four-cylinder Q7. While the V6 dips to around 17 mpg city and 21 highway, it delivers strong passing power while providing enough range to avoid frequent fills. Look for a driving range of over 400 miles with the 19.8-gallon tank. Impressive refinement keeps the Q7 feeling efficient regardless of chosen powertrain. 2024 Audi Q7 Exterior Styling and Dimensions The current Q7 generation introduced more chiseled lines and taught surfaces compared to its softly rounded predecessor, and the 2024 model keeps this athletic appearance largely intact. Audi's imposing trapezoidal grille and sharp LED headlights provide a focused gaze. Measuring 199.3 inches long with a 117.9-inch wheelbase, the Q7 casts a large footprint, but creased surfacing prevents boxiness. Height comes in at 68.5 inches without roof rails, allowing access to most garages. Exterior dimensions will carry over unchanged for 2024 as this generation Q7 remains in its prime. Seating seven passengers with available third-row seating, the 2024 Audi Q7 presents a refined, carefully crafted interior design. Even base versions warrant their premium badge, with upholstery stitching and metallic accents setting an upscale ambiance. The Q7 treats occupants to first-class accommodations, particularly in top Prestige trim. 2024 Audi Q7 Seating and Cargo Space The Q7’s three rows provide seating for seven, with generous head and legroom in both front and second rows.

Third-row space is tight and best suited for kids. Audi's easy-entry second row seats allow access to the rearmost row without removing child seats. Cargo room stands at 14.2 cubic feet behind the third row. Folding the 50/50 split third row opens 48.6 cubic feet, expandable to 72.5 cubic feet with the second row stowed. The Q7 offers similar cargo versatility to competitors like the Acura MDX and Volvo XC90. 2024 Audi Q7 Interior Features and Technology Even base Q7 models come well-equipped with leatherette upholstery, tri-zone climate control and Audi’s MMI touch response infotainment system. A 10.1-inch touchscreen is standard, with available virtual cockpit digital instrumentation. Options include ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel and 23-speaker Bang & Olufsen premium audio. Standard tech like Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, satellite radio and 4G LTE Wi-Fi keeps passengers entertained and connected on the go. Available upgrades add conveniences like wireless charging, rear seat entertainment and multi-color ambient lighting. 2024 Audi Q7 Safety Features and Ratings The 2024 Q7 provides reassuring safety, with standard forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection. Available aids include lane keeping assist, blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, surround view cameras and parking sensors. Crash test results from the IIHS award the current Q7 the top Good rating in every category, though it misses the Top Safety Pick+ tier due to headlights. The NHTSA gives four and five star ratings on all assessments. Safety remains a key focus for this family-centered SUV. 2024 Audi Q7 Performance, Handling and Towing All Q7 models feature a responsive adaptive air suspension system and Quattro all-wheel drive for confident year-round handling. Available rear-wheel steering enhances maneuverability and makes this large SUV feel nimble. Towing capacity reaches a max 7,700 pounds for V6 models when properly equipped. Sized 21 or 22-inch summer performance tires unlock the Q7’s athletic potential, with sporty grip and composed cornering balance belying its 5,000 lb curb weight. Yet even on large wheels, the adjustable air suspension maintains a compliant ride. This versatility makes the Q7 engaging to drive for its class. 2024 Audi Q7 Warranty and Maintenance Coverage The 2024 Q7 is protected by a 4-year/50,000 mile new vehicle limited warranty. Powertrain coverage spans 4 years/50,000 miles as well, on par with most luxury rivals but short of Acura’s longer 6-year term. There’s no free scheduled maintenance, with Audi instead offering pre-paid plans. Overall, the Q7 provides reassurance for buyers through generous warranty protection as standard. Carefully following factory maintenance procedures is advised to keep this advanced SUV running smoothly long term. How the Audi Q7 Compares to Luxury SUV Rivals The 2024 Audi Q7 matches up closely against competitors like the BMW X5, Mercedes-Benz GLE and Volvo XC90. The BMW offers a sportier driving feel, while the Benz touts the latest tech and refinement. The Volvo provides similar space but fewer powertrain options. Compared to the X5, the Q7 has less agile handling but a roomier third row. The GLE 350 is quicker with its turbocharged I6, but lacks the Q7’s composed air suspension. None of these rivals hold a distinct advantage, making the Q7 very competitive. 2024 Audi Q7 Reliability and Owner Satisfaction Audi models traditionally rate well for reliability, and the Q7 follows suit with above-average dependability. The turbo V6 and 8-speed transmission prove robust. Common issues involve the air suspension, electronics and some interior fittings based on owner feedback. Overall owner satisfaction is high, with praise for the refined, capable driving experience. Fuel economy, passenger room and standard features also earn kudos in reviews. Some find ride quality a bit stiff with larger wheels. The Q7 makes for a satisfying long-term luxury SUV.

FAQs What are the engines offered? A turbo 2.0L 4-cylinder and turbo 3.0L V6. Both offer strong acceleration. Does the Q7 have 3 rows? Yes, it seats 7 passengers with an available third row. But tight fit. How’s the gas mileage? Up to 25 mpg combined for the four-cylinder, according to Audi estimates. How expensive is it? Base models start around $61,000. But options can push the price over $80,000. Is the Q7 reliable? The current generation has proven reliable so far, apart from some minor issues. What ride height does it have? Up to 9.6 inches of ground clearance with the air suspension raised. Any major changes for 2024? No, mostly technology additions and small styling updates. New packages. When will it go on sale? Expect a 2024 Q7 release date in late 2023 as a 2024 model year vehicle. What’s the seating capacity? 7 passengers split between three rows when equipped with the third row. Does Q7 have automated driving features? No. It offers advanced driver aids but no hands-free highway driving mode. Driver must remain attentive. The composed and luxurious 2024 Audi Q7 retains its winning formula, providing a satisfying blend of coddling cabin, confident driving dynamics and family-friendly versatility. Modest updates help keep it competitive against other luxury SUV titans. Interested buyers can expect a smooth and refined, if a tad conservative, driving experience. #Wiack #Car #CarInsurance #CarRental #CarPrice #AutoLoans
