 HYUNDAI ELANTRA EVOLUTION:

First generation (J1; 1990–1995)

Second generation (J2, J3; 1995–2000)

Third generation (XD; 2000–2006)

Fourth generation (HD; 2006–2010)

Fifth generation (MD; 2010–present)


The Elantra was formerly marketed as the Lantra in Australia and some European markets. In Australia, this was due to the similarly named Mitsubishi Magna Elante model.  This gave rise to disagreement from other motor manufacturers, and the name was standardized as "Elantra" worldwide in 2001 (with the exception being Korea and Malaysia still selling under the name "Avante").
The fifth generation Avante, codenamed "MD", debuted at the 2010 Busan International Motor Show in April 2010. It features a 1.6L gasoline direct-injection engine, producing 103 kW (138 hp) and 167 Nm (123 lb-ft) torque, mated to a new 6-speed automatic or a 6-speed manual transmission. The design continues Hyundai's "fluidic sculpture" styling theme first seen in the 2011 Sonata. The new model went on sale in August 2010 in South Korea and is expected to begin selling between end of 2010 and early 2011 as a 2011 model. The US version of the fifth generation Elantra debuted at 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show. It is powered by a new 1.8L Nu engine producing 148 hp (145 hp-PZEV) and 131 lb-ft (130 lb-ft-PZEV). EPA estimates for the new Elantra are 29 mpg-US (8.1 L/100 km; 35 mpg-imp) in the city and 40 mpg-US (5.9 L/100 km; 48 mpg-imp) on the highway. The fuel economy was increased with a low coefficient of drag, just 0.28. The Elantra will be available in two trims level-GLS and Limited. Some of the premium features will be heated front and rear seats, proximity key entry with electronic push button start with immobilizer, navigation with touch screen.

2011 Kymco Quannon 150
 
2011 Kymco Quannon 150  With Pictures. A getaway to India will let you know one thing undoubtably – Indians consider their 2011 Kymco Quannon 150 sport motorcycles seriously. As magic as a few of these bikes tend to be, none in the 150s get their strategy to America. But there is a single exemption – that 2011 Kymco Quannon 150.
Made through Kymco : Taiwanese child scooter and ATV professionals – that Quannon 150 is quite unlike any sportbike purchased from the united states.  First elements first : the 2011 Kymco Quannon 150 is powered with a 149cc (no, not 150cc because the name implies) SOHC four-stroke continuous-duty motor that employs forced-air soothing (just like many of the Kymco scooters in addition to ATVs). Don’t obtain idea which it’s any high-performance continuous-duty motor – it’s not at all. At redline within fifth products, you’re thinking about 60 mph.
Within California, the 2011 Kymco Quannon 150 is not freeway-legal. Nonetheless, there certainly is a great application for any motorcycle : a starter sportbike for any most careful of keepers (or that owner’s parents). Even for any beginner, the Quannon 150 is not intimidating. Kymco offers tuned the insufficient thumper that will put out the majority its power between 6000 rpm in addition to its 8000 rpm redline.
2011 Kymco Quannon 150
 
Down below 6000 rpm, the 2011 Kymco Quannon 150 produces only enough power to advance it… slowly but surely. Even as 2000 rpm powerband, there is not anything that may startle any rider. It only will pull through those website speeds instead of struggle. So, if you are looking at a learner bike that may not intimidate within any conditions, the Quannon is actually perfect.
As well as, if you’re a parent or guardian whose youngster (or daughter) would like a Hayabusa so you think his / her first-choice bicycle is reflective regarding his common sense, you may put him for a Quannon ONE HUNDRED FIFTY and relaxation easy which he won’t have a good number of opportunities to perform anything ignorant at any speed over 60 mph (75 mph when he’s ready to ignore that redline : more about that later).
The sole downside into the 2011 Kymco Quannon 1501‘s powerplant for any new rider is the fact that it won’t coach you throttle manage. It necessitates healthy doses regarding throttle with regard to forward activity. From any stop, you can’t simply roll to the throttle since you let out the clutch system. The engine needs to be revved and also the clutch slipped. This may not be really which difficult, and because of the power is actually limited, it is just a skill that may be learned rapidly and correctly.
There is actually zero possibility that you’ll unwanted wheelies as well as the butt breaking loosely. The only risk from stops is actually inadequate throttle and also the bike stalling. Luckily for us, the starter fires that Quannon right back up and you will be on your way. The framework is more than up into the task in the Quannon 150′s power output. Handling is quite good in the canyons, and also the Quannon will hang the idea out about tight downhill roads.
You heard right – downhill roads. Proceeding uphill, the bike will struggle unless it really is in which 6-8000 rpm range. In that sweet spot, it moves along acceptable, but gravity nonetheless holds sway. At once, the 140 Cheng Shin backed tire is more than able to handle every foot-pound regarding torque that one-lunger may produce. Just maintain the throttle pinned and also the reliable (though not slick) five-speed gearbox doing work. The Quannon weighs less than 300 pounds (dry claimed) in addition to, along which has a 53. 3-inch wheelbase, is actually as nimble since that noises.
Cornering clearance meets anything any novice will throw from it, and perhaps experienced riders keep coming back with any smile after they learn just how well that 2011 Kymco Quannon 150 will corner. The simplest way to experiment the Kymco Quannon’s cornering prowess within on longer downhill owns. As acceleration doesn’t skyrocket you from corner-to-corner, added time is used tucking in and diving through corners by using abandon.

New HTC Phone – Freestyle Available in February from AT&T

new htc phone
HTC’s new Freestyle model will hit your local AT&T store shelves on February 13th of 2011.  The phone runs on Qualcomm’s Brew MP operating system (rather than Android or Windows) and comes with an integrated HTML browser—which is nice when compared to other phones and their limited web capacities.


Digital Camera – Digital Camera Nikon Coolpix S9100 Zooms Past the Competition

Digital Camera - Digital Camera
Okay, so the title is just a corny pun but the real story behind the launch of Nikon’s new Coolpix S9100 is the zoom lens.  It can reach out and touch someone with the 18x zoom and still capture 12.1 megapixels with the click of a button.  With that type of range you’d expect a fairly hefty chassis on this point-and-shoot camera but the body isn’t much larger than any of the other Nikon Coolpix cameras.


Dell Launches Latitude XT3 Convertible

Need the functionality of a laptop but love the ergonomics and portability of atablet?  Dell’s new Latitude XT3 convertible may be just what the doctor ordered.  The massive 13 inch screen actually rotates and folds back on itself converting this fairly powerful laptop into a tablet that outspecs most of its competition.


Marvel Versus Fighting Pad Just In Time For Marvel / Capcom 3

Marvel / Capcom 3
This Marvel Versus Fighting Pad looks more like a Super Nintendo controller than it does a modern gaming peripheral but that’s sort of the point.  While the gaming controller has evolved to fit first person shooter style games over the years, folks who prefer fighting games have been left behind.  This gamepad brings it all back into perspective and features redesigned button placement, micro switches on the (single) thumbstick, and some radically over-the-top Marvel graphics.


MetroPCS Launches the First LTE Phone (Samsung Galaxy Indulge) 
 
 
 

The Galaxy Indulge is the latest smartphone from Samsung and boasts some pretty impressive but not Earth-shattering spec’s.  The 3.5 inch touch screen/QWERTY keyboard phone runs on Android 2.2 and displays things quite beautifully on the TFT LCD.


Acer Makes 3D Computing Affordable

The New Acer GN245HQ monitors may just look like another computer monitor trying desperately to cash in on the 3D craze that seems to be sweeping the nation, but it’s not.  It’s something very different.


Technocel PowerPak Duo Gives You USB Charging On The Go

USB Charging
High tech toys are fun until they run out of juice.  Charging while you’re on the go is a pain in the butt, especially when you’re stuck to an outlet.  So why not create a power pack that you can use to charge all your fun mobile devices while actually staying mobile?  Oh wait, Technocel’s already done that with their PowerPak.  But that’s not the big news.  The big news is that they’ve already released an upgraded version of this handy little device called the Duo.


New Gadgets Technology – HP’s Digital Sketch and Pocket Whiteboard

New Gadgets Technology
The new Digital Sketch from HP allows teacher’s to connect wirelessly to laptops and sketch out problems, ideas, and assignments with a few simple natural “writing” and “drawing” motions rather than slaving away at a keyboard.  Not only does this make conveying complex ideas (especially diagrams) a heck of a lot easier, it also gets rid of the technological chokepoint that many modern classrooms face.

ASUS Lamborghini External Drives Overpriced and Underowered

External Drives
ASUS has given us some of the best (and some of the worst) portable computing options around.  However, there has been a disturbing trend in the company’s releases as of late:  ASUS is bumping up their price tags!  This latest release, the ASUS Lamborghini External Hard Drive is no exception.
