  • Also available in our country is the new version of Vespa Primavera with ABS system

    Piaggio has announced versions with an ABS system for the new Vespa Primavera and Sprint, which significantly increases the levels of active safety. The new models are also available in our country.

    Creating playgrounds for use by children with mobility problems and ensuring their access to all municipal structures and schools, both the new Vespa Primavera and the Vespa Sprint are now also available with an anti-lock braking system (ABS). The modern ABS unit intervenes on the front wheel of the new small Vespa significantly improving the active safety offered especially on poor quality pavement or on a wet road.

    The front wheel of the Vespa Primavera and Sprint ABS has a reading disc and a sensor that continuously measures its own speed and deceleration relative to that of the scooter. The sensor communicates with an electro-hydraulic control unit that activates the ABS system when the wheel slows down sharply, preventing the blocking and by extension the loss of control of the two-wheeler.

  • Η Volkswagen παρουσίασε στην έκθεση επαγγελματικών οχημάτων του Ανόβερο το Tristar concept, προκειμένου να γιορτάσει τα 30 χρόνια από το λανσάρισμα του πρώτου Syncro concept.

     

Παίρνοντας ως βάση εξέλιξης το Transporter, οι άνθρωποι της VW έφτιαξαν το Tristar concept, ένα «θηριώδες» 4κίνητο pick-up, το οποίο χάρη στο 2.0 TDI μοτέρ του και το 7άρι κιβώτιο DSG, κάνει το 0-100 km/h in 10 δλ.

THE Volkswagen παρουσίασε στην έκθεση επαγγελματικών οχημάτων του Ανόβερο το Tristar concept, προκειμένου να γιορτάσει τα 30 χρόνια από το λανσάρισμα του πρώτου Syncro concept. Το εν λόγω concept αποτελεί ένα μακρύ, 2θυρο (extended cab) pick-up όχημα, το οποίο στηρίζεται στο αμάξωμα του Transporter.

Προκειμένου να τιμήσει τον off-road χαρακτήρα του, the Tristar διαθέτει πλαστικά προστατευτικά του αμαξώματός του και τροχούς 17 ιντσών με ελαστικά της BF Goodrich, ενώ η απόστασή του από το έδαφος έχει αυξηθεί κατά 30 mm. Η εμπρόσθια του όψη έχει γίνει περισσότερο σπορτίφ, η γρίλια της μάσκας έχει αλλάξει, ενώ έχουν τοποθετηθεί προβολείς LED και ένας εργάτης.

Σε αντίθεση με την «σκληροτράχηλη» εμφάνιση του αμαξώματος, στο εσωτερικό επικρατεί μια πολυτελής ατμόσφαιρα, με δερμάτινα καθίσματα, μεταλλικό διάκοσμο και …καφετιέρα espresso. Έχει τοποθετηθεί ένα tablet 20 ιντσών και ένα προηγμένο σύστημα infotainment.

The Tristar concept παίρνει κίνηση από ένα 2λιτρο TDI μηχανικό σύνολο, return 204 horses and 450 Nm. Μέσω αυτόματου κιβωτίου DSG 7 relations, η κίνηση μεταδίδεται και στους 4 wheels (4MOTION), επιτρέποντας στο «θηριώδες» pick-up να πραγματοποιεί το 0-100 χλμ./ώρα σε μόλις 10 δλ., με την τελική του ταχύτητα να ορίζεται στα 185 km / h.

The "shield" of your pocket!

With the price of unleaded rising, the use of alternative fuels and especially LPG seems to be the optimal solution. Find out everything you need before resorting to any conversion.

Reducing the costs required for the use of vehicles and emissions, are the main axes of action that characterize our time. For that reason, car manufacturers have embarked on a road race to provide solutions to these issues, responding to the calls of the time.
These solutions include LPG as an alternative form of fuel, since its basic features are reduced to its price (located at about half of unleaded gasoline) and the smaller pollutants produced during combustion. For these reasons, LPG (LPG) is gaining more and more ground, both at the level of car companies (since most manufacturers now have factory systems), as well as at the level of after market conversions (the latter category is also the most widespread).
In GREECE, our "acquaintance" with this type of fuel counts a minimum of time, compared to other countries where the presence of LPG models has been around for several decades. Based on market estimates, in global level, are currently circulating over 15 millions of vehicles using LPG (about half of them are in Europe), with demand showing upward trends.
In our tribute, you will have the opportunity to read all the details regarding the installation and use of LPG, but also to see the points where you should pay special attention.

Although there is now intense mobility, the supply network with LPG, needs further development. Still, lately it has been significantly enriched by network of installers LPG kit.

Basic characteristics of LPG
Although it is odorless and colorless, includes osmogenic substances so that any leakage can be easily detected.
It has a high content of octane (about 110).
Its chemical composition consists of two hydrocarbons (propane and butane).
It has a high ignition temperature, 450-510 b. C (against 257 b. C of gasoline).
Does not contain lead and therefore does not damage the internal parts of the engine.
The supply is done in conditions very high pressure and then reduced with special accessories.

Cost of use 8 gasoline, diesel and LPG models for 5 years.
