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.

GP of Japan: Vettel closer to the title

With Alonso out of battle from the first turn and them 25 points of victory in the pocket, Vettel could not have imagined a better result for himself and his team.
This development is the worst possible for the Spanish Ferrari driver, who remains in charge in the drivers' championship, but with a small difference from the second. Just four points, with five games left, is essentially something that gives new dynamics and interest to the league.
In the first turn of the race Kimi Raikkonen's front spoiler rested on Alonso's rear tire, destroying it. Alongside, Romein Grosjean clashed with Mark Webber and Bruno Senna over Nico Rosberg, thus imposing the entry of the safety car on the track.
Ο Vettel, having started from the pole position, maintained first place during the race, even having the speed that allowed him not to be threatened by anyone. Second, with quite a difference, Massa finished, while Kobayashi completed the podium. Jenson Button completed the top ten, Lewis Hamilton, Kimi Raikkonen, Nico Hulkenberg, Pastor Maldonado, Mark Webber and Daniel Ricciardo.

Test: Suzuki Swift 1,3 DDiS
Suzuki takes advantage of its partnership with Fiat and endows Swift with the 1,300-horsepower diesel engine from Italy, aiming for even better economy.

The Swift engine is of Italian origin and specifically comes from Fiat. With performance 75 horses, this engine meets Euro5 specifications with C02 emissions in 109 gr / km. for the five-door version (106 gr / km. for the three-door). Swift may not be exempt from fees, but contributes to the payment of minimum fees (98,1 euros per year).
It remains enjoyable
The Swift remains pleasant on the road since its proportions, the direct steering system, the sturdy frame and the properly adjusted suspension, give it sporty features. It's a little slower than that 1,2 gasoline (0,5 δλ), but extremely faster in reruns (4,1 δλ. στα 60-100 km / h with 4th and 11,2 δλ. στα 80-120 km / h with 5th). Combined with the flexibility of the model and the relative comfort of the suspensions, the diesel Swift manages to elicit flattering comments about the overall image on the road..
The price of Swift 1,3 DDiS in the most popular 5-door body starts from 13.690 euro, for the GL version with a satisfactory level of equipment. The immediately richer GLX version costs 14.890 euro. However, the price for the three-door version of Swift is 13.190 euro (GL). The difference with the corresponding one (GL) 3petrol door version is 1,700 euros.
Motor
THE 1.248 κ.εκ. The diesel engine that drives the Swift Golf is a 4-cylinder, 16valve with turbo, common supply line system and direct injection, while performing 75 horses and especially 190 Nm of torque, from just 1.750 rpm. In practice it shows a low heart rate, but after 1.900 turns has a strong pull, as a result, the driver does not have to resort to the easy-to-use selector 5 gears. However, the noise is felt even at idle, but the vibrations are limited. The engine offers fast accelerations on the go, but also from a standstill, however the big trump card is the low consumption of just 4,2 lt./100 km.
