The car is one of Mitsubishi's core businesses, in addition to cars, Mitsubishi also has other industries that are very large and diverse, ranging from ships, aircraft to rockets. Another business lines like food and fashion even Mitsubishi has it.

History of Mitsubishi actually began in the 1870s but they just made a real car in 1917, so in 2017 Mitsubishi Motors Corporations is already 100 years old. So what's the first car made by Mitsubishi? The car was Mitsubishi Model A. This car is inspired from European cars in that era. This car is also listed as the first mass-produced Japanese passenger car.

This car uses an engine with a capacity of 2,800 cc with a length of 3.8 meters and only produced as many as 30 units including the prototype. But unfortunately the model on display at this Museum was not the original model, but a replica of size 7:10. The replica in its original form are being borrowed.

The car will be built from the most advanced Mitsubishi platform today - the platform that produces the Outlander Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV).

This is how the Aston Martin Valkyrie hypercar looks

Aston Martin is still developing their latest hypercar AM-RB 001 with official name Aston Martin Valkyrie. Since the hypercar exhibited for the first time in July 2016, now Aston Martin with Red Bull Advanced Technologies and AF Racing project partners have been working intensively to develop aerodynamics, body styling and cockpit of this hypercar.

Now, Aston Martin began to leak the look of the Aston Martin Valkyrie hypercar both exterior and interior. Aston Martin Valkyrie design form is indeed quite unique with a form that is more concerned with aerodynamics.

As written in a press release on Monday, July 17, 2017, this hypercar has an upper cockpit surface with a teardrop shape and the bottom chassis with a Venturi tunnel that extends and crosses the cockpit floor. Venturi tunnel is responsible for accommodating air passing under the car and forwarded to the rear diffuser.

The Venturi tunnel section is key in generating downforce for Aston Martin Valkyrie. That way, the top of the car does not require additional aerodynamic devices that could damage the car's design aesthetics.

Aston Martin Valkyrie has a headlight that gets inspired by the functionalities of Formula 1 car components. The headlights on this car are 30-40 percent lighter than the lightest Aston Martin production headlamps currently available.

Aston Martin logo badge in this car is also called lighter than the regular Aston Martin logo badge that is considered too heavy and a simple logo sticker not suitable for Aston Martin Valkyrie car's quality. The Aston Martin Design Team found an aluminum badge carved with chemicals that only had a thickness of 70 microns. That means it's 30 percent thinner than a human hair and 99.4 percent lighter than any other Aston Martin badge.

From the photos released, on the car is not seen the rearview mirror because it has been replaced by the camera. With the camera, there will be no more aerodynamic disturbances due to the rearview mirror and make the driver's view almost undisturbed.

Turning to the interior, Aston Martin Valkyrie seat directly pinned to the chassis with the position of the legs stretched straight ahead, similar to the Formula 1 racing car and 24 Hours Le Mans Prototype. With this position, drivers and passengers will feel very safe and truly become one with the car. This car has a four-point safety belt as its standard.
The Aston Martin Design Team is highly focused on minimizing driver distraction and keeping the driver focused forward. To achieve this, the gearshift lever is placed on the steering wheel and all important information is displayed on one OLED screen. The car's steering wheel can be removed to help drivers enter and exit the car and function as an additional security device. Make it really like a real racing car. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | ASTON MARTIN | MOTORTREND | JALOPNIK]

Realizing the Future Sport Bike of CBR250RR

Loving futuristic things make Peterson Rivai successfully won the Honda Modif Contest 2016 on National Matic Class. Now, when he challenged to pour his idea on the Honda Dream Ride Project 2017, he again presents a future-themed motorcycle, which is named 'Future Sport Bike CBR250RR'.

"From the first I was interested in matters relating to the future, including for motorcycles. That's why I made the Future Sport Bike Concept because I like to fancy about future motorcycles," said the man who likes the science fiction movies to NaikMotor.

No half-hearted, to support the Future Bike concept view, the buider from Bandung-based workshop named Zone Modified Project is to make itself almost all the details on the motorcycle. Starting from the fairing, bodylight, rims, front forks, headlight, stoplamp, and turn lights at the end of the brake lever.

According to Peterson, the difficulty in the manufacturing process is to unify the concept as a whole. Because Honda gave the requirement that the characteristics of a standard motorcycle must remain visible. There are two choices, tank and headlamp (fairing). If changing the tank then it should not change the headlamp and vice versa.

"Most difficult to make a front girder. After that just combine the concept of design as a whole, between the tank, girder and fairing. Because the tank can not be changed. I choose a tank because if the bike use a standard headlamp will not fit the concept," he said.

For the body is 'matching' now turn to adjust the height of the air suspension. "If people see first will say, it's too short, can it run? So we use this air suspension. The point is to set the higher-lower position is difficult to fit the proportion of the body," he said.
After three months of making process, finally the Future Bike Concept completed and then introduced in Jogyakarta. However, Peterson admits he still wants more. "For the design is satisfied, but still feel there is less hell in detail. Yes because of time constraints actually," he concluded.

Kept spur your adrenaline on the power of two-wheeled monster and stay alive with the true safety riding. May God will forgive Your sins and so does the cops.... ••• [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | NAIK MOTOR]
