Chevrolet has been building several small cars for a long time and their lineup includes three for you to choose from, the Spark, Sonic and Cruze. The Sonic is the middle of the pack of these three and gives you the small size you want to drive with a bit more elbow room than the Spark. The Sonic comes in either hatchback or sedan forms to give you the right drive for you. Not only is this a car that comes to you in a small size and with a small price, but it does come with a large amount of great tech features for your driving pleasure.
Taking the Tesla Model Even Farther
Several months ago Tesla unveiled the Summon feature for some of their vehicles and it seems this feature is about to be taken even farther. The Summon feature is one in which an owner can use a remote key fob and have the vehicle open the garage door, move itself into the driveway and be turned on with the climate controls running to give the owner the ability to enjoy heading out the front door to a warmed up or cooled down vehicle. This feature is so unique that another company is working to bring this along with other technologies to the Nashville area.
Protecting a Car from a Hurricane
The recent occurrence of Hurricane Matthew left many people across several states without power, with flooded homes and cities and downed a ton of trees and limbs. The damage that can be done when a tree falls on a vehicle, a home or across a fence is horrific and it can be worse when life is at stake. In order to protect property and people from potential harm many brought items into their homes to avoid them from becoming projectiles during the storm or from being the target of flying objects or falling trees that could potentially destroy property.
Not Your Ordinary RV
The idea of taking the family on a fun RV trip around the country appeals to many of us. Having a place to sleep at night that has air conditioning and can be parked at a variety of campgrounds around the country is the way to see the country from the road as you ride high above and see what this beautiful country has to offer. While the romance of being able to sit high and ride with a huge steering wheel and vehicle at your control sounds great, thousands of miles of right lane, slower speed driving doesn’t sound like a lot of fun at all.
Tuned Up and Turned Out
Hyundai came to SEMA prepared to be one of the most impressive automakers at the show and certainly did just that. While many automakers show off bolted on parts and add-ons that you can buy in the aftermarket world, Hyundai brought out a large number of amazing concepts that will hopefully be offered in some form on the market in the future. This year there were five unique concepts that were offered by Hyundai to be something special to give us cars we will want to drive along with something that’s out there and outrageous for us to marvel at.
Tune it Up and Take a Look
The SEMA show is a place that automakers go each year to show off their new vehicles and what they can do to tune them up and bring more performance to the market in a variety of ways. At the beginning of the year Lexus showed us the new LC500 as a model that would become a production sports car and offer us some exciting style and high end performance to be a luxury sports coupe that anyone would want to drive. This unveiling at the Detroit Auto Show at the beginning of the year got our engines churning about Lexus, but this new model that was taken to SEMA revs up the excitement in a big way.
A Beer Delivery Without a Driver
Technological advancements and new discoveries are part of what has made this country great for many decades as well as over the past few centuries. What would it be like if early explorers didn’t pave the Oregon Trail or head north and south to find out what was on the other side of a mountain or river? Could our country have stopped at the Mississippi River, would we have had only the original thirteen colonies? It’s hard to say, but the discovery of new areas of the country spurned the advancement of new technologies and discoveries of what we can use to make our lives easier.
The Sleeper Pick
When you hear about a “Sleeper Pick” in Fantasy Football circles you know that means someone has picked a player that is not expected to perform well, but somehow, even if it’s only for one week, they play extremely well and give that person lots of points. In the automotive world there are some sleepers out there as cars that are able to give us great power numbers and feel like they should have been the ones chosen to drive more often. These sleepers fly under the radar and show up when we least expect them to, giving us more of what we want.
The Tesla Announcement We’ve Been Waiting For
Recently Tesla CEO Elon Musk teased that a new update would be offered on October 17th and true to his word he has announced what this new item is. Those who have been waiting for the next part of the Model 3 to be shown are unfortunately disappointed, but they can’t be too upset considering this announcement gave us the information that will help keep Tesla at the head of the table when it comes to the integration of autonomous software for the future. The new is that ever car that will be built now and in the future will have the equipment necessary to offer fully autonomous driving.
