With Covid-19 MPV Honda Invents Power Slide Doors that Open with Gestures

Article Written Meishun Sei

As if Honda has foreseen the disastrous pandemic throughout the world, they will launch a new version of MPV which has a very effective feature in this era. Honda will implement touchless power slide doors into the new model of Odyssey. Based on the information which has been updated in Honda teaser site, the new Odyssey will have some changes on its exterior which appeal more elegancy of the body. Furthermore, the changes also bring up some new functions that might bring a new trend in this era. The most profound feature of this model is the “Gesture Control” power slide doors.

The gesture control power slide doors will be active when move your hand toward rear side from the rear window frame of the body. Not only “Gesture control” which enables you to open the slide doors without touching them, but the “Hands free” power tail is also a very attractive touchless function. Without knowing that the pandemic has brought a new lifestyle which discourage the number of touches with hands, Honda might be just lucky to have this touchless control technology which might make them a pioneer and winner in the covid-19 market. By implementing and manipulating the new function in the new era, Honda might be able to turn the game over not only in MPV market, but also entire market. Who knows? Honda Odyssey might lead the game with Toyota Alphard in near future.

Luxury Toyota: Celsior

Luxury Toyota: Celsior

Article Written By Shudo Negishi

In the late 80’s, Toyota made this luxury car named as Celsior (LS in US) to compete with other makers such as Lincoln, Cadillac, Mercedes Benz or BMW. It is also known as the largest sedan of Toyota (excluding Toyota Century for chauffeur-driven) and the rival of Nissan Cima, and many popular celebrities like JAY Z also owned this especially during the 90s.

When this model was presented by Toyota, there was a story that many other makers purchased one unit of Celsior to do research about it. Why? The answer is, the TOTAL QUALITY was mostly perfect at that time. Some advantages are shown below, and let’s see how good it was (refer to UC30 model)

The first point is, the luxury interior. Wide space, with sunshade switch, automatic moving air con panels, and has rear seat massage for F package.

The second point is, the exterior. It has a wide trunk, and has air suspension which is more reliable compared to others.

Last but not least, is the “ SILENT V8 ENGINE”. This is the most popular thing about this car. When driving Celsior, you can feel really smooth and comfortable. However, when you step more on the accelerator, you can feel the “real V8”.

Toyota Celsior is still popular around the world. You can also find it in auction houses. If you want a reliable luxury car, why not to try this? Just contact us for any orders.

Difference between CVT, VVT and VTEC?
CAR NEWS 2020/09/28

Difference between CVT, VVT and VTEC?

Article Written By Vicente

CVT
A CVT, is a type of automatic transmission that provides more useable power &  better fuel.

Advantages of the CVT
CVT can vary the engine speed as needed to access maximum power as well as  maximum fuel efficiency. This allows the CVT to provide quicker acceleration  than a conventional automatic or manual transmission while delivering superior  fuel economy.

Disadvantages of the CVT
The CVT's biggest problem has been user acceptance. Because the CVT allows  the engine to rev at any speed, the noises coming from under the hood sound  odd to ears accustomed to conventional manual and automatic transmissions.  The gradual changes in engine note sound like a sliding transmission or a  slipping clutch -- signs of trouble with a conventional transmission, but perfectly  normal for a CVT. Flooring an automatic car brings a lurch and a sudden burst of  power, whereas CVTs provide a smooth, rapid increase to maximum power. To  some drivers this makes the car feel slower; in fact a CVT will generally  out-accelerate an automatic.

VARIABLE VALVE TIMING
The concept of a static or single-mode combustion engine is a little out of date in  today. Because of the nature of fuel injection, carburators, the 4-stroke cycle  and valves, the internal combustion engine only really works really well at one  particular range of speeds. Any higher or lower and you start to cock up fuel  efficiency, reliability and power. To overcome this issue, and to try to make  engines more usable throughout their rev ranges, manufacturers invented  various different types of variable valve timing. The idea is simple - alter the  timing and/or size of the intake and exhaust ports at different engine RPM’s to  ensure that the engine is as efficient as possible throughout it's range of  operating speeds.

VTEC
VTEC allows the valves to remain open for two different durations. A short  opening time for low-speed operation to give good torque and acceleration, and  a larger opening time for higher speeds to give more power. To do this, the  camshaft has two sets of cam lobes for each valve and a sliding locking pin on  the cam follower that determines which lobe is operating the valve. The locking  pin is moved by a hydraulic control valve based on the engine speed and power  delivery requirements. The two lobe shapes are referred to as fuel economy  cams and high power cams, meaning that Honda engines with this technology  are really two engines in one - a performance engine and an economical engine.  The two animations below show a pair of cam lobes and followers to  demonstrate the fundamental operation of VTEC. The left animation is fuel  economy mode - the blue locking pin is not engaged so the two followers run on  their respective cam lobes independently. The yellow one is the main cam  follower which pushes on the valve. On the right, in power mode, the blue  locking pin is engaged so now the red cam follower is locked to the yellow one  which, now being driven by the red one, no longer contacts the lower profile  cam lobe. Because the red follower is running on a higher profile cam lobe, it  now forces the valve to stay open longer.

引擎確認燈亮燈時要該怎麼辦?
HOW-TO 2020/09/18

引擎確認燈亮燈時要該怎麼辦?

作者: Eddie Yeh

車子啟動後,儀表板燈號會亮起,確認每個警告燈號都能正常運作。等待數秒後,只要行車電腦檢查無誤,這些燈號就會熄滅。不過,萬一有個燈號沒熄滅該怎麼辦?

不管是剛發動,還是開車中,引擎確認的黃色燈號亮起來,多數駕駛可能都會非常緊張。是引擎發生故障,還是周遭機件有問題?應該立刻靠邊停車打電話求救,還是能夠繼續開到保養廠再處理?

為什麼會特別提到引擎確認燈,因為其他燈號多半都傳遞很明確的訊息,但check engine引擎確認燈號代表的故障訊息,卻含許多可能的問題。

不過先記住,「確認引擎燈號亮起,不代表你要立刻靠邊停車,然後打電話叫拖吊車」。

確認引擎燈號亮起,代表你須要在合理的情況下,盡快檢查引擎。因為光憑故障燈,駕駛無法得知到底是重要機件出問題,或只是無關緊要的小麻煩。

當引擎確認燈號亮起時,駕駛第一件要做的事情,就是判斷周遭交通,是否允許停車或者緊急靠邊。因為萬一問題很嚴重,在短時間之內熄火,在一陣忙亂之後亂操作車輛,反而容易造成車禍。

第二件事情,就是試著踩踏油門,看加油反應是否仍正常。並關掉音響,仔細聆聽引擎有沒有異常敲擊聲或其他異音。同時留意車輛有無抖動、不穩定,或忽然無力。

如果有上述情形,那就代表引擎運作已經受到影響,請在路況允許下盡快將車輛停到路邊熄火,並通知等待救援。若硬要繼續行駛,可能會導致引擎無可修復的損壞。

不過大部分確認引擎的燈號亮起,其實不會有立即危機,因為這個燈號僅顯示「影響排放」的狀況。比如說燃燒不完全、廢氣中仍有殘留燃油…等等。但可以肯定置之不理的話,久了還是會出大問題的。

Monthly orders of New model Harrier exceeded the annual target

Monthly orders of New model Harrier exceeded the annual target

The new Toyota Harrier which was released in June 2020 is unstoppable. The number of
orders has reached over 40,000 within a month from the date of debut in the market with
the 4th ranking in the entire car industry in July. The initial monthly target was 3,000 units
sale when the model was launched though it has turned out to be such a surprising number
of orders has been made within a month. Since there has been unexpected number of
orders, the delivery of the new orders is unpredictable. The popularity is very stable for
SUV models of Toyota in Japan regardless of great economic impact due to Covid-19.
Toyota has been doing a good job during the pandemic with its models occupying 1 st to 4 th
raking in the market in July. By looking at the line up of 4 models in higher orders, 3 models
are targeting at low-end market. Harrier is the only model that is targeting at high-end
market though ranked in the higher order. This fact shows a continuous success and bright
future of this model. Not only Harrier, but RAV4 has also been making a great popularity
since its launching in the market last year.

What makes Toyota SUV so popular?

Toyota does have a lot of line up for each type of models to attract the fans of it. Yet, that is
not the only reason which makes its success. Toyota also does have a strategic plan to
improve all the aspects of models. With its constant improvement of models by minor
changes in an appropriate span, Toyota comes to gain sufficient information and
knowledge to come up with a best performing model when they launch a new model. This
could apply for new Harrier as well. By having several rounds of minor changes with the
last model that was launched in 2013, the New model achieved the best performance
which could gain such a surprising success.
