F1: Following Appendix Surgery, Albon Required Ventilator Care

September 15, 2022 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

Team’s statement on Formula One According to Williams, respiratory failure was caused by anesthetic problems.

LONDON: Following complications from surgery on his appendix, Alex Albon, a Formula One driver for Williams, experienced “respiratory failure” and was put on a ventilator.

On Saturday morning, appendicitis caused Albon, 26, to be disqualified from the Italian Grand Prix at Monza. He was then taken to the adjacent San Gerardo Hospital for treatment.

This Is The Brand New Pagani Utopia, A Retro Styled V12 Vehicle

September 13, 2022 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

2022 Pagani Utopia Front View — 2022 Pagani Utopia Back View

Utopia is Pagani’s third new model series, following Zonda and Huayra.

Leonardo da Vinci, Horacio Pagani’s greatest inspiration and idol, famously said that “water is the driving force of all nature.” He was mistaken, with all due respect to the renowned polymath.

No, a custom Mercedes-AMG biturbo V12 with a surplus of horsepower and no contemporary frills is what drives all of nature. Everyone is invited to the brand-new, distinctly retro Pagani Utopia. Only Horacio’s third hypercar in history.

Since the Zonda created “the legend” and the Huayra introduced active aero and carbo-titanium, the business admits that it was necessary to clarify precisely what this new “C10” stands for. Utopia, named after Sir Thomas More’s well-known poem, is born into a world that is gradually doing away with such obvious excess.

Gallery:

We only know that the enormous twelve-cylinder Mercedes-AMG engine inside, uh, Utopia, produces 864 horsepower and “a remarkable” 811 lb ft of torque. It supposedly complies with even the severe emissions standards of California and “revs higher and is more versatile.” Pagani doesn’t specify, but it most likely replaces the engine.

Pagani installed a smaller, more compact automatic Xtrac unit with helical gears in instead of attaching this behemoth to a dual-clutcher. Utopia will get a real seven-speed manual transmission in the later part of 2023, not a “virtual manual.” I wonder what Pagani is alluding to there.

This brutal engine is housed in Pagani’s well-known carbo-titanium monocoque, which has front and rear tubular alloy steel subframes. This package is certainly new-school. Double wishbone suspension made of forged aluminium surrounds the vehicle, together with helical springs and electronically controlled active dampers.

The brakes are more powerful than one might anticipate. Front and rear six- and four-piston calipers clamp over carbon ceramic vented discs, which are all concealed by 21- or 22-inch forged aluminum alloy wheels.

Interior View:

There is no running from that body. Each of Pagani’s vehicles “begins with an aesthetic shock,” the company freely acknowledges, and Utopia in particular is supposed to “radiate simplicity.” In an effort to create a more timeless design, the firm makes reference to the more “fluid and curving” lines this automobile exhibits.

It has been purposefully stripped of the more visible aerodynamic add-ons, such as large wings, splitters, and vents, but some have likely been saved for the unavoidable special editions we’ll see later in its lifespan. And while a Pagani is a remarkable automobile regardless, this will undoubtedly generate conversation.

The FIA Explains Why Hamilton Wasn’t Fined For The F1 Collision With Alonso

August 29, 2022 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

During the opening lap of the Spa-Franco champs race, Alonso and his Mercedes adversary collided at Les Combes as they competed for second place.

Up the Kemmel Straight, Hamilton had an advantage over Alonso and drove to the outside in an effort to slingshot past him.

Alonso had nowhere to go as Hamilton closed the door on him on the entry to the first right-hander at Les Combes, and the two collided as the Mercedes was flung into the air.

Alonso was allowed to continue, but Hamilton was instructed to stop later on the lap due to damage to his car and what seemed to be a water leak.

Audi Will Debut In Formula 1 Year 2026

August 26, 2022 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

The German manufacturer has long been associated with a transfer to Formula One and has sometimes expressed interest in talks of technical regulations, but it has never committed to an entry or program.

That has altered as a result of the engine regulation modifications that will take effect in 2026 and the increase in F1’s worldwide appeal.

Since F1 courted the Volkswagen Group for some months, the move by Audi has been anticipated.

F1 programmers from both Audi and sister brand Porsche have been in the works since late last year, and Herbert Diess, the departing CEO of the VW Group, effectively confirmed them in May.

More rings are coming. Watch this space…#Audi #news #automotive #FutureIsAnAttitude pic.twitter.com/IJyqeVV3L1
— Audi Sport (@audisport) August 26, 2022

Audi intended to construct its own engine and field its own squad, while Porsche was said to be working with Red Bull. This has been known for a number of months.
However, both companies had previously stated that neither project would receive the official go-ahead until the 2026 engine regulations were established, which took place earlier in August.

While cost-cutting measures are put in place, the current manufacturers have decided to remove the complicated MGU-H from the V6 turbo-hybrids.

New manufacturers, like Audi, will initially be given more dyno time and expenditure allowances.

On Friday morning, Audi posted a teaser image, promising that “more rings are coming” with a cropped image of an F1 car.

It’s unknown if an engine programme will be revealed separately or together with the team’s plans being confirmed.

Audi is anticipated to have acquired or will acquire a majority investment in Sauber, with minority ownership remaining with existing owner Finn Rausing.

With this, Audi will officially take over management of the Alfa Romeo-sponsored team, which will continue to use Ferrari engines until 2026, when it will formally become the first fully Audi-powered entry.

Mansory Mercedes S-CLass Product Overview PDF DOWNLOAD

Just a few weeks after the “Mercedes-Maybach GLS by MANSORY,” a version of a Mercedes-Maybach entirely improved by MANSORY, was introduced, the “Mercedes-Maybach S-Class by MANSORY” launches, continuing the constant growth of the product range in the matter of Mercedes-Maybach.

The Mercedes-Maybach complete conversions displayed below, like other MANSORY complete vehicle conversions, were similarly substantially and thoroughly modified in the traditional disciplines of vehicle refining as the GLS:

Design:

The Mercedes-Maybach S-Class already has a highly sophisticated exterior, but MANSORY has added several carbon-fiber accessories to further emphasize this. The front air intakes, the area below and to the side of the front apron, the sills, the outside mirrors, and the rear apron all make use of the noble and lightweight material.

Depending on your option, the rear apron may be created in either of two configurations: with or without a center brake light. In line with the iconic Mercedes-Maybach S-Class clientele, further carbon applications in the shape of a roof edge spoiler and a spoiler on the tailgate, as well as the duo-tone vehicle paintwork, very harmoniously complete the outward design, which is purposefully maintained understated.

Interior:

The inside is also given extra consideration and care, as is customary with every MANSORY total vehicle modification.

As a result, the inside may be fully redesigned and covered in the best leather on every imaginable component, based on the preferences of the buyer. Additionally, each seam may be customized with a different color, such as the outside painting. The inside is finished off with subtle MANSORY emblems on floor mats, various carbon inlays, a leather sports steering wheel, an aluminum pedal set, and other details.

Performance:

MANSORY enhances the performance figures of the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class for both the S 580 and the S 680 using a modified ECU unit, the so-called “MANSORY Performance Power Box,” and combines this with a 4-pipe sports exhaust system. The following performance values are altered as a result:

S 580:

Power: 600 hp (+ 97 hp)
Torque: 820 Nm (+ 120 Nm)
CO2 emissions (combined): 302 g/km / Fuel consumption (combined): 12.7 l/100km

Power: 720 hp (+ 108 hp)
Torque: 1,000 Nm (+ 100 Nm)
CO2 emissions (combined): 369 g/km / Fuel consumption (combined): 15.5 l/100km

Honda Will Release A Special CB125F Motorcycle In Honor Of Independence Day

August 12, 2022 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

In honour of Pakistan’s 75th anniversary of independence, Atlas Honda will release a special CB125F motorcycle. Recently, its pictures appeared on social media, sparking discussion among bike lovers.

The limited edition vehicle has a white body and green decals, sporting a white and green color combination. The standard versions are available in red, black, and blue color schemes.

Honda VB125F Specifications:

The bike still features a slightly modified 124cc single-cylinder, 4-stroke pushrod engine with a 5-speed gearbox that produces around 10 horsepower and 9.5 Nm of torque. This formula is outdated and unpolished, but it is reliable.

The younger generation of motorbike consumers prefers more technologically advanced vehicles. Nevertheless, Atlas Honda and a number of other Pakistani motorbike producers are charging more for the same outdated, basic machines.

Daniel Ricciardo’s F1 Career Is Forever Altered By McLaren’s Choice

August 6, 2022 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

Motorsport claims that McLaren has chosen to terminate Ricciardo’s contract early.

Oscar Piastri will replace Daniel Ricciardo at McLaren a year early, according speculations covered by Motorsport. The British team is said to have officially informed the Australian driver of its plan to terminate Ricciardo’s contract early.

Contrary to what Alpine reports, Piastri would join McLaren as a reserve driver in 2023. However, the Woking team would be prepared to elevate him straight away if a termination deal could be achieved with Ricciardo.

The Australian, who like with Lando Norris struggled to shine at McLaren, will aim to negotiate a sizable severance compensation. His objective is to continue competing in Formula One the next season, most likely at Alpine himself to fill Fernando Alonso’s vacant seat or at Haas.

To create room for Piastri, McLaren plans to cancel Ricciardo’s 2023 Formula One contract.
According to Motorsport.com, the McLaren Formula 1 team has formally informed Daniel Ricciardo that Oscar Piastri will take his spot in the lineup for the upcoming season.

If a plan for Ricciardo’s early retirement is ultimately decided, McLaren is thought to have first signed Piastri on a reserve driver agreement for 2023, one that it hopes to upgrade to a racing seat.

As part of the initial three-year contract that he signed in early 2020, while still at Renault, Ricciardo has a fixed contract with McLaren for the next season.

**Oscar Piastri Reserve Driver Alpine F1 Team**

In order for Ricciardo to leave the team at the conclusion of this season, he and the organisation will now need to reach an agreement on a settlement containing a hefty pay-off.

He is believed to be determined to find another seat in Formula One and has no interest in going sideways into the team’s Formula E program.

However, when McLaren expressed interest and it became clear that Piastri may be a free agent in 2023 after all, discussions stepped up and the Working team was viewed as an improvement over Williams.

Meanwhile, Ricciardo is undoubtedly towards the top of the list of potential Fernando Alonso replacements at Alpine, despite the fact that his decision to leave Renault for McLaren angered the company’s top management.

Although Ferrari technically has a claim on anyone fills the seat, Haas might potentially be a viable choice if Mick Schumacher decides to go as anticipated.

Sometimes the driver in question obtaining a seat elsewhere might have an influence on pay-off agreements like the one Ricciardo is expected to earn. Kimi Raikkonen spent two years away from Formula One after Ferrari fired him at the end of 2009, in part so he could keep the entire sum.

However, it is acknowledged that, given the funds necessary to fulfil Ricciardo’s initial contract, it is possible that, even if he secures a drive elsewhere, McLaren will continue to pay him to not compete for the team in 2023.

Muva Electric Rickshaw Made In Pakistan l Pakistan Auto Show 2022 l

August 4, 2022 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

MUVA (Rethink Urban Mobility)

YES Electromotive, an entirely original producer of electric vehicles (EVs), participated in the Pakistan Auto Show (PAS) 2022 with plans to deploy MUVA electric rikshaws in Pakistan.

According to a company official, Lahore, Pakistan is the exclusive manufacturing and assembly location for MUVA electric rickshaws.

Before it is formally introduced to the general public or the market, the corporation is fine-tuning it through testing, research, and development.

At its state-of-the-art facility in Lahore, Pakistan, MUVA Electric Rickshaws are made entirely from scratch

A firm representative said that Pakistan’s cutting-edge plant in Lahore produces MUVA electric rickshaws fully from scratch.

The firm is presently fine-tuning the product through testing and in-depth research and development before publicly launching these rickshaws on the market, the spokesperson stated.

Modular Utility Vehicle Architecture, sometimes known as MUVA, is a program for creating light commercial vehicles. With no exhaust emissions and nearly seven times cheaper running expenses than a three-wheeled petrol vehicle, these small electric vehicles (EVs) will serve the same purpose as a typical rickshaw.

Muva Electric Rickshaw Specification:

MODEL	TYPE	SEATING
MUVA-Passenger	Ultra Light Commercial Vehicle	Driver+3

Detail Specifications:

Type	Permanent Magnet
Rated/Peak Power	4kw/8kw
Wheel Size	12″
Grade Ability	20%
Turning Radius	3.9m

Battery Type:

Type	Lithium Iron Phosphate
Range	150km

Weight & Capacities:

Gross Vehicle Weight	250Kgs
Chassis Weight	300Kgs
Pay Load (Incl. Driver)	300Kgs

Dimensions:

Length	2800mm
Width	1400mm
Height	1500mm

MUVA, an abbreviation for Modular Utility Vehicle Architecture, refers to a programme for developing light commercial vehicles. These small electric vehicles (EVs) will perform the same function as a traditional rickshaw, but with no tailpipe emissions and at roughly seven times lower operating costs than a three-wheeled petrol vehicle.

A driver and three passengers can ride in the MUVA electric rickshaw, a commercial EV that is incredibly light. Its curb weight is 450 KG, and its maximum payload capacity is 300 KG. It has a single electric permanent magnet motor with a maximum output of 10.7 horsepower.

The firm will only sell the MUVA rickshaw as a commercial electric vehicle, and the company will focus on fleet sales, the company spokesman continued. He continued by saying that YES Electromotive also plans to adopt a ride-hailing service operating model, allowing customers to request these rickshaws using a smartphone app.

In Japan, A Brand New Toyota Land Cruiser Prado Matte Black Edition Debuts

August 4, 2022 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

The SUV Receives Several New Trim Pieces

The Toyota Land Cruiser Prado continues to serve its purpose and is now offered in Japan in a new Matte Black Edition. This comes after the 70th Anniversary Edition, which went on sale last year just in time for the unveiling of the new Land Cruiser.

The new Matte Black Edition adds some style to the SUV but doesn’t improve performance. Toyota has added matte black trim elements all around the vehicle, including the headlamp garnish, fog light bezels, and the grille and grille insert. The SUV also gets 18-inch matte black six-spoke metal alloys.

Gallery:

The outdated SUV need a major renovation, so the upgrades aren’t really big. It is smaller than the Land Cruiser, which was introduced for the 2010 model year and entered a new generation last year. Since then, the SUV industry has undergone tremendous shift, and a new LC Prado may be in the works.

For The Fourth Time In 2022, Pak Suzuki Have Raise Bike Prices

Last year, Toyota introduced the brand-new Land Cruiser LC300, giving it brand-new foundations in the shape of Toyota’s TNGA platform.

The SUV had a significant exterior redesign and a thorough interior makeover to bring it into line with the other SUV models in the market. When the redesigned Land Cruiser Prado is released, we anticipate it will be built on the Land Cruiser’s new platform.

Specifications:

Only white or black are offered in the Land Cruiser Prado. The SUV’s powertrain looks to remain unchanged and will likely continue to be either the 163 horsepower (121 kW) 2.7-liter gasoline engine or the 201 horsepower (149 kW) 2.8-liter diesel engine. A six-speed automatic transmission transmits power to all four wheels.

Price Tag:

For between $32,662 and $38,739 at the current exchange rate, Toyota is asking for between 4.3 and 5.1 million for the Land Cruiser Prado Matte Black Edition. The Lexus GX sold in the US is comparable to the Land Cruiser Prado. It is a little less sturdy than its full-sized sister and smaller than a normal Land Cruiser.
