LA Auto Show Roundup

Chris — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 07:45:45 +0000

All the big news at this year’s LA Auto Show is small cars. It all started with the big reveal of the Chevy Cruze compact car that will be replacing the outgoing and aging Cobalt model. The new Cruze will sport either a 1.8L engine or a turbocharged 1.4L with the same power output as the larger engine but with an estimated 40mpg. This new compact from Chevy will target the Honda Civic, Ford Focus and Toyota Corolla as its sales competition.

Ford and Mazda have micro on the mind as they reveal their new hot hatch sub compact cars. First one being the highly anticipated Ford Fiesta, sporting a 1.6L engine and 40mpg (seems to be a trend here) the big news though is the inclusion of the PowerShift electronic dual clutch automatic transmission. This will allow the Fiesta to be lighter than a typical automatic transmission car and has a sealed internal lubrication so it is maintenance free. The new Mazda2 was announced for the US market without specifics. It is known that the car is based on the same architecture as the Ford Fiesta but the engine and driving dynamics being specifically built to Mazda’s Zoom Zoom quality.

The big winner of the day on reveals goes to Mitsubishi with its announcement of the Colt here in the USA. The EVO nosed Colt is a current global car for Mitsubishi and will be up against a tough and growing crowd of B-Segment cars like the Ford Fiesta, Mazda2, Toyota Yaris, Nissan Versa, and Honda Fit. No details have been given yet, but we know that it will come with a manual or CVT transmission and have a MIVEC engine. A turbocharged Ralliart version is sold in Japan and would be the fastest B-segment on the market if introduced.

Now if we could twist American Suzuki Motor Corporations arm a little we could fill the segment with the world’s best B-Segment hit the Suzuki Swift, maybe there will be a surprise left at the LA Auto Show.

Stay tuned to OdoClub blog for the latest updates from the LA Auto Show. Also, if you are planning to attend the LA Auto Show make sure you sign up for OdoClub before you hit the road. OdoClub members earn rewards for every mile they drive. Rewards can be redeemed at participating dealerships for discounts on goods and services.

Maza Places Its Cars on a Diet

In the 1970′s when the fuel crisis hit the State, automakers scrambles to make more fuel efficient transportation. However, since the ’80s each product cycle has resulted in a wight gain of about 80 pounds. Coming in 2011 Mazda will break this trend and place its cars on a diet by dropping the average weight of a vehicle by 220 pounds or more. Mazda will begin using more aluminum and high strength steel, cutting the overall length of vehicles by three inches or more and utilizing smaller and more efficient powertrains.
This will likely result in fuel economy gains of three to five percent without sacrificing safety.

The company’s lineup will drop pounds as vehicles come up for redesign. Mazda will also work to lose the weight without sacrificing the brand’s Zoom Zoom roots. One of the first Mazda models expected to benefit from the companies weight loss goals is the MX-5 Miata. Rumors have been flying for months that the next Miata will be lighter than the already feathery roadster we have today.

OdoClub can add wight to your bank account each month in the form of savings. OdoClub members earn rewards for every mile they drive. Rewards can be redeemed at participating dealerships for discounts on goods and services.
