Many German vehicles are returning to diesel since the time of bio-diesel invention. In addition to this many car manufacturers are inventing their own filters for diesel engines in order to reduce air pollution.
Mercedes-Benz presents its 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited with turbocharged diesel engine. It has five-speed automatic transmission with manual override system. Almost in every case automatic type works perfectly well as if predicting the driver’s actions, but manual override will be good for towing and off-road.
One good advantage the diesel gives to any vehicle that rides on it is the good torque. 2008 Jeep Cherokee does not have much horsepower, only 215, which is really tiny for a 4,723-pound auto like this, but the torque here is 376 pound-feet. This is so because diesels are unthrottled engines and acceleration fires more fuel to the chambers.
You will also like the idea of visiting gas-stations not so often, because Jeep Cherokee takes only 15 mpg in city limit and 20 mpg on a highway. This is really good comparing, for example, to a Chrysler Jeep which takes 14 mpg in city/19 mpg on highway.
The only drawback of the auto being diesel is the price on the fuel nowadays. It is cheaper to buy the finest gasoline than to get diesel. This fact will influence a lot on Mercedes-Benz Jeep Cherokee sales, especially in North America.
Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 got its upgrades from Hennessey Performance Engineering and became even more powerful than it has already been before that.
The Jeep fans were probably surprised by a new look of 2008 Jeep Liberty. It is absolutely different than the previous year model. On the outside it looks so much bigger and squarer.
BMW has officially announced that it is going to make new series of small, front and four-wheel drive vehicles on a new platform. These autos are going to share it with the next generation of Mini models. At this time the company is “exploring the possibility of developing a joint venture for the front- and four-wheel-drive systems of these cars”.
Since there have been a lot of talks and unpleasant issues after the major Toyota recall, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has decided to set new auto safety rules which would not allow the same problem to happen again. At the congressional hearing two days ago, the new administrator, David Strickland, has announced them.
Daimler AG has announced that is sold 5.34% of the stake in Tata Motors. The German company has raised more than $400 million for the shares it did not want to hold any more.
