William Daniels is calling — are you tuned in?



Chevy Volt’s powertrain and recharging clarified

Friday, September 26th, 2008

Chevy Volt

Chevy’s taking a moment to clear up some misconceptions about its eagerly anticipated plug-in hybrid, the Volt, which had long been assumed (by most) to use its gasoline-powered engine like a WWII submarine — kicking on and charging the batts to full before switching off again. Alas, that’s close but not completely accurate. The engine does serve only to feed the batteries (it’s not connected to the wheels in any way) and will fire up when they are getting low. However, it will not fully recharge them, serving only to maintain a 30-percent charge as you keep on motoring. In other words, you’ll need to plug that puppy in overnight if you want to to get back to silent running and successfully avoid detection by destroyer battlegroups on your morning commute — or spy cameras.

Custom Toyota MR2 carputer presents the ultimate distraction for drivers

Thursday, September 25th, 2008

Car Computer

This insanely kitted out Toyota MR2 is being put up for sale by its owner somewhere in Germany — he’s a highly motivated seller, provided you have the prerequisite electronics and programming (especially Visual Basic) skills. The standard gauges and indicators in the car have been removed, replaced with touch screens and a console mounted iDrive knob, offering the pilot of this machine control over almost every aspect of its operation: climate control, GPS, fuel consumption, mirrors, radar/laser, wireless transfer of music from a home computer, lights, fog lights… and the all-important VCD playback. Also listed on the original posting is something called the “police button” which “virtually controls the police.” This might have been something that Google mistranslated, but we prefer to think otherwise.
