Amazing Bajaj Pulsar RS200
1)Engine..
The Bajaj Pulsar RS200 essentially has the same engine as the naked 200NS. That said, Bajaj Auto has tweaked it to deliver 24.5PS@9,750rpm and 18.6Nm@8,000rpm, making it the most powerful Pulsar yet. What sets apart the Pulsar RS200 motor is the fact that it will be fuel-injected unlike the carburetted motor as seen on the Pulsar 200NS. The addition of fuel-injection should not only result in improved power delivery but also better efficiency. The Pulsar RS200 continues to be mated to a six-speed transmission.
2) Fastest Pulsar Yet...
Ever since Bajaj unveiled their first teaser video of the RS200 a few weeks back, it has been making a lot of hullabaloo about it being the fastest Pulsar offering yet. The Chakan-based bike maker claims that the Pulsar RS200 can record a maximum speed of 141kmph. While it does weight 165kg, it also has a bump in the power and torque over the naked Pulsar 200NS. Moreover, the fairing and the aerodynamics most definitely have a part to play.
3) Dimensions. ..
stick to the Race Sport DNA of the RS200, Bajaj has reduced the overall dimensions compared to its naked sibling. The Pulsar RS200 is 2,155mm long, 1,999mm wide and just 765mm tall. A shorter wheelbase of 1,355mm will ensure better handling dynamics. That said, the weight might just be a cause of concern, especially keeping in mind motorcycles like the Kawasaki Ninja 250R and the Ninja 300 are just 5kg and 7kg heavier despite being parallel-twins. To make matters a little more difficult, the 157mm ground clearance might just mean that the Pulsar RS200 underbelly will scrape on large potholes and speed bumps.
4) Features...
In terms of features, Bajaj has always equipped the Pulsar range with more for the kind of money it demands, this new offering is no different. It comes with a two-piece handlebar, LED DRLs and tail lamps and a semi-digital console with 2 trip meters and a clock. To ensure that the bike offers a combination of good ride and handling, Bajaj has fitted the Pulsar RS200 with monoshock suspension. Aside from these, it also gets 300mm disc at the front and 230mm disc brakes at the back.
Next-gen BMW 5-series to be unveiled at Paris motor show 2016
BMW is set to unveil the next-generation of its luxury sedan, the BMW 5-series, at the Paris motor show 2016. The new car will get a more streamlined styling as compared to the current car, and will share technology with the new 7-series that made its debut internationally earlier this year.
The new 5-series will get a more prominent kidney grille with dynamic louvers that open and close as per cooling requirement, optional laser headlamps, more pronounced shoulders, LED tail-lamps and a sleeker profile with a more heavily raked rear windshield. The new 5-series will also be based on the new platform, codenamed OKL, that was introduced on the new 7-series. The car will also be around 100kg lighter due to the use of carbon fibre, magnesium, aluminium and high-tensile steel.
On the inside, the dashboard is expected to be designed like the one on the new 7-series with the same basic architecture multi-function steering wheel, switchgear and material materials. The dashboard will also feature an all-digital instrument cluster and a free-standing infotainment display.
Powering the car will be a family of 2.0-litre four-cylinder diesel and petrol engines in varying states of tune: the 3.0-litre six-cylinder petrol and diesel engines including a quad-turbo diesel in the M550d, the 444bhp 4.4-litre V8 from the new 7-series, plug-in hybrid powertrains from the new 7-series and X5 and the range-topping 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 for the M5. The car will come with the choice of a six-speed manual or a nine-speed automatic gearbox on the standard models, while the M5 will continue with the seven-speed dual-clutch automatic from the current model.
In terms of technology, the new 5-series will get the latest iDrive system with a new touchpad and touchscreen, gesture control with sensors to monitor five different hand movements, voice recognition and functions such as swipe and pinch to zoom. The car will also come with autonomous driving tech such as autonomous emergency braking, hands-off operation and anti-collision systems.
The new 5-series will be available in three body styles – sedan, Touring and GT . The sedan is the one that will make its debut at the Paris motor show. There is no confirmation as yet as to the launch dates of the other two models, though they are expected sometime in 2017.
