Vixie terbaru ini nantinya akan mengambil platform dari YZF R15 yang telah beredar di India dan memang memiliki segudang kemiripan dengan V-ixion yang ada di Indonesia.

Perbedaan mencolok antara keduanya hanyalah terdapat pada fairing, headlamp, stang, dan spion. Selebihnya kedua motor ini adalah motor yang 'serupa tapi tak sama'.

Jadi, sangatlah wajar para pecinta V-ixion sangat menantikan versi facelift dari varian ini. Lihat saja spesifikasi mesin 150 cc yang diusung keduanya, hampirlah mirip.

Karena keduanya juga sudah melengkapi mesinnya dengan teknologi liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, SOHC, single-cylinder fuel-injected engine. Dan bila kita melihat itu semua, bisa dibilang, YZF R15 adalah V-ixion versi fairing.

Jakarta - Siap-siap jalan raya makin semrawut kalau pemerintah tidak segera melakukan pembenahan. Pasalnya, prediksi penjualan motor ditahun 2011 ini diprediksi bisa mencapai 8,4 juta unit!

Ketua Umum Asosiasi Industri Sepeda Motor Indonesia (AISI) Gunadi Shinduwinata yang mengungkapkan hal tersebut. Membaiknya perekonomian menjadi salah satu penyebabnya.

"Tapi ada lagi satu penyebab pentingnya, yakni selama pemerintah belum bisa menyediakan transportasi massal yang memadai, penjualan sepeda motor akan terus meningkat," ujarnya.

Bukan apa-apa, soalnya sepeda motor saat ini dianggap sebagai solusi yang paling ampuh untuk menyiasati mobilitas masyarakat yang terus dibelenggu dengan kemacetan.

"Jadi, tahun ini penjualan motor bisa mencapai 8,4 juta unit, itu hal yang memungkinkan," tambahnya.

Segmentasi bebek diutarakan Gunadi, masih akan tetap mendominasi, meski akan terus dibuntuti dengan segmen skutik yang mulai menyamai catatan penjualan sepeda motor di tanah air.

Ferrari Four Sebuah Revolusi dari Maranello

MARANELLO - Ferrari menunjukkan produk terbarunya Ferrari Four (FF) di internet. Kemunculan FF menjawab teka-teki dan rasa penasaran wartawan, mengenai pengganti 612 Scaglietti.

Disebut Ferrari Four karena inilah hatchback perdana dengan empat tempat duduk dan berpenggerak empat roda (4WD) lahir dari markas kuda jingkrak di Maranello. Sosok nyata mobil ini akan tampil di ajang pamerean mobil Jenewa 2011.

Ferrari Four dirancang, baik eksterior maupun interiornya oleh Pininfarina dengan arahan dari Kepala Desain Ferrari Flavio Manzoni. Bagian depannya terinspirasi dari model 458 dengan sedikit diperbesar.

Pihak Ferrari menyebut FF ini bukan sebagai evolusi tapi sebagai sebuah revolusi sejati, dengan karakter khusus yang belum pernah ada dari keluarga Ferrari, punya performa tinggi dengan fleksibilitas yang luar biasa. Mobil juga memiliki kenyamanan dan kenggunan yang luar biasa. Lalu, menjamin pengemudi dan penumpang punya pengalaman berkendara.

Disebutkan mobil berperforma tinggi lantaran dibekali mesin 6,25liter V12 digandeng dengan transmisi F1 kopling ganda 7-percepatan. Tenaganya mencapai 650 bhp pada 8.000 rpm dan torsi 504 lb ft pada 5.000 rpm. Bisa ngegut 0-100 km per jam hanya dalam 3,7 detik dengan kecepatan maksimum 350 km per jam.

Meski kapasitas dan tenaga mesin besar, konsumsi bahan bakarnya dengan 15,4liter bisa menempuh jarak 100 km. Lumayan irit untuk ukuran sekelas itu dqn mobil punya fitur stop-start yang diklaim mampu menghemat konsumsi bahan bakar sampai 10 persen.

Ferrari berharap bisa memperluas pasar, menangkap konsumen baru yang biasa menggunakan mobil dengan sistem all-wheel-drive saloon atau penggemar SUV. Unit kabarnya segera diluncurkan ke pasar pada tahun ini. Apakah strategi ini berhasil ?
