Lancia Delta Unveiled

Lancia is going to make a powerful come back after a period of 14 years in the UK market, midway through the 2009. And, the car that will help Lancia in finding their way back to the British market is none other than the new 2009 Lancia Delta. It has a relatively distinct appearance with five-door hatchback system, but it promises new levels of luxury in this class.

This mid sized hatchback ensures that its design and interiors render enough comfort, while the extravagant body style makes it suitable to participate in the races and compete with the likes of the Audi A3 as well as BMW 1-series.

Its unique styled grille and two-toned paints give special looks to the wedge profile. Inside the cabin of the car, only the materials with high quality are made use of, raising its standards even higher. Its standard kit is also plentiful than the ones offered by its rivals.

The sliding and recline rear benches give ample space for keeping luggage and even leg space for the passengers. The latest Lancia Delta will come with 100 mm wheel-base. It is going to be a strong competitor to the Fiat Bravo. The model is definitely a lot roomier than most of the other C-segment hatch-back cars. The leather decoration on the seats and doors of the car nearly match the Rolls-Royce’ soft and supple Italian craftsman’s handicraft.

Lancia Delta has been introduced with the 2.0-liter diesel engine for the first time. With 163bhp, it has enough power punch, while electronic damping provide a warm quilt drive.

The 2009 Lancia Delta and the Fiat Bravo have a lot of similarities, but the 2009 Delta has got enough to outsmart the Bravo and many other cars of its class. So, let us make a small comparative analysis amongst Delta and other contenders and see how Delta is superior to others.

The Delta is about 4.5m long, and this is not a small car by any means. It comes with a door that extend across the full width at the back end that opens upwards to provide easy access for loading. Lancia Delta is an extremely large car in its segment.

Lancia has always shown the desire to establish superiority over other automakers in all the aspects and this time the 2009 Delta is long enough to catch the eyes of its buyers. Moreover, the Lancia Delta currently has a huge market advantage as only the ‘Anodyne Lancias’ is gradually loosing the stronghold in UK shores.

Its main advantage is the authentic separation from anything else in the category. With its combination of space and plush interiors, Lancia proves out to be the first truly luxurious C-segment car. It comes in a decent length, level of bulkiness and fuel economy.

Delta has a 1910cc 4-cylinder twin-turbo diesel engine that produces 190BHP power @ 4000RPM, and 294 lb-ft of torque @ 2000RPM.

It is offered in six-speed manual transmission with front wheel drive. The car can accelerate from 0-62 MPH in 7.9 seconds. It produces 149 g/km CO2 and has a curb weight of 1430 kilograms. However, none of its rivals including the Fiat Bravo can match these figures.

Its length, width and heights are 4520, 1797, 1499 mm respectively. The presentation of grill looks luxurious i, while the 2009 Lancia Delta has significant “differences” from the new Fiat Bravo, which is indeed a decent car in this class. But, the 2009 Lancia Delta is far superior to the other models in its segment.

Lamborghini Murcielago

The 2010 Lamborghini Murchiealago LP640 at a median price of $ 450,000 is far from the most expensive sports car available. The Lamborghini Revention and the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport each cost around $ 1.5 million.The Murchiealago LP640 is also not the street legal sports car with the highest maximum speed at its 211 mph. The American produced SSC Ultimate Aero can obtain 257 mph.

What the 2010 Murchiealago LP640 is was summed up best in a Los Angeles Times review, “…the most heinously irresponsible, developmentally arrested, awesomely cool sports car the world has ever known.”

The Murchiealago is, by longstanding Lamborghini tradition, named after a famous Spanish fighting bull. The sports cars namesake survived 28 wounds inflicted by the sword of matador Rafael Molina Sanchez in 1879. In a very rare gesture of respect for the bull, Sanchez spared its life.As a replacement for Lamborghini’s 11-year-old Diablo the car went on sale in 2002, identified only as the Murchiealago with a mid-engine design, a 6.2-liter V12 and 4 wheel drive. LP640 designated models followed and in 2004, Lamborghini rolled out the LP640-4 roadster.

The latest model introduced is the LP670-4SV (SuperVeloce) and is widely expected to be the final incarnation of the Murchiealago prior to Lamborghini introducing a new model sometime in 2010.An aluminum 6.496 Liter (396.4 cu in) 60-degree V12 provides power to the SuperVeloce This engine develops 670 bhp @ 8000 rpm with torque rated at 487 ft lbs to the wheels at 6500 rpm. Top speed is 213 mph with a 0-60 mph speed of 3.1 seconds.Two spoiler options are available for the SV with the smaller option allowing the 213 mph top speed while the larger one creates more down force that enhances handling but gives away 4 mph in speed.The SV has a reworked body on the front and rear, which distinguishes it from the 640. A reworking on all components on the car reduced curb weight by 220 lbs, which gives it a phenomenal power to weight ratio of 5.1 lbs per hp.

Returning to the LP640, it is the number one exotic sports car for 2010 according to U.S. News and World Report. The U.S. News staff compared seven sports cars with eleven independent reviews for each car. The Murciealago won easily. The two negative ratings for the LP640 were difficulty entering and leaving the vehicle due to its scissor doors and poor visibility to the rear. Not much of a trade off is it.
