V8 Chevrolet Matiz

Dana R. — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 17:28:04 +0000

I never understood why the old Daewoo Matiz is said “little giant” .. until after this no longer makes. Since the Chevrolet Matiz in pictures below really deserve this title.
Why? Because he remained almost as low, but has a huge engine. A 7.0-liter V8 to 550 hp. Thus, our little giant now accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h in just 3.7 seconds from 0 to 200 km / h in less than 11 seconds (exactly 10.94) and reaches a maximum speed of 260 km / h. This project was born in July 2007 and is the work of Yves Fourdin man behind Fourdin Auto Sport (FAS). The model can be seen this weekend at the International Racing Show in Liege.

Daewoo Leganza review

Dana R. — Tue, 27 Nov 2007 18:56:19 +0000

The Daewoo Leganza is surprisingly good for a Korean sedan. It is nimble, with a firm but cushioned ride – not luxurious, but not too harsh, either. The steering wheel moves too easily, though, and does not recenter quickly enough.

The Leganza engine is noisy and buzzy when pushed. The engine also tends to bog when first starting out. Gas mileage is about right for a V-6, which it is not. Power is better than one would expect on the freeway, and passing is very easy, even up hills or with the air conditioner on. The transmission is prone to lurching.

The interior is well styled, with polished faux wood at strategic points.

Daewoo’s manumatic has no overdrive, and makes it easy to accidentally move two gears at once. However, it does allow starting the car from second or third gear, handy in winter. A performance shifting option makes gas mileage low but lives up to its name.

Daewoo Lanos

Dana R. — Sun, 14 Oct 2007 20:25:37 +0000

Daewoo Lanos was manufactured by the Korean auto maker, Daewoo Motors, from 1997 to 2002. Lanos was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro and it was made in three body styles:

1. 3 door hatchback
2. 5 door hatchback
3. 4 door sedan

Lanos was created to replace Daewoo Nexia and it was replaced by Daewoo Kalos. The Lanos project was started in 1993, as a project to create a small family car. After Daewoo studied 20 different manufactures, as Opel Astra, Toyota Tercel and Volkswagen Golf they’ve decided how it should look.
The design was established by the Italian designer, Giurgetto Giugiaro, but the technical part was developed by Daewoo and its development centre Korea. By the end of 1995, 150 prototypes were built for testing. After 30 months, the project was ready, and Lanos appeared in large-scale production on the Korean market and then, in 1997 on European market.
The three models born, was: S, SE and SX. The SX was the top of the range car.

The car was equipped with GM Family 1 D-TEC engines, ranging from 1.5 liter (1,549 cc) SOHC, to 1.6 liter (1,598 cc) DOHC. In the UK were distributed E-TEC models, with 1.4 liter (1,349 cc) and 1.6 liter (1,598 cc).
The Lanos production was finally finished after the 2002 model year, and it was replaced in Korea and Australia by Daewoo Kalos.
