Ford Focus Electric Certified at 105 MPGe Combined

The EPA has bestowed upon the Ford Focus Electric a 105-MPGe combined economy rating, earning the car, in the words of Ford, the title of “most fuel-efficient five-passenger vehicle” sold in America. The Blue Oval, as champions are sometimes wont to do, has commenced trash-talking the Nissan Leaf. (More on MPGe here.)



Ford points out that the Focus’s combined figure beats that of Nissan’s EV by 6 MPGe, and that it also takes the highway-mileage crown by 7 MPGe, returning 99 MPGe. We’ll go ahead and add that the Ford also beats the Leaf in the city, 110 MPGe to 106. The Focus also received an official range rating of 76 miles on a single charge. The Leaf trails in that metric, too, with an EPA-approved range of 73 miles, although we averaged just 58 miles per charge during our long-term test of the Nissan. We’d expect Focus Electric range to similarly suffer in real-world conditions.

As for charge time, Ford says the Focus’s 23-kWh battery pack can be rejuvenated in about four hours on 240-volt juice, or three fewer than the seven hours required to charge the Leaf’s 24-kWh battery pack using the same hookup. The Focus Electric gets 123 hp and 181 lb-ft from its electric motor; the Leaf’s pumps out 107 hp and 207 lb-ft.

The Focus Electric will be available in California, New York, and New Jersey by this summer, and Ford will add 16 additional markets by the end of the year. One detail that Ford fails to mention is that, at $39,995 before tax credits, its hatchback EV starts $3000 dearer than the Leaf.

LeMons Southern Discomfort Day One : Saab 9-3 Leads, Silver Errors 190E 2.3-16 in Second

With the Midwest tornadoes putting the concept of “bad weather” into perspective, the Southern Discomfort LeMons racers took a rainy green flag at Carolina Motorsports Park with nary a complaint. The downpours, however, did encourage a healthy amount of spinnin,’ slidin,’ and drivin’ full speed into ta’dirt in your Monte Carlo. Of course, this event marked the first time the LeMons has run the longer, trickier, and much faster full-length CMP configuration. With the soggy weather and higher-speed layout, even the best-handling cars struggled to keep all the wheels pointing the right way. (Monte Carlos didn’t stand a chance.)

As is often the case, however, such conditions don’t seem to affect the frontrunners nearly as much as the lower ranks–by the time the checkered flag fell on Saturday’s session, the top spots were filled with familiar faces.



With once-proud Saab quickly slipping into oblivion, the race-leading 9-3 sedan of rbankracing.com is providing a pinpoint of light for the vegetative automaker. Or it’s possible that this Saab-centric team’s consistently excellent LeMons performances pushed the Swedish brand off the cliff more quickly. In any case, the 9-3′s turbocharged speed and clean-driving pilots will be difficult to beat on Sunday.



The Ziegel Scheißhaus Racing squad—competing this time under the Silver Errors banner—managed to score a genuine Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3-16 for LeMons money. Before you cry foul, remember this: Any Gordon Gekko wannabe worth his Rolex Submariner would have dumped his 2.3-16 at the first signs of trouble—which likely happened for every example right around the same time as the fall of the Berlin Wall. A ragtag bunch of careless owners likely followed, culminating in a lien sale from a 17-year-old owner who got sent to juvie after going DTM down Maple Street. That’s just one possibility, of course, but one thing is clear: Not all 2.3-16s are classics. The ZSR LeMons entry certainly isn’t a museum piece, but it’s DTM impression is halfway decent: Second place overall is a good result regardless of pedigree.



Holding down the third spot is one of the most successful LeMons teams of all time, Hong Norrth. In fact, the team’s trusty Mazda MX3 has won the last five races it’s entered, so it’s way too early to count them out.



NSF Racing is rolling proof that LeMons is highly unpredictable. After this very blog predicted an early demise for the team’s factory-turbo Cordia, this example of a seldom-seen Mitsubishi soldiered (slowly) through day one with no terminal issues. Through the first half of the day, NSF held a lead over a handful of other teams with which they had friendly pre-race wagers. The cars in on the bet? The Cordia, a Ford LTD, a ’67 Galaxie, and the first-ever LeMons AMC Pacer.



But after spending the second half of day one battling a self-lowering redline, the Cordia crew finally had to break out the wrenches. The culprit—which we’ll charitably call “fuel contamination”—was eventually identified and remedied. The Cordia rejoined the track as the session was near its end, promptly setting NSF Racing’s (still glacially slow) fastest lap of the race.



With the Cordia taking a short vacation on pit road, the hulking Ford LTD of the LeMons-veteran Tunachuckers team surged ahead in the aforementioned unofficial race-within-a race. With the big Ford clicking off consistently quicker lap times than the Cordia, the Mitsubishi team will need an LTD problem on Sunday to retake the lead. Just by taking a quick glance at this rolling oil derrick, we’d say a problem is pretty likely.

Htc Explorer Sound quality is great. It features a SRS surround sound enhancement technology. So you can feel the surround sound of its headphone. You will find the high quality surround sound from this smartphone. In my view, this is the best pros or advantage as a cheap phone. It has also a 3.5mm audio jack for listening audio in other external device. A Genuine HTC headset is free with this phone. Please be sure when you will purchase that, you have a free HTC headset with this phone. Otherwise the great sound quality of this phone is missed.

HTC explorer processor is a little bit slow. Because is use a 600 MHz Cortex A5 single core processor. But htc says about this phone, it works fast. This phone runs on android gingerbread operating system. So it need to a good CPU for better processing performance. I think, this phone can run average android apps and games with this single core processor and Adreno 200 GPU. As a cheap smartphone for it’s 3d capability games and graphics, this GPU work for this device great. Because this phones graphics quality is awesome and better than other smartphones at this price range. This phone’s Ram is 512 mb. That is enough for a gingerbread android os fast performance.

Archos Child Pad Android tablet runs ICS

Believing in children's capability to add a new dimension to reading, studying and exploring the nuances of communication, these days, is a must. It's because from the tender age of four the learn Angry Birds and sometimes even brain teasers. That's what we see as the motivating factor behind the carving of the Archos Child Pad Android tablet. The tablet is a 7-inch wonder that seems to be cut out for young minds. It will have Android Ice Cream Sandwich and will run on a 1GHz processor, 1GB RAM, have its own App Store that has over 10,000 applications for this age group. Much needed and present in this one is a parental control application that helps parents deny Web access.

Just because the Archos Child Pad is targeted towards a rather young audience, the company wasn’t going to power it up with any old slice of Gingerbread. Getting its steam from nothing less than the Ice Cream Sandwich OS, the device works with 1GB of RAM and a 1GHz processor.


The Archos Child Pad is chipped out to sport a noticeably compact and lightweight form factor, keeping its potential user in mind. A 7-inch touchscreen display stretches across its face and though we’d like to know more, that’s the last detail Archos is presently giving out when it comes to the hardware specifications.


The slate will offer access to the Kids App Store supported by AppsLib. The applications will be separated into 14 categories and the 10,000 available apps are set to cover entertainment, games, communication, multimedia, comics, sports, books and more. Flight Frenzy, Pig Rush and Angry Birds as well as a few other apps will arrive pre-loaded onto the Archos Child Pad.


“As a pioneer in the portable audio and Android tablet market we realize the importance of providing a tablet that can offer hours of entertainment for all ages, especially kids. Archos strives to offer great tablets with only the best of features at affordable prices and we expect this tablet to bring a smile to the faces of kids and parents’ everywhere,” elaborated Henri Crohas, Founder and CE, Archos.


It goes without saying that the UI on this tablet for kids is designed so that it’s easy to navigate, with colored icons and homescreen folders delivering direct access to various applications. Additionally, the ICS slab rubs along just fine with CIPA and COPPA regulations, onboard parental controls and internet surfing powered by Editions Profil.


The Archos Child Pad price amounts to around $129. It will be seen in stores towards the end of March.

LG Optimus L3 heads to EU this month

LG Optimus L3 heads to EU this month

LG is eager to bring the L-style magic to all of Europe with their early exploits in Spain. The LG Optimus L3 will be making it to the entire continent pretty soon. The phone will pack a dual-core 800MHz processor, Android 2.3 Gingerbread (oh boy, oh boy), 3.2-inch display screen, 2GB RAM, 150MB internal storage, 3-megapixel camera and 1500 mAh battery.

Speaking of which: the Optimus L3 is the smallest of the L-series, with a 3.2-inch LCD display running at just 320×240 pixels. It’s powered by an 800mhz single-core processor – fast enough for LG’s customized version of Gingerbread, but don’t expect it to fly. The camera on the back is just 3.2 megapixels. The big draw for the L3 (and in many ways the other two L-series phones) is the styling, which apes LG’s previous partnerships with PRADA to make a squared-off sleek look. IN the realm of low-end Android phones the L3 is certainly a looker, which should help buyers look over its lack of advanced wireless.


Strangely, LG has said nothing of the Optimus L5 or Optimus L7, the much more powerful and (for most) desirable parts of the stylish phone series. Considering their concurrent announcement the phones can’t be too far apart in production, but the superior components and unique chassis of the larger phones may be throwing roadblocks on their path to release. It’s also interesting that LG is choosing Europe as the primary market, at least for the L3: one would expect them to release it in their home territory of South Korea first.

It has an ambient light sensor that lets the computer do the adjustment on brightness if it is activated. The biggest problem so far is the lack of vertical space despite of the 16:9 aspect ratios.

For the speakers, it has a loud sound output and this laptop is good for media playback. The graphics card is a weak solution for business laptops. It is rather enough to cater the needs of an average laptop workload and high definition videos but this is not really for games out there.
