2014 Mercedes Benz Review E-Class Car

2014 Mercedes Benz Review E-Class Car

Traçant ses racines depuis le W124 arborait le nom de 'E' pour la première fois en 1986 sous la forme 200E et plus tard en 1994, lorsque le «E» s'installe à comparaître devant la nomenclature de ce que nous connaissons aujourd'hui comme E250, la Classe E reste la fierté de Daimler. La nouvelle Classe E incarne le segment des voitures de luxe de taille moyenne avec un mobilier élégant et de fabrication exigeante, et même si son ni aussi sportive que la Classe C, ni aussi luxueux que la Classe S, il chevauche la frontière entre les deux dans un rétro approche et élégant avec une aura particulière qui parle doucement encore retentissante à ses pairs, «assez de concours de regarder, papa est là."

Conception

Pour 2014, le respire la E-Class de ce qui pourrait bien être le lifting le plus solide de son histoire. Il dispose d'une myriade de changements, le plus notable étant sur le carénage avant, où un nouveau nez avec des phares plus raffinés a été employé, avec sa signature quad-lampes maintenant fusionnées en deux, le genre de lifting remanié sur le Lexus LX570. Grille des choix ont été étendues par sa nature simpliste pour paraître plus chic, avec la version AVANTGARDE portant deux barres horizontales tandis que le coupé et le cabriolet types ont une seule coupe de la grille à mi-chemin et marque le logo Mercedes au milieu. L'élégance réserves réduire son mode avec barres chromées simples comme dans la Classe-C. Le pare-chocs reste sans lumières et monte vers les extrémités avec une ligne bon fonctionnement de bout en bout qui s'abat au milieu lui donnant un aspect avant-gardiste sublime. Les modifications apportées à l'arrière comprennent le lissage des lignes dans les ailes arrière, mais cela n'a pas appliqué les versions coupé et cabriolet. Autres modifications apportées à ces versions incluent également la réduction des effectifs de la E350 à un moteur à quatre cylindres E250 tandis que les modèles AMG maintenant embrasser une norme quatre roues motrices.

Résultats

Une Classe E n'est pas une autre Classe E, ainsi, parlant de manière empirique. C'est parce qu'il s'agit d'une Classe E à presque chaque point de la courbe de rendement, à partir de E250 à la E63 AMG. Le moteur le plus commun est la base à essence de 3,5 litres produisant 211 kW (302 ch) et accélère de 0 à 100 km / h en 7 secondes environ. Ce moteur est très efficace, avec son économie de carburant allant de 5,5 à 6,0 litres aux 100 km sur un large éventail. La version hybride est plus économique pour elle sirote un maigre 4 litres pour la même distance. La E63 AMG dispose d'un 385 kW (550 ch) du moteur V8 bi-turbo qui passe de 0 - 100 km / h en 4 secondes. (Ce fut la berline la plus rapide jusqu'en 2006.) Transmissions disponibles pour la Classe E comprend une boîte manuelle à 6 rapports et une automatique à 7 rapports dénommée la 7G-TRONIC, qui est similaire à la DSG de Volkswagen qui a fait le CC a remarquablement alimenter voiture efficace. Une innovation intéressante ici est le mode M qui permet une certaine émotion puisque le conducteur peut changer de vitesse comme dans un manuel pour un temps prédéfini après quoi le système revient en mode automatique par défaut. Également de série est le mode de démarrage / arrêt ECO similaire à Mazda i-STOP. Cette coupe le moteur lorsque vous arrêtez pendant les embouteillages et redémarre lorsque vous ouvrez le gaz. Cette fonction peut toutefois être désactivée en appuyant sur un bouton pour les personnes qui trouveront la mise en marche et d'arrêt déconcertante.

Intérieur

Le changement est aussi bon que le repos, et dans les organisations mondiales d'entreprises qui entretiennent avec l'évolution du monde ont toujours un avantage compétitif sur leurs concurrents. Mais alors que les moteurs du changement s'affairaient sur les panneaux extérieurs, peu d'entre eux ont vu leur chemin à l'intérieur de la campagne 2014 Mercedes-Classe E. Il ya encore beaucoup d'espace pour cinq adultes pour s'asseoir dans le confort et les sièges avant sont parmi les plus confortables de sa catégorie, avec l'ajustement et la finition intérieure en général être sans reproche. J'ai cependant trouvé un peu décevant par Mercedes pour utiliser sièges sellerie de vinyle dans le modèle de base tout en moins voitures comme Kia entraînent des sièges en cuir chauffants avec des options. Pour les modèles commençant par l'élégance couper un choix en aluminium ou en carbone-look garniture est disponible. Dans la base et l'élégance garnitures du tableau de bord dispose d'un contour noir sur chaque cadran tandis que les versions AVANTGARDE ont une doublure d'argent sur le tableau de bord. Le changement le plus visible est que le levier de changement de vitesse est nulle part pour être vu. Et si vous pensez qu'il emploie la fonction télescopique du pommeau de levier de Jaguar puis ce n'est pas le cas. Au lieu de cela, les opérations de vitesse sont traitées au volant multi-fonctionnel à travers le levier DIRECT-SHIFT avec palettes au volant. Les manettes sont fermes et réactif, mais le système COMAND peut être un peu pétillante. Caméra de vue arrière est en option sur les modèles de base, mais le streaming Bluetooth et toit ouvrant électrique sont la norme. D'autres prestations luxueuses comprennent des sièges adaptatifs de sport, Surround View Camera, navigation à commande vocale et un plus grand que la vie de 1200 watts, 14 haut-parleurs Bang & Olufsen ® système audio.

Sécurité

Mises à jour clés de la E-Class 2014 viennent du côté de l'électronique, l'amélioration de la sécurité grâce à un réseau de capteurs et d'algorithmes. Il dispose d'un système d'information angle mort pour surveiller les wagons de conduite dans la zone aveugle de la voiture et une caméra stéréo monté à l'avant de suivre des obstacles et de la circulation. Technologie PRE-SAFE de Mercedes est standard avec un add-on: DISTRONIC PLUS-. Il s'agit essentiellement d'un système qui «détecte» un accident venant en sens inverse et se ferme automatiquement les fenêtres et le toit ouvrant, resserre les ceintures de sécurité, remplit des coussins d'air et déplace les sièges à une position plus sûre, par exemple si vous étiez couché. Une autre innovation de la sécurité qui se trouvait dans la Classe S, mais est maintenant incluse dans le E-Class 2014 est l'ATTENTION ASSIST. Ce système surveille votre conduite pendant les vingt premières minutes de sorte que vous devriez commencer à montrer une somnolence ou des signes de fatigue il émet de façon alarmante et si votre attention ne répond pas aux normes exigées puis il s'arrête. La voiture peut également maintenir une distance définie ci-dessous pour éviter de heurter la voiture en face et vous aide à rester en piste en indiquant si une voiture est dans une ruelle vous voulez changer. Parallèlement à ces et d'autres capteurs de 2014 E-Class peut même se diriger dans des circonstances limitées et à faible vitesse.

Pour résumer, la Mercedes E-Class 2014 a non seulement aérodynamique élégant qui définissent perfection visuelle, il implique également un tour super lisse avec la variante cabriolet étant le plus silencieux de sa catégorie grâce au système Aircap windshied monté et vent arrière technologie de déflecteur. La Classe E a toujours été le membre réservé de la famille Mercedes, mais il a appris à être plus orientée vers les besoins du conducteur. La famille s'agrandit, et la Classe E ne fait que s'améliorer. C'est pourquoi, lorsque vous regardez la E-Class Mercedes-Benz 2014 vous vous rendez compte que ce n'est pas seulement le travail d'un groupe de personnes - c'est le résultat d'une tradition constamment raffiné....

Lemon Law - How To Make A Lemonade From Your Sour Experience.

Lemon Law Background

The term “Lemon-Law” is a nick name derived from other common terms
such as “Lemon-Car”, “Monday-cars” and “Friday-Cars”.

A lemon car is a defective car that, when purchased new or used, is found by the purchaser to have numerous or severe defects not readily apparent before the purchase. Any vehicle with these issues can be termed a "lemon car" and by extension, any product which has major flaws that render it unfit for its purpose can be described as a "lemon product".

New vehicles directly from the factory may contain hidden mechanical flaws or defects in workmanship, usually caused by an error during the build process of the car. These errors can range from parts being installed incorrectly, a tool that was used to build the car not being removed, a batch of materials with structural or chemical flaws or simply bad design.

Usually, a car is labeled a lemon if the same problem occurs 3 times in a row over a short period, and previous attempts at repair have not repaired the problem. In most cases, if you get a lemon, lemon laws will make the company buy back the car or exchange it.

Many of you might remember that during the late eighties the average American consumer almost lost faith completely with the American made cars.
The amount of lemon cars along with the high rate of over the average visits
to the car garages as well as the high repairs and spare parts cost, caused many Americans to switch to Japanese and even European cars.

This was a period of time when Americans were reluctant to go to the dealers garages and preferred to go to oil & lube services only.

At that time Lee Iacocca the CEO of Chrysler Corp identified immediately the problem of mistrust of American consumers in American made cars, Chrysler launched a campaign on national TV promising to provide a bumper-to-bumper warranty coverage for 50,000 miles or five years, which ever comes first! Then GM came with the answer of 60,000 miles or 6 years, which ever comes first! Chrysler returned with the final stroke of 70,000 miles or 7 years which ever comes first.

Few months later I went to the Buick main dealer garage in long Island,
I was seating in the waiting room, next to me was a very nervous guy, I asked him why was he so upset with the garage, he explained to me that even though he had this bumper-to-bumper warranty It doesn't cover labor and the damn car is more than a week in the garage and they don't seems to be able to find what is the problem with the car...

The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act is Known as the "Lemon Law"


The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act is a United States federal law codified
at 15 USC 50. Enacted in 1975, it is the federal statute that governs
warranties on consumer products

The Act was sponsored by Senators Warren G. Magnuson of Washington and Frank Moss of Utah, both Democrats.
State Lemon Laws have some differences like coverage of motorcycles and used vehicles, but there are some basic guidelines that they do share.
(See 50 state by state Lemon Law Summaries at:
http://autopedia.com/html/HotLinks_Lemon2.html).

In passing the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, Congress specified a number of requirements that warrantors must meet. Congress also directed the FTC to adopt rules to cover other requirements.

The FTC adopted three Rules under the Act, the Rule on Disclosure of Written Consumer Product Warranty Terms and Conditions (the Disclosure Rule), the Rule on Pre-Sale Availability of Written Warranty Terms (the Pre-Sale Availability Rule), and the Rule on Informal Dispute Settlement Procedures (the Dispute Resolution Rule). In addition, the FTC has issued an interpretive rule that clarifies certain terms and explains some of the provisions of the Act. This section summarizes all the requirements under the Act and the Rules.

The Act and the Rules establish three basic requirements that may apply to a warrantor or a seller.

A. As a warrantor, you must designate, or title, your written warranty as either "full" or "limited."

B. As warrantor, you must state certain specified information about the coverage of your warranty in a single, clear and easy to read document.

C. As a warrantor or a seller, you must ensure that warranties are available where your warranted consumer products are sold so that consumers can read them before buying.

The laws define what a lemon car is and require that the manufacturer, not the dealer, takes care of the defects. If a number of attempts have been made to repair a defect that significantly impairs the use, value or safety of a car and the car continues to have this defect, the car is than considered to be a "lemon".

Most statutes set up a warranty rights period of either 12 to 24 months or 12,000 to 24,000 miles. The defect(s) must occur sometime during this period.

Many of the state laws contain specific guidelines as to what constitutes a sufficient number of attempts to repair, and whether these attempts entitle the consumer to a refund or replacement. These are:

a. If the defect is a serious safety defect involving brakes and or steering, the manufacturer is granted one attempt to repair.

b. If there is a safety defect that is not considered a serious safety defect, the manufacturer has two attempts to repair.

c. For any other defect, the manufacturer is usually given three or four chances to repair the same defect.

d. If at any time the vehicle is in the shop for a cumulative total of 30 days in a one year period, with at least one of those days occurring the first 12,000 miles.

If any one of these of these guidelines can be satisfied, the consumer is usually given the right to require repurchase or replacement of his/her vehicle.

Most lemon laws do allow an offset for use of the vehicle by the consumer. Oftentimes, a reduction in the consumer's purchase price return is used in relation to the number of miles he/she had put on the car. One law spells out the reduction in refund for use as follows:

(miles at time of refund X purchase price)/100,000

Only about one half of the lemon laws allow the consumer to recover attorney's fees in his/her action. Those states that do allow attorney's fees provide for a greater likelihood of success and representation in warranty disputes.

What the Magnuson-Moss Act – Lemon Law, Does Not Require

First, the Act does not require any business to provide a written warranty. The Act allows businesses to determine whether to warrant their products in writing. However, once a business decides to offer a written warranty on a consumer product, it must comply with the Act.

Second, the Act does not apply to oral warranties. Only written warranties are covered.

Third, the Act does not apply to warranties on services. Only warranties on goods are covered. However, if your warranty covers both the parts provided for a repair and the workmanship in making that repair, the Act does apply to you. (Source: http://www.ftc.gov/index.html).

Finally, the Act does not apply to warranties on products sold for resale or for commercial purposes. The Act covers only warranties on consumer products. This means that only warranties on tangible property normally used for personal, family, or household purposes are covered. (This includes property attached to or installed on real property.) Note that applicability of the Act to a particular product does not, however, depend upon how an individual buyer will use it.

Sell Your Car Online: Step 5, Making Search Engines Love Your Classified Ad

Car classifieds websites can help you sell your car or truck very quickly. In step 4 of this series, titled “Sell Your Car Online: Step 4, Writing a Compelling Description of Your Automobile“, you learned how to write a powerful description of your car that transforms the viewer of your classified ad from a browser to a buyer.

The fifth step in placing an ad is making your listing search engine friendly. A crash course in search engine optimization is in order. Being “search engine friendly” means the web page in question has all the correct hidden and visible parts that search engines are looking for. A web page must have the following to be considered search engine friendly:

- TITLE tag, which is shown in the title bar of the window (mine shows “Google – Microsoft Internet Explorer” when visiting Google.com).
- META DESCRIPTION tag, which is only visible if you view the source code.
- HEADER tag, which displays text in a larger font than the rest of the page (just like the headline in a printed newspaper).
- Hyperlinks, which are simple text links that allow navigation on the internet.
- Emphasized text, which is text that is bolded, italicized, or underlined.
- Copywriting of at least 200 -250 words on the page (with a minimum number of images).
- An ALT tag for the first 3 images on your page, which displays when the image is not available.
- The ability for the search engine spiders to index the page.
- A URL that is static, not dynamic.

The key to search engine rankings is which keywords you use and where on the page you use them. For proper search engine optimization, your keyword should show up in the TITLE, the META DESCRIPTION, a HEADER, an ALT tag, a hyperlink, and an emphasized portion of text. Also your keyword should show up 2-3 times per 100 words on your page (once per paragraph should do).

Your page must be indexed by a search engine. Search engines have a piece of code called a spider or robot that actively seeks out web pages to “crawl” or index. They follow links from one web page to another trying to find as many web sites and pages as they can. Once they crawl the site, they add the page to the search engine’s database so it will show up in the search results. But there is a problem. Some of the auto classified web sites do not allow their classified listings to be indexed by the search engines.

The URL needs to be static and not dynamic. Pages that are driven by a database usually have dynamic URLs which include “?”, “=”, or “&” as part of the full address of the page (example: www.someclassifiedsite.com/index.php?a=5&b=222). Search engine spiders have problems indexing pages that have dynamic URLs, though they are ever improving. To ensure your page does not have a problem being indexed, it must be a static URL (example: www.someclassifiedsite.com/category5-222.htm).

So, what does all this mean for you? First you should know that when you place an ad in an auto classified site, you only have control over 2-4 of the 9 criteria listed above. That makes it hard for you to give your listing an advantage over other similar listings in regards to search engine rankings. So let’s take a look at the things you do have control over.

The description you write should have the correct keywords in it. For example, if you have a 1996 Pontiac Firebird Formula for sale, you should ad the term “1996 Pontiac Firebird Formula” once every paragraph. Place the term near the beginning of each paragraph. Also, the term should be emphasized (bolded, italicized, or underlined) in the first paragraph, if the web site allows you to add HTML tags to your description. To bold a word, put before it and after it. To italicize a word, put before it and after it. To underline a word, put before it and after it.

Let’s take another look at the sample description from step 4 in this series. Notice the HTML tags used around the keyword “1996 Pontiac Firebird Formula” in the first and last paragraphs. It is important not to emphasize every keyword. Only emphasize the first and last instance of the keyword in your description.

“This 1996 Pontiac Firebird Formula is in great condition. It has alloy wheels, AC, power everything, and a 6-disc changer. The T-tops are a nice addition, especially in hot weather. Even though this Firebird is 10 years old, it looks like it belongs on the showroom floor. It has flawless red paint on the exterior and a super clean black interior. A brand new automatic transmission was installed only 12 months ago, which is still under warranty.

The best feature about this 1996 Pontiac Firebird Formula is the engine. It has a 5.7 Liter HO V8 that has been well maintained. It does 0-60 in a respectable 5.2 seconds and has a top speed just under 160 MPH. Accelerate and you can hear every one of the 305 horses coming through the exhaust. Any sports car enthusiast would enjoy getting behind the wheel of this one.

Don’t miss this 1996 Pontiac Firebird Formula. It’s a good deal on a great car. Call today.”

It is important to choose the right title for your listing, if the classifieds site you are advertising on allows you to write the listing title. The title should be rather short and include only the most important information about your vehicle. A great title should have the keywords in it that people would use to search for your car or truck. A great title should have the year, make, and model in it, for example, “1996 Pontiac Firebird Formula.” If your car is convertible, you should ad the word “Convertible” to your title.

For a list of keywords that people actually search for on the internet, go to inventory.overture.com. Simply enter the make of the vehicle and it returns the most popular keyword combinations that include that keyword as well as how many times they were searched for in the Yahoo! Network. This will give you a good indication of what people are searching for.

So how do you find an auto classified site that allows the search engines to index their classified listings, displays static URLs, allows you to control your TITLE tag, and allows you to emphasize the text in the Description field? Simple, just go to your favorite search engine and search for a popular make and model car for sale. There should be several classified listings near the top of the search results. Those classified sites are the ones that are the most search engine friendly and would be a great place to post your ad.

By properly inserting these nine page elements that are essential for high search engine placement, your listings have the opportunity to be found by potential buyers when searching the internet. This concludes the series “Sell Your Car Online.” I hope you learned some new techniques in online advertising. Try them out today and see how quickly your automobile will sell.
