The Evolution® engine—known in certain crowds as the Blockhead—was first bolted to the frame of a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle back in 1984. Born from legendary Shovelhead and Ironhead engines, the Evolution® engine broke new ground in displacement innovation while maintaining the hunger for power, durability and proven reliability that The Motor Company was built on.
The factory installed next-generation security system features a hands-free fob that automatically arms and disarms the vehicle electronic security functions as you approach and walk away from the bike. Stick the fob on your ignition key ring and let it do all the work. It’s this attention to details and security that make Harley-Davidson® motorcycles unique.

2014 Rolls Royce Wraith 


The new Wraith features the company’s usual V-12 engine, but the output has been considerably improved to 624 horsepower and a peak torque of 590 pound-feet.
The engine is mated to an eight-speed automatic ZF transmission and sprints the car from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.4 seconds - a 0.3 seconds improvement over the Ghost.
  Rolls Royce also made a series of changes to the suspension and steering system. The suspension has been tuned to minimize body roll and offer improved handling. The steering system has also been improved to be heavier at high speeds and lighter at low speeds.
 The new Rolls Royce Wraith will be put on sale in the final quarter of 2013 and in Europe prices will start from €245,000 (about $320,000 at the current exchange rates).

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray



The beast under the hood is an all new direct-injection 6.2-liter small-block V-8 engine dubbed the LT1. It produces 450 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque, making it the most powerful standard Corvette ever launched.
Engine Specifications:
Displacement 6.2-liters
Bore & stroke 4.06 in. x 3.62 in.
Block material Cast aluminum
Cylinder head material Cast aluminum
Valvetrain Overhead valve, two valves per cylinder
Fuel delivery Direct injection
Compression ratio 11.5:1
Horsepower 450 (est.)
Torque (lb-ft) 450 (est.)
To cope with stringent carbon emissions and fuel efficiency regulations , the Corvette Stingray sports an Active Fuel Management system that will shut down four cylinders, leaving the`Vette with a 3.1-liter 4-pot engine, for unmatched fuel efficiency when V-8 power isn’t needed . The engine will also feature direct injection and variable valve timing to help it use less fuel. In fact, GM anticipates greater than a 26 mpg highway city rating for the 2014 Corvette, which is quite spectacular when compared to its petrol-chugging rivals.
While the engine has a dual personality, where one sips fuel and the other fires all eight cylinders like a madman, which — thanks to the weight savings of the new aluminum chassis, and a carbon-fiber hood and roof — warps the ’Vette Stingray from 0 to 60 mph in under four seconds and to an anticipated top speed of 180 to 190 mph.
