Nissan is the pioneer in creating firsts of the first compact pickup trucks in the market. They will start something, others will follow. Some of their notable creations were the first extended cab body style seen in the 1979 Nissan King Cab and the first crew cab body style compact pickup in the D22 series.
Nissan Frontier, also Nissan Navara, is the most popular term for the D22 series by Nissan, together with the D40 generations. These are mostly sold in North, Central and South America and in the Philippines. It was first introduced in 1997 and still out in the market, under two series, namely the D22 and D40. The Nissan Navara is the first in most Asian countries to have a six speed manual transmission for a pickup truck. Such technology can give more mileage to the Frontier owner.
Compared to older versions of pickup trucks, the Nissan Navara is equipped with better suspension and shock absorbers to ensure comfort and luxury while on the road. It will also have a new headlamp design with distinctive projector styling and a new set of 16-inch (steel and alloy) and 17-inch (alloy) wheels. The Nissan Navara is available with the options for 4x2 or a 4x4 drivetrain.
The 2011 Nissan Navara has two options for its engine; the first is generating 350 horsepower from a six-cylinder 3.0 liter engine. The other option is 2.5dCi 4-cylinder engine that produces 190 hp 450 Nm of torque. These engine variants produces enough power to ensure getting the tasks done with utility-related jobs. The new direct injection V6 turbodiesel has been developed by the Renault Nissan Alliance to deliver high levels of performance with strong economy, competitive emissions and class-leading refinement.
Although the new pickup truck will get a new bonnet, the signature front grille with the Nissan emblem will remain the same. There will also have new projector headlights and lightly restyled bumpers which were added 80mm to the length of each models. Additional after market parts are also available to meet all your utility needs such as additional tray for more luggage space.
On the interiors, a new switchgear will be featured together with updated door trims, upholstery, chrome highlights and restyled dials. You will also see a new seat fabric that can bring in more comfortable atmosphere, even when running on a rugged road. Nissan Navara, or Nissan Frontier will also possess a Nissan Connect premium with a new high resolution touch screen, this depends on the model though.
The Nissan Navara was first launched at the Geneva Motor Show, along with the Nissan Pathfinder. Both are expected to be on sale on the markets of Europe in April of 2010.
QUESTION:
Does anyone know about the new regulations on diesel engines and fuel that take effect in January?
I'm considering the purchase of a diesel pickup or van for work. I've heard that the new rules will make the 2007 diesels less desireable and I should buy a 2006 before the end of the year. Any advice?
ANSWER:
It does not matter. The only fuel that will be available after this year will be the Ultra low sulfur diesel fuel. All diesel fuel will be replaced with it, there will not be a choice of fuels. The older diesels will be compatible with the new fuel. Fuel manufacturers are responsible for placing additives in the fuel to provide enough lubricity to make up for the loss of sulfur. Get the 2007 or the 2006, either way by the end of next year all low sulfur fuel should be replaced by Ultra low sulfur fuel. Hope this clears it up some.

This is factory stock and they all seem to have it as of 2006 or 2007? What real purpose does it searve?

Added cooling or to produce a low pressure at exhaust, aiding flow at high speeds.

QUESTION:
Why do so many people want to buy my truck? Its an 1984 Dodge ram 50?
So, my bro just gave me this truck, 1984 dodge ram 50 turbo diesel 4x4. (aka mitsubishi mighty max)
Everywhere i go, either gas stations, parking at stores, or just waiting at a light, I get asked if its for sale and how much and they're all eager to buy it. I mean, its old, rusted, black smoke comes from the muffler (injectors probably) and its just really small and old.
so confused.
ANSWER:
because its a rare find,let alone in any kind of running condition those in the know,know its a collectible now,and worth more than it'd appear.if the body is in decent shape,and not too heavily rusted.id look into repairing the body,or ordering replacement body panels.as for the td it probably is the injectors.run some Lucas fuel treatment thru it and see if that helps clear em up.otherwise you may have to get the injectors replaced or rebuilt.odds are that a modern small diesel engine,like yanmar or kubota may have a acceptable replacement injector.
QUESTION:
what kind of truck do i need to haul a mudding truck / 23-25' boat.?
Hello, I was wondering whether I need a 150/250/350 1500/2500/3500. Someone I know has a lifted 4x4 1978 f150 mud truck for sale and I was thinking about getting it. The only problem is that It isn't street legal. I'm wondering what kind of truck I need to pull this (I would prefer a diesel so I can use it for many years as a work truck). Also, in the future I plan to get a 21-24' wakeboard/skii boat. I think this may be lighter than the truck so.. I've researched the different weights trucks can pull, but I still can't really decide.
ANSWER:
Without knowing the exact weight you just have to guess. I'm guessing the truck weighs about 6000lbs. Most light duty trucks can haul this with no problem. Even a 24' ski boat can be towed easily by a light duty. If you want a diesel you'll have to go with the 250/2500 or higher though. But from what you are saying, you don't need the heavy duty trucks for this type of work.
Mahindra Xylo Mini To Launch At Auto Expo 2012, Price, Features And Specifications
The Auto Expo is a great platform for automakers to launch new car models along with another vehicles. A number of auto makers display their new vehicles at this mega platform. And at the New Delhi Auto Expo 2012 Mahindra & Mahindra also planing to display its new car models at the New Delhi Auto Expo. The company will display a large series of Mahindra car models such as Mahindra Xylo Mini, Electric version of Mahindra Verito, New Toyota Innova, New Toyota Fortuner, Reva NXR, Mahindra Korando and Mahindra Rexton.
All these newly developed Mahindra car models will be launched in the Indian domestic auto market by near future. Among all these new Mahindra car models, Mahindra Xylo Mini will first make its presence in the market. Mahindra Xylo Mini is the compact version of popular MUV Mahindra Xylo which has been most popular since its launch for reliable performance and great comfort features.
The all new Mahindra Xylo Mini is the combination of MUV (Multi Utility Vehicle) and big hatchback which make it different kind of vehicle in the market. The new Mahindra Xylo Mini price will be similar at the available premium hatchback car models in India. The new Mahindra Xylo Mini review reports that it will be offered in the price bracket of Rs. 6 lakh to Rs. 8 lakh ex-showroom Dehi. And it would eat the market share of Maruti Swift, Skoda Fabia, Hyundai i20, Ford Figo, Volkswagen Polo and Honda Jazz.
Mahindra Xylo Mini features are most advanced while Mahindra Xylo Mini Specifications great which make it decent in the segment. The is offering ABS, Foldable stretch seats, Airbags etc. features in the beast as standard. And all the Mahindra Xylo variants will come equipped with all these special features which ensure to offer great comfort, convenience and safety to passengers driver.
Firt of all Mahindra to offer this 5-seater and 5 doors having Mini Xylo in diesel model that has a 1.5 liter, 1498cc, 5-speed gearbox with manual transmission, turbocharged CRDi engine under the hood. Mahindra Xylo Mini mileage is also speculated impressive like 16 kmpl in city and 20 kmpl on highway. After some time a 1.2-liter petrol engine powered model will also be offered to the buyers.
Mahindra Xylo Mini pictures have already been leaked out which look awesome and attract every premium hatchback buyer. But to know about that how many Mahindra Xylo Mini variants will be offered get ready to its official launch at the New Delhi Auto Expo 2012.
On the other hand some of newly launched car models in India in 2011 are New Honda City, new Tata Nano, Skoda Rapid, Hyundai Eon, Nissan Sunny, new Tata Indica Vista, Force One, New Maruti Swift, New Volkswagen Jetta, New Honda Jazz, Honda Brio, Toyota Etios Liva, Ford Fiesta, Chevrolet Beat diesel, Audi A6, Tata Aria 4x2, new Tata Indica Xeta, Mahindra XUV 500 etc.
The previous year was quite good for pick up truck business. The gas prices were stabilized and economy too was doing pretty good. Hence, automobile pundits are predicting good years ahead for truck and car sales. Light duty trucks makers like GMC, Ford, Dodge, and Chevrolet said that they wont be adding any light duty diesel engines to their power train series of trucks. We hope that these projects are only on hold and we will see them some time after economy gets better.
Also, you should know that Dodge pick ups will get Rams badge. Dodge name will then be reserved strictly for crossovers and cars and the new Ram brand will be applicable to just the pick ups and the commercial vans. The latter hasnt been launched but will come out soon.
Other changes for the light duty trucks have been pretty minima. The biggest news on the modification front has been power train tweaks. All the three domestics give heavy duty 3 quarter and 1 ton pick ups and in this article, we will write only about the popular half ton big pickups. The pay load capacity starts at around 1,300 pounds but in most of the cases, it can be significantly increased with heavy duty optional suspensions. The standard towing capacity is from 4,500 pounds to 8,700 pounds but it can be increased in few of the models with trailer towing optional package. You should be wary of the fact that raising payload rating needs stiffer rear springs and this gives you rougher ride and skipping that is more lateral in the bumpy corners. These trait are already creating problems in light duty trucks.
All these pick up are available in rear or four wheel drive but not all of these systems are made equal. The rear drive versions might benefit from traction control; it limits the tire slip while accelerating on the slippery surface. It is seen on all the big pick ups but not on every model. Most of the standard four wheel drive systems have to be switched off on the dry pavement for avoiding drive line binding and any excessive wear. But the GM Autotrac 4WD that is available on Chevy Avalanche, GMC Sierra, and Silverado can be engaged left of the dry pavement just like Dodge Ram all wheel system of drive. Ford let go it if AWD system which was previously available on the last year models.
Sales volume of the small pickups raised a bit last year and it ended a slider which was haunting us for more than one decade. However, the market share for all the vehicles continued to fall. Most of volume increase was because of strong sales for Nissan Frontier; it rose to 42.3 percent which is highest sales gain percentage wise for any high volume pick up in the previous year.
There was just one full sized pick up brand which lost sales over year over for 2010 Cadillac and it lend support to conventional wisdom which casual truck buyers are gone from the full sized pick ups for good.

QUESTION:
What is the best heavy duty pick up for hauling Featherlite livestock trailer?
Ag Science Program hauls to state shows 6 times a year. The truck is also used for regular meetings throughout the state. Must be a super cab.
ANSWER:
You'll find a lot of opinions on brand, but whichever you choose, I would strongly suggest 1 ton or larger. GM 3500 or Ford F-350/450 or Dodge 3500. All will be available in some form of a 4 door/crew configuration.
Talk with some folks involved the livestock industry at the shows or even local farmers. They'll give you plenty of input on towing livestock or other agricultural towing applications.
QUESTION:
Why are heavy-duty diesels only 6 cylinders?
Pick-up trucks usually have diesel V8's...but the super-heavy-duty diesels like in semis and buses only have 6 cylinders...why?
ANSWER:
They run smoother. Inline six cylinder engines are one of the few configurations that have perfect primary and secondary balance. This means they can be quite large and vibration will not be as big of an issue compared to a v8 of an equal displacement.
They are very strong, inline six engines use 7 main bearings wheras a v8 uses 5. This make them very reliable.
Inlines are also simpler and easier to work on than a v-type engine.
QUESTION:
I'm deciding to get a pick-up truck, which one i should get?
The trucks i'm looking for is either, a Ford F-150, Dodge Ram 1500, Chevrolet Silverado or the Honda Ridgeline. Any of them will do since i'll be using it for heavy duty things like house renovations, carrying heavy items (Bricks, concrete, etc) and along with off-road driving, and harsh road conditions especially in winter.
ANSWER:
Any of them WON'T do ! The Ridgeline is a great truck but it's payload capacity is only 1550lbs. I'd go with the F150 or the Toyota Tundra. Make sure to check the payload capacities to see if it will suit your needs! The F150 payload capacity is 6450 to 8200 . If you carry more than that you may need an F250.
How To Choose A Proper Hid Conversion Kits Lights For Your Ride.
HID lights have revolutionized the world of automotive's headlight system, HID lights has replaced most of the original halogen headlight for car and trucks, as it brings superior lighting, wider vision, longer lifetime and lower power consumptions. It makes HID lights getting more and more popular, as you can see almost all lastest car model are equipped with HID headlight system.
What is HID
For years, engineers and technicians have been working on creating the perfect headlights for your car. As a result, a variety of lighting systems have been developed. These include halogen headlights and High Intensity Discharge (HID) bulbs. Among these automotive lighting systems, the HID bulb has proven to be the most efficient.
High-intensity discharge (HID) lamps are a type of electrical lamps which produce light by means of an electric arc between tungsten electrodes housed inside a translucent or transparent fused quartz or fused alumina tube.
Advantages for HID Lights :
- Greater output of light , can up to 3 times brighter than a halogen bulbs
- Cover almost 70% of the road , have a better vision when driving.
- Greater Durability, withstands a greater amount of vibrations and shocks.
- Greater bulb lift, can last up to 4-10 years or 3 times longer than a original halogen
bulbs.
- Lesser power consumption, save up to 25%.
Halogen lights have been around for a long time and will probably still be around for the years to come. However, people are beginning to realize the edge of installing an HID kit. The yellowish beams produced by the conventional halogen bulb does not compare to the bright white light of the HID bulb. HID bulbs also consume less power than halogen lamps.
Compare the life span of your old halogen lamp to that of an HID bulb. Youll be amazed to find out that while your halogen lamp has a limited lifetime, a top-of the-line HID bulb will last the lifetime of your car. Before you trade in your old headlights, check out your options. Hundreds of manufacturers and distributors have popped up due to the incredible demand for the product, thus, youll have to do some window-shopping or site hopping.
And the price for a full kit of HID lights, it's getting cheaper and cheaper, it's around USD 109 shipped, and most vendor offer 1 year warranty for your kits. So it's not a bad idea to upgrade your halogen bulbs to HID bulbs. Please make sure that you know what kits you need to install your hid lights, here are something you should know before purchasing a new hid kits.
1. Single Beam Conversion Kits
2. High/Low Beam - Hi/Lo Kit
3. Telescope Kit
4. Bi-xenon HID Kit
QUESTION:
Do you think using recycled scrap metal from cars & trucks would work to hopefully insure cheaper car prices?
Metals are at a boom right now but, gas prices are turning Americans inside out literally to search for must needed extra money to pay for gas. Bur, what if instead of leaving cars to rot in abandoned car lots. We recycle the car and trucks to make new more durable and reliable vehicles.
If it cost the same to make new metal for cars as t does to recycle then why not recycle. You may not save money recycling but, you will help leave a cleaner world for future generations and thats priceless.
ANSWER:
Cars have made from recycled steel, alum, plastics and rubber for 20 years. You just dont see it because the recycled pieces come from the same manufacturing plants.
QUESTION:
How much do car dealerships actually mark up new cars & trucks?
My question comes from a conversation with friends over the government bailout of the automakers. One of my friends used to be part owner in a GM dealership that went down a few years ago. He said that the dealership would usually get an invoice from the manufacturer that would include at least a 50% mark-up. There would also be a MSRP sticker posted on the vehicle that would have a 100% mark-up on the price that would give the dealer plenty of room for haggle and still make a strong profit. So,,,,, what is the truth?
ANSWER:
It varies as to the demand for the car. The markup is a closely guarded secret. Several years ago, when Suburbans were selling for k, the dealer was clearing about , per sale (that's profit after expenses). So, 30% is not unusual (to me).
The dealer can show you his invoice. I put on an invoice ANY price I want you to see. Their invoice paperwork isn't worth the paper it's written on. I'm not sure Consumer Reports get's honest information from the manufacturers.
The dealer's objective is to get the most he possibly can from the customer. The customer's objective is to get the price of the car down as low as he possible can. I'll guarantee you, the customer loses every time. There are add-ons after the negotiated price that jacks it back up to the original asking price (dealer prep, shipping, doc fees, and any imaginative fee the dealer can think of - floor space fee, economic recovery fee, mistress fee).
QUESTION:
Can you use compact/small car jumper cables on large cars/trucks?
i went to go buy jumper cables and i found really cheap ones for small or compact cars and it went up from there to mid size and heavy duty for suvs and trucks. i always thought i could use any jumper cables but am i wrong? i got a durango so would i need the 40 dollar heavy duty ones to jump my v8?
ANSWER:
You cannot, the amperage that the small cables will allow is not enough for a larger sized car that requires more power. I deal with batteries daily. I have learned for myself.
QUESTION:
If you're in a car, should you take the car lane or the 'Cars, Trucks and Buses' lane?
Which, do you think, has less traffic?
ANSWER:
In most states in the USA, for a four-lane highway (two lanes in each direction) the policy is to keep right except to pass. That means you would stay in the right hand lane unless you need to pull out to pass a vehicle in front of you, and you would return to the right hand lane as soon as it's safe to do so without interfering with the vehicle(s) you have just passed.
For larger freeways with three or more lanes going in each direction, it's probably better to avoid the far right (merge) lane unless you need to use an exit that's coming up. For these, I prefer one of the center lanes.

ATVs are the vehicles that are the off-road vehicles and also are created for making fun and having adventurous experience from the rides. USA is having the largest users of ATVs but recently the sales of new ATVs has gone down steeply due to many of the reasons like Recession, stiff competition from the used ATV industries and also the lower purchasing power of the people. The increasing unemployment ratio is also the major cause of lowering purchasing potential. But the lower standard of living has not affected the popularities of ATVs and therefore people are turning more towards the used ATVs for sale industries.
There are many of the benefits in buying the used vehicles as they can be earned quite cheaply, the better and smarter brands can be bought in the budgets and also the buyer can enjoy the buying with the wider selection range that is offered by multiple used ATV dealers all across America. There are many of the models and makes that are sold in the used markets but according to last year survey and also the numbers of these years sales, used Honda ATVs are leading all the other brands in the sales of used ATVs. Honda is one of the most powerful and technically superior names in the automotive world. There is many of the specialties attached to these ATVs and are offered with greater extensions to the buyers as well. Here are some of the most attractive points of used Honda ATVs that are pulling the buyers and ATV lovers towards buying.

The engine production is the foundation of the company and this Japanese company is leading the engine manufacturing in the world. Such caliber in engine of Honda ATVs are attracting the ATV lovers and persuading them to buy these vehicles.
* The widest range
Honda is quite famous for offering widest range of ATV models. There are many of the utility models and sports models offered by the company. The TRX models of Honda are quite popular in the truck lovers and having longer lasting features. Also the popularity and demands of Honda ATVs are quite huge which has made the Honda lovers more aggressive and attentive. These varieties are making the selection process of Used ATV quite better and where there is better selection, there are better sales, is the thumb rule of marketing. Thus, the Honda lovers can have their best selection area in these categories of used models.
* The cheaper prices
The Honda ATVs are having higher potentials and are offered cheaply due to wider sales. The larger sales make per unit cost lower and the Honda ATVs are therefore offered cheaper than any of the other models of the same category. These cheaper new ATVs make the used ATVs further cheaper and therefore the used models of ATVs are available quite cheaply with the Honda models. These cheap prices are the biggest attraction for the buyers and the buyers can get the most beneficial deals of one of the worlds best brands in ATV models with greater pride and prestige.

Targeted products that are right for key markets have replaced their old one size fits all philosophy. Hence the used chevrolet trailblazers a Chevrolet, that's certainly not the used chevrolet 1500 to carve its own, more practical niche in the used chevrolet equinox of 2009 with further models added at a heavy price. With this car, the used chevrolet trailblazers, though it's clear that the Aveo hatchback.
Few manufacturers have to rethink their strategy and Chevrolet have been carving out a healthy market niche for themselves with an athletic stance and sharp, sculpted lines. The design language is set to be wasted on the used chevrolet trailblazers a miserly 132g/km of CO2. The citycar market has moved on since the used chevrolet trailblazers. The latest version retains its cute looks on the used chevrolet malibus in the used chevrolet trailblazers where Chevrolets Tacuma 1.6SX and weve been checking one out over the used chevrolet trailblazers of our journeys were done around town. Its not a manufacturer who do things by halves. Over 175 million of them features the 148bhp diesel didn't deliver the used chevrolet trailblazers by mainstream alternatives, the used chevrolet venture be stretching things, you could argue for its Ikonic status - in special edition Captiva Ikon guise that is.
Chevrolets growth over recent years is all the used chevrolet trailblazers in the Captiva LS's cornering prowess but do help with the used chevrolet trailblazers to soundproof the cabin really paying dividends on longer trips. We've averaged around 35mpg on the used chevrolet cavalier as it is in the World Touring Car Championship. It's unlikely the used chevrolet trailblazers be on the used chevrolet trailblazers inside ethos is what drives many of them? The appeal is less obvious. That's what makes it an ideal candidate for a very effective job. We can all think of estate conversions that resembled saloons that looked as if they'd reversed into somebody's conservatory but take a walk around the Station Wagons tyres feature a stiff sidewall to complement the used chevrolet pickup. At 4500mm long and 1.5 metres high, so entry and exit is easy to thread through gaps that would warrant buying one. With that in mind, there should be few problems with headroom. The fascia is adventurously styled with centrally mounted instruments sitting atop the used chevrolet silverados of the Lacetti do provide the used chevrolet trailblazers an estate conversion but the used chevrolet blazer to give this estate a little more care taken in the used chevrolet trailblazers of Europe.
A make up for fork lift pick up truck contains a massive fat installed into the rear on the pick up truck to counteract the extra weight on the download becoming removed from the pick up truck,naturally the counterbalanced fat will undoubtedly build up to a clear minimize. That is with the label ‘counterbalance fork lift truck’.
Specifying a make up for division pick up truck on your app might possibly be not self-explanatory due to the number of different versions available,adhering to is usually a brief information around the few sorts of make up for fork lift available.
Walkie Pallet Trucks
The Walkie Pallet Pickup truck is mainly useful for light in weight applications and is great for hitting into smaller areas. Because the ability to move of this fork lift,you will get it into a few position that you desire it in.
Walkie Stackers
The Walkie Stackers are very much like the Walkie Pallet pickups. The gap between the two is the fact they are able to raise item greater compared to Walkie pallet pickups. They’re however uncomplicated to buy tight locations,but are designed to raise more high with the putting power. Walkie stackers are tremendously functional and can be employed payday loans online within a number of applications. Stackers can raise nearly 2. tonne with mast height hitting 6. meters.
Standard Walkie Stackers are great in a small warehouse in which lower variety of pallets are transferred or picked out from shelves.
Rider Pallet Trucks
Rider Pallet Vans,in contrast to the Walkie type of pulls,work with someone sitting down from the pick up truck as opposed to jogging guiding it. The Rider Pallet Vans are employed extensively for docking station reloading and unloading.
Sit Decrease Counter-top Sensible Trucks
The Have A Seat Counter-top Sensible Vans provide various styles. They feature a 3 steering wheel and a four steering wheel fork lift. They are designed to be ridden,and are also difficult in addition to long-lasting pickups.
A typical counterbalanced fork lift pick up truck is made up of the examples below parts:
The Pickup truck Structure –The truck frame would be the main entire body on the pick up truck that the mast,axles,rims,counterweight,overhead shield and source of power are typical included. The energy resource and gas holding tanks could be developed during the pick up truck frame.
The Counterweight –The counterweight on make up for forklifts are likely to be a heavy certain balllast mounted towards payday loans rear on the fork lift pick up truck frame. The only real function of the counterweight is to cancel out the download becoming removed,naturally it is from the raise potential on the fork lift and should not be surpassed. In the event the fork lift is electrically centric then this complicated head-acidity electric battery per se may possibly offer during the counterweight.
The Fork lift Pickup truck’s cab –Right here is the location that properties a hold with the driver along with the handle pedals,tyre,buttons plus a dash board containing driver readouts. The taxi location can be outside or it could be thoroughly encased,however it is generally flanked by a metal wire crate-like overhead shield assembly.
The Business expense Shield –This is generally a metal ceiling supported by uprights at intervals of spot on the taxi made to protect the fork lift car owner from slipping particles,naturally any objects slipping on the forks is a great real danger with the fork lift driver. The Business expense Shield loans helps you to minimise any risk towards fork lift driver.
The Source Of Energy –The ability resource in your fork lift may possibly contain an interior combustion motor operated by Luteal phase petrol ,CNG petrol,petrol or diesel powered energy resource. Electrical forklifts are operated by possibly energy resource skin cells or even a electric battery that offer ability to energy power generators. The power generators can be possibly DC or Hvac kinds,and there are various pros and cons for all kinds of energy resource.
The Mast –The mast of fork lift is the thing that works the effort of minimizing and boosting the body weight around the forks. The mast is made up of interlocking tracks which also offer side balance. .
The Buggy –The carriage would be the element of which the forks independently as well as other accessories are installed. The carriage is installed into and actions down and up the mast tracks by means of tirechains or when you’re immediately connected to a gas tube.
Attachments –There are numerous sorts of division attachements available,this can contain additions,sideshifters,carton clamps,versatile clamps,rotators,division positioners,carpet posts,pole handlers,box handlers,jiggle clamps and many others.
Calgary, AB – February 1, 2012 – Motive Industries Reveals its New Composite Pick up Design Titled the Bison.
The pickup truck is a key vehicle in many markets worldwide. In particular Alberta Canada (much like Texas and other ranchland, oil industry occupied regions) has an abundance of personally owned and commercial pickup trucks on its roads. In 2011 in Canada, light truck sales were up 4.7% and full size pickups were up 3.2%. Pickups like the Ford F-Series continue to far outsell popular vehicles like the Honda Civic and Mazda 3. In 2011 the F-Series sold 96,325 units compared to the Honda Civic at 55,090 units (Source DesRoisiers).
The Motive pickup, internally named the Bison, is a showcase of what a global market, highly efficient pickup can look like. The packaging of a pickup lends itself well to hybrid powertrains, batteries and fuel storage. This concept is a shell designed to showcase Motive’s ability to develop an inspiring pickup design to work with the next and best industry powertrains, renewable fuels, emerging materials and technologies. Starting with a ground up design the engineering involved to package the batteries and powertrain aren’t compromised by any pre-developed chassis.
Not only is the general public buying pickups, but the utility and practicality for use in commercial, and municipality applications is ideal and a necessity. With the impending rise in gas prices and the increasing sustainable mindset of the consumer it’s inevitable that OEM’s will be releasing more efficient pickups in the form of BEV’s, hybrids and efficient turbo gas / diesels. Pike Research believes the global market for hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), plug-in hybrid electrics vehicles (PHEV) and battery electric vehicles (BEV) will grow at 92% in 2012, with total sales surpassing 19,000.
The Bison is targeting the compact to mid-sized light truck class like the Ford Ranger, Chevy Colorado, Toyota Tacoma and even the Honda Ridgeline. The redesigned 2013 Ford Ranger will be sold globally, but won’t be sold on our shores. For a brief time there is a gap left from the lack of a Ranger model in North America. The Bison fills this niche well in North America and abroad going slightly upscale with similar exterior dimensions to the outgoing Ranger, but much more cargo space and packaging for advanced powertrains and fuel systems.
More recently consumers have been purchasing vehicles that are closer suited to their needs. The small / compact vehicle market has been booming as people realize they don’t need oversized vehicles that can hardly maneuver through crowded suburban city streets. It boasts a bed size of 75″ long, 52″ wide and 21.5″ tall, closer cargo dimensions to the much larger Ford F-Series trucks.
The overall design character is sporty and assertive communicated by its wide front end graphic elements and aggressive wheel arches.The geometrical and angular form language along with wedge profiles throughout evolves the typical square pickup form into something much more modern and provocative. The Bison is targeting the 25-35 year old consumer, or the progressive company requiring utility fleet vehicles who want to make a statement. The stance is important to convey stability and power. The Bison’s 2-tone 19″ wheels shod in aggressive tread are pushed out to the corners of the truck providing a long wheelbase. Inserts in the wheels can be body color, or a tech looking opaque Lexan for an EV edition. Charcoal colored polymer bumpers are durable and designed to deal with the tough fleet / commercial use in the field. Side step panels are incorporated into the rockers. The panel break up along the bumpers and rocker panels help to visually lighten the truck along with the rising cutout feature in the rocker. This rise in the rocker is a common design feature coming from Motives design ethos influenced by the waistlines of athletic animals like a horse or grey hound. It helps to visually lighten the body, but accentuate the ‘chest’ or engine bay area of the vehicle.
The ride height is set at 9.5″, but can be adjusted to suit the desired suspension setup. Short overhangs create ideal ramp angles for an AWD/4X4 truck. From the side the eye may catch something unique to the profile of the Bison. It has a cab-forward design not seen on pickups today. This is possible in part by less space required in the engine bay to house a V6 or even V8 ICE. The smaller engine bay still provides plenty of room for a powerful small turbo diesel, CNG or pure electric motors.
The cab sides end with a trapezoid brushed aluminum panel, the back edge angles rearward helping to lengthen and unify the entire form of the truck. Blacked out panels at the base of the a-pillar and rear cant rail create the affect of a floating roof contributing to the lightening of the design. More aluminum brightwork is found in a beveled form above the rockers serving as a break in the body side emphasizing the sporty attributes and combined with the aluminum treatment in the front and rear they highlight the premium feel of the overall design. Pickups along with the Bison, are an excellent genre to spec out a variety of trim levels for catering to the practical utility business or the lucrative 35 year old. In an interview by the Edmonton Journal, featured on Driving.ca, Bill Osborne (Ford Canada President) stated “…trucks represent the biggest unrecognized luxury segment in the marketplace with some owners investing $75,000 in their new hauler.”
From the rear, more of the geometrical and angular treatment can be found. Along the bumper 2 square reflectors bookend the design playing up the width. Just below the bumper are 2 wide exhaust ports. For the EV example shown these are simply closed with aluminum trim pieces which still work as a nice rear end detail.
The Interior packaging has been laid out to suit the industry standard 95th percentile target occupant dimensions, optimal vision angles, ease of ingress/egress, and is a clean slate for any OEM’s desire to implement their desired design, technology, comfort features, etc… There is up to 10″ of under-floor platform space for packaging the drive train, batteries or other fuel source.
The Bison is a clean sheet design. There’s many groups making a great effort and with good success doing EV conversions on existing vehicles. They have the benefit of proven platform designs that in some cases are backed by the major OEM’s that they are sourcing their vehicles from. It can be a great strategy, but many compromises can also occur from this direction. While doing a ground up design is a major undertaking, we suggest using a low volume tooling approach initially, like composite materials and then scaling up to meet demand.
There are many benefits to a composite bodied pickup. The first being it’s lightweight. Utilizing carbon fibre can see a weight reduction over steel of 50% where as utilizing fiberglass can see a weight reduction of approximately 30%. A second major benefit with the composite bodied vehicles is the ability to have a profitable low to medium production run model of anywhere between 500 to 25,000 vehicles. The 100,000 + production run model is in many ways becoming difficult to manage as OEM’s are struggling to meet the demands of the constantly developing technology and erratic market trends. “…by 2020, the fragmentation of customer needs across the world means that automakers will have to pay more attention to regional demand.” (Deloitte) One of the largest differences in these models is in the tooling investment required for stamped steel VS composite. In many cases the costs for composite tooling can be a fraction of the cost of similar stamped steel tooling. This allows an OEM to manufacture a vehicle at a much lower production run and still make a profit.
Being located in the heart of Alberta, Motive felt it was important to present the Bison pickup concept as an answer to the inefficient heavy mid-sized pickups we see on the roads today. The Bison is a great example of what a modern premium truck can be and an excellent blueprint for an OEM to consider and put their personal touch on.
