12 Dec 2011|5,103 views
The newly revealed Luxgen5 is the production version of the Neora EV concept study that was exhibited at the Auto Shanghai 2011 in China earlier this year. The Taiwanese automaker says it is targeting the medium-large sedan market with the new Luxgen5 that will make its world premiere at the 2012 Taipei Auto Show next April.According to Luxgen, the four-door model has been created for global markets in mind since its inception. The chassis has been designed with the support of US engineering analysts Altair, while the car was tested by UK safety organization Mira to meet the chassis configuration requirements of local and overseas markets.
Power comes from a choice of two four-cylinder petrol engines, a 1.8-litre VVT Turbo producing 150bhp and 230Nm of torque that's matched to a 5-speed automatic transmission, and a 2.0-litre VVT Turbo delivering 170bhp and 256Nm of torque, coupled to a 6-speed automatic from Aisin. The larger displacement engine allows for 0-100km/h sprint time of 8.5 seconds and a top speed of 210km/h.
Other highlights include a full suite of safety features such as ABS, EBD electronic brake-force distribution, a BAS brake assist system, an ESC electronic stability control system and a TCS traction control system, along with a 'jet fighter-style' HUD display and the LUXGEN THINK+Touch infotainment system developed in collaboration with smart-phone maker hTC that comes with a large touch-screen incorporated in the centre console.
