Test Alfa Romeo Giulietta iMovie Marangoni

The G430 iMovie Marangoni Juliet is the new 2011 demo car equipped with special tires green M-iGreen Power and numerous mechanical and aesthetic details, the name is a tribute to the Ferrari 430 which takes the hard bottom of the front bumper and the shape rear of the extractor. For the rest, nothing was left to the case interior, the suspension system, engine management electronics for processing a stylistically consistent and well crafted in every detail.

The car was born from an initiative of Marangoni Tyre, an Italian tire manufacturer, introduces the new demo car for 2011. Marangoni tradition continues in this way that the protagonist of several years in the creation of original projects, we have recently seen the birth of the interesting fact in the past show cars such as Fiat 5.0.0., Alfa MiTo M430 and Nissan 370 HYDRO-Z, which attracted a good curiosity in the automotive world.

The year 2011 provides for the return to an Italian car, the work has in fact featuring the new Alfa Romeo 1750 Clover Green. The concept that inspired the project this year is the mobility in the modern world with an eye to the environment, it uses the car's tires special "M-iGreen Power", made for this car in the 235/35R19 size, but to move in the bustling cities or in pedestrian areas proposed the use of an electric scooter Segway i2 - which is housed in the trunk of the car.

The result is called Juliet G430 iMovie Marangoni this car and also for preparation of the project was provided by the design center TRC Italy. Juliet TRC Marangoni One of the colors chosen for the aesthetic was a trendy lime green, in stark contrast to the dull gray of the body of Juliet G430 iMovie Marangoni.

It 's so that the new show car, Marangoni has created the special cover, derived from the Marangoni M-Power, the new ultra high performance product that the Italian company is preparing to launch on the market. The range Marangoni M-Power is the result of significant investment in technology and research that have enabled the company to realize a Italino a sporty, high performance, progressive, designed to offer maximum driving pleasure and the highest levels security.

In this experimental version and colorful, the M-Power M-Power iGreen become, thanks to the use of compounds with a high silica content and innovative materials to reduce the maximum rolling resistance and therefore in equal proportion and pace, and section Tyre, the consumption of fuel.

Upon completion of a project that has a soul as ever Made in Italy, is the cabin of the car, made dall'italianissimo clothing brand Conte of Florence, with the same color inside green tire iGreen Power-M, which give all 'mood a modern car, sporty and elegant at the same time. Interior The interior has been designed and built through a partnership with the company Florence Conte of Florence already the market leader in luxury sportswear.

In the study of the interior, besides the use of precious materials such as leather, Alcantara and carbon, Conte of Florence has identified the leitmotif in quilting as a bond to the tradition of Scottish golf. In addition, the embroidered logo of generous proportions reminiscent of the Tour Line logo, worn with pride by the spokesperson of the brand in official races.

The gray and green take over one of the themes of the autumn winter 2010-11. Bodywork and design will not be hard to understand the derivation of the design given to Juliet G430 iMovie Marangoni, as the name itself shows the source of inspiration. The front bumper has two large air intakes with an outflow directed to the brake system is now much more powerful.

Regarding the latter, the original speaker was removed and replaced with new parts made of carbon, which has always showy style air extractors F430. Flowing skirts always close the carbon body kit of the car, fully linking the two axes. The wing on the back window was slightly elevated to increase the toughness.

The body and the body have been completely repainted by using a special charcoal gray very fine grained which was passed on the lens 100% opaque. Power Kit The engine can now count on a power of 286cv, 51cv far more than the original version, with a powerful delivery up from low revs. The power kit provides for the adoption of a new turbine that works on roller bearings with ceramic inner tracks the ratio A / R is greater than the unit standard as well as air flow, then this is a down pipe with catalytic converter built-in metal and stainless steel complete exhaust Ragazzon, unloading is obviously larger diameter to reduce the back pressure downstream of the turbine.

The air intake was modified using a specific carbon air box. The equipment Juliet G430 iMovie Marangoni has been lowered by about 4cm by adopting an attitude to KW threaded which allows the adjustment and calibration with compression and rebound damping. The already powerful standard braking system has been replaced with pliers innovative B360 Tarox discs and 10-piston braking surfaces of composites with diameter 360 × 26 for a total braking power and modulated at the same time.

The acid green tires Marangoni M-iGreen Power, to the extent 235/35R19 Y, obtained by adding the compound special fluorescent pigments, mounted on wheels Barracuda model Karizzma 8.5 × 19. The result is a fascinating black-green combination that gives even more sportiness to the Giulietta G430 iMovie Marangoni.

All components designed for iMovie Marangoni Juliet G430 will be marketed in 2011 by the Florentine TRC Italy. After trying to drive the Nissan 370Z in 2010 were very curious to test this new show dear. During the first approach we try to get in tune with the car and the main test directionality in response to the steering wheel placement and trasferiemnti cornering load, you immediately notice a small roll (even forcing the entry speed during cornering) and it is very powerful and modular braking, thanks to a well-balanced attitude that while sports (-4cm from the original) not to exceed an excessive rigidity.

The braking system Tar-Ox-piston calipers from as many as 10 strikes a little fear at first mainly road use, except change his mind quickly when you start to use the pedal with the decision, the decelerating force is never too aggressive while maintaining a reserve power and high stability even under intensive use of the pedal on the track.

Meanwhile, the temperatures have reached the optimal values and begin to increase the pace with the full power of the engine. The progression of the car is quite surprising, especially if the pressure is related with the displacement of just 1750cc, more than 280Cv engine can be felt, especially after the 3000 revolutions with a pleasant extension to the threshold of 7,000 rpm.

The sound mixed with the intake of the turbine can be heard in the cockpit and offers intriguing soundtrack in sporty driving. Traction is good in tight turns and even the Grand Chamber of Marangoni can download the great power to the ground while showing a little slip in the lower gears.

Driving fast on the car is behaving much like a rally car in reaction to the steering wheel and steering precision, the structure is rigid but not too much and is especially well coupled to the chassis base of Juliet. In the car quickly closes entry trajectory, with the weight balance and a large section of the wheels, understeer power remains limited to less than overdo it with the steering in tight corners.

In the quick changes of direction is consistent also with the behavior of well-glued back on the ground that it makes the car easier and safer. A Segway in the trunk inside the trunk of Juliet iMovie Marangoni G430 was added to a Segway i2 personal with the colors of the car. The small electric vehicle movement is patented and marketed by Segway Inc.

with the goal of developing innovative solutions for transportation, based on a technology "dynamic stabilization" that combine high efficiency and zero emissions. The instrument has LeanSteer technology, engineering innovation that makes the Segway i2 even more intuitive, attractive and easy to use, making sure that all machine movements are controlled by the direction the rider moves his body.

The Segway i2 has a top speed of 20km/he one charge lithium-ion battery is able to travel for 38 km. The guide is easy and everything is controlled by the movements of the body by pushing the chest forward the Segway goes forward by moving your weight back to brake and then goes in reverse, is to turn a knob on the handlebars (which remains fixed) but by turning the knob to the right or the left controls the direction of the Segway, it takes little time to tune into the electric vehicle that turns out to be practical and useful especially in large urban areas or in areas with limited traffic.
