The English brand sells in England Vauxhall cars sold worldwide under the brand Opel (General Motors both belonging to the orbit), the only exception is the high-performance sedan VXR8, distributed exclusively in the UK and manufactured on the basis of 'Australians E3 Holden HSV GTS. Boasting a powerful V8 Corvette source, combined with rear-wheel drive, the Anglo-Saxon four-door version in 2011 it was rebuilt the trick, becoming even more aggressive and engaging and enriching at the same time its range of accessories.
Direct competitor to the likes of Audi RS6 racing cars, Jaguar XFR, Mercedes E63 AMG and BMW M5 in the future, the VXR8 2011 shows a rather striking appearance: The front is characterized by the new front grille called "Shockwave", which separates the unpublished LED daytime running lights, while the cover shows a convex shape and includes two air vents of generous proportions.
The side view is dominated by large wheels and the grays and blacks together to form tormented slots located behind the front wheel to cool the massive brakes, give the car great dynamism. The tail is distinguished by the new spoiler "Superflow" located on the rear trunk and the two drains from the hexagonal shape of air incorporated into the extractor.
The interior also betrays immediately the character of a sports car thanks to the high-containment sports seats with integrated head restraints, like the sleeves and together with the carbon-coated full leather interior. Dashboard and instruments come with a new design, while at the top of the center console are three circular instruments dedicated to the additional engine oil temperature, coolant and battery charge.
Instead they were positioned at the bottom of the controls electronically controlled dual-zone climate control. Right in the center of the dashboard we find the 5-inch touch screen multimedia system Enhanced Driver Interface (EDI), developed to calculate real-time dynamic data of the car as the strength of lateral acceleration, power and torque developed by the propeller, but also performance and lap times when using the car on the track.
In addition, through dedicated software, you can download to your PC all the data collected while driving or operating on the track, so analyzing their skills fast acceleration. Obviously the multimedia system also allows you to browse the navigation system and audio equipment including CD-Mp3, Aux connection, iPod and Bluetooth.
As we mentioned earlier the strong point of this car is the powerful 6.2 liter V8 LS3 Preest taken in the sporty Chevrolet Corvette. This engine develops 431 hp at 6000 rpm and 550 Nm of torque at 4600 rpm, download rear wheel drive with limited slip differential, with a six-speed manual transmission or an alternative to a six-speed automatic ever, with steering wheel controls.
The generous horse, run in blazing start through launch control device is able to splash the British sedan from 0 to 100 km / h in 5 seconds flat, while the maximum speed was 250 km / h. The dynamic part of the car has very high levels due to a sector characterized by a pattern of suspension coil springs for the front and an independent scheme MC-Person for the rear, coupled to the electronic equipment Magnetic Ride Control (MRC), which provides up to 1000 times per second suspension to the road conditions and input data to the vehicle by the driver.
In addition, the device - always derived from the American coupe - is supported by an ESP stability control with a different, less invasive dedicated track use, called Competition. The potential of the car made it necessary to use a braking system with front ventilated discs of 365 mm and bitten by four-piston calipers, while the rear discs are 350 mm, more bites from calipers with four pistons.
In Britain, the Vauxhall VXR8 2011 is already on sale in a network of 34 licensees, scattered throughout the country. The price of the sedan is 49,500 British pounds (about € 58,000 at current exchange rates), are fully justified from a technological and emotional offered by car.
