World Most Expensive battery operating car, Rolls Royce's Phantom 102EX
Rolls Royce enter the Electric Car category with new launched The Phantom 102EX , an electric version of the Rolls Royce’s Top-of-the-line model.
This car is powered by the world’s largest electric car battery, weighing 640 kg. It has a range of 125 miles. The batteries can be charged quickly — in about eight hours — but if you want to conserve battery life, you’ll need to take the slower route and leave the car charging for more than 20 hours.
The car’s battery is charged simply by parking the car over special pads buried in the ground. The technology, called induction charging, uses magnetic coupling instead of a regular cable at 90% energy conversion efficiency. It works like your Braun Electric Tooth Brush at home invented 22 years ago.
The Phantom 102EX will reach 60 mph in less than eight seconds with a maximum speed of 100 mph — but slower than the regular Phantom, whose V12 engine brings the car to 60 mph in 5.7 seconds.
Price? Wow, estimated to be of HKD$12,700,000.00! Not too much for a Snob, as this is the price of two 3 wrist watches…! Hmm!

Audi A8L 4.2 FSI Quattro
The A8 4.2L FSI Quattro sedan defines automotive luxury. It is what luxury is supposed to be - exclusive, innovative, a class of its own.
Review: 2011 Audi A8 4.2 FSI Quattro: The sweet smell of success.
NUTS & BOLTS: 2011 Audi A8 4.2 FSI Quattro.
Ride, acceleration and handling: Superior performance in all three.
The A8 4.2 is a full-size, front-engine, all-wheel-drive. Construction uses patented Audi Space Frame (ASF) technology, which mates aluminum with strategic applications of high-strength steel.
Engine/transmission: A 4.2-liter, 32-valve FSI ("fuel stratified injection"), gasoline engine (372 horsepower, 328 foot-pounds of torque). The engine is mated to an electronically controlled eight-speed automatic transmission.
Changes for 2011: The new Audi A8 4.2's V-8 has 22 more horsepower and three foot-pounds more torque than its predecessor. The new car's body is three inches longer and two inches wider than that of the previous model. An eight-speed automatic transmission replaces the six-speed automatic gearbox. Stylistically, the front end of the new car is markedly more aggressive than the front end of the 2010 version. Besides LED DRL, the new 10 LED as the new head Lamp adds a touch of Smart Tech elegancy.
Capacities: There are seats for five people. Luggage capacity is 13.2 cubic feet. The fuel tank holds 23.8 gallons of gasoline. Premium is required.
Mileage: The Environmental Protection Agency's estimate is 9.7L/100km.
Safety: Standard equipment includes ventilated disc brakes front and rear; anti-lock brake protection; electronic brake-force distribution; electronic stability and traction control; pre-collision safety system; post-collision safety system; and knee, side and head air bags.

World Class Automobile Manufacturing Line of Volkswagen
The world class manufacturing is entering into a new era that no one can expect a low cost running manufacturing with some primitive tool and human intensive kind of way of Shan Zhai factory model will be able produce volume product with consistent good quality. I am talking Consistent Quality goods. Let's go through a short plant tour to German Largest Automobile manufacturing Plant. The So called Factory has an outlook of a Hospital or museum of the 22nd Century. There is a special train for Visitor for touring into their plant, right at the entrance! The Outside is appealing, but inside is another story,, so amazing and advance! The line is super spacious, smooth and clean floor, no oil spillage, no hammer, saws, files, I believe you can not find any Shims! The technician is wearing smock that may looks cleaner than some doctors of certain third country, they use abundant telescopic cranes that can rotate position of the whole car in a programmed mode for ease of assembly at accuracy of certain faction of Millimeters! The crane will bring the car to the closest position distance to the part, not vice versa as we are making our cars! Highly flexibility in assembly according to you order on chassis, colour, engine type and optional accessory, as evolutional new concept as what we are thinking about Traditional way of “Volume Production Line”. Every German technician is experienced, qualified as a technician, they called themselves technicians' with name card is printed as Technician, as they had gone through numerous training and their mind set is imprinted with QUALITY Product proudly built By German… There is no more slogan on the production floor for High Yield, Good Quality as the basic Primary School training of the German has covered what “Quality” is … They do not need such Slogan.. they need to make it happened… they are looking for Commitment of their works, they are refreshed, happy, they pay good, they are being treasured as part of the Company members. Job satisfaction and Experience for improving the like to Close To perfect… every technician is perfectionist… No way for the Asian way to compare! Nor even US nor Japan. As Machine is never say tired, bored, and they are higher repeatable, high dependable, higher modifiable and they never STRIKE! Toyota was once doing very good on line automation. Now they are working on a new concept of manufacturing. Look at the VW Polo is located into the output floors Tower at Wolfsburg, like putting Lego or Match Box… hm! 5,000 visitor per week would come to see this amazing Lego assembly toys… This factory produces Volkswagen, Audi, Bentley and Lamborghini… The Morale of this message is… we need to move forward ten steps instead of one at a time for thinking of the new Manufacturing Concept… Forget the traditional way for manufacturing… Computer assisted Flexible in line is the standard… Do not say you are No.1 because you have 500,000 workers… You are having the size of USS Enterprise with 5,000 Officers and Worker… but you are giant and it may take 1 hour to make a turn… We need highly flexible destroyer equipped the state of the art hi tech weapon to ensure you are fast and invincible! We need no such large people to row the boat. We need an efficient propeller to help... I would rather day we have just two workers on the floor but we produce 1,000 times more than you are having 100, workers….We make big bucks by investing on big bucks… if you think saving money for company will be a mistake…waste of time... apply OPM, Investment on investment with PLANNED amount each year on high tech manufacturing equipment.. Low Cost manufacturing equipment will turn out jelly bean… not Rolls Royce... Think ahead for IC assembly, LED manufacturing, LED Light bulbs, smart phone assembly…even equipment manufacturing… HK Snob
