Rolls Royce EX200 (RR4) about to surface
Tue, 10 Feb 2009There’s been a whole heap of shots of the new baby Rolls, the RR4 as it’s known internally, and we featured some last month. To add to the mix, we’ve also grabbed an interior shot of the new Rolls, which we reckon will be known as the Rolls Royce Ghost or the Rolls Royce Silver Ghost. But news has now arrived that Rolls Royce is actually planning on revealing the EX200 concept car at Geneva, which is pretty much what the new Rolls will be.
Bentley uses 3D printing to prototype new designs [w/Video]
Tue, 17 Sep 20133D printing is changing the way the world makes things by helping people of all disciplines to enhance and refine their ideas cheaply, quickly and effectively. Bentley is the latest carmaker to utilize the technology to fabricate and prototype different parts to see how they'll look and work on the finished design. Using 3D printers, designers can produce parts from the exterior and interior such as the grille, tires, headlamps and door handles as well as combine different types of contrasting materials, ranging from hard plastics to rubbers of different tensile strengths. The technology allows the user to create a solid 3D object straight from a digital model by printing layers of material on top of each other. This process rapidly decreases the delivery time, as parts can be printed overnight, and allows designers to be more creative in their ideas because of the reduced cost. Bentley isn't the first carmaker to use 3D printing technology. Audi announced last year it was beginning to prototype vehicle parts using 3D printers.
Drivers tend to have higher BMI says report
Wed, 20 Aug 2014PEOPLE could lose up to half a stone if they did not drive to work and used public transport or actively commuted instead, research suggests. Experts have found that people who get the bus or train and those who walk or cycle into the office weigh less than those who get to work in private vehicles. The new study, published on thebmj.com, examined more than 15,000 commuters' body mass index (BMI) scores.
