Nissan Rogue

-


The Nissan Rogue is a compact crossover SUV that debuted in October 2007[1] for the 2008 model year, produced by the Japanese automaker Nissan. It is the North American version of the Nissan X-Trail in Japan.
The Nissan Rogue made its debut at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit on January 7, 2007. It replaces the Nissan X-Trail in Canada as Nissan's entry-level SUV and the body-on-frame Nissan Xterra in Mexico due to the Smyrna plant freeing capacity for the 2009 Suzuki Equator, but the Xterra continued on sale in the United States and Canada through 2015 after being withdrawn from the Mexican market after the 2008 model year. All-new versions of the X-Trail and Rogue were launched in 2013 on a shared platform.
The Rogue is powered by a 170 hp (127 kW; 172 PS), 2.5 L four-cylinder QR25DE engine mated to a standard continuously variable transmission,[2] and comes standard with front-wheel-drive. The Rogue costs less than Nissan's Murano crossover SUV, but at 105.8 cu ft (3.00 m3) vs. 108.1 cu ft (3.06 m3)[3] offers only slightly less passenger volume than its V6-powered sibling, and a nearly equal cargo area of 39.3 cu ft (1,110 L) vs. 39.6 cu ft (1,120 L).
In 2014, the Rogue received the distinction of being the first automobile to be manufactured in South Korea for a Japanese automaker and sold under a Japanese brand, thanks to the Renault–Nissan Alliance, in which the Rogue is built by Renault Samsung Motors in Busan. Renault Samsung Motors originally was a technology partner of Nissan upon its establishment in 1994 as Samsung Motors, and Renault, who has owned a controlling stake in Nissan since 1999, acquired a controlling stake in Samsung Motors in 2000, becoming Renault Samsung Motors.[4]
After the 2013 model year, Nissan also produced a model of the Rogue called the Rogue Select. A continuation of the first generation Rogue. This model was produced from 2013-2015

The  Aptera 2 Series  (formerly the Aptera Typ-1) was a high-efficiency passenger  three-wheeled automobile  under development by  Aptera Motors . The California-based company opened a pre-ordering process for residents of California, but stopped taking deposits in July 2011, and on August 12, 2011, Aptera announced it would return all deposits from customers who had signed up to buy an Aptera 2e electric car or the planned 2h hybrid, [3]  before the company finally folded in December 2011. The first variant of the 2 Series slated for production was the Aptera 2e (formerly Typ-1e), a  battery electric vehicle . [4]  Aptera claimed the 2e would accelerate from 0 to 60 mph (0 to 97 km/h) in less than 10 seconds, and be capable of reaching a top speed of over 85 mph (137 km/h).

The  Ford F-Series  is a series of  light-duty trucks  and medium-duty trucks (Class 2-7) that have been marketed and manufactured by  Ford Motor Company  since 1948. While most variants of the F-Series trucks are  full-size pickup trucks , the F-Series also includes  chassis cab  trucks and  commercial vehicles . The Ford F-Series has been the  best-selling vehicle in the United States  since 1981 and the best-selling pickup since 1977. [1] [2]  It is also the best selling vehicle in Canada. [3] In 1999, to bridge the gap between the pickup line and the medium-duty trucks, the F-250 and F-350 became the  Ford Super Duty  vehicles; considered an expansion of the F-Series, the Super Duty trucks are built on a distinct chassis with heavier-duty components. As of the 2017 model year, the F-Series includes the F-150, the Super Duty (F-250 through F-550), and  F-650 and F-750 Super Duty  medium-duty commercial trucks.

Lordstown Motors appears to be shifting chairs on the deck of the Titanic. The electric truck startup kept a scheduled media event one day after CEO Steve Burns and chief financial officer Julio Rodriguez resigned after an investigation by the company’s board. The virtual meeting with the Automotive Press Association out of Detroit started with a statement by Angela Strand, the lead independent director who has been appointed executive chairman. Lordstown is committed to transparency and plans to start limited production in late September, with no disruptions in day-to-day operations envisioned, Strand says. Then president Rich Schmidt and chief engineer Darren Post proceeded with an upbeat presentation about the virtues of the Lordstown Endurance electric pickup, which the company says is sold out through 2022. And they showed the plant with robots and conveyor belts in full motion as the former General Motors factory continues its retooling in preparation for the fall launch. Who
