Ford has added a new feature to its marquee GPS system with the 911 Assist mode which automatically dials 911 in case of an accident. The 911 Assist mode automatically dispatches a distress call and provides emergency dispatchers an approximate on the location of the said emergency.
Mazda is all set to make a “green” return to the 24 hours of Le Mans with the Mazda RX-8 Hydrogen RE. Le Mans is adding a new highlight to its event by providing a glimpse at the future of motoring using eco-friendly means. Hence, the entry of the Mazda RX-8 seems to be perfect as it will be using a dual-fuel Renesis rotary engine where the driver can switch propulsion sources at a touch of a button.
Two hydrogen fuel tanks are installed in the trunk and are pressurized to 35 MPa, the current standard for hydrogen fueling stations. Making its debut back in 2004, this RX-8 is available for lease in Japan and Norway.
