2013 Toronto Auto Show (CIAS) – Production Cars Before we get to the pictures, just a couple of observations: Looks like in 2014 we will see the return of the Japanese luxury brand flag-ships. Infiniti Q and Acura RLX Materials and feel of the interior of the Lincolk MKZ felt just as good as their Euripean counter-parts. Looks like Ford Fusion and Dodge Dart are going to start appearing in droves on the GTA streets and thats not a bad-thing; because the ever cautious design updates for Civic are now getting painfully boring. Finally,...

I am big fan of the classic cars, but not just for the obvious reasons. Classic Cars are not only a window in the past of automotive design, but also a windows into the future of Automotive design. If anyone needs to predict, what the design language would be in 10 years time, all they need to do is ask 2 questions: What demographics will be able to buy the cars in 10 years? Kids born in the 70s? 80s? 90s? What were the halo-cars Cars the adults of their time could dream-off but never afford when these kids were growing up? Two examples of...

Lets spare the intros and get straight to the concept vehicle. There were a number of concepts at the show, but what looked like hyper-cars from Acura, Lexus and BMW stood out.

First up is the Acura NSX concept. Acura NSX...

Toronto Auto Show, well officially, Canadian International Auto Show was held in Feburary of 2012. The camera used was an awesome Canon A560. The most awesome car of the show would have to be the Hotwheels Chevrolet Camaro. Considering the defacto status of Cadillac as a “premium” brand, I do wonder if there’ real potential for Cadillac’s Urban Luxury Concept. Infiniti’s design language gets more bizarre by the day and Infiniti Etherea just adds onto that. Amongst the Imports, the most interesting was the...

Its that time of the year again; the Canadian International Auto Show, also known as the Toronto AutoShow to most folks, is back in town in this month. I figured, what better timing to pull out the ol’ dusty pictures of the AutoShow in 2010. The Toronto AutoShow was scaled back, courtesy of the near financial melt-down a couple of years earlier, it’s nevertheless the biggest Auto Show in Canada. There were still plenty of booths and displays. Unlike the previous years, this time around the entire show was held within the North...

GGears fail for a number of reasons, pick up any machine design text book and there will be a long list of failure modes listed. ISO 10825 lists a number of these failures by type and sub-types. While in systems where the gears are not enclosed, such as a bicycle, the small chip or broken teeth falls away from the gears and no further damage is done. Even in gears which are enclosed but without any cooling fluids such as those in wall-clocks the chip and debris will only collect at the bottom of the case. HHowever, things are NOT so...

Toronto Auto Show in 2003. My first trip to any AutoShow — 10 Years on, its amazing window into the past to see how many of the concepts made it to Production, how many became inspiration for production models down the years and how many fell by the way side (often for good reason … hint — > Hyundai truck concept). Yes, these are all the images a 16 Mb Compact flash card would fit. Saturn RedLine Cadillac XLR – Front...
