This process would require a lot of hard work and you have to work consistently. After you establish your own business website, you will have to attract the target audience to enter your site. Therefore, you have to find the ways to direct them to your website. These visitors would be regarded as traffic.

In order to get traffic, you can employ many ways. Some ways would bring you a large amount of traffic but the business owners would still say that the sales volume do not increase much. This can happen because the traffic is not the targeted traffic. A man who does not have a car would sometimes be directed to a website selling car carpets but he would never purchase one because the products is of no use to him.

Therefore, you have to find the suitable ways to get the targeted traffic. If you think that you are lazy and you do not want to work all the time to stay with the computer, you can think of using some automatic programs. However, you should be prepared that these programs may not work well.

These programs may do a lot of silly things which would make the search engine dislike your site and this would be something disastrous. It is because when they blacklist your site your site would not appear in the results page of the search engine and it would be a lot more difficult for you to get the attention of your potential customers.

If you want to work on your own, you can try to submit articles regularly to your website and make your website interesting. There will be a lot of professional article writers to write for you and you do not need to worry about that. You can pay them to write plenty of interesting and professional articles and you will win the attention from your clients.

There are a lot more ways that you can do to boost traffic. One of the simplest ways is to use some tools to do the marketing work for you. Among all the various tools, Rapid Mass Traffic is more reliable. You can get access to the program after paying a certain amount of money. Yes, up till now you may question why you should pay for a tool while there are free tools out there. Well, free tools may not be good enough.

There may be a lot of keywords dumped into the content of the articles in the website and it will make the search engine blacklist the site.

Rapid Mass Traffic can provide a guarantee of money-back for 8 weeks after purchase. Therefore, you do not need to worry much about the effectiveness of the program and you will not waste money if you find that the program does not work.

Toolbars as they are named, provides us with invaluable help with the set of tools that they come with. But most of the time, the toolbars are from any software developer or online service provider. They serve some purpose but have a little bit of self promotion involved. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could possibly create our own toolbar with tools that we prefer to use. This article will help you create your own toolbar which is compatible with Firefox & Internet Explorer.

4. Press “Save” at the bottom to save all the changes that you have just made.

On step 1, select any RSS icon of your choice. Then skip the 2nd step and press the “Add an RSS Feed” button in step 3.

Under “Social And Messages” section you can find these two most used utilities.

The search field in the toolbar is set to Google by default, you can define it by configuring the search widget. Among other tools that are mostly used, radio player, TV and games can also be installed in the toolbar.

Toolbar Components For Web Masters

The toolbar has endless possibilities and it is really useful for oneself to promote his/her blog or website. For experienced developers, you can even add XML links, custom defined HTML components and Java scripts with the Conduits API. The best part is that you get paid for every installation. Isn’t that like hitting two birds with one stone ?

Make Tech Easier Toolbar

I have prepared one such toolbar for all MTE readers, which can be downloaded from MTE Toolbar Page.
In conclusion, regardless whether you are a blog owner or just a casual web surfer, Conduit toolbar is an useful tool that can be used by anyone to improve their productivity.

Mobile Number Portability Complaints TRAI to intervene

After crossing different deadlines Mobile Number Portability came into a reality on 20 Jan 2011 across all Telecom circles of India. Statistics says around 17 Lakh customers have availed this facility since the launch. Customers are facing several problems in connection with MNP. Service providers are deliberately delaying the porting requests and rejecting the applications. Here some reported issues with MNP.

 

 

1. Problems in getting Unique Porting Code: This is the preliminary requirement for MNP. When a customer send porting request SMS in prescribed format to 1900, the UPC to be delivered immediately as reply SMS from 1901, it’s an automatic process. Unfortunately people often are getting this type of messages “Sorry customer please try after some time”, ” Your request is invalid”, “Dear customer please wait for some time”, “Your request can not be processed”, “Try to contact customer care ” etc.

2. Applications not getting processed: As per the guidelines the whole porting process should be completed within four days on receipt of application . It has been observed that the loosing operators are deliberately delaying the application and not even responding to the queries.

3. Rejection of porting request : Mobile operators are quoting ridiculous reasons for rejecting the applications such as ” You are in a special plan so porting is not possible”, ” You are using life time validity plan so porting request cannot be processed” . As per the guidelines these are not the valid reasons to reject an application.

4. Problems with post paid customers : Even after clearing all outstanding bills the porting requests of customers are not getting processed.

5. Downtime more than 2 hours : This happened with me also. I got an SMS about the porting time ” Your Port in request for Mobile number xxxxxxxxx has been accepted and your mobile number will be ported on 09 Feb 2011 at 00:53 AM “ Now the time is 0800, 09 Feb 11. Number is blocked and not able do outgoing/ incoming calls

 

TRAI is monitoring the whole MNP process and attending complaints. They warned the service providers against deliberate delays and non complains of regulations. Let’s consider these glitches as the teething problems and hope the authorities will take strict actions against defaulters.

An experiment with Alexa rank from the Land of Thunder Dragons

Do a Google search “How important is Alexa rank”. Almost every article reach in a conclusion -It is “ inaccurate and Alexa traffic can be greatly influenced ”. Yes, I too believe in this, but then also we care Alexa why? Something to be there to set the targets or can be taken as a competitive comparison tool. As an Amazon product Alexa is the most popular one among webmasters especially in Asian countries.

 

I got an opportunity to analyze Alexa from a country where internet penetration is very low. Presently I am here in Bhutan (A land locked small beautiful Asian country) for a short stay. As per the statistics report of Infocom and Media authority- Roayal Govt of Bhutan, as on 2010 there are only 6,100 broadband connections in Bhutan. As a webmaster, it’s my habit to check the Alexa and Pagerank of a site while browsing. After a couple of months stay here, I noticed an interesting fact- The sites I visit regularly getting good Alexa rank in Bhutan that is somewhat less than 100 !. I doubted is it possible? – Then I started some experiments. Visited some least popular sites regularly- the results were amazing; the sites got very good rank in Bhutan. Alexa rank of Techlineinfo in Bhutan is 17 – It was 9 before a couple of weeks. The drop was also due to an experiment. I removed the Alexa widget from the site for few days to check the impact.

The most popular Blogger of Kerala (India) , Berly Thomas (berlytharangal.com) wondered about his two digit Alexa rank in Bhutan through an article.

Here you can see the Alexa rank statistics of some sites I visit regularly (Not the complete list).

 

This confirmed that Alexa is monitoring the traffic through their toolbar only. Hard to believe? Within few weeks I can bring down your site’s Alexa Rank in Bhutan to a figure- less than 100!
We know Alexa is not important then why to care?

1. Setting some targets are always important for successful blogging. It is very much easy to get good Alexa ranking in the countries where internet penetration is very poor, but to get an overall rank less than 100 K is not an easy task. For that you have to work hard.
2. It has been observed that a lot of advertisers prefer to place ads in the web sites with good Alexa rank. Hence if you really want some bucks through advertisement, then you have to improve your Alexa rank
3. Blog directories- Most of the blog directories are using Alexa rank as an index for comparison.
4. If you have an Alexa rank less than 100 K, it will give some interesting graphical information about your site to analyze.

How to switch back to your old Yahoo mail classic interface

If you’re fed up or did not like the new Yahoo mail interface for some reason either it is low speed connection or you would better like to be in the older Yahoo mail classic version than this post is for you. You will not find any option in their new interface to switch back to your classic Yahoo mail. But don’t think there is no available option, you will find it below.

 

 

Newest versions of Gmail, Yahoo do not work properly in older web browsers. And Yahoo mail new version will never load up on your Internet Explorer 6. This is the tool that we are going to use to get back your old Yahoo mail classic version. You have to run IE6 in your computer and then you will need need no more steps for reverting back. But that seems odd going back to Internet Explorer 6 for the cause of just running Yahoo mail classic version.

 

So for this cause, there is a plug-in called user agent Switcher. This plug-in makes Yahoo mail recognise your browser as whatever version that you wish to. You can plug-in to send information to websites that collect browser version information to provide you personalised experience. It is as an easy usable plug-in where you can select the version you need from the options.

Just install user agent Switcher plug-in for Firefox ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-switcher/ ). Set the version as Internet Explorer 6 and then visit Yahoo mail.

Yahoo mail will take you to a screen that this version IE6 is not supported and will ask you to upgrade your browser to Firefox, Safari, or Internet Explorer 9. But you may not do any of them and just use the link that is provided in the browser to view Yahoo mails classic version.

 

 

Now the best part of this method is that you need not switch to IE6 each time you login to Yahoo mail. It will be saved in your preferences as default on the website and whenever you visit it you will get to see the classic version. There will be also a link to upgrade to the latest.

Should you drop Facebook for Google plus

As you all know Google has introduced its famous Google plus social network two weeks before. Google+ has created a bang on the internet and pushed back most of the previous social networks. But now Facebook one of the toughest competitor of Google is struggling to retain its users. The 500 million population of Facebook is decreasing day by day. But do you think Google plus is so valuable so that you leave Facebook and flat and flood towards it?

 

Bloggers have already started supporting Google+ because they have no other way than going behind Google’s project. Only if they go behind Google they will be able to earn a residual income. Most of the bloggers rely only on Google AdSense and Google search results for their monthly income. So if they don’t adopt to Google plus they will lose it. Google has already stated the plus one metrics will affect the search results.last year when Google started using social networks for ranking trending topics I guessed sooner or later there will be a social network released by Google but I never expected that it will affect search rankings so badly as if they are indicated at present.

 

I have already found a lot of people selling Google plus one service on forums and websites stating they are going to be the factors determining your search engine rankings, so as for bloggers I don’t think we have another option than promoting Google plus in our blogs.But now the question is will Facebook like still be considered as a factor for ranking trending topics.

 

For general social users, Google plus is only at its start-up stage and you need not flood towords it leaving your Facebook account.That being said I don’t wish to stop you if you have the desire to check out Google plus. You can even get a Google plus invitation from me by just posting a comment below.Google plus does has its advantages over Facebook. Even though it is at its start up it has developed lot of applications for entertaining its users. The topmost application developed by that Google plus team is that they have created an application for using Facebook inside Google called Google+ Facebook.It is an awesome application which allows you to use all the Facebook features inside Google plus. This has been a killer for Facebook and has lead to a great population of Facebook users moving to words Google plus.I have previously written a post on how to integrate Facebook with Google plus.

 

I started this article but still I am in a confusion which network will be the best when considered in a long term. So I will continue to use both Facebook and Google plus. The number one and number two of the Internet are having a hard time between them and let us expect it will cool down very soon.

But there is always a fear in all successful people who make money online, it is how reliable is his/her method to make money online and how long will he be able to sustain or improve this income working online.

 

 

I have a few points supporting why blogging is the best and most reliable way to make money online against other Internet marketing, outsourcing,mlm, online services,CPA or any other method you keep secret for yourself to make money online. I assume you would agree to the below points, but I am always open for any kind of feedback.
I am a person who has tried out all the methods online. I started with online surveys, paid to view ads and few other scams and then stepped into blogging,CPA,Online services,Product creation and Affiliate Marketing. I have pretty good experience in all the methods and only after involving in all of them for atleast 6 months each I can bet you that blogging is the most reliable way for online income.

1. I have blogs which I created in 2007 which are left unmonitored, they still earn me a decent figures each month.
2. I can blog whenever I feel like doing so. I don’t have any conditions that I have to write a post everyday and the revenue don’t go to the ground for at least a few months. But if you are into a CPA network, online service you will have to monitor it every day to make sure you sustain your earnings.
3. Whenever you add content to your blog, you are adding to its value. Your blog is your valuable online property which pays back for whatever work you put in to it.
4. You don’t need to satisfy anyone by blogging. You post your own ideas and accept both positive and negative feedback. But in other methods you will have to satisfy your client, Answer all his questions and after all that he may not be satisfied. Dealing with CPA networks will also cause you the same problem of satisfying your affiliate managers. You should be afraid and be cautious of the terms and conditions or a instant ban.
5. Your blog is your brand. No other online income method will make you famous giving you enough revenue at the same time.
6. There are countless monetization methods. You can use all other methods CPA,Affiliate networks,Services to monetize your blog.
7. Anyone can run a blog. You don’t require too many skills to run a successful blog. You can just follow the paths of another successful blogger and still be successful. But in other methods you will need to experience hard times and struggle to make your first $ online. Further, not much information is available to learn other income methods. Even if they are available, the creators censor all the secrets for themselves and let you know only the basics.
8. Your blog can be sold for six times its revenue. I don’t mean that you have to sell it, but it’s a great feeling to know you are secured and has a property that’s valuable.
9. You can easily expand blogging to the next level. Multi-Author blogging is now more common. You can add any number of authors to blog and it grows even more faster.
10. You can predict/guess your revenue that you’ll make a few months later. And you will also able to see your earnings increasing regularly day by day as long as you spend time for your blog. Can anyone in another online business be so sure that his earnings will continue to increase since he puts in effort every day? No, they know they have to put in a lot of work to increase their revenue, but they cannot be sure about the returns even after huge investment and hours of work.

2012 BMW 328i Sport vs. 2013 Cadillac ATS 2.0 Turbo

The BMW 3 Series isn't just a car. As my cohort Jonny Lieberman likes to say, the 3 Series is a segment. Now, this isn't an attempt to stoke BMW's ego, or, as many of our readers would assume, bias towards the Bavarian brand. It's just the simple truth: When an automaker chooses to compete in the luxury sports sedan segment, it's benchmarking the 3 Series. No BMW has consistently won Motor Trend comparison tests like the 3 Series has, and for good reason. The 3 Series has come to define BMW's Ultimate Driving Machine mantra and embodies the purest qualities BMW stands for as a brand.Back in May, we hosted a sport sedan shoot-out and invited eight four-door sportboxes to duke it out. Everyone from Audi to Volvo came to play, and in the end, we said (and I quote), "This is not just a win for the 328i -- it's a massacre. ... there is no competition." Well, that was then. And then was before Cadillac had brought its new ATS to market.

Of course, Cadillac smartly realizes BMW rules the 3 Series segment, and looking over the spec sheet for the ATS, it's clear Cadillac engineers used BMW specs as they would a recipe for their grandmother's lasagna. The exterior dimensions -- length, width, and height -- are all within an inch of the 328i and the difference in curb weight is just 24 pounds (the heavier BMW has a sunroof while the ATS does not). The engine is 2.0 liters and turbocharged, just like the 328i. Output is also nearly identical, as you might expect by now: 272 hp for the ATS, 240 for the (cough, cough) underrated (cough, cough) BMW with 260 and 255 lb-ft of torque, respectively. Both cars are available with automatic gearboxes, but the Caddy gets six cogs to the BMW's eight. This being a sport sedan comparison, we decided on six-speed manuals for both cars. Wheels on both cars are 18 inches and suspension is strut front, multi-link rear on each, with anti-roll bars at both ends. Heck, even the base price of each car is an identical $35,795 with destination fees factored in.

But let's turn our attention from spec sheets to sheetmetal. For 2013, the BMW gets a subtle redesign. All that "evolutionary, not revolutionary" stuff you've been reading about the 328i is true -- BMW isn't messing too much with what works. The Bimmer's lines are taut and the stance is aggressive, with 18-inch wheels filling out the fenderwells on our Sport model. It looks lean and toned and every inch a BMW. Meanwhile, there's no doubt the ATS' sheetmetal is influenced by the CTS, but the overall design is more than a four-fifths scale take on Big Brother. We love the swoopy, Mercedes-esque beltline and the chiseled front end. Caddy didn't go overboard on the flash, keeping chrome trim subtle, and the illuminated door handle inserts and vertical headlights that sweep up the hoodline are lovely touches.

Inside, the two cars couldn't be more different. BMW sticks with an understated black interior, spiced up only with a red trim strip across the dash and red stitching on the leather seats and steering wheel. The dash is all soft-touch grained material of reasonable quality, but the matte black rubberized buttons and switchgear look a bit cheap for a car that can easily be optioned to more than $50k. Nevertheless, the latest version of iDrive works intuitively and quickly, with a well-integrated voice command system. The ATS interior is a little more flashy, with a good-looking leather-topped dash and a stylized piano black center stack that unfortunately picks up smudges and fingerprints like mad. Cadillac's CUE interface, while not on the same level as the continually refined iDrive, works well enough with some advanced touches including a proximity sensor that hides cluttering functions until a hand moves within inches of the touch screen. Buttons on the center stack incorporate haptic feedback for more positive response.

Both cars are designed to carry four adults, and while each car's front seats are reasonably comfortable, those in the Cadillac are a bit too firm -- something we've noted previously in the CTS. The rear seat advantage also goes to BMW, which offers a touch more legroom and a slightly more comfortable bench. There is similar wheel well intrusion in each car's trunk and both offer average capacity.

At the dragstrip, the 328i pips the ATS by a full half-second to 60 mph, but that gap lessens to just 0.3 seconds through the quarter-mile, with runs of 14.1 and 14.4 sec, respectively. If you look at the charts for our two competitors, you'll see the cars are dead-nuts even to 15 and 30 mph, so why the big gap by 60 mph? Most of it has to do with the ATS' shorter gearing, which requires a second shift to get to the big six-oh. Around our figure-eight track, the race tightens. In fact, our cars managed identical 26.3-second laps -- a pretty amazing thing. Pure skidpad numbers give a 0.01 g advantage to the ATS and its wider rear rubber, and the Caddy also takes top braking honors, with a 108-foot stop from 60 to 0 mph, where the BMW required 113.

Too close to call? Not so fast. Though dimensions and performance specs may be nearly identical between our two sports sedans, there are marked differences in the way each car drives. Traditionally, one of the 3 Series' highlights has been its sharp, balanced handling and less compromised attitude. Ironically, it's here that the BMW is let down. We wouldn't call the 328i a poor-handling car by any stretch of the imagination, quite the contrary. Toss the BMW into a sharp turn, and mild initial understeer dissolves quickly to beautifully neutral behavior. A stab of the throttle will goad the rear into hanging out ever so slightly, but with utter control. The ride quality remains relatively supple; the downside is that the BMW has a slightly rubber sensation in relation to the ATS. Every input seems to be damped slightly; every corner entry just a hair slower; every sensation just that much more muted.

Take the same turn in the ATS and initial understeer is more abrupt, with more marked transitions to neutral, then slight oversteer under throttle provocation. But the inputs are sharper and the response is quicker. The steering has a directness that reminds us of the E46 3 Series, not the current car. We mean that in a good way. More than that, the chassis feels more responsive, firmer, tauter. The Caddy's engine feels punchier mid-range, and while the engine note isn't what you'd call melodic, it's a little louder and rawer. If the BMW is the Beatles, the Cadillac is the Rolling Stones. There's that much more aggression and drive to the ATS; that uncompromised driving experience that sadly no longer exists in the 3 Series. Drive the Bimmer without driving the Caddy and you may not even notice, but driven back to back, the difference is marked.

That's why the ATS' faults are so frustrating. We may have gotten a car with a defect, but the six-speed manual gearbox in our tester was hugely disappointing. Shifts were notchy and imprecise, with several testers continuing to miss gears even as hours in the car piled up. The transmission in the 328i is no sweetheart, but despite its rubbery feel, it didn't cause us to lose our concentration with botched gear changes.The Caddy's suspension also needs some recalibration. The magnetic ride shocks have the potential to be brilliant, as we've seen in other GM products, but here they're tuned a tad too aggressively. There are two modes -- Normal and Sport -- and the latter is simply too firm to be used on any public road. We're also concerned about the damping rates in Normal mode, as there was some heavy and frankly unsettling up/down movement under certain conditions. We could pinpoint sections of road where this happened, but we couldn't quite explain why, given that the road surface was quite smooth. Simply put, it felt like the rebound rate may be too high, resulting in a somewhat violent bobbing motion.Those two faults are so significant in the driving experience that the BMW hangs on to win this comparison by the skin of its teeth and keep its segment crown. That said, we suspect GM will be doing what it can to remedy these issues post-haste. When it does, look out, BMW.

2014 Mazda6

The toughest gig in town? If you're a mainstream automaker, it's the midsize sedan segment, now the absolute heartland of the American new car market. Last year's Motor Trend Car of the Year set benchmarks for ride, handling, interior package, and powertrain in the segment. The Camry sales juggernaut just keeps on rolling, a testament to Toyota's massive marketing muscle and consumer inertia, and the Hyundai Sonata has everyone worried about the growing reach of the Koreans. And just to make things even more interesting, in the past few months alone, Chevy launched a new Malibu, Honda a new Accord, Nissan a new Altima, and Ford a new Fusion. If you're thinking of crashing this party, you'd better bring your A-game.Enter the 2014 Mazda6
.

Mazda is a car company in transition. For more than 30 years, it operated in partnership with Ford Motor Company, which at one time owned a third of the Hiroshima-based automaker. Ford's involvement was a blessing and a curse: It gave relatively small Mazda a big brother it could lean on for everything from R&D to vehicle architectures to manufacturing plants, though it also meant Mazda had to conform to Dearborn's view of the automotive universe. No longer. Since 2010, Mazda has been free to pursue its own destiny. But as a company that last year sold about 1.3 million vehicles worldwide, that freedom has necessarily been tempered by the need to watch the pennies. Put simply, Mazda can't afford to screw up.Yep, there's a lot riding on the all-new Mazda6. This is perhaps the single most important new vehicle Mazda will launch this side of the next-gen Miata, the company's touchstone car. The good news is that, at first blush, Mazda looks to have got a lot right with the new 6. In terms of the current crop of mid-size sedans swarming like frenzied piranha around the American consumer, it looks to be an A-game car.

The new Mazda6 is the second car designed from the wheels up to make the most of Mazda's Skyactiv suite of fuel-saving technologies. It shares engines, transmissions, and even some structural elements - the front and rear subframes, for example - with the CX5, which was the first completely new Mazda the company launched since the 1967 Cosmo Sport. Among the changes made to CX5-shared hardware are a revised front strut layout to improve steering smoothness, revised brake booster characteristics for better initial pedal feel, and a reprofiled steering knuckle neck to reduce road noise.Built in Japan at Mazda's Hofu plant, the 2014 Mazda6 comes in two bodystyles -- sedan and wagon -- with a choice of five different four-cylinder engine variants -- a 2.0-liter gas and 2.2-liter turbodiesel, each available in high or low power tune, and a 2.5-liter gas model -- plus the choice of six-speed manual and automatic transmissions. U.S. buyers won't have to spend a lot of time deciding which Mazda6 they want when the car goes on sale in January. The sedan with the top-of-the-range 189-hp, 2.5-liter direct-injection Skyactiv-G engine mated to the six-speed automatic transmission is, for now, the only model headed stateside, though Mazda USA officials won't rule out considering additional variants. Simple market dynamics suggest they have to: All the other key players in the segment offer a number of engine and transmission variants.

The Mazda6 projects a commanding presence on the road; unlike, say, Ford's new Fusion, it doesn't look smaller than it really is. Styled under the direction of Akira Tamatani, the man responsible for the Takeri concept sedan unveiled at the 2011 Tokyo Show, the new Mazda6 boasts a unique "cab-rear" proportion that makes it look more like a rear-drive car. Extend a line from the point where the A-pillar meets the front fender on most front-drive cars, and it will invariably run through the front axle centerline. On the Mazda6, however, the A-pillar touchdown point has been moved rearwards almost four inches compared with the outgoing model, visually moving the front wheels forward compared with the greenhouse. With a typical Japanese anime flourish, Tamatani-san says it makes the Mazda6 look like "a wild animal ready to leap forward at any second." We wouldn't go that far, but it is certainly a handsome, athletic-looking car.

Curiously, the Mazda6 is the only midsize car in the world where the wagon version is built on a shorter wheelbase -- 80mm shorter, to be precise -- than the sedan. The reason, says Mazda6 program manager Hiroshi Kajiyama, is the four-door has been optimized for the U.S. and China, where consumers prefer their midsize sedans on the larger side, while the rakish wagon is aimed at European buyers, who have developed a fondness for sporty load-haulers. The sedan's wheelbase is a generous 111.4 inches and overall length is 191.5 inches, making the Mazda6 one of larger cars in the class. That long wheelbase, coupled the 72.4-inch overall width, make for a decent cabin with good rear seat accommodation for adult passengers. Moving the cabin back from the front wheels also means the front wheel housings are less intrusive, allowing Mazda to push the pedals outwards and more in line with the driver's body.There's a lot of black plastic inside the Mazda6 -- you can have any interior color you want as long as it's black, or black with off-white seat facings and door trim patches -- but it's well-executed and devoid of any gratuitous design gimmickry. The center stack features simple rotary dials for the HVAC, and a 5.8-inch nav screen sits in a nicely scalloped recess adjacent to the simple three-dial instrument cluster, the right-hand dial of which is a 3.5-inch multi-function display. An MMI-style rotary dial and menu button cluster on the center console control all the nav-screen functions. Only little telltales like the warm-to-the-touch aluminum accents (which means they're actually plastic) and the cheap-looking graphics on the display screens (the nav system is TomTom-based and looks vaguely aftermarket, though it is updatable) remind you you're in a mainstream sedan.One new technology debuting on the Mazda6 is Mazda's i-ELOOP brake energy regeneration system. Loopy name aside (really, can we stop with the Apple rip-offs already?), it's a clever system that combines a variable voltage alternator with a low-resistance, high-discharge double layer capacitor and DC/DC converter to quickly harvest energy during deceleration periods as short as 7 to 10 seconds. The capacitor sends the harvested energy to the DC/DC converter, which then uses it to power all the car's electrical systems. Surplus energy is sent to the regular battery. Shin Okamoto, who heads Mazda's Drivability & Environmental Performance Development Department, says the capacitor can store enough energy to power the Mazda6's myriad electrical systems for one minute. The genius behind this system is the capacitor enables the fast charge/discharge cycle that would otherwise damage a regular battery

2012 Buick LaCrosse vs. 2012 Hyundai Azera vs. 2013 Lexus ES 350

Think of this comparison of the Buick LaCrosse, Hyundai Azera, and Lexus ES 350 as an elimination round. Very soon, the soup bowl of contenders in the full-size, near-luxury sedan category will be joined by two new ingredients -- the profoundly revamped Toyota Avalon and Lincoln MKZ -- and both of them will spice things up.Hold on, an Avalon and an MKZ ... spicing things up? No, we don't mean in-car bingo on their entertainment screens. They're the revamped real deals. Toyota, after contemplating nixing the Avalon nameplate entirely, has pulled out the stops to build a serious player instead. And Lincoln? It's betting its entire brand on the MKZ re-establishing its relevance. But as we await these two, let's winnow down the existing challengers.

Of the current crop, our top trio hails from three different countries. The Buick LaCrosse is a familiar face that trumpeted Buick's return to the living three years ago. In 2010, we compared the LaCrosse to the previous-gen ES 350 and found the new Buick an unexpectedly good driver. It was dramatic-looking, with a confident, big personality design. And its claims of being very quiet were born out by it coming within a whisker of the previous-generation ES 350's noise levels.Since then, that ES 350 has been replaced by an all-new edition, which MT contributor Art St. Antoine recently explored in-depth. As he pointed out, it'll probably be an even bigger sales hit. But let me summarize his dim conclusion: "...in many respects it's downright disappointing, an uninspired effort, beneath what Lexus is clearly capable of." Some indisputable good news is that those Avalon origins (its predecessor was based on the Camry) have led to more than four inches of additional rear legroom. But overall, St. Antoine's critique is pretty harsh.

The Azera is a real wild card. Based on the Sonata's platform, it's sort of Hyundai's Avalon -- 3.5 inches longer than the Sonata and 1 inch wider. And the biggest winner is rear legroom, which is inflated by 2.2 inches. But what immediately struck us was the Azera's jewel-like interior. If Audi is the leader in sophisticated, artful interior design, Hyundai has become the ringmaster of mass-market dashboard dazzle. How well does it actually work? We'll get to that, but first, the numbers.

Two insights emerged from sifting through the data we recorded at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, California. First, the ES is a comparatively light car, light enough to leverage its last-place horsepower (268 versus the Azera's 293 and the LaCrosse's 303) into a sizable acceleration advantage. Remarkably, its 6-second-flat, 0-60 mph time is 0.6-second quicker than the Azera's and almost a second better than the 531-pound-heavier Buick's.The new ES is even 55 pounds lighter than its predecessor, delivering 2.4 better combined EPA mileage (2013's 24.6 mpg versus 2012's 22.2). Some of that is because of its Michelin Primacy MXV4 tires, which happen to be the same low-rolling-resistance rubber worn by the ES 300h hybrid. Unfortunately, it shows. 

The Lexus understeered its way round the figure-eight course's corners at a crummy 0.76 g, not helped at all by its group-worst weight distribution (61% of it up front). Frankly, I wondered if this car had the wrong tires, but a call confirmed that these are indeed the prescribed footwear.

Numerically, the track numbers don't offer a particularly clear picture - the Lexus is quickest in a straight line; the Hyundai stopped in the shortest distance; the Buick delivered the highest lateral grip. However, subjective differences most certainly emerged from our figure-eight lapping.Here's what I said about the LaCrosse: "On the road, the Buick seems easy to pitch and roll, but here, where it's being driven much, much harder, that impression largely disappears. It really gets with the program and turns in a lot better than I expected. Unfortunately, its seats are way too wide a perch for performance antics, and its insanely-wide A-pillars badly obstruct your view while cornering."On the Azera: "This car's steering is a tick more remote than the Buick. Its on-center response is slow, but add in some angle and the front end bites abruptly. The Buick's steering is no great shakes, but it's better than this. Within a few laps the Hyundai was really punishing its front tires."And the ES 350: "Although its stability system is still presiding over matters, its touch is so subtle, I was able to slightly spin the inside front tire at will while cornering. All its controls seem to have a little more clarity than the other two, but that understeer is a real problem. And its seats? Frankly, I'm simply flying into the door panel. The support is virtually nonexistent."To be honest though, for cars in this category, sportiness is an optional reward. But refinement better be standard equipment. And so we took all three cars to a favorite long, straight, delightfully ill-paved road late at night to measure interior noise over an uninterrupted, one-mile stretch. (The results were averaged two-ways.)This time, the ES 350 bested the Buick in interior noise, 24.6 sones (and 66.1 dBA) to 25.3 sones (66.7 dBA). The Hyundai was a sonic blink behind, tying the LaCrosse in sones, but generating 66.8 dBAs.

Mercedes-Benz Concept Style Coupe First Look

With the new A- and B-Class out of the way, Mercedes-Benz designers can flex their creative muscle on flashier variants that will use the new front-drive MFA platform, like the Concept Style Coupe. Mercedes hopes its affordable, entry-level MFA-based vehicles will lure in younger buyers, and the Concept Style Coupe -- set to debut at this month's Auto China show in Beijing -- should definitely excite those who lust for the CLS but can't afford its $72,175 price tag.

We spoke with Mercedes-Benz head designer Gorden Wagener, who told us that 90 percent of what we see in the concept car will make it to production. Once it reaches production, the "baby CLS" will be wearing CLA badges, referencing its designation as a coupe as well as its A-Class roots. Since style was the obvious objective for the concept, we're not surprised to see design cues pulled from the CLS, one of the most stylish vehicles in the Benz lineup. Like the CLS, the Concept Style Coupe features a coupe-like profile with a number of character lines in a design Mercedes describes as sinewy, sculptural, and masculine. Though Mercedes says the concept has no B-pillar , we expect the production version to retain B-pillars to keep costs down and structural rigidity up. Completing the profile are 20-inch, turbine-style rims.

Toyota Supra Successor Back in the Pipeline

As the Supra, Celica, and MR-S (MR2) progressively disappeared over the last decade, so too did the excitement from Toyota's lineup. But sports cars are back in the Japanese giant's product plan, led by the Lexus LFA and the new Scion FR-S, which is just about to hit showroom floors. And now it appears the green lamp is finally about to be lit on a long-awaited Supra successor

Several years ago, Toyota's U.S.-based product planners pitched a new hybrid sports car with looks, power, and environmental credentials. Unveiled at the 2007 Detroit auto show as the FT-HS, the concept reportedly pointed the way toward a reinterpretation of the Supra.

The financial crisis of 2008 prevented the FT-HS from becoming anything more than an attractive concept. But the spirit of that coupe survived and is reportedly being channeled into the design of the on-again, off-again, on-again Supra project. The edges and sharp angles you see in the attached illustration at top are how one artist interprets the direction Toyota is believed to be heading with its new sports car.

The car's final body is expected to be dropped onto the chassis of the GRMN MRS prototype, which has already undergone testing at Fuji Speedway. GRMN stands for Gazoo Racing Meister of Nurburgring, and was named after Nurburgring expert Hiromu Naruse, Toyota's late godfather of sports car development.Unlike the rear-drive FT-HS, the new sports coupe (it's unlikely to be called Supra) would employ an all-wheel-drive system and generate upwards of 400 horsepower. The car is rumored to feature a mid-engine-mounted, 3.5-liter V-6 hybrid setup mated to a CVT lifted from the new Lexus RX, but tuned for higher performance. The engine would drive the rear wheels, while in-wheel electric motors would power the fronts. GRMN's expertise would be utilized to help develop the car.The million-dollar question is when we'll see it in production. It's no secret that company CEO Akio Toyoda -- weekend racer, sports car addict, and the driving force behind bringing the extravagantly priced LFA to market -- is enthusiastic about a Supra successor. Toyota bosses haven't officially approved the project, but if Toyoda has his way and the economy shows continued signs of recovery, the new coupe could be on showroom floors by late 2015 for less than $60,000.

Next Gen Subaru WRX Prototype Revealed

The latest news to leak out of Subaru is as red hot as it is shocking. Remember how the international media called the silver Advanced Tourer Concept at last year's 2011 Tokyo Motor Show the next-generation Legacy? Looks like everyone got it wrong -- including us. We're going to make up for that here, however, since we have just learned that the Advanced Tourer was actually an early look at the next-generation Subaru WRX. That's right folks, the highly-anticipated WRX has already been revealed in prototype form.

This artist's impression depicts what we have been able to scrounge from a Subaru insider about the company's all-new sports car. The new WRX will get headlights, air dam, grille, and front brake ducts like those on the Advanced Tourer Concept. The overall side profile will resemble the Tourer as well, though the new WRX will incorporate far more aggressive front and rear wheel arches and fenders. Odds are it will be bigger too -- at roughly 180 inches long, 72 inches wide and 56 inches tall, the Advanced Tourer is more than 6 inches longer, 3.5 inches wider, and almost 2 inches shorter than the all-new Impreza. Like the outgoing model, it will likely be offered as a sedan and hatchback.

Speaking of the Impreza, the WRX will diverge the way the Nissan GT-R completely diverged from the Nissan Skyline sedan in 2007. While it will ride on a heavily modified version of the current Impreza platform, the WRX will no longer employ the suffix Impreza. The harsh reaction to Subaru's attempt to appeal to a broader audience by softening the 2008 WRX's ride and handling traits planted the seeds for that radical decision. We also learned that in designing the new car, product planners aimed to redefine the WRX from a turbocharged boy-racer into a more-mature sporty grand tourer with a higher-quality interior. Make no mistake, however, the new WRX will come with a stiff suspension setup and enough power to satisfy even the most hardcore fan.Speaking of power, a critical fact not yet clear is exactly what engines will motivate the new WRX. Our insider tells us that Subaru's R&D team is currently testing new FA series 1.6- and 2.0-liter direct-injected turbocharged boxer fours in addition to a hybridized version of the 1.6-liter turbo -- the powertrain featured in the Advanced Tourer Concept -- but he also says that while the R&D team is satisfied with the hybrid's mileage and emissions, they believe that the hybrid unit and its added weight wouldn't suit the WRX's performance focus. We're betting on the new 2.0-liter unit.

"There are those engineers who do support the hybrid idea, not least because the hybrid we are developing might employ some Toyota componentry. But the actual hybrid unit we are using is far lighter [than Toyota's THS-II] single-clutch design," explains our insider, adding that it was developed in-house. He told us that the current thinking inside Subaru is to channel the hybrid powertrain away from the WRX and into the all-new Legacy, due out in 2015. The new model will also incorporate a choice of the standard six-speed manual transmission or the updated version of Subaru's Lineartronic CVT fitted to the face-lifted Legacy that just went on sale in Japan.The new WRX STIshould surface in 2015, and it will be aimed squarely at the U.S. market. It is expected deliver more than 320 horsepower (presumably from an optimized version of the new FA 2.0-liter turbo) and compete in WTCC and the Nurburgring 24 Hours, in which the current model recorded a dramatic class win last year.This new WRX is part of Subaru's recently announced "Motion V" initiative, a plan to totally reinvent its powertrains and SI chassis, versions of which currently underpin both the Legacy and Impreza. "Expect to see more model downsizing and hybridization, while chassis will become even lighter and boast a higher quality finish," says our source.
