Book Synopsis Road Testing Cars of Distinction by : Ed Miller
Download or read book Road Testing Cars of Distinction written by Ed Miller and published by . This book was released on 2017-08-23 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a void that yearns to be filled. Numerous books and articles concerning luxury motor cars manufactured prior to the Second World War have been written. These publications describe their beauty of design, the history of various marques and include a limited amount of mechanical specifications. With few exceptions, there is no in-depth examination of the car's performance and what can be expected of such a vehicle on today's roads. Road Testing Cars of Distinction intends to fill that void. Beginning in the late 1940s, the modern road test began to develop in America. A typical report includes a vehicle's acceleration time, top speed, handling characteristics, braking ability, driving comfort, etc. In short, the modern road test provides in depth information. Prior to World War II, published road tests generally contained much less useful data than today's enthusiast has come to expect. Road Testing Cars of Distinction remedies this lack of relevant information. Each chapter offers a comprehensive road test of a Classic car in words, charts and pictures from information gathered and exhaustively researched during the last ten years. Road Testing Cars of Distinction places the reader in the driver's seat and takes him on an imaginary ride in a luxury vintage motor car. From a 265 horsepower Duesenberg Model J Sport Phaeton to a 32 horsepower Franklin Sport Runabout, the reader is vicariously transported behind the wheel to savor the excitement of driving an automobile usually reserved for the elite of society. The common thread running through each chapter is that all the cars tested were high-end cars. Not high-end luxury cars as we know them today, but automobiles that were so expensive that annual sales were frequently in the double digits or less. It is a book that both the knowledgeable vintage car aficionado and teenager about to receive his driver's license will relish reading and retaining for reference because he may currently own or someday acquire one of these mobile masterpieces of technological art. Road Testing Cars of Distinction is the culmination of ten years of road testing approximately one hundred magnificent Classic motor cars across the United States The book contains some of the most sought after as well as some of the most obscure luxury Classic cars. I have attempted to cover as many different makes as possible in the limited space available and yet also devote time to the more popular old cars without retracing paths that are well trodden by other authors. In addition to the twenty-eight chapters is a table setting forth performance figures for the twenty-eight motor cars road tested. This table provides a shorthand reference of each vehicle's performance potential. Road Testing Cars of Distinction places the keys in your hands, plants you in the driver's seat and provides you with an imaginary test drive of some very rare and enthralling motor cars.

Download or read book Handbook of Automotive Human Factors written by Motoyuki Akamatsu and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-06-14 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thanks to advances in computer technology in the last twenty years, navigation system, cabin environment control, ACC, advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) and automated driving have become a part of the automobile experience. Improvement in technology enables us to design these with greater flexibility and provide greater value to the driver (human centered design). To achieve this, research is required by laboratories, automobile and auto parts manufacturers. Although there has been a lot of effort in human factors research and development, starting from basic research to product development, the knowledge and experience has not been integrated optimally. The aim of this book is to collect and review the information for researchers, designers and developers to learn and apply them for further research and development of human centered design of future automotive technologies. Automotive human factors include psychological, physiological, mathematical, engineering and even sociological aspects. This book offers valuable insights to applying the right approach in the right place.
