www.oakvillebeaver.com The Oakville Beaver Weekend, Sunday December 24, 2006 - A15 Chrysler Group takes home prestigious award For the fifth year in a row, and every year since its 2003 re-introduction, Chrysler Group's famous 5.7-litre Hemi engine has earned a place on Ward's 10 Best Engines list. Joining the Hemi in winning the award is DaimlerChrysler's 3.0-litre V6 Turbo Diesel, available in the 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee. First introduced in the 2003 Dodge Ram, the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 achieves power, fuel economy and emissions goals with a design that is elegant and cost effective. The engine is available in the Chrysler 300, Chrysler Aspen, Jeep Commander, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Charger, Dodge Durango, Dodge Magnum and Dodge Ram. A high-performance 6.1-litre version of the Hemi V8 is offered in many of Chrysler Group's SRT lineup of vehicles, including the Chrysler 300C SRT8, Dodge Charger SRT8, Dodge Magnum SRT8 and Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8. Joining the 5.7-litre Hemi V8 on Ward's 10 Best Engines list for 2007 is the new 3.0-litre V6 common-rail diesel (CRD) Turbo Diesel. Available in the 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee, the advanced diesel engine features more torque than most eight-cylinder engines, impressive acceleration and fuel economy that rivals a small six-cylinder gasoline engine. The Mercedes-built 3.0-litre CRD is one of the most advanced powerplants available in the marketplace today. It is designed to be an efficient, smooth- running engine with up to 30 per cent improved fuel economy without sacrificing performance. Suzuki Grand Vitara Recognized by Consumer Guide Suzuki Motor Corporation announced that its 2007 Grand Vitara has received the Consumer Guide Automotive Best Buy award. An integral part of Suzuki's life enthusiast brand proposition and its diverse product line, the Grand Vitara has helped drive record-breaking sales and received numerous industry awards since it was first introduced in 2006. The longstanding popularity of the Grand Vitara, coupled with the recent introduction of the Suzuki XL7 and SX4, has put Suzuki on track to exceed 100,000 vehicle sales for the first time in the company's 21-year history. The Best Buy award in the Compact Sport-Utility Vehicle category presented by Consumer Guide(R) Automotive was Suzuki's first. Every year, Consumer Guide Automotive editors select new vehicles from the hundreds of cars they evaluate for a Best Buy or Recommended award and choose the best overall values in 17 category segments, ranging from inexpensive compact cars to premium luxury SUVs. A vehicle's price, features, accommodations and its performance during test drives are considered when determining a Best Buy or Recommended award. A Best Buy represents an optimum balance of attributes within its class across 10 rating categories. 2007 Honda CR-V and Pilot earn safety award The all-new 2007 Honda CR-V, along with the 2007 Honda Pilot, were among seven SUVs to earn the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's (IIHS) "Top Safety Pick" awards for 2007. The annual award, given to SUVs for the first time this year, recognizes vehicles that perform best in protecting passengers in front, side and rear crashes, based on their ratings in the Institute's tests. As part of Honda's "Safety for Everyone" initiative, all trim levels of the 2007 Honda CR-V and the 2007 Honda Pilot include side curtain airbags with a rollover sensor as standard equipment. These airbags further complement the vehicles' existing standard driver's and front passenger's airbags (SRS), front-side air bags with passenger-side Occupant Position Detection System and Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA). In addition, the CR-V utilizes Honda's Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure. Mazda MX-5 Roadster coupe wins Top Gear award 2006 BBC Top Gear magazine has named the new Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe its Roadster of the Year 2006. For the second year in a row Mazda has scooped this prestigious crown, following last year's victory for the Mazda MX-5 soft-top, the world's most popular sports car. Top Gear praised the achievement of the new Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe in glowing terms, "It's a new car but it feels like a familiar friend. By a stroke of genius, Mazda has made the helmeted MX-5 look and feel just like the cloth-capped version we know and love. Its unique roof drops into the well left vacant by the soft-top, for which it's substituting. The hard roof folds in 12 seconds, which is record-breaking for a coupe/cabrio."
