Inca nu inteleg de ce e la 90 de grade, mai ales ca nu e hot vee, dar poate au un plan si un V8. Oricum e un pas important ca au renuntat la mizerabilii de Ferrari si acum nu mai li se impun limite.

Maserati presents Nettuno: the new 100% Maserati engine that adopts F1 technology for a road car

The soul of the engine is the innovative pre-chamber combustion system featuring twin-spark plugs. This technology is derived from Formula 1 and is now available, for the first time, on an engine destined for the road.

5.11
Ignition systems :
5.11.1
Ignition is only permitted by means of a single ignition coil and single spark plug per cylinder.
No more than five sparks per cylinder per engine cycle are permitted.
The use of plasma, laser or other high f
requency ignition techniques is forbidden.
Only approved ignition coils
may be used and the list of parts approved by the FIA, and the
approval procedure, may be found in the Appendix to the Technical Regulations.

Chiar vazusem in dimineata asta, la mine in urbe, un Cayenne pe care scria 'eHybrid'. E bine deci ca si Maserati a inceput electrificarea pentru ca e nevoie de asa ceva pentru viitorul lor.

Si... 155 TI DTM avea v6 la 60°...

The 1996 version had a 2.5 L 90° V6 engine based loosely on the PRV engine rated at 490 PS (360 kW; 483 hp) at 11,900 rpm. The car has a top speed of around 300 km/h (190 mph) and weighed 1,060 kilograms (2,340 lb).

The original engineering work done on the V8 engine can still be seen in the resulting V6 engine: its cylinder banks are arranged at 90°, instead of the much more common 60°. V8 engines nearly universally feature 90° configurations, because this allows for a natural firing order. V6 engines, on the other hand, produce even firing intervals between cylinders when their two banks of cylinders are arranged at 60°. 90-degree V6 engines, like the PRV, experience uneven firing, which can be addressed using split crankshaft journals. 90° V6 engines are shorter and wider than 60° engines, allowing lower engine bay hood/bonnet profiles.

The PRV was also the basis for the 90° V6 engine used by Alfa Romeo in the 155 V6 Ti in the 1996 DTM/ITC season from Silverstone onwards. The engines in that series required the use of bank separation angle and cylinder bore spacing from a production based engine, and as a 90° V6 has greater room between banks than a 60° V6 for a more optimal induction system, Alfa Romeo used the PRV as a basis as it had been used in the Lancia Thema, a car which shared its platform with the Alfa Romeo 164, as well as the Fiat Croma and Saab 9000.

Other sources declare that the 90° V6 engine in 1996 Alfa Romeo 155 V6 Ti is based on a 2.6 L V8 from 1970 Alfa Romeo Montreal with 2 cylinders removed, as allowed by the rules, however the FIA homologation documentation shows the homologated production engine was a "2850cm³" capacity "V6” engine. The bore spacing of the Montreal engine was too close to be suitable for the 155 V6 Ti in any case. Limone invented the "Montreal V8" story to throw the press off the scent and to satisfy FIAT management who were unhappy that a non-FIAT group developed engine was being used.

Interesant, chiar nu stiam asta, dar se pare ca in 1996 au trecut de la clasicul v6 60°, la alt motor. Daca informatiile de pe Wiki sunt corecte, e un motor bazat pe motorul V6 PRV PSA/Renault/Volvo

Nu stiu daca e bine, pentru ca o fac cu motorul de 2l de pe Giulia. Nu zic ca nu e un motor bun, dar parca nu prea da bine un motor l4 pe un Maserati.

The court determined those claims were misleading.

“The use of the term ‘Autopilot’ and other formulations suggest that the vehicle is technically capable of fully autonomous driving,” the court said. Autopilot is “a driver assistance system,” the court said. “While underway, driving without human intervention is not possible.”

FRANKFURT/MILAN (Reuters) - German prosecutors said on Wednesday they were searching offices at Fiat Chrysler and CNH Industrial as part of an international fraud investigation over emissions.

The investigation targets potentially illegal emissions software found in engines used in Fiat Chrysler’s (FCA) Fiat, Alfa Romeo and Jeep vehicles and in CNH Industrial’s Iveco trucks.

"Selon ce rapport, les systèmes de dépollution de cette voiture étaient réglés pour passer la norme en laboratoire, mais quasiment inopérants dans d'autres conditions. Ceux-ci se désactivent automatiquement après 22 minutes, alors qu'un test d'homologation dure 20 minutes ! Par ailleurs, la boîte de vitesses automatique de la Fiat 500X semblerait détecter les moments où le véhicule passe un test, et changerait ses réglages en conséquence…"
