2018 Jeep Wrangler‬, ‪LA Auto Show‬‬

"Hybrid" and "off-road" are two words that don't normally go together. Here in Los Angeles, Jeep is bucking that trend and will introduce a plug-in hybrid version of the iconic Wrangler in 2020.

The powertrain joins the hotly anticipated 3.0-liter EcoDiesel engine that will appear in 2019, as well as the new 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbocharged engine that will be available when the Wrangler goes on sale in January. Purists need not fear, as the endlessly proven 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine is standard across all models.

We don't know much about the plug-in hybrid, but we assume it will be influenced by the drivetrain in the Pacifica, which is good for 33 miles of electric driving on a full charge from a 16 kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack. That battery is paired with a 3.6-liter V6 and returned 32 miles per gallon overall in the Pacifica when we had it out for testing. When you take into account that the 2018 Wrangler with the same 3.6-liter V6 gets an EPA-rated 20 miles per gallon combined, it's easy to see why a plug-in hybrid powertrain makes a bit of sense.

Whether off-road drivers will accept a hybrid Jeep remains to be seen. Still, the times, they are a-changing and some compromises must be made if Wrangler owners want to keep, you know, buying Wranglers in the future.

After years of teasers and trailers, the 2018 Jeep Wrangler known as the “JL” is finally officially being revealed and detailed at the Los Angeles Auto Show. Here’s a quick run through some of the new Jeep’s key specs and details.

While we won’t be driving the new Wrangler until next week and we’re waiting for the company’s press conference to start any minute, a heap of new information hit the internet earlier today from Road & Track’s Bob Sorokanich who drove the JL in New Zealand.

Engines

The 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 that’s been the Wrangler’s heart since 2012 (when it replaced a much-maligned 3.8 liter) will remain the default engine choice for the 4x4, though it’s important to note it is not a direct carry-over. Even though it has the same factory-claimed output of 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. It picks up 2 mpg city, 3 mpg highway, per Jeep.

That powerplant will apparently be paired with an all-new six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic transmission.

A 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder rated at 270 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque is on the options list, and bowing in 2019 on four-door Wranglers only will be a 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 rated to 260 horsepower and 442 lb-ft of torque, hooked up to a unique version of the eight-speed automatic.

Dimensions

The two-door Wrangler has grown by 2.8 inches in length, while the four-door will be 3.8 inches longer. The wheelbases have stretched by 1.4 inches and 2.4 inches, respectively. Wrangler bodies are just 0.2 inches wider, but the wheels have moved further apart with an extra 2.5 inches of track width.

Just like the now-outgoing “JK” body Wrangler, Sahara trim vehicles will get body colored fenders. Fenders on the Rubicon off-road trim are two inches higher, and the most-rugged model’s bumpers are now steel. The front is supposed to accommodate a Warn winch.

Climbing Angles

The outgoing JK Wrangler was the benchmark for approach, departure and break over angles, which dictate how steep of an obstacle the vehicle can scamper up or over. The new JL actually improves on those specs.

The JK stood with a 42.2-degree approach, a 32.3-degree departure, and a 25.8-degree breakover. Jeep claims that the JL has a 44-degree approach, a 37-degree departure, and a 27.8-degree breakover. The thing’s pretty much a damn mountain goat!

Features

The new Wrangler Rubicon will run 33-inch BF Goodrich KO2 all-terrain tires as standard, and apparently massive 35-inch tires will fit correctly with Mopar’s optional two-inch lift kit.

The push-button start will be standard, and hopefully waterproof, along with a 7-inch touchscreen. An 8.4-inch infotainment rig running Fiat Chrysler’s Uconnect operating system is optional.

A roll bar hoops over the Wrangler’s body, with tubes coming down at the A-pillars. The windshield is still removable, and better than that, supposed to be a lot easier to lower than it was on the outgoing JK. The rear-view mirror and even sun visors actually stay put too, as they’re mounted on a piece of roll-cage that spreads across where the top the windshield sits.

The doors still come off too, and now they’re nice lightweight aluminum. Anyone who’s ever tried to dismantle a Jeep will appreciate that.

Details

The new Wrangler is loaded with pre-threaded off-road toys, but I was especially intrigued by reports of pre-threaded mounting points near the windshield and improvements to the roof.

The 2018 vehicle’s roof will ship in a huge range of configurations, including a “no-walls” canvas mode, and a power-retracting soft top that’s like a giant sunroof. That one can be used at up to 60 mph, and no soft tops will have zippers, just grooves that should be a lot more durable.

Seats will have MOLLE-style nylon accessory mounting points, for your satchels and tactic-cool purses.

Electrification

The 2.0-liter turbo will get an alternator-based mild hybrid system we’ll discuss later, and a PHEV is slated for 2020. Yeah, a true hybrid-electric Wrangler. Welcome to the future.

CARS.COM — Ford Mustang owners love their Mustangs, and Chevrolet Corvette guys and gals are passionate about their plastic sports cars, but nobody is as fanatical as a Jeep Wrangler owner. So the pressure to not screw up a cultural icon (and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' cash cow) is immense.

Purists need not worry, for despite the fact that the new 2018 Wrangler "JL" got a very thorough redo, it still encompasses everything the old Wrangler was, just with a much more user-friendly approach.

Styling isn't all that different, and that's a good thing. The changes for 2018 reflect an idea of making the Wrangler easier to use while keeping the things its current owners love it. So, optional LED headlights should improve on the abysmal old headlights, and the aluminum doors are significantly lighter and easier to cart around. The soft top goes up and down far more easily and without fussy zippers. When the side panels are removed from the soft top, the lack of D-pillars allows you to have a kind of bikini top over the passengers for an improved open-air experience.Visibility is improved thanks to taller glass, and the windshield is now encased in a separate frame that folds down with the removal of just four bolts instead of 28 for 2017. The windshield comes off completely after removing the wipers and two more bolts. The back seat head restraints now fold down for improved visibility and into the seat when you drop it; negating the need to take out the head restraints requires you to choose to leave them at home or rattling around the cargo area, like the old Wrangler. The rear wiper now rests on the tailgate instead of high and center on the rear glass, also for improved visibility.

These ease-of-use updates are a direct result of feedback from customers asking for changes to improve their Wrangler experience. Make no mistake, however: The Wrangler remains a Wrangler with a cramped cabin, awkward rear seating, a high step-in and what is likely to be just as loud of a highway experience (we'll know for sure a week from now, so check back for our First Drive). But the Wrangler also promises to be a lot better, too, and the changes look like Jeep will make Wrangler ownership an easier experience without sacrificing the ability that many Wrangler owners require in their rig.

Triumph Bonneville Speedmaster unveiled in India; launch in April 2018

Triumph Bonneville Speedmaster unveiled in India; launch in April 2018 – Report

The 2018 Triumph Bonneville Speedmaster made its debut in the country at the 2017 India Bike Week in Goa. Bikewale reports that the bike will be launched in the country in April 2018.

Speaking to the website on the side-lines India Bike Week, Vimal Sumbly, Managing Director, Triumph Motorcycles India said that the brand would start selling the bike as soon as the global production of the bike commences in the beginning of the next fiscal (April 2018). However, the booking of the bike has commenced.

The motorcycle is essentially a touring-friendly, more practical take on the Bonneville Bobber. The 2018 Triumph Bonneville Speedmaster employs the same tubular steel cradle frame as the Bobber. But, Triumph has designed the rear subframe to accommodate a pillion seat and a grab rail as well. The bike comes with a full LED lighting system. For laidback ergonomics, the cruiser employs beach bars and forward-set footpegs.

The Speedmaster employs the same 1200cc SOHC parallel twin engine with liquid cooling as the Bobber. It generates 77 PS of power at 6,100 rpm and 106 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm. The engine mates with a 6-speed transmission with assist clutch. The bike gets a three-liter bigger fuel tank than the Bobber, at 12 liters. Electronics package includes ABS with switchable traction control; ride-by-wire with two riding modes- road and rain; and cruise control.

Expect Triumph to display the motorcycle at the 2018 Auto Expo in the country as well. The bike is likely to command a premium of INR 1-1.5 lakh over the Bobber. The Bobber costs INR 9.32 lakhs, ex-showroom, pan-India. When launched, it would be the most affordable cruiser motorcycle from Triumph after the Thunderbird family.

Following its debut at Triumph’s headquarters in Hinckley, the UK, last month, the British bike maker unveiled its latest cruiser in India at the 2017 India Bike Week last week. Now, we’ve learned that the Speedmaster will officially be launched in the country by April 2018! When launched, we expect the cruiser to be priced around Rs 11 lakh (ex-showroom) across India.

The Speedmaster is the latest addition to Triumph's Bonneville range and is a neo-retro cruiser that is based on the Bonneville Bobber. To live up to its cruiser credentials, the Speedmaster gets swept-back handlebars and forward-set footpegs that allow for a more relaxed riding position. Unlike the Bobber, the Speedmaster gets a longer split-saddle that can seat two. To give it an old school look, the Speedmaster gets a round headlamp, albeit with a modern LED bulb along with LED daytime running lights. A single-pod speedometer with a tiny LCD screen that displays various information sits on top of the headlamp.

The Speedmaster gets the 1200cc, liquid cooled, parallel-twin engine from the Bonneville Bobber. It churns out 77PS of power at 6100rpm and 106Nm of peak torque at 4000rpm. This motor is connected to a 6-speed gearbox.

Suspension duties are handled by 41mm telescopic forks with 90mm of wheel travel at the front and an adjustable monoshock unit with 73mm of rear wheel travel at the back. For braking, the bike employs twin 310mm discs with twin-piston Brembo floating calipers at the front and a single 255mm disc with a single-piston floating caliper from Nissin at the rear. ABS comes standard on the bike. Compared to the Bobber, which gets a 19-inch front wheel and a 16-inch rear wheel, the Speedmaster gets 16-inch spoked units at both ends.

To enhance its touring capabilities, the Speedmaster gets a 12-liter fuel tank. The Bobber, on the other hand, gets a smaller 9.1-litre tank. The cruiser also gets ride-by-wire throttle and two riding modes for road and rain. It’s also equipped with switchable traction control and cruise control as standard as well. The Speedmaster has a saddle height of 705mm when compared to the Bobber’s 690mm. This is because the former has thicker cushioning that promises to make long distance riding a whole lot comfortable. With a curb weight of 245.5kg, the Speedmaster is the heaviest motorcycle in the Bonneville range.

The Speedmaster is also available with two customisation kits - Maverick and Highway. While the Maverick gets a flatter handlebar and a single seat, the Highway gets an adjustable windscreen along with split seats and a backrest for the pillion. It also gets a small luggage carrier as standard as well. Further, the Maverick kit comes with a Vance & Hines exhaust, which along with other smaller bits, are painted black. The Highway kit gets panniers on either side while retaining all the chrome elements from the standard cruiser.

When launched, the Speedmaster will compete against the Indian Scout Sixty and the Harley-Davidson 1200 Custom.

Fluorescent Dye May Help Detect 99 Percent Of Invisible Ocean Plastic Waste

Researchers have found a new way to detect tiny pieces of plastic waste in the ocean using fluorescent dye. They say the new method is less expensive but more effective at identifying invisible microplastics.

Plastic is the most prevalent kind of debris found in the open ocean and Great Lakes today. They come in different sizes and shapes, but those that are about the size of a sesame seed are known as microplastics.

Microplastics mainly break away from larger plastic materials and they are so small in size, most of them are lost and invisible. One study suggests that around 99 percent of the plastic in the ocean remain hidden.

In order to test the new technique, researchers at the University of Warwick had collected samples of tiny plastics from seawater around the coast of Plymouth in England.

They tried to apply the method to the samples they extracted and found the technique to be more effective at pinpointing microplastics than other conventional methods. They also found that the number of microplastics was much larger than they previously thought.

Gabriel Erni-Cassola, one of the authors of the study, said that this method allows scientists to view and analyze a huge series of samples much faster, and to get huge amounts of data on the number of microplastics in seawater.

Erni-Cassola added that in current methods, scientists have to pick samples of microplastics one by one in order to determine the amount.

Fluorescent dyes can attach to plastic particles and make them more visible under a fluorescence microscope. By using the dye, scientists were able to pinpoint microplastics from among other natural materials in the marine environment.

Researchers at the university have also found that the majority of microplastics were made of polypropylene, a common thermoplastic polymer that is used in packages and containers for food. This suggests the link between consumer habits and its effects on the ocean.

Dr. Joseph A. Christie-Oleza, a co-author of the study, said the method still needs to be carried out in scientific surveys in the future in order to confirm these results and also to understand how plastic waste behaves in the marine environment.

The study is called “Lost, but found with the Nile red; a novel method to detect and quantify small microplastics (20 μm-1 mm) in environmental samples” and was published in the Environmental Science & Technology.

An enormous amount of plastic is being washed away in the sea every year and research has showcased that we do not know the whereabouts of the extension part of it is. The abrasive intensity of ocean smash these bottles, cigarette lighters and slices of packaging down into minute smattering that is strenuous to track, but scientists have devised a technique that could divulge their location in form of a glimmering fluorescent dye.

Microplastics can estimate as minute as the width of a human hair, and one latest research approximated there to be someplace in the middle of 93,000 and 236,000 metric tons of plastic floating around on the facade of the ocean.

The scientists elucidate that there is about one percent of that stuff in the ocean, so where is the remainder of it? Erik van Sebille, the lead author on that study, said that it’s something like astronomers dispensing with the unexplained of dark matter.

He also said that the amount of plastic trapped in various natural environments needs to be determined, for example, on the sea floor, mangrove forests and in the stomachs of marine animals and entity. We require that to be found out otherwise we will not know where marine life connects with the plastics so we are also unaware of where to clean up.

Some scientists are researching the chemicals within the plastics that are being disseminated into the water as the materials are damaged. These could be consumed by the amphibians, in turn, calling out for their safety and also the safety of human beings who in turn imbibe them.

A scientist has developed a novel technique to track plastic waste much of which measures as tiny a  20 micrometers, about the width of human hair, that ends up in the bottom of seas and oceans.

Millions of metric tons of plastic are washed into the sea each year, and according to studies, scientists have no idea where the vast majority of it goes. this is because plastic from bottles, packaging, etc, gets broken down into tiny fragments that are difficult to track. The new technique allows their whereabouts to be tracked using a glowing fluorescent dye.

A recent study estimated there is somewhere between 93,000 and 236,000 metric tons of the plastic waste floating around on the surface of the ocean, but this is only 1 percent of the total plastic waste in the ocean.

Erik van Sebille, the lead author on that study said, "We don't know how much of it is on the seafloor, we don't know how much of it is on the coastlines or beaches, trapped in mangrove forests, those kinds of things, and we don't know how much is in the guts of marine animals and organisms.''

"As long as we don't know that, we don't know where marine life interacts with those plastics and we also don't know where is best to take out the plastic or to clean it up."

According to experts, the smallest microplastics in our oceans are potentially harmful.

Scientists at the University of Warwick in the UK found, according to the study published in the journal Environmental Science & Technology, a much larger amount of small microplastics (smaller than one mm), than previously estimated - and significantly more than what would have been identified previously with traditional methods.

They also found that the greatest abundance of microplastics of this small size was polypropylene, a common polymer used in packaging and food containers.

10 things we wish we'd known before starting Star Wars Battlefront 2

Introduction

There’s been a lot of controversy surrounding Star Wars Battlefront and its use of microtransactions, but just as we stated in our review, the game beyond the loot boxes is an exhilarating and rewarding shooter that can still be enjoyed if you know how to make the most of its myriad systems. 

So here are ten things we wish we’d known before returning to the galaxy far, far away. From understanding what Star Cards are and how to use them effectively to maximising rewards and currency by hitting the right objectives in the campaign, we’ll have you learning from our mistakes in no time.

Use supply crates to unlock new Star Cards

The single-player campaign has its own set of Star Cards that are unlocked by locating and hacking white supply crates. Since these abilities and weapons are usually pretty important when it comes to overcoming each mission’s myriad firefights, most of these crates are easy to find but also relatively simple to miss if you’re rushing through like an X-Wing in hyperspace. 

Once an ability is unlocked, you’ll be able to drop one or more of these new cards and use them either via the D-pad or the shoulder buttons. Remember you can hold down on the D-pad to learn more about your currently equipped abilities.

Use death to re-calibrate

Much like in Arcade and Multiplayer, death isn’t just a blank ‘game over’ screen - it’s a way to actively change up your loadout to overcome the challenge that just put you down. From this screen, you can change up your Star Cards (try having an active ability and another tool-based card active at all times). 

You can also change up your weapons. Depending on where you are in the campaign’s 12 missions, you can swap out your Star Wars boomstick for something more suitable. Now go use your improved loadout to show those Imperials/Rebels who’s boss.

Campaign milestones mean prizes

Completing select missions in the campaign won’t just bag you a trophy or achievement, it’ll also unlock a unique and very special loot crate. These black and yellow crates can only be unlocked by completing these key campaign sections and will provide you with a random set of emotes, Star Cards, credits, and salvage (for upgrading and crafting Star Cards for multiplayer). 

To find these boxes of free stuff, head to the main menu tab and select ‘Get More Crates’. These unlock can’t be used in single-player, but they’ll be free to use everywhere else.

Check the Career tab for campaign rewards

Completing each chapter in the campaign will net you a reward that you can cash in from the main menu of the game. 

Simply press ‘RB’/’R1’ to scroll across to the Career tab, then select the Campaign section below. You’ll then see a list of rewards tied to each mission. Once complete, simply press ‘Y’/’Triangle’ to redeem your reward. 

Each one varies depending on the chapter in question, but you'll get anything from a couple of hundred credits to some crafting parts. If you’re looking for extra currency to buy new crates, unlock Heroes or craft new cards, these rewards are a great way to line your pockets.

Always concentrate fire on Officers

Since Star Wars Battlefront 2 is largely a multiplayer experience, it’s no surprise you’ll be encountering plenty of pitched battles in the campaign. The AI in the story mode isn’t the brightest, but it still uses a hierarchy system that sees officers commanding groups of Stormtroopers. 

Stormtroopers are more aggressive and ultimately more effective when an officer is around, so concentrate your fire on the officer first to send each group into disarray. The fight that follows should be far less challenging without him. You’ll also find multiple officers in larger areas so be sure to be aware of your surroundings.

Stock up on Star Cards to unlock new slots

Battlefront 2’s Star Card system can be a little confusing at first, especially when trying to maximise the effectiveness of each class. You can’t level up a class by traditional general means, instead you need to collect Star Cards specifically tied to Assault, Heavy, Specialist, Officer or any of the Heroes or vehicles. 

The more cards you own, the higher the level of that class. Reaching a total of five cards will unlock the second slot on your Star Card hand while collecting ten will open up the third one. Now select a good set of cards to fill these slots.

Use crafting parts to craft new cards

Tying directly back into the previous tip, Battlefront 2 provides an easy way to boost the number of cards in your collection - crafting. Crafting parts is the currency you’ll need for this, which is most commonly dropped through Supply Crates (your daily crate will almost always have some included with it). 

Crafting parts will also be produced when you unlock a duplicate Star Card. To craft a card and unlock it, head to the Collection tab on the main menu, select your chosen class then use your salvage balance to bring it into play. It’ll usually cost you around 40 crafting points to craft a card.

Enhance Heroes with the right cards

Heroes, Villains and the iconic vehicles they’re known for piloting can be a game changer if used right. But that doesn’t mean they’re invincible. Much like any other class, knowing which Star Cards to craft, upgrade and equip can drastically change how effective a character can be a fight. 

Jedi Fighter is a must for Luke Skywalker; Bloodlust transforms Kylo Ren into a frenzied monster; Bonus Health toughens up Darth Vader; Anti-Hero Rockets make Boba Fett formidable against other Heroes; Opportunist increases Rey’s damage; Rebel Heart makes Leia far tougher, and Heavily-Modified Blaster makes Han’s blaster into a beast.

Know your boosts from your Abilities

Star Cards can get really complicated, especially because Battlefront 2 does such a poor job of adequately explaining the different systems at play when you start. One big feature that’s easy to misunderstand is the two distinctions in Star Cards - Boosts and Abilities. 

Boosts are augments that increase the effectiveness of your existing abilities, while Abilities are new tools, gear or powers you can use in battle. Craft or buy enough cards from Supply Crates to unlock each of the slots in your hand, then try experimenting to see which cards a) suit the class and b) suit your play style.

Maximise your score with objectives in Starfighter Assault

We’ll admit, few things in Battlefront 2 are as satisfying and exhilarating as dogfighting with other players and AI in Starfighter Assault, but much like the rest of the modes in the game simply chasing kills is actually a less effective way to bank the most Battle Points and XP at the end of the match. 

To level up faster, play to every objective in a match, including any side-objectives that pop up. Most players will shoot after kills, so keep plugging away at objectives and you’ll rocket up the leaderboard in no time.

How to set up the Xbox one X and transfer all your old games and data

How to set up the Xbox one X and transfer all your old games and data

the Xbox One X has finally been released which means that the era of native 4K gaming on a console is well and truly upon us.

You have hopefully Randhawa definitive Xbox One X review, and check it out our Guide to the best Xbox One X and handset games, and you might have purchased one of the consoles for yourself. if you have, or you are planning to, then we have got ahold Hip Hop advice to help you set up the new control as quickly and easily as possible.

setting up the Xbox One X is actually no more complicated than any other console, but there are a couple of time-saving hacks you can use to get yourself up and running as quickly as possible.

better still, you can actually start the preparation before your new console arrives (if you are transitioning from one previous Xbox One), Saving yourself, even more, time down the line. if this is your first Xbox One, then feel free to skip ahead to step to see since you won't have any prayer data to transfer over.

so let's get started.

step 1:  pre-download your Xbox One X patches to your existing Xbox One

If you are moving from Android Xbox One or Xbox One S then you can be download a lot of the graphics 50 that the Xbox One X is going to need later.

by default the previous console its own download all the friendship ok acids and textures that the new console will use because these take up space and don't do anything on the old hardware.

but if you want to get ahead of the curve and save yourself having to download them later then you can choose to download them onto your existing console ahead of time.

Here is how to do it:  so I am going to tell you the personal method which is used

1. Press the central Xbox button to open the sidebar menu

2.  scroll down and select settings

3. from there select system and then back up and transfer

4. you will see an option to download 4K game content select this to take the box

5. with that box ticket jump out of this menu and head back to the system when you where you will select updates

6. from this minute take the box that says keep my games and apps up to date

if this process has worked then you will be able to see the 50 downloading in the updates section of the games and apps menu after this. You can filter buy Xbox One X enhanced at the top of the list of your games to see which games have received enhancements.

if you are finding that the patches and downloading one of two things might have happened first need a game might not have received an Xbox One X 5 so check Microsoft list to see if it's missing.

secondly  these patches might not be downloading because you don't have enough free space on your console to store them unfortunately this means you are going to have to do a bit of clear out since then you Call Saul doesn't have another hard drive it might even have smaller one if you currently have an Xbox One S with 2tb is of storage

It's worth noting that even if you don't download the patches on to your word console transferring game that I will still save you time as the new hardware will then only have to download the new assets rather than the entire game

Step 2: transferring your data

by now you will either have an old Xbox One with the number of games installed with their Xbox One X 50 waiting in the wings or you will have an old Xbox One with just your old games in it

When you are new controller lives it's time to actually get them transferred you have two options here you can either transfer the data using an external hard drive or you can transfer it over you are home network
