2018 Kawasaki H2 SX SE - Favorites And Fails
What’s great—and, well, not so great—about Kawasaki’s latest supercharged sportbike.We know what you’re thinking. “The H2 SX is just an H2 with different bodywork and softer power settings in the ECU.” Although it might look that way from a cursory glance, the SX is so different from its H2/H2R forebears when you get up close and then actually ride the thing, it really does deserve a look if you’re interested in something a little more lively than the usual boring sport-tourers on the market. I’ve ridden both the H2 and H2R (as well as many other S-T bikes available), so I have a pretty good perspective on how the H2 SX SE fits in the grand scheme of motorcycling.

A torque converter is a type of fluid coupling which transfers rotating power from a prime mover, like an internal combustion engine, to a rotating driven load.

One of the more complicated systems of a car with an automatic transmission is the torque converter. They are one of those parts where most mechanically minded people know what they do, but may not know how they work. The guys over at Donut Media have put out a video that simplifies how a torque converter functions with the help of the Koenigsegg Regera, an electric hybrid hypercar with no transmission. Though the car's engineering and design are very extreme, its torque converter (hydraulic coupling) is the keystone to its blistering speed. For you visual learners out there this is a great starting point to understand torque converters work.
2019 Bentley Continental GT First Drive: Worth the Wait
Muscular British luxury on a grand scaleThe original press drive for the all-new, 2019 Bentley Continental GT was slated for November 2017, in Barcelona, Spain.

First Drive: 2019 Ram 1500 eTorque Mild Hybrid .
Ram’s Unique 48-Volt, Mild-Hybrid System that improves fuel economy, driveability, and powertrain smoothness. Standard on the base 3.6L Pentastar V-6 and a $1,450 option on the available 5.7L HEMI V-8, it replaces the engine’s traditional alternator with a beltdriven motor/generator that adds torque (so the engine contributes less) on launch, smooths the eight-speed automatic’s shifts, and recovers energy (to a suitcase-size, lithium-ion battery mounted behind the seat on the rear cabin wall) through regenerative braking during coasting and deceleration.
