1996 Jaguar XK8 Hot Wheels 1:64

The XK8 was launched in 1996 to replace the XJS designed by then Jaguar design director Geoff Lawson. It was available in two body styles - a three-door hatchback coupé and two-door convertible with both variations featuring 2+2 seating. The car was the first in the Jaguar line-up to use Jaguar's newly developed 32-valve V8 engine - the AJ-V8 which had a displacement of 4.0 litres.

The XK8 was joined by a more powerful XKR in 1998. The XKR featured a supercharged variation of the V8 engine rated at 276 kW (375 PS; 370 hp). The engine was shared with the XJR but featured a new intercooler and a two-piece driveshaft. The supercharger was manufactured by Eaton and displaced at 2.0 litres. It generated 11.9 pounds of boost pressure to contribute to the higher power output. Visual differences from the XK8 included a rear spoiler, mesh front grille and hood louvres on the bonnet for improved airflow to the engine.

The XK8 came standard with 17-inch alloy wheels, while 18-inch (standard on the XKR), 19-inch, and 20-inch wheels were available for the XK8 and XKR at an additional cost. Jaguar's Adaptive Cruise Control is an optional feature available on both models. Both models came with all-leather interior, burl walnut trim, and side airbags. Two interior configurations were offered, the sport configuration was aimed at young buyers and had a leather interior with cloth seats while the classic trim featured more amenities.

The XK range received a mechanical update in 2002 with the engines in both the XK8 and XKR models being enlarged to 4.2 litres and gaining more power, the front headlamps were also updated by the addition of a clear lens. Further changes included new exterior colours and wheels along with different badging. The models were revised again in spring 2004 and notable changes included new wheel designs, bigger front and rear spoilers and a redesigned grille.

Initially, the ZF 5HP24 five-speed automatic transmission was coupled to the conventionally aspirated 4.0-litre model and a Mercedes W5A580 five-speed transmission to the supercharged version, but in 2002 the new ZF 6HP26 six-speed automatic transmission was fitted in both versions of the 4.2-litre model.

Hummer fue una marca de automóviles todo-terreno perteneciente al grupo General Motors. El primer modelo es un derivado del Humvee, un vehículo de uso militar. El 26 de febrero de 2010, General Motors anunció que tenía conversaciones con varias armadoras interesadas en adquirir la marca después del fallido intento de negociaciones con Sichuan Tengzhong. No obstante, la compañía había anunciado su interés en desmantelar la fábrica y venderla por partes, el 7 de abril de 2010, General Motors oficialmente dio por concluida la fabricación de la marca Hummer SUV y que ofrecía atractivas ofertas para vender los 2.200 vehículos restantes.
El HMMV era originalmente fabricado por AM General Corporation, la anterior división de motores para el gobierno y las fuerzas armadas estadounidenses. AM General decidió empezar a vender vehículos para los civiles a finales de los años 1980. En 1990 dos Hummer blancos emparejados fueron conducidos por la parte central de la Unión Soviética. Los Hummer hicieron el camino sin ningún problema, ya que fueron diseñados para ser conducidos por terrenos fuera de la carretera. Con el éxito del viaje el Hummer se difundió más en los Estados Unidos. Esta difusión se vería palidecida en comparación con los servicios del HMMWV en la Operación Tormenta del Desierto al año siguiente.

The Chevrolet Impala SS was a high-performance sedan produced by Chevrolet from 1994 to 1996. Essentially a high-performance Chevrolet Caprice, the Impala SS badge was resurrected by Jon Moss in 1992 for a concept car that would eventually become what is now known as the Impala SS.
