When one hybrid is more equal than another

By Dan Carney, msnbc.com contributor

Consumers understand some basic calculus when shopping for cars.?Used to be that Japanese > domestic, but these days it is more like Japanese ~ domestic.

But doesn?t hybrid = hybrid?? And surely BMW > Chevrolet, right?

Well no, actually.?

There are different kinds of hybrids, but one broadly safe generalization is that there are strong hybrids that have big batteries and strong electric motors and there are mild hybrids which offer little more than automatic engine stop/start for improved fuel economy in urban driving.

Chevrolet made the mistake a few years back of branding the Malibu mild hybrid as a hybrid, leading to disappointed customers who thought it would be a Prius-like system.? It wasn?t and to prevent such confusion Chevy now calls its mild hybrid model the Malibu Eco.

This is likely to be the way of most conventional internal combustion-powered cars in the not-too-distant future; the gas engines will stop and start automatically and there may be a bit of electric regeneration under braking and some mild assist during acceleration, but they will effectively be conventional gas cars.

BMW is following this road map, and as part of its increasing efficiency, the company has substituted a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder for its trademark inline-six cylinder engines in the new 528 and 328 models.? The Bavarians figure that drivers of the Ultimate Driving Machine will willingly swap some of the six?s signature smoothness and sound for more power and better gas milage.

They may be right, but that straight-six sound was one of the reasons to select BMW over its increasingly good alternatives.

Additionally, BMW has bolstered the four-cylinder?s frugality with an automatic stop/start system that avoids gas wasted idling at lights.? It is a sound concept embraced by more new models every year and the idea has been around long enough now that customers are familiar with it and comfortable with the notion.

Except that BMW hasn?t executed this basic technology with any finesse.?? I first drove a stop/start-equipped car more than a decade ago at the proving ground of one of the electrical supplier companies that make starters and alternators for the car companies.

Telling people about the technology afterward, they were always skeptical: Isn?t it intrusive, having the engine stop and then having the starter crank it back up again all the time?? Won?t that wear out the starter?

No, silly, they wouldn?t be foolish enough to do stop/start with a regular starter: They do it with a special starter that doesn?t clank into engagement with the flywheel.? The strong hybrids have an electric motor starter built into the flywheel. ?Mild ones like the Chevy use a souped up alternator that is connected to the engine with a belt.

But now comes BMW, with the nerve to do exactly what customers feared all along. They actually expect drivers to tolerate a conventional starter clanking into engagement and then cranking the engine up.

Unlike the seamless Chevy, which starts and stops unnoticeably, the BMW?s engine shudders to a stop, just like the one in your regular car.?? You don?t really notice or care that your car does that because it only does it when you are finished driving, not at every red light.? When stopped, the Malibu Eco?s tachometer drops to 0 rpm, but that?s the only indication the engine has stopped.

On startup, the Malibu?s engine almost magically starts running like it never stopped in the time that it takes the driver?s foot to get from the brake to the gas. ?The BMW makes the strained sounds of the starter churning the engine back to life, and it shudders as it regains the fire.

And get this: BMW uses conventional engine-driven hydraulic power steering.? That means the steering wheel goes heavy and dead in your hands at a stop.? Trying to turn the wheel a bit to prepare for a turn after the stop brings the surprise that the steering doesn?t seem to work.

Force it and the engine groans back to life annoyingly.?The Chevy has electric power steering, which is much maligned for its typical lack of steering feel on cars whose software hasn?t been sufficiently tuned.? But it is a godsend in the Malibu in comparison to BMW?s ham-handed application of hydraulic steering to a car whose engine periodically stops running.

It is no accident that the Malibu?s stop/start procedure is seamless, explained Stephen Poulos, global chief engineer for General Motor?s stop/start technology.? The belt-driven electric motor brings the engine to life in less than one full rotation so it just springs to life.? When stopping, the same motor works to dampen any vibrations from the stopping engine.? It also halts its spinning in one rotation, while the BMW in contrast chugs on for a couple dying spins before its melodramatic silent-film death.

Chevy?s engine management computer also uses the throttle to assist a smooth stop, and stops the engine so precisely that it is in the best position for a quick, smooth restart.? BMW?s, umm, doesn?t.

So its worth noting that some carmakers are doing their homework, while others are counting on the idea that the teacher won?t check theirs based on their reputations as model students.? I checked and BMW gets an F for this one.? Time for them to head to study hall for some remedial work to make BMW = Chevy.

Gerrard leads Liverpool to 3-0 win over Everton

By STUART CONDIE

AP Sports Writer

Associated Press Sports

updated 9:33 p.m. ET March 13, 2012

LONDON (AP) -Steven Gerrard marked his 400th Premier League appearance with a hat trick on Tuesday, leading Liverpool to a 3-0 win over local rival Everton.

Gerrard opened the scoring in the 34th minute by curling a precise shot over three defenders and goalkeeper Tim Howard. The England midfielder then twice profited from good approach work by Luis Suarez, scoring in the 51st and in injury time.

Although a top-four place and Champions League qualification looks to be beyond Liverpool, the Reds are now five points clear of Everton and head into Sunday's FA Cup quarterfinal against Stoke in high spirits.

"To beat Everton is always special, so to get three goals is a little bit extra," Gerrard said. "It was a great term performance. Everything we wanted from the game, we got it."

Liverpool has already won the League Cup and secured a return to continental competition next season. It now looks set to finish above Everton for a seventh straight season.

Gerrard looked to have missed the opportunity for his opening goal when he failed to control a forward pass from Suarez.

The ball instead went to Martin Kelly, who forced Everton goalkeeper Tim Howard into a double save. A rebound from the second save rolled to the feet of Gerrard on the edge of the area, from where the England midfielder scored with his less-favored left foot into the middle of the goal just under the bar.

Kelly could have made it 2-0 shortly after but shot across goal and past the far post.

The second goal came when Suarez beat Sylvain Distin on the byline to wriggle into the area and Gerrard took the ball off his teammate's toes to score with a rising shot through a crowd of players.

Suarez then led a counterattack down the left and unselfishly opted to pass to the unmarked Gerrard for a straightforward finish from a central position.

"We need to find a level of consistency where we go on a winning streak, rather than win one and lose one, because otherwise we find ourselves in a position in the league that we don't want," Gerrard said.

In the second-tier League Championship, Reading moved up to second place with a 1-1 draw at Doncaster. Hull moved above Cardiff into the playoff places with a 3-0 win at the Welsh club, which lost last month's League Cup final to Liverpool in a shootout.

James Cameron to go into the deep for film and science

This month, filmmaker James Cameron plans to lead the second trip to the deepest place on Earth. He aims to collect samples for science, as well as video footage.

James Cameron plans to make a journey this month to the deepest place on Earth.

Skip to next paragraph

A five-mile-deep dive off of Papua New Guinea this week has already earned the director of?"Avatar" and "Titanic"?a new record for the deepest solo dive. But as a National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence, he now has his sights set on the bottom of the 7-mile deep Mariana Trench in the Pacific Ocean.

Built by Australians, the Deepsea Challenge submarine, fits just one person: James Cameron. "Cameron?s team describes it [the vehicle] as sharing qualities of both a race car and a torpedo," according to National Geographic.

If successful, his group will be the second to make it to the Challenger Deep, the deepest part of the Mariana Trench. The first group completed their trip in 1960. But the explorers, U.S. Navy lieutenant Don Walsh and Swiss scientist Jacques Piccard, were unable to take pictures because their landing stirred up too much sediment for them to see clearly.

What does it take to be a deep sea explorer?

Piccard's son, Bertrand Piccard, said his father, who died in 2008, passed on to him "a sense of curiosity, a desire to mistrust dogmas and common assumptions, a belief in free will, and confidence in the face of the unknown."

Going seven miles deep also requires lots of money, which in this case is coming from National Geographic and the Swiss watchmaker Rolex. Two other projects also aiming to explore the Challenger Deep. The Deep Flight Challenger is a project backed by Virgin Group chief Richard Branson. Another project called DOER Marine has received funding from Google executive Eric Schmidt. But it looks like Cameron will get there first.?

Unlike the Challenger Deep's first human visitors, Cameron plans to capture this part of the deep sea with 3D video footage. He also aims to collect samples from the ocean floor. National Geographic has already created a space on the web for Cameron to share his mission's findings, particularly targeting educators and students.
?
As Head of IUCN?s Global Marine Programme, Carl Gustaf Lundin puts it, ?80% of biodiversity is under water and yet we know more about the moon than the deep ocean.?? Exploration of this deep sea will most certainly broaden our understanding of life on Earth.

Although consumption takes a low proportion of GDP, consumption growth has been remaining at over 10%. In the past, consumption in China resents a fast and stable growth trend with the growth of GDP, and in the future it will continue to maintain such a situation. This is not only an important contribution to China's economy, but also an important contribution to the world economy. ?
