Porsche is adding more value to its lineup models, now that the 2015 Macan Turbo is going to hit the market. Porsche CEO Matthias Muller believes that the Macan is the best car in its lineup, with no competitors ahead. When talking about having no competitors, perhaps Matthias refered to the Macan`s unit under the
Volkswagen is announcing that there is still hope for a sporty character in their brand with this latest product they’re promising. After a lot of disappointment with models like the BlueSport and such, Volkswagen promise that by 2015 they will introduce a new Coupe. It will be somewhat related to the Golf hatchback but it
While we’re all dreaming of Bugatti Veyron convertibles and all sorts of luxury manufacturers are fighting for sales, Honda is the company to keep things real. Few might now it but Honda is truly special among Japanese car makers since their origin and history is not a clinical, corporate affair. The practice it cheers on
My petrolhead soul is torn. The simple idea of Volkswagen making a successor to the Phaeton, a high end luxury car with a chunky price really saddens me. It will almost likely be a commercial flop, just like the first generation was. It is such a shame that this is likely to happen. If you
There are a few classes of car that you can spot several miles away and know what they are. SUV’s are easy to pinpoint, supercars are easy to hate and estates look boring. Certain models even stand out on their own just because they’re so popular. While you’ll all be thinking of stuff like the
Germany’s most prestigious car maker just doesn’t want to be pleased at not coming fist when it comes to sales and business success. Mercedes have announced that will be pushing for more success as they will launch 11 new models and 19 upgrades for current ones by 2020. It’s a long term plan and we
The British car industry is currently going through a phase where they’re actually looking at modern ideas and starting to realize the was was over a long time ago. They’re competing with the Germans, they’re offering globally competitive products and they’ve even shaken off the awful old school image. Caterham on the other hand doesn’t
Ford is a company that’s had several very successful or even industry changing models over the years but the Mustang is the most memorable one of all. Which makes it kind of mandatory to feel a little amazed when you take a look at what the Blue Oval is telling us about the 2015 Mustang.
In preparation for the upcoming 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show the British at Land Rover just turned up with a very intreaguing concept they call the DC10. While there’s no future as a production car laid out, no encouraging name on the matter or any such things, it does seem to be a proper replacement for
Not that long ago, people used to make fun about how the British manufacturers forgot to stop making or update their cars. Most of those jokes have been wiped away by recent efforts but there’s one car that’s hardly ever changed since all the way back in 1983, it’s the Land Rover Defender of course.
With the Detroit Motor Show, we saw Audi’s 2012 A6 show us a very nice trick from up its sleeve. A hybrid version. It’s difficult to be the star of a show where Porsche unveiled the 918 Hybrid Racer, but the Audi A6 hybrid did attract a fair amount of attention.
Some French newspapers reported that Renault SA have set targets seriously high for electric vehicles production by 2015 as it plans to hit a figure above 200,000 per year. And to prove this isn’t just trash talk the French company announced that at least 150,000 of these will be the Renault Zoe.
Although technically sanctioned by Volvo, the SC90 concept, we see here, is the brainchild of Nouphone J. Bansasine while studying at the Volvo Monitoring and Concept Center. To be honest, it is not exactly Volvo-ish, in fact, if it didn’t have that massive badge on the front i’d forget about the V-shaped bonnet and think
Land Rover have announced they will be putting its first dedicated hybrid model into production in 2013 and the car will be based on the Range Rover Sport. The Range Rover Sport hybrid prototype (at the moment) in question is named Range_e and previews the diesel-electric hybrid power/drive train the rest of the world should be
Who was at the Geneva Motor Show this year and passed by the Ferrari stand (which means pretty much everybody) had a jaw drop moment as they saw Ferrari’s first attempt at being Green. Not necessarily because of any F1 car or a road car capable of making you faint in the corners but because
Chinese car maker Geely Automobile came to the Beijing Motor Show with a concept car entitled IG. Now they claim that the eventual production version of the IG is a contender for the title of world’s cheapest car.
