There’s a lot of worry floating around the future of the French car makers, and Peugeot in particular who’ve recently had an unpleasant episode involving the CAC 40 index. For a couple of years now however, we keep hearing about the way they’d all be creating a set of more luxurious products and move at
Us petrolheads, nostalgia addicts or simply aging folks still keep on hoping that Bentley will never turn the EXP 9F into a production model. The truth is that as much as we hope, it’s the actual customers that will make the decision alongside Bentley and odds are stacking up against us. There’s word that Bentley
Got a bit of a petrolhead memory? In that case you’ll certainly remember the Audi Quattro Concept the Germans introduced back in 2010. Since then, we’ve heard countless rumors about it back then and there have been even more since. Audi didn’t really help the situation with their press releases. It went from concept, to
Though most of the world is still shaken up by economic and financial worries, Great Britain seems to be doing better than expected. If not the entire country, the infamous county of Cheshire seems to be better than ever. Not only are they interested in the Bentley EXP F9 but they could soon get this
It seems the Swedish at Volvo are starting to let their hair down. Somewhat. They’re sticking to familiar territory but they’re planing to install a flamethrower in the kitchen. Why? Who cares, that sounds as fun as it sounds dangerous. I’m not talking non-sense either, it seems that Volvo is actually interested in sending the
Sure there are problems with economy in most part of the worlds and yes the price of oil these days seems to be aimed at supercar buyers only but it doesn’t matter. Luxury brands are still selling big and those that are falling behind in the race are actually thinking about stepping up. On such
When we first heard about the Volvo S60 Polestar Concept we were thrilled at the idea. Once the details came in we had our doubts. The announcement of it being the Swedish company’s attempt at rivaling the M3 gave us the impression that somebody at Volvo was aiming really high. The M3 is definitely the
Could General Motors be readying a surprise? According to some very loose mouthed trademark patent operator, Buick’s Riviera is once again on the books. It’s been a while since we’ve heard anything to do with the Riviera. Last we saw of it was 2007, but even then it was a concept that seemed like the
A little overlooked but certainly not important, the Peugeot Urban Crossover was unveiled at the Beijing Motor Show this past week. It’s one of the rather unusual small crossovers that seem to take a stab at the Nissan Juke but never really get down to business. What we didn’t really know about the Peugeot Urban
Now here’s a surprise. Without word or warning, the Japanese at Honda have come to meet the other important Asian people of the automotive industry with a new car. The Honda Concept C is not a real car, but it’s here to show us just what one of the future sedans in the company’s lineup
One of the latest concepts from Mini to be unveiled, the Breadvan Clubvan mini delivery van is reportedly headed for production. Let’s hope that this is the sort of announcement the British brand doesn’t make the same sort of progress with turning this concept into reality as they did with the Rocketman. The miniature… Mini,
It had been whispered about. There were even those who claimed it was true. To most of us however, it was nothing other than a myth designed to take our minds off more important stuff. Now however, the myth comes to life as Citroen preview the DS9 luxury flagship in preparation for this month’s Beijing
Lexus, Toyota’s luxury division, maker of some of the most reliable cars out there and quite the contender to the luxury segment. Unfortunately, they’re also the makers of some of the most boring cars ever made and even though they made the Lexus LFA it didn’t change anybody’s impression of the brand. The latest news
Among the superstars and high performance models of the Geneva Motor Show a few peculiarities have managed to sneak through. One such example is the Toyota FT-Bh. Toyota’s FT-Bh is a concept meant to once again showoff just how much the Japanese cares about the environment and what they’re capable of doing for it. It
As the final steps towards the Geneva Motor Show are made, more and more manufacturers are releasing their… less than interesting cars now to grab some of the media overflow. The Spanish at Seat have done the same with a new concept. It’s not that much of a concept since it’s basically the upcoming Seat
The best concept Mazda has created recently and the only one suggesting what a future generation of the 6 might look like will soon be shipped to the old continent. In order to make an European debut, the Mazda Takeri concept will get a chance to show-off during the upcoming Geneva Motor Show next month.
The Koreans at Kia managed to slightly steal the show at the Chicago Motor Show with their Track’Ster concept but for all the fun of it there were plenty of question marks around. Thankfully, the guys over at Autoblog have gotten together with Kia’s PR team and Peter Schreyer, chief of design, and sorted out
The Japanese have made up their minds; the next version of the Mitsubishi Outlander is going to be unveiled at this March’s Geneva Motor Show. Before that happens though, they’ve given us a decent photo of it so we know what it would look like and part of a press release on what we’ll learn
Another of the Chicago Motor Show big attractions came from Kia and it is what they’ve been teasing us with for a while now. I’m talking of course, about the Track’ster Concept. Essentially, we’re looking at a Kia Soul with less seats, considerably more power, a manual gearbox and all wheel drive to put it
The Geneva Motor Show is still over a month away but Nissan seems to be in a hurry to preview what’s going to be showcased at their stand. It’s a new concept, it’s called the Nissan Invitation and it’s basically a new small hatchback that will eventually find its way into production. The latter is
