Big, blocky, heavy, low - whatever. The one and only phrase you need to remember is “hellaciously fast.” Bentley’s Continental Flying Spur Speed, officially announced in June, is pretty much what it’d be like to strap an EMD powertrain from a freight locomotive into a car, without all the noise and industrial fumes.

Unlike other recent international motor shows, the exhibitors at the Busan show seem to be focusing on luxury vehicles more than the environment.

Do you like this gallery?... Look the others Motor Show Girls!Source: repubblica.itLe "veline" scaldano il Motor ShowQuella spruzzata di erotismo non poteva passare inosservata nella città che non ha digerito i falli di cioccolata intitolati a Rocco Siffredi, poi sequestrati dai vigili urbani al recente Ciocco Show per ordine dell´assessore Maria Cristina Santandrea. Stavolta la responsabile del Commercio non aveva titoli per bloccare il "car wash" al Motor Show, lo spettacolo di avvenenti veline col pubblico protagonista, ma ha dichiarato comunque: «Basta col becero».E il dibattito politico su donne e motori ha tenuto banco sulle agenzie di stampa fino alla nota di condanna della Curia. Di che si parla? In fiera ragazze in minigonna e push up fingendo di lavare una fuoriserie coinvolgono il pubblico, bagnando docili volontari, tra ammiccamenti e doppi sensi. Tutto finito sul sito dei video You tube, dove, va detto, si assiste a scenette ben peggiori. Polemica immancabile

Suzuki was obviously trying to tap into the So. Cal. culture of the LA Auto Show when it tasked Andry Specialty Vehicles to create the SX4-based Makai concept. After lopping off the roof, shaving the door handles and adding a NACA-like duct in the hood, they sprayed down the sedan in orange paint and accented it with the silver rollover hoop that provides another mounting point to attach a set of surfboards. LED running lights add some subtle flavor and 19-inch CEC wheels fill the widened wheel arches that frame four-wheel disc brakes with Rotora calipers. Although the exterior appointments are cool enough, our favorite feature is inside. Instead of fitting the concept seats – normally an ergonomic disaster – it looks like Suzuki made a trek to their corporate pool, plucked the chairs from around the frosted glass table and welded them inside. The results are equal parts style and functionality that give soaking surfers a place to rest without mucking up the standard cloth seats. I

The new Tiguan cute-ute factored big into Volkswagen's press conference at this year's LA show. And no wonder, as Vee-Dub is hoping its new small sport-ute sells big, especially in the all-important US market, and especially in California where nobody needs a truck yet everybody has one (and parks it next to their Prius).Volkswagen of America revealed that Tiguan is priced to sell with a starting MSRP of just $22,490. With just two sport-utes in its lineup, that gives VW a huge price-point spread that stretches all the way up to $68,320 for the bigger Touareg 2 with the jumbo-jet-pulling V10 TDI.Volkswagen is evidently hoping that the Tiguan will become the Golf of the sport-ute market after it hits US dealers this coming summer. Check out our gallery of the US-spec Tiguan below, and VW's official press release after the jump. [Source: Volkswagen]More abo

We’ve berated the styling of the Lexus IS-F at length, but throw the Southern California team over at FiveAxis into the mix and we’re ready to drive it out the front doors of the LA Auto Show. The combination of a custom six-inch wide body kit, Satin Black Pearl Paint and Satin Bronze accents make this IS-F a sports sedan we’d be happy to roll in. The installation of FiveAxis’ own custom 20-inch wheels (20×8.5 in front and 20×10.5 out back), swathed in the same bronze hue as the ducting, diffusers and exhausts, ties everything together, and the lowered ride height provided by the Tein adjustable coilovers brings it all down to earth, literally. Performance is aided by a custom exhaust system and what FiveAxis is calling a “Stage 2″ engine package. What that means is beyond us, but we’re sure it’s got potential. Slowing those undefined extra horses is a set of Brembos at all four corners: 380 mm discs with six-piston calipers u

Despite the rumors, Audi didn’t show off its X3-fighter here in LA. Instead, the quad-ringed quattro folks pulled the curtains on a drop-top version of the Cross Coupe Quattro concept it originally debuted in Shanghai. Designed by the automaker’s studio in Santa Monica, CA, Audi maintains that the Cross Cabriolet Quattro concept is distinctly American in its styling, with a jacked up ride height, elongated wheelbase and retractable soft-top. As mentioned previously, power comes courtesy of a diesel mill putting 240 HP and 369 lb.-ft. of torque through all four wheels. Audi says the Cross Coupe will make it to 60 in 7.2-seconds, and if you tap the “Drive Select” option, fuel economy is boosted by an additional ten-percent. While both the presentation and styling of the concept left us cold, some of the interior appointments piqued our curiosity. The MMI infotainment system combines traditional GPS functionality with Google Earth, to provide a real-time rendering

After GM's introduction of three compact cars at the 2007 New York Auto Show - the Beat, Groove, and Trax - they left it up to the public to decide which one would be produced. Well, more than 1.8 million people worldwide voted on GM's online survey, and one has beaten down the competition. At the 2007 LA Auto Show, Bob Lutz announced that a vehicle based on the Chevy Beat concept will go into global production outside the North America in mid-2009. Production will begin in South Korea where the car was originally created at GM's design studio in Bupyeong. GM is still undecided as to whether the Beat will be eventually sold in the United States.

Volkswagen's Up! concept after shown on 2007 Frankfurt Auto Show earlier this week, is coming to the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show and 2007 Los Angeles Auto Show (LA Motor Show ).Martin Winterkorn, head of Volkswagen, admitted the Volkswagen V-Dub Up! was likely to see production in a few years. We like the sound of VW heading back to its rear-engined roots, and look forward to seeing how the company does with it.Winterkorn also says VW will have variations of the platform to show off at both the Tokyo Motor Show 2007 next month and, in November, at the Los Angeles Auto Show 2007. What those might be, he didn't get into. Sedan? Wagon? Convertible? Hybrid? We'll know for sure within just a few weeks.And if that's not enough good news for Up! fans, he also hinted at a possible fourth variation. No date was given for that car's intro, butDetroit Auto Show 2008 in January would be a good guess.Recent Posts of Global Auto/Motor Show:+ 2007 Tokyo Motor Show Cars: Mazda's Rotary Coupe Concept+

The world seems pretty engrossed with the Frankfurt auto show right now, so much so that another major international auto show has been completely overshadowed. The 2007 Tokyo Motor Show, which is set to go on in less than a month will see the introduction of many new and important concepts and models that will predict what’ll be on the roads of the future. So, let’s take a break from Germany and have a look at what Mitsubishi will be showing off to its home market. The first big introduction will be the Concept-ZT. It’s a striking looking sedan that takes inspiration from the Lancer sports sedan, a car that is really helping to give the brand a true, defined image. At 194.9 inches long, with a wheelbase of 110.8 inches, the ZT is quite a large car, which might be a hint that this could be the replacement to the Galant, or perhaps even the introduction of a new large sedan that would take the spot of the defunct Diamante.   The Mitsubishi ZT is powered by a brand ne

Mercedes will debut F700 with DiesOtto engine at the Frankfurt Motor Show Mercedes is bringing the green to the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show with their new sedan concept car, the F700. Remember that DiesOtto engine that we told you about a while back? It's making its debut in this new luxury sedan. To refresh your memory, that engine produces 238hp and 295ft-lb. of torque from just 1.8 liters of displacement using some new technology known to many as homogeneous charge compression ignition, or HCCI, which "operates in compression ignition mode under light loads and spark ignition at other times" according to our own Sam Abuelsamid. The fuel mileage of the car with the DiesOtto engine is expected to be almost 40 miles per gallon, which is excellent for such a large vehicle. The new F700 concept is just one of 18 vehicles that Mercedes is expected to showcase, including new Bluetec diesels and hybrids with both gasoline and diesel engines.

The Hyundai Motor Corporation is to show off the green car as the i-Blue Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle will be Unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show on the 13th September. It is not just the big automakers who are looking for a greener alternative as Hyundai show their commitment for the development to environmentally friendly vehicles. The i-Blue Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle is hydrogen-powered and forms part of the zero-emission concept of vehicles which is to incorporate the third-generation of Hyundai’s fuel cell technology. The i-Blue is a step forward with the commercialization of Hyundai fuel cell vehicles, as they used to be on the SUV platform but is now to be featured on a CUV. Hyundai are very proud of the new i-Blue as it is their first vehicle with fuel cell technology that has been designed from the ground up. Although the design is more compact, Hyundai have still made the i-Blue both comfortable and safe. Source Written by Peter for Product ReviewsIn Sections: CUV, Gre
