      iPhone integrated Concept Car (Land Rover LRX)
      We have already seen that the best and easiest way to market your product in today’s industry would be to relate it to the Apple wonder phone i.e. the Apple iPhone somehow and then wait for the word to spread around the globe. Land Rover has very cleverly done the same in the Land Rover LRX concept car. Land Rover LRX is a new concept car (that probably won’t ever see the production line) but will definitely boast something (a full-fledge iPhone integration) that is bound to attract a lot of people. It is hard to say whether the car will only have an iPhone slot or whether the iPhone will be electronically connected to the car thus controlling all its functions but if ever there is to be an iPhone integrated car it wouldn’t be so much amazing unless the luxurious car is fully controlled through the iPhone (which is more than just an ideal approach right now) Courtesy: IntoMobile Related Posts8 Most Stylish iPhone Concept DesignsGoogle Phone (G-Phone) Concept Desig

      Audi confirms 'stunning' concept car for Detroit
      Audi will be using the upcoming North American International Auto Show in Detroit to show off a ‘stunning’ new concept car. The German luxury brand also plans to have a world premiere of a new model. Both these cars will be unveiled during Audi’s press conference at the show, which will be broadcast worldwide. While Audi has provided no indication as to what each car will be, it is believed that the concept will be based on the R8. According to our previous report, Audi expects to release a V10-powered R8 (possibly known as the RS8) around September next year, and a preview of this would certainly help in allocating quite a few cars before they’ve even gotten off the production line. However with a R8 convertible set for 2009, it could be either one. As for the other car, a facelifted A3 is due to be available in June 2008, making it most likely that this will be Audi’s world premiere model. Source: motorauthority.com博动生活 心动乌镇 BlogBusä

      Toyota Hi-CT Concept Car
      The Toyota Hi-CT is a city car concept which had been revealed at the previous 2007 Tokyo Motor Show. In Toyota’s words the Hi-CT concept is designed to deliver a new “coolness” inspired by “the thinking and lifestyles of youth”. For a small car the styling of the Toyota Hi-CT is chunky and bold. The high sides and short windows exaggerate the truck-like design. At the rear of the Toyota Hi-CT concept there is a removable trunk and a deck where surfboards, bicycles and other equipment can be stowed. Powered by a hybrid drivetrain, the funky Toyota Hi-CT uses a 1.5 liter engine and an electric motor. The under-floor mounted battery can be recharged from the mains. The location of the battery has the effect of raising the drivers position giving better visibility, while also lowering the vehicles center of gravity. The Hi-CT is also fitted with an 100V socket which allows power from the battery to be used for any electrical device.

      Nissan expects concept car will attract computer kids
      Nissan, one of the top Japanese car makers, has taken a futuristic all-electric mini car to the recently concluded Frankfurt Motor Show as it hopes that it will appeal to the future drivers. The Japanese car maker said that the Mixim, with a hatchback design, rakish styling, and gull-wing doors should attract gamers and other young people who spend more of their time on computers than thinking about cars. The Mixim is also a way to show that electric cars do not have to be boring. The MIxim has an unusual setting as it has a 3+1 seating arrangement and so this svelte coupe puts the driver right up in the front of a cabin that’s fronted by a wrap-around windscreen, which aims to reflect the shape of a helmet visor. The dashboard and controls are also designed to be familiar to gamers. Nissan has also equipped this electric car with some of its Nissan parts like its newly-developed “Super Motor” electric generator/motor rated at 82 horsepower to make its performance more appealing

      Haven’t really seen a lot of Opal lately, but their latest automobile, known as the Flextreme Mini MiniVan Concept is turning heads for it’s out of the box thinking. First, there’s the hybrid powerplant, which by itself isn’t very groundbreaking, in fact, it’s all the rage. It’s similar to the Chevy Volt, and at least the European model charges the batteries with a small diesel motor rather than gasoline. It’s round trip range on one charge of the lithium-ion batteries is about 62 miles, with the diesel motor engaging to recharge them.However, when used together with the diesel motor, the mileage skyrockets to just short of 500 and makes for about 53kW of power. That at least makes for less frequent charges. It would be a drag if you had to go the gas station 3 or 4 times a day, which has always been the drawback with a purely electrical concept.The fossil-fuel motor is a 1.3L turbodiesel with intercooler and runs between 1,500rpm and 1,800rpm.

      Peugeot 308 RC Z Concept Car: The car you’ll never have.
      Ok well ever since Audi slapped every single automotive company in the face with the TT, companies having been shitting bricks trying to even remotely create something as classic as the TT (the only car in the New York Metropolitan museum) and all have failed. And while at times some have come close (350z. BMW Z4 coupe to name a few) most have come to terrible shortcomings. So somewhere in the UK Peugeot has tried their hand at bat, and sad to say have fouled out. This is their new 308 RC Z concept, and it stinks as the illegitimate offspring of a Nissan 350 and an Audi TT. Blatantly stealing the silhouette of the Audi with an attempt at aggressive contemporary styling hence the Z genealogy. The contemporary styling and meticulous execution quite certainly deserve applause. But the end of the day it may be only emotion invoking, and on closer inspection I have to only to say Bleech.

      VW GTI W12 650 Concept Car
      The VW GTI W12 650 concept car is powered by a 6.0L bi-turbo W12 that pumps out 650hp and 530 lb-ft of torque, mated to a 6-speed automatic, with an estimated top speed of 201mph and a 0-62mph in around 3.7 seconds. Lower and wider than a stock GTI, the body retains the production car's doors, hood and lights, but otherwise it's all new. A number of intakes and a redesigned C-pillar help feed air to the 12-cylinder behemoth supplying the go-power. To keep the car planted to the tarmac, VW didn't want to use a massive spoiler to generate down force. As such, the car's carbon-fiber roof acts as a giant diffuser that funnels air under the small spoiler at its trailing edge. In summary, the whole thing is a big exercise in the awesome. The interior is Alcantara leather and fire extinguishers are integrated into the glove compartment. Don’t expect to see this for sale in a showroom near you or on the street driven by a 'boy racer'; as this is purely a show car!!!Source: Techeblog vi
