Dutch Super Bus Concept Capable of 155 mph: Looks like Ridley Scott’s Alien 2008-03-06 23:58:00 This odd vehicle is a public transportation concept being developed by the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands, partly at the behest of the Dutch
government.alien-headhl.jpgThis highly streamlined Future Bus is aimed at providing convenient, and even personalized public transportation, at speeds that will rival Europe’s railway lines. The sleek profile and small frontal area of the bus concept are said to allow it to travel at up to 155 mph. One rather frightening drawback to the aggressive design however, is the uncanny resemblance it bears to the murderous extraterrestrials from Ridley Scott
’s Alien
movies.At nearly 50 feet long, and 8 feet wide, the Future Bus should have a seating capacity of up to 50 passengers. Those passengers will be able to use the bus in a sort Read more:Super

But, GM will have 16 hybrid models on the market by 2012, CEO Rick Wagoner told reporters at the Geneva Motor Show.The models will be powered by two different hybrid systems. One is designed for the rear-wheel and all-wheel-drive vehicles (Chevy Tahoe). The other is for the front-wheel-drive vehicles (Saturn Vue).Wagoner said that GM plans to introduce one hybrid model, on average, every four months until 2012. GM currently offers four hybrid models – the Chevy Tahoe, Chevy Malibu, Saturn Vue, and Saturn Aura.source Read more:Hybrids
Fiat To Build Alfas In China? 2008-03-06 23:44:00 Will China
soon have domestically-produced Alfa Romeos? That’s the story according to Ward’s Auto, which cites a “well-placed” source. Apparently, parent company Fiat SpA is almost ready to sign on the dotted line with Nanjing and Chery to assemble the Italian cars in the world’s fastest-growing automobile market.Fiat is apparently hoping to have Chery assemble the cars, but it already has a joint-venture agreement with Nanjing, which is slowing negotiations. If the deal with Chery is to go through, Fiat will likely have to divest its 50-percent stake in the existing JV partnership with Nanjing, a move which could happen soon.Fiat hopes that it can begin producing some 30,000-35,000 Chinese Alfas in 2009 (startin with its 159 sedan), with the eventual possibility of exporting to Read more:Build

Tune Up your Car Insurance as Well as your Car 2008-02-27 22:46:00 If you’re a motoring enthusiast, a new piece of kit for your much-loved vehicle is difficult to resist – however, unless you’re careful it could invalidate your car insurance claims.In January this year, Ford’s RS tuning firm announced it had teamed up with Mountune Performance to offer two new exciting pieces of kit for the Fiesta ST.The Stage 1 kit (priced at £1,435 plus fitting) includes an engine tweak to produce 162bhp, a new air-induction and exhaust. Stage 2 meanwhile (priced at £1,838 plus fitting) includes the same upgrades but takes the power to 182bhp and includes new camshafts and valve springs.The only downside is that on top of the price for the kit, these optional extras could bump up the price of your car insurance.Your chances of gaining cheap car insurance if yo
All-new Mazda6 and Mazda3 MPS Extreme 2008-02-26 14:12:00 Proudly taking centre stage at the Mazda
stand this year was the all-new Mazda6 mid-sized sedan.The new Mazda6 is the second Mazda new generation product to evolve to the next stage, further deepening the emotional connection between man and machine - Mazda calls it "Kizuna"Mazda Australia also sprung a massive surprise by unveiling a concept version of the Mazda3 MPS hot-hatch in the form of the Mazda3 MPS Extreme
.Tuned in-house by Mazda's Australia Motorsport manager Allan Horsley, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) has been re-programmed to increase the 2.3-litre DISI turbo engine's power to 210 kW at 5300 rpm and 425 Nm of torque at 4400 rpm. The Mazda3 MPS Extreme is equipped with a free-flowing two-inch exhaust system, a sports muffler and a 25 mm lower suspension tun
2009 Maserati GranTurismo S unveiled 2008-02-26 14:00:00 Maserati has officially revealed its performance-oriented GranTurismo
S, following the leak of two images online. The GranTurismo debuted a year earlier at the European show, so it seems fitting this sportier variant will break cover at the same venue.The GranTurismo S is powered by a 4.7 liter V8 in place of the regular GT's 4.2 liter unit. Output is 440 horsepower — a nice boost from the standard 405 horses.An advanced MC-Shift dual-clutch transmission will replace the ZF six-speed automatic.New high-power Brembo brakes will improve stopping distance. The system features front brake discs made with dual-cast technology — a dual casting of cast iron and aluminum, paired with aluminum mono-bloc 6-piston brake calipersThe exterior has some subtle visual enhancements, and the interior is Read more:Maserati

AIMS: Hyundai Veloster Concept 2008-02-26 13:34:00 Making its debut at the Seoul Motor Show back in April this year, the Hyundai
Veloster Concept
made its way down under for the Australian International Motor Show in Sydney.Styled at Hyundai's Design and Technical Center at Namyang, the Veloster (codenamed HND-3) coupe is the third in a series of daring concept cars to be developed by the central styling studio in Korea. The Veloster name, a compound of velocity and roadster evokes the sporty characteristics of a classic two-plus-two. A panoramic glass roof and other futuristic styling cues help project a high-tech image. Designed to cater to the tastes of the Y-generation, Veloster combines simple, iconic design with good value and robust construction.Technical Specifications:Veloster / HND-3Length: 4,100Width: 1,790Height: 1,450W
Toyota RAV4 2008-02-26 12:26:00 With as many soccer moms as you see driving tank-like SUVs down the road, you’d think picking a girl-SUV would have been easier than I found it to be. Since Marge Simpson’s Canyonero isn’t a real car, I picked the small SUV that I’ve never known to have been bought by a guy for himself (including the one I looked to buy - not for myself): The Toyota
RAV4. Just look at it. If it were smaller, you could totally picture it in a woman’s closet, couldn’t you?
Mazda Miata 2008-02-26 12:23:00 When the Mazda
Miata was introduced in 1989 as a 1990 model, it was meant to herald the second coming of convertible sports cars that were small, handled great, and were sparse on conveniences. Sports car guys were giddy, especially the editors at car magazines like Car and Driver and Road and Track, who saw the Miata as a return to cars like the Lotus Elan and the MGB of the mid 1900s. Unfortunately, they were really cute and affordable and became the epitome of a top-down-at-the-mall girl car. The Miata is pretty far down the list due to a seriously fanatic group of supporters at places like Miata.net, a pretty hardcore racing series, and the awesomely badass Monster Miata conversions.
Ford Mustang 2008-02-26 12:17:00 Despite what it looks like, this is not an Aston Martin V12 Vanquish. Instead, it’s a Ford Mustang
with one of the best body replica kits I’ve ever seen. Made by Exclusive Motor Cars, the replication process includes stretching the wheelbase, widening the track, lowering the ride height, adding 34 extra body panels to the outside, custom upholstering the inside, and then adding the small details like the lights, emblems and grills to get things just right. What you’re left with after all of that is over is a car that is almost indistinguishable from the real thing. (Except for the price.) They even include a Spy Package that adds on grille-mounted rocket launchers and hood-mounted machine guns for extra fun. (Apparently, “Even the original James Bond car from Die Another Day was e
Hummer’s HX looks like a winner 2008-02-26 12:15:00 The Hummer
HX concept is one truck that I would love to see make it to the showroom floor without getting smoothed over by the penny pinchers at GM. Designed to be a Jeep Wrangler competitor, the HX features a 3.6-liter SIDI E85 FlexFuel engine, four wheel drive, a six-speed automatic transmission, and a modular roof that can be opened convertible style. Considering the fact that the styling isn’t too far off when compared to the current H2 and H3, I can only hope that this is a nearly-there preview of the H4 to come. Read more:winner
KITT this a Mustang 2008-02-26 12:13:00 It’s official: The car that will play KITT in the upcoming Knight Rider series is going to be a Shelby Mustang
GT500KR, complete with a wing kit, blackout treatment, and the dancing red grill lights.
Dodge’s Challenger SRT-8 is no slouch 2008-02-26 12:05:00 The new DodgeChallenger
is the heavy artillery of the modern muscle car war. It’s big, it’s powerful, it’s only offered in the high-performance SRT-8 trim level, and you can have it in any color you want, as long as it’s Hemi orange, silver, or black. Unfortunately, the interior suffers from a severe case of rental-car-itis, but when it’ll do this all day: Who’s really going to look closely at the seats anyways? For a full rundown, driving impressions, and big, bold and beautiful pics, check out Motive’s coverage of the new beast.
Fuel Girls are doing the Gumball 3000 2008-02-26 11:29:00 Apparently a few of the Fuel Girls
(The automotive world’s SuicideGirls) are going to accompany Team Fuel and their Mansory tuned Bentley Continental GT during this year’s Gumball 3000. Though I’m assuming they’re there to entertain everyone, a disastrous distraction is what will most likely occur as other drivers do anything they can to keep up with the hottie filled flier.

Lexus LF-A hybrid supercar picture gallery 2008-03-12 05:43:00 launched at 2007 Tokyo Motor Show We got to see the Lexus
LF-A concept at the 2005 Detroit Auto Show. And catch a few eyes it definitely did. The new design philosophy visible in the LF-A was called L-Finesse by Lexus. While the initial information was that it would be a V8 powering this supercar
, the latest rumors are that the LF-A would be powered by a hybrid engine. The V8 would be there, but there would be an electric motor too - and the specifications for that is not available yet. The V8 would be a 5 litre engine producing 435 bhp. The power distribution and how big a role the electric motor would play is unknown yet. Well, a hybrid supercar is in some ways a little late to the party - especially when an all-electric
Tata Nano Super Cheap Cars 2009 2008-03-10 13:53:00 The people’s car is super-cheap, super-tiny, and super-efficient. Nestled among the fast and luxurious debuts at the 2008 Geneva auto show is the $2500 Nano show car from India’s Tata Motors. This so-called people’s car caused quite a stir when it was unveiled in India in January as a car for its domestic market. Although it seats four, the Nano is a paltry 122 inches long—three feet shorter than a Honda Fit and six inches narrower. To maximize space, the wheels are located at the far corners of the car, and the engine is mounted under the rear seat. Despite its small size, Tata says the car is safe—based on Indian crash-testing results—with crumple zones, anti-intrusion door beams, and seatbelts. But there are no airbags in the first-generation Nano, and some reports say ther Read more:Super
