Peugeot is building a brand new sport scar, yes, you read it correctly. Personally I didn’t expect this at all. Peugeot and sports car, is that a combination? Well after seeing the images, I think it is.
The specs are even great too! Who could think about that?! (more…)

Merecedes Fascination Coupé in Paris

The shooting brake-style Concept Fascination coupe predicts sportiness and practicality, with its munificently-sized load-bay.

It’s founded on the next-generation E-Class platform, and trailers the new-look face of Mercedes, with its remolded headlights and fiber-optic daytime running lights.
Its ultra-luxurious cabin is equipped with deep-pile carpets, lavish leather covering, wood finish, and aluminium and chrome trimmings and also includes a super-baling pop-up, fold-out smoked glass table housing a refrigerated compartment for drinks, champagne flutes and a cigar humidor.

This perception points to the titling of the next-generation E-Class, and also clues at a new type of CE-Class coupe. The 204bhp, four-cylinder 2.2-litre diesel engine will feature in the approaching E-Class range.

Insight Concept of Honda at Paris 2008

Honda will renew the Insight name, but this most recent model will be more practical than the original two-seat Insight.

The proposal is to make this a true challenger for the Toyota Prius. It’s an appropriate small family-sized five-door, five-seater, with cabin space uncompromised by its battery pack, which is put on underneath the boot.
The new, protuberant-bodied Insight looks a lot like Honda’s FCX Clarity fuel cell car, and even though it’s not much of a looker it does have one very alluring selling point – it’s going to be priced ‘extensively lower than any other hybrid car on the market,’ says Honda, which hopes to sell 200,000 a year.
