Honda to Develop New A-Hatchback?

Posted by Chris Published in Concept Cars, Honda, Industry

The thought of smaller but dependable cars comes to me more and more often. I’d hate to replace the car with a scooter but I wouldn’t hesitate to get a smaller car to get me around town and what not. Honda might be developing a new A-hatchback car for markets other than Japan. We don’t exactly have any hot details yet but the picture should do it so far. Rumors however are saying that the new model will sport a 1.4- to 1.5-liter turbodiesel engine which will get you 60 to 100 hp. Don’t worry folks, the full specs will surely leak sooner or later if Honda ever decides to get this project going.

Mercedes-Benz A-Class to Arrive in the USA?

Posted by Chris Published in Industry, Mercedes

How would you like to see a Mercedes-Benz A-Class to arrive in the USA? Keep your fingers crossed as this might just happen in the near future. Would Americans pick up an economy A-Class instead of their regular S-Class choice? The SLA concept in the picture here is an A-Class. Less seats and no top. That would definitely appeal to anyone. Mercedes-Benz is said to have conceived production plans for the American market but no significant decision has been made yet. What are they waiting for? Better economical times? They just might do that! We’ll just have to stick around and see what happens.
