Remember the HYmotion4 hybrid technology we’ve seen in a couple of Peugeots at the Paris Motor Show? They were the Peugeot RC and the Prologue. Besides those the Citroen Hypnos and C4 WRC share the same technology and it’s the C4 WRC we’re going to talk about today.
The C4 WRC is a hybrid race car [...]

We have an Opel ready to show you. It’s the Insignia ecoFLEX which was reveled at the 2008 Paris Motor Show. And it’s said to be an ecofriendly car.
The ecoFLEX will probably have a 2.0 CDTI ECOTEC engine which will get you some 118kW and 350Nm of torque. The overboost will get you 30 [...]

Looking for something spicy from the Paris Motor Show? Well you should check out the Venturi Voltage.
It’s a concept car designed by Sacha Lakic and not only does it look good but it’s quite interesting too. Each wheel has 2 electric motors. One drives the wheel while the other one handles the suspension. The [...]

We are already used to Renault bringing in a Megane version after another. It’s time to check out the third edition which presented itself neatly at the 2008 Paris Motor Show.
There are two models available and Renault made sure both of them got enough room in Paris so their local potential customers will get [...]

We’ve seen some very interesting concept cars present at the 2008 Paris Motor Show and we have even more coming up. Today we’re taking a look at the new Toyota Avensis. Sure it might not be as interesting as the Estoque from Lamborghini or the Cirtroen GT but it’s surely a dependable car.
The new Avensis [...]

We’ve seen the new 2009 Lexus IS 250C but we were left wanting for more. The shots we came up with showed a convertible car that wasn’t looking like one at all. Well now we have the video above which shows us exactly how to fold the top. We imagined a button would do such [...]

Just like the Prologue we’ve seen before the Peugeot RC HYmotion4 is a hybrid concept using a new system. The new hybrid motor has no mechanical connection between the electric motor and the internal combustion engine.
The RC comes with a 1.6 liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine placed in the back. It pumps some 218 horsepower and [...]

We couldn’t overlook the GT made by Citroen. We’ve gone through the teasers and we were waiting to seen how this beauty will look in live pictures. If I was to choose between the GT and the Estoque, I think I’d go for the French supercar here. It has a certain je-ne-sais-quoi to it.
It [...]

As long as there are girls around the car that means the photo was actually taken on location in Paris at the Motor Show. So that’s how the displayed Estoque looks like. No more teasers, no more photoshopped pictures or official video releases.
The Estoque is live in Paris as we speak so if you’re there [...]

Every motor show brings out some weird concepts. In Paris we have a Nissan Nuvu concept car which is right down ugly. Is it just me or the car looks really weird. I’ll buy a Mini right this second if this is the future of small cars.
The Nuvu will have an electric drivetrain, 2+1=3 [...]

Audi A1 Sportback concept is a car which should probably have been seen at the Paris Motor Show but luckily for you and me details about it have started to surface a day before.
The A1 seems to be shorter than the A3 and it could prove to be some tough competition for the MINI Cooper. [...]

Too tell you the truth I was feeling kind of anxious to see the Lamborghini Estoque already. I am not going to be present at the Paris Motor Show to see it in person but I certainly was waiting for the big picture.
We had enough teaser photos and photoshopped versions of this Lamborghini. Now [...]

Paris is almost around the corner and we’re looking forward to see all the new releases. Two interesting cars I am particularly going to look for are the Lamborghini Estoque or Urus and the Citroen GT. We’ve been following their teasers and we definitely need to see more.

By now you should already be aware about Lamborghini’s teaser campaign. We’ve seen every picture released and we are waiting for the full unveiling which will take place in Paris. This concept car was supposedly going to be called Urus. That’s what we heard earlier this week. It looks like the name will not be [...]

There are lots of Italian cars as there are lots of Italian cars that we hate. Alfa Romeo fits in the first category. And since the Paris show is a week away, you might be interested in Alfa Romeo’s stand. There you can find the Brera. From what it looks like I can already say [...]
