Don’t look now but Lamborghini is planning to invade the luxury car industry or as reports would have it. The funny thing is that I have always looked up to the Lambo as a luxury car in itself, though on a different level. And if the Italian car manufacturer’s intent is for real, expect the big leap to give Porsche and Aston Martin to be in for some good competition for their concept luxury cars.

What will the luxury Lambo have to offer? Well here are some of the things to watch out. The luxury model will be equipped with an all wheel-drive transmission and a V10 engine. It will come in a four-door sedan based on the Estoque concept. On whether the rumor is for real or not, the idea is not far-fetched.

Here is a vehicle that business sectors are sure to find handy. Kubota adds a transformable four-passenger model to its popular 4-wheel drive utility vehicle lineup with the new RTV1140CPX.

This innovative RTV features a transformation system that quickly converts from one-to-two-row seating options, allowing the operator to choose between additional passenger capacity or best-in-class cargo space, depending on the task at hand. The innovative rail system is mounted on the OSHA-compliant roll-over protection structure (ROPS) to allow easy and seamless transitions when converting from the one-to-two row seating options.

“The RTV1140CPX provides exceptional comfort and safety accommodating four adults, as well as unmatched cargo configurations, capacity and convenience,” says Dan Muramoto, product manager for Kubota. “The RTV1140CPX is much anticipated and has exceptionally broad appeal, from ranchers and farmers to property owners, facility managers and outdoorsmen; this new utility vehicle is a unique solution for a wide variety of applications.”

In an act of charity, Subaru of America has donated a brand new 2009 Subaru Outback Special Edition to the Ronald McDonald House (RMH) of Southern New Jersey, located in Camden. The All-Wheel Drive Outback, valued at approximately $26,000, will be used to transport RMH families of children being treated for critical illnesses or traumatic injuries. The vehicle will also be used by RMH staff to support day-to-day operations of Ronald McDonald House.

This donation continues a long relationship between Subaru of America and Ronald McDonald House of Southern New Jersey. In 1998, Subaru of America donated a vehicle to RMH as part of Subaru’s 30th Anniversary initiative, “30 Cars for 30 Causes.”

RMH also received a grant from Subaru of America Foundation to enhance the computer equipment and capabilities available to the families that stay there, primarily so that siblings can keep up with school work.

In addition, for the past two years, a group of Subaru employees have volunteered at RMH as part of Subaru’s annual Martin Luther King Day of Service activities.
