Easily one of the most dramatic vehicle unveilings at this week’s 2010 Paris Auto Show, the all-new 2010 BMW Concept 6-Series Coupe has made its official world debut and gives us a near-perfect preview of the design that will eventually feature on the upcoming 2012 BMW 6-Series Coupe. The latest concept, meanwhile, shows the […]
Of all this year’s A-list auto shows, the Paris show opening this week is the lucky one. The grey mood at recent shows in Frankfurt, Detroit, and Geneva broke at the Paris Expo, with a herd of electric supercars leading the charge. Two years ago, the raw display of power and advanced technology on […]
Jaguar’s C-X75 concept car, designed to celebrate the marque’s 75th anniversary and unveiled today at the 2010 Paris Auto Show, is nothing if not a striking design. And its technology is equally as stunning: it’s an extended-range electric car with 68 miles of range on a lithium-ion battery pack. Housed under the deck behind […]
BMW outlined the U.S. specs of its 2011 X3 crossover earlier this month, and at the 2010 Paris auto show, it displayed the new South Carolina-built SUV for the first time in public. The new creases and folds do good things for the X3’s sheetmetal. The ute loses some of the slab-sided appearance of […]
Though it’s been previewed earlier in the year, the 2011 Audi A7 made its formal debut at the 2010 Paris Auto Show with the trendy slope-back style pioneered by Mercedes-Benz, and adapted heartily by Porsche. On the A7, the hatchback, four-door-coupe stance works much better than on the Porsche Panamera–as if it were developed […]
At the 2010 Paris auto show, Volkswagen had a full range of new Passat sedans and wagons on display. But the Passat will not be returning to the U.S.–at least the new Euro Passat will not be–and to underscore that point, VW has released three new sketches of its upcoming new mid-size sedan (NMS). […]
The new Euro-spec 2011 Volkswagen Passat, shown for the first time at the Paris show, has a shape that North American shoppers will never likely see. Nevertheless we look at it with interest, as it might preface some of the design details of our Passat replacement that’s on the way. The Passat has a […]
Today, I got my first official taste of Fireball Run. I spent the morning behind the wheel of Team High Gear Media’s 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS, before switching seats and taking over navigation duties in the afternoon. To reiterate, the Fireball Run is billed as an “adventure rally” which places an emphasis on scoring […]
If you remember back a few weeks you’ll remember that we were given a sneak peak at Nissan’s latest electric creation, the Townpod. We weren’t told much by NIssan at the time and spent some time cogitating over the enigmatic press release, which stated that the TownPod “is more than just a car and […]
The Chevrolet Camaro Convertible is going to arrive a little bit earlier than we expected. Chevy showrooms will see their first drop-top Camaros in February—likely just in time to see the buzz build up to summer—and it’s a 2011 model. Pricing was also revealed: $30,000, including an $850 destination charge. That’s about $2,000 higher…
