This is the Peugeot EX1 electric car and it recently set a new track record at Germany’s Nürburgring-Nordschleife circuit. Stéphane Caillet, driver and tuner-technician from the Company’s Research & Development Centre, was at the wheel of the EX1 Concept Car, which covered the circuit’s 20.832 kilometres (12.944 miles), convincingly beating the electric speed record for […]
Possibly the best looking car in the world right now? It’s certainly up there. This is not just a mere concept from Alfa, as the 4C is due to go into production. Yes, that’s full production and not just a small run. I cannot wait to see this car on the road. Mid engine and […]
I’ve never been that much of a fan of the Suzuki Swift Sport – the name is a bit of a misnomer. It isn’t that quick and it doesn’t really have anything in the way of sporting credentials. However, this S concept looks the business, if a bit of a RenaultSport Clio in Suzuki clothing…
This is the latest concept car that’s due to be shown at Geneva – the SsangYong SUT 1 (Hall 4, Stand 4133)! Why SUT?

In particular, it has the swooping bodywork that features on a number of other recent Renault concepts. […]
In what will be a limited design run, the Porsche Supervisory Board confirmed development of the 918 Spyder concept for the road – and I for one cannot wait. This concept version of an ultra-high-performance mid-engined sports car with plug-in hybrid technology made its debut at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show and at Auto China […]
Volvo. Perhaps not the first brand to come to mind when discussing performance. Which is why this Volvo C30 concept by Polestar Performance looks so interesting. Developing 400PS and transferring the power to the road via an all-wheel-drive system, the C30 Performance Concept Prototype was designed to evaluate what happens when a Championship-winning team of […]
Have you heard of it? Well, I hadn’t either until I saw this article on Auto Trader. Fancy having a car that does 200 miles per gallon? Given the cost of fuel at the moment, I can see that positively everyone in Britain might want to look at something like this, if they are one […]
This is the latest image of the Suzuki R3 concept car, which is being shown at the 2010 Auto Expo in New Delhi. The R3 Concept is a compact MPV that can seat six people in three rows and has been designed as an example of a vehicle that could cater for India’s rapidly changing […]
