2012 Hyundai Veloster
Front wheel drive 2012 Hyundai Veloster are out and this sports coupe looks as good. Despite the test vehicle being camouflaged in black, Hyundai’s Veloster lives up to the expectations with its 2+2 seating after the Concept version released at the 2007 Seoul Auto Show. Besides an attractive exterior body style, the side windows are much improved- they stretch beyond the B-pillar. The tail lamps are positioned on the rear plane. The sides are taller with a long roof and a steeply raked windshield. The front and rear fenders have been made less fat and toned down. The dramatic stance is heavily brought down and it leaves car lovers slightly disappointed, especially people who were hoping for the next Honda CRX. The Veloster is inspired by the Hyundai Accent and is slightly longer than the Mini Cooper, while still retaining 70 percent of the Concept’s styling. It looks really small and comes with a host of power improvements in the form of the pretty decent 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, gasoline direct injection (GDI technology). The power figures are a neat 138 hp and 136 lb-ft of torque. There is also a choice of a dual-clutch automatic transmission or one can have manual transmission as well with an entry level power plant of over 40 mpg. Expected to hit the roads soon sometime later this year or early 2011, the Veloster is pegged at a neat price of US $18,000.

Caparo T1

The Caparo T1 is a efficient and compact 2.4-litre V8 engine develops almost 500bhp in a vehicle weighing less than 500kg. The result is a significant technical breakthrough; being the world's first ever road and track car to produce 1,000bhp-per-tonne which defines an entirely new breed of exotic - and far from ordinary - supercar that is lighter than a Caterham but with twice the power-to-weight ratio of a Bugatti Veyron. In turn, this endows the car with an extraordinary 0-100-0mph time of 8.5 seconds, which is directly comparable to an A1 GP race car.

By eliminating the "B" pillar and creating a suspended "C" pillar, the minimalist style works in conjunction with subtractive mass.

Volkswagen Concept Car

The most beautifully designed car is a Volkswagen's Futuristic Concept.The Volkswagen cars we will be driving 20 years from now will be sustainable, tailored to fit personal needs and bring a whole new driving experience to the road. The vehicles shown range from the Room, a family vehicle, the Ego, a two seater, and the One, a single rider urban vehicle. All of them are fitted with technologies which are staples of science fiction, but are not quite possible yet at least not in the mass produced scale which is required for them to be economically feasible. Think fully electric vehicles powered by the sun, vehicles that drive themselves, fitted with an all encompassing internet, cars that can tell the mood that you are in, and which are able to speak to other cars in the road.

AC Schnitzer 3Series E46 M3 Sport

Professional tuning is very much in demand, especially by drivers of high performance cars. So AC Schnitzer has developed an expanded special accessory range for the BMW M3 which further optimises the already excellent performance of the standard model. Especially effective is the AC Schnitzer rear differential, which perceptibly improves the agility of the BMW M3. The modified gear ratio of 3.91 : 1 gives far more sporting gear changes and the 6th gear becomes a "true power stage" allowing the driver to reach top speed earlier than in the standard vehicle. Another highlight is the new AC Schnitzer Racing Interior Conversion. This consists of extremely light, high strength racing seats with suede upholstery and embroidered AC Schnitzer logo in conjunction with a 4-point harness system. The conversion is completed by the new AC Schnitzer roll bar ensuring optimum body rigidity and hence constituting a real extra safety reserve. All components can be fitted individually, retaining the standard 3-point safety belt system. In addition, as usual we have placed the emphasis on specially developed suspension components, making these the heart of our special tuning range. Depending on personal preference, M3 owners can choose between a sports comfort setting in the AC Schnitzer sports suspension or a racing suspension with adjustable set-up and ride height. The special setting of the AC Schnitzer racing suspension gives the customer the opportunity to experience pure driving pleasure while retaining suitability for everyday use. The sports suspension lowers the BMW M3 approx. 25 mm and the racing suspension reaches a lowering by approximately 30 - 35 mm. Another suspension highlight is the aluminium racing strut brace which makes the M3 more stable and hence gives optimum torsional rigidity in the vehicle front. The range is completed by the removable rear aluminium strut brace and the antiroll bar set. An extended wheel range consisting of the brand new AC Schnitzer Type IV racing wheels in 20" size as well as Type II and Type III light alloy and racing wheels in 18" or 19" diameter is also available. The driving qualities of the BMW M3 - excellent even as standard - are furhter enhanced by the AC Schnitzer light alloy and racing wheels. The maximum wheel/tyre size on the front is 8,0J x 20" offset 42 with tyres 245/30 R 20 and on the rear 10.0 J x 20" offset 33 with 285/25 R 20. AC Schnitzer recommends high performance tyres by Continental and Michelin. Faster and more precise gear changes increase the adrenaline surge and also improve acceleration in a car. So with the AC Schnitzer Short Shift (for vehicles with manual transmission), we can offer that genuine touring-car feel. Optimum driving behaviour, good acceleration and the right sound are undoubtedly some of the most important attributes of a thoroughbred sports car. For this reason, the AC Schnitzer engineers have developed a sports rear silencer of V2A special steel with two chromed racing tailpipe trims which gives the M3 an even more striking sound, and further improves exhaust gas flow and hence response behaviour. Perfect balance and an individual appearance were the key specifications for the designers. The result is an optimised aerodynamics package which offers the customer various conversion stages available individually or in combination. The basic component is a carbon-fibre front spoiler available in either silver or black, which is supplemented in the conversion stage with front flippers. Anodised aluminium braces ensure extra stability. At the rear, a rear roof spoiler and a multipiece racing wing are fitted. The striking optical reference to touring car origins lies in the complex design in conjunction with the aluminium feet. The overall aesthetic appearance is impressively completed by the AC Schnitzer rear diffuser with carbon-fibre wing profile which harmoniously integrates the AC Schnitzer sports rear silencer. The racing rear wing and diffuser are both available in either silver or black carbon fibre. As well as the external accessories, an extensive interior range is also available to give the driver the strongest indication of sitting in a thoroughbred sports car. Only the highest quality materials are used which have their "origins" in motorsport. AC Schnitzer carbon-fibre interior trims and an AC Schnitzer 3-spoke sports airbag steering wheel in black and silver are also available, together with products which give a motorsport-oriented ambience in the cockpit such as foot rests, pedals and handbrake handle and also the gear knob made from aluminium, and velours foot mats. Finally, AC Schnitzer offers tailor-made solutions in the field of traffic telematics and Car Infotainment which can be integrated optimally.
