Audi e-tron

Audi e-tron



You are going to say that I'm talking waaaaay to much of electric cars but the facts are there: a lot of makers are running this race. The latest one is Germany's Audi, which revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show this e-tron. As you can see, it is basically a R8 -but fully electric. And yes, it's going really fast.





The figures are quite impressive. The 4 electric engines of the Audi e-tron have 313 hp and the car can go from 0 to 62mph in 4.8s. The top speed is limited to 125mph and the autonomy is announced to be of about 156m. The Audi e-tron is clearly a serious rival of the BMW Vision EfficientDynamics.





A fast and beautiful electric car: ecology has suddenly become very attractive to me.

Mini Coupe Concept

Mini Coupe Concept



The Frankfurt Motor Show is definitely going to be THE place to be. Among the exciting upcoming models we can add this gorgeous Mini Coupe Concept. Designed for the 50th birthday of the famous British make, the Mini Coupe Concept is really a beautiful car! With its very low, aluminum-made roof, the Coupe has a very good look.





Created as a serious rival to the Audi TT and the Peugeot RCZ, the Mini Coupe Concept has indeed a lot of assets. The face is really from Mini but the rest is original and it is announced as a rather luxury car.





Let's say a word about the engine. The Mini Coupe Concept will enjoy the 208 bhp, 1.6-litre turbo petrol engine from the John Cooper Works hot hatch. It should go quite fast as the aluminum roof makes this car very light.
Very nice.

Peugeot RCZ

Peugeot RCZ



The French carmaker Peugeot has released a few pics of the wonderful RCZ on its official website. It is derived from the RCZ Concept that was revealed in Frankfurt in 2007. The goal of Peugeot with this car is simple: to challenge the Audi TT, as it can easily be seen on the pics.





Peugeot has announced three available motors: 1.6 THP 156bhp with manual or 6-speed automatic gearbox; 2.0 HDi FAP 163bhp with manual gearbox and 1.6 THP 200bhp with manual gearbox. As the French make is one of the greenest carmakers on the market, some interesting figures about the consumption are announced: from 53 MPG (5.3l/100km) to 37 MPG (7.5l/100km), and from 139g/km to 174g/km of CO2 emissions.





The Peugeot RCZ is to be put on sales in 2010.
