Car news today


A few days after the famous Lamborghini Gallardo Polizia crash, another italian supercar has been destroyed; this time, it is the Pagani Zonda! This happened in Hong Kong when a man wrecked his million dollar plus supercar by backing it up into a parked car!




Like we said about a week and half ago, Japanese magazines have been giving us information about many Japanese cars. This time it is the Honda CR-Z Hybrid and the Toyota FT-86 RWD Coupe (new design). So, let's start off with the Honda; photos of the Honda CR-Z Hybrid have made themselves to the web, which mean these leaked photos mean that the car is official. The magazine also revealed complete specs and it's launch date. The car is supposed to go on sale in Japan in February of 2010, with Europe and North America following shortly after. Toyota wise, photos from a Japanese magazine called Option Car show that there will be a tuned version of the FT-86 RWD Coupe. The artist provides the looks with two-tone paint scheme as well as a bodykit and deep-dish alloy wheels.

As you might know, Porsche has been trying to buy Volkswagen, but this has been turned around completely. Volkswagen has bought Porsche! They bought them for US$5.8 billion and take up 49.9% of them. Volkswagen already own Seat, Audi, Skoda, Bentley, Lamborghini, Bugatti and Scania which will give them a profit of €700 million in the long term.

Volkswagen reveals concepts for the future








Volkswagen has made three new concepts that are unique and all for the year 2028! No we didn’t mis-type anything they really did make these futuristic concepts as their impression of what people will be driving in distant future.
The One is a single-seater car that is small and very compact. The Ego, is sporty and holds only two passengers. The VW Room is the third concept and is the ultimate family vehicle that does not require anyone to drive.
