The first photo of the Mercedes star for the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show has leaked – the Mercedes F125 Hydrogen Fuel Cell Concept, a big gullwing coupé. It’s probably going to be like this for a few days, with leaks ahead of reveals as Frankfurt looms. Now we have a bit of a surprise from the boys […]
Audi Urban Concept again, this time with photos and detail
Audi are making the most of their Urban Concept EV go-kart, this time with real photos and some proper detail ahead of Frankfurt 2011. It looks like we may have to dub the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show the EV Go-Kart show, such is the proliferation of fun – if ultimately rather pointless – electric go-karts. And today, just […]
Mercedes A-class AMG (2012) spied on video
We have spy video of the 2012 / 2013 Mercedes A-Class AMG caught testing in Germany. Expect it to arrive at Geneva 2012. We had the very impressive-looking Mercedes A-Concept at the Shanghai Motor Show back in April, and the less than impressive-looking new Mercedes A-Class patent drawings a while later. And now we have the first spy video of the range-topping […]

We have video of the Ferrari 458 Spider – Ferrari’s new hardtop convertible 458 – driven by Fernando Alonso. The 458 Spider will debut at Frankfurt.

Fiesta ST Concept (2012 / 2013) to show at Frankfurt
It’s being reported that one of Ford’s debuts at the Frankfurt Motor Show next week will be a concept version of the Ford Fiesta ST. There was a time when it seemed likely Ford would abandon all plans for a hot Fiesta. They seemed convinced that a Fiesta ST would be anathema in our seemingly eco-obsessed times, […]
Eterniti Hemera – it IS a Porsche Cayenne
Eterniti Motors has revealed the first photos of the new Eterniti Hemera ahead of a Frankfurt debut. And it is a titivated and tarted Porsche Cayenne. We did speculate from the start that the new car company that is Eterniti Motors is in fact a high-end customiser, and that its first ‘new’ car – the Eterniti Hemera […]
Kia GT revealed ahead of Frankfurt
The Kia 4-Door Concept has been revealed as the Kia GT, a swoopy, 4-door coupe with a V8 engine and heading to be Kia’s star of Frankfurt 2011. We proclaimed the Kia 4-door Concept, revealed last month, as the arrival of Kia as a credible maker of cars other than eco-boxes. And so it is, with […]
Opel / Vauxhall Electric Urban Concept – another EV Go-Kart
GM Europe – That’s Opel & Vauxhall – has revealed a two seat electric Urban Car Concept, said to herald a new era of low-cost urban transport. We’ve come to the conclusion that car makers now employ designers who were 10 years old in 1985. That’s the only explanation for the raft of Sinclair C5 […]
New Audi A2 EV Concept – first photos arrive
After tease sketches of Audi’s new A2 Concept – a compact EV – we get the first photos ahead of a Frankfurt reveal. It wouldn’t be a car show without yet another electric car concept from Audi. The difference at Frankfurt is that the already teased EV from Audi isn’t another in the seemingly endless iteration of […]
Jaguar C-X16 Revealed: It may be the XE, but it’s no E-Type Jag
The new Jaguar C-X16 – which may become the Jaguar XE – gets revealed ahead of Frankfurt, complete with hybrid powertrain. We’ve known the new small sports car from Jaguar – which may or may not become the Jaguar XE – was heading for Frankfurt for some time. Especially after we had teases of the Concept version […]
