Aston Martin Cygnet Concept

Aston Martin Cygnet Concept

I have to admit, when I first saw the Aston Martin Cygnet minicar concept, I thought it was a joke. I mean, why would Aston Martin – makers of gorgeous, high-end, high-performance supercars – make a small, fuel efficient city car? Well, turns out it’s not a joke, just a really bad idea. Talk about [...]

Lamborghini Toro LA 690-4 Concept

Lamborghini Toro LA 690-4 Concept

Another Lamborghini Concept is out in the open, this one designed to compete with the long-awaited Lexus LFA and Aston Martin One-77 supercars.
The Lamborghini Toro LA 690-4 Concept is a sort of throwback to the Lambo Espada, but special attention was paid to ensure it did not have the same modern-retro feel as many of [...]

Three Mazda2 Concepts Unveiled at LA Auto Show

Three Mazda2 Concepts Unveiled at LA Auto Show

Following the debut of the new (for the States) Mazda2 compact car, Mazda shows us a few customized versions of the 2.
The first concept they call “Mazda 2Evil Special Concept.” It’s the gray one in the back and features a modified front spoiler, deeper side rocker, rear roof spoiler, and rear diffuser. The ride height [...]

Lexus LF-Ch Compact Hybrid To Be At 2009 Los Angeles Auto Show

Lexus LF-Ch Compact Hybrid To Be At 2009 Los Angeles Auto Show

The Lexus LF-Ch Compact Hybrid is an odd little car. Or, to be more exact, it’s odd that Toyota would badge a car like this as a Lexus. The hybrid part makes sense, but making a small hatchback as a Lexus, even if Toyota is calling it a “Premium Compact”, seems to run counter to [...]

Volkswagen L1 Concept

Volkswagen L1 Concept

VW showed their L1 Concept at Frankfurt this year. It’s an updating of a similar design from a few years back. Essentially it’s a 1+1 diesel powered city car-esque design study that will get the greenies all up in a fine lather but will be sort of threatening to old school car guys.
I’m not sure [...]

MINI Unveils Two New Models

MINI Unveils Two New Models

Being the 50th Anniversary of MINI means they’re unveiling two new concept cars on the public at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show. Dubbed the “Oxford Twins,” the Coupe and Roadster Concept cars made an impression at the show today.
I’ll be honest with you…the press release MINI sent out today regarding these cars was 58 pages [...]

Mazda MX-5 Miata Superlight

Mazda MX-5 Miata Superlight

Mazda is celebrating its 20th anniversary of the first MX-5 Miata roadster by creating yet another special edition. Unlike the production 20th Anniversary Edition, this MX-5 Superlight Edition will not be produced, but was created as a show car to demonstrate “how individual mobility can be maintained in a way that uses fewer natural resources,” [...]

The MINI Coupe Concept

The MINI Coupe Concept

Hey, it looks like MINI is actually going through with this whole “coupe” version of its MINI Copper hatchback – or at least they’re rolling out a concept of the neat looking little guy at the Frankfurt show this September. Good timing too, since this is MINI’s (although, that would be the not all caps, [...]
