Hybrids

Infiniti's recent announcement of its renaming scheme to all Q-prefixed models may still be confusing for some, but the first of the renamed crossovers, the 2014 QX60 (once known as the JX), should help straighten things out. It's coming to the New York Auto Show--as a hybrid. Joining the QX80...

The reveal of the Ferrari “La Ferrari” may have stolen some of McLaren’s Geneva Motor Show thunder, but the Woking-based automaker wants the world to know the McLaren P1 won’t be known as the second-fastest production car in the world. As Cars UK tells us, McLaren’s...

Mitsubishi is giving a clear indication of its future plans with the reveal of two new concept vehicles at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show this week. Both vehicles fall into the ‘electrified’ category, though the two couldn’t be more different. One is a diesel-electric hybrid pickup...

Subaru’s new Viziv crossover concept, unveiled today at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, provides vital clues towards the path the Japanese automaker will be taking with its future vehicles. The Viziv is a two-door, four-seat crossover that draws its name from “vision for innovation”...

Few people will have heard of Swiss sports car manufacturer Sbarro, and we bet even fewer will have heard of the company’s industrial design school, Espera Sbarro. Each year at the Geneva Motor Show, Espera Sbarro students typically unveil new concepts showcasing their talents. One of the...

After a disastrous 24 Hours of Le Mans campaign last year, where both of its TS030 Hybrid prototypes ended up crashing, Toyota is back to fight again in 2013, with an updated version of its advanced gasoline-electric race car. The 2013 Toyota TS030 Hybrid prototype made its debut today at a special...

Last month it was confirmed Toyota and BMW would collaborate on a new platform that would form the basis of at least one sports car from each of the automakers. For Toyota, the platform would be used for a new generation of its Supra, a car that has been hinted at by the automaker’s execs for...

From the same company that brought us the world’s first diesel-electric hybrid, comes a new concept that does away with the electric component of hybrid cars and replaces it with compressed air instead. That company is French automaker PSA Peugeot Citroen, which at its recent Innovation Day...

A new Acura NSX supercar is brewing, and though the concept versions we’ve seen don’t appear to resemble the original NSX in anyway, apart from also featuring a mid-engine layout and V-6 engine, the two cars do have some core commonality. Just like the original ‘New Sportscar...

Acura has unveiled an updated version of its production-destined NSX concept, which not only gives us a better indication as to what the final version will look like but also the styling of its interior. You may recall that the previous NSX concept unveiled at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show only showed...

The 2014 Infiniti Q50, the replacement for the aging G37 Sedan, has finally made its debut at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, and while we weren’t completely enamored after seeing the initial press photos, now that we’ve seen it live we must admit that the new 3-Series and C Class fighter...

Infiniti is starting a new chapter in its relatively short life, with the new Q50 sedan the first model to be launched under the automaker’s bold new naming strategy. It’s also the first to be launched under the watchful eye of Audi veteran Johan de Nysschen, who was recently appointed...

Porsche’s upcoming 918 Spyder supercar is, perhaps, the most eagerly anticipated hybrid vehicle in history, and images of pre-production cars are all over the internet. We’ve even shown you a leaked video (now private) that reportedly captures a production version at an uber-secret...

On January 15, Nissan will take the wraps off its latest crossover concept, dubbed the Resonance, at this year’s Detroit Auto Show. Aside from the above teaser image, Nissan is only saying that the Resonance is the latest in a series of “envelope-pushing” crossover designs from...

One of the most important cars of the decade, Ferrari’s replacement for the Enzo supercar, the code-named F150, is scheduled to be revealed in the coming weeks. Ferrari has already teased us with a few shrouded images of its new flagship, and revealed some of the car's technology, but so far...

These are the first photos of a completed version of Ferrari’s replacement for the Enzo supercar. They appeared in the latest issue of Ferrari Magazine, the automaker’s official rag. The design in the photos shows a direct link with past and present Ferraris, including some influences...

Though some have panned the styling of Porsche’s Panamera sedan, we think the car’s lines do a reasonable job of making it seem sporty while linking it, design-wise, to the rest of Porsche’s product line. That said, we’d also admit that it looks much better as a shooting...

Automotive critics, it seems, are a hard bunch to please. We look at things in a different light than most consumers, paying careful attention to details like the material used to cover a dashboard, or the quality of plastic used throughout the interior. While we’re quick to pan a car...

Acura’s aging RL is finally set to be renewed, and in its place will be the new 2014 Acura RLX, which goes on sale next spring. The car made its official world debut this week at the 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show, and like a true flagship sedan it’s the most powerful, spacious, and...
