  • The McLaren P1's interior - image: McLaren

    With just three weeks remaining until the P1 supercar has its official debut at this year’s Geneva Motor Show, McLaren is teasing bits and pieces of its construction to keep the car in the public eye. Last week we saw its F1-inspired instrumentation, and this week we’re getting a glimpse of the P1’s interior. McLaren calls the cabin “minimalist” in its design, and the carbon fiber used throughout the interior is there for function, not just form. Like the cockpit of a fighter jet, you’d be hard-pressed to find anything that isn’t necessary for...

  • Frazer-Nash Namir concept car

    Back in 2011, we heard that historic British automaker Bristol Cars was working on an electric supercar capable of reaching speeds close to 200 mph. The fact that the company had declared itself insolvent only a few months prior to the supercar rumors left us with some major doubts, however. Fast forward to today, and Bristol Cars, currently owned by holding company Kamkorp Group, which also owns Frazer-Nash Research, the company responsible for 2009’s striking Namir electric supercar concept, is reportedly close to unveiling its own electric supercar--and this one's said to be...

  • Chris Harris duels with Mat Johnson at Brands Hatch

    Here’s what we know about Codemasters’ latest racing game, Grid 2: it promises realistic graphics, includes both track and street racing environments and promises to deliver an entertaining array of cars, including the Pagani Huayra, the Chevy Camaro, the Ford Mustang and the McLaren MP4-12C. Like the original version of Grid, we expect Grid 2 to be long on entertainment value but a bit short of the content delivered by other “racing simulation” games. If you’re looking for an accurately rendered cabin, complete with realistic gauges, you won’t find it...
