Honda confirms hybrid electric car plans

Tim Pollard, 21 May 2008 09:05

Honda CEO Takeo Fukui today confirmed Honda's plans to build an expanded range of hybrid petrol-electric cars, including a new affordable model and a sports coupe based on the CR-Z concept. It's a signal that Honda won't let Toyota rule the hybrid market with its Prius and planned spin-offs; Fukui said he planned to build a half a million petrol-electric ...

Citroen C-Cactus's green secrets

Tim Pollard, 17 September 2007 12:52

Citroen C-Cactus: the lowdown Citroen’s C-Cactus concept car on show at Frankfurt signals the start of a programme to investigate simplifying the construction of its cars –stripping out unnecessary weight, complexity and emissions from its everyday hatchbacks and saloons. And it’s not as far flung as it looks. Its designers told CAR Online that this concept wasn’t about the external ...

Hyundai i-Blue

Guy Bird, 12 September 2007 06:48

Fuel cells, coupes and crossover wagons… The world debut of the i-Blue fuel cell concept headed up a trio of key Hyundai products at the Frankfurt show stand. ‘Spare me another fuel cell concept’ I can almost hear you thinking, but don’t switch off. This one is no theoretical eco powerplant for a fantasy concept but a serious design showcase ...

Daihatsu OFC-1 and HSC

Ben Pulman, 11 September 2007 10:51

It looks remarkably like a Copen… It does indeed, and at 5mm shorter, the same width, and only 45mm higher the OFC-1 is all but identical to the Copen. In fact, it is the new Copen, just not as cute. But perhaps the biggest changes is the switch from a two to a three-piece folding roof. The main roof section ...

Citroen C-Cactus

Tim Pollard, 03 September 2007 06:12

Citroen C-Cactus: the lowdown Get the prickly jokes out of the way now; Citroen is deadly serious about its new C-Cactus. Its risible name was apparently picked - groan - because it's low on consumption like the spiky desert plant... Yes, it's yet another green concept car, designed to showcase a company's commitment to saving the planet. But look past ...

Mini stop-start

Anonymous, 03 September 2007 03:15

Eco hatch Stop-start? Is the Mini doing a little bit of Prius copying? Sort of. Stop-start systems are nothing new (manufacturers have been experimenting for decades) but they certainly have been made fashionable by the hybrid gang, led by the Toyota Prius and Honda Civic Hybrid. It's a simple premise: when stationary, there's no need for thirsty petrol engines to ...

Audi's clean and green future

Ben Pulman, 30 August 2007 04:30

What’s all this about then? Vorsprung durch Technik? Audi, like every other German premium car maker, is feeling the pressure from the EU, its own Green Party, Al Gore, and seemingly everyone else. And unlike the French or Italian volume manufacturers which are already very close to the EU’s proposed 130g/km limit, the Germans are still a fair way off. ...

Nissan Mixim

Tim Pollard, 29 August 2007 02:30

Nissan Mixim: the lowdown This outlandish electric sports car will form the centrepiece of Nissan's Frankfurt Motor Show stand. As you can tell from its squashed insect looks, the Mixim is no production car in prick-tease show-off mode. This is a far-flung fantasy on the long-distance radar of Nissan's product planners. Now we've cleared that up, what's the point of ...

Ford Focus ECOnetic

Ben Barry, 28 August 2007 04:52

Car manufacturers will be tripping over themselves to look leaner and greener at next month’s Frankfurt Motor Show. Today Ford throws its hat into the ring with the Focus ECOnetic. Usually when a car manufacturer announces lowered suspension and an aerodynamics kit for its medium-sized hatchback, it goes hand-in-hand with extra power and a GTi badge. Not so Ford, which ...

Ford C-Max H2 ICE

Anonymous, 03 August 2007 09:45

Mini MPV Another hydrogen-powered Focus – what’s the difference between this and the FCV? The H2 ICE stands for hydrogen internal combustion engine. It has the kind of engine you’d recognize - Ford’s global 2.3-litre four-pot, as used in the Mazda 6, among others - but modified to burn hydrogen. Fuel-cell vehicles like the Focus FCV also use hydrogen, but ...
