Honda Fit EV concept (2010) first pictures

Rated 3 out of 53

Robby Tyler, 18 November 2010 11:05

Honda today launched the Fit EV Concept at the LA auto show. Based on Honda's established supermini rather than being an entirely new model in its own right, the Fit EV concept 'hints strongly at the direction and styling for Honda’s upcoming production Fit EV all-electric vehicle' according to Honda. What's with the name 'Fit' then? Readers in the US, China and Japan will need ...

Rated 3 out of 53

Does the new Ferrari California drive like a real Ferrari should? Road test editor Chris Chilton tested the California V8 last week and thought it a brilliantly judged new addition to the Ferrari range (read his review here). But our eyes opened wider when an email landed today with a photo of European correspondent Georg Kacher behind the California's wheel ...

Ford Edge HySeries (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Jesse Crosse, 27 August 2008 09:41

It’s a few years now since the first serious prototype fuel cell cars hummed onto the radar, yet they’re still very much at the research stage. That said, they have come a long way considering the rocket science involved in making them work and the huge technical mountains engineers are having to climb. The Edge is the latest from the ...

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Whitworth, 11 August 2008 16:06

Honda has cast its environmental eye on to its dealerships. Its latest showroom - Inchcape Honda in Romford, Essex – uses recycled rainwater, ground source heating pumps and solar power to slash its energy bill by 30 percent compared to standard showrooms. Why is this Honda dealership so green? Instead of traditional air-conditioning, the 12-car site uses fully automated low-level ventilation ...

Will Honda show a roadster version of its sleek CR-Z coupe at the 2008 London motor show? This design sketch issued today confirms that 'a low-emission Honda sports car' badged OSM will be unveiled on 22 July 2008 at the Excel show centre – and it looks mightily like the petite coupe concept that Honda revealed at October 2007's Tokyo ...

VW Golf Bluemotion 1.9 TDI 5dr (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Dan Trent, 08 July 2008 11:30

Blue is the new green and Volkswagen's eco-friendly line-up continues to grow. Alongside the Polo and Passat, the Golf has now had the Bluemotion treatment – but at what price? If you want that silver sliver badge on the front, it'll cost you as much as £1290 over the price of a comparable regular TDI Golf. Order a five-door Golf ...

VW to relaunch 'one-litre' eco car

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Georg Kacher, 30 June 2008 15:52

Remember Volkswagen's 'one-litre' car, capable of one litre per 100km, or a scarcely credible 282mpg? Well VW has approved top-secret plans to build the limited-edition fuel miser in 2010, CAR Online can reveal. The tiny, grey cigar-shaped curiosity was a triumphal hit at the 2002 annual meeting in Hamburg and now – finally – it's heading for production. At the ...

Smart Fortwo ED (2008) electric CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Andrew Noakes, 19 June 2008 15:16

Smart isn’t trialling 100 electric Fortwos in the UK, instead of Germany, because our petrol prices are higher, or because our congestion charges more swingeing. In fact, it's largely because the Electric Drive conversion and the 'hot' battery technology underpinning the Smart Fortwo ED were both developed by Zytek in Lichfield, Staffordshire. Apart from the electrics, what’s changed in this ...
