Kia Ceed 1.4 ISG (2008) CAR review

Jesse Crosse, 24 September 2008 12:00

Kia will go electric, in a small way at least, when it introduces the Ceed with a stop-start system early in 2009. The Ceed ISG (Idle Stop and Go) will be the first of a series of new, green, technologies on the way from Kia which is also working on hybrids and fuel cell cars. How does this Kia Ceed ...

Audi 'won't launch its own eco sub-brand'

Ben Pulman, 17 July 2008 17:42

BMW has Efficient Dynamics, Mercedes has BlueEfficiency and Audi has… what? On the surface, Audi seems to have missed the green boat entirely, having not created an eco-brand to act as an environmentally friendly halo for its mainstream range. Audi says this isn’t the case; it’s not late to the party – it’s not coming at all. Surely it’s just ...

Honda OSM first pictures

Tim Pollard, 08 July 2008 14:47

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 ...

Ford Mondeo Econetic CAR review

Tim Pollard, 04 July 2008 00:00

Another week, another mainstream model that's been 'greened'. Ford is launching Econetic models across its range – with the common goal of boosting economy and battering emissions. The new Mondeo Econetic goes on sale in July 2008 and it enters a pretty busy sector; we've already tested numerous VW Bluemotion models as well as Seat's Ecomotive versions. The Mondeo follows ...

VW Passat Bluemotion CAR review

Richard Aucock, 24 June 2008 09:23

The Passat Bluemotion is part of a burgeoning range of eco-Volkswagens. The Polo Bluemotion started things off, but it is the dearer, more mainstream stuff - like the Passat - that will make VW money. Indeed, UK stocks of the Passat and Golf are already sold out for months. What have they done to make Blue go green? More than ...

Smart Fortwo ED CAR review

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 ...

Lotus and Caparo join forces to develop hybrid Jaguar limo

Ben Whitworth, 18 June 2008 12:30

Lotus Engineering has won a contract to develop two low-carbon vehicles – a large luxury hybrid executive saloon called Limo-Green and a zero-emission London Taxi – as part of a £52m raft of green projects initiated by the government’s Technology Strategy Board. Lotus will team up with Caparo Vehicle Technologies and automotive research giant MIRA to develop what it calls ‘a ...

Finnish electric scheme

Nick Gibbs, 17 June 2008 10:30

An organisation in Finland is looking to make an electric car out of the greenest vehicle on the road: yours. Working on the basis that the most environmentally acceptable car is the one that’s already been built, the Electric Car Now! initiative plans to electrify used cars by replacing the internal combustion engine with a lithium ion battery and electric ...

Mercedes F700 concept CAR review

Andrew Noakes, 16 June 2008 17:16

Advanced engineering wrapped in ‘aquatic’ styling made the Mercedes F700 concept car one of the stars of the Frankfurt motor show in September 2007, and CAR has been itching to put its technologies to the test ever since. Flip-over, cork-faced seats and a navigation system run by a virtual assistant called Gloria are novel enough, but we’re really here to ...

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 ...
