Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X FQ400 (2009) first look

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Tim Pollard, 27 May 2009 11:56

Another month, another power-crazed Mitsubishi Evo. This time it’s the most extreme Evo X to date, sporting the eponymous FQ400 badge. That loosely refers to the 403 brake horsepower on tap and the fact that this Evo is effing quick. Mitsubishi claims the Evo X FQ400 will dispatch 0-62mph in 3.8 seconds and top 155mph before the limiter cuts in. ...

Vauxhall Insignia Ecoflex (2009) first pictures

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Barry, 21 April 2009 13:20

Vauxhall has announced its answer to the planet-conscious Volkswagen Passat Bluemotion – the Insignia Ecoflex. Essentially the Ecoflex is a 158bhp 2.0-litre CDTi Insignia, but an army of now-familiar C02-slashing improvements have been swung into action. What are these eco tweaks then? These improvements include under-car panelling and a lower ride height to help the Insignia cut through air more ...

Vauxhall Insignia VXR (2009): first official photos

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Tim Pollard, 15 April 2009 00:01

Yesterday we brought you spy video footage of the new Vauxhall Insignia VXR. Today we have the first official photographs of Luton’s new cut-price M3 four-door. Vauxhall will have the sporting family car segment almost to itself – Ford no longer builds a Mondeo ST and most European rivals no longer bother with high-horspower saloons (excepting VW’s equally crazed Passat ...

And, ...

Lokinen Geneva motor show 2009 blog

Rated 4 out of 54

Lokinen, 10 March 2009 12:00

Getting To Base Camp Thannon It had all gone too well. Having failed to secure accommodation near the centre of Geneva, I’d easily managed to get an apartment in the same block as my two forum blogger colleagues, Robbie (1977) and Mark (car4mh). I’d also, purely by chance, managed to get a flight that landed ten minutes before Robby’s flight ...

The new-look models will make their debut at the Geneva motorshow in early March, alongside the new Exeo estate and a yet-to-be-seen Ecomotive concept. Hmmm, they don't look much different… ...

Ben Pulman, 15 January 2009 09:59

These are the first pictures of the Peugeot 3008 crossover, just released by the French manufacturer. It looks almost identical to the Prologue Hybrid 4 concept unveiled at the 2008 Paris motor show and, significantly, the production 3008 will be Peugeot’s first hybrid vehicle.

Volvo S60 Concept car (2009): the full photos and video

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Tim Pollard, 16 December 2008 09:42

Volvo has just issued these first photos of the new S60 Concept car, to be unveiled at the 2009 Detroit auto show. It's a pretty damn close look at what we'll see when the S60 saloon is replaced in 2010. What's new about the S60? Today's four-door has been plagued by mini-me S80 looks and an indistinct proposition. It's like ...
