Lotus news at 2009 Tokyo motor show

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Ben Pulman, 22 October 2009 09:56

Lotus was one of only three foreign manufacturers to exhibit at the 2009 Tokyo show, and as well as shouting about the success of the Evora (including a mention of it scooping CAR's PCoTY title), the company unveiled a special-edition Exige. Called the Exige Stealth is Japan – and the ugly-sounding Scura throughout the rest of the world – it's ...

Honda news at 2009 Tokyo motor show

Rated 2 out of 52

Ben Pulman, 21 October 2009 03:31

Honda's press conference begins – and that dastardly clever little swot ASIMO strolls onto stage. I swear his animation gets better every year – he'll be running for prime minister next. He saunters onto stage and introduces Honda CEO Ito-san, but then let’s me down. I want ASIMO to pretend to fall asleep during Ito-san’s speech, or make a show ...

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Pulman, 19 November 2008 17:10

Nissan pulled the wraps of its new 370Z coupe at today’s LA Auto Show, and confirmed that a Roadster version will arrive within the next 12 months. Topping the list of 370Z talking points are a shorter wheelbase, a larger engine, a seven-speed automatic and the world’s first rev-matching six-speed manual gearbox. A rev-matching manual? So I won’t need to ...

SEMA 2008 show report: Dodge Challenger

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Whitworth, 06 November 2008 16:59

Chrysler may have its back against the wall, but that hasn't stopped its SRT skunkworks team churning out what is easily the most politically incorrect – and, as a result, wonderfully desirable – Challenger SRT-10. Holy tyre smoke! That's a mean looking Dodge Charger... Yes, and with an 8.4-litre 600bhp V10 Viper motor shoehorned into the Dodge’s engine bay, there’ll ...

Jaguar at the Paris motor show 2008

Rated 4 out of 54

Mark Walton, 03 October 2008 15:28

Rather than celebrating the new, Jaguar celebrated the very old in Paris this year - but it was still one of the most stylish cars on display. That's because 2008 marks 60 years since the launch of the brand-defining Jaguar XK120, which was first shown at Earl's Court, in October 1948. So did Jaguar produce a BMW-style retro-concept? Thankfully no. ...

Green sports car maker Tesla made a guest appearance at the London motor show 2008 with one of its electric Elises in the Greener Driving Pavilion. What's new on Tesla's London motor show stand?
