The Green Alfa Romeo Montreal

In North America, excess was everything as the muscle vehicle concept was developed to its zenith - all 7 liter V8's and tortured tire as the baby boomers reached driving age. Australian manufacturers, as ever taking the lead from their US parent companies, followed with their own locally developed V8 rockets.

Over in Europe, the introduction of soon-to-be icons such as the E-Type Jaguar showed that, as ever, style remained as important as material. Porsche was also busy, releasing the car by which they are still defined today in the 911.

But as if by right, it was the Italians that shawl the show. Ferrari were on top of their game as their famous 250 series V12's gave way to ever larger units, but ironically it was a disgruntled former Ferrari client that provided the motivation for the world's first super car. Ferruccio Lamborghini, a successful Italian industrialist then most famous for producing tractors, had become fed up with Ferrari unreliability and the diabolical service he received. Whether his debut 350GT of 1963 was made purely out of spite towards Ferrari as opposed to making sound business sense remains a contentious issue even today.


Regardless, the timeless Bert one designed Lamborghini Miura that debuted in 1966 is considered the original super car with its mid-mounted, hyperactive V12 and swooping, stealthy bodywork.





This high-end battle for European preeminence rubbed off on other Italian manufacturers. Fiat did a deal that gave them access to the musical 'Dino' Ferrari V6 which was seen in their Dino coupe and Spider series- worldwide image boosters for the Fiat reputation. Alfa Romeo, that other giant of the Italian automotive industry, was also seeking a flagship to bring the company in line with their vision for the next generation of sports cars.

2011 classic Ford Mustang GT

The 2011 Ford Mustang GT arrives with an all-new advanced 5.0-liter V-8 engine, developed by a fervent cadre of enthusiastic engineers who rallied around the common goal of delivering more than 400 horsepower.

The modern 5.0-liter four-valve Twin sovereign Variable Camshaft Timing (Ti-VCT) V-8 engine in the new Ford Mustang GT will deliver 412 horsepower and 390 ft.-lb. of torque. At the same time, fuel economy is projected to be better than the previous model and unmatched in the segment.


"This all-new 5.0-liter engine is the next chapter in the development of the world-class Mustang power train portfolio," said Derrick Kuzak, group vice president, Global Product Development. "It's a thoroughly modern engine for the times, delivering the performance and fun-to-drive factor that enthusiasts want, while improving fuel economy."


Many of the engineers on the development team have worked in the Engine and Electrical Engineering Building on the Dearborn, Mich., product development center campus. For years they walked past the original 5.0-liter V-8 Coyote Indy racing engine on display in the lobby, continually inspired by its mix of heritage, high technology and horsepower.

The power train development community had long wanted to develop a new 5.0-liter power train, with strategic discussions beginning in 2000. By 2007, the Mustang competitive landscape was beginning to change, a sign that the time was right for advancing the Ford Mustang GT power train to world-class levels.


The team began 5.0-liter engine development with the objective of delivering 400-plus horsepower, on a timetable accelerated by 12 months without compromises in reliability, durability, fuel economy, or noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) control.

"Nearly all of the team members have worked on other high-profile power train programs," said V-8 Engine Programs Manager Mike Harrison. "They all had a clear vision of the work required on their particular component or subsystem. Their passion for engines, racing and delivering every last ounce of performance throughout the engine speed range really demonstrated that they put their heads and their hearts into this power train."

2010 Saab New Model

Mark Twain once said "The reports of my death have been greatly inflated," little did he know he could have been talking about Saab.

Just two days after GM announced Saab would be closed, Spyker has submitted a new 11-point bid which seeks to address several key issues that scuttled their previous offer for the company. While details are limited, it appears the new offer will eliminate Spyker's need to be approved for a European Investment Bank loan before the end of the year.

According to Spyker's CEO, Victor Muller, "We have made every effort to resolve the issues that were preventing the conclusion of this matter, and we have asked GM and all other involved parties to seriously consider this offer." He added, "We are very confident that our renewed offer will remove the impasse that was standing in the way of an agreement on Friday, and this would still allow us to conclude the deal prior to the expiry of the deadline originally set by GM of December 31."

GM responded by issuing a statement which said "Following Friday's announcement that GM will begin the orderly wind down of Saab, GM has received inquiries from several parties. We will evaluate each inquiry. We will not comment further until these evaluations have been completed."

2010 BMW ActiveE Concept

Introducing the BMW ActiveE Concept, the latest electric car project under BMW Group's initiative to produce vehicles that explore solutions to minimize environmental impacts while preserving the kinetic driving experience for which BMW has long been known. The BMW ActiveE Concept follows the all-electric MINI E as the second large-scale electric vehicle test program to be conducted in the hands of interested customers.

The BMW Group presents yet another milestone along the way to achieving CO2-free mobility. The BMW ActiveE Concept provides a taste of a purely electrically powered BMW. Focused on the requirements of practical use, the study is based on the BMW 1-Series Coupe and embodies the outstanding agility and characteristic driving pleasure of the BMW 1-Series for the first time as part of an emissions-free drive concept.

With the world premiere of the BMW ActiveE Concept at the 2010 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit, the BMW Group is highlighting the continuation of its research and development activities in the field of electro-mobility. The field tests with the MINI E as part of project i in the US and Europe have already provided important insights into the demands required of future production electric vehicles. As a second step, project i has begun development of a second trial fleet of electric vehicles based on the BMW ActiveE Concept. These vehicles are likewise intended for everyday use by private and select fleet customers as part of a large-scale field test. The insights gathered in the process will be fed into the development of an electrically powered serial production vehicle which the BMW Group will put on the market under a sub-brand of BMW in the first half of the next decade.

The BMW ActiveE Concept has allowed BMW to explore new vehicle packaging solutions and components which will be crucial to the success of the Megacity Vehicle. The intelligent integration of drive components within the existing vehicle package of the BMW 1-Series Coupe offers the opportunity to provide four full-size seats and a luggage compartment with a capacity of 200 litres / 7 cu ft. The motor, specially developed for the model and located in the rear axle, delivers 125 kW/170 hp and provides maximum torque of 250 Nm / 184 lb-ft. It accelerates the vehicle in less than 9 seconds from zero to 100 km/h (0-60 mph in approx. 8.5 seconds).

2011 Ford S-MAX

Ford of Europe will unveil new versions of its top-selling Ford S-MAX and Ford Galaxy at the 2010 Brussels Show. With fresh designs and the latest evolution of Ford's kinetic design cues, they feature new interior equipment and features, a range of more efficient power trains and a host of driver focused technologies aimed at safety and comfort.

The 2010 Ford S-MAX and Ford Galaxy models kick off a busy year for new product introductions from Ford of Europe but, more significantly, herald the arrival of a series of new and innovative technologies and features that, as they are introduced throughout the year, will challenge traditional perceptions of what Ford cars feel like to sit in and drive.


"We've given both models a fresh new look and more premium appeal, but it is beneath the skin that the major changes have been made," said John Fleming, Executive Vice President and Chairman & CEO, Ford of Europe. "S-MAX and Galaxy are the first European Ford models to benefit from our global EcoBoost family of direct-injection, turbocharged, petrol engines delivering more power and performance from a lower displacement power plant, yet with impressive fuel economy and low CO2 emissions. And that is just the start of the 2010 S-MAX and Galaxy story."


The first cars to be available with Ford are all-new, high efficiency, 2.0-litre EcoBoost petrol engine. Producing 203 PS (149 kW) it joins a significantly improved 2.0-litre Duratorq TDCi diesel, with 140 PS (103 kW), plus a new 163 PS (120 kW) variant. Additionally, the smooth and effortless Ford Power Shift double wet-clutch transmission system is available for the first time on Ford's large car range; it will be standard equipment with the EcoBoost petrol engine and optional for both Duratorq diesels.


A range of innovative new safety and convenience features debut in the Ford range on versions of the new Ford S-MAX and Ford Galaxy, including a Blind Spot Information System (BLIS®), and new Rear Door Power Child Lock facility.

2010 Kia Venga

All-new Kia Venga, uniquely spacious and dynamic B-segment MPV makes its global debut at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show. The new model will be manufactured in Europe, and will go on sale across Europe later this year - backed by two warranties: Kia's unique '7-Years (drive train) / 5-Years (whole car) / 150,000 km' warranty, plus a 10-Year anti-corrosion warranty.

The new manufacture model, which is closely related to the stunning Kia No3 Concept car that made its debut at the Geneva Show earlier this year to worldwide acclaim, brings stylish good looks and a fun driving experience to an otherwise 'humdrum' vehicle segment.


"Kia Venga will certainly deliver all the practicality and versatility that a European family could require. It will also provide them with the most stylish transport this segment has ever seen," observes Benny Oeyen, Director Marketing & Product Planning, Kia Motors Europe. "On the road, its performance and agility will surpass the class norm. Kia Venga will ensure that rewarding, fun-to-drive motoring is now available to drivers whose lifestyles demand an MPV."


The 'Venga' name has an attractive and lively sound that suits Kia's latest family car. It is derived from Spanish and has a modern feel that fits well with active urban lifestyles. It echoes Kia's core brand value - the 'Power to Surprise'.

Designed, engineered and manufactured in Europe, the 4,068 mm long Kia Venga features an unusually long wheelbase for its class (2,615 mm) - and a 1600 mm high roofline to maximize cabin space. Skilful packaging ensures that the Kia Venga redefines its MPV category by offering levels of interior space typical of a larger C-segment vehicle, but within a B-segment footprint.


"Kia Venga is a tremendously exciting new model for us which will build on the success of the Kia cee'd and boost the on-going process of changing European consumers' perceptions of our brand," continues Oeyen.


"The B-segment MPV is still a 'young' concept, and although demand for this type of vehicle shrank during the last two years, we believe that two main factors will reverse that trend. Firstly, the economic climate will encourage consumers to down-size. Secondly, exciting new products from several manufacturers will re-ignite interest in the whole segment and with Venga, Kia will be positioned to maximize its sales growth and sector share," adds Oeyen.


All engines in the Kia Venga line-up will be available with Kia's fuel-stretching Start/Stop (ISG) technology and will comply with Euro 5 emission standards. Start/Stop (ISG) equipped models will have a CO2 rating from just 117 g/km (1.4-litre U2 engine).
