New Cars April 2012

April 27 - 2012 Volkswagen E-Bugster Concept Topless  The E-Bugster made its debut as a coupé at the Detroit Auto Show in January, but this time the electric concept’s hard-top has been removed, giving the best hint yet of the look of the future Beetle Cabriolet, and also showing the potential for Volkswagen’s future all-electric drivetrains.

April 24 - 2012 Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Wei Long  The one off Grand Sport model “Wei Long 2012” was developed together with the Königliche Porzellan Manufaktur Berlin and has been fitted with dragon relief sculptures on finest porcelain both on the body and in the cabin endowing the car with deep Chinese cultural heritage. With highly elaborated dragon sculptures on the oil and fuel cap, its white polished exterior and carmine red interior the “Wei Long 2012” shines with elegance and nobility. The headrests are embroidered with the Chinese “Dragon” character, and the handcrafted 100% silk floor mats are embossed with Chinese “Dragon” character. Highlight is the exquisite center piece with a white porcelain dragon relief sculpture with every detail of a dragon’s body so
vividly craved and elaborated.

April 24 - 2012 Jeep Wrangler Dragon Design Concept  The Jeep Wrangler Dragon design concept is based on a China-market Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon painted black with a black body-color three-piece hard top. From there, the designers incorporated numerous bronze-gold details – a color associated with the dragon. These bronze-gold details can be found inside the front grille slats, headlamp surrounds and Jeep badging front and rear.  The exterior also has black highlights such as painted fenders, a gloss-black applique on the front bumper, and a tone-on-tone dragon decal that starts on the hood and runs down the driver's side of the vehicle.

April 24 - 2012 Audi A6 L e-tron Concept  Audi is presenting its first luxury-class e-tron concept car – a technology study known as the Audi A6 L e-tron concept at Auto China 2012 in Beijing. The plug-in hybrid has a powerful drive system that enables a driving range of about 50 miles on pure electric power, and it was specifically designed to fulfill Chinese needs.

April 24 - 2012 Audi Q3 jinlong yufeng  The Audi Q3 jinlong yufeng is an off-road vehicle for young, active sports enthusiasts. Its paint finish is Liuli Yellow, a luminous monochrome color that expresses a zest for life and high energy. The body add-on parts, many of which match those of the off-road package for production cars, are painted in matt quartz; this paint, built up from different gray pigments, has a natural look and is slightly rough to the touch.

April 24 - 2012 G-Power BMW M3 E46  The G-Power SK I "Sporty Drive“ supercharger system provides the 3.2 l straight cylinder engine from the BMW M GmbH with the necessary boost to push the output from standard 343 hp to awesome 450 hp.

April 23 - Lamborghini Urus Concept  At the 2012 Beijing Motor Show, Automobili Lamborghini presents the ultimate super athlete in the SUV segment. With the 600 hp Urus concept car, Lamborghini is completely redefining dynamics and design in this category. The Urus combines unique design, a fascinating interior and outstanding performance with versatility and everyday usability.

April 23 - 2012 Rolls-Royce Ghost Six Senses Concept  The elegant Ghost Six Senses is a highly-bespoke luxury model.  The pearlescent Carrara White finish complements new forged alloy wheels while eyes are immediately drawn to rich interior detailing upon entry through its coach doors. The deep lustre of the Walnut Burr veneer complete with diagonally-oriented, brown oak cross-banding, are designed to hint at the extraordinary power at the driver’s disposal.

Fisker Karma - win it in a skill competition

The future is here, and it looks amazing, rides on 21” alloy wheels and has only electricity powering the wheels. Henrik Fisker is a car designer with such beauties as the Aston Martin V8 Vantage and BMW Z8 to his credit, so it’s no surprise that the Karma is a stunning looking vehicle. Long, low, aggressive yet sleek and sporty, it looks as if the body was wrapped around the mechanicals as tightly as possible.

And what mechanicals they are – 402bhp from two electric motors in the rear wheels means it’s fast, and it can do 50 miles on electric alone. But should you need to go further a 2.0 turbo engine under the bonnet kicks in to act as a generator, extending your range to accommodate almost any journey. Expect to see a lot of cars like this in the near future…

Review:

The "SP" (Sport Production) logo is once again emblazoned on the fairing of a Ducati SBK. It was first introduced on the legendary Ducati 851 to identify versions that were used as a basis for development of bikes competing in the Sport Production championship, the forerunner of the current Super Stock. Now as then, "SP" identifies standard production models that are kitted out to make them "track ready". Now, from unparalleled experience acquired on tracks all over the world, comes the 1198 SP, more exclusive and higher-performing than ever before: the aluminium tank, Ducati Quick Shift, slipper clutch, Ohlins suspension with TTXR technology at the rear and a dry weight of 168 kg make the 1198 SP ready for any track challenge.
The Ohilins fork, lightened chassis components and the exceptional DTC (Ducati Traction Control) system complete what is already an extremely well equipped motorcycle. Ducati Superbikes are race bikes, pure and simple. Their striking aerodynamic shapes create a natural riding position, confirmed by our development and factory team riders as the optimum for speed and agility. Performance is first and foremost in every detail. Trademark Ducati features like the high tail section and compact front end combine with twin under-seat silencers and single-sided swingarm to express the sheer engineering beauty of aerodynamics and agility. Add the Testastretta Evoluzione engines as the hearts of the machines and the result is all-out performance Ducati Superbikes that look fast even when parked.

New Competition: Win Jaguar XJ Luxury + Abarth Esseesse + £5,000

Jaguar XJ Luxury

Win Jaguar XJ Luxury + Abarth Esseesse + £5,000

Let’s not beat about the bush here. The new Jaguar XJ is easily the best looking executive saloon on sale today. It makes the Audi A8 look bland, the BMW 7-Series look overweight and the Mercedes S-Class look over-styled. It would be fine if that was all it had – Jaguars have survived on much less in the past. But the fact is that the new XJ isn’t just the prettiest car in the class – it’s also the best. Driving down bumpy roads you could think you’re sitting on a sofa, such is the competence of the suspension – then you turn off down a twisty road and the chassis comes alive, changing direction and handling like a car half its size. Because the XJ is made from aluminium it weighs much less than its rivals, so the 3.0 V6 Diesel engine doesn’t need to work as hard and achieves effortless performance while giving excellent economy. So it beats the rivals everywhere so far, and then you look at the interior. Another masterclass in design and function, from the TFT dials to the oh-so-cool rising gear selector, the XJ is pure design greatness inside and out.

Abarth 500 Esseesse

This is the Abarth 500 Esseesse – an even hotter version of the Fiat 500-based standard car that we drove last year. Packing a host of upgrades, it’s one of the most exciting small Fiats in history. While it weighs the same as the standard model at 1,035kg, power from the 1.4-litre turbo jumps 25bhp to 160bhp and torque leaps 24Nm to 230Nm at 3,000rpm. Fiat says the car travels from a 0-62mph in 7.4 seconds and has a top speed of 131mph...

2012 BMW M5 skill competition: Win BMW M5 + £10,000

The daddy of performance saloons is back. BMW have learnt a valuable lesson with this latest M5. The previous model was far too laden with technology and it took a lot away from what is the essence of an M5. There were too many gearbox maps, too many suspension settings, and frankly too much to go wrong with the highly strung 5.0 V10 engine. With this new model, everything is simpler, and one thing radically different. The suspension and gearbox work together with only a couple of options including the obligatory ‘M’ button settings.

Win 2012 BMW M5 + 10,000

Under the bonnet is the biggest change though, and one which has upset many diehard M-Gmbh fans. The M5 is back to having a V8 – but this time it has two turbos attached. This, says BMW, is so that they can meet emissions and economy targets, whilst still delivering lots of power and torque. This new V8 pumps out a staggering 560bhp, in a nice subtle 4 door saloon car. Perfectly able to cruise around town one minute, then tear your local twisty road to pieces the next, the M5 has a breadth of abilities wider than most sportscars. The ultimate under-the-radar car has returned…

Jaguar XKR-S competition + £30,000

Power, aggression, bright colours. These aren’t usually terms you would associate with Jaguar, but the company recently felt that there was a corner of the performance car market that they weren’t exploiting – the hardcore coupe market.

Win Jaguar XKR-S + 30,000

Normally occupied by cars like the Ferrari 430 Scuderia, BMW M3 GTS and mainly the Porsche 911 GT3 (& RS), these cars hare track-focussed, yet can also be set about tackling the best roads you can throw at them. To this end, Jaguar took the already fantastic XK-R and set about turning this pussy cat into a snarling beast.

The 5.0 Supercharged V8 gets a power hike up to 542bhp, and with the use of some carbon fibre the cat weighs about 80kg less. This makes for stunning performance with 0-60 mph taking just 4.4 seconds, and the XK-RS tops out at 186mph, or 300km/h for our European friends. Visually the XK-RS gets a new aggressive front bumper with additional air-channelling scoops, and the rear gets a boot spoiler all of which balance the car perfectly at speed. But being a Jaguar, the car can be taken out of Sport mode, and the auto ‘box allows you to cruise in comfort to the track. But once there, the new louder, snarling exhaust will let everyone know that you mean business…
