Concept Car : Hybrid Toyota Supra, the next Ferrari, and the Toyobaru Coupe 2011

  It is time once again a popular news semi-permanent, where you can upgrade some interesting things happening in and around the world can drive, you probably will not read the article. (If you read the newspapers, that is.)

We start with two news sports cars such as Plessy Ferguson and gentlemen, are very different, but equally important.



The first message that, despite repeated denials to the public, Toyota is working on a successor Supra expensive sports cars. There are rumors that a new generation of packaging V6 hybrid drive from a total of 400 horses, but the production of hybrid versions of those life on our planet, thank you very much. RWD is almost certainly a style by the FT-HS concept car inspired by a chance to be. Hope next year's models, a concept car production in autumn 2011.






























Toyota FT-HS Concept




Since the success of the Nissan was with him, it is surprising that Toyota waited so long that their average weight of a sports car. It would be interesting to see how the hybrid technology from Toyota is the high efficiency, especially because his only company exploring the possibilities of technology in sports cars. (See below).


A new sports car is being developed in Japan in the second, called "Toyobaru" cheap sports car jointly by Toyota and Subaru. After 7Tune, Sport Subaru STI variant of the device, except that Toyota has decided to offer a car engine.

The report also shows, insider Toyobaru has a style similar to the Lexus LF-A, which was a violation of the super-fans for many years, a concept car, a prototype machine, and even thinly veiled racism. Can it be assumed that the joint task Toyobaru (do not know how they will name it, I love the sound here) want to keep the price of 2 million yen today, a little 'more than $ 20,000.


The LF-A attempts to hide by closing its eyes and pretending it's invisible.




If they, the U.S. at that price, engine components up to 200-hp four-cylinder and six-speed manual transmission, which can begin in me. If at any time in the 2011 queue.



In other news related to sports cars, Ferrari, said that his successor can Autocar F430 show this year% u2019s Los Angeles Auto Show in December, as a hybrid. Go to another wipe the screen just caught spitting, I expect.

 



Yes, friends, Ferrari usually between Bentley and Pratt & Whitney  is organic does the idea that, hey, can perhaps begin hybrids fun! In fact, the recent patent hybrid four-wheel drive in an environmentally friendly technology, which seems strange that George Clooney nipple suit beats.


Do not wait for the AWD hybrid system F450, new construction, because all evidence points to a new center-Ferrari reveal your real name. The company is naturally concerned that customers are willing to "green" moniker Ferrari, concepts related to the hybrid version will be this winter. F450 Hybrid production is scheduled from mid-next decade.



Few details are known to F450, but I did not expect the formula that a 360 Modena, F430 V8 engine and a high success rate, two seats and has been stylishly. Energy is probably between 500-550 hp, seven speed dual clutch gearbox California.



In addition, in the human CzechFerrari.cz some pictures, which the F450 there is a right. Images do not reveal much, because the prototype of their miss back before and of its wheels and  most interiors. But if nothing else, with reference to the general shape of the car, and it looks pretty good so far. (For some reason, no pictures, so that they may be, but can provide all CzechTrade Ferrari pages of pictures.)



Finally, Kelley Blue Book published a list of what they describe as the best car this year, less than $ 18,000. Although he is not picky (oh, I say, screw that I have nits) a few words. First, Kelley says, the car less than $ 18,000, unless it is literally a car Big 18 species fell on the roof. Second, it seems that some peaks are required. Approach SYNC which reads aloud incoming tweets, but does not alter the fact that the skin was more or less the same car is sold ten years ago .

Concept car : Cadillac Bringing CTS-V Coupe 2010



Cadillac has revealed that a V-Series high-performance variant of the new 2011 Cadillac CTS Coupe will share the spotlight with a new concept at the Detroit auto show next month. The concept is believed to be a pre-production version of either the ATS or XTS small and large cars that Cadillac has been teasing over the past year or so.



So far, Cadillac has released only this tightly cropped teaser picture of the unnamed concept and the promise that it will showcase the latest advances in Cadillac's Art and Science design language. While the picture purposely obscures the vehicle, we can see that it is a sedan and bears significant resemblance to the current CTS but with new headlights and mirrors likely too small to see production.



Based on information provided by our own Todd Lassa during a no-photographs open house at GM headquarters back in August, we believe this concept is the XTS. Lassa described the XTS as having a short axle-to-dash ratio and a grille that blended styling elements of the Sixteen and Converj concepts. The car he was shown was also painted gray while the ATS was painted blue, though GM has had more than enough time to repaint them. The ATS, meanwhile, was described as having a shorter, wider grille to make the car look wider, not taller. This picture appears to suggest a larger car, but the angle makes it difficult to be certain.



If it is the XTS, it will most likely be built on a stretched version of GM's Epsilon II FWD architecture and will likely feature the 3.6L direct-injection V-6 engine and will offer AWD. If it's the ATS, it will be RWD-based and will likely utilize both V-6 and four-cylinder engines. Both cars are planned for a 2011 debut likely as 2012 models.

Concept Car : Scion Hako Coupe



There are many hot opinions floating around at the moment about the Scion Hako concept car and must say I am going to squash those who thinks it is ugly, come on people you have got to be on another planet because this car is class. Ok I need not bang on about the Scion Hako concept car because it will never go into production now will it.

Are you one of those people who thinks the Scion Hako concept car is aesthetically appealing or aesthetically a balls-up? In the automobile world we love our car, it is part of our lives and yes we do care about the looks, the design, features, gizmos etc and this one has it all. This car is in a class of its own, and you have to admit you have not seen any other car like this one. This car does not sit on either side of the good looking fence nor the ugly fence, you either love it or hate it and it is as simple as that in my eyes, and my eyes say it is stunning. The Scion Hako concept car was released at the New York Auto Show back in March 2008 and there are two noticeable things that stand out, and that is the design and the in your face color which is bright orange.

I have an idea where this car can become so famous, can you imagine seeing this car in a Disney Pixar movie, like the movie “Cars”. It is also called the Hako Coupe because of its coupe design, by the way. The windows on this car give you a 360 angle view on the car when you are on the inside, well this is what it looks like from the outside, and the Scion Hako’s headlights are in stunning LED which is a big plus for driving at night. LED lights provide great virtually natural light that is better for seeing than the conventional and standard headlights that have an ugly yellow tint to it. The Hako’s headlights seem to be very wide which makes it even better than most standard cars. My judgement on the Scion Hako concept car is that it looks futuristic but yet modern and I would indeed purchase one because I really do like the look of them, plus I would get one just to annoy the hell out of those that hate it.
