Honda unveiled the near-production version of its small car Brio at the 27th International Motor Expo 2010 in Thailand on November 30. Honda Brio will be launched in India before Diwali 2011. The company will manufacture this small car at its Greater Noida factory and will likely price the Brio below Rs. 5 lakh, making it the most affordable Honda car in India. The car will compete with the Toyota Etios Liva, Hyundai i10 and i20, Suzuki Swift and Chevrolet Beat. Read our earlier story about the Honda Brio.
The Honda Brio is a very compact hatchback and measures 3.6 m in length, 1.68 m in width and 1.475 m in height. This makes it similar to the Nissan Micra in comparison. Honda has tried to make maximum use of cabin space with some intelligent packaging and space-saving measures. The front of the car features swept-back headlamps with blackened borders and a large Honda logo on a thick chrome strip across the grille. The bumper has a large yawning airdam with integrated fog lamps. Also read: Honda Brio vs Toyota Etios Liva vs Suzuki Swift feature comparison
The interior of the Honda Brio features deep-set meters in the instrument console, quite like the Honda City, a three-spoke steering wheel and 2-DIN music system integrated in the dashboard. Initial photos show extensive use of plastic around the interiors, with a subtle dual-tone combination. The Brio is likely to have only manual HVAC controls, and not climate control. Shown here is the automatic variant of the Brio, but Honda will launch only the manual version initially in India. The car is likely to feature electrically-adjustable mirrors on the top-end variants, as well as airbags.
The front seats of the Honda Brio look supportive and the car has a high stance, making ingress and egress easy. Seen in this picture are two large cupholders for the front seat passengers and angled AC vents for the passenger. The dual-tone beige fabric seats should do well in the Indian market. Legroom looks adequate for the front seats.
The rear doors of the Honda Brio look rather small in comparison to the front, and it’s likely that rear seat ingress and egress may be a little cramped. The design gets a little quirky towards the rear, with the low-set rear windscreen glass also doubling as the hatch. The car features clear-lens jewel like tail-lamps as was originally seen on the Brio concept car. Visibility should be good out of the rear glass because of the low design, but rear seat passengers get limited glass area. None of the variants are likely to have a rear wash-wipe feature.
In profile the Honda Brio looks quite racy, with flowing lines from the front to the rear. The two deep creases in the doors add to the aerodynamic look. The sudden drop towards the rear is also sporty, but has limited boot space due to the design. Seven-spoke alloy wheels on the top-end variant of the Brio look good.
The entire rear windscreen glass is the hatchback for the Honda Brio, quite like the first model Maruti 800 (1984, SS80 model). Boot space seems limited, but then the Brio is essentially meant to be a city car. The initial pictures show that the rear bench seat is not a split type seat, and only the entire seat back can be folded down.
Honda officials unveil the Honda Brio at the 27th International Motor Expo 2010 in Thailand on November 30, 2010.
The first sketch of the Honda Brio that was unveiled in 2009. The final product looks quite true to the original rendering’s shape. The concept picture was of a two-door, with a more pronounced slope towards the rear. The production model, however, has a taller rear end.
This is Ford’s concept car for this year’s IAA Frankfurt Motor Show, the Evos. The car previews brand’s new design language.
Ford Evos is a four-door, four-seat fastback concept with lithium-ion plug-in hybrid powertrain. The concept car has swinging doors that take out the fenders with them as you open them, which make it look like a Transformer or something. But in essence, it could be the new Capri, or the Focus Coupe everybody is anticipating to be revealed at IAA.
Some of its details of course will be used as you see them here on the upcoming models by Ford, things like the head and taillights, or the grille.
Apart from the looks, Evos is also an advanced car in terms of powertrain and technology. It has cloud-based hybrid system which is more sophisticated somehow than conventional systems. Cloud connectivity would provide further opportunities to enhance performance and efficiency by selecting the optimum combination of powertrain modes for any given journey. It can either use electricity to power the car, or to charge the batteries.
The system offers an overall driving range of more than 500 miles (800 kilometres) using the battery and engine.
The Evos also has a cabin built around the driver. The interior architecture features clean and simple surfaces, with a muscular, athletic character to the slim upper instrument panel, enhanced by bold trapezoidal cut-outs. Contrasting these muscular forms, curvaceous cockpit display surfaces sweep down either side of the driver, providing secondary information about vehicle and infotainment systems.

If a recent report is correct, Ferrari is developing a 458 Spider GTS.
While details are scarce, the roadster will feature a glass roof that flips upright and disappears behind the seats. Of course, this cannot be confirmed since previous reports have indicated the 458 Spider will feature a folding hardtop (similar to the one used on the California) or a traditional soft top.
Regardless, the car will feature a 4.5-liter V8 with 570 PS (562 hp / 419 kW) and 540 Nm (398 lb-ft) of torque. It will be connected to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, which should allow it to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in less than 3.6 seconds.
Source: Auto.itPH insiders tell us that cloth is out for new drop-top 458
A folding hard-top 458 has been the subject of much speculation, especially in light of the Ferrari California's folding metal roof. It was thought for the F430 spider that a folding hard-top was too heavy and complex, but it seems Ferrari has solved these problems for the drop-top 458.
Our trusty mole was pretty thin on details, but it seems that the transparent engine cover of the coupe has been dropped, although the 562bhp 4.5-litre V8 beneath it remains thankfully unchanged.
We still don't know if the new roof arrangement will be a glass or metal job, however, or whether it will tuck down behind the seats when open, as some web rumours have predicted.
We'll know more soon, though - the 458 Spider is earmarked for a public debut at the Frankfurt motor show this autumn, so we should see pictures and details of the new car some time later this summer.

Transportation technology today is way beyond our imagination that vehicles today, including cars, motorbikes, and jet planes, offer advanced technology that will give people the utmost benefit. Take cars as an example, many car brands in the market offer cars with various specifications that are very difficult to resist. The 2012 Toyota Camry is one those hi-tech cars that is definitely worth buying. It is a midsize sedan that is powered by a 2.5 liter four cylinder engine. The coolest thing about this engine is that it is supported with electric motor and battery, and they are designed to work well in tandem. Overall, the engine is predicted to be similar as the 7th generation of the Toyota Camry. The fuel rating itself is pretty economical, which is 21 miles per gallon for city driving and 31 miles per gallon for highway driving. The 2012 Toyota Camry will maintain similar exterior size as its predecessor. The design of the exterior underwent minor changes; it features a revamped front fascia with new headlights and better looking side sills. On the other hand, it is expected to feature a roomy cabin, which is one of the main selling points of this car. The dimension of the car is approximately 4810 mm x 1825 mm x 1470 mm. Other features of the cars include anti lock disc brakes, side airbags for passenger sitting at the front seat, as well curtain airbags on the sides for both passengers at the front and at the back.
All in all, we can tell that the new Camry will stay true to the series’ mission as a spacious family sedan. The car will hit the road in style, due to its sporty look and advanced performance. In the official 2012 Toyota Camry teaser video released earlier this month, Akio Toyoda (President and CEO of Toyota Motor Corporation) promises the car to be “the best Camry ever” and “a remarkable car in terms of handling, safety, and fuel economy.” The car itself will be officially released later this Fall. The 2011 edition was the best-selling car in the U.S. last year, so the new edition is expected to retain that title. The 2012 Toyota Camry is one of the most awaited cars of this year due to its great performance and style as well as the fact that it is manufactured by one of the best and leading car brands in the world.
It is speculated that like the previous edition, the new Toyota Camry is available in four models, namely the entry level CE, LE, the sporty SE and XLE. The entry level CE model is equipped with an engine that is able to deliver approximately 158 horsepower and 161 pound-feet of torque. It can achieve 60 miles per hour in only 7.5 seconds. This model also features a five speed manual transmission, 16 inch tires, air conditioning, CD player, six speakers, a steering wheel that is equipped with a tilt and telescoping system, cruise control, height adjustable driver’s seat, and power windows. If you are only looking for the basic features, then the CE model would be good enough for you. On the other hand, the three other models, which are LE, SE and XLE, are equipped with a six speed manual transmission system and all the other basic features of the CE. The XLE is also expected to feature reclineable rear seatbacks to ensure passenger comfort. The fuel ratings of those three models are 19 miles per gallon for city driving and 28 miles per gallon for highway driving. The CE and LE models have 15 cubic feet of trunk space whilst SE and XLE models have 14.5 cubic feet of trunk space.
In terms of security, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has conducted crash tests on the 2012 Toyota Camry. The result is amazing. It earned the perfect point of five stars in all tests. It features Toyota’s new Star Safety System, which provides better vehicle control. The system is a combination of Toyota’s Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) antiskid system, antilock braking system (ABS), and traction control. The rear part of the car, the look comes up very simple and neat. This rear look can be found in entry level and LE models.
