Audi A2 Concept: official pictures

Plus there is a brand known and recognized, unless we take risks to avoid failure. Because of the status that we acquired, they are indeed much more sensational than the other. Talk to his Audi A2, a small minivan that has a total oven in the early 2000s.

What brand vaccinated? Not at all, since it has to give him another chance, in the same form of mini-legged. However, the A2 goes to the page and is available in electric version for the new decade.

For now, it's just a concept, but one can not be taken in front of his realism! 3.80 meters long and 1.49 meters high, the A2 can not pick just 4 passengers.



 


Question look, it will hardly be surprised, the latter containing the A2 codes of the firm. It also resembles a big A1, with a silhouette similar (roof arch plunging, inclined bezel ...). The only different is the band of light that goes through the flanks, linking headlights and lights.





The interior architecture is stripped, the dashboard was limited to a wheel with a digital instrumentation and a central screen. Such a design can turn the corner in the series, we highly doubt. Audi has chosen to feature, for example with a flat floor, and clear, with bright colors and the presence of a glass roof electro chrome.

However, we still do not know anything about mechanics. Encode a secret that should be kept to Frankfurt.

Frankfurt 2011: Jaguar C-X16 Concept, official photos and info

Martin Smith have in common, Peter Schreyer, or Ian Callum, except that they are car designers? They all three knew revive a brand (or save) them concocting a new design language. The first two work well for Ford and Kia, while the third officiates at Jaguar.

 The revolution has been the design of the UK is one of the most spectacular in recent years in the world of the car. Not that the Jaguar style is as original or remarkable, but because it has permanently abandon all references to the past, even scare away the regulars. A little evil for a greater good.





 The XF set the tone. It enabled the brand to attract new customers and allow Jaguar to return to the path of profits. What it does it can embark on new projects, oriented more fun and sportsmanship. The brand prepares a hybrid supercar (the C-X75) and announced through the concept of a future small cut entry-level Boxster rival

Toyota Yaris 3

The most French of Japanese, as made in Valenciennes, sucking will pay dearly for its new and pretty face and the novelty it represents? If it is obviously no question of seeing it cut prices as its competitors (for example, € 9 990 for a Clio 3), the Yaris will be 3 next budget, however well placed, especially with the diesel version that s 'will display more than € 2 000 cheaper than the equivalent Renault and Clio. This means the ambitions of the Japanese ...
But be careful, choosing the entry-level model, you will just minimal equipment: no tachometer, air conditioning or much less dashboard foamed plastic, deprivation is almost monastic.

Alas, alas, three times, the Lotus Ephemera aptly named since it is not a real concept created by Lotus, but a virtual concept is the work of designer Mael Oberkampf has made ​​fun of his drawing the Lotus dreams, which mixes some of his favorite cars genes, the TVR, Peugeot and Aston Martin. And the whole is coherent, which makes us regret even more the uniqueness of the virtual machine!
