Volkswagen's idea of a plug-in off-roader, the Tiguan GTE Active Concept. [ATTACH=CONFIG]n2695[/ATTACH] Powered by a 148 bhp and 184 lb-ft (249 Nm) of torque 1.4 liter engine, the GTE Active Concept is also aided by two electric motors (one for the front wheels and one for the rear), for a total output of 221 bhp. Still, it appears to be enough for the virtual world. [ATTACH=CONFIG]n2696[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]n2697[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]n2698[/ATTACH]

A hydrogen powered H-Tron Quatrro Concept was showcased by Audi at Detroit on the second day of the Auto Show. Audi is pushing the hybrid technology on the heels of Dieselgate scandal which rocked its parent company Volkswagen. Audi is expected to release three plug-in hybrids in the next three years, most likely an A6, A7 and Q6. [CENTER] [/CENTER] [ATTACH=CONFIG]n2744[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]n2745[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]n2746[/ATTACH] H-Tron Concept looks stunning, a tweaked version of the E-Tron Quattro (Audi's Tesla rival electric SUV) which is going in for production soon. H-Tron uses a 110 kW fuel cell in conjuction wiht a 10 kW lithium ion battery pack to power a 140 kW motor in the back and a 90 kW motor in the front. Both motors working in tandem propels the SUV from zero to hundred in just 7 seconds, that is properly fast! [CENTER][ATTACH=CONFIG]n2748[/ATTACH] [LEFT]Refueling which is a major concern with Hybrids, The hydrogen fuel tank can be refilled in less than four minutes. The claimed range is an impressive 600 kilometers![/LEFT] [/CENTER] [ATTACH=CONFIG]n2749[/ATTACH] On the outside H-Tron Concept looks like a station-wagon, but those door handles that is neatly tucked into the body when not in use, blends in with the overall design quite well. [ATTACH=CONFIG]n2750[/ATTACH] [CENTER] [LEFT]Interiors are equally stunning, with multiple screens and the sleek design theme which is futuristic yet functional at the same time. Ambient lighting also looks very interesting inside the H-Tron Concept.[/LEFT] [/CENTER]

Anyway THIS is what I'm really looking forward to: The Lexus LC 500 here's what we know it'll have the RC F 5.0 V8 ( YUMMY) ( for all you geeks that motor is called 2UR-GSE V8.) I personally love the sound that engine makes in the RC-F so I'm sure it'll sound as good if not better in this baby! [ATTACH=CONFIG]n2615[/ATTACH] now to the numbers! 467 Hp and 527 Nm of Torque! in the Rc-F the peak torque arrives at 3800 RPM, so I'm presuming it's the same here ( a tag high in the rev range in my opinion, I'd have wanted it to be lower but heck what would I know, I have never driven it :( or the RC-F ) [B]The FT1 resemblance! [/B] COME ON ! I CANT BE ONLY ONE WHO SEES IT! ( okay, I think inspiration is a better word) LOOK! [ATTACH=CONFIG]n2616[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]n2617[/ATTACH] ​and then there's this angle [ATTACH=CONFIG]n2618[/ATTACH] [IMG]http://www.zigcdn.com/media/photogallery/2014/Jan/detroit-motor-show-2014-toyota-ft-1-concept-16012014-g01_640x480.jpg[/IMG] It's going to be in the $100K range so if it ever sees India it's gonna be in the 1.5 Cr range ! I say it looks special enough to be there but again doesn't have enough brand value from an Indian perspective Come 2017 you'll see it in the showrooms is what Lexus has to say! I say I can't wait for 2017 <3

[USER="20"]NikilSJ[/USER] I dont blame you i had the exact same thoughts but then the moment you put the two side by side ... voila! [IMG]http://www.zigwheels.com/forum/filedata/fetch?id=2576&d=1452583336&type=full[/IMG] it kinda does. [IMG]http://www.diseno-art.com/news_content/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/2014-Bentley-Continental-Flying-Spur-1.jpg[/IMG]

Ah the Lincoln Continental finally breaks cover. First few images of the Continental are on the web now. The concept looked way too cool for a Lincoln, but at least it showed the world that finally the brand was serious about their luxury cars. But the interesting bit when the concept was previewed was when Bentley's chief designer dissed his Lincoln counterpart of plagiarism. Bentley designer Luc Donckerwolke posted on Lincoln designer David Woodhouse’s Facebook page asking him if he wanted the tooling for the Bentley sent to the Lincoln factory. Donckerwolke then went as far as saying that the 2016 Lincoln Continental as a ripoff. “I would have called it a Flying Spur concept and kept the four round lights.” Another designer commented “I thought this was only done in China? Finally a ‘Bentley for the masses’ though...” Images of the production variant below. Tell me, does it look like a Bentley to you?
