Paris Motor Show, which opened its gates this fall, revealed the intense struggle between two generations of vehicles. Many of the cars displayed in the exhibition will renew, in the following months, the European automobile market, while most of the electronic concepts will have to wait at least a year to find the right path to showrooms. The new car market in Europe is ready to be overwhelmed by a new generation of vehicles. We are thinking of cars which are more accessorized, full of electronic command and control systems, equipped with engines that...

On a market that is struggling not to fall, car manufacturers want to attract customers with new environmentally-friendly vehicles. It seems that they are not joking at all, as long as the electric concepts and hybrids did not “miss” Paris Motor Show 2010. “While others are just presenting their new hybrid generation, we have already sold 2.8 millions of cars featuring this technology. And the selling percentage has risen with 65%.” - Didier Leroy, president of Toyota Motor Europe, illustrates as suggestive as possible how bitter the battle is at...

The brand that has captured the attention at Paris Motor Show 2010 is definitely Lotus and their concept supercars. But how many they have brought? Lotus presented at the Paris Motor Show an incredible amount of news. We speak of five totally new models. The “Dawn of a New Era” for the House of Hethel, announced for months by the CEO Dany Bahar, took in the French capital these awesome concepts –  the new Esprit, Elan, Elite, Elise and the most unusual: Eterne. All these models come into production and will be available, some with hybrid...

This year, at Paris Motor Show, manufacturers have tried to do their best in displaying the most alluring images to their visitors.

The Paris Motor Show 2010 has it all, the beautiful women which represent the salt and pepper of such manifestations having no chance to skip the event. The ladies...

We know that soap operas are not part of your daily schedule, but today we are going to talk a little bit about Mexico. Not about the amusing Mariachi or their spicy foods, but about the direct result of the fact that this nation has some strong DNA links with the Italians: a hysterical and maybe doubtful supercar. Thus, the Mexicans brought to Paris Motor Show 2010 their latest creation, Mastretta MXT. It is a two seats sport car which looks much alike Lotus. Mastretta manufacturers will create 150 units next year, although they hope they will be able to...

Toyota has given up to the denomination of Yaris Verso, because at the Paris Motor Show 2010 they showed us the new small class MPV: Toyota Verso-S. On the Japanese market there has also appeared a Yaris big brother, named Ractis. It is practically the successor of Yaris Verso, a variant which has disappeared from the European automobile market for some time. However, at Paris Motor Show 2010, the Japanese have presented the world premiere of the new Toyota Verso-S model, a smaller brother of Verso monovolume (derived from the compact Auris vehicle) which...
