Subaru’s are not known [...]

Golf seems to be the favorite among young designer to show they skills. We get to see a new rendering almost every other day. So what’s so special in this one? Unlike the previous design, this new rendering is much sharper and sporty with 17 inch alloys. The whole design seems to be inspired by the new Passat.

The soon to debut Lotus Elite just got hotter in the internet world. An artist has rendered a Lotus Elite track edition which I am sure even Lotus is thinking of. The rendering shows of an extensive body kit presumably to reduce drag and increase downforce on the car.

The JV between Daimler and Renault is finally kicking into action with news coming from France that the third generation Twingo will be based on the Smart ForFour. This platform (currently under development) promises to be a ‘breath of fresh air’ for both the companies.

Nissan’s Micra has seen a slew of body styles including a convertible and sedan. In the European market, the Micra (known in some places as the Nissan March) is considered a city car which doesn’t see a lot of activity in the back seat. Nissan’s 3-door Micra is a great idea then.
