This is Nissan’s brand, a legendary car brand that almost went away. Now plans are made to resurrect the car with a new sport/eco friendly look
As you can see it will look great and it will remain true to the Datsun way, reliability and usefulness.

We will try to find out more about this car

This is the Mazda CX-5 prototype , just a sketch right now but we can already tell that the Japanese car company wants a change .
The CX-5 model will be unveiled at the Moscow Motor Show this year (August) and should be on sale in 2009
This prototype is inspired by the wind , the flow with smooth lines and curves

Beautiful .

This is a concept car from Suzuki . The final version if the Kizashi 3 model will go on sale in 2010 and Suzuki says that they will try to make it as green as possible

Back to the concept car .
The engine is a 3.6l 295bhp V6 engine tuned to be as sporty as it can be , four-wheel drive and a six speed automatic gearbox . Things are already looking good for the mighty silver Kizashi 3 concept

Also we have to specify that this car is part of Suzuki’s plan to access a larger market , to be more appealing to the young people and entire families

This is a top secret concept car developed by BMW. These are the first official pictures of the BMW GINA

It may look like a normal supercar , a bit excentric but it is not . It is covered in a highly durable material that is controlled by hydraulics
It can take many forms , it is easy to change the shape of this car on the go
The GINA Concept should replace the Z4 in the near future . The only sad thing is that the fabric that is covering the car will not be on the final model . Maybe one day this car will be seen on the roads. Untill then let us look at the official presentation movie for the BMW GINA Concept car

Behold the upcoming Vauxhall Astra VXR . A hot hatch that will appear in 2010 ( early concepts will be displayed at the Paris Motor Show )
It will have a 1.8 l engine turbocharged that will do 240 bhp and 0-60 mph in 6 seconds. Top speed 150mph . As you can see the new VXR does not have the old 2l engine because Vauxhall wanted a green hot hatch

The new hot Astra will have huge air intakes , central exhaust , new bodykit (aggressive look) , 19 inch allow wheels , sport seats and although this is a performance car it does not lack the confort: it will have mp3 features and bluetooth and much more

Being built out of light materials the new Astra VXR will be light on its wheels but also with a high level of grip : electronically controlled dampers and stiffened springs make sure that the hot hatch will be stable .

One last detail is that the car will have front wheel drive
The Astra VXR is built to battle the Ford Focus ST and the new Golf GTI

This should be a seven-seat crossover car that is suposed to be a hybrid too
The luxury division is starting the development of the new Renault that will be launched in 2012
Renault stated that this car will be packed with technology starting from the engine and going up to the rear window .

This seven seater car will have a four-wheel-drive transmission and will be created for the road (not the trail)

This car will be built to rival the Mercedes R-Class

The new Toyota Prius will be larger than the present one , more economic  and will provide lower emissions . The is said to be based on the Hybrid X (picture bellow) and will be revealed at the Detroit Motor Show - next year (January)

It is clear that this is the way to the future

The Invicta is powered by a 2.0 liter direct-injection turbo four cylinder 250hp engine connected to  a six-speed automatic transmission.

A fantastic looking car , a muscle car but also a green supercar:

It will be equipped with an electric engine , a lithium-ion battery that can go up to 250 miles before recharging . Even it is an all-electric motor , it will still do 0-60 miles/h in less than six seconds

A great future for all muscle cars

Honda is moving ahead with plans to create its own Scion-like sub-brand, using the emerging Chinese market as the launching point for the new line of cars.

The Japanese company and its Chinese partner, Guangzhou Honda, revealed an unnamed concept at the Beijing motor show that company officials say will be the first production model from the new Honda division.

The car has a sporty three-door hatch, based on the global City/Fit small sedan/hatchback chassis (not the larger U.S.-model Fit), was designed and will be produced in China.

The production for the car begins in 2010, which will be strictly for the Chinese market, at least at the start of production. The new model will be powered by a 1.8-liter engine.
