We thought owning a Rolls-Royce Ghost would be a privilege in itself, but if that’s not exclusive to you, renowned tuner Mansory may have just the solution.inline_mediumwraptextright28276762/features/news/1003_mansory_rolls_royce_ghostmansory-rolls-royce-ghost-front-three-quarters-passenger.jpgTrue

While we knew Porsche was planning a hybrid Porsche Cayenne for the Geneva show, news of a hybrid 911 admittedly caught us a little off guard. But the Porsche 911 GT3 R Hybrid race car, which will join the Cayenne on Porsche's Geneva stand, is a far cry from your conventional hybrid.inline_mediumwraptextright28272889/green/news/1003_2011_porsche_911_gt3_r_hybrid1003_03_z+2011_porsche_911_gt3_r_hybrid+front_three_quarter_view.JPG.jpgTrue

Though Audi still believes hybrid vehicles are merely a stopover on the way to full-electrification, the company is somewhat reluctantly building several hybrid models that it hopes will lead the way to full-electric vehicles in the future. One of the first results of this plan is the upcoming Audi A8 Hybrid.inline_mediumwraptextright32453100/green/news/1003_audi_a8_hybridaudi-a8-hybrid-front-three-quarters-static-passenger.jpgTrue

Ladies and gentleman, brace yourself for the next generation of metro mobility, at least in the eyes of Swiss boutique automaker and tuner Rinspeed and its mad scientist, Frank Rinderknecht.

Switzerland's latest limited-volume production car made its world debut in Geneva (where else?), reviving a storied name that once adorned some of the world's most expensive cars. Striving not to break that tradition, the new car lists for 700,000 Euro ($949,300 by today's exchange rate). At first glance, that seems excessive, considering that it is largely based on the Audi R8 5.2, which tops out at 163,210 Euro ($221,300) in Germany.inline_mediumwraptextright28273573/features/news/1003_hispano_suiza_supercarhispano-suiza-side-view-passenger.jpgTrue
