In North America, the hottest new Peugeot money can buy is a gourmet pepper grinder dressed in a bright red lacquer finish. In Europe, however, that’s hardly the case. Lest you think Volkswagen gets to hog the hot hatch spotlight at the 2013 Frankfurt motor show with its new Golf R, allow us to introduce you to the Peugeot 308R Concept, which has all the makings of a GTI or Focus ST rival – assuming, of course, it ever moves past the concept stage.

DEARBORN, MICHIGAN – Even in a world of One Ford, the automaker has no plans to sell a production version of its S-Max Frankfurt auto show concept in North America.

After showing an abstract teaser photo, Infiniti has released this image of the Q30 concept that debuts publicly at the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show. The luxury brand describes the Q30 as "the next step in Infiniti's foray into new premium segments," by which it specifically means segments shopped by younger customers. The Infiniti Q30 will compete with cars such as the Audi A3, the BMW 1 Series, and the Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class for the dollars of younger drivers. It will slot beneath the Q50 sedan (née G37) in the Infiniti range.
