Lexus IS 2009, minor changes
Lexus IS 2009 to present to the European market, where as you can see from the pictures the aesthetic changes are not very important, because only he changed some in the optics, and on the grid at the bottom. But when it comes to internal change if, as now, with this edition 2009, the IS has better finishes and endings.
If you look in more detail, we can see that its optics are more pleasant and refined and that the grille is more squared, with a new design of the chromed around him. At its bottom there is a new appreciation and two new lights rompenieblas.
Side by enrolling in a new chromed on the windows, assimilate more with the tax on the LS, and clear further, a new tire with a very nice design. On the back slightly changed the optics and its bottom is now much more current.
With regard to the domestic Japanese company has not given any pictures of her, for now. But it seems that the change that was here, has given him a new air of life to the model. The engine with which it is marketed will be a 2.0-liter D4D 150 hp.
Lexus has not yet given all the details of this model, but surely will when the Salon de Paris in the near days.
Opel Astra 2010, first impressions
Opel unveiled the first images of the new Astra 2010, where as we can see, incorporating the stylistic features of the Insignia model more prominent, until now, Opel.
In the only image that gave the firm (visible), we can see that the new Astra will be more aerodynamic and will have a more fluid line. The design as we can see, it will be much more attractive, which in turn left a bit that style conservative who continued using the signature somehow, in current models. In addition it must be borne in mind that this model will belong to several firms GM later, which we advance some details of other vehicles not belonging to Opel, Holden and Saturn or.
The model will be launched globally next year, in the Salon of Frankfurt, where we’ll see with all variants of bodywork (hachback, saloon, cabriolet, coupe, wagon and TwinTop). The Astra 2010 incorporate the new Delta platform of the group. This will be shared with other models from other brands, as well as Saab and Chevrolet.

Toyota IQ 2008, will be officially presented in Paris
Toyota worldwide to submit their small CITYC, the IQ, at the Paris Auto Salon. This as we see is a concept that the Japanese brand has been evolving a long time ago now, since the signing last year showed several times a prototype of the device, in most of the rooms, so we came to warn his future landing.
Toyota to the name chosen by IQ for this model, where the "I" is for innovation and individualism and the "Q" is quality and Cubic. The design of the small Japanese model is based on some current models of the brand, such as the Yaris and Auris, but unlike them, the IQ has another goal and another class of customer.
At the front, the IQ stands out for having some original optics and a nice design, which makes a very good combination with the logo of the brand and with small outlets that are, one in the middle and bottom. The side is easy, but with some interesting details, like the remarkable completion of the second window and a door wide enough. And in his rear, is where we see the most radical change with respect to other models of the brand, as its optical continuous line of the side window (with several cuts on the same optical) and some that make pasaruedas paragolpes.
In the case of the interior, we see a design and quality, and characteristic of the Japanese, where the chrome, the computer aboard and purple detail of the steering wheel, make this an IQ car with a formidable future.
During the Salon de Paris, Toyota will provide us more information. Enjoy the images.
Honda Insight Concept, the latest from Paris
Honda officially presented the first images of its prototype Insight. This model as we can see, this thought out and designed to attack the Prius, Toyota’s vehicle to change the way you see the hybrid models.
The Insight, as I said earlier attacked mercilessly to the Prius, where as seen in the picture, until the design has something to do with the model of Toyota. Of course, this is more modern and has a better handling of the electrical system. But at the same time remains, as a basis, the same mechanics of the Civic IMA.
The new model of Honda, will mark an important change, since they will see in another way this hybrid technology. This also improved in all respects, with respect to their ancestors, as in the previous Insight and clear of the current Prius. What still remains in doubt is soon going to assert, as if it is very expensive, the model will not have the expected success.
As for the aesthetic model is very nice, because its continuous line in the party already imposed by the FC-X Clarity, the car largest of the new ideology of the Japanese brand.
Its front features a redesigned grille with a chrome beauty (light blue for behind), in combination with a long and thin optics in their design, and also, along with a low chrome-style Volkswagen. The sidebar is simple, (with some air to the Prius) but with some wheels of a spectacular design. And in the back, so you can see, has a completion similar to Prius, but with completely different lenses.
The price of Insight is $ 22,600, (we presume) and his rival current worth 21,500 U.S. dollars. But equally it must be borne in mind that the new Prius is not yet present, which assumes that the new Toyota model is more expensive than the current one. The goal with the Insight, is to reach annual sales of 500,000 units per year.
Centennial Chevrolet Corvette Concept, new images
Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen, is the name of the second installment of this saga, which will result in addition to an incredible history and an impressive amount of cars. A prototype that nobody expected, this is undoubtedly the Centennial Corvette, a super sports that enables us to think, if this prototype will have to do with the future Corvette C7.
The new images of this amazing prototype, shows us in more detail as are their lines, where as we can see are extremely aggressive and has a clear inspiration in the previous Corvette.
Its trunk, with the characteristic pointed end, is the legendary Corvette Stingray in the 70s, one of the most remembered versions of the American glory. Towards the sides at the front, we see a shot with a design that seemed to grip and the hood, we find some small and thin optical and on a level with very aggressive.
In the rear, are its lines converge perfectly, because everything is in continuity, something that we can see the bonnet and roof. The rear windshield is divided in two, with a distinctly aeronautical air, as its logo and its name suggests is based on the warship Stealth (clear that saving distances). But apart from this, the Centennial surprised by the design of its air intakes, as they have the same trait that front, but with much greater proportions, and finally we have the four chrome exhaust outlets and the logo of itself model.
As I had mentioned in other reports, not only is this incredible machine, but also the Volt, the Camaro Concept of the one (with some changes), the Beat, the Trax, the Hummer and now, with the latest information we can confirm we will have the impressive prototype Cadillac Cien. A ship that present Cadillac a few years ago.
New Model of the Ford Fiesta
Considerably the new Ford Fiesta is one of the B-segment cars more expected in Spain. Since it will be on sale from next month of October, with coachwork of three up to five doors. Stressing turn its range and its good and excellent relationship today is very little in the market, which is money.
It has been known that the new Ford Fiesta is not for sale to the finish on Global Warming although Ford is rumored that Spain came later. For the time being attempted directing demand towards a little more expensive models such as the Peugeot 207, with a strong demand for high-end versions.
The company finally decided to retain the name that has lasted 30 years on the market, after concluding his great success and its great popularity, and that cars which have led not have left negative memories for our creators.
The two versions that come out in Europe will have a minimal difference in details of the prototype. Designers and Engineers for the great company Ford, have done a wonderful job of preserving the attractiveness of design Martin Smith in the car production, something that is very difficult since most of the machines are not always able to perform certain ways.
Ford to see the festival can deduct a big difference as it is its length, as it consists of a bigger picture, because the absorption of energy upon impact.
Referring to what he has to do with the gear boxes, consists of a five-speed manual box across the range, except for the 1.4 liters of gasoline that can be purchased with a four-speed automatic change possible.

Renewing the Audi ABT
The creators of the Audi RS6 thought in a more compact version and decided to change it through their power and bring up the 700 horses without even despeinarlo. All this without neglecting their form and style as versatile, as it does not need major reforms in the engine.
The only thing that was done was appropriate to change its ECU thus succeeded in obtaining its 700 horses, about 120 more than the last model, and in turn raise the maximum torque to 800Nm, giving it an impressive power. Given this conditioning can imagine unimaginable figures, such as 5 seconds for the 0-100km/hy speeds such as 300km / h, as long as the deletion of the limitation that the electronic entry into the 250 km / h, who bring these models from Audi . Externally, we can not give many details novel, since almost all its comforts and its internal security are the same.
The company decided to renew the Audi RS6 version, because they saw that their exterior design as interior should be injected by a more powerful, thus making it a unique model in inimitable. Given all these characteristics we can conclude the RS6 version as a luxurious version, in turn injected power and elegance. Basically, his characterization is because they almost always bare in their preparations visual, as well as providing engines for VAG group with relatively moderate descent. All this description makes the Audi ABT a machine to compete, and to look for descrestar. The company is very motivated by this new version, and expect a lot from this machine.
Volkswagen Passat Wagon CC, recreation
On the web MotorAuthority U.S., are very obsessed lately with lots glories and turns of old models and versions that may never be realized. One of these versions, almost impossible, is that of a Passat Wagon CC, because as we saw in other articles Volkswagen has other plans, where probably a version of the Passat Wagon CC is not there.
In the picture, what we see is a side view of the course model, where we see that the front will not undergo any change, but if the new volume is going to affect the side vision of the car and the rear. In the case of lateral what we see is a widening of the rear window, where thanks to this change the third window is located in an acceptable manner in the car. And what we can see your rear is a window that will be launched and some very large optics.
As we see, the changes earned the incredible Passat CC, repairing his image dramatically. But in my opinion, really do not know if Volkswagen has a version as this thought for the future. What if, if it comes to marketing Wagon would be the first of a four-door coupe segment of upmarket saloons, a detail that I think that would be the only purpose for which Volkswagen could produce it, but I really do not I think it worthwhile, since the first have in mind to enhance its entire range of small models (Golf, Polo, Lupo, etc.) which suggests that for now they are not going to walk into another segment. But like the Volkswagen has the final say, there gives us a surprise.
Hyundai I20, the first image before Paris
The Korean company Hyundai, I present the first image, (long-awaited by the way) of its new small model and the I20, which as we know it is neither more nor less than the replacement of Athos, one of the great models of this firm.
The I20 will be officially presented at the Paris Salon in a couple of weeks, where the Korean brand will give us more details about how it will be their new model.
As well told them this will be the replacement of Atos, but still not confirm if the mark to replace Getz, (the model, which currently has sales in the signing in Europe), since that shares much of its dimensions.
As we see in images, and as they come repeating on several occasions, the Korean brand has improved dramatically in quality, finish and design. The I20 it finds, because if you look in detail we will appreciate this great distinction it has with respect to its previous models.
Hyundai just gave us the first image of the I20, where as we can see the design is based largely on the I30, as the lower part Grilled and have much to do with this model. In the case of the optics, has a certain resemblance to those used in the Peugeot 307. And on the side, we see a very modern design of window and a prominent line around its bottom.
The new I20 will have a new engine, this is called Kappa and 1249 cm3 and gives 78 hp at 6,000 rpm with a maximum torque of 12.0 mkg at 4,000 r.p.m. In addition will also have an option Blue, which is the name that he puts his signature to ecological models, this will be a 1.4 liter diesel CRDi which gives 90 HP and 220 Nm of torque, with a manual gearbox with six speeds and CO2 emissions of just 99 g / km.
