Chevrolet Corvette C7 Stingray (2014)

Chevrolet Corvette C7 Stingray (2014) : Chevrolet is redefining modern performance with the debut of the all-new Chevrolet Corvette C7 Stingray. And only a Corvette with the perfect balance of technology, design and performance can wear the iconic Stingray designation.

The 2014 Corvette Stingray is the most powerful standard model ever, with an estimated 450 horsepower (335 kW) and 450 lb.-ft. of torque (610 Nm). It is also the most capable standard model ever, able to accelerate from 0-60 in less than four seconds and achieve more than 1g in cornering grip. It is expected to be the most fuel-efficient Chevrolet Corvette, exceeding the EPA-estimated 26 mpg of the previous model.

"Like the '63 Sting Ray, the best Corvettes embodied performance leadership, delivering cutting-edge technologies, breathtaking design and awe-inspiring driving experiences," said General Motors North America President Mark Reuss. "The all-new Corvette goes farther than ever, thanks to today's advancements in design, technology and engineering."

2011 Jaguar C-X16 Concept

Jaguar may be calling its concept the C-X16, but we believe the production car will be named XE-C-X seems to be Jaguar’s concept-naming strategy of late, with last year’s turbine-hybrid hypercar C-X75 concept using the nomenclature. Whatever it is called, Jaguar director of design Ian Callum promises the production version of the Jaguar C-X16 will be “beautiful, innovative, and [look] firmly to the future.”  We have few problems with the way any Aston Martin looks, and the details in the sketch—the XKR-S-like lower front intakes and XF-style taillights—appear to be all Jaguar.Finally, the clipped front and rear overhangs, short wheelbase, and fastback proportions are noticeably more athletic than the XK’s looser grand touring style.

Interior Design
The singularity of purpose exhibited by the exterior styling of the Jaguar C-X16 Concept is reinforced the moment the door is opened, whereupon driver and passenger are greeted by a dramatic red interior trimmed in the finest materials; leather, Suedecloth, anodised machined aluminium, carbon-fibre and dark chrome.

2011 Audi A2 Concept

The Audi A2 joins the S6 sedan and Avant, S7, S8, the Urban Concept, and the Urban Concept Spyder. The concept is loaded with contemporary Audi connectivity tech, including Bluetooth, wireless internet, Google Earth and Street View navigation screen overlays, Audi traffic information, and Google point-of-interest search.

The chunky concept’s stance is helped by its two-piece 18-inch wheels. Audi amped up the A2’s exterior flair with lights—lots of lights. When the driver activates the A2’s turn signal, pulses of light run down the side of the car in step with the turn indicators. Ensuring that the body-side lighting doesn’t steal the show, the A2 concept’s headlights and rear fog light feature advanced lighting technology as well. The car’s head- and taillights utilize matrix-beam lighting, which Audi is referring to as the next step in LED technology—it’s essentially a cluster of LEDs and small reflectors that intensify the headlight’s beam.
