Aston Martin AM 310 Vanquish

Aston Martin has released details of its 2013 AM 310 Vanquish, the modern interpretation of its classic luxury sports car which is set to replace the DBS. One-77 design cues such as the flowing waistline and LED light blade rear clusters and new design elements such as the lift-reducing rear Aero Duct, bonnet vents, sculpted roof and side strakes feature. A splitter, light-catching side skirts and a rear diffuser form a near-continuous ring of exposed carbon fiber at the base of the car.

Range Rover Evoque by Project Kahn Arrives – minus Cosworth tweaks

Range Rover Evoque by Project Kahn Project Kahn has revealed their take on the Range Rover Evoque, with a cosmetic treatment but no Cosworth power boost. Over a year ago – before the Range Rover Evoque started to hit the roads – Bradford car customiser Project Kahn revealed their take on the Evoque complete with unspecified Cosworth power upgrades. But that idea seems not to have borne fruit, and instead we get an Evoque from Kahn with a purely cosmetic take on Land Rover’s new baby.

VW Touareg BlueMotion hits the UK

Volkswagen has announced the VW Touareg BlueMotion for the UK Offering improved economy and lower emissions, the Touareg BlueMotion manages to drop in to a lower Co2 band by emitting 219g/km (a reduction from 244g/km on the V6 TDi) and it delivers 34mpg as opposed to 30.4mpg on the V7 TDi. These improvements have been achieved by the usual ECU tweaking, low rolling resistance tyres, some aerodynamic tweaks and a lower ride height (exactly the same sort of stuff that Ford has done on the EConetic range). And the penalty for the lower emissions and better economy is very slight, with the Touareg BlueMotion still managing the 0-60mph in 8.5 seconds and a top speed of  126mph.
