Mercedes CLS63 AMG gets more power for 2013

You wait for ages for a Mercedes four-door with supercar performance, and then two come along at once. Joining the facelifted E63 AMG saloon and estate unveiled this week are uprated versions of the CLS63 four-door coupe and Shooting Brake estate - packing a revised model range, and extra power.

Twizy Renault Sport F1 concept is a completely bonkers EV

Based on the  strange little Renault Twizy EV commuter golf buggy, the Twizy Renaultsport F1 concept gets a mad body kit to make it look like something out of a Star Wars film, with huge wings, side pods, a rear diffuser and a yellow paint job that evokes Renault’s sporting heritage. But it’s under the skin where the interesting stuff lurks. Renault has fitted the Twizy with an F1 inspired KERS system that fits where the back seat used to be (yes, the F1 Twizy is a toy just for one) which chucks an extra 79bhp at the Twizy’s existing electric motor when fully charged, enough to scoot the F1 Twizy to 62mph in just 6 seconds.
