Video: Chevrolet C7 Corvette digital gauges teased

Chevrolet has released a new teaser video of its new C7 Corvette revealing more interior details and its new digital gauge cluster. With the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette's debut at the Detroit auto show rapidly approaching, the carmaker's latest teaser shows a new 200-mph speedometer and an all-digital screen featuring a large, centralized tachometer and information display. The latest teaser comes two weeks after another video showed the new Corvette testing in the wind tunnel, giving us minor glimpses of the C7. Within the first five seconds you can see a profile shot of the covered-up C7 before some flashes of design sketches.

Porsche shows Cayenne can do off-road – just like the new Range Rover Sport

Porsche shows the new Cayenne S Diesel can do off-road The Porsche Cayenne has come in for some stick since it first arrived a decade ago as the first SUV from Porsche. The world declared the Cayenne too ugly to look at – well, that was the opinion of a certain Mr Clarkson – but anyone who’s lived with a Cayenne will know just how focused it is; it feels like a high-riding M5 to drive and, despite the misconception that sporty SUVs don’t do off-road, it’s remarkably capable when the going gets tough. We’re sure it’s just a coincidence that the 2013 Porsche Performance Drive – from Chisinau to Bratislava – is taking place just after the new Range Rover Sport arrived as a truly capable sporty SUV – with its Land Rover off-road credentials still intact – but the event has given Porsche the chance to show the new Cayenne S Diesel can also do off-road with aplomb.
