Porsche 919 Hybrid (2014) first official pictures

By Ben Pulman First Official Pictures 04 March 2014 07:50 This is the new Porsche 919 Hybrid, and it signals Porsche’s return to the world famous Le Mans 24-hour endurance race after an absence of 16 years. The 919 Hybrid was unveiled this morning at the 2014 Geneva motor show – and a switch from Red Bull Racing to Porsche means this is also Mark Webber’s new company car. You’d be safe taking a punt and guessing it’s not a diesel engine like arch-rivals Audi, but it’s not a naturally aspirated V8 petrol like the one that’ll feature in the new Toyota TS040 either.

Redesigned Ford Focus expected to get 40 mpg highway

The redesigned 2012 Ford Focus will get an estimated 40 mpg in highway driving with an all-aluminum 2.0-liter engine mated to a six-speed, dual dry-clutch automatic transmission. The normally aspirated engine combines variable camshaft timing and high-pressure direct fuel injection to crank out 160 hp and 146 lb-ft of torque. That compares with 140 hp and 136 lb-ft from the aluminum 2.0-liter engine used in the current-generation Focus.

Pagani Huayra

Horatio Pagani took the opportunity of the Geneva motor show to launch the successor to the critically acclaimed Zonda hyper-car. The Huayra builds on the foundations of the Zonda, retaining a clear visual link to its predecessor. Pagani's trademark stylistic details are still present, such as the emphasis on carbon fiber and the quartet of exhausts.
