29 October 2008 @ 6:51Audi A1 Sportback hybrid makes an appearance

Audi Ai SportbackI love the idea of hybrid and all-electric vehicles, but so often they are accompanied by uninspired and sleepy styling. The Audi A1 Sportback, on the other hand, is quite the looker. Not only does the Audi A1 Sportback look good, but it performs reasonably well too. In hybrid mode, the A1 can go from [...]

8 October 2008 @ 15:15V12 RC Car Engine

Remember the V8 engine made out of LEGO’s? That was impressive, but this small-scale V12 replica built by Ralf Drendel is even more impressive.

Ghostbusters Ecto-1Now this is a car I would love to have — the Ghostbusters Ecto-1. You sure wouldn’t win any gas conservation awards driving this 5000-pound-beast, but, of course, the wasted gas would be worthwhile for all the attention you would receive driving the Ecto-1, right? The Ecto-1 is currently on auction at eBay Motors until [...]

As the parent of a teenager, I have to say that Ford’s introduction of their MyKey parental control system would be a greatly welcomed feature. The MyKey allows parents to limit the vehicle’s top speed as well as limit the audio system’s maximum volume level. Other options can be set such as the inability to [...]

This isn’t K.I.T.T., but it’s almost as technologically advanced. User LaroCroft at the German forum MR2forum.de is going to sell his totally tricked out Toyota MR2. This is a car that any geek could fall in love with. Check out the details in this thread.

26 June 2008 @ 15:15ZAP Alias 3-wheeled electric car

ZAP AliasWhat you see here is just a body prototype for a 3-wheeled elctric car without any specific drivetrain details, other than electric, 100-mile range, and 100mph top speed. Interesting nevertheless. The prototype was design by Applied Technologies in Maumee, OH, and will be shipped to California where a team will work on the drivetrain for [...]
