A new generation of Outlanders is on its way, was the announcement made today by Mitsubishi. The now third Outlander will be a greener, safer, more clever and comfortable version of its previous crossover incarnations.

At Skoda these days are busy developing their not yet ready for production “Green E Line” vehicles – a segment of electric cars based on the Octavia Estate.

Other projects concerned with that often work to optimize the TDI and TSI drivetrains and also various transmissions. The gath

In fact it had 2 lines of battery on the screen but now it's  over because the reality of the situation is that weather does affect the efficiency of Li-ion batteries. It's the same frightening story with electric vehicles – what if I run out of juice in the middle of nowhere? Well Nissan are painfully

Electric cars are virtually silent at speeds up to 25 km/h ( 15mph), because of that the risk to others is obvious. This is the reason, why Audi is working on the acoustics of the EVs. You will be able to choose between a sound of a six-cylinder engine, which according to us is the best or the silky smooth V8. The sounds of combustion engines are a constant of road traffic that everyone can associate with a car. “The obvious approach would be to work on the basis of the familiar sound of a

Exagon Engineering created Furtive e-GT  - a race car powered by electricity. It is 2+2 seater, which can achieve the Tesla Roadster’s acceleration – 0 to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds. Exagon Furtive e-GT  is powered by twin Siemens motors producing 340 horsepower. The more important thing is the planned range of 400 km (248.5 miles), before the need for its on-board gasoline motor to kick in to take you the next 400 kilometres. Furtive e-GT could begin production in 2012.

It can travel up to 200 km (124 miles) on a single charge. The batteries are lithium-ion with capacity of 35.5 kWh, when they are de

The original price tag of Chevrolet Volt is $41 000, but obviously the dealers will decided the final price of the car. According to a research in the USA made from Edmunds, who sent an email to a local Chevrolet dealer to ask for a final price of Chevrolet Volt. The curious thing is that the dealer said that their asking price for Volt will be $41 000 plus additional $20 000. So the overall price is a bit over $60 000 for a Chevrolet Volt. The reason of the dealer to ask for this huge pr
