Infiniti Q50 [w/Gallery]

Infiniti has unveiled its new Q50 sports sedan at the 2013 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS). At the front, the signature ‘double arch' waved-mesh grille features chrome surrounds while a smooth character line rises from each side, flowing backwards along the sides. A prominent line beginning behind the narrow, tapering headlamps stretches towards the rear before smoothing out underneath the crescent-cut C-pillars that are similar to those seen on the Essence Concept.

Tokyo Motor Show: Mini appears across the globe

FRESH from its world debut at the Cowley plant in which it will be built, the new third-generation Mini has made its Asian debut at the Tokyo Motor Show.

The third generation version will build on that with its enhanced looks and specification.

Nissan LEAF £2500 UK price drop

Nissan has revealed that the LEAF EV will be reduced in price by £2500 with immediate effect and ahead of the launch of the uprated 2013 LEAF. The world hasn’t exactly fallen in love with electric cars, which has as much to do with the fact that an electric car, with its limited range, is never going to be a replacement for a normal ICE car. But compounding the impracticality of the EV as a replacement for the ICE car is the very high prices car makers are charging for electric cars, the sort of prices that mean buyers will probably find the ‘Cheap to Fuel’ EV a more costly option than fuelling a much cheaper comparable iICE car with petrol or diesel.
