Jaguar is returning to motorsport in 2016, as it will participate in the Electric Formula World Championship (Formula E) in the coming season. The new member of the Formula E family has also already received the blessing of the International Automobile Federation (FIA), and you can see the e-beast with which the Brits will compete with their rivals in detail below.

The new Mercedes-Benz C Coupé is a car that all coupe lovers will fall in love with. With a silhouette strongly reminiscent of the larger S coupe, it expresses the definition of modern luxury and an athletic sports character. The Mercedes-Benz C Coupé is the cherry on top of the latest product line from Mercedes-Benz and design master Robert Lešnik.
If we said that the Citroën Cactus M concept was a kind of successor to the Citroën Mehari from 1968, the Citroën E-Mehari is a purebred modern version of the legendary model, which is more than just an updated version of its predecessor. This one probably has the most varied "clientele", since on the one hand it was a leisure vehicle, and on the other a "physicist" driven by farmers and soldiers. The modern derivative is a four-seater pleasure cabriolet with electric drive that exudes freshness and difference.
The McLaren 675LT Spider is the fifth model that McLaren presented in 2015. The British rounded off the year with a convertible, which is not new news, but its characteristics are fresh. It is a roofless version of the 675LT model with a hard folding top that can be stowed up to a speed of 30 km/h. It was mounted on 19- or 20-inch alloy wheels surrounded by P Zero Trofeo R tires, and with a top speed of 326 km/h, the McLaren 675LT Spider is considered the fastest McLaren convertible without a roof over its head.
McLaren broke all the rules to create a Formula 1 concept car and presented a potential Formula 1 car of the future. And what happened when engineers, who are otherwise bombarded from all sides with a thousand and one rules and restrictions, were given a completely free hand? They poured their "frustration" into the MP4-X concept, which promises more exciting times in Formula 1 than today.
The Volvo S90 is a premium sedan from the Swedish car manufacturer, which steps into the shoes of the S80 model, as it did not do well in a class in which German cars do not give the competition much room to breathe. The S90 is a completely new story, and apart from the blood relationship (premium family), it has little in common with its predecessor in terms of content and appearance. Previously, the Volvo S90 was inspired by its relative from the "second generation", the SUV Volvo XC90, after which it summarized all modern technologies and engine range.
After Porsche revamped the 911 Carrera, the 911 Turbo and 911 Turbo S models also went under the knife, but in addition to the new look, they also show a bit more muscle compared to their predecessors. The car will be presented live to the public for the first time at the Detroit Auto Show in January, and from there you will go almost directly to the car showrooms.
The elegant Porsche Design 1919 wristwatches are named after the founding year of the Bauhaus art movement, which was founded as a school in 1919 in Weimar, Germany by Walter Gropius. The watch embodies the philosophy of the famous movement that has developed a recognizable style. This one was heavily influenced by usability and tried to connect art and practical design work. This philosophy is also followed by the new Porsche wristwatches, which, like their cars, are not cheap. You'll need to shell out at least US$3,400 for a single one.
Some celebrities like to splurge with their money and indulge in things for amounts that are hard for the common man to imagine. Many of them struggled to get by from month to month before fame and are sometimes not used to being in the position they are in now, surrounded by a mountain of money. And what do they do with it? Are they investing it wisely? Donate it to the less fortunate and to charity? Some of them. More of them spend their green money to buy villas, expensive cars, dresses and the like. Luxury goods are just too tempting and the following celebrities could not resist the temptation. Here are 10 incredibly expensive celebrity purchases of 2015.
"Imitation is the most overt form of flattery," said Charles Caleb Colton, and the new BMW R nineT Scrambler certainly nods to that. It is the conceptual twin of Ducati's Scrambler, a motorcycle that takes the rider anywhere for less than $10,000. Information that borders on science fiction in the motorcycling world. However, the BMW R nineT Scrambler is somewhat more exclusive.
Porsche is a name in the automotive world that needs no special introduction. There is probably no person in this world who has not heard of him. He produced a series of iconic models that are among the most sought-after collector's items. Although to the eye of the uninitiated it will seem that every Porsche is almost the same as any other, but for car lovers, this German manufacturer from Stuttgart has signed many engineering excesses. So many that it was hard to choose just 10! Here are the 10 most legendary Porsches of all time.
The Mercedes-Benz GLS is actually the new Mercedes-Benz GL, i.e. the new largest SUV of this elite German car brand. But the renovation was so specific that it added the letter S to its name in the style of smart phones. Now the biggest Mercedes giant will compete even more easily with its rivals on the road, but on the off-road it was completely left without it.
