German photographer Dieter Klein chose an interesting subject for his photo series. He is looking for "natural" car cemeteries around the world, places where people have laid their cars to rest and are now overgrown or merged with the environment. Fascinating.
Daimler will bring the renewed M class to the showroom in the "Big Apple", which has been named GLE in accordance with the new model nomenclature. Most of the design changes are on the nose and inside, which is more reminiscent of the C and S classes, the new hybrid version of the engines, which will be able to travel 30 km on electricity alone, and on average will emit only 78 grams of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere. Now he hears the name Mercedes-Benz GLE.
Presidents (John F. Kennedy), Elvis Presley, and Clark Gable once rode in the luxury Lincoln Continental limousine. The American car, which was once the concept of luxury, collapsed when prestigious cars from Europe and Asia "invaded" America. Now the Lincoln Continental is back, albeit without its signature grille. It's been 13 years since it last rolled off the Ford factory, and the sedan, which debuted at the New York Auto Show, goes on sale in 2016.
The renowned Swedish brand is re-entering the Slovenian market, this time with much bolder plans and also with a new iron in the fire - a new flagship called the Volvo XC90. Slovenian buyers can already order this at prices starting at 64,600 euros, and there is also a plug-in hybrid XC90 that can cover distances of up to 40 km on electricity alone.
It was 1993, when Ford announced to the world public that it would offer customers the first global model - the Ford Mondea, which will be sold unchanged in more than 150 markets around the world. The concept caught on immediately and the market success of the Sierra successor only grew. The fourth generation must therefore "fill big shoes", which it plans to do with a performance exterior, plenty of advanced technology, driving characteristics and, last but not least, the price.
Volvo has always been synonymous with safety. Now the Swedish car brand, together with the advertising agency Gray London, has extended its concern for the safety of drivers to the safety of those with whom they share the road - cyclists - with a reflective safety reception with invisible LifePaint paint. The start-up company Albedo100, which produces a spray that increases visibility at night and thus the safety of cyclists and other road users, is also involved in the test project.
At Mercedes-Benz, in the desire for even greater market success, the CLA limousine coupe has now been given a dynamic station wagon rear. The surcharge of 610 euros means 495 liters of luggage space, or 25 more than in the sedan. With prices starting at 28,260, it is a concrete 4,800 euros cheaper than the otherwise more elegant, but much less sporty wagon version of the C-class.
Are you a fan of the iconic Ford Mustang of the first generation from 1964, but the old-timer does not suit you because it is not adapted to today's times? The situation was solved by the car manufacturer Revology Cars from Florida, who created a replica of the original Mustang in a coupe and convertible version for everyone interested, which hides modern technology under the retro body. It has been made to look stunningly like the original, but adapted to modern standards.
The Yamaha Sport Heritage series has a new member, the XV950 Racer motorcycle, which faces a challenging task, as it must continue the tradition of revolutionary models that do not freeze. Although time will tell, the minimalist model with a muscular air-cooled V-Twin engine, agile chassis and clip-on handlebars already gives the Sport Heritage family a new dimension.
Seat is a brand of the Volkswagen group with a distinctly sporty note, but here and there they also offer some off-road specials, such as the Altea freetrack years ago. Well, the Leon x-perience brings just the right replacement for the latter, as it brings an almost off-road ground clearance, always standard four-wheel drive and XDS, and prices from 23,670 euros.
The American start-up company Lyons Motor Car will present at the 2015 New York Auto Show the monstrous LM2 Streamliner, which pulls up to an incredible 467 km/h and reaches 100 km/h in a mere 2.2 seconds. Although it is a concept that, above all, does not come from an established factory, names such as Koenigsegg and Pagani give hope that in the future the LM2 Streamliner will take the title of the fastest car in the world.
If we thought that Vršič could only be reached by car, mountain or road bike, we were seriously mistaken. On June 6, Red Bull Goni Pony invites persistent and brave cyclists to a combined classic - with a Pony bike to Vršič.
