People know it's there; they talk about it, but no one wants to make the drive. It's a mysterious land that magically produces funky furniture IKEA, cell phones Ericsson and freakishly beautiful people Ingrid Bergman. Since the Miss Universe pageant began more than 50 years ago, no European country has had more winners than Sweden. Did I mention my wife is Swedish? Now, the Swedes have invaded the small premium crossover segment with Volvo's 2010 XC60 with as much vigor as... Full article...

Before I could muster an answer to my 17-year-old daughter's question, she spotted a new Ford Mustang. "That's a cool car, too," she said, as I drove her to school one morning. There followed a brief and poorly received lecture from me on why a powerful rear-wheel-drive sports model is probably not the best choice for a teenager's first car. Further efforts to ascertain what makes the Mustang and Camaro "cool" in a 17-year-old's opinion did not reveal much. But the... Full article...

The ‘Sprit’ is one such vehicle which carries style along with substance and elegant aerodynamic design with emission-free travel making it a wonderful and practical blueprint for all the vehicles which...

The Saab luxury sedan goes asymmetric in design, pushing the driver a bit ahead of the first seat passenger. Windscreen on the four-seater concept follows the asymmetry and creates a bubble around the driver’s head. Doors on the concept also follow asymmetry; the passenger side has one large door, while the... Full article...

The brand is far from cars, and designers usually build upon the designs of established car corporations and follow the design language. The designer’s interpretationfor the Fiole concept is a luxury sports car with a 2+2 seating arrangement. The design looks good, and is based on the black-white contrast so prevalent with Chanel. She has created quite a car; we’re tempted to make parallels with the Batmobile, but... Full article...

It gets a front mounted electric engine for power, but the most striking part of the design is its use of Neon lights, for not just a flashy body, but even for headlamps and tail lights. The lights run across the length of the body, making it easily recognizable at night, but the job they do as headlights is most likely not very useful. More so... Full article...

The design considers the worst case scenario effect of global warming; a time when sea levels have risen dramatically.
