Main > Car Makers News > Cadillac > Cadillac Converj The Cadillac Converj is still just a concept. Even though I'm far from the only motor journalist to have gushed over the star of the North American International Auto Show, General Motors' brass hasn't given a production version the green light. To refresh your memory, the Converj is a sexy 2+2 coupe riding on a version of the Chevrolet Volt's Voltec platform, powered by a 16 kW set of lithium-ion batteries with a 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine for recharging purposes only. We'll have more details in an... Full article...

The name of the concept points straight towards its inspiration, the Manta fish. The inspiration manifests itself in the form of fluid curves and lines on the car, with a somewhat “soft” appearance. Designers however, did not forget that the concept bears the name of McLaren and gave it a fairly good dose of the automaker’s design-language. The concept isn’t meant to be an... Full article...

Getting its inspiration from airships, the exterior combines conventional styling of luxury sedans with the styling of airships. A very distinctive design feature is a line that runs all the way from the hood, to the roofline, and finally till the rear. Interior combines the luxury of sedans with the finesse of first class air travel. The front seats can swivel 180 degrees to face the rear seats when the car... Full article...

Although the prototype in question still had some camouflage over the front and rear fascias, there are notable changes in store for the next-generation WRX STI. If it's the chrome-trimmed nose of the WRX that offends you, then you'll be happy to know that the STI should arrive with a more stylish snout... Full article...

French car designer Mayeul Walser has made sure that green cars can keep your style intact with a concept car he calls the Saab Fashionista.

Nissan's NuVu, or 'New View,' city car concept is just that. It may make you smile, laugh, do a double-take, shake your head, draw you in for a closer look, or all of the above. One thing you can't do, however, is ignore it. NuVu is nothing short of a complete rethinking of the car's role in an urban environment. It's not designed for highway use or cross-country travel, but rather just zipping around on congested city streets and squeezing into... Full article...

The Ford Shelby GT500 Mustang, I say so what? Why do you need all that power? Where can you use it? Yet, Ford tries to build buzz with these kinds of vehicles. Forget the muscle cars. I say that if Ford could start selling the Reflex hybrid vehicle, right now, at a competitive price, they would have their biggest seller in years.

The Toyota FT-HS hybrid sports concept vehicle is different - thankfully. First, this concept hybrid car is being built on a production-ready platform, so Toyota is essentially ready to produce this t-roof hybrid sports car if they would like to, and let's hope they do. Second, what is really intriguing about this vehicle is what it says about the potential of hybrid... Full article...

It seems that Honda is aiming at the same kind of publicity coup again with its all new Insight hybrid concept vehicle that just debuted at the Paris Motor Show. Today, even as hybrid fans are salivating over rumors about what Toyota's all-new 2010 Prius will be like, Honda is reaping the benefits of sharing... Full article...
