Decadence, Aston Martin–Style: Official Photos of Production Lagonda Supersedan Released, Including Interior
Aston Martin has produced its first suite of images of its gorgeous Lagonda hyperluxury sedan in production form. This follows the release of photos of a prototype test vehicle in Oman a couple of weeks ago, which followed an embarrassing photo drop of the same car by Oman Air shortly after it arrived in the Middle Eastern country. Turns out the Lagonda is just as beautiful sitting in front of a glass wall (and next to its most recent predecessor) as it is bombing through the Omani desert.
Significantly, these photos finally show most of the Lagonda’s decadent interior, which appears to borrow heavily from the Rapide, for better or worse. Like the Rapide S, a large transmission tunnel separates the left- and right-side seats, which all have fixed headrests. The dashboard looks the same, dull steering wheel, flip-up navigation screen, and all. An elaborate diamond quilting pattern covers all four seats and we wouldn’t doubt it if the leather was coated with pure gold. It sure looks that way.
While Aston is still officially mum on the details of the car’s underpinnings and powertrain (both of which we expect to be closely related to the Rapide S), we were able to glean a few key details of the Lagonda from a spokesman, specifically that its crisply tailored body is made completely from carbon fiber, and that weight stays “neutral over the Rapide S.”

Oh yeah, and that it has seen speeds of more than 175 mph during testing. First deliveries to its lucky customers will start in the first quarter of 2015; unfortunately for us and most of the rest of the world, all of the planned 150-to-200-unit production run are bound for the Middle East. Lucky sheikhs.

2015 GMC Yukon XL Denali Long-Term Update: 16,000 Stress-Reducing Miles and Counting
WHAT WE LIKE: Big Den or The Bus, nicknames our long-term testers have bestowed on the Yukon XL Denali , is every family’s best friend for weekend journeys. Never having to pack tight, leave a kidlet behind, or hang bikes out the back are stress relievers. Not to mention that this cruiser is smoother than a sailplane on the open road. The 17-mpg overall fuel economy is impressive, especially considering the 1100-mile trip pulling a trailered 1979 Alfa Romeo that’s included in this average. Chalk up the commendable efficiency to the V-8 engine’s ability to run contentedly on four cylinders during light-load conditions. We topped 20 mpg on some long interstate stretches. Also, breezes through the ventilated front seat cushions were deeply appreciated during a 104-degree day in Texas. READ MORE ››

Honda unveils facelifted CR-V ahead of Paris debut
New diesel engine and styling tweaks for fourth-generation Honda SUV, which goes on sale in MarchThe Honda CR-V, revealed here in official photographs, has undergone a significant mid-life refresh, receiving cosmetic tweaks and a new diesel powertrain.
Four-wheel-drive variants of the fourth-generation CR-V – which has been on sale since 2012 – will now be offered with a higher-powered 1.6-litre i-DTEC four-cylinder diesel engine from Honda’s Earth Dreams Technology series. The new engine variant replaces the 2.2-litre i-DTEC diesel, which is being phased out.
The new diesel engine produces 158bhp and 258lb ft. CO2 emissions are claimed to be less than 130g/km of CO2, when the engine is coupled to a six-speed manual transmission, which represents an 11 per cent improvement compared to the outgoing unit.
This engine will also now be offered with a new nine-speed automatic transmission in place of the old five-speed self-shifting 'box. The CO2 emissions for this combination will be less than 135g/km, 20 per cent better than its predecessor.
The two-wheel-drive CR-V, available with a six-speed manual transmission, will continue to be offered with the lower-powered version of the 1.6 litre i-DTEC diesel engine. It's the frugal champion in the range, producing 118bhp and emitting 117g/km of CO2 in its most economical guise.
The existing 2.0-litre petrol engine will continue to be offered with either two- or four-wheel drive and either the manual or automatic five-speed transmission. Official economy and performance figures have yet to be confirmed, however.
The most significant cosmetic tweaks across the range are at the front of the car, which receives new headlamps, front grille, fog lights, skid-plate and bumper. The enhancements at the rear include new LED combination lamps, a refreshed tailgate design and bumper.
Honda says the version of the CR-V sold in the UK and Europe has been specifically developed and engineered to suit driving conditions here. The car will continue to be built at Honda’s plant in Swindon.
Customers will be able to order the facelifted model next March, and the car will be seen in the metal for the first time at the Paris motor show later this week.
Honda will also show its latest Type R concept at the Paris show, alongside its reborn HR-V crossover, the new Jazz and the updated Civic range.

0 to 150 to 0: The Hottest Tuner Cars Tested from Hennessey, Lingenfelter, RENNTech, and More! [C/D Archives]
“Last year, observed and times by the Motor Industry Research Association, Reg Parnell demonstrated the ability of the DB4GT to go from 0 to 100 mph and back to 0 again in 24 seconds.” —Car and Driver, June 1961
That sentence, which appeared 37 years ago in our report on the Aston Martin DB4GT, may not have been the first time that anyone ever quoted a 0-to-100-to-0 clocking, but it does establish the era in which this unique performance yardstick became popular. READ MORE ››

New estate-bodied Skoda Fabia Combi features a 530-litre boot
Third-generation Fabia Combi is longer, wider and lower than its predecessor and boasts new tech and more efficient enginesThe estate-bodied Skoda Fabia Combi has been revealed in official pictures ahead of its public debut at this week's Paris motor show.
Like the hatchback model, the new Fabia Combi adopts design elements first seen on the VisionC show car. The front end is identical to the production hatch.
The new model is 10mm longer, 90mm wider and 31mm lower than its predecessor, which gives it a 4257mm length, 1732mm width and 1467mm height. It has a 30mm wider track at both the front and the rear and a wheelbase that is 5mm longer.
The Fabia Combi has a 530-litre boot capacity, which is 25 litres up on its predecessor and a class leading figure according to Skoda. Folding the rear bench increases load space to 1395 litres, which is actually 90 litres less than the outgoing car.
The seat can be folded down in two positions, with the seat folding first and then the backrest.
Skoda claims items up to 1550mm in length can be accommodated in the car. The loading sill is 611mm off the ground to make loading easy, and the tailgate opens to 1900mm and is 1028mm wide.
The car's interior is wider by 21mm and longer 8mm and although the car is now slightly lower, there is more headroom for the driver and front passenger.
The Fabia Combi adopts elements of VW's modular MQB technology, such as the engines, electro-mechanical steering and electrical architecture.
The engines powering the new Fabia Combi are on average 17 per cent more efficient compared to the units in the second-generation model. These improvements are the result of a new generation of petrol and diesel engines, improved aerodynamics and all-round weight reduction. On average the car has lost 55kg across the range, the weight of the lightest variant – the 1.0-litre, three-cylinder petrol – is down to 1004kg.
Three petrol and three diesel engines will be offered, all equipped with stop-start and a brake energy recovery system. Power output in the petrol engines ranges from 74bhp to 108bhp. The new three-cylinder diesel range offers between 74bhp and 104bhp. Manual and automatic DSG transmissions will be offered.
The most frugal variant, the Fabia Combi Greenline, can return a claimed 91mpg on the combined cycle, and emits 82g/km of CO2.
Improved technology will also form a centerpiece of the new Skoda’s appeal to younger customers. The infotainment systems in the new Skoda Fabia Combi are all adopted from Volkswagen’s MIB (modular infotainment matrix) technology. Other highlights include keyless entry and start, front and rear parking sensors, a new-generation aircon system and the option of a panoramic glass roof.
It is the first car in Skoda’s range to feature Mirrorlink, a system that allows smartphone apps to be displayed on the infotainment screen. Another new function is Smartgate, where vehicle-specific information such as fuel consumption, average speed or g-force readings can to transferred and recorded on a smartphone.
Making its debut in the Fabia Combi is the new column-electric power steering, which replaces the previous electro-hydraulic power steering and saves weight and fuel.
The car also includes up to 17 of the ‘Simply Clever’ items found on other models in the range, including the ice scraper in the fuel filler cap, storage nets on the inside edges of the front seats, a smartphone cradle in the centre console and a rubbish bin in the side door.
The new Skoda Fabia Combi is set to arrive in European markets from January 2015. The estate-bodied car first went on sale in 2000 and to date Skoda has sold more than 1.1m examples. UK-specific pricing and spec details have not yet been released.

Hyundai launches new digital car showroom
Korean manufacturer partners with online dealer to create digital car buying service, which will launch in NovemberHyundai is launching a new digital car buying service, which will allow potential customers to research, specify and purchase a new car online.
The service, created in conjunction with dealer Rockar, will launch in November and aims to do away with traditional dealer interactions, such as speaking to salesmen.
The online service will be accompanied by a forecourt located at the Bluewater shopping complex in Kent. The complex has an annual footfall of 27 million people.
Customers will be able to test drive vehicles from the site, as well as returning to have their vehicles serviced.
Rokar says that savings it makes on the traditional car buying experience are passed on to customers - but Hyundai hasn't commented on whether that will affect the retail price of its vehicles.
Hyundai isn't the first manufacturer to experiment with digital showrooms. Audi launched its first unit, dubbed Audi City, in London in 2012, and the brand has since said it plans to roll out more sites in both the UK and abroad. Similarly, the limited First Edition version of Volvo's new XC90 was only available to customers ordering the model online.

2015 Honda CR-V First Drive: A New Engine, Grille, and Transmission
This year, more than 300,000 individuals will sign a sales contract and drive home in a Honda CR-V. These won’t be fleet buyers wearing shirts that say Hertz or Avis, but retail consumers presumably wearing more stylish garb. Or maybe not: What they’re all looking for, after all, is a small, no-hassle SUV that does the job as reliably as a polo shirt. READ MORE ››

Sedan kecil Toyota, Etios dan versi hatchbacknya Liva, tidak berhasil mendulang penjualan yang tinggi. Toyota pun menyiapkan sedan pada kelas lain untuk menarik minat masyarakat.

2015 Mercedes-Benz C300 4MATIC Tested: An Effective Weapon in the Entry-Luxury Wars
During the Mercedes-Benz family’s most recent growth spurt, the entry-luxe CLA and the top dog Mercedes-AMG GT S have grabbed inordinate attention. More significant is how the new C-class fares against rising hostility in the premium compact-sedan class. Traditionally, Audi has been the style and luxury leader and BMW has defined exemplary performance, while Cadillac’s ATS, Acura’s TLX, and the latest Lexus IS are fresh party crashers. But, as we’ve determined by driving and testing the new Benz Cs, the silver star aspires to topple that order. As the brand’s top seller, the C-class has a mission to stand tall against come what may from East, West, and the U.S. of A. READ MORE ››

Not Astron! Asterion! Photos Appear of Reported Lamborghini Mega-Hybrid Set for Paris Debut
In the early 1970s, Lamborghini was setting the world on its ear with the futuristic Countach and their Italianate take on the AMC Marlin, the mighty Espada. Mitsubishi, on the other hand, was working hard to integrate twin balance shafts into a modest overhead-cam four-banger.
The result of these endeavors? Old man Ferruccio bailed on the company he founded in 1974. The company, though it became an ’80s-bedroom-wall sensation, didn’t find true success until it fell into the hands of the Volkswagen Group in 1998. The Silent-Shaft-equipped Mitsubishi Starion, however, spearheaded Mitsu’s entry into the American market alongside the Tredia and Cordia. Truly a trident of power to rival Maserati’s.
The turbo specialty sports coupe also saw captive-import duty as Dodge/Chrysler/Plymouth Conquest. While it was sold in other markets with the vaunted 4G63 engine made famous by the DSM triplets and the Lancer Evolution, the American Starion always boasted the big 2.6L Silent Shaft motor, known far and wide as the Astron. Lately, Mitsubishi has not been doing so well. In its day, however, the Astron’s balance-shaft tech was licensed to numerous companies, including another concern now under the VW umbrella: Porsche.
The Lamborghini Asterion is sadly not the second coming of the Astron. Its hybrid powertrain is unlikely to be found in anything called a Sapporo. It will, however, be rather exclusive. It will almost certainly make obscene noises. And now reputed pictures of it have surfaced in what is alleged to be Italian enthusiast mag Quattroruote. Carscoops dug the images out of the forum netherworld.

The Asterion apparently features a V-10 sourced from the Huracán, as well as a triple-electric-motor setup. The four powerplants are supposedly good for a combined 888 horsepower. We’ll see the car in Paris this week. In the spirit of the Veneno, Sesto Elemento, and Aventador J, we expect it to cost all the money. We’re a bit bummed that this car wasn’t built in 1988, back when Sant’Agata was under Chrysler’s stewardship. Mopar’s lash-up with Mitsu would’ve made an Astron-powered Asterion a real possibility.
