Renault has always been slightly weird, in a good way. They've ventured into niches no one has ever thought of, made cars that seemed crazy, and has a typical heart over head attitude towards making cars. Their hot hatchbacks have redefined the very meaning of the hot hatchbacks, and their Formula 1 campaign has been very successful. In short, they're having a good time now. So they've lent a few engineers some money and given them free reign.

After 10 months, this is what they came up with. The Renault Twizy F1. Renault Twizy is a brilliant little electric powered city car that shows a new direction is electric mobility. It's a smartly designed car strictly for in-city usage. It is of course, slow and won't break any records.

This is Honda's Civic Estate Concept. Now this is not car that anyone will pin posters of on their bedroom walls. But for those who actually have to spend real money and buy cars, this is very desirable.


For an estate car, this looks fantastic, and this isn't some fancy concept that will never make production. This is the production version, with a few extra bits and bobs added on. The basic shape, and design will carry over to the production model. Although the fancy LED lighting will not. The new Civic looks dumpy and disproportioned, but the estate version sets things right. It looks much more complete, and the Honda promises that it will have a good amount of space in the back as well. If that exhaust and the LED lighting makes it to the production version, people will pay extra for it. Guaranteed. Honda, make it happen.

Lamborghini is back in business, making cars that are too busy tripping on acid and rolling in heroin to give a damn about performance figures. It doesn't really matter if the big wing, or the rudely large diffuser even work. This is what Lamborghini should be making everyday.

This is the Lamborghini Veneno, unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show 2013. Performance stats don't matter. Just look it at. Keep looking at it. Now print it, and stick all over your room.

This is what happened during its conception,

"It's our 50th anniversary, what should we do?"
"Bake a cake?"
"WHAT? No way. Too mainstream"
"Or lets make a car"
"YEAH! But we we should get really high while doing that. I got some acid tabs!"
"LETS GET THIS PARTY STARTED! FORZA!!"

And this is what happened.

Unbelievably brash

True to the maxim: "Bigger the wing, better the car"

Pirelli SuperSofts? Is Pirelli bringing their F1 colour codes to road tyres as well?
