We always wanted to have a car like Caterham, but the one and only thing that came to our minds by looking at it was that this car would have been better with roof, 400 horsepower and more luxury. So all the prayers have been answered and the IFR has come up with an all-new Aspid with roof in which two engines will be available and a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter producing 270 hp, or a 400-hp turbocharged version of the same mill. This light weight carbon fiber structure whose power will be sent to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual gearbox and a limited-slip differential to get that 400 horsepower.

The new Volkswagen GX3 reverse trike concept vehicle. This car is designed in California and this is something you will have a crush on. This vehicle achieves an awesome 10hp/lb power to weigh ratio by attaching a 125 hp. 113 ft-lbs and a 1.6 liter engine along with 1200 pound frame. This car is perfect for a couple. Don’t worry about the speed; it just takes 5.7 seconds to accelerate from 0-62 mph. It has a top speed of 125 mph.
The best thing about this car is that it promises 47mpg. This car can be owned after paying a price of 17000$ to Volkswagen. Looking at the design it looks similar to a sports car. The front wheel outside the solid steel body gives it a sporty look. A combination of white and black used in the car is an all time favorites. The rear turbo wheel is broader than the front wheels and provides just enough support to the car and helps it to maintain a perfect balance through out. A decent car embedded with all facilities will give a pretty good ride.

Good news ! Tesla Motor has announced that they are going to produce Tesla Roadster. It is also said that all 2008 models scheduled for production have already been ordered for just under $100,000 each. You can start your reservation for 2009 model. Tesla Roadster is the first production electric car to boast genuine sports performance coupled with 210+ mile range between battery charges. Tesla Motors CEO also announced that the company had obtained all regulatory approvals for the Tesla Roadster to be sold in the USA, as well as delivering the first of the production cars and commencing regular production of the 2008 Roadster in keeping with the projected timeline laid out last year.
The final delay for the Roadster’s production was in finding a durable 2-speed transmission that could handle the extreme performance of the high-powered electric motor over the lifespan of the vehicle – and while this struggle continues, the 2008 fleet will roll with an interim transmission and slightly reduced performance of 5.7-second acceleration times to 60mph instead of the 3.9 seconds originally promised. Tesla has promised to retrofit all 2008-model Roadsters with the new transmission when it’s available – at the company’s expense – and the full performance potential will be unlocked once these units are installed.
If you are interested with this car, better reserve your place. 900 Tesla roadsters have been sold or reserved already, sales are expected to increase with the release of Tesla’s next model.
