According to a recent report, Lexus is working on a seven-seat crossover.<br />
<br />
<img alt=" Lexus is developing a seven-seat crossover - report" height="411" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2012/3/2/big/2282723671922261857.jpg" width="640" /> <br />
<br />
Details are limited but <em>Automotive News</em> is reporting the
company could develop an all-new crossover or add a third row of seating
to the next-generation RX which is slated to arrive in late 2015.<br />
<br />
It remains unclear which direction the company is leaning but Lexus USA's Group Vice President an<span style="line-height: 1.5em;">d
General Manager said "We feel like we're missing a 35,000-units-a-year
opportunity. We're working hard to rectify that." Jeff Bracken went on
to say "We could bring it to market in 2016 or 2017."</span><br />
<br />
While nothing is official, speculation suggests the model could be
called the TX and it be based on either the front-wheel-drive platform
from the Toyota Camry or the rear-wheel drive platform from the Lexus IS / GS.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Subaru's Australian division has
announced the company isn't working on a BRZ STi or another
performance-oriented model in collaboration with Subaru Tecnica
International (STi).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" Subaru isnt currently planning a BRZ STi or other performance models" height="425" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2013/8/24/big/7185415421365923041.jpg" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sad news for those who were waiting for a turbocharged BRZ or at
least an STi-prepared version of the rear-wheel drive coupe as Subaru
isn't planning a hotter model. What's even worse is they aren't
currently developing other performance models, following the
introduction of the WRX STi. Speaking of the WRX STi, it seems the hatchback might not happen after all even though Subaru said they will consider it to meet U.S. demand.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Getting back to the inexistent BRZ STi, the reason why it won't
happen is due to limited resources which have to be targeted to
improving global sales, according to Subaru Australia managing director
Nick Senior. However, some distributors are still lobbying for hotter
versions but for the moment an STi model is not being prepared. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Acura and Honda have announced plans to
field a variety models in seven classes at the Pikes Peak International
Hill Climb which kicks off on June 29th.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" Acura & Honda to field six models at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb" height="426" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/4/24/big/1628125388189110097.jpg" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Honda declined to go into specifics but confirmed plans to enter a Fit EV
in the electric vehicle class and a Fit B-Spec racer in the Exhibition
class. The company will also enter an S3700 in the Time Attack class, a
first-generation Acura NSX in the Open class, a CBR600RR motorcycle in
the Middleweight class and a TRX450 in the 450 ATV class. Last but not
least, Romain Dumas will compete in the Unlimited class with a
Honda-powered Norma.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to Honda Performance Development President Art St. Cyr,
"Pikes Peak presents us with a unique opportunity to showcase Honda's
diverse product lineup and to energize Honda fans around the world, as
we work to further strengthen Honda's presence in racing at all levels."
St. Cyr went on to say "Our associates will be working hard between now
and race day to prepare this diverse field of race vehicles and
showcase the Honda Racing Spirit."</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sources within the Volkswagen Group have revealed the Lamborghini Urus will be manufactured at VW's factory in Slovakia.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" Lamborghini Urus to be assembled in Slovakia starting 2017 - report" height="425" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2012/4/25/big/15800162481525870383.jpg" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Slated to go on sale early 2018, the production version of the Lamborghini Urus concept
will be put together in Bratislava, Slovakia at a Volkswagen factory
where it will be assembled together with the Porsche Cayenne, Audi Q7,
Volkswagen Touareg as well as the bodies for the forthcoming Bentley SUV due in 2016.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It will be Lamborghini's first SUV after the LM002 which was phased
out in 1993 and will share its platform with the next-gen Q7, Touareg,
Cayenne and Bentley SUV. Little else is known about the Urus but it
could be offered with a hybridized V8 generating approximately 680 PS
(500 kW). Audi's boss Rupert Stadler previously said it "won't be a
softie" and that it will carry over most of the concept's design.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Named after the Aurochs bull - a large, wild ancestor of domestic cattle
- the Urus is the spiritual successor of the LM002. It features
aggressive styling with a prominent front fascia, a ventilated hood and
LED headlights. There's also a tailgate-mounted spoiler, a rear
diffuser and a four-tailpipe exhaust system. Other highlights include
an adjustable suspension and 24-inch wheels with a matte aluminum finish </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Toyota has released a couple of images with the facelifted Yaris set to go on sale in the following months, following some brochure scans which surfaced the web in March..</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" Toyota reveals significant facelift for Yaris" height="480" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/4/22/big/749576044915271800.jpg" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Essentially a rebadged Vitz,
the European-spec Yaris will be built in France and launched this
summer. Additional information is limited, but the car will feature a
6.1-inch touchscreen display and three different engines: a 1.0-liter
VVT-i, a 1.33-liter dual VVT-i and a 1.4-liter D-4D diesel. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Yaris has received a major styling change as the front fascia is now derived from the all-new Aygo
with the large trapezoidal lower grille combined with the upper one to
create an "X" shape. While on the smaller Aygo the LED daytime running
lights sit next to the fog lights, on the facelifted Yaris these have
been integrated within the darkened headlights.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Photos of the Yaris' rear have not been provided but most likely the
changes will carry over from the JDM-spec Vitz with the updated
taillights, altered license plate area and a mildly tweaked bumper. They
also prepared new alloy wheel designs along with a revised interior
cabin packing the latest version of the Toyota Link infotainment system.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The changes are skin deep as the face-lifted Yaris
now benefits from a modified suspension to provide better handling and
comfort while the noise levels have be reduced. Engine lineup will be
taken from the pre-facelift variant, including the hybrid powertrain.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A full reveal should occur in the following days.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Lexus has officially unveiled the entry-level NX crossover at the Beijing Motor Show.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt="2015 Lexus NX [11th Apr, 2014]" height="424" name="image" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/4/11/medium/6191656281820108742.jpg" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Previewed by the LF-NX concepts,
the production model has an aggressive exterior that will provoke love
or hate it reactions. Regardless of which side you're on, the model has a
prominent spindle grille which is flanked by LED headlamps and LED
daytime running lights. The model also has plastic body cladding and 17-
or <span style="line-height: 1.5em;">18-inch alloy wheels.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The NX 200t can also be equipped with an F SPORT package that adds a
new front bumper, a mesh grille, black mirrors and unique alloy wheels.
The package also includes sport seats, revised instrumentation and
paddle shifters.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Speaking of the interior, it features a three-spoke steering wheel,
metallic trim and an angular center stack. Detailed specifications were<span style="line-height: 1.5em;">
not released but the model can be equipped with leather upholstery,
wood trim and an optional Wireless Charging Tray which can recharge Qi
compatible smartphones.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the United States, two engines will be available. The NX 200t has a
turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder that produces 235 bhp (175 kW) and
258 lb-ft (349 Nm) of torque. Likewise, the NX 300h has a 2.5-liter
Atkinson-cycle engine and an electric motor that produce a combined
maximum output of 194 bhp (145 kW). Front-wheel drive will be standard
but all-wheel drive wheel be optional.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The 2015 Lexus NX will go on sale in the United States this fall and pricing will be announced closer to launch.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Nissan North America Chairman Jose Munoz has revealed some new details about the 2015 Maxima.<br />
<br />
<br />
<img alt="Nissan Sport Sedan concept [13th Jan, 2014] [13th Jan, 2014]" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/1/13/medium/51258186864300540.jpg" height="454" name="image" width="640" /><br />
<br />
<br />
Speaking at the sidelines of the New York Auto Show, Munoz said the Maxima will look virtually identical to the Sport Sedan concept which debuted at the North American International Auto Show earlier this year. As he explained to <i>Automotive News</i>, “The difference betwee<span style="line-height: 1.5em;">n
the concept car and the production car will be very small." Munoz
declined to elaborate but said the model will go on sale this fall.</span><br />
<br />
Designed to preview an upcoming production model, the Sport Sedan
concept has a "V-Motion" front fascia with a chrome grille that is
flanked by boomerang-shaped LED headlights. The concept also has a Strad
Amber exterior with a "floating" roof and 21-inch aluminum wheels.<br />
<br />
<br />
The two-tone interior is undeniably elegant as it features quilted
leather seats, a sport steering wheel and metallic trim. We can also
see a floating center stack and a futuristic infotainment system.<br />
<br />
<span style="line-height: 1.5em;"></span>Little else is known about the Maxima but it will likely feature a
"V-Motion" front fascia with a prominent grille and boomerang-shaped
shapes headlights. The model could also be equipped with a 3.5-liter V6
engine that produces at least 260 bhp (194 kW).<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Volkswagen is offering a sneak preview of a US-spec Golf estate with a near-production Sportwagon concept currently showcased at New York Auto Show.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" Volkswagen Golf Sportswagon concept shows its practical side in New York" height="426" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/4/18/big/11990210321993256763.jpg" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We don't understand why Volkswagen is calling this Golf Sport-wagon a
concept since it looks like what you would expect from a production
model. Designed for those who want a "sportier alternative to compact SUV s", the Golf wagon will be offered with 18-inch wheels, automatic
climate control, panoramic sunroof and bi-xenon headlights.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Customers will have the possibility of selecting from either a
4-cylinder, 1.8-liter turbocharged gasoline engine with 170 bhp (126 kW)
or a more frugal 2.0-liter TDI rated at 150 bhp (111 kW). Opt for the
gasoline engine and you will have to choose between a 5-speed manual or
6-speed automatic transmission whereas the TDI engine can be coupled to a
standard 6-speed manual or an optional DSG.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Although the New York show-car features a 4Motion system, Volkswagen
says the AWD arrangement is currently "under consideration" for the
production model.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Volkswagen Golf Sport-wagon is slated to go on sale early next year.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
A couple of fully revealing photos with the Peugeot 408 Sedan have
emerged, prior to the vehicle's debut on Sunday at Beijing Motor Show.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" Peugeot 408 Sedan fully uncovered in latest photos" height="456" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/4/17/big/102529151279148885.jpg" title="Al Ain Japan" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Attached images show the China-spec 408 Sedan but most likely the
European version will look virtually the same although it's not known
whether it will receive the 408 or 308 Sedan moniker, probably the
latter. The obvious changes compared to the hatchback are at the back
where the sedan sports a longer overhang together with wider horizontal
taillights sending out a bit of a pre-facelift E-Class vibe.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It will ride on the same EMP2 platform as the hatchback and wagon
308s and in China it will be manufactured by the Dongfeng-PSA joint
venture. The China-spec variant will be powered by a 1.6-liter
naturally-aspirated engine with 117 bhp (82 kW), a larger 1.8-liter with
140 bhp (104 kW), as well as a beefier 1.6-liter turbo rated at 163 bhp
(121 kW).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The European version
will make use of the same Euro 6-compliant engines as its two cousins
and most likely Peugeot will offer the recently introduced economical
three-cylinder 1.2-liter PureTech e-THP turbocharged gasoline engine
that churns 130 PS (96 kW).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The China-spec model will be unveiled on Sunday at the Beijing Motor
Show while its European sibling will likely be shown early October at
the Paris Motor Show.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Infiniti has introduced this week at New York Auto Show the facelifted 2015 QX80 together with a new range-topping Limited trim level.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" Infiniti announces 2015 QX80, adds high-end Limited trim" height="368" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/4/16/big/550977262336631443.jpg" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Joining the refreshed Q70/Q70L
on Infiniti's stand in NY is the updated QX80 full-size SUV featuring
tweaked full LED headlights and taillights, a revised front grille, two
new alloy wheel choices and three fresh paints. On the inside there are
two new finisher colors along with two color schemes while the Tuscan
Burl trim was replaced with darker Mocha Burl.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The biggest change is the addition of a high-end Limited trim which
comes with three unique exterior paint schemes, bespoke 22-inch dark
alloys, smoked headlights & taillights and a special Truffle Brown
interior finish combining brown, black and silver leather with wood
appointments and trim. Other updates include dark-finished upper and
lower grille surround, side vents, roof rails, fog light surround, side
mirror caps, door handles and crossbars.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Slated to arrive in dealerships this fall, both the 2015 Infiniti
QX80 and QX80 Limited will be powered by a V8 5.6-liter delivering 400
bhp (298 kW) and 413 lb-ft (559 Nm) delivered to either the rear wheels
or both axles through a seven-speed automatic transmission.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The New York Auto Show has revealed Infiniti will showcase the facelifted Q70 and QX80 on April 17th.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" Infiniti Q70 & QX80 facelifts to debut in New York" height="416" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2012/4/24/big/1755330113446118746.jpg" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The show declined to go into specifics but said the 2015 Q70 will
have a "fresh look" with changes to the front and rear ends. There will
also be a new long-wheelbase model, named the Q70 L, which will provide
more than five inches of additional legroom.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Engine options will apparently carryover as they are slated to
include a 3.7-liter V6 with 330 bhp (246 kW) and a 5.6-liter V8 with 420
bhp (313 kW).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Likewise, the 2015 QX80 have revised styling inside and out. There
will also be a new range-topping Limited model that features "special
leather soft-touch and seating surfaces, unique new open-pore wood trim
throughout, as well as dark-accent trim on the exterior."</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="articlecontent" style="text-align: justify;">
Nissan has unveiled the 2015 Murano, ahead of its debut at the New York Auto Show.<br />
<br />
Previewed by the Resonance concept,
the Murano has a bold exterior with a V-Motion front fascia,
boomerang-shaped headlights and a "floating" roof. Unfortunately, the
rear end is a bit haphazard as the LED taillights clash with the massive
amount of black plastic which attempts to hide the D-pillar.
Regardless, the model can be equipped with a panoramic moonroof, LED
headlights and 20-inch aluminum wheels.<br />
<br />
While the exterior styling won't win everyone over, the cabin boasts
premium materials and a modern design. Notable highlights include "Zero
Gravity" seats, wraparound wood trim and metallic accents. There's also a
push button ignition, a dual-zone automatic climate control system and a
7-inch high-resolution display in the instrument cluster. Options
include premium leather upholstery, heated / cooled front seats and a
Bose audio system.<br />
<br />
Power is provided by a 3.5-liter V6 engine that develops 260 bhp (194
kW) and 240 lb-ft (325 Nm) of torque. It is connected to an Xtronic
transmission which can be paired to an optional all-wheel drive system.<br />
The Murano will go on sale later this year and pricing will be <span style="line-height: 1.5em;">announced closer to launch.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Toyota has unveiled a new range of
fuel-efficient engines that promise to achieve fuel efficiency
improvements of at least 10 percent over current vehicles.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" Toyota introduces a new range of fuel-efficient engines" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/4/10/big/984805107890296447.jpg" width="580" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One of the engines is a newly-developed 1.3-liter petrol that runs on
the Atkinson cycle which is typically associated with hybrid engines.
As Toyota explains, "Use of the Atkinson cycle provides an increased
expansion ratio and reduces waste heat through a high compression ratio
(13.5), resulting in superior thermal efficiency." The engine has also
been equipped with a distinctive intake port that creates a strong
tumble flow - a vertical swirl of the air-fuel mixture - inside the
cylinder. This and other innovations should enable the engine to be
about 15 percent more fuel efficient than current models.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The company also unveiled a 1.0-liter engine that was
jointly-developed with Daihatsu. It eschews the Atkinson cycle but has a
similar tumble flow-generating intake port, a cooled EGR system and a
high compression ratio. When combined with a start/stop system and
"various other fuel consumption reduction technologies," the engine can
be up to 30 percent more fuel-efficient than current models.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The engines will be used in several upcoming models and Toyota says
we can expect a total of 14 new engine variations to be introduced by
2015.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Lamborghini has revealed a one-off
Aventador Jackie Chan Edition which will be displayed later this month
at Beijing Motor Show in China.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" Lamborghini Aventador Jackie Chan Edition goes official" height="426" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/4/9/big/20064424831569828206.jpg" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The special Aventador is part of Lamborghini’s Ad Personam program
and has received a unique titanium gray exterior paint scheme along
with shiny Nero Ade alloy wheels. The interior adopts a red and black
theme along with the word "Long" embroidered in the headrests and doors
as a reference to the actor's Chinese name - Cheng Long.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The car will go up for auction and all the money gathered will be
directed towards the China Film Institute "Jackie Chan Charity Fund"
which supports the development of China's film industry. The unique
supercar will probably be sold for a lot more than 7.38M yuan (about
1.2M USD) which is the Aventador's starting price in China.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Following the introduction of the facelifted Focus hatchback and wagon
in Geneva last month, Ford has revealed the refreshed Focus sedan which
will be shown in public at next week's New York Auto Show.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As expected, Ford has applied the Aston Martin-inspired grille on the
Focus sedan along with the restyled headlights seen on its two
siblings. The front bumper has also gone through surgery and looks more
refined than on the pre-facelift model while at the back there are
updated taillights, a slightly modified trunk lid and bumper but the
overall appearance is not that different compared to the outgoing model.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" 2015 Ford Focus Sedan officially revealed" height="426" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/4/9/big/18979993811541447371.jpg" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ford has worked on the interior cabin where there's a standard
rearview camera working together with either a 4.2- or 8-inch
touchscreen display on the models equipped with MyFord Touch. Moreover,
there are new driver assistance systems, an updated Sync system,
modified seats and a tweaked center console as well as updated cup
holders.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The changes are skin deep as the 2015 Focus Sedan facelift has
received suspension and chassis upgrades to offer "a more connected feel
to the road" and an "improved interior quietness." Ford is offering an
SE Sport Package encompassing a firmer touring suspension, subtle body
kit, 17-inch rims and paddle shifters for the automatic model.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In terms of engine lineup, the revitalized Focus Sedan will be
available with the well-known three-cylinder 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine
coupled only to a six-speed manual transmission.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The 2015 Ford Focus Sedan facelift will be showcased next week at the
New York Auto Show together with the updated Focus Electric, while the
Focus ST is going to be introduced later this year.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
A new report indicates Honda will use the "HR-V" moniker in United States for its Fit-based crossover.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Honda's Urban SUV concept eventually became the Vezel crossover for Japan and now it seems the model is heading to the United States
but with the HR-V name. The vehicle was reportedly shown to North
American dealers at a recent meeting and Honda also filed an application
for the "HR-V" name with the U.S. Patent and Trademark offices.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" Honda Vezel to receive HR-V nameplate in United States - report Al Ain Japan" height="426" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2013/11/20/big/4518904701860345453.jpg" title="Honda car Dealer - Al AIn Japan" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Production of the Honda HR-V will take place at the company's Celaya assembly plant in Mexico where they also produce the 2015 Fit
upon which the HR-V is based on. The model will go on sale in the
second half of the year while in 2015 it will be introduced in Europe
possibly with the same HR-V designation. The JDM-spec Vezel has been on
sale since November last year.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The previous Honda HR-V (Hi-rider Revolutionary Vehicle) was produced
between 1999 and 2006 and was available as a three- and five-door model
with a 4-cylinder 1.6-liter gasoline engine delivering 105 PS (77 kW)
and 125 PS (92 kW) in the VTEC version.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Japanese media is reporting Mitsubishi will kill the Lancer Evolution X towards the end of the year.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If we were to believe Japanese newspaper <em>Nikkan Jidosha Shimbun </em>(<em>Automotive News Daily</em>), production of the Lancer Evolution X will be terminated by the end of
2014. This decision has apparently been taken due to a decreasing demand
for the hot sedan and it seems Mitsubishi isn't planning an Evolution
XI at all so the model will likely be canned for good.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt="Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X" height="338" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/3/26/big/10558912211818661199.jpg" title="Al Ain Japan" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On sale since 1992 when the original model came out, Mitsubishi
managed to deliver 92,000 units in Japan and another 154,000 units
worldwide. The most recent iteration of the Evo X is a UK-only special
edition called "X FQ-440 MR" which packs a respectable 440 bhp (328 kW) punch from the familiar 4-cylinder 2.0-liter turbocharged engine.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Although this latest report indicates a direct replacement is not
planned, we should remind you that back in November last year there was a
rumor about a hybrid Lancer Evolution but such a model is still a few years off.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mazda has made a surprising announcement on April Fools' Day by introducing a four-seater version of the outgoing MX-5.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" Mazda MX-5 four-seater officially revealed - Al Ain Japan" height="305" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/4/1/big/208486079278183851.jpg" title="Mazda Car Dealer in Japan - Al Ain Japan" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
While everyone is waiting for the all-new MX-5 to come out, Mazda
decided to breathe life into the outgoing Miata by stretching its
wheelbase in order to make room for two rear doors. Although you now can
take the whole family for a ride, the downside is due to the added
weight the car has probably lost some of its great handling abilities
for which it has become so popular during its 25 years of existence.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Word on the street is that Mazda will introduce the next generation MX-5 in a couple of weeks at the New York Auto Show, possibly on April 16 during the first press day</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The 2015 Porsche Macan GTS has been spied completely undisguised.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" 2015 Porsche Macan GTS - Al Ain Japan" height="426" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/4/1/big/117264669474873539.jpg" title="Al AIn Japan" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Designed to slot between the Macan S and Macan Turbo, the GTS is
heavily influenced by the latter model as it features LED daytime
running lights, high-performance brakes and a four tailpipe exhaust
system.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There's no word on what will power the crossover but the Macan S has a
twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 with 340 HP (250 kW) while the Macan Turbo has a
twin-turbo 3.6-liter V6 with 400 HP (294 kW). This likely means the GTS
will have an output of approximately 360-370 HP (265-272 kW). If these
numbers pan out, the model will likely accelerate from 0-100 km/h in
roughly five seconds</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The crossover is 4699mm long, 1923mm wide and 1624mm tall which makes
it 146mm shorter, 16mm narrower and 82mm lower than its bigger brother.
Compared to the Q5 on which is based upon, the Macan is 70mm longer,
24mm wider and 30mm lower.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It adopts a double wishbone front suspension and a multi-link rear
arrangement with variable damping control and an electro-mechanical
steering system, while optionally available is an air suspension.
Compared to the Audi Q5, the Macan's track widths are 35mm bigger at the
front and 36mm at the back, while the suspension components are unique
to this model. In addition, the software and geometry have been updated
to make sure the Macan is "the most agile handling in its class."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Later on during the car's lifespan there will be a new base model
equipped with a 4-cylinder 2.0-liter turbo engine providing 280 HP,
along with a Macan Diesel with a 2.0-liter turbo. The duo will represent
the first 4-cylinder-powered Porsche models since the demise of the 968
in 1995.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Macan S and S Diesel ride on 18-inch alloys wrapped around in
235/60 R18 front and 255/55 R18 rear tires, while the Macan Turbo gets
larger 19-inch rims with 235/55 R19 and 255/50 R19 rubbers. Clients can
optionally configure their car with various wheel designs in sizes of up
to 21 inches.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Available at German dealers next April, the Macan S and Macan S
Diesel have a starting price of 57,930 EUR and are followed by the Macan
Turbo from 79,826 EUR (VAT included). UK will get the new Macan also in
April at these prices: Diesel S (43,300 GBP), S (43,300 GBP) and Turbo
(59,300 GBP).</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Several patent sketches depicting the
Suzuki Authentics production version have hit the web, prior to an
official launch slated for later this year.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" Suzuki Authentics production version leaked through patent sketches" height="516" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/3/29/big/14445287381642533541.jpg" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
At last year's Auto Shanghai we saw Suzuki's rather attractive Authentics concept
and now they are getting ready to introduce its production sibling.
Seen here are several patent sketches of the model which as you would
expect will look slightly toned down and less attractive than the
concept. The C-segment model will likely be unveiled next month at 2014
Auto China in Beijing before going on sale in the second half of the
year.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Production will be done by the firm's Chinese joint venture Chongqing
Changan Suzuki Automobile Co., LTD and in some markets it will replace
the smaller SX4 Sedan, including India where the model will be
commercialized as a Maruti Ciaz. Engine lineup will likely encompass a
4-cylinder, 1.6-liter gasoline engine connected to a standard 5-speed
manual transmission or an optional CVT.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Auto China 2014 will be organized between 20-24 April at the China International Exhibition Center.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Honda has announced plans to begin testing their Driving Support System in Utsunomiya City, Japan.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Designed to reduce accidents and improve fuel efficiency, the Driving
Support System uses traffic signal information to provide notifications
to the driver.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" Honda Driving Support System announced, will help drivers get green lights" height="392" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/3/28/big/2047596920736645308.jpg" title="Al Ain Japan" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When approaching an intersection, the system will display the
recommended speed the driver needs to travel to get a green light. If
the driver can't get a green light, the display will notify them to let
off the accelerator. Once the car has stopped at a red light, the
display will count down the time remaining until the light turns green.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Honda will begin testing the system in April and the company hopes to
determine how well the system improves fuel economy and reduces CO2
emissions. Researchers will also study the effects of the system on
traffic flow and traffic safety.</div>

Toyota has reportedly confirmed plans to introduce the 2015 Camry at the New York Auto Show.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Details are limited but the facelifted model promises to "challenge
conventional expectations of a mid-cycle model change." That's not much
to go on but the President of Toyota's Calty Design Research has previously said the car will have a “more emotional, more impactful design."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Little else is known about the model but it will likely feature carryover engines including:</div>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">A 2.5-liter four-cylinder with 178 bhp (133 kW) and 170 lb-ft (230 Nm) of torque</span></li>

TOYOTA - COROLLA FIELDER<br />
<br />
Toyota has launched the Corolla Axio and Corolla Fielder hybrids in Japan.<br />
<br />
On the styling front, the eco-friendly models are distinguished by a
new grille, "Synergy Blue" emblems and an available Light Blue Metallic
paint job.<br />
<br />
Interior changes are more extensive and include special seat
upholstery, a faux leather dashboard and a blue-accented leather shift
knob. There's also a 4.2-inch multi-information display and a "nanoe"
ionizer that removes pollen by releasing "particle ions embedded in
minute water droplets."<br />

develops 74 HP (54 kW) and 111 Nm (81 lb-ft) of torque. It is backed up
by an electric motor that has a maximum output of 61 HP (45 kW) and 169
Nm (124 lb-ft) of torque. This enables the model to have a combined
output of 100 HP (73 kW) and a fuel economy rating of 3.0 L/100km (77.6
mpg US / 93.2 mpg UK) in the JC08 test cycle.<br />
<br />
To compensate for the weight of the hybrid's battery system,
engineers retuned the suspension and shock absorbers to deliver
"outstanding levels of ride comfort and handling stability." The cars
have also been equipped with a noise-reducing windshield and additional
sound deadening material.<br />
<br />
Pricing starts at ¥1,925,000 and Toyota expects to sell 1,000 Axio hybrids and 1,500 Fielder hybrids in Japan each month.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ford is gearing up for the launch of the 2015 Mustang by releasing new details about the car's aerodynamic styling.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" 2015 Ford Mustang Convertible revealed" height="426" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2013/12/5/big/426860912227851429.jpg" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Faced with the challenge of creating an aerodynamic car that embraces
the Mustang's history, designers settled on a "sleek, modern and
muscular interpretation of the iconic pony car."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In order to reduce drag, the 2015 Mustang is Ford's first model to feature "wheel aero curtain<span style="line-height: 1.5em;">s"
that channel air from the front of the car to openings in the wheel
wells. The air is then directed across the outer surface of the wheels
and tires.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Looking bold and aggressive, the model has an evolutionary design
with a "shark-bite" front fascia and a trapezoidal grille that is
flanked by slender headlights. The pony car also has a steeply raked
windscreen which blends into a classic fastback roof. Other highlights
include a sculpted hood, wider rear fenders and three-dimensional
tri-bar taillights with sequential turn signals.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If the coupe isn't too your liking, the convertible has a multilayer
insulated cloth top that promises to keep the cabin quiet. The top also
lowers twice as fast as its predecessor and has a sleeker profile when
lowered.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The aviation-inspired cockpit has a familiar design but adopts higher
quality materials and improved switchgear. The cabin has also been
given a technological makeover as it can be equipped with Intelligent
Access, SYNC, MyFord Touch, Track Apps, MyColor gauges and a new Shaker
Pro audio system.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Under the hood, three different engines are available including:</div>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">A 3.7-liter V6 with at least 300 bhp (223 kW) and 270 lb-ft (365 Nm) of torque</span></li>
<li><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">A 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder with more than 305 bhp (227 kW) and 300 lb-ft (406 Nm) of torque</span></li>
<li><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">A 5.0-liter V8 with more than 420 bhp (313 kW) and 390 lb-ft (528 Nm) of torque</span></li>
</ul>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The 2015 Kia Sedona / Carnival has been spied ahead of a possible debut at the New York Auto Show.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" 2015 Kia Sedona spied, could be introduced next month" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2014/3/25/big/20968142952025348810.jpg" height="426" title="AlAin Japan" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
While this particular prototype is heavily camouflaged, previous spy photos
have shown the redesigned minivan will have a stylish front fascia with
a prominent grille that is flanked by sweptback headlights. The photos
also showed the model will have a distinctive greenhouse which is
slimmer at the rear than at the front.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Our spies couldn't get close enough to snap interior photos but the
2015 Sedona is expected to have a more accommodating cabin with
additional passenger and luggage space. We can also expect a modern
cabin with high-tech options including an infotainment system, a blind
spot monitoring system and a lane departure warning system.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt=" 2015 Kia Sedona (Grand Carnival) spied testing in southern Europe" src="http://content.worldcarfans.co/2013/8/14/big/437933310596528570.jpg" height="426" title="Al Ain Japan" width="640" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
Despite the modest updates, the entry-level LX comes nicely equipped
with air conditioning, Bluetooth connectivity and steering wheel-mounted
controls. Moving up to the EX variant adds leather upholstery, heated
front seats and automatic climate control.<br />
<br />
Motivation is provided by a 3.5-liter V6 engine that produces 269 bhp
(200 kW) and 246 lb-ft (333 Nm) of torque. It is connected to a
six-speed automatic transmission that enables the model to return 17
city / 24 mpg highway (US).<br />
<br />
The 2014 Sedona will go on sale later this year and pricing starts at $25,900 which excludes an $850 destination charge.<br />
