Lexus teases sporty new concept car

The luxury Lifestyle blog (the home of luxury Lifestyle) presents Lexus teases sporty new concept car.

 
Luxury auto brand Lexus has released the first teaser image of a new concept vehicle set to be unveiled at next month’s North American International Auto Show in Detroit.

The Toyota-owned brand said that the new concept model will showcase a new design direction for the brand, developed by its team in California.

Believed to be a sports model, it appears to signal something of a departure from the understated styling that Lexus has been known for in recent years, with sharp lines and an aggressive appearance.

That’s an aim also being embraced by Lexus’s parent company Toyota, which unveiled its new sports car in late November in a bid to shed its rather staid image.

The model will be officially revealed January 9, on the first press day of the show ahead of its public opening, which takes place January 11.

The luxury Lifestyle blog (the home of luxury Lifestyle) presents The Honda Micro-Commuter City Car is Future and Technology-Friendly.

 
The Honda Micro-Commuter concept car was the star of this year’s Tokyo Motor Show. The urban dweller vehicle runs on electricity and is designed with both technology and aesthetics in mind.

The 8’ by 4’1” concept car comfortably seats three and offers drivers a maximum speed of 60 km/h. The vehicle’s space-age design features an interactive and smartphone-compatible dashboard complete with joystick levers. The car’s many functions can be accessed and controlled with your smartphone. The car contains a rechargeable loop battery that efficiently powers its systems and functions.

The groundbreaking battery can be removed and reused to power personal electronics making it a highly intelligent design. While this car is based on a functional concept, its dynamic and sleek aesthetic make it distinctive and modern.

A blue and white interior is clean and simple with intricate and design-savvy detailing that make this vehicle appealing to a wide range of drivers.

Lotus opens first showroom in China

The luxury Lifestyle blog (the home of luxury Lifestyle) presents: Lotus opens first showroom in China.

 
British racing marque Lotus, which produces the iconic Lotus Elise sports car, has announced the opening of its first China showroom.

The company launched the new showroom earlier this month, featuring six models that have previously only been available in China through other dealers.

The Elise R, Elise SC, Evora, Evora IPS, Exige S 240 and the Exige S 260 wlll be on display at the store, which is in Beijing’s fashionable Chaoyang district.

The 600-meter-square space is the first in the world to feature Lotus’s refreshed store design, with the brand seemingly taking a leaf out of the books of companies such as Apple and Tesla to offer a modern, clean browsing experience.

A further ten stores are slated to open across China in 2012, a move that is likely to significantly boost sales from the 300 sold since the company started operating in China earlier this year.

Luxury-loving Chinese buyers have taken a keen interest in Lotus, with spy shots recently appearing of a Lotus SUV rumored to be heading for the Chinese market

The influential ChinaCarTimes blog predicted earlier this month that the model, based on the Lotus APX concept unveiled over five years ago in Europe, could make an appearance at next week’s Guangzhou Auto Show.

Mercedes to Launch Baby SLS AMG in 2014

The luxury Lifestyle blog (the home of luxury Lifestyle) presents Mercedes to Launch Baby SLS AMG in 2014.

 
Mercedes-AMG is planning a smaller and cheaper version of the SLS supercar, which will take on cars like the Porsche 911 and the Jaguar C-X16.

In an interview with Auto Express the development director of performance division AMG, Cristoph Jung, said there is room for an AMG model below the SLS.

Jung also said that the success of the SLS Gullwing – which has now sold 5,000 models since 2009 – had paved the way for a second AMG model.

“It is important to work on our brand and grow it. Look at the Porsche 911 – it is a huge success. They have done a very good job in evolving it over the years.

The car will come as a coupé, and a roadster is also under consideration. the new SLS will be a two-seater, powered by a V8 engine mounted in the front of the car.

This engine will most likely be the 5.5 liter twin-turbo which develops up to 500 horsepower. Expect 0-60mph in four seconds and a top speed of 185mph.

The baby SLS is expected to arrive in 2014, with a price tag of around 80,000 Euros.

The Maserati Kubang SUV concept, unveiled yesterday at the Frankfurt motor show, is the company’s answer to the success of the Porsche Cayenne.

The new Kubang was created by the Maserati Style Center headed by Lorenzo Ramaciotti and despite its Jeep platform, is supposed to be all Maserati.

Maserati has also promised that the production version will be powered by a new-generation high-tech Maserati proprietary engine designed in Modena by Paolo Martinelli and produced in Maranello by Ferrari.

 
Everything from the style, engine, suspension, brakes, handling, and performance is said to be in continuity with the brand’s core values of sportiness, style, elegance, luxury, performance and craftsmanship.

Mercedes-Benz F125 Hydrogen Concept

The luxury Lifestyle blog (the home of luxury Lifestyle) presents Mercedes-Benz F125 Hydrogen Concept.

 
The Mercedes-Benz F125, is the latest technology concept in a long line of research vehicles, from the Stuttgart-based automaker.

Powered by hydrogen and electricity, the F125 will initially evolve from it’s gullwing coupe effect, into a four door sedan, and it may very well be the future generation of the S class Mercedes-Benz.

This luxurious eco-friendly car of your dreams is perfected by an E4Matic all-wheel-drive-system, consisting of 4 motors mounted in each wheel.


With a total of 231 horsepower, it’s able to get from 0-62 mph in 4.9 seconds and from 80 to 120 km/h in 3.2 seconds. The top speed of the F125 is 220 km/h.

The electric motor is powered by hydrogen fuel cell, offering 621 miles on a full tank of hydrogen and aside from the fuel cell; the Mercedes F125  stores it’s energy in a Lithium-sulfur high-voltage battery.


The avant-guard interior design of the Mercedes F125, features some of the latest technological innovations, such as natural touch, gesture and voice control, and the “your command” cloud-based infotainment system.


The saloon architectural seat design is fashionable created for the style conscious individual and each automobile is tailored to the driver’s personal needs, without removing his hands from the steering wheel.

The lounge-like atmosphere is entwined with Wood, Alcantara and Silk. The command of the day and tomorrow are also proactive.


The Mercedes-Benz F125, in any case is a large vehicle. Measuring 4998mm in length, 1980mm in width, 1430mm in height and 3333mm wheelbase, now feast your eyes upon the slide-out trunk. This is the vision of the future mobility.

The overall picture is redefining automotive luxury and the Mercedes F125 is emission-free driving in First Class.

Jaguar C-X75 Inspirations & Icons by Dunhill

The luxury Lifestyle blog (the home of luxury Lifestyle) presents Jaguar C-X75 Inspirations & Icons by Dunhill.

 
To celebrate the birth of the new Jaguar C-X75 Alfred Dunhill have filmed a short movie that links its inception to the legendary 1960’s icon – the Jaguar XJ13.

Produced to celebrate 75 years of Jaguar, the C-X75, is an example of state of the art thinking and engineering.

It is propelled by a combination of four electric generators, two jet turbines and a diesel engine making it very fast and extremely efficient.


It is a thoroughly modern car but it takes its inspiration from a little known legend from the 1960’s – the Jaguar XJ13.

The XJ13 was produced to win Le Mans, a race that it would never take part in due to a change in the rules and it is this car, not the e-Type, which is held above all others by Jaguar. There was only one XJ13 ever made.


The C-X75 perfectly combines the future and the past. Its high speeds and low emissions put it in the vanguard of modern motoring while its aesthetic cues come from the golden age of British automotive design.

The world’s most expensive model car

The luxury Lifestyle blog (the home of luxury Lifestyle) presents The world’s most expensive model car.

 
Hailed the world’s most expensive and precious car model by Guinness World Records, this creation is based on the Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4.

The car was crafted by Robert GĂĽlpen — who has also created miniatures of the Mercedes Benz 500 SL and Aston Martin DB5 from precious metals and gems.

The Lamborghini is made from carbon fibre like the original and its shell was milled using computer modelling data handed over from the Italian car manufacturer.

But, adds GĂĽlpen, he wrapped a 1/1000mm thin thread of solid gold around the carbon fibres — a feature the original doesn’t boast.

The tyre rims have been cast from solid gold and platinum as has the entire interior, while diamonds have been inserted into the seat, headlights and steering wheel.

Sotheby’s will auction the car in December in either New York or Dubai with bids starting at $4.7 million,.

Fisker Surf Concept

The luxury Lifestyle blog (the home of luxury Lifestyle) presents Fisker Surf Concept.

 
Green car maker Fisker Automotive has confirmed that it is to launch a second model at the Frankfurt Motor Show.

Following in the footsteps of rival Tesla, which is working feverishly to ready its new Model S sedan for a launch next year, Fisker will expand its lineup beyond its $95,000 sports model with the launch of stablemate for the Fisker Karma.

The Fisker Surf concept was formally unveiled September 13 and is an extended-range electric vehicle, powered by batteries but capable of using a small gasoline generator to top up the charge when necessary.

Earlier this week, Fisker signed a deal with BMW to provide the powertrain for another model under development, a larger vehicle currently codenamed Project Nina.

The vehicle will be a mid-size premium sedan using a four-cylinder turbocharged engine supplied by BMW, and is set to be in showrooms around the world by 2013.

Infiniti Unveils Sebastian Vettel FX Special Edition

The luxury Lifestyle blog (the home of luxury Lifestyle) presents Infiniti Unveils Sebastian Vettel FX Special Edition.

 
Infiniti has released the first picture of a new concept vehicle designed in collaboration with Formula 1 driver Sebastien Vettel.

The brand remains tight-lipped about the rest of the model, which appears to be based on the Infiniti FX Crossover and will be fully unveiled by Vettel himself at the Frankfurt Motor Show this September.

The picture shows a more raked appearance for the five-door crossover, with a redesigned front grill and bumper and a prominent trailing roof spoiler.

It bears Vettel’s name on front fender badges and was described by the auto brand August 29 as his ‘perfect Infiniti’

In a video released by Infiniti last week, Vettel is seen discussing the design with Nissan’s design boss Shiro Nakamura.

Although a crossover model may not seem a natural choice for a Formula 1 driver to turn his hand to, Vettel is reported to own an Infiniti FX50 for use when he’s not in his Red Bull racecar — apparently because it has space for his mountain bike.
