The engineers at Toyota FT-Bh set with the radical new ways. Not only the design offers a new character traits, but is remarkable, especially the low consumption. In the lightweight trend is also Toyota is not out of line and so it brings the hybrids to less than 800 kilograms. The CO2 emissions will amount to only 49 g / km and not more than 2.1 liters will be cut in the coming hundred kilometers. So here is clearly very important efficiency. Still, there is the Toyota FT-Bh to a study, but they could be sold in 2015 in series.
Lightweight and aerodynamic lines are crucial for a low fuel consumption, which was developed by the Toyota designers clearly put a top priority. At the front end shows itself, rather deep-seated and large grille. The lights go on in the Kotfügel and by and large, the design looks very strange, a little, as yet undiscovered deep sea fish remembering. The transition to the rear is smooth. Is rolled to 145/55 R18 tires, and (of course) light alloy wheels. They are characterized by low rolling resistance and thus allow a reduction in driving resistance. The grip will still be given.
With striking air inlets at the front and a corresponding aerodynamic styling has been very consistently taken into account. Toyota drives the fun even if that one does without side mirrors, which, of course, no matter how small, as sailing ears tackle a favorable air current. Here were quickly installed cameras. And even on the door handles are omitted and instead a solution by which the doors are unlocked electrically.
Interesting study on the development we must be very excited!

Jaguars will try to offer a roadster, and thus a fourth model. It is assumed that the F-Type will be sent in the middle of next year on the roads. In appearance, the study should serve as a model C-X16, which one might last autumn at the IAA in Frankfurt marvel.
In the Jaguar F-Type, new gasoline engines will be installed which are supported by an aluminum monocoque chassis. On public roads is reportedly already testing the first prototypes of the technology. From the Jaguar's Castle Bromwich plant to send out the first pre-production and the production of the F-Type will go here next year vonstatten.
Later this year, Jaguar will announce more details on the technology and equipment of the new model.

According to reports, it is due in November, a small series of R8 e-tron type of Audi. It is not clear yet whether the electric car can only be leased or offered for sale. New details on the electric R8 first shadow cast on a really interesting vehicle ...
Audi built in such way, according to the new e-tron fiberglass coil springs for the first time in the R8. Next year they will also come in different models of the Middle and Upper Class. This is already getesten diligently. The difference from normal steel springs shown in the fiberglass springs with a lower weight. Because instead of just 2.66 kilos 1.53 kilos this one, saving about 40 percent. The positive attributes, however will still remain, says Audi developer Joachim Schmitt.
The lithium-ion batteries weigh a whopping 550 kilos. The fact remains that the electronically powered Audi R8 e-tron as a whole only on an empty weight of 1,695 kilograms,. Lightweight design is very trendy, even at Audi. Two electric motors drive the R8 e-tron, and bring him in 4.8 seconds from 0 - 100 km / h In favor of a longer range is 200 km / h Closing.
