Zero-Emissions "Human-Electric" Hybrid

The twike looks like a pretty out-there car (enclosed, side-by-side seating) but it registers as a motorcycle. The custom-made Twike runs off a 5kW electric motor and NiMH batteries, and uses regenerative braking to feed itself through deceleration. It weighs less than 600 pounds and has a range of around 80 miles per charge, with the ability to peg 53 mph. It costs around $26,000 to $35,000 based on the interior styles.

$2 million car

It’s coming in late 2008, this vehicle with a price tag of $2 million. It's the Natalia SLS 2, brought to you by the same person who produced the Clenet in the '70s and '80s: Alfred DiMora. The Natalia features a DiMora Motorcar V16 Volcano engine — loosely translated to mean 1,200 hp. The car itself will have 60 onboard computer systems for everything from performance and communications to safety and comfort. A futuristic chassis and body-utilizing aerospace materials will enable it to weigh about 1,500 pounds less than other luxury cars in its class. And then there's the paint. An optional paint job allows the car's hue to change from black or blue when it's colder or to white when it's hot.

hydra spyder

The Hydra Spyder is stuffed with a Corvette engine and a Berkeley marine jet, and features a computerized air ride, retractable four-point front and rear suspension. The lower hull is aluminum while the upper structure is constructed from fiberglass. It's considered an SUV since it's longer and wider than most cars, and it weighs about 3,300 pounds. It can seat four — as well as drag a water skier from behind (preferably once on water).

self parking lexus

Parallel parking is one of those things that simply doesn't get better with age, is it? Lexus LS 460 has an Advanced Parking Guidance System. Basically, the driver points and the car shoot. This car has navigation screen, parking sensors, backup camera and electronic power steering. All the driver has to do is handle speed control by braking.

the new 1969 Camaro


It's big news that Chevrolet is producing an all-new Camaro for the 2009 model year. Are you a fan of old model. Enter the Baldwin-Motion Phase III 540 Camaro. You can get a limited-edition, custom-built, contemporary 1969 Camaro in either coupe or convertible form. The standard engine for the Phase III 540 makes 600 horsepower, but a 700-hp car is also available. This would be a bit expensive.

gold porsche

This 22-karat gold-plated Boxster goes by the name of Gold Porsche. However, if you've got the cash, any Porsche model, regardless of engine configuration or interior, can be covered in the beaten gold. As a buyer, you can choose which of the vehicle's parts to make gold (the body, the steering wheel, the doorknobs, the wheels and so on). For the smallest Boxster, pricing starts at around 150,000 Euros (around $190,000 U.S.). No word on how much heavier the Porsche gets with the flash, but we're sure it's worth its weight in gold.

the all muscle - hunk

Hero Honda’s latest release is hunk. In hunk, the handling is pretty good. But cbz- extreme, hunk fall under same category. The only difference I would say is the out looks of the vehicle. The interiors are almost the same, changed only in exteriors. Anyway the performance of this bike is good. Because it is the ‘all muscle’ hunk.

bajaj discover 150



Discover 150 styling is not up to the mark, tried to make it aggressive. But to me, it looks like overdone. Then what about pulsar 150 now? Are they going to stop the production? They are providing more than a model for same engine capacity. Engine is 150 cc 14.1PS @ 8500r.p.m (i.e. 12.3 NM @ 6500r.p.m) which makes it clear that Discover 150 is a commuter friendly 150cc bike.

The G1’s keyboard is revealed when you slide open its screen. The G1 has copy and paste functionality and its camera is higher-resolution than the iPhone, but, like Apple’s, doesn’t record video.
