Toyota Land Cruiser

Toyota Land Cruiser



Toyota, world's first carmaker, has revealed the latest generation of the Land Cruiser. At first glance, not so many changes can be noticed. Considering that the Toyota Land Cruiser is 60-year-old and has been bought by five million customers in 176 countries around the world, we can understand that this best-selling 4WD is of strong importance to the Japanese manufacturer.





The new Land Cruiser will only be available as a five-door model with seven seats. There are other models to be released on other European markets but Toyota does not plan to make them available on the U.K. market. This version will come with a 171bhp 3.0-litre D-4D diesel engine with five-speed automatic transmission. The Toyota Land Cruiser will go from 0 to 62mph in 11.7s with a top speed of 109mph.





The Toyota Land Cruiser is quite impressive. With a length of 4.7 metres, a width of 1.9 metre and a height of 1.8 metre, it's going to be a big one. Just for the record, Toyota announced a fuel consumption of 34.9mpg with emissions of CO2 of 214 g/km.
Not really original, but still good to look at.

Toyota Auris Hybrid

Toyota Auris Hybrid



The world's first carmaker Toyota has released some pics of the Auris Hybrid that is going to be fully revealed during the Frankfurt Motor Show.





Visually, nothing really changes from the regular Auris, except a slight alteration of the front bumper. But following the global trend and the success of its Prius, Toyota is now moving a step forward by making a high-scale produced hybrid car.





150 Auris Hybrid will be launched in 2010 for people to try it in real-life conditions. And with the experience Toyota has in this field, we can expect something really good for the little car.

Next Chevrolet Volt

The Forthcoming Chevrolet Volt



The giant American group General Motors has revealed yesterday some new features about the next Chevrolet Volt. As it was expected, the group is designing a hybrid car to comply with the eco-friendly mood that is reaching the automotive industry -and well, we are not going to complain about that.

The Volt is going to be what its name means. GM did not design a fully electric car, but this hybrid seems to be a nice start to try to catch up some other makes (let's say, Toyota, for example). And the American carmaker announces some very interesting figures.

On its battery only, the Chevrolet Volt is said to be able to drive up to 40 miles. And with the classic fuel engine, this figure goes up to 300 miles. But more interesting, the car is expected to achieve city fuel economy of at least 230 miles per gallon.

The Chevrolet Volt is to be released in late 2010. Wait and see...
