BMW Serie 3 F30: il video e tutte le immagini ufficiali
Il lancio della nuova BMW Serie 3 si sviluppa attraverso la pubblicazione di quasi 100 nuove immagini, abbinate ad un filmato che dovrebbe fugare qualsiasi dubbio relativo alla nuova estetica del corpo vettura. I designer hanno preferito lavorare di cesello, modificando le linee senza tuttavia stravolgere l'impronta della E90: la fiancata si presenta quasi immutata ed è nuovamente riconoscibile per la profonda nervatura, mentre il posteriore richiama la cifra stilistica della...

Gymkhana 0.2: Sin dinero ni Ken Block (ni falta que hace)

Video: Australia takes the fear approach to motorcycle safety [w/poll]
Filed under: Government/Legal, Marketing/Advertising, Safety, Videos, Australia, Motorcycle Safety advocacy is a touchy subject when it comes to the motoring world. After all, everyone has heard the warnings about buckling up, drinking and driving, and more recently, the dangers of distracted driving. And while we applaud the intent of these messages, we can't help but have our doubts about how effective most of these campaigns are....

On-line la Gymkhana 0.2. Ma questa volta Ken Block non c'entra...
Ci sono gli sponsor, c'è una Ford e ci sono anche i ralenti, elemento da cui le vere Gymkhana non possono prescindere. Manca invece Ken Block e tutta la patinata fase di post-produzione, sostituita da riprese che hanno tanto il sapore del "buona la prima". Questo filmato non ha infatti nulla a che vedere con i quattro precedenti capitoli, ma rappresenta la semplice parodia di una formula ormai collaudata....

Report: Clarkson contract blunder leads to cancellation of Top Gear TomTom GPS
Filed under: Europe, Government/Legal, Technology Those of you hoping to hear the boisterous voice of Jeremy Clarkson coming out of your TomTom GPS are going to be quite disappointed. As it turns out, part of the BBC's editorial guidelines state that none of the Top Gear presenters can endorse motoring products, and thus, having Clarkson screaming out of your TomTom is a clear violation of this policy.

Supercharged Hyundai Genesis Coupe Heads to SEMA—Could It Make It to Production?
We probably shouldn't get too far ahead of ourselves.

Nissan Announces New Hybrid Powertrain With 2.5-Liter Supercharged Four and Lithium-Ion Battery
Nissan may be generating electric buzz with the new Leaf, but when it comes to hybrids, the company has never been a leader.
