Top 10 standout cars at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show!

14/3/2018

Comments

 
It's been a week since the doors for the Geneva Motor Show opened, and they still are until this Sunday.  The big theme this year is eco-friendliness, but with a twist.  The twist is fun!  With cars like the Volvo Polestar 1 and Honda EV concept cars, it seems like manufacturers have finally realized that people want cars that are eco friendly, but also fun.  There's plenty of other interesting non-EV and non-hybrid cars as well, but 10 have stood out more than others.  Hope you approve of the list.

The 2018 Geneva Motor Show is upon us, and there's plenty of new metal to get excited about.  Eco-friendliness, as usual, seems to be the popular theme -- with a seemingly endless list of new electric and hybrid cars.  However, a lot of manufacturers have managed to make them exciting.  It seems that the days of boring, uninspiring eco-friendly cars are going away.  Outside of the world of electric cars and hybrids, there's plenty of exciting new performance cars, as well as a great number of interesting new everyday cars.  The doors open to the public tomorrow, check out these pics to get a preview.

The Swiss Car Event is an annual event taking place at Geneva's Palexpo arena for tuned and custom cars.  Cars range from old Volkswagens to classic American muscle cars, rat rods, exotics and all kinds of souped-up vehicles.  There's also some live stunt driving sessions and dancing from some tuning models.  It was definitely a great place to spend an afternoon, so please check out SOC's photo gallery of the event.

The 2012 Geneva eye catchers

19/3/2012

Comments

 
Opel Ampera/Chevy Volt
Picture
Apart from winning the 2012 Car of the Year award, it’s a plug-in hybrid car that looks good too.  The specs? It has a 150hp electric motor along with 370Nm of torque, with a claimed range of up to 80km (50miles) on a fully charged battery pack.  Its 1.4-litre engine is there only to power a generator when the battery range is low (the engine doesn’t send power to the wheels at any time) – which then extends the range to 500km. It is expensive though – prices start at CHF 52,900 (around $57,000) in Switzerland.


Ferrari F12 Berlinetta

Picture
The F12 Berlinetta drew a huge crowd on press day.  It was easily one of the most anticipated cars of the show – and with 740hp, it’s easy to see why.  Its 6.3-litre V12 engine is the most powerful of any Ferrari road car, which definitely makes it a standout car.  However powerful the engine might be, the design might divide opinion – looking a bit similar to the FF at the front.  However, all is certainly forgotten as you approach its 212mph top speed.
