			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are hosts of motor car shows that are taking place all over the world and now it is the turn of Chicago. These motor car shows bring to you a wide range of concepts that give you reason to woo about and praise.  Kia at this show has launched its latest concept car- The Track’ster. This car is a stylish car that sets an example for the future generation. The car manufacturer Kia, however, has no immediate plans to put Kia into production so far. It is a concept that is all set to herald the new future of crossover cars in the world.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/trackster-kia.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2279" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/trackster-kia.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="360" /></a></p>
<p>When it comes to the looks and the style of this concept car the lines of design are very aggressive. The design of the car is not as boxy as the other models like the Kia Souls that you find on the roads today. This car is one that exudes character and confidence at the same time. Car lovers would love to see this new concept version making its production debut however they still need to wait for the green signal by the car manufacturer to realize their dreams. Currently the designer pictures are only available and from the images we see this car sure does have a sporty and bubbly version.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/infiniti-hybrid-geneva.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2280" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/infiniti-hybrid-geneva.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="394" /></a></p>
<p>The Track’ster is a car that is based on the well known and eccentric Kia Soul model. This car is a more sportier version of the above and it has a 247 bhp petrol engine. It was designed and created by the car manufacturer’s studio at California. Co-incidentally it was here where the original Soul was born. The designers of this future generation car has also produced the Soul’ster convertible that is a concept car that is currently under assessment before it gets the go ahead for production.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is news to rejoice about by the car manufacturers of the Mercedes Benz this year. The model has grabbed the top slot among luxury auto-makers this year. It lost out to BMW last year and has recorded an increase of sales up to 23.8 percent taking the figure up to 20,306 car units sold. The top seller of Mercedes Benz is the C-Class that has about 6525 examples sold in the previous year. This marks an increase of about 56.4% sold over the year. The next best seller was the E-Class that has 4097 units sold. This was less than 14% of the total figures that were sold last year.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/2012-Mercedes-Benz-C-Class2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2274" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/2012-Mercedes-Benz-C-Class2.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="320" /></a></p>
<p>Both the Mercedes Benz and BMW continue to compete for the first place among the luxury automakers in the world. Mercedes has received the better of the two in the first month of the New Year. The 2012 Mercedes Benz C-Class has successfully helped the manufacturer rake up its sales.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/2012-mercedes-benz-c-class-sedan-steering-wheel-view.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2275" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/2012-mercedes-benz-c-class-sedan-steering-wheel-view.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="450" /></a></p>
<p>It beated BMW and came second to Volkswagen in sales for the New Year. The best selling models of Volkswagen-the Jetta and Passat helped the manufacturer sell about 27,209 vehicles in the previous month. This came Volkswagen that is better known as the “people’s car brand” it’s best January ever since President Nixon was in office.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/2012-Mercedes-Benz-C-Class-Coupe-C-250-CDI-Rear-Angle-Speed-1280x960.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2276" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/2012-Mercedes-Benz-C-Class-Coupe-C-250-CDI-Rear-Angle-Speed-1280x960.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="405" /></a></p>
<p>The M-Class series of the Mercedes Benz recorded a sales figure of 4002 units sold that is an increase of 6.1% over the number that was sold last year. The Bluetec diesel series of the car still continues to sell well and it recorded a sales figure of 1327 car models sold in the previous month. This meant a 62% increase from January 2011. The manufacturers of the Mercedes Benz did have a disappointment with the poor sales turn out of its pseudo minivan series-R Class as the sales figure was down by 44% compared to last year.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Ford B-Max concept car was first revealed at the Geneva Motor Show 2011 and its production counterpart has now been released ahead of the Geneva Motor Show 2012. The production version of this car is identical to the concept car version except for the fact that this car has new door handles, an additional quarter light with several light lenses. The front trim grille of this car has also undergone some changes that are noticeable.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/2012-Ford-B-MAX-Picture.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2269" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/2012-Ford-B-MAX-Picture.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="325" /></a></p>
<p>The above production version of the Ford B-Max is based on a similar platform as the Fiesta. The car has a body that is taller and longer and provides the driver with more practicality. Generally the Ford B-Max has doors that are sliding with no central pillar to provide simple access to the seats that are located at the rear of the car.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/ford_b-max_3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2270" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/ford_b-max_3.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="385" /></a></p>
<p>The door has been provided with additional strengthening through the roof. This has been down to compensate for the lack of a B-Pillar in the car. The manufacturers of this car are confident that the Ford B-Max will get a complete five-star Euro NCAP crash rating even though it lacks the presence of the central pillars and this is why according to the designer of the car Stefan Lamm, the doors have been strengthened.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Ford-B_MAX_mp8_pic_78436.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2271" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Ford-B_MAX_mp8_pic_78436.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="450" /></a></p>
<p>The Ford has a new 3 cylinder 1.0 engine that is an Eco Boost one. This engine provides the car with CO2 emissions that are as low as 109g/km. The diesel engines of the Fiesta range will be available also from the manufacturer. The Ford B-Max concept car will go on for sale in the month of September and its prices are likely to begin at £13,000. This car will be on sale with its key rival car brands like Nissan Note, Citroen C3, Picasso and the Vauxhall Meriva.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The VW Up GT is the latest smallest offering from Volkswagen that was first unveiled and introduced as a concept car at the Frankfurt Motor Show of 2011. Currently it is a prototype car version of the 108bhp GTI.  This new version has a power charged turbo cylinder of 1.0 liter with 129 lb ft and 108 bhp. This car does not have a DSG gearbox like the Polo GTI and the enhanced induction power is sent to the engine at the front mount of the car to the front wheels of the car through a manual gearbox that is a six speed one.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/VW-Up-GT.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2264" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/VW-Up-GT.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="397" /></a></p>
<p>There have been restrained changes done on the chassis of the car and it is currently restricted to the sports suspension kit. It has a 15mm drop in ride height along with modified dampers and springs. As per the project leader of the car’s technical team Torsten Oehmke the set up of the new car has the chance of being more extreme.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/VW-Up-GT-2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2266" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/VW-Up-GT-2.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="374" /></a></p>
<p>The drum brakes at the rear of the car in the concept and prototype are going to be upgraded to discs in the production car. Oehmke has also laid down that the production car can also be made in 3 and 5 door models.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/2012-volkswagen-up-interior-19.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2265" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/2012-volkswagen-up-interior-19.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="350" /></a></p>
<p>There will also be visual changes that will include a novel bodykit that does away with the front bumper for a nose that is more aggressive. It will be complete with 911 turbo like running day lights. The bid central intake of the car includes a Golf GTI honeycomb resemblance. This is not for show as the car requires extra cooling for its new turbo charged version. Oehmke also suggests the presence of twin exhausts in the production car however this is just a possibility that can occur in the car.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Houston Auto Show 2012 has been the most awaited car shows as it has been the seeding ground of many breath taking <strong>concept cars</strong>. It has made the auto mobile manufacturers reach out to the common mass and know their tastes and preferences and thus in turn get to produce a car just according to the specifications of the people.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/jeep-rescue-concept-vehicle.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2258" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/jeep-rescue-concept-vehicle.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="394" /></a></p>
<p>Just like before it has now made the Cherokee auto mobile manufacturing brand get to show case their <strong>concept car</strong> to the common public. The latest jeep concept car has been inspired from the consumers. The jeep is the outcome of an online contest where the consumers rather the car lovers pointed it out that they wanted some thing similar to the Grand Cherokee and thus it was lined up accordingly and made in to a concept and catered to the mass.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Jeep_Grand_Cherokee_Interior_1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2259" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Jeep_Grand_Cherokee_Interior_1.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="378" /></a></p>
<p>The engineers of this <strong>concept car</strong> have extended an all black look to the car, and has inspired them to name the car as Darth Vader. The car has been given some of the most distinctive features and has been lined up for mass production. The interior of the car has been featured with leather seats, heated front seats, along with the steering wheel and shifter wrapped in leather as well. The car also ahs a music system for all the music lovers who love to listen to songs while they are driving. The car has incorporated 9 speakers which are of 506 watts along with a sub woofer.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/jeep-grand-cherokee-bluetec-concept-photo-112112-s-1280x782.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2260" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/jeep-grand-cherokee-bluetec-concept-photo-112112-s-1280x782.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="367" /></a></p>
<p>The other features of the car includes Park view rear back up camera, Park sense which is a rear park assisting system, keyless enter n go feature, a hands free communication system and along with a horde of features which ensure the safety and security of the riders effectively and efficiently.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the toughest jobs behind manufacturing a car for the future is not just engineering. There are a host of resources and commitment involved in handling the performance of a car however when it comes to issues pertaining to performance, quality and reliability the task of manufacture comes down to a mechanical procedure. This procedure helps the goals to be measured and understood clearly.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/278631xcitefun-lexus-lf-lc-concept-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2248" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/278631xcitefun-lexus-lf-lc-concept-1.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="369" /></a></p>
<p>This mechanical procedure is one of the one challenging tasks of a car and this is why it has to be done meticulously. The processes need to be checked off one by one before they can be said to be perfect.</p>
<p>Keeping the above in mind Lexus has now been able to recognize the boring car reputation that it has over the years. This is the reason why it is all set to change its course and introduce to the future the Lexus LF-LC Concept Car. In fact, this car also promises to be an inspiration for the other Lexus models that will follow suit.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Lexus-LF-LC-Concept-Premieres-in-Detroit-2131120796.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2249" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Lexus-LF-LC-Concept-Premieres-in-Detroit-2131120796.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="400" /></a></p>
<p>Work on the Lexus LF-LC concept car began in May 2010 and just like the design of any car the people working on it looked for inspiration. They found this influence in nature in the form of the leaf of a tree. The car design captures the smoothness and simplicity of a tree leaf that is complex in shape however having the flexibility to be sculpted into diverse flowing forms of nature. There is an intricate work involved and this provides the much needed style that the car needs.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Lexus-LF-LC-Concept-rear-three-quarters.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2250" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Lexus-LF-LC-Concept-rear-three-quarters.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="376" /></a></p>
<p>The major challenge to the car makers at Lexus is to introduce a car that has a design fit to influence the future. Lexus is stuck with its boring car design tag and this is why it has failed to make an impression on most car lovers who look for both style and performance in their automobile.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Reputed car manufacturer Mazda is all set to overhaul the Miata with a 4 cylinder turbo-charged engine having an exterior that is a more masculine one. There is a brand new 1.3 liter engine that is being used by the company for the Sky Activ technology for saving fuel. This is going to power the car so that it is able to function better than the previous cars that had been manufactured by the company.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/2012-Mazda-Miata-Concept1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2243" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/2012-Mazda-Miata-Concept1.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="400" /></a></p>
<p>The headlights of this new car are narrower and there is a large grille that provides the car with a makeover that is a modest one. There is also a character line that is a sharp one that extends on the back over the sides of the car before it tapers off near the door handles of the car. The car has a new clean shape and is one that is a little less delicate than before.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Mazda-logo_1024x768.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2244" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Mazda-logo_1024x768.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="450" /></a></p>
<p>The car also boosts of a compression ration that is a high one with a direct injection. This gives rise to an internal friction that is reduced and helps to endow the light engine Sky Activ technology equipped Mazda 3 with increased power. This exceeds the expectation of what one might expect along with the fuel economy that is compared to the 2.0 liter inline 4. The power is boosted by about 15% and the car maintains an impressive 6 speed manual too. It has the ability to go up to 40 mpg on the highway when it is empowered with the 6 automatic speeds</p>

<p>This car is going to be on show at the Geneva Auto Show in March. It has a manual soft top along with a folding hardtop that is a power-operated one. It is anticipated that more details on this concept car will be revealed at the Geneva Auto Show and so lets keep our fingers crossed and see what other high-tech features this car promises to offer us.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Detroit has been the venue for show casing some of the best concept cars through its automobile show. There are many numerous car moguls who have chosen this venue to show case their cars as it is one of the best platforms to unveiling the new concept cars. This is the major reason why many car manufacturing companies have chosen this North American city to showcase their car to the common public.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Lincoln-MKZ-Concept1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2231" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Lincoln-MKZ-Concept1.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="487" /></a></p>
<p>The Detroit auto mobile show is an international platform for the unveiling of cars. It has made many cars show case to the common public for the first time, for instance like the renowned car manufacturing companies, Lincoln too has unveiled its latest concept car to the common mass. The new concept car by Lincoln is christened as the MKZ concept in Detroit. The appearance of the car is not much of a concept car it is more like a model of the existing cars and thus gives it a show room ready finish. The manufacturers have said that they have thought of taking the car to the people by the end of this year, the car will be put in to mass production in the second half of 2012.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/lincoln-mkz-concept-2012-detroit-auto-show_100376899_m1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2232" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/lincoln-mkz-concept-2012-detroit-auto-show_100376899_m1.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="369" /></a></p>
<p>The new MKZ concept has incorporated some of its attributes from the earlier design of the 1938 Lincoln Zephyr, even though the modern concept is far cry of the version that has been earlier produced. The roofline of the car is nothing like that of the traditional sedan, it has a panoramic glass sun roof which starts from the wind shield and ends at the top of the back light, this entire sun roof is integrated in to the super structure of the coupe quite efficiently giving it a more enhanced and edgy look.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/10431882-standard.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2233" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/10431882-standard.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="319" /></a></p>
<p>The car is a four seater coupe. The transmission of this concept car has a gear selector which is operated through a push button; there is also a LCD 10.1 inch screen in front of the driver which functions on MY Lincoln touch operations. The car also has another LCD screen measuring 8 inches in the center of the car.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The people of Detroit are eagerly waiting for the automobile show that is going to get started on the 9<sup>th</sup> of January 2012. The Detroit auto show is popular platform for the car moguls to showcase their creations to the common mass. They judge the popularity and the likeability of a car though this show and finally they transform that car from a concept to a real produced version so that the benefits are reaped by all.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/volkswagenebugster-earlypeak-01-627x372.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2224" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/volkswagenebugster-earlypeak-01-627x372.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="356" /></a></p>
<p>Just like any other car manufacturer, Volkswagen too does not leave a stone unturned to make the best of this show for themselves, even though the concept cars which run on electricity have taken a back seat but it has not made these car manufacturers to have second thoughts. Volkswagen is all set to unveil its electric concept car at the Detroit auto show for the first time to the common people. They have christened this new electric concept car and show cased it to the North Americans as the E-Bugster.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/2012-Volkswagen-E-Up-Spied-Interior.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2225" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/2012-Volkswagen-E-Up-Spied-Interior.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="375" /></a></p>
<p>The look of the car is inspired from the new Beetle but it is not entirely the same to look at, the E- Bugster concept car is much more compact and sporty to look at. The new car has incorporated the bulbous look of the Beetle but it has a much more muscular look to it. This is because the engine of this car has a 114 horse power. The other specs of this car include some good features. The car gives out less than 100 miles per charge.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/b69c27b1d1389398c794a113696bd9ef.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2226" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/b69c27b1d1389398c794a113696bd9ef.jpg" alt="" width="595" height="600" /></a></p>
<p>The concept car of Volkswagen is capable of getting its charge back with in a very small time. It can fill up 80% of its lost charge with in 30 minutes. Thus the quick charge capability is a plus point for the car. This is just a concept for the moment with no production in plan for the next year at least.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Finally Volvo is bringing amalgam to the US. Volvo is bringing out a car but it is not a V60 diesel hybrid car. It is the best car next to V60.The car will be displayed on next week at international auto show, which is in Detroit. It is a four cylinder engine with 12kw per hour lithium ion battery pack.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/41612_1_5.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2218" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/41612_1_5.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="389" /></a></p>
<p>X60 gives the car user the choice of three modes. X60 can travel 35 miles and get charged in 3.5 hours at 220V outlet. The car uses electric as well as gas motors. We always wondered what those vacant places were doing   where buttons should be on the x60’s dash. People had a great expectation from this car people want to see lot more about X 60’S. It is a new eight speed automatic consist of modular four cylinder engine. This engine saves the fuel more than other car. Without the battery it increased the efficiency.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Volvo-S60-interior.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2219" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Volvo-S60-interior.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="400" /></a></p>
<p>Peter martin stated that the time has come to stop counting the cylinders. Peter Mertens is Volvo senior VP of research and development. The four cylinder engines are best to reduce CO2 emissions and it is fuel consumption. The customer of the car will get driving pleasure as well as performance. The car consists of four of the four bangers but do not expect a four badge on the rear. The above concept is brought to you by the letter t and also by the number 8.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/volvos-design-sketches-for-the-2014-volvo-xc90_100370981_m.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2220" src="http://www.carsnext.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/volvos-design-sketches-for-the-2014-volvo-xc90_100370981_m.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="304" /></a></p>
<p>The reason behind this concept is hybrid drive train. According to Volvo’s words the car is solely occupied by the eight cylinder engines. If you are thinking of buying a car then Volvo is the most excellent option for you. Hit “hybrid” and get a 50 mpg and a total range of around 600 miles. Volvo is a classic concept car.</p>
