Japanese giant Honda...
Japanese giant Honda says its latest diesel car adds pulling power without affecting insurance premiums. The FR-V people carrier comes with the 140bhp 2.2-litre i-CTDi from the Accord - but due to the focus on safety, the SE model shares a Group 10E rating with its 2.0-litre petrol equivalent. Prices start from í‚áŁ17,300.
The pre-Geneva teasers...
The pre-Geneva teasers are coming thick and fast now ň€“ but none are more intriguing than this! Ultra-exotic Swedish supercar maker Koenigsegg has released this mean and moody shot of a brand new concept called the Quant.
Thereň€™s no information to go by other than one line, which describes the car as a ň€śnew creation for the future.ň€ť Rumours have been circulating about this new model for some time, and suggest that it will sit on an all-new platform for the firm and seat up to four passengers ň€“ possibly in a 2+2 configuration. Mix in an 800bhp+ engine based on the unit used in its CCX supercar range, and itň€™s clear that this will be one concept thatň€™s not easily forgotten.
Another image released by the firm shows a new infotainment system for the CCX and now the Quant, which controls all the entertainment functions as well as the carň€™s mechanical settings from one centralised touch-screen. Watch this space for more Koenigsegg details closer to the Geneva show.
