2012 Hyundai i20 Facelift arrives UPDATED

The 2012 Hyundai i20 Facelift arrives a bit earlier than Hyundai planned The Hyundai i20 Facelift for 2012 has arrived a bit earlier than Hyundai planned, with the first photos arriving ahead of its Geneva debut. Update: Hyundai caught up with the news on the i20 facelift and confirmed the changes. But under the skin they’ve also had a play, with a new 1.1 litre 3-cylinder ‘U-II’ diesel which, when mated to Hyundai’s Blue Drive tech, delivers 74bhp and the lowest emissions of any car on sale with a conventional powertrain at just 84g/km.

New Hyundai Test Centre at the Nurburgring revealed

Hyundai’s new test centre at the Nurburgring If anyone had said, just a few years ago, that Hyundai would develop a test centre at the Nurburgring to help shake-down their cars, they’d have been laughed at. But Hyundai – and Kia – have come so far in recent years that it makes absolute sense for them to develop a full-time testing facility at the Nurburgring to test their cars for the road, along with just about every other car maker of note. James May may object to the Nurburgring factor in the suspension set-ups of many road cars (and we do have some sympathy for his point of view), but the sometimes extreme nature of the Nurburgring’s surfaces – and its endless twists and turns, uphill and down – do offer car makers an easily accessible place to test cars in the (almost) real world.

Eterniti Artemis racks up 5 sales at Beijing Motor Show

Eterniti Artemis - first sales at Beijing Despite a price tag of £250k, Eterniti says they have taken five orders for the Artemis SUV at the Beijing Motor Show. Eterniti Motors finally revealed their Artemis SUV at the Bejing Motor Show (that’s the Cayenne based Super SUV formerly known as the Eterniti Hemera), and it came with a whopping price tag of £250k. But despite that (or maybe because of it) the cost of the stand at Beijing seems to have paid off for Eterniti with the first five sales for the Super SUV being taken – four for the standard car at £210k plus tax and one for a completely bespoke version.
