New Hyundai i30 gets 5 Star Euro NCAP rating

New Hyundai i30 gets 5 Star Euro NCAP The new Hyundai i30 is back in the news with an impressive 5 Star Euro NCAP rating in the latest round of tests. The new Hyundai got off to a good start when VW’s boss complained it was too well made, and since then Hyundai has gone on to prove that point by letting a ‘Flange’ of Baboons loose on the new i30 without any significant harm – to baboons or the i30. Now the official word on the i3o’s quality – certainly in terms of safety – comes with the award of 5 Stars in the latest round of Euro NCAP testing, making the new i30 one of the safest cars in the C-segment.

Jaguar F-Type Coupe teased again ahead of debut

The new Jaguar F-Type Coupe’s curves With the real F-Type about to be revealed in Los Angeles – the Jaguar F-Type Coupe – Jaguar has already started garnering interest with the first teaser photo of the F-Type Coupe. That photo showed a birds-eye view of the new F-Type Coupe – complete with panoramic glass roof – but this time Jaguar has revealed what could be the money shot – the view from the rear three quarters looking along the side of the new F-Type and highlighting its curves. It’s a view that is reminiscent of the same angle on the E-Type – no bad thing – even if we don’t expect the F-Type Coupe to keep the E-Type’s side-hinged rear hatch we saw on the C-X16 Concept.
