Peugeot at the Paris motor show 2008

By Mark Walton Motor Shows 03 October 2008 15:39 Peugeot has a very busy stand at Paris this year. As well as a million look-alike hatches of various sizes, it also showcased its new 'Hy' hybrid technology in a big way - with not one but four new concepts. Taking centre stage is definitely the Peugeot RC Hy Motion4 concept, an amazingly sleek four-wheel drive, four seater, four-door saloon.

Maserati sedan spied near Modena

Maserati has confirmed its upcoming sedan will be called the Ghibli, and a heavily covered four-door model has been captured near Modena, Italy. Is this the purported E-segment sedan that could spell sales volume and an extension of the Maserati brand? We hear the prototype appeared to be smaller than the Quattroporte and with a different interior.

Kia Cadenza (2009) first official pictures

Observant readers may notice more than a little Saab 9-5 at the front, while the side view hints at 3-series and Alfa 159-esque profiling as you follow the lines toward the rear of the car. The European theme even extends to the name: Cadenza is derived from an Italian musical term loosely meaning 'the elaborate flourish of a concerto'. Bravo.
