Range Rover Evoque is Women’s World Car of the Year 2012

Range Rover Evoque WWCOTY 2012 The judging panel of the Women’s World Car of the Year has voted the Range Rover Evoque overall winner and Luxury car of the year. Has there been a car award in the last year for which the Evoque was eligible and didn’t come out on top? To add to its trophy cabinet the Evoque can now call itself  ’Women’s World Car of the Year 2012′ after the judging panel of women journalists from 12 countries voted the Range Rover Evoque the Supreme winner as well as Best Luxury Car 2012.

Tesla Model S goes up in price

The electric Tesla Model S – which won’t arrive in the UK until at least late in 2013 – is going up in price in the US and gets a spec change. The Tesla Model S is perhaps, just perhaps, the only really credible electric car so far; a luxury ‘Sports’ saloon car that offers range almost comparable to an ICE car and, it seems, prices that aren’t an awful lot different. That makes it a far more appealing prospect as a replacement for an ICE car than anything we’ve previously seen.

Late-brakers are 'biggest irritation on the road'

DRIVERS WHO brake at the last minute and then turn without signalling are the most annoying on the road, according to a new poll. 2,000 people were surveyed by First Bus who then compiled the 50 most annoying motoring bugbears, with late brakers topping the chart. High parking charges also appeared in the top ten, as did dangerous behaviours such as tailgating, being cut up, drivers using mobile phones and motorcyclists weaving through traffic.
