Ssangyong Concept XUV 1 Frankfurt debut

Ssangyong Concept XUV 1 first tease Not content with rolling out an all-new SsangYong Korando Crossover, Mahindra & Maghindra’s newly-revived Korean enterprise is now out to tackle the likes of the Nissan Juke, with a new concept at the Frankfurt Motor Show next month –  the Ssangyong Concept XUV1.

Citroen to launch range of Green, Eco cars

Citroen C-Cactus Concept will form the basis of a new range of Citroen Eco-Cars The first of the new range will be based on the existing C4, but feature bodywork based on the C-Cactus Concept (but a wee bit prettier, we hope) and featuring a range of green and economical propulsion systems. Under consideration are an electric version (EV),  a  form of hybrid technology or simply lopping a cylinder off and aiming to bring the Co2 down to under 100g/km.
