Driven: a week with a Chevrolet Volt

In Fall 2010, before the Volt went on sale in North America, we sampled an early build model and came away so impressed, we declared it the car for the digital age. Since then the car has received harsh criticism from the press and been outsold by the Nissan Leaf in the North American market. Given the unique powertrain, we felt longer exposure to the Volt was therefore in order, so on a recent trip to Michigan, we lived with one for five days.

2013 Audi A6 Allroad unveiled

2013 Audi A6 Allroad revealed Audi are busy showing off the new A4 Allroad at the Detroit Auto Show, but this morning they have revealed its big brother – the 2013 Audi A6 Allroad in Germany. Audi has only just launched the 2012 A4 Allroad – which is on show at the Detroit Auto Show as we write – but they’ve already got its big brother ready to show – the 2013 Audi A6 Allroad. Audi has taken the usual Allroad recipe for the A6 by taking the basics of the A6 Avant and making it rufty-tufy and ready for the urban jungle.

Michelin Pilot Super Sport launches

Ferrari 458 Italia - just one of the Michelin Pilot Super Sport shod Supercars at the launch At the beginning of October – when it was already starting to feel as if we were in mid-winter on some days – the nice man from Michelin (that’s Paul, not the Michelin Man) called and asked us if we’d like to go and play with their new tyre – the Michelin Pilot Super Sport -  on some appealing cars. Sadly, too few staff and too much to do meant we had to decline his kind offer. Although it was very hard to do when we realised it would have meant a few days in the sun in Dubai and the chance to drive some of the world’s finest cars, shod with Michelin’s replacement for the Pilot Sport PS2.
