BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe (2015) revealed in patent pics

The BMW 4 Series Gran 4 Coupe is proof that BMW is continuing its efforts to fill every imaginable niche. It's a four-door version of the 4 Series coupe, which itself is based on the 3 Series saloon, and adds to a bewildering array of machines stemming from the F30 3 Series. Officially the 4 Series Gran Coupe, revealed in full in these images from the firm’s design patent, is given the ‘F36’ codename and is expected to be officially unveiled in early 2014. It joins the F30 (3 Series saloon), F31 (3 Series Touring), F32 (4 Series Coupe), F33 (4 Series Convertible), F34 (3 Series Gran Turismo) and F35 (3 Series long-wheelbase saloon) to complete the range of body styles.

Vauxhall Adam & Vauxhall Cascada get new engines Vauxhall (and Opel, for that matter) are on a mission to fit new, more powerful and more efficient engines in cars across their range, and new engines are on their way for the Vauxhall Adam and the new Cascada. The Vauxhall Adam gets a new 1.0 litre 3-cylinder engine from GM’s SGE (Small Gasoline Engine) family that will ultimately offer 3 and 4-cylinder engines up to 1.6 litres. The 1.0 litre 3-pot for the Adam gets 113bhp and 122lb/ft of torque (it’s Vauxhall’s take on the hugely successful 1.0 litre EcoBoost Ford are busy introducing across their range) mated to a new six-speed gearbox.

Gordon Murray T.25: More detail & photos

The Gordon Murray T25 We’ve already made our feelings about Gordon Murray’s ‘T’ cars clear. We think Gordon – creator of the McLaren F1 – is on exactly the right track for City Cars – either the T.25 or it’s electric sibling the T.27 – looking to create cheap to manufacture, small, light and very strong cars powered by either a small, 3-pot engine or by an electric motor. And today we get more detail – and photos – of the T.25, the ICE version.
