Citroen DS3 DStyle Pink & DSport Pink special editions revealed

Citroen DS3 DStyle Pink & DSport Pink special editions revealed The Citroen DS3 is one of our favourite cars – although it is starting to get a bit long in the tooth now –  and Citroen has decided to give New Year sales a bit of a boost by launching a pair of ‘Pink’ Special Edition DS3s for the UK. Both Pink Special Editions – the DS3 DStyle Pink & DSport Pink – come with a fuchsia pink roof, door mirrors and wheel centre caps and a fuchia pink painted dashboard and colour-cided gear knob to carry on the pinkness inside. Either model can be had with a Polar White or Perla Nera Black paint job and extra toys to make them a bit more appealing, with a total of four engines available across the DStyle and DSport.

Mitsubishi PX-MiEV Concept at Tokyo

The Mitsubishi PX-MiEV Concept - a hybrid crossover The ‘PX’ bit of the name is Mitsubishi’s code for Plug-in Hybrid Crossover (saves a bit of room on the boot lid), so the PX-MiEV gets a 1.6 litre 4-pot to drive the front wheels together with an electric motor. An additional electric motor is used to power the rear wheels when circumstances dictate. The PX-MiEV can also run for up to 30 miles in EV mode, after which it turns in to a hybrid to drive and recharge the batteries.
