Lamborghini 'Super Sports Car' tease for Frankfurt 2011 (click photo for full image) Lamborghini has a long-standing promise to bring something new to every major motor show, and with Frankfurt only weeks away they are starting to tease a ‘Lamborghini Super Sports Car‘. So far all we’ve got is the image above (click it to see the whole thing) which just says “Discover a new Lamborghini super sports car at the next Frankfurt Motorshow.” So what is this new Lamborghini super sports car?

New options make Prius pricey

High-tech features and luxury options will push the redesigned Toyota Prius into new territory--namely, $30,000-plus. The 2010 Prius hybrid will offer options found on luxury cars: systems that automatically park the car in a parallel parking space and slow the vehicle when a crash is likely. But Toyota is aware of a new competitor--the 2010 Honda Insight, a hybrid that is a little smaller and expected to be less expensive than the Prius.

Volt, Leaf win top safety rating in crash test

The 2011 Chevrolet Volt and Nissan Leaf electric cars won the highest safety ratings in crash tests performed by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, putting them in the top 57 percent of models tested so far this year. About 80 of 140 vehicles tested among 2011-2012 models have received the Institute's "top safety pick," the group's award for state-of-the-art crash protection that exceeds federal safety rules, Institute spokesman Russ Rader said. The Volt and Leaf received a "good" rating -- the highest of four rankings -- on each of four crash tests, said the Institute, which is funded by auto insurers including State Farm, All-State and Geico.
