Fiat 500 by Zagato

Fiat's little 500 has been around for a while now, but thanks to Zagato the diminutive city car has received a new persona.

The 500 Zagato Coupe acquires the trademark ‘double hump' roofline, as well as an evolution of the ‘cross over' C-pillar.

University of Huddersfield Degree Show 2004

Nov 13, 2004 - Final year undergraduate students from Britain's University of Huddersfield displayed their work at their annual degree show exhibition in Huddersfield, and also at the New Designers exhibition held in July at the Business Design Centre in London.

Volvo testing new safety features

Volvo outlined three new technologies that it says will help make the Volvos of the future a good deal safer: autonomous driving, “Intersection Support” and animal detection. Volvo says it's tailoring technologies to the way people drive, by which it means poorly. The company claims that “surveys from three different research institutes in the United States reveal that modern drivers spend 25 to 30 percent of their time behind the wheel doing other things, such as focusing on mobile communication.” Volvo's new technologies are said take this into account and “provide the driver with the right support at all times.” By using a camera and radar, future Volvos will be able to follow the car in front while driving in slow traffic using an autonomous-driving function.
