Koenigsegg Agera R claims world speed records

Koenigsegg Agera R claims world speed records We are constantly amazed at what the three men in a shed in the snow in Sweden that are Koenigsegg Automotive AB can achieve. All the way from the first Koenigsegg, the CC8S,  to the very latest, the Koenigsegg Agera we got up close and personal with at Goodwood this year, and it’s bonkers big brother – the Koenigsegg Agera R. From the CC8S to the Agera R, Christian von Koenigsegg has always trod his own, very particular, path to supercar performance.

Infiniti IPL (Infiniti Performance Line) G Coupe revealed

The Infiniti Performance Line G Coupe - more warm than hot In May we were reporting that Infiniti were teasing a pair of ‘New’ cars which they said would be making an appearence at Pebble Beach this year. One of those new cars was to be a performance model, the other mainstream.

Aston Martin Lagonda SUV still moving forward

New reports suggest Aston Martin is still pushing forward with the Lagonda SUV, with underpinnings from the Mercedes GL. Last year we reported the Lagonda SUV was back on (although we’re not sure when it was actually off – just MIA) and that it was Aston Martin’s hope they could raid Mercedes parts bin for the underpinnings of the SUV, and take on the building of a new Maybach for Mercedes in the process. But as we now know, Mercedes has decided a Pullman S Class has more cachet (and less build cost) than  the glitter ball Maybach, so Aston Martin’s hopes of a nice profitable design and build deal evaporated with the last roll of the dice for the Maybach brand.
