Ford Edge stars at 2013 LA Motor Show

Unveiled to same fanfare at the LA Motor Show, the Ford Edge Concept gives us more than a hint as to what Ford’s new full-size SUV will look like. It’s part of Ford’s bold plan to build ‘world cars’ that suit every market, not just supersized Americans. Based on the Mondeo, it will sit above the Kuga in Ford’s line-up and we reckon a European version could be launched as early as next year.

It’s the Skoda Citigo, Skoda’s take on the VW Up!

Skoda Citigo If the latest addition to the Skoda range – the Skoda Citigo – looks familiar, that’s because it’s the Czech maker’s take on Volkswagen’s own city car, the VW Up! It gets a daft name too, but at least it doesn’t get the exclamation at the end. Sensibly, with a big chunk of the world falling in love with little cars designed for use in our congested cities (and about time too), Skoda has chosen to jump on the bandwagon quickly with its Citigo, with the baby Skoda arriving on its home turf – the Czech Republic – this year and the rest of Europe by Summer 2012.

Jaguar SUV (C-X17) gets a new paint job & 5 seats: Guangzhou Motor Show

Jaguar SUV (C-X17) gets a new paint job & 5 seats Jaguar are certainly making the most of their SUV Concept – the Jaguar C-X17 – with the latest version arriving at the Guangzhou Motor Show in China this week. At first glance, the C-X17 looks to have moved on from the original concept’s blue paint job – via the silver repaint for Dubai – to a half decent shade of gold to appeal to Chinese buyers. But the China C-X17 actually goes a bit further than that by taking the C-X17′s four-seat configuration and adding an extra shaped seat in the back for a proper five-seat layout. There’s also some added luxury in the form of wood veneer door panels.
