Italdesign Giugiaro debuts electric Clipper MPV

The Volkswagen T-ROC wasn't the only Geneva Motor Show concept unveiled this week that uses the Golf platform, Italdesign Giugiaro unveiled an MPV concept that managed to turn quite a few heads. Italdesign is owned by Volkswagen, so this design and engineering exercise seemed like a no-brainer, allowing the company to show off an extra concept car in an entirely different wrapper. The Clipper an all-wheel drive six-seat MPV sitting on the MQB platform, which Volkswagen is keen to expand beyond the Golf and the next-generation Scirocco, and it features two electric motors producing 149-hp each, one for each axle.

Koenigsegg One:1 officially revealed – it’s not a Supercar, it’s a MEGACAR

The Koenigsegg One: 1 (pictured) officially revealed ahead of Geneva Cars UK exclusively revealed the first details of the Koenigsegg One:1 back in November 2012, and now it’s heading for its public reveal at the Geneva Motor Show next week. So extreme is the One:1 that Christian von Koenigsegg has dubbed it ‘The world’s first MegaCar’, and looking at the specification he may have a point (it has 1 Megawatt of power). The Koenigsegg One: 1 produces a massive 1340 hp and over 1000lb/ft of torque an weighs 1340kg – the world’s first 1:1 power to curb weight ratio supercar – enough to deliver 2G cornering capability together with 610KG of downforce at 160mph thanks to active under and over body aerodynamics.
