Fiat 500 Blackjack Limited Edition

Fiat's latest Limited Edition 500 - The Fiat 500 Blackjack Anything MINI can do, Fiat can do too with the Fiat 500. So – in the best MINI school of marketing style – yet another Fiat 500 is to hit the road – this time the Fiat 500 Blackjack. The Fiat 500 Blackjack is a cash-in on that flavour of the moment – matt wrap (we are assuming it’s a wrap) – to give a matt black 500, which actually looks rather good to our eyes.

Ford aims at VW with new 2013 Focus ST video

We don’t do much complaining here at Autoweek—unless you’re clogging up the left lane—and overall we know we’re very lucky to be in our position. But we’re not quite as lucky as Ford factory drivers Ken Block and Vaughn Gittin Jr., who get an entire abandoned neighborhood to play around in with the new Focus ST. Block grabs the Focus and Gittin Jr.

Nissan LEAF becomes London Taxi

Nissan has been ferrying Londoners and tourists round the capital in the Nissan LEAF EV free of charge as part of its ‘Big Turn On’ campaign. Yesterday we reported that a Nissan LEAF was going to go backwards up the hillcimb at Goodwood in a bid for a reversing speed record, and to draw attention to the LEAF’s strengths as part of Nissan’s ‘Big Turn On’ campaign. We’re not too sure how being able to go backwards as quickly as you can forwards in a LEAF is a big selling point, but Nissan’s stunt in London this week is far more relevant – they’ve been offering fee taxi rides in the electric LEAF to tourists and Londoners alike.
