Porsche Boxster E: Electric Boxster revealed

Porsche Boxster E - the electric Boxster Last year we reported that Porsche had plans to build a trio of electric Boxsters and send them out to play, to act as a rolling laboratory for all things ‘Electric Car’. At the time, Porsche told us the electric Boxsters would be ready ‘early next year’. Here we are, six weeks in to the New Year, and we get details of the Porsche Boxster E ahead of a reveal at Geneva in a couple of weeks.

Tesla #ModelStranded: the full story

The Tesla Model S is an incredible machine. We'll cover the operating experience soon, but right now I've got a story to tell. It started on a Tuesday morning, when a malfunction of the Tesla's charge port kept me stranded 90 miles from my office.

Opel/Vauxhall Corsa E

If this fifth-generation Opel Corsa looks familiar, that's because this is more a heavy facelift than an all-new car.Opel has concentrated efforts on the eight-year old Corsa's mechanicals rather than an all-new bodyshell. Instead every exterior panel has been redesigned, alongside the entire interior.This is the first Corsa developed under GM Europe's VP of design, Mark Adams and his influence is clear to see, with the incorporation of the lower bodyside 'blade' surface and the pouting mouth of the Adam.While its proportions and upper body are clearly carried over, the new nose treatment in particular disguises the car's high scuttle thanks to the lower grille, lamps and diving shoulderline. The hood also gains a deeply recessed center surface that visually cheats down its height.In order to disguise the carryover glass, the rear of the five-door version's DLO now kicks up at the base of the C-pillar rather than running through into the rear, giving a stronger aesthetic.
