Fiat 500 – kind to animals and the environment!

Not just a Fiat 500 crash - a Fiat Panda crash too! But Fiat is really on a roll at the moment, and has obviously taken as much care with its Ad Agency as it has with its strategy to take over the car world. The result is a set of adverts that promote the safety of the little Fiat 500 and the environmental impact of the Fiat range, in a set of creative ads featuring a Fiat 500 crash test involving a Giant Panda, a Walrus and a Penguin.

USA, UK & Germany will be top markets for the new BMW i8. You don’t say?

The BMW i8 (Pictured) will sell best in US, UK & Germany In a case of stating the obvious in a bid to keep interest in the BMW i8 high ahead of its debut at Frankfurt next month, Hendrik Wenders – the i8 product manager – has declared the biggest market for the BMW i8 will be the USA. As America is already BMW’s biggest market place, that’s not entirely a shock, and nor is the news that the UK and Germany will be the biggest markets in Europe.

Vauxhall Corsa ecoFlex 98g/km revealed

The new Vauxhall Corsa ecoFLEX for 2010 with 98g/km CO2 emissions As I think we’ve said before – another day, another Eco car. A few days a go we had the new BlueMotion Golf coming in at a chunk under it’s previous iteration on the CO2 emissions front, and today we’ve got Vauxhall’s baby being revealed for 2010 sporting CO2 emissions of 98g/km – which makes a change from the ubiquitous 99g/km figure. The new Corsa ecoFlex manages to trim the CO2 emissions from 105g/km on the previous Corsa ecoFLEX model to 98g/km – and therefore a freebie VED – with even the 5 door version sneaking below the 100g/km threshold.
