Lexus LF-Ch – Official release ahead of Frankfurt

Official pictures of the Lexus LF-Ch premium Hybrid Well, Lexus didn’t really have much choice after their new baby – the Lexus LF-Ch – leaked like a sieve from every outlet at Lexus. First we had a leaked front shot of the LF-CH, followed soon after by a leak of the full set or release pictures. So, pragmatically, Lexus has bitten the bullet and sent us all the details.

SEAT Alhambra (2010 / 2011) revealed

SEAT has revealed the 2011 Alhambra After we had the official reveal of the 2010 VW Sharan last month at Geneva, it’s not a huge shock that we now get the reveal of SEAT’s version of the Sharan – the SEAT Alhambra. We don’t think SEAT had planned on revealing the Alhambra quite yet, but there are undisguised spy shots flying around the Interweb so they obviously decided to be pragmatic and send out some info – and pictures – earlier than planned. Just like the Sharan, the latest Alhambra is an all new job based on VW’s new flexible MQB platform so, just like the Sharan, the Alhambra is wider and longer than the current model, but also weighs less.

Mercedes try to 'bring the noise' back to F1

With F1 chief Bernie Ecclestone amongst those to question the enjoyment of listening to the new engines, the teams decided to look into ways of making it a more pleasurable experience.
