Ford Fiesta saloon (2008): first photos

By Digby Fullam First Official Pictures 19 November 2008 10:21 Ford is keeping true to its word in making the Fiesta a truly global car, taking the wraps off the new Fiesta saloon in China this week.

Infiniti M Saloon teased

This is the 'tease' for the Infiniti M Saloon But now Infiniti are ramping up interest in the next generation Infiniti M Saloon (which we haven’t had in Europe so far – think Lexus LS by Nissan) by releasing the teaser image you see here. The Infiniti M will slot in above the Infiniti G37 as a luxury high-performance car and, from this teaser image, it does look as if it’s taken some of the swoopy-coupe lines we saw in the Infiniti Essence Concept back at Geneva. There is no word yet on the powertrain for the Infiniti M, but the Infiniti Essence Concept was said to sport a V6 lump coupled to an electric motor giving the equivalent of 590bhp.

2012 Saab 9-5 & 9-5 SportWagon prices and models

True, it’s always best to be optimistic and plan for success not failure, but wouldn’t it have been pragmatic to wait until Uncle Tom Cobley and all have had their say on whether Saab can take the Chinese Shilling to survive.
