2014 Lexus CT 200h gets a price cut

2014 Lexus CT 200h (pictured) gets a price cut The 2014 Lexus CT 200h was revealed at the Guangzhou motor show in China back in November, and now it’s ready to order in the UK with a raft of updates and a price cut across almost the whole range. Now starting from £20,995 for the CT 200h S – £1,00 less than before – the S also sees its emissions reduced to just 82g/km and extra visual appeal with a new grill that makes the car seem wider and lower. Further up the CT 200h range, the F Sport gets the new spindle grill the IS F Sport gets as well as a new spoiler at the back with integrated air ducts.

Honda’s Insight for Europe revealed

  Honda Insight for UK undercuts the Prius [ad#ad-1] Last week at the Detroit Motor Show, Honda revealed its Prius-challenging Insight Hybrid, and has today revealed details on the UK/Euro version. The new Insight, which utilises a 1.3 litre petrol engine with 88bhp, coupled with a 14bhp electric motor to give a 0-60 of just over 12 seconds and 113mph, has very low Co2 of 101-105g/km (which means just £35 VED – but if only they’d shaved that a smidge it would have been a freebie) which is very creditable. Honda has the Prius firmly in its sights with this car, and it aims to comfortably undercut the Prius on price.

Concept Car of the Week: Pininfarina Peugette (1976)

Unveiled in 1972, the Peugeot 104 was a compact car with a simple and honest design by Paolo Martin. The most powerful ZS model was more of a warm hatch than a hot one, but it did feature a 1124cc engine with 66bhp. Thanks to the car's weight of only 760kg, the car could reach speeds of up to 100mph - terrifying in a 104.
