A number of elegantly designed and high-tech cars were unveiled at Paris Motor Show this year. Here are our picks of the stand-out models…
Ferrari debued their newest supercar, the limited edition LaFerrari Aperta, the convertible version of the original LaFerrari, at the Paris Motor Show on Thursday. However, don't get your hopes up - all 200 models were sold out before the exotic auto was even unveiled. 200 ultra high net worth individuals have already shelled out the 1.86 million euros to reserve the LaFerrari Aperta without ever having even seen the car, earning Ferrari about 372 million euro in revenue.
Volkswagen presented their new electric car, dubbed the I.D., at the 2016 Paris Motor Show at the Porte de Versailles exhibition centre on Wednesday. The I.D. is expected to be available to consumers in 2020 and Volkswagen has announced that an autonomous driving option will become available in 2025. The five-door hatchback with rear-wheel drive has an electric motor positioned at its tail, freeing up space at the front of the vehicle and providing a motor output of 168 horsepower. The car is expected to be able to travel between 250 to 375 miles on a single charge and has options for wired and wireless fast charging capabilities.
The Paris Motor Show, one of the most important auto events in the world, showcased a glamorous line up as high-end brands like Lamborghini and Ferrari are present to display their newest vehicles.
The $1.6 million Venom F5 hypercar from American carmaker Hennessey made its 'global' debut at the Geneva International Motor Show on Tuesday. The carmaker claims that the F5 Venom is able to reach a top speed of over 300mph, which would make it the world’s fastest production vehicle. The lightweight chassis and carbon fibre bodywork give the F5 a curb weight of just under 3000 pounds, not the lightest supercar around. It remains to be seen whether the Venom F5 can actually deliver on the 300mph promise.
The McLaren Senna GTR was unveiled to the public at the Geneva International Motor Show in the Palexpo convention centre on Tuesday. Inspired by Formula 1 icon Ayrton Senna, the $1million supercar is made of lightweight carbon fibre and comes in five colours, including the same yellow and green scheme used by Senna. Each Senna GTR takes over 1,000 hours to produce, which contributes to the eye-watering price tag.
