Mercedes-Benz presented its jaw-droppiing hybrid electric Project One supercar at the 2017 Los Angeles Auto Show on Wednesday. The Project One is inspired by Mercedes' Formula One race-technology and comes with a 1.6-liter V6 hybrid, over 1,000 horsepower, and a blistering fast top speed of nearly 220 miles per hour. Of course, the $2.7 million price tag ensures that the Project One will only end up in the garages of the super wealthy.
This is the new Toyota Century, an exclusive car only available for VIP clients to purchase by invitation only, and it's the first update of the model in 20 years. The luxurious Toyota Century has gone through minimal body style changes, as it is regarded as a tradition which should remain constant through the years. However, the previous model of the Century came equipped with a powerful V12 engine, but the new model features a 5.0-litre V-8 hybrid.
Aston Martin showed off its new Vanquish Zagato Volante on Wednesday, as part of Monterey's Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance 2017 car event. Only 99 units of the new model have been produced, and each comes with the astonishing price tag of $850,000. However, prospective buyers will have to curb their enthusiasm, since all of them have already been sold.
Italdesign and Airbus unveiled the 'Pop.Up', the world's first fully electric, zero emission, drone-carried vehicle, at the Geneva International Motor Show on Tuesday. The 'flying car' was designed to help relieve traffic congestion in cities by simply flying out of traffic. The car's driver sits in a frame that is fitted within an autonomous car. When traffic builds up, the driver has the opportunity to escape through calling a drone on their iPhone to wherever they are sitting. The drone then lifts the capsule into the air, and carries it and the driver off to unpolluted freedom. Of course, flying cars present many problems with air traffic control and safety, so the technology is not quite ready for mass adoption, but the concept is exciting. How you you like to simply fly up and over traffic in Airbus' Pop.Up drone lifted car?
