Audi revealed its luxurious Aicon concept car at the IAA 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show on Wednesday. The futuristic Aicon concept has no steering wheel or pedals, instead of driving autonomously while the driver sits back and relaxes on one of the interior swivel chairs. Audi's Aicon concept is a fully electric vehicle which can travel up to 500 miles on a single charge. The vehicle uses advanced artificial intelligence to navigate while also getting information from the driver using eye tracking and gesture controls.
Until a few years ago the Tokyo Motor Show was one of Asia’s most important motor shows. But the boom in China has meant the show in the Japanese capital has been relegated to the second division. Nevertheless, there are some interesting premieres to marvel at this year.

The profits would still be in "positive territory" after a second-quarter loss of 1.7 billion euros ($1.99 billion). A series of cost-cutting measures launched earlier this year helped VW's performance during the third quarter.

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.
