Honda’s showstopper at the 89th Geneva Motor Show was the e Prototype – which previews the company’s future electric models for Europe. Cut to 2019, Honda has taken a step further in that direction and presented the e Prototype, which is positioned as the next-gen urban commuter. The production version of the e Prototype will be revealed later this year, says Honda. The Honda e Prototype has a range of 200km on a single charge and also boasts of a fast charge function that charges the batteries to give 80 per cent range in 30 minutes, according to the company. It has garnered some interest, as Honda claims that it has received 15,000 registrations for the e Prototype in Europe. Tom Gardner, Senior Vice President, Honda Motor Europe said: “Since we made that first pledge in March 2017, the shift towards electrification has gathered pace considerably. Environmental challenges continue to drive demand for cleaner mobility. Technology marches on unrelenting and people are starting to shift their view of the car itself.”

Goodyear’s concept tyres aim to stretch the imagination and spark a debate on future mobility challenges and the tyres and associated technologies needed to address them.While they are purely conceptual designs, some of the featured technologies within these tyres – such as non-pneumatic structures or intelligent tyre capabilities - are inspired by existing products or ongoing research and development projects in the company. Other parts of the concepts, and the thinking behind, might become the basis for future mobility solutions.
The amazing Abarth 595 esseesse is back, breathing new life into a name deeply rooted in the brand's history, looking right back to its origins, when the Sixties tuning kits made Karl Abarth's fortune as the inventor of the kits designed to boost the performance of mass production cars.

Built around near-future technologies such as its advanced Battery Electric drivetrain, the Lagonda All-Terrain Concept is an ultra-stylish, supremely luxurious, fully electric emission-free vehicle that can transport its occupants to remote and spectacular locations. It develops the designs and materials seen in last year’s widely acclaimed Lagonda Vision Concept, tailoring them for the new and challenging environments that an all-terrain vehicle is capable of reaching. Lagonda aims to be the world’s first zero emission luxury brand.
