Ergonomics salon electropenalty Octavia is the same as gasoline and diesel is universal: in the back row freely placed three adult passengers. In this case, the trunk on the electrical modification was reduced to 115 liters - 490 liters.

Sports hatchback Astra GTC Paris with sculptural shapes and trendy 21-inch wheels is named after the largest auto show, where he made his debut today, September 30.

Astra GTC Paris length of 4.46 m is a prototype next-generation Astra GTC. Under the hood lies the concept of a 2,0-liter 220-strong turbocharged engine with direct injection, aggregated to the 6-step "mechanics". Fuel-saving system helps to Start / Stop, which disables the engine at short stops in city traffic.

Opel GTC is different from "basic" five-door Opel Astra brighter look of the front and rear of the car, and a sloping roof in a trendy style today compartment. Despite the presence of all three door concept proved to be longer than the five-door version (the length of the GTC 4.46 meters) and, therefore, still, can accommodate five adult passengers.

Now complement diode lighting in a circle, effectively delineated parallelograms exhaust pipes and 21-inch alloy wheels.

Is it just a reminiscence of the anno 1980 Audi quattro or already presented a preview of a small sports car with four rings? This question should provide many visitors to the Paris Motor Show (2 to 17 October 2010) at the sight of the Audi quattro concept study.

From the first look at the "Col de Turini and white" painted show car appeared on the memory of a legendary ancestor: the 306 hp strong and at the time of 200,000 Mark expensive Sport Quattro was a shortened quattro variant and provided the basis for the famous Rally cars with Walter Röhrl at the wheel. For the current study, a series of transport was reduced, because the base supplies the Audi RS5. Compared to the four-seat coupe, the rear overhang has been reduced by 20 centimeters, the result is a length of 4.28 meters. At the same time, the wheelbase was shortened by 15 inches and lowered the roof line about four inches.

The body of the Audi quattro concept is mainly made of aluminum, there are the hood and the trunk lid as well as other components made of carbon. The result suggests a weight of 1,300 kilograms to book, almost exactly the level of the 1984 Sport Quattro presented. Eye-catching design features are the strongly contoured C-pillar, 20-inch wheels and a large single-frame grille without chrome frame. All lighting units use LED technology, the rear lights remind their straight shape of the Audi 100 from 1976.

With the Peugeot HR1 visualizes his ideas for a compact SUV in the style of the Mini Countryman. With 3.69 meters, the Peugeot-study is about 30 centimeters shorter than the production model from Munich. The HR1 its public debut at the Paris Motor Show (2 to 17 October 2010).

Lambo-style doors
Striking at HR1, the electrically operated scissor doors in the Lamborghini-style. Another design idea: The roof rails acts as a hinge for the tailgate. As usual with recent studies, working front and rear lights with LED technology. A special feature is that the light can be darkened to the interior of electrochromic glass control surfaces in the roof. In the interior areas of the driver and front passenger with a high center console to be distinguished from each other. A head-up instrument cluster keeps the most important information is always in view of the driver. A special feature is the use of audio, navigation and climate functions via motion detection: With a rotation of the hand can rotate the menus like a carousel. A sign from left to right with the menu operation by the driver on the front passenger. Otherwise, the passenger's view, the driving data with a Tablet PC.

Longitudinal sliding seats
The HR1 has four sliding along individual seats. Move to the rear seats fully back, there remains a luggage capacity of at least 180 liters.

Only systematic light makes a true sports car fast, already knew the Lotus founder Colin Chapman. Lamborghini shows now at the Paris Motor Show , the possibilities for the use of carbon fiber technology offers.


to view objects in the truest sense of the word is the breathtaking study Sesto Elemento, with V10 engine and permanent four-wheel drive weigh only 999 kilograms. This allows, according to Lamborghini, a power weight of only 1.75 kg per horsepower and acceleration to 100 kph in just 2.5 seconds. The name of the technology demonstrator, translated "the sixth element," is derived from the scientific periodic table. As of that very sixth element is there out of carbon. Several innovative technologies are at carbon fiber Sesto Elemento first used in the automotive industry.

The base of the Super-Lambo is an extremely strong but lightweight structure of carbon fiber. The passenger compartment is made as a monocoque. The entire front frame, the crash boxes and the outer skin parts are also made of CFRP. This abbreviation stands for "carbon fiber reinforced plastics", ie, carbon-fiber-reinforced plastics. When Sesto Elemento also essential parts of the suspension and the rims are made of carbon fiber. The exhaust tailpipes are made of Pyrosic, a glass-ceramic composite material, temperatures of up to 900 degrees withstand. The propeller shaft is made of CFRP. "Very well over 300 km / h" is the maximum amount of Sesto Elemento manufacturer. Made possible by the 570-hp V10 from the Gallardo LP 570-4 Supperleggera. Transfer will be changed by the power of an E-Gear transmission, the six gears via paddles on the steering wheel.

The edition-Lamborghini takes over the large rear wing and engine cover with the sleek vents directly from the racing models of Blancpain series. Wheels come in addition Skorpius design and yellow-painted brake calipers, which sit on carbon-ceramic brake discs. Exterior parts such as the diffuser or the mirror housing are made of carbon fiber.

At the end comes out of a Lamborghini, which weighs 1340 kilograms - which the car is the easiest road car in the brand's model range is. The Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera comes with its 1410 as many as 70 kilograms more than the Blancpain on the scale.
