The open-top version of the McLaren MP4-12C will be the first one to hit the market and battle it out with the new Ferrari 458 Spider. McLaren has already manufactured a prototype of the MP4-12C Spyder with the production version scheduled to be revealed before the end of this year. It is based on the coupe and will be powered by the same 600HP, 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged V8. MP4-12C Spyder will feature a three-piece roof made of aluminum and plastic and, like the 458, its design will be more like a targa than a full convertible due to the buttresses behind the seats that also act as rollover hoops.  Roof operation takes around 17 seconds, 3 more than the Ferrari, and can be lowered or raised at speeds up to 5 mph (8 km/h).

Both lightweight wheels have a five-spoke design with a concave profiling and come in a diameter of 21 inches. The Ferrari version is finished in black while the BMW rim has a gunmetal gray finish.

The prototype car was presented at the motorsport industry association’s 2012 low carbon racing conference.  The ‘lola-drayson B12/69EV’ racecar is believed to be the fastest electric-powered racing car. The Lola-Drayson B12/69EV features Drayson’s brand new 4X2-640 electric drivetrain, inductive charging, composite battery power, moveable aerodynamics and electrical regenerative damping. Its four electric motors are said to deliver a whopping 850 horsepower and a top speed of around 200 mph.   

Utilizing four axial flux oxford YASA motors, the ‘lola-drayson B12/69EV’ generates up to 850 horsepower, capable of attaining speeds of up to 320 km/hour (199 mph). the car travels from zero to 60mph (100 km/hr) in three seconds, and zero to 100mph in 5.1 seconds.  The racecar offers the first real-world implementation of a new generation of lithium nanophosphate battery cells, lasting fifteen minutes. it charges via a qualcomm haloIPT wireless induction system, utilizing recharging pads on the garage pavement that generate energy to the coils built into the floor of the vehicle. precautions were taken to ensure that the batteries discharge upon impact, to minimize risk of explosion or fire. It is expected that the car compete in the first-ever FIA electric car championship planned for 2013.

German tuning firm TIKT believes that there’s plenty of room for improvement Corvette so it introduced a new take on the ZR1 with its Triple X package.  It all starts with the ZR1′s eight-cylinder powerhouse that gets modified cylinder heads, camshafts, valve springs and compressor ratios plus a larger throttle valve, a completely modified exhaust system, a reprogramed ECU and changes to the cooling system. TIKT then moves on to better the Corvette ZR1′s handling through the use of new race shocks, a lowered suspension by a claimed 50mm (1.9 inches), more powerful brakes and a new set of Zerra Ultralight Evo 2 alloy wheels. The tune sees the 6.2-liter unit deliver an output of 758HP (769PS) and a peak torque of 671.2 lb-ft (910Nm). The final touches come in the form of an aero package that includes a new front bumper with a splitter, side skirts and an oversized rear wing, all made from lightweight carbon fiber. Not bad!

The latest model to receive Wald International’s dark "Black Bison" treatment is the Porsche Panamera sports saloon. As usual, the Japanese tuning firm’s package is centered on a raft of styling parts with minimal performance upgrades. That’s what was done. The four-door coupe received a carbon fiber aerodynamic package consisting of a new front fascia with massive air intakes, front fender air vents, beefier rear wheel arches, a boot lid spoiler, as well as a rear diffuser. In addition to that, the Panamera was fitted with a set of five-spoke lightweight alloy rims that come in a two-tone finish, as well as custom tail pipes. In order to bring the vehicle’s look to a whole new level, Wald International also fitted the vehicle with a suspension that brings it closer to the road. Yes!

This will be a limited-production model called E "Superlight" in 2015 featuring the latest in automotive technology. A chassis constructed entirely from carbonfiber is not a novelty, but it’s not common either, being restricted to hypercars such as the Ferrari Enzo and only recently trickling down to supercars like the McLaren MP4-12C. Yet that’s exactly the material Merc plans to use for the E “Superlight”, shaving more than 350 kg (772 pounds) off the weight of a steel-bodied car. Moreover, thanks to its stiffness, it can do away with B-pillars and make the rear doors swing out and then move rearwards, making entry and exit very easy.  Yet that’s exactly the material Merc plans to use for the E “Superlight”, shaving more than 350 kg (772 pounds) off the weight of a steel-bodied car.

Even if this vehicle was propelled by a two-cylinder air-cooled engine, the E Superlight would still be quite impressive.

MKZ Concept, which debuts at the 2012 Detroit Motor Show, marks a new era for Lincoln.  The MKZ Concept is the next step in the reinvention of Lincoln. What’s important about the MKZ study is its styling language along with the ambience and the various gadgets and features of the interior, which looks more production ready than the exterior. On the outside, most surfaces and details are new with the exception of the front end that looks like a slightly more modern version of Lincoln’s current face with a split-wing grille and relatively small headlamps pushed towards the corners. Inside, the concept has seating for four with champagne-colored leather seats, while the passenger enjoying the view from the panoramic glass roof that spans from the windshield to the top of the backlight. Among other features, the MKZ’s cabin sports push-button transmission gear selection, an open, tiered center console and liquid crystal instrumentation.

A modern interpretation of the original Mangusta from the late 1960s. Design proposal blends several characteristic styling cues of the original Mangusta such as the low-placed headlamps with a more angular shaped body that features a pair of scissor doors. Like the original, it had to be spectacular and communicate an impression of wild ferocity and power while recalling the serenity of a feline at rest, and the elegance of the animal that doesn’t need to fear anything.

India will soon have its own sport car thanks to DC Design’s Avanti that was launched at the 2012 New Delhi Auto Expo. Type approval and on-road tests would follow soon. The prototype that was unveiled at the 2012 Auto Expo is constructed around a lightweight but rigid spaceframe chassis. It features unequal-length wishbones and coil over shock absorbers on both axles, 19-inch wheels with 255/35 front and 295/30 rear tires and 330 mm ventilated disc brakes with AP Racing calipers. It is powered by a mid-mounted 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder EcoBoost engine sourced from Ford and tuned to deliver 240HP and 366Nm (270 lb-ft) of torque. Thanks to its compliance with Euro 5 emissions regulations it can also be exported, while a slight change in the engine mapping will make it compatible with the oncoming Euro 6 regulation.  

Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a Ford-sourced six-speed manual gearbox, while the Avanti will also be optionally available with a dual-clutch PowerShift transmission. Although 240HP combined with a dry kerb weight of 1,562 kg (3,443 pounds) isn’t exactly supercar territory, the Avanti will be priced at a reasonable Rs 30 lakh, or around US$56,000 at the current exchange rates.
