VIDEO: Saab 9-X BioHybrid Concept: Efficiency at Work

Saab 9-X BioHybrid Concept: Efficiency at Work View Video

Brought to you by: GMNext100.

Saab Automotive AB, a subsidiary of GM, lives up to their US slogan "Born from Jets" in this well put together educational video focusing on aerodynamics. The Saab 9-X BioHybrid concept car is the model for the video.

Interior and exterior designers describe their visions. Exterior: A teardrop shape with a sharp vertical rear-end and a spoiler that increases aerodynamics up to 10%. They also use cameras instead of rear-view mirrors to decrease drag. Cool! The interior has a new design as well with many controls located on the steering wheel and instruments curving around into the door.

The 9-X BioHybrid probably won't be in showrooms until at least 2011. She'll offer a 200 hp 1.4L turbocharged 4 cylinder flexible fuel engine: mix of gasoline or E85 ethanol.

By the way, the 9-X which won best concept car at the Geneva Auto Show will be presented at the 2008 New York International Auto Show, March 21 -30.

BMW Concept CS Videos, Most Amazing Interior ever?




I'm not a big fan of the current 7 series, primarily because it isn't as athletic looking as the car it replaced. Much of that look comes from the long and low stance which I guess BMW decided to cede to Jaguar. So as soon as BMW stepped toward the Mercedes S-Class, Mercedes stepped in with the CLS. Porsche is moving in with the Panamera, and even Maserati and Aston Martin are looking for a piece. So here is BMW's answer for a move back into this sector. Commentary provided by the Director of BMW design.

My Take? the interior is absolutely incredible. BMW needs to stop the assembly line right now and put this interior into SOMETHING they make. The rest of the car is very Maserati meets Aston Martin Rapide....but that is like saying like a girl is a cross between Angelina Jolie and Kate Beckinsale. The front doesn't really do it for me, but the rest of the car is spot on, and that interior?....wow......
