The Legends series will have six special editions of the Bugatti Veyron, each honoring an important personality for the brand.

Renault decided it was time for the Mégane to receive a facelift. The largest changes occurred in the front, while the rest of the car remains more or less the same. It now has a new front that follows the same design seen in more recent models and concepts. The Mégane R.S. and GT have a sportier front-end design.

Seems that Renault is going to bring a new concept to the Frankfurt Motor Show. This will be the sixth concept based on Renault's Lifecycle design philosophy (Love, Explore, Family, Work, Play, Wisdom), but it should preview a new model. There are two possibilities. This could be the next-generation Laguna or possibly the Espace.

With the approach of the Frankfurt Motor Show, more and more news keep coming in. This time it'se Mercedes that decided to first show a few teasers, in the form of design sketches, of the upcoming S-Class Coupé Concept. The successor of the CL will be lighter and as a result will be more fuel efficient.

And here you have the Smart Fourjoy Concept

A few hours after the first teaser, pictures of the Smart Fourjoy Concept appeared online. Nothing else is known, but we can see it doesn't have any doors, it's an electric vehicle, it has room for four passengers, and it serves to preview the next-generation family of Smart cars.

The Lavida is a compact car that is only sold in the Chinese market. The second generation was introduced this year, and now it is time to reveal the cross-themed variant of the Volkswagen Gran Lavida (which is the station wagon). This type of vehicles are highly appreciated by Chinese drivers even if they don't actually leave the city.

Lexus brings the LF-NX concept to Frankfurt

Seems that the car teased by Lexus isn't the long awaited RC and RC-F, but instead a new compact crossover concept named the LF-NX. This hybrid vehicle wants to rival such cars like the Range Rover Evoque, BMW X13, Audi Q3, and Mercedes GLA, but production isn't confirmed, and if that ever happens, the design needs to be toned down.

First official images of the Audi Sport Quattro e-Tron Concept [Updated]

What we have here are the first official pictures of the Audi Sport Quattro Concept that will be shown at the Frankfurt Motor Show.

Seems those patent drawings that i showed you the other day were real. Here you have the first official pictures of the 2014 Land Rover Discovery which is not that different from its predecessor. The public reveal will, of course, take place at the Frankfurt Motor Show that stars next week.

Is this the sporty Lexus GS-F?

A Japanese car magazine seems to have been able to obtain some pictures that show the final look of the GS-F. And not only that, it looks like they also got some information about the engine that will power this beast. Feel free to comment on the Japanese part because i have no idea on what they say.

Jaguar teases their first crossover. See the C-X17 at the Frankfurt Motor Show

On the press release, the British car manufacturer said this concept was created to introduce Jaguar's new, highly-advanced, modular aluminum architecture, but i think there's more behind the C-X17. I believe this is the first time we will see how the company's upcoming crossover will look like.

Alfa Romeo refreshes the Giulietta

This was a highly anticipated facelift. While it still is a beautiful car, even the most diehard supporters of the Italian brand agreed that the interior was something less than desirable in relation to the materials used. Alfa Romeo knew this, so they did a lot to change that and bring it to another level.

The facelift of the Land Rover Discovery appears online

While I can not guarantee the veracity of these images, the source is trustworthy. In these patent drawings we see for the first time the final look of the upcoming Land Rover Discovery, even if the changes are small. From what i can see the headlamps, front grille, front bumper and wheels are the only parts that are new or redesigned.

The Peugeot 5008 also gets a facelift

Peugeot is on fire. First they showed the 308 R, then the 3008, after that the 208 Hybrid FE, and now they revealed the facelifted 5008. The biggest changes happened on the front of this compact MPV, which now follows the same design language used by more recent models of the French car manufacturer, like the 208 and 308.

Some time ago, i showed you two projects made by, or with the collaboration of, Samir Sadikhov (here and here), and today i have the pleasure to show you his latest project, the Aston Martin DBC Concept.
