2012 PG Elektrus

Caution: the 2012 PG Elektrus is not for the faint of heart. It's also not for those who like to blend in.

Instead, this electric car is for the person who wants to stand up and out and be noticed by one and all, because that's exactly what happens to people who buy this car. Not only do you look good, but you get to help the environment.

Familiar Look

The 2012 PG Elektrus is based on a Lotus frame, so if the car looks familiar to you, that is why. The Elektrus combines the sexy smoothness of the Lotus with a gnarling open grill that makes one think Mad Max might be just over the horizon.

It's an electric car with both an attitude and a new look on life. It also likes to go fast. How fast? How does zero to 60 mph in three seconds sound? We agree: it's pretty impressive.

Performance

Under the hood of the PG Elektrus sits a 268 HP engine that manages 258 lbs-ft of peak torque. Just so you know, this isn't a Prius. With a top speed of 155mph, the PG Elektrus is made for the person who has just about everything; everything, that is, except the coolest electric car on planet Earth.

Electric

Made in Germany, the PG Elektrus has a range of over 200 miles. That in and of itself is quite impressive when it comes to an electric car. The Elektrus can be charged from a standard outlet, which means you can plug this awesome car in while you are baking a casserole.

Of course, it takes about eight hours to charge, but it's worth it. There is simply no other electric car on the road today that is as cool as the PG Elektrus. It also comes with its own solar panel, which is mounted on the back and continually collects power from the sun.

Handling

The Elektrus has excellent handling, and when it takes corners it shows its true racecar lineage. This is a driver's car meant for someone who truly enjoys everything about a sports car, from the look to the feel to the sound to the smell. If you are interested in saving the planet while you find its coolest roads, the Elektrus is the car for you.

Citroen DS5 Does the bold new family car deliver on the promise of its looks?

It’s not fairly often a replacement automobile comes along that creates you shout out ‘wow’. however the Citroen DS5 isn’t like the rest on the road. it's additional sort of a one-off motor show concept than one thing you'll get.

The interior is even more dazzling than the exterior, plus it feels great – definitely Citroen’s best quality yet. Everything you touch oozes class: the dash is made from a material so soft that a passenger airbag probably isn’t necessary; the watch-strap-style ‘Club’ optional leather seats resemble those in a Ferrari and the solid metal door handles are like pieces of modern art.

The DS5 is cool – so cool that you want to fall in love with it. But will it break your heart? We found the Hybrid4 version flawed when we drove it in December 2011. Fortunately the diesel is much better. It’s quiet, smooth and, thanks to a nice spread of thrust, delivers strong performance. Economy and emissions impress, too.

It’s simply a shame that the slick six-speed gearbox is that the solely a part of the DS5 expertise which is able to please keen drivers. The steering is therefore imprecise it feels as if the wheel is connected to the rack by a slinky spring, whereas the wallowy handing isn't any match for a Ford Mondeo, plus cars just like the BMW three Series, that the high worth puts the DS5 in direct competition with.

Obviously, this being a Citroen, the trade-off is a ride as smooth as melted chocolate, right? Sadly not. Even though the car feels softly sprung, the suspension crashes over bumps.

If you spend most of your time on the motorway, none of this will be an issue. However, in the cold light of a daily commute, the novelty of the DS5 soon wears off – and what you thought was love turns out to be lust.

There is a reason road cars don’t look like concepts: the design on the outside demands compromises inside. And you’ll soon become irritated by the Citroen’s limited rear headroom, split back window, awkward button layouts, tiny glovebox and useless cup-holders.

When you drive one thing with less ‘wow’ issue – sort of a Volkswagen CC – you realise one thing the Germans have known for ages: boring works.

Nissan has released the first images of the all-new Altima sedan as New Yorkers and the automotive media get their first glimpse of the concept Ellure-inspired model at the New York Auto Show which begins tomorrow. The Altima is a popular three box in the Middle East and though its premature to speculate on its introduction outside America, we can ascertain that Nissan Middle East is watching the developments closely.

The 2013 Nissan Altima will be presented with a choice of two engines for the US market – a 2.5-litre four-cylinder with 180bhp and a 3.5-litre V6. Nissan has not discussed fuel economy figures but claims it is better than the newly launched BMW 328i in American testing standards.

The interiors are well appointed with the NASA-inspired ‘zero-gravity’ seats, which ‘reduce muscular and spinal loads and improve blood flow.’ Bluetooth is a standard feature while lane departure warning and blind spot assistance are optional. The car is fitted with a premium Bose sound system.

The 2013 Nissan Altima has a more sculpted bodywork which according to Nissan 'communicates forward motion and aerodynamics even when standing still.'

The dimensions of the new Altima are similar to the outgoing model. The wheelbase is same and the track is widened by 35mm.

Prices of the US-spec 2013 Altima begin from $21,500 (78,969 UAE Dirhams) and extend to $25,360 (93, 147 UAE Dirhams) for the larger V6-motored variant.
