Audi Reveals New TT At Geneva Motor Show

The edgier, lighter, more powerful third generation Audi TT and Audi TTS strut their stuff at their world premieres at the Geneva Motor Show.


Yet, the stupendous power of the Turbo S is jaw-droppingly massive. Like the C4, it is equipped with 4WD and inspires confidence even when you building us crazy speeds. Porsche's excellent 7-speed PDK dual-clutch gearbox is the sole transmission available on the Turbo and Turbo S. You could use the flappy paddles to switch gears, but we left the gearbox to its own devices and focused on coming back to the pits in one piece.

Porsches are meant to be driven hard. So that's exactly what we did when we got to Sepang for the Porsche Driving Experience 2014.


Like the previous model the full-sized MPV will come in two variants - the EX and the EXV. The EX is the 'base' model, although it already comes with quite a list of features and seats the most number of people (eight vs. seven in the EXV). Available as standard on both models are Honda's new 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, HondaLink navigation and of course, the 2.4-litre DOHC i-VTEC engine with Earth Dreams technology. The unit pumps out a healthy 172bhp and 225Nm and will return a fuel consumption figure of 12.7km/L.

Well, they may not be your average supercars, but they are all sporty enough to give any big-engined, bank-breaking engineering feats on four wheels quite a hard time on our roads.

Because what we have here are an extensive list of cars, introduced in 2013 itself, that we feel will never go out of style; those that will remain on our roads even in the distant future all thanks to their stylish exterior that will never, well, get out of style. However, as this is Burnpavement and we take performance seriously, we have picked a total of nine (yes nine, your eyes aren’t playing any tricks) different cars that drives admirably well AND looks oh-so-beautiful. So let’s not delay any further and let us introduce to you: The Fashionable Cars of 2013.

And I am not exaggerating. Really. Just how on earth did Audi manage to come up with this scheme? By planting a highly tuned 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder lump under the bonnet, and then pair it to a 6-speed S-tronic ‘box. The rest, as they would say, is history: 276 bhp at your disposal and then 380 Nm available from as low as 1,800 rpm. Jaw-dropping stuff.

As many enthusiasts would know, a JCW model is the result of an overall concept developed on the back of the brand’s many years of motor sport experience. The precise interplay of ultra high performance powertrain and chassis technology, with the car’s aerodynamically optimised exterior features ensures that the agile and surefooted handling - or also known as the 'go-kart feeling' - shines brightly in extremely sporty driving situations as well. The result is hardcore driving fun, taken into a new dimension by this new MINI John Cooper Works Concept.

With the three engineering priorities Intelligent Drive, Efficient Technology and Essence of Luxury, the new S-Class extends the boundaries of technology on many levels.


It's technology on wheels. Audi has always taken much pride in being technologically ahead of the competition. The A8 is proud to be one such example. As the first mass-market car with an aluminum chassis, all A8 models have utilised this light weight construction for years. Marketed as Audi Space Frame (ASF), 2013 marks the 20th anniversary of this technology. This, plus the fact that it features cylinder deactivation tech (as seen on Bentleys) and full LED lighting in and out of the car, sets it apart from its closest rival, the BMW 750i.
