Hyundai has adopted a European naming convention for all its future models. Following a similar route as many European manufacturers, Hyundai will drop the current naming convention for all future models (at least in Europe). Currently both Hyundai and sister company Kia, tend to name their vehicles after the cities in which they were manufacturers, such as the Kia Rio and Hyundai Santa Fe.Nontheless, this is the new Elantra Euro-Hatch. Whilst there is a good chance that it will be still called Elentra by the time it gets to Australia, in Europe, the German designed hatch will be badged as the Hyundai i30.

Much like all other Asian cars, the Hyundai i30 is styled in Europe. This one is drawn up in Hyundai Motor’s European Design & Technical Centre in Russelsheim, Germany.The Hyundai i30 measures at 4245mm long (260mm shorter and is 10mm narrower and lower than Elantra sedan) and 2650mm wide. Compared with the similar length Holden Astra hatch, i30 is 36mm longer in wheelbase, 20mm taller and 12mm wider.

Buyers in Europe get a choice of 1.4, 1.6 or 2.0 litre petrol engines — all twin-cam, 16-valve CVVTs and three common-rail turbo-diesel powerplants. Australian engines have not yet been finalized. Suspension in i30 is the fully independent configuration seen in Elantra sedan but tuned differently for Europe.

The i30 hatch is firmly in the Euro-hatch formula of long wheelbase, wide wheel stance and very short and high rear overhang, which keeps overall length sensibly and parkably short in the crush of the continental cities, but maximizes interior room and boot depth.

BMW’s niche-making X6 will become the car maker’s biggest and most powerful 4WD when it goes on sale in 2008, but it will also be less practical than either of its smaller siblings, the X3 and X5.

BMW has released the first official pictures and details for the production version of the X6 4WD four-door ‘coupe’ that it previewed in concept form at the 2007 Frankfurt motor show.

As expected, there are virtually no changes in the transition from the Frankfurt motor show concept to the real-world BMW X6 that goes on sale in Australia in July 2008 and, according to BMW, will create a brand new 4WD segment that appeals to performance-car enthusiasts.BWM finally showed off its two-mode hybrid system (the first BMW with two-mode hybrid system) at Frankfurt Motorshow, the idea behind this concept car is “merging the athletic aesthetics of a true sports car with the versatility of an SAV resulted in a new vehicle category that so far has not been realized” as stated on the BMW website. Quoted from Chris Bangle as Chief of Design for BMW Group about BMW concept x6 : “a good concept realizes itself in a short amount of time”. There is no official technical statement from BMW about this BMW X6, but the hybrid system expected to improve fuel efficiency by 20 percent. This car was only a concept till now, I believe this is going to be the basic of the next model BMW car.
