Mazda to bring back RX7
Posted By Kelly Ng | Date: 15 March 2010There's been rumours for a while now that Mazda will bring back the RX7. Mazda's design boss Ikuo Maeda has said "I do have a strong yearning to revive the RX-7 during my tenure," Maeda
told US website Automotive News in a recent interview. Maeda did make it clear that Mazda is not about to launch a high end sports car in the middle of a global economic crisis. "In order for that to happen" said Maeda, "we
need the US economy to come back, first and foremost".
Maeda's father was
also a Mazda stylist, and he created the original RX-7 back in the
1970s. So lets hope Maeda brings back he RX7!

Next evo to go electric!
Posted By Kelly Ng | Date: 09 February 2010The next Mitsubishi Evo XI is set to lose the turbo for electric power!
Motor Trend magazine US reported the story the Evo XI set to for release in 2013 will be a hybrid rather than solely electric and is suggested to have up to 350hp.
The idea behind the electric motor will provide power boost instead of of the current turbocharger, but will be smoother and more instant power which should in turn give more fuel ecconomy.
Technology derived from the PX-MiEV plug in hybrd concept showcased at Tokyos motor show last year- NA petrol engine boosted by a lithium ion battery fed electric motor. The EVO XI will run NZ 2.o litre petrol engine will run the rear wheels while the electric motor will drive the front, so essentially itll be still 4WD. Mitsi will aim for 4.5 sec to 100kms performance.
New techno parts include actie steering and roll control suspension.
