Lagonda All-Terrain Concept Coming To Geneva As Brand’s First Model


Aston Martin‘s Lagonda brand will unveil an all-new concept at March’s Geneva Motor Show dubbed the All-Terrain Concept.

The vehicle’s premiere will come exactly 12 months after the launch of the Lagonda Vision Concept and according to Aston Martin, the All-Terrain Concept will be the first model put into production by the relaunched Lagonda brand. It will launch as a 2021 model.

A single teaser image of the Lagonda All-Terrain Concept has been released. The image shows the vehicle with a wide stance and a brushed chrome element that stretches from the outer edges of the headlights into the center of the car’s front fascia where a traditional grille would usually be found. The concept also uses small cameras rather than traditional wing mirrors.

While the Lagonda All-Terrain Concept will be the most important Aston Martin model present at the Geneva Motor Show, it won’t be the only one. The British car manufacturer will also display a new Vantage, DB11 AMR, and DBS Superleggera at the event.

The Vantage is shaping up to be particularly eye-catching due to its Cosmos Orange paint from Q by Aston Martin as well as a selection of carbon fiber detailing and orange graphics across the exterior and interior. As for the DBS Superleggera set to be showcased, it will be painted in Numinous Pearl and be outfitted with the Q Collection Black Tinted Carbon Body Pack, Satin Black and Satin Bronze 21-inch forged wheels, and smoked taillights.

“The ways in which automotive brands reveal new product has changed beyond recognition in recent years, but there’s still something compelling about the unique atmosphere of a great motor show,” Aston Martin Lagonda president and chief executive Andy Palmer said.

“The Lagonda All-Terrain Concept offers explicit clues regarding what will be the first Lagonda model to enter production, and further demonstrates how Lagonda’s zero emission powertrain enables us to create spectacular cars that will radically redefine their sectors of the market. I’m expecting the Aston Martin Lagonda stand to be busier than ever, and very much look forward to seeing the crowd’s reaction first-hand”.

Limited Edition Ford GT 'Competition Series' Is All About The Track

Image
Ford's new GT Competition Series was built with weight-saving in mind, but also with an improved center of gravity for better road-holding. Among its features, you'll notice the lightweight carbon fiber racing stripes, A-Pillars and side mirrors, as well as the unique race-inspired Perspex acrylic engine hatch with integrated venting. Thanks to the manual latch and the carbon fiber prop rod, weight near the roof has been reduced, though Ford engineers went even further in their quest to make the car lighter, by making the bulkhead Gorilla Glass behind the driver about half as thick (and as light) as on other models. "The Ford GT has racing in its blood," said Ford exec Raj Nair, while adding that the Competition Series "was developed with the most hardcore track enthusiasts in mind, providing a tailored set of lightweight features and unique livery to match." There are also plenty of remaining performance features from the production car, such as

Alpine A110 Hits Geneva With Pure, Legende And GT4 Versions

Image
Renault’s reborn Alpine brand has been getting rave reviews for its new A110 and now, as promised, it’s revealed new versions of its coupe at the Geneva Motor Show. Following the success of the sold-out Premiere Edition, the A110 will now be offered in Pure and Legende trims. The A110 Pure is targeted at driving enthusiasts. It features one-piece Sabelt sports seats that weigh barely more than 13 kilograms (28.6 pounds) each and, combined with other weight-saving measures, helps keep the curb weight below 1,100 kg ( 2,425 lbs). It’s not entirely stripped out, though, and still comes with features like air-conditioning and satellite navigation. Buyers can also add upgraded Brembo brakes and an adaptive exhaust system and can upgrade to the adjustable comfort seats. Those come standard on the Legende model, which is geared more towards every day driving and grand touring and comes with leather upholstery. Customers can also choose between two Focal sound systems and two wheel

Volkswagen T-Roc Cabriolet Is A Crossover For Droptop Lovers

Image
Droptop crossovers have always been rather odd and the T-Roc Cabriolet is no different. It will be the only convertible Volkswagen on sale for the foreseeable future and will celebrate its public debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September. Rather than simply removing the roof of the standard T-Roc, Volkswagen has drastically altered the vehicle’s structure and body. In fact, its wheelbase is 37 mm longer than the standard T-Roc while its overall length is up by 34 mm. In addition, the Volkswagen T-Roc Cabriolet features structural strengthening in the underbody, side panels, cross members, doors, and windscreen frame to make up for the lack of a roof. The folding fabric roof developed by Volkswagen retracts in just nine seconds at speeds of up to 19 mph (30.5 km/h) and is similar in operation to the roof of the outgoing Golf Cabriolet. The presence of the soft top reduces trunk space by 161 liters down from the 284 liters of the run-of-the-mill T-Roc. We don’t think bu
