oof welp see you next show.

So as you may have heard from the news, the Corona virus outbreak has led to the cancellation of the Geneva Auto Show.

Not really sure how this affects the forum version, but as it seems that most automakers are planning on premiering their cars online that may be a course of action you can choose to take. I would be perfectly fine if you want to continue to post the unveils designated for Geneva in this thread.

Revo Design and Bates Engineering

Announcement - Due to the outbreak of the Corona Virus and the cancelling of the Geneva Auto Show, Both Revo Design and Bates Engineering are not willing to put our employees in harms way, so we shall be announcing our cars online instead

In late 2019 the 60 year engineering firm called Bates Engineering was on the edge of bankruptcy and couldn’t find any investors to help finish its latest project. At the same time the tuning and bespoke design company called Revo Design was looking for help to design its first mass market car, but also a bigger development site. So Bates Engineering and Revo Design agreed to buy shares in each other to form an alliance. This is the public announcement of the merger and also the debut of 4 new cars from both manufacturers.

Revo Mirage

The Revo Mirage is the first mass market car to be produced by Revo Design and is built to take on the likes of the BMW 5 Series and Mercedes E-Class. The Mirage will come in three different trim levels SE, SE-4 and HE. Pricing will start from £35,600 and range to £47,800. More details shall be available at a later date, along with the announcement of two performance variants which are still currently in development.

Taimania & Blaire’s Mega Showcases have been moved to New York. See you then!



Returning to a sportive approach, like the latest models of the brand, the New Urban is more focused on the driving experience. According with the 85% of customers, they prefer a sporty and fun experience instead being only focused on the confort, like the current generation.

The new Montes modular platform (called LMP, or Longitudinal Modular Platform) is a completely new platform that it will be used on the next brand models with front longitudinal engine, and it could be made on AHS steel or aluminum. And also, is compatible for EV models. It features multilink on the rear, and McPherson with decoupled stub, to control perfectly all the movements, giving a precise, responsive and confortable behavior. And also, we reduced the weight between 100 and 200kg compared with the 6th-gen.

The engines were tweaked to improve the fuel efficiency, responsiveness, performance, as well emissions (all are euro 6d-temp compilant), and due to the SCHI (Super Controlled Homogeneous Injection) tech, it doesn’t needs FAP.

The completely new design shows a youthful, sporty and agile image, as well stylish and modern. We played with tension lines and tridimensional elements, like the composed taillights or grille mesh, and with textures, like the glossy black found on the rear diffuser.

oh my GOD this post aged HORRIBLY

Those would most likely be introduced at the New York Auto Show next month. As for the lesser versions, my ideal spec would be a Cosmos AWD manual with the 2.0L turbo four, in purple with double six-spoke wheels.

However, with its longitudinally mounted engine, the whole Urban range is built on a rear-drive platform, which should set it apart from the crowd. And surely there is room in the range for 3-door hatch, 4-door sedan, 2-door coupe and 5-door wagon variants - if the potential for more choices exists, why not offer them?

AL Autos Announcement

Due to the Geneva Motor Show being canceled, AL Autos will showcase the newly redesigned AL Autos Erucae during a public special event being held back in our main showroom stateside. The cars are currently en route back to the US (after the fiasco of trying to get a spot to ship them back) and are scheduled to arrive tomorrow, March 5, 2020. Once they arrive, we will be ready to present them. To compensate for this late reveal, we will also be showcasing the special limited production version of the Erucae. I hope you all will join us!

Reguarding the Geneva intervational Autoshow.

It is most unfortunate that the Geneva international Auto show has been cancelled due to what is quickly evolving into a global pandemic. Nonetheless, we carry on. You can find information about our new EV partnership with Rigore Automotive Here, and the flagship model of this partnership, The Interval, here. Where you can schedule a test drive today. We will have more to show as the year continues.

Great choice!

About the release of a 3-door hatch, that’s discarded currently, but we are thinking about a coupé. More info, soon.

And the same for the wagon variant.

A sedan is not expected, having the (recently restyled) T30.

BREMEN: Due to the unexpected cancellation of the Geneva International Motor Show (GIMS), the planned offcial new vehicle announcements of Ursula AG will be cancelled and all automobile reveals will be shown later in Ursula’s official website (or in IRL terms, this place).
See you in New York, stay safe and have a great day.
