Rear end of the Flug A-18 concept is somewhat familiar 
There is also a slight resemblance between the Tifón GS and the car I plan to reveal, which I think means some might actually guess what it is I’m going to reveal!
The first unveiling for Solo Motors Co. is no big secret: the 2020 Wolf BM Eco Concept. As a running prototype, it was designed to see how much can be done in terms of fuel economy for a gasoline-only engine without compromising the standard midsize (D segment) sedan. This running concept was made for an efficiency design competition, and now that it’s passed the deadline, it’s time for the technical specs to be unveiled.
Using a 1.0L turbocharged I4 producing 105 hp and 111 ft-lb of torque (150.5 Nm). It has a combined cycle of 4.2l/100 km (55.4 mpg), a rating of 16.0 for emissions, uses a 7 speed sequential gearbox and performs the 0-100 km/h in 10.3 seconds to go to a top speed of 220.2 km/h. The body and frame are all aluminium for weight reduction, the brake discs are vented for hte lower weight, and a lot of other design decisions were made to reduce weight in order to improve efficiency. Ultimately, it comes in at only 1328.8 kg. It’s a fastback design with a liftback, rear suicide doors, and seats 5 in a standard interior with advanced safety features. It’s a car that could be produced today, but some of the technologies are beyond the scope of what is affordable in the present. If we produce this in 2020, we estimate the MSRP to be around $28,700.
Effectively, we’re showcasing a real car of the future, not some hypothetical concept only designed for the auto show circuit. This is a preview of our theme for Geneva 2016.
[size=180]J.S.C Automobili Celebrating Company 70th Anniversary[/size]
Upon entering the J.S.C display, you will immediately see a video loop projected on the huge back wall. It’s a 1995 J.S.C Quattrocorsa Stradale being put through its paces on Some beautiful Tuscany country roads:
[size=85]IMAGE CREDITS: Squidhead (thanks mate)[/size]
Video includes some press quote text inserts from various road tests of the Quattrocorsa:
[size=90]*“Cruising gently through a sleepy mountain village in Grazzo, I can’t help but wonder how a supercar can be so friendly to drive. The active suspension eats potholes and cracks with ease and the engine is just so quiet! Village is left behind and I floor the throttle. The punch is SAVAGE once you hit 4000 rpm. Twin turbos shrieking, exhaust rumbling and echoing from mountain sides, I am sling-shot towards the horizon in one aggressive act of brutal acceleration. You really have to be careful with the throttle; as docile as the 4.25-litre eight is when cruising, when the boost comes in you better be prepared.” *
-Andrew Frankel, Autocar Magazine 1995[/size]
[size=90]“It is raining at Imola. It’s 8 am and I’m cosily tugged inside the plush Quattrocorsa cockpit. I can see a far flash of a lightning and my palms are wet as I drive off the pits and onto the main straight. There it strikes me: if Porsche were Italian, this is the car they’d make. Indeed, it’s like a Turinese 959. All the sophistication and luxury, all the feral acceleration. I’ve finally come up with a way to categorize the Quattrocorsa. Soon enough I am woken up from my thoughts as the first corner draws near. My heart jumps as there is an unexpected pool of water right on the curb! Even without glancing at the speedo, I simply know the speed is too much. ABS jerking the brake pedal I slide onto the grass all four wheels spinning as I try to pull the car straight. That was too close. Then on the following lap I find just how delicately balanced the Quattrocorsa really is. I can powerslide my way through shorter bends and there’s always enough pull from the race-derived V8 that I hardly lose any speed. It’s like magic when you connect two corners in one, minutely controllable slide.”
-Richard Meaden, Performance Car Magazine 1996[/size]
The first display from J.S.C features different automobiles from their 70-year history.

[size=150]INTRODUCING SCHELETRO 2020 CONCEPT[/size]
Today J.S.C is unveiling their latest development prototype. The headline is “Sports car of the future”.
The “Scheletro” features an experimental composite “skeleton” frame that is designed to replace traditional unibody construction.
The frame consists of three separate parts front, mid and rear so different body styles can be created without changing the complete frame.
To portray the new technology, parts of the skeleton frame are visible on the outside of today’s prototype. In addition to load bearing capacity,
the frame is also designed for ultimate crash protection featuring semi-sandwhich crumple zones front and rear. Same composite material is
also used on the wheels which feature a retro “turbine” design in celebration of J.S.C’s legendary sports cars from the '80s and '90s.
Additionally, a new family of ultra efficient 4-cylinder engines is under development. In the prototype there is a 1.6-litre 225 hp unit propelling
the lightweight sports car to 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds and onto 264 km/h top speed while only spending 4.5 liters per 100 km on average.
[size=150]2016 BRUTALE?[/size]
This venom green car was briefly shown on the J.S.C display. After only 2 hours, it was taken away again.
No info whatsoever, but there was a small plaque reading “Brutale”. Hmmm…
Press had already been sent the famous postcard, but it would still be more than two weeks before the official launch at Turin.

At the Diamond Automotive stand, the Emerald Gold is officially unveiled in Europe, which is expected to be one of the big markets for it.
This is not the last of the Emerald here at Geneva. Diamond has something else in store…
Also to be unveiled is the car that was teased before the show… The Amethyst Concept. It’s a preview of the next generation of the Amethyst four-door coupe following the new design language introduced by the Emerald. Originally introduced in 1995, the Amethyst was the entry-level Diamond and using the only V6 since the brand revival. The current 3rd generation adopted a 4-door coupe design and still uses the V6 on its more affordable variants, while the Gold and Titanium models use a V8. This concept previews the Gold trim, with a handmade interior and 4.1L V8. Don’t expect the suicide doors to make it to production, but we promise the design will remain true to the concept while this 4.1L variant of the 4.5L V8 designed for the new Emerald will be found in the production car.
@Squidhead, the Flug One-140 seems to be more akin to a go-kart than a city car - 286kg?! And @Starfish94, the HCC looks so smart and astute. Fantastic job on the looks there.
And now, onto what Erin have brought along…

[size=200]Erin Motor Company[/size] - Geneva International Motor Show 2016
Welcome to the Erin stand at the Geneva Motor Show. This year, Erin is bringing one of its biggest line ups to a car show ever, featuring two major new vehicles plus much more.
We shall tour the complete stand in this post. Follow the links for more information, including full stats and more photographs.
We start at the front of the display, showing our latest consumer models.
i1304.photobucket.com/albums/s527/Mackiatoe/idea%201_zpshm6vrivk.jpg
*[size=90]From left to right: Merna (Mk 8)[/size], Scarlet (Mk 4), Tauga SB-X, Berlose (Mk 5)
*
Seen here are two models that were on display at the Chicago Auto Show, the facelifted Merna and Berlose. These are two of our best selling models, and the new designs were received well at Chicago.
However, the focus here is on the cars in the centre of the display, the new Tauga SB-X and Scarlet Mk 4.
[size=165]2016 Erin Scarlet (Mk 4)[/size]
From 1986 to 2002, the Scarlet was one of Erin’s most prestigious and successful models, defining the sports car market during its production run. However, when the Mk 3 was discontinued, it was left without a replacement.
That is until now. The Scarlet is back, and better than ever before; faster, better looking and much cheaper than equivalent sports cars.
[size=150]Price: £82,999[/size][size=65](Price is for ‘X’ trim version, which is shown in all following photos)[/size]

Full stats can be found here.
[size=165]2016 Erin Tauga SB-X[/size]
The Tauga is our compact executive saloon, and since the Mk 3 was released in 2015, an estate version has been needed. The wait is now over with the new Tauga SB, with prices varying from £1800 to £2500 more than equivalent standard models.
And to welcome the SB to our line-up, we’ve given it to our in-house tuning company The X Department.
[size=150]Price: £58,695[/size]

We now move on to the ErinSport display, our motorsports division. ErinSport recently revealed the livery for the upcoming Automation Grand Prix Series, which can be seen on the screen in the background.

[size=90]From left to right: ErinSport GPP16 T1, Scarlet GT1 Concept, ErinSport CRP-4B 833[/size]
On display is a bit of history, ErinSport’s CRP-4B 833, that competed in a variety of Group C competitions in 1988. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the ‘CRP-4X’ platform, the most successful platform that ErinSport’s Group C development programme came up with.
That, however, is all in the past. Next to it is something for the future, the Scarlet GT1 Concept. Details about this are being kept secret; ErinSport were given access to the pre-production Scarlet chassis about 4 months ago, and have been working on a racing variant. This here is the first result of this development project, and its name is believed to suggest what sort of competitions its aimed at racing in cough AMWEC 2016 cough.
Some more publicity photos are shown below:

“That’s about 150 more than the supercharged 6.2-liter LT4 V8 found in the Corvette Z06, and the same for the 8.4-liter V10 found in the dodge viper. Which amounts to more than 110 horsepower per liter, naturally aspirated.”
“What you end up with is a car that, despite weighing around 1,700kg, and screaming like a olden days Ferrari, manages a fuel consumption around 12l/100km combined city and highway, and can tackle the airfield track in the same time as a Gumpert Apollo. Nevermind the fact that this LXi model is fitted with the highest level options in both interior trim, and creature comfort equipment. Power steering, electronic stability, launch control, traction control. You’ll want to hurry though, because the LXi Prestige will be limited to 2,000 units.”
“Of course, the non-limited edition models will be full-time production cars. So you don’t have to stomach that 92-grand price tag just to have your own Calavante. With V8 and V6 models as well, it’ll be a little bit easier to get one for a reasonable price than you might think.”
*More to be released as the Auto Show goes on, including more angles and different trims of the Calavante!
Holy, this Geneva motor show has maginificent cars!!
Now ManHell’s zone.

At the Kraft Haus Technik display, CEO Gerhard Wagner has presented the road going versions of Mistral.
"We hear a lot of numbers being thrown around, 600 horsepower, 800 horsepower, 1000 horsepower. We hear them so much that they have lost all their weight and meaning. What we wanted to do is go back to the roots of speed, to set an example. So the new big number is 400. The Mistral RS400 is powered by a 3.2 liter JSC bespoke v6 unit, producing 400 horsepower, while weighing in at exactly 800 kilograms. We have achieved this number by digging deep into our motorsport experienc and bringing it to the streets. That’s right, the RS400 is completely street legal, even though it is better suited for the track. This new approach has enabled us to create a car that accelerates to 100kph in 2.8 seconds, and is able to pull 1.55g through a corner thanks to it’s aerodynamics. The top speed is 290kph, but we have not yet found a track where you would need more than that.
The less extreme versions will be available, including an entry level S350 and a lightweight RS350, which will have the option of in car entertainment and luxury interiors, losing however the carbon ceramic brakes and a straight cut geared sequential gearbox, to keep the price down.
The S350 and RS350 will be available to the public for a price of $105,000, with the RS400 version available at $150,000"
On a side note : well isn’t this lovely, so many cool presentations in here!

Diamond Automotive has another unveiling for today…
Where the Emerald Gold is a luxury cruiser of a supercar, it has an evil twin. Presenting the 2016 Diamond Emerald Titanium…
Using the same 4.5L Turbocharged V8 from the standard Emerald, this one has been tuned for performance and performance only. Producing 1001 hp and 738 ft-lb of torque (1000.6 Nm), it revs up to 7400 RPM. The top speed is 380 km/h, and 0-100 km/h is done in 2.7 seconds. The quarter mile takes 9.9 seconds and it laps the Airfield in 1:11.03 minutes while the Green Hell is done in 7:14.3 minutes.
The hand-made interior has been stripped out for a lightweight sport interior and advanced safety changed for lighter standard safety, but we kept the luxury infotainment system. Of course the straight-through exhausts have been tuned for the optimal engine note, so there is no need for music from the stereo with the finest music coming from behind the seats.
Visually, we’ve made some changes. Additional ventilation was added, a lot of the chromework has been replaced with carbon fibre, the dual exhaust is now a quad exhaust, and the active wing stands out from the rear of the car.
And for only $236,400, the Emerald Titanium will be available at the same time as the Gold.
Maybe the least exciting but most practical revealing of the Geneva Auto Show. The all new Cervus 600 Tourismo…
[size=150]Overview[/size]
With its Innovations the 600 sets also as Tourismo new standards in terms of technology, comfort and driving pleasure in its class and proves the perfection we preach.
[size=150]Design [/size]
Just like on the sedan, the unique Cervus design DNA can also be seen on the new 600 Tourismo. With its wide grill it looks sporty but not intrusive and achieves a fine balance between the looks of a sports car and an executive sedan, while offering the huge boot space of a Wagon.
[size=150]Performance[/size]
The 600 Tourismo is available with a 2.4L Turbo I4 with 240 hp and a 3.6L Twin Turbo V6 with 340 hp. On both models are the intelligent ‘i4’ AWD and the 7-speed DCT equipped as standard.

Wow. You guys do not disappoint. This is an excellent array of vehicles!
You say it’s not exciting, but I happen to be digging that 600 Tourismo more than any of the “Flashy” cars in the thread so far. It’s very much sort of the kind of car you could feasibly put up with on a regular basis. Really the only fault with it is that, if I told someone the price tag, I wouldn’t want to pop the hood and have a four-banger under there. Just seems a bit meek for the 50+ Grand range. The 3.6-liter offering though… That’s better.
Thank you for the good feedback! I thought the 600 would be overshadowed by all the Super- and Hypercars here. 
Concerning its price tag, the 600 Tourismo does not seem to be that overpriced any more, if you compare it with an E-class Wagon in the US.

YOU DIDNT SEE ANYTHING
At the Vyctor stand, the new sedan version of the 350 is launched, along with the Inuvik 4x4, which slots above the Nunavut as a body-on-frame V8 SUV, rather than the unibody V6 Nunavut.
The 350 Sedan also features a brand new version of the A-Series 4 cylinder, displacing 1300 cc (Or 1.3 litres). This engine makes the new 350 rather fuel efficient, compared to other cars in the lineup.
Also at the Vyctor stand, are three classic cars from Vyctor’s past. Firstly the 1948 Seven.
Then there’s the 1948 Special
And finally, the ill-fated 1975 Princess, with it’s innovative gas suspension and tendency to rust straight out of the dealer. (The game glitched slightly with the Princess, so the stats aren’t visible. I’m just gonna paraphrase, they’re not very good.)
Also also at the Vyctor stand, three cars are under cloaks. Two are about the same size, small-ish, almost sports car like in profile. The other one is about the size of a midsize sedan.
That’s so damn unfair, rejigging the history to make Kelpie look derivative 
That said hot damn the cars here all look so good. I’m going to have to bring my A game to even keep up!
Solo Motors Co. would finally like to unveil the Eco range. The design direction for these is sleek simplicity, with smooth bodywork and narrow LED lights. The ultra efficient engines also require very little ventilation, allowing for such smooth designs.
First is the newly redesigned 2016 Solo Eco, replacing the aging 2007 model. It’s powered by a new 700cc I4 producing 67.8 hp and 48.8 ft-lb of torque (66.2 Nm). It’s not a performance car, but it does achieve 3.8L/100 km.
Next is the new 2016 Solo Eco City, a microcar using the same 700cc I4 as the standard eco. Its smaller size allows for even better fuel economy, at 3.5L/100 km, and for the ultimate practicality in the crowded urban environment.
The 2016 Solo Eco BM will be available from $14,410 and the 2016 Solo Eco City BM from $12,650.
With the Homologation Process for the 2016 Automation Rally Championship nearing its end, The Guardian Auto Group has decided to release the first images of it’s new Rally Car, Known as the Vibora C-180 ARC.
With a 4.2L V6 engine being powered only by Natural Air, over compressed induction air, the C-180, based off of the yet to be shown C-140 Chassis Family, is a competent competitor. Coming from yet another new GAG company, VIBORA AC, the C-180 is a new breed of Sedan Rally Cars. GAG hopes to be successful in its endevours in the 2016 ARC.
Only one image is shown, as the car is not here in person.
When the 2015 AMWEC Series had come to an end, and GAG had purchased Fox Manor Automotive, it Collected the three “Failed” AMWEC Vehicles, and scrapped them.
GAG, learning from the mistakes of Fox Manor, Decided to put together a “Test Bed” for the 2016 AMWEC, using the 2015 AP1 Rule set, and Created the I.Y.F.F.E. Test Prototype, Using an entirely new and custom V12 engine and Pushrod suspension.
This is what CEO James Nedle had to say about the I.Y.F.F.E. Concept:
“The Body is not what is being used, we have already made something we hope to use. What we need to work on from here is not just making the car look better, but we need to make it more driveable, and make the engine smoother. Even without the Turbos, it still has a sharp kick to it. That was an issue the old [Fox Manor Automotive] cars had, was the stupid Turbo Lag. We are here to place better than the old FM cars, they finished last, killed their image, and killed the company. We will do better than that!”
The Newest Denki Hogo-Sha Concept is here, The 2017 DHS Apollo Eco Concept. With a Somewhat substandard 12.28km/L and an emissions rating of 51.9, this 1600kg Wagon is a new Step forward for DHS. However, this Vehicle is fitted with a New Hybrid System, allowing a much higher 30.62km/L. This car may not be going into production any time soon, but its hybrid systems may find their way into other GAG vehicles.
This Hybrid System is around 5 years of testing and design work with companies such as Toyota, Saminda, Honda, and FIAT-Chrysler. We believe that the Apollo is the most beautiful car ever made from GAG.
The Next set of GAG announcements should be soon
~Vri and the GAG team.
When Mr. Montuzo and his motley crew of boffins dreamed up the idea of creating a race-car for the road, it was littered with problems that made it nigh-impossible to accomplish such a task. Noise restrictions, for example - when the first prototype was tested using an app on a fellow employee’s phone, it rocketed off the scale, peaking at 130dB - the same as a jackhammer. It was so loud that it caused Mr. Montuzo (who was driving behind the car at the time) to lose hearing in his right ear for a good hour. Still, the build team soldiered on, meticulously critiquing every detail to ensure the most breathtaking experience… quite literally.
The amount of G-forces that you are subjected to is simply mind-boggling. While operating the Vortex at full power, you are subjected to almost 2G in the corners. This, combined with the pivoting shark-fin at the back of the car, the super-wide DOT-grade grippy tyres and a choice of either a 2 litre inline 4, a 3 litre V6 or a massive 5 litre V8 powering it, means that it can scream like a banshee around the Airfield Track in a minimum of 1:07 seconds - a whole second faster than a Pagani Zonda R, which isn’t even road legal.
The gap between other cars gets exponentially larger as the track gets longer. For example, the Vortex’s time around Green Hell was a blitzing 6:50 seconds - a good 10 seconds faster than an Aventador SV, and 7 seconds faster than the 918 Spyder Weissach. However, for all this performance and (lack of) good looks comes at a price. When it is put on the market in 2020, it will cost a minimum of 3/4 of a million pounds - 750 grand. That’s a lot of moolah for a car without windscreen wipers. Or a passenger seat. Or any way to open the windows. 
However, it does come equipped with a special dial on the center console that can change the boost provided by the gigantic turbos that are powering the car. Using this, you can change the horsepower from anywhere between (on the top-of-the-rage SVX model) a mild 200bhp to well over 1,000bhp. The actual figure was so large that the dyno that was measuring the car broke. And caught fire.
Also, buyers of the Vortex 6/4 are eligible (and encouraged) to meet up at Mr. Montuzo’s 15 square-hectare testing facility (posting soon) for once-a-month track days. Said complex is composed of a large cone gymkhana for proving driving skills, a 6 kilometre race track, several condition courses (a heated room to test the driver’s nerve, a cooled room for ice-handling, etc.) and, the pièce de résistance, a 30 kilometre oval circuit to test the top speed. Yes, 750 grand is a lot, but then again, you’re getting a reasonable amount of value for your money. Think about it.

[size=150]American Eagle Automotive - Small Booth - Geneva[/size]
After years of quiet absence from the automotive world, American Eagle Automotive has re-surfaced at the Geneva International Automotive Show!
And they have been busy.
Unveiled today was their latest concept car, er, wagon… I think. The “Power Wagon”. Still wearing its in-house code name for now, AEA has shown the world they are back on their feet! They have downsized their factories to a “small” size as part of a grand plan to keep quality high. (AEA will not repeat their previous mistake.) And to show the world that American Eagle Automotive means business, they’re showing off this concept vehicle! The “Power Wagon” is reported to be targeting the Muscle Premium market and the Sport market in one fellow swoop. Initial reports show a high positive response to the muscle car, er… wagon, as the reported possible cost of the “Power Wagon” hovers around 60 to $70,000 [Automation Dollars], which is well within reason for the markets targeted. The specs have been posted on the plaque accompanying the concept vehicle, and by golly it is American with the 435ci V8! That’s over 7.0L of modern OHV design! One thing to note: the 11mpg rating is misleading as the particular engine in this concept car is a specially tuned early race version of the Nevada family of engines.
[size=150]1955 Eagle TR[/size]
And rounding out the American Eagle Automotive booth is the historic track-marketed car that got AEA off their feet! This is the 1955 Eagle TR!
