Peugeot 908 RC

The Peugeot 908 RC was a concept was first seen at the 2006 Paris Motor Show.
The luxurious 2+2 Peugeot 908 RC is powered by a 5.5 litre twin turboV12 developing 700 horsepower and 885 lb/ft of torque. The same engine was used in Peugeot's 908 race car for the le Mans 24 hour race in 2007.
Styling of the 908 RC concept is not dissimilar to the Peugeot 907supercar concept of late 2004. Although the new car has a more brutal looking front end when compared to the 907's leering grin.
The 20" front wheels and 21" rear wheels help accentuate the designers goal to immitate the shape of a big cat, from the nose at the front, to the tip of the rear lights.
Inside the Peugeot 908 RC concept all comfort systems including radio, MP3 player, satellite navigation, four-zone air conditioning, etc can be controlled via a large touch screen, or MMI (Man/Machine Interface) as Peugeot calls it. The MMI is also accessible to the 908 RC's rear passengers, thanks to a multimedia screen positioned on the centre console separating the two rear seats.

McLaren P2 by Rakesh

The McLaren P2 is a concept created by Rakesh Bag , a Student of The Aditya Birla Public School , Veraval , Gujarat from INDIA The styling of the McLaren P2 is more attractive and less clinical than the McLaren P1 , but you can bet your entire worldly possessions on the fact every last millimetre of the bodywork has been extensivley analysed in the windtunnel. The front is unique and original, the way lower part of the bumper flows back into the ‘C’ shaped headlights is inspired. And the P2’s rear end has got to be one of the best in the business. Stunning. “the McLaren P1 and P2 will be the result of 50 years of racing and road car heritage. Twenty years ago we raised the supercar performance bar with the McLaren F1 and our goal with the McLaren P1 and P2 is to redefine it once again.” “Our aim is not necessarily to be the fastest in absolute top speed but to be the quickest and most rewarding series production road car on a circuit,” adds McLaren Automotive Managing Director Anton...

Lamborghini Diamante

Thomas Granjard's Final year degree project at Coventry University Lamborghini Diamante University project (not developed with Lamborghini) Trailer We're in the year 2023. Oil is getting depleted on our planet. However, mobility will continue to exist, it needs to. Such mobility not only includes boring electric vehicles for the city but also supersportcars with alternative drive systems. Flat, fast, extreme – cars that still set everyone in the mood for mobility without having a bad conscience – such as the eco-friendly Diamante Concept Car. This concept combines exclusivity and extremes in one single supersportcar. The name says it all. The most valuable mineral in the world stands for luxury, but also for naturalness, pureness, hardness and beauty – exactly as the dream car with the white collar. Its extremely flat silhouette is flanked by sharply outlined edges, the curved surface appears to be unpolished, rough, precious. The aerodynamic system uses movable wings to ...

Ferrari FF

A new chapter in Ferrari’s rich history begins with this, the FF. The designation is simply shorthand for ‘Ferrari Four’, and not only is it a two-door 'shooting brake' estate, but for the first time ever a Ferrari has four-wheel drive capability. This new Ferrari FF sounds intriguing. Does it have conventional 4wd system? No. Instead the FF has a two-speed ‘box (plus reverse) mounted ahead of the engine that takes its drive directly from the crank. The ‘box drives the front wheels via wet clutches that can adjust the torque going to each front wheel independently (essentially by varying degrees of slip). No transfer diff, no connection to the rear wheels. The advantages are light weight, fast response time and, crucially, the ability to pre-empt wheelspin and start to help the rear tyres before they go beyond the limit of grip and traction. And in perfect conditions the FF should remain completely rear-driven to retain that agility so central to the mode...
