Dutch Super Bus Concept Capable of 155 mph: Looks like Ridley Scott’s Alien
This odd vehicle is a public transportation concept being developed by the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands, partly at the behest of the Dutch government.
alien-headhl.jpgThis highly streamlined Future Bus is aimed at providing convenient, and even personalized public transportation, at speeds that will rival Europe’s railway lines. The sleek profile and small frontal area of the bus concept are said to allow it to travel at up to 155 mph. One rather frightening drawback to the aggressive design however, is the uncanny resemblance it bears to the murderous extraterrestrials from Ridley Scott’s Alien movies.
At nearly 50 feet long, and 8 feet wide, the Future Bus should have a seating capacity of up to 50 passengers. Those passengers will be able to use the bus in a sort of a la carte way, most likely using mobile phones or web devices to help determine stops and pick-up points. Despite the revolutionary nature of the Future Bus, researchers are hoping to have a demonstration vehicle built sometime this year. Let’s just hope they find a way to keep its acid blood from dripping all over.

GM to Introduce 16 Hybrids by 2012
General Motors doesn’t want to miss the hype train. It too has now announced that it will have an entire fleet of hybrids. Ok, it didn’t. But, GM will have 16 hybrid models on the market by 2012, CEO Rick Wagoner told reporters at the Geneva Motor Show.
The models will be powered by two different hybrid systems. One is designed for the rear-wheel and all-wheel-drive vehicles (Chevy Tahoe). The other is for the front-wheel-drive vehicles (Saturn Vue).
Wagoner said that GM plans to introduce one hybrid model, on average, every four months until 2012. GM currently offers four hybrid models – the Chevy Tahoe, Chevy Malibu, Saturn Vue, and Saturn Aura.

Fiat To Build Alfas In China?
Will China soon have domestically-produced Alfa Romeos? That’s the story according to Ward’s Auto, which cites a “well-placed” source. Apparently, parent company Fiat SpA is almost ready to sign on the dotted line with Nanjing and Chery to assemble the Italian cars in the world’s fastest-growing automobile market.
Fiat is apparently hoping to have Chery assemble the cars, but it already has a joint-venture agreement with Nanjing, which is slowing negotiations. If the deal with Chery is to go through, Fiat will likely have to divest its 50-percent stake in the existing JV partnership with Nanjing, a move which could happen soon.
Fiat hopes that it can begin producing some 30,000-35,000 Chinese Alfas in 2009 (startin with its 159 sedan), with the eventual possibility of exporting to other markets, including Mother Italy.
