Carlsson presents an own developed automobile at this year’s Geneva Motor Show – the Carlsson C25 Limited Super-GT. The concept of this Super-GT is based on the vision of combining maximum driving performance with an entirely new design and high exclusiveness. The result is a breathtaking and beautiful sports coupĂ© with 753 hp in a limited edition of only 25 cars world-wide.
The performance data of the six litre V12 Bi-Turbo is impressive. The high-performance aggregate with a motor management optimisation patented by Carlsson renders 753 hp (554 kW) and allows fast acceleration as well as smooth travels at lower speeds. Also responsible for the perfect performance evolvement is the elaborately developed stainless steel exhaust system with ends in four edgy pipes at the back. The power catapults the C25 with a torque of 1320 Newton metres at 3750 r.p.m. which is electronically limited to 1,150 Newton metres from 0 to 100 km/h in only 3.7 seconds and achieves a maximum speed of 352 km/h.
The Carlsson C25 Super-GT Concept also comes with an ultra-light and forged wheels 1/10 UL in the dimensions 9,5×20 and 12×20 inches have been especially designed for the C25 and are equipped with high performance tyres measuring 265/30 at the front and 325/25 at the rear live axle.

Keating TKR
- Keating has revealed the first image of the TKR supercar, a model that was claimed to become the fastest production car. The Keating TKR supercar is powered by a 7.0-litre, 2,000-horsepower V8 engine and which has a top speed of 416km/h, is now on display at this year’s MPH Show in the UK. The Keating TKR recently beat the Shelby Aero TT’s top speed record at the Salt Lake Flats in California, in the US.
‘The Keating TKR realises our ambition to take on the world’s finest supercars and win. This car rivals them all for looks, handling, performance and exclusivity. And best of all, it’s British,’ says Tony Keating, founder of Keating Supercars.
The company has also announced that the Keating TKR will have to do it again to get into the Guinness Book of World Records.
Chevrolet Caprice Police Car 2011
- GM will allow U.S. police departments to order a cop-spec Chevrolet Caprice beginning next year, with the first cruisers hitting the road in 2011. The Caprice is built on the Holden platform used for the G8 and which also underpins the new Camaro. Holden calls the car Statesman in Australia, while it is rebadged as a Chevy Caprice for sale in the Middle East.
At 118.5 inches, the Caprice rides on the longest wheelbase of any car using GM’s global rear-drive platform; the G8 was nearly four inches shorter between its wheels. Most of that room is accounted for in the larger back seat—GM claims a four-inch advantage in rear legroom over the Ford Crown Victoria
SEAT Ibiza IBZ Concept
- The SEAT Ibiza IBZ concept was unveiled today ahead of its Frankfurt Motor Show debut previewing the future SEAT Ibiza wagon. This is the Sear Ibz concept car, which the company says previews "a new, family-sized version of the Ibiza that will make its debut in showrooms across Europe towards the middle of next year".
- The SEAT Ibiza IBZ has the same height and width as a standard Ibiza, but it has 4.22 meters in length. One of the main distinctive features of the SEAT Ibiza IBZ is the large boot which has a capacity of 410 liters. This can be increased even further as the rear seats of the SEAT Ibiza IBZ can be folded.
- Some of the features of the SEAT Ibiza IBZ include LED headlights, 19-inch alloy wheels, Leon-inspired rear passenger door handles and a number of new design features.
