The
Marussia B2 is still a pre-production model and the design hasn’t been
finalized yet. The current status of the project hasn’t stopped the
only Russian supercar manufacturer from releasing an artist impression
and press rendering showing the new supercar.

2010 Citroen Metropolis Sports Car Concept
Citroën Metropolis will be on show in the French Pavilion at the Shanghai World Fair from 1st May to 31st October, 2010. Citroën has revealed the spectacular new Citroën Metropolis Concept
- a sleek and muscular concept car that pays homage to China's
extraordinary development. Created by Citroën's international design
team - based in Shanghai since 2008.
2010 Citroen Metropolis
Citroen
is one of the most creative and adventurous car makers in the world.
Just a quick look at some of their past concept, and production,
vehicles proves that. However for the Citroen Metropolis concept the
company have decided to keep things a little more grounded in reality.
It's still a fine looking machine, but it's not quite as crazy as some
of their recent stuff.
Citroën
Metropolis blends taut lines with smooth surfaces, evidenced
particularly at the front where the sculpted, incisive wings and
kite-shaped grille merge with the harmonious contours of the bonnet. The
streamlined headlamps have an imperious and steely look, giving Citroën
Metropolis a natural air of authority.
2010 AC Sports Car Cobra MK VI
The
2010 AC Cobra MK VI is the reincarnation of the AC Cobra, which is
arguably the greatest sports car icon. The new AC Cobra gets its design
cues from the older model but incorporates modern technology, taking the
AC Cobra to the twenty-first century. The 2010 AC Cobra MK VI has a
jig-welded round-tube space-frame chassis that is fully triangulated and
has a suspension that is derived from the race car.
2010 AC Cobra MK VI
The
2010 Cobra is powered by a Corvette V8 6.2-liter engine that has a
horsepower of 437 bhp and 647 bhp for the GT and GTS versions
respectively which enables to reach 60 mph within 3.3 seconds. It is
also fitted with 4-pot Porsche brake calipers with vented discs. The
2010 Cobra’s aluminum-hybrid body, which is handmade to ensure that it
endures forever, has a bigger air-conditioned cabin to guarantee comfort
for taller drivers. The interior of the 2010 AC Cobra MK VI is
outfitted in the top-quality leather hides and German carpets.
The
AC MkVI, a faithful recreation of the ultimate sports car icon - the AC
Cobra, is now being produced in Germany for sale in Europe. AC has
entered into a long term strategic alliance with Gullwing GmbH in Heyda,
Germany. The AC MkVI is being produced in a modern facility and AC is
extremely proud of the quality of the finished product which is due to
the skills of the craftsmen at the Heyda facility.
"AC
is one of the most admired and respected marques in the world," stated
Juergen Mohr, CEO of Gullwing GmbH. "Their sports cars ignited a passion
that still burns inside enthusiasts today. For over a century, the
company has built cars with superb engineering, old world craftsmanship
and classic designs. We feel extremely honoured that we can now be part
of the future of the brand."
Alan
Lubinsky added: "There are two major new features on the AC MkVI. We
are especially excited about the new aluminium-hybrid body construction
on the AC MkVI. This provides the AC MkVI with a traditional aluminium
finish on the bodyshell, together with a strong composite structure. In
addition to this, the AC MkVI will have as standard equipment a light
weight gullwing hardtop, with coupled to the standard air conditioning,
will provide drivers with total all weather motoring.
The
AC MkVI is an open-top sports car based on the design of the Le Mans
winning AC Cobra with many of the original car's characteristics while
incorporating modern technology. The cars are not imitations - they are
new generation of AC Cobra incorporating relevant advanced technology.
"Every year approximately 1,500 copies of the cars AC built in the 1960s
are sold in America," says Alan Lubinsky.
"Why
would anyone buy a replica when they can own an authentic AC roadster
that is lighter and better and has been engineered and built to such
demanding standards?" Weighing only about 1,025 kg, the lightweight AC
MkVI GTS sports car can hit 100 kph in approximately 3.3 seconds. "The
AC MkVI is wickedly addictive," says Gullwing's Juergen Mohr.
"One
drive in this scorchingly fast sports car creates an adrenalin rush
that will last a lifetime. The AC MkVI offers heritage, performance and
timeless styling that stirs the soul." The AC chassis has been at the
heart of some of the most legendary cars in history. Texan Carroll
Shelby imported a number of rolling chassis from AC in the 1960s to
build the legendary "Cobras" that dominated international sports car
racing.
The
Shelby American team inserted a performance tuned Ford V8 and gearbox
into a chassis and body supplied by AC for the North American market.
Since then AC has manufactured a car that has been imitated by numerous
companies. AC expects to appoint a distribution network in Europe in the
coming months to sell and maintain the AC MkVI.
