This is the new VW Routan:
Chrysler invented the Mini Van and still leads the market (all tough now they are in some trouble). VW used their poor judgement to try and crack this market at this hard times, but Chrysler or even Toyota are far away superior to any past Van VW has ever had on the market!!!!
The Germans from Volkswagen have unleashed their latest set of wheels— Golf GTD. This is without a doubt a car that will appeal immensely to those looking for the Volks GTI style clubbed with the economy and efficiency of a diesel engine inside. Shedding some of the speed of the GTI, the GTD is powered by a 2.0-liter, 170 hp turbo diesel engine with 258 lb-ft of torque and a fuel economy rating of 44 mpg. Racing from 0 to 62 mph in a leisurely 8.1 seconds, this is more about saving cash rather than chasing criminals. With a 6-speed manual gearbox, an optional 6-speed DSG, posh interiors styled in black and white and low carbon emissions, the GTI will appeal to the daily city commuter who looks for efficiency, economy and ergonomic design that fits into smaller parking spaces.

The revamped Toyota Crown Majesta has been announced for the Japanese market. The new version of the car has some real cool features both in terms of performance improvement and safety. Under the hood will be either a 4.3-litre V8 which is fitted to a four-wheel-drive system with a 6 Super ECT transmission or a 4.6-litre V8 with an 8-speed electronically-controlled gearbox for two wheel drive engines.
On the inside the Majesta comes loaded with HDD navigation system, Toyota sound system with 20 speakers, a camera that detects pedestrians in front of the car, pre-crash seatbacks system, supplemental restraint system and a total of 10 airbags for additional safety. The new Majesta will have a price tag ranging between ¥6,100,000 and ¥6,900,000 ($62,000 to $70,000) and seems to be a perfect balance between, style, performance and safety. [via nihoncar]

Electric seems to be the way forward with cars and Tesla has just announced that it will start production of their Tesla Model S by the third quarter of 2011. That is great news for auto enthusiasts who would prefer practicality and efficiency over sheer power and pace as the Model S is equipped with a battery pack made up of 8,000 cells, giving it a range of about 300 miles, top speed of 120 mph and 0-60 acceleration in 5.6 seconds. The car has plenty of room for people and for storage with the batteries housed on the floor and it can comfortably accommodate five adults and a couple of kids. With a drag coefficient of just 0.27 and weighing just 1735 Kg, Tesla has tried hard to increase its efficiency with better design and lighter frame. Set to be priced at $49,900, this is a great buy in any way you look at it! [via autoblog.com]

The BatSmart is apparently a cozy little stylish Batmobile that is made just for two people. But looking at the hot Cat woman (who unveiled it), we can’t be sure there’s room for two. Signed by George Barris and made by scissor door kit maker Vertical Doors, it is true to the original design of the Bat mobile in every aspect. Sure, the rear air filter jet engine outlet does not work, but when you are in the company of such sexy curves (meow), crime fighting sure can wait! We just hope that Batman and Robin don’t jump into it to create a Superhero version of Broke back Mountain! [via Jalopnik]

In addition to solar power, headlight bezels made from a material obtained from recycled plastic soft drink bottles and a biodegradable cover on the engine ad interiors, there is absolutely no doubt who Hyundai is targeting with this one.
