The public debut will happen at the Pebble Beach Concept Lawn over the course of the weekend

The car was created as a response to requests from buyers. They wanted the road legal McLaren P1 to have a track focused edition. This new McLaren model will deliver even greater levels of performance, grip, aerodynamics and downforce than the road car

The car will include big range of technology features and will be driven by a powertrain that is promised to produce an intended power output of 1,000 PS (986 hp). Furthermore, the car will run on race-proven slick tyres and will feature more aggressive and distinctive styling

McLaren P1 GTR will go into production in June 2015. This will mark the completion of the 375th and final example of the road-legal car, and two decades from the famous 24 Hours of Le Mans win by the legendary McLaren F1 GTR

2018 Audi A9

2018 Audi A9 

The new Audi A9 which is coming in 2018 is planned to be the most luxurious and at the same time the most expensive model that the company has ever created. The concept is designed by Spanish designer – Daniel Garcia. It is going to be something you’ve never seen before and it will take the game to a completely new level.

The model will follow the basic lines of the current Audi Sportback, but at the same time it will use the modular building block platform (MSB) used in models of Bentley, Lamborghini and Porsche in a way the audience has never expected.

The A9 is equipped with a one-piece roof and windscreen, both made of nanotechnology materials creating the typical bold and innovatory outlook of the series. We are expecting professional details like original leather seats, wooden insertions and a brand new upgraded technology. The exterior and interior are described as a masterpiece of the modern age.

The driver will be able to change the opacity and the color of the vehicle with a single push of a button thanks to the nanotechnology embraced in the new A9. As you may already suggested it will be more than well equipped with the latest gadgets, high quality materials and perhaps an internal-combustion engine accompanied with four electric motors.

The new Audi offspring will be a bit naughtier by using a 3.0-liter TFSI engine and a V8 engine with a full power output of 500 horsepower. An option with a hybrid powertrain will be available as well. It will consist of a gasoline engine and an electric motor generating around 500 horsepower.

There are rumors that the A9 will offer both four-wheel and rear-wheel, but the possible transmission stays a mystery. The basic model will be launched in 2015, but in the process of development will be launched many more versions of A9.

The debut should be by the end of next year, and model will most probably be released during 2016. A coupe and convertible variants will cost around $100,000, while the sedan is raising the bar to $150,000.

Nissan Reveals The Story Behind The Design Of Concept 2020 Vision Gran Turismo

Nissan Reveals The Story Behind The Design Of Concept 2020 Vision Gran Turismo

Nissan Concept 2020 Vision Gran Turismo has been introduced last week and it was also announced that the virtual car will join the PlayStation3 game on 6th of July. In fact, the game celebrates 15 years anniversary since it was released for the first time on the market. This Nissan concept has a strange V-motion front fascia and slender headlights. Also, there have been added huge air-intakes which were specifically made that big to deliver enough air for the powerful engine. The unit is producing more than 800HP (588 kW).

In the video below, which the company has just published, Nissan tells the story of how Concept 2020 Vision Gran Turismo’s life began. Initially it was a dream project for young Nissan designers. They were given the freedom to create the perfect supercar … for their own Gran Turismo fantasy garage, of course.

The team at Nissan Design Europe based in London however, created a spectacular design which seemed to have so much potential. It also benefited from input from an engineering team based in Japan.

In addition, their design also adapted cues from current Nissan performance models. The concept was created from scratch with the latest digital tools. In the video the designers say that this design will be used in future Nissan vehicles and probably will turn out to be a future concept.

A full-size Nissan Concept 2020 Vision Gran Turismo will be presented at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.
