From Frankfurt with rage
Novelties from Show Room
Over the past months we have announced some extraordinary previews like the Rolls-Royce Ghost, the Maserati GranCabrio or the Ferrari “458 Italia”, but during these days, the Show Room of Frankfurt is lighting up the floodlights on real pearls on four wheels.
In fact, on 17th September opens its doors one of the most awaited events of car fans that will be able to admire the last novelties about engines until the next 27th September. Celebrating its 63th edition, the International Motor Show of Frankfurt stretches over a wide surface of 225,000 s-m that will host 1000 exhibitors and about 1 million visitors.
And if in Frankfurt there are obviously suggestions for every taste and requirement, there are also few models that can’t be admired.
Let’s start with Lamborghini Reventon Roadster, extreme super-sportive with a V12 of 670 hp and available in dull grey, slipping to the small but gritty Abarth 695 «Tributo Ferrari », with its 180 hp and a very sportive set, to the Aston Martin Rapide, embodying a new challenge within the narrow sphere of the four doors coupe.
Limited edition for Porsche that at the Show Room presents, besides the 911 Turbo and the 911 Gt3 destined to racing, another variant of 911, of 403 hp and oh which there are only 250 items.
It is being talked about, although not always positively, the new Jaguar Xj, that thanks to the use of aluminium, treated with techniques of aerospace derivation, weighs 150 kilos less than the competitors. Endowed with a 275 hp engine (the V6 diesel) has a bodyshop 50% made of recycled elements, with the chance to raise the percentage to 75.
Obviously there is room also for less attainable novelties although always worth notice like the two novelties, really sportive, by Mini, the Concept Coupé and the Roaster or the 5Gt and the XI of Bmw.
Big trend of this edition 2009 of the Show Room of Frankfurt are the electric cars among which stand out supercars like Audi R8 and Mercedes Sls Amg with 563 hp.
Among the hybrids we point out the Bmw « Vision Efficient Dynamics », car of the future endowed with a small three cylinders turbodiesel engine cobined with two electric engines or the concept ix-Metro of Hyundai, a Suv-shaped city car.
