We first went to press nine years ago when the automotive world was definitely a different place, with different priorities, when it was all about the pleasure of driving, style and performance. Now, of course, the focus has shifted - to sustainability, piloted driving and electromobility. It goes without saying that it is the support from our dear readers that keeps us working tirelessly to make every issue of our magazine a jam packed digest of the best stories culled from the automotive world. The month of January has signaled a good start this year for the automotive industry. Two major shows held last month in the United States heralded key trends in the industry. The Consumer Electronics Show which was held in Las Vegas from January 6 to January 9 served as the platform to showcase electromobility and automated driving concepts. Ford chose to announce its Smart Mobility Plan at CES. New technologies demonstrated at the show included the piloted driving concept pioneered by Audi that makes driving easy even for novices. The North American International Automobile Show which was held from January 12 to January 25 in Detroit witnessed several impressive product launches. Detroit is the hub of the automotive industry in the United States and is now experiencing a resurgence with encouraging sales figures after the global downturn.

  • 1:18 Top Marques W Motors Lykan Hypersport Review
    1:18 Top Marques W Motors Lykan Hypersport Review The W Motors Lykan Hypersport, to give the car it’s full title, is the first Arab supercar and is built by W Motors in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Limited to just 7 units worldwide, this $3.4 million hypercar is the third most expensive vehicle built to date. The pre- production prototype was revealed at the Qatar Motor Show in February 2013. Being car nuts, most of us will remember the red Lykan Hypersport from the film Furious 7 as it flew through the Etihad Towers in Dubai. It is the first car to have jewel embedded headlights with 420 15 carat diamonds and also features a holographic display system on the centre console with interactive motion features. On the performance front, the Lykan Hypersport is powered by a 3.7 litre twin- turbocharged flat six engine developed by German tuner RUF and produces 780BHP and 960NM of torque. W Motors claim it will go from 0-62MPH in just 2.8 seconds and onto a top speed of 245MPH, but I don’t believe anyone has ever proven these figures accurate. Top Marques Collectibles produce all sorts of sealed resin models from the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 to the Alfa Romeo 4C and Fiat Uno Turbo. This is apparently limited to 300 units, but there isn’t any certificate of authenticity or a plaque on the base of the model to indicate this. Let’s start with the unboxing experience this time around. This is my first Top Marques model, so I thought I’d share this part of the ritual.
