Porsche Brings Back 1970s Nostalgia With The Limited-Edition 911 Spirit 70

Porsche brings a bit of nostalgic hippie vibes with the limited-edition Porsche 911 Spirit 70. Based on the 911 GTS Cabriolet, this marks the third Heritage Design model from the German sportscar maker and brings with it the spirit of disco, rebellion, bell bottom pants, and rock and roll.

No, Tobey, you don’t need new glasses. What you’re looking at isn’t a 1950s Chevrolet Corvette, but rather it’s the Songsan SS Dolphin.

With the ongoing global pandemic, new vehicle launches at Auto China were slim pickings. Still, you have to hand it over to the Chinese manufacturers to come up with some rather unexpected laughs. One of the oddities launched is this: the Hongqi E-HS9—a luxury SUV designed in the same vein as the Rolls-Royce Cullinan.

Could Kia PH Bring in the 2021 K5 from China?

Ford Revives Escort for Chinese Market

Before the Focus, the Philippines had the Lynx; but for the rest of the world, Ford’s compact sedan was the Escort. And now, the nameplate’s being revived but for the Chinese market (for now). Shown at Auto China in its final production form, the Escort is a compact sedan based off Ford’s global c-segment platform.

While others have reported on a refreshed Chevrolet Cruze (with a Malibu-like front grille), here is the Cruze that the Philippines would most likely get: the global Cruze which was debuted at Auto China in Beijing.

Normally concept cars are things of pure imagination: outrageous lights, wheels, doors, and what have you. But once in a while, there comes a concept car that seems almost ready to cross the line between design studio to showroom floor. Once such example is the Volkswagen Golf R 400—a car which, as it says on the tin, pushes out 400 horsepower. Concept car my a**!
