Geneva 09': VW Unveils the 2010 Polo

VW has unveiled the 2010 Polo, which will be officially unveiled tomorrow at the Geneva Motor Show.

The all-new Polo looks very similar to the larger Golf and is larger than the outgoing model. Despite the fact that the new Polo is larger, the overall body weight has been reduced by 7.5 percent. The new Polo is also expected to attain the highest 5-star EuroNCAP rating.

Seven different engines will be offered on the Polo, four gas and three diesel, five of which are new.

Sales of the new Polo will begin at the end of June in Germany and the rest of Europe shortly afterwards. VW has also announced that the Polo will eventually be offered in the US, possibly as early as 2010.

2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Photos Leaked via the Web

The first official images of the 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class have leaked onto the web today. We've seen lots of spy photos and renderings of the new sedan, so these photos aren't all that exciting.

The 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class will be officially unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show next month. Mercedes previewed the new E-Class with the Mercedes-Benz ConceptFascination and its apparent that the sedan draws many cues from the concept. The front-end ditches the four round headlights for four more angular pieces. There are also new led light strips on the lower front bumper. Overall the styling of the new E-Class brings it more inline with the larger S-Class and smaller C-Class sedans.

Expect more details soon...

Audi Photos Show Up on the Web...Is this the 2010 Audi A8?

The Audi A8 is definitely one of the oldest cars in Audi's lineup and a redesign is in the works. The forum Gulf4Cars has posted a few photos of what we can expect the 2010 Audi A8 to look like, but the main question is are these photos real or just photo shopped.

If these photos are indeed real, the next A8 is going to feature a more evolutionary redesign. The front of the car features the same grille that we've now used to from Audi mated to new headlights that are similar to the rest of the new Audi lineup. The rear end also features taillights that are very similar to the new A4 and A6.
