Show Cars

Citroen promised to send us about her new concept, the DS Wild Rubies. Additional information on April 11 And the French held. The Wild Rubies will probably serve as a basis for the SUV of the DS line and will be admired for the first time at the Auto Shanghai 2013.

A few days before the opening of the stock market in Shanghai, Citroen more information about her long-awaited new study model: the DS Wild Rubis. Gives the concept car, like the Numero 9 form to a DS line specially designed for China. Citroen points with both the four-door coupe as well as her arrows with this SUV on the Asian country. The arrival of the Citroen DS Wild Rubis to Europe is not at all certain.

Plug-in Hybrid
or he will do continent or not, he does indicate where Citroen is doing. And thats plug-in hybrid technology. This Citroen DS Wild Rubis is the first Citroën has a plug to recharge. But what the exact specifications are Citroen wants to tell us. What dimensions the crossover can compete with the BMW X3 and Audi Q5. With a length of 4.70 meters and height of 1.95 meters, he let the German competition even. A relatively low roofline makes for a slightly sportier look and let the width come into its own. Large 21-inch wheels may not reach the production stage, but let the relatively long wheelbase of 2.9 meters true.

 New identity
The French like to refer to the identity of the Citroen DS line when it comes to their new study. Chrome trim on the sides, aerodynamic roof racks in the back of the body disappear and a front three dimensional seem to propagate the new identity of the DS line. Under that identity moreover understands Citroen full LED-headlight from three mobile light modules, turn signals the lights frame and overflowing in the lower part and a special paint discolored as he longer in the state are points that make the Wild Rubies to the latest personality of the DS.

With great enthusiasm, our spy photographer sends these photos of the Volkswagen cross up! by. "Completely --!” He opens his mail. The car is part of Volkswagens winter test team currently in northern Scandinavia the first kilometers through the icy cold makes.

Volkswagen presented the cross up! September last year already at the IAA in Frankfurt. Then perhaps as a concept, but Volkswagen made quite quickly that the model would go into production virtually unchanged. Indeed, we reason in January of this year the first kilometers with a prototype of the model.

15 mm
all things considered the cross up! Neither more nor less than a five-door up! 15 millimeters more ground clearance, which is tougher bumper work and a few plastic inserts on the wheel arches. A cross here and there and it -- benjamin so can be wheeled into the showrooms. How seriously this test work is performed is therefore debatable. Maybe Volkswagen the car are very conscious in the spotlight driven. A little attention to an imminent launch is never wrong. Well, mission accomplished!
