The Highlights of the Frankfurt Motor Show

Hello everyone! Sorry about the lack of recent posts- I've been on work experience this week and busy with that and this huge article. So, here it is. This is a brief summary of the highlight reveals from the Frankfurt Motor Show.

Porsche TAYCAN:

It’s finally been unveiled in production spec and it's beautiful. Not only that, it's finally a serious challenger to Tesla, accelerating to 60mph in 2.6 seconds, has 751hp and a range of about 250 miles. Top speed is 161mph and it can recharge in 22 ½ minutes. This thing is brilliant.

Land Rover DEFENDER:

The successor to the iconic Defender is here in 90 and 110 form and it's brilliant. It's powered by a 2 litre turbo-diesel engine, or a hybird or the Ingenium petrol. The hybrid goes from 0-60 in 5.7 seconds, but that;s not the point of the car. That is the Terrain Response 2 system, dual locked diffs and air suspension enabling it to go anywhere, as well as ahost of luxury features.

Bugatti CHIRON SS300:

This Chiron is sure hot! It's a special edition to commemorate the CHiron breaking 300mph. It costs 3.5 million dollars and one has already been bought, with the papers apparently signed with the prototype being used as the desk to put the form on. It's a cool looking longtail Chiron effectively.

Ferrari F8 SPIDER:

Here's the convertible version of the F8 Tributo. It's lighter than the Ferrari 488 Pista Spider, and is more powerful.

Volkswagen ID3:

This is Volkswagen's first ever electric production video and it actually looks pretty cool, sort of like a German Chevy Bolt. It has three motor options- a 45kwh motor giving out 145hp, and a 58kwh and 77kwh which both produce nearly 200hp.

Mercedes EQS and BMW Concept 4:

These two German sedan concepts are quite similar. The Mercedes is all-electric and has 477hp. The BMW is a 85% production ready concept with a giant kidney grille and some cues from the 8 Series.

Honda E:

This is the production version of the Honda e Concept from earlier in the year. The only majorly new information is the horsepower figure, which is 154 horsepower.
