Toyota thinks it has a solution, and it’s called the i-ROAD. The small, three-wheeled electric-powered concept is something of a cross between a [...]

| Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series First Drive: Mercedes’ Crown Jewel Is Now a Black Diamond |
Mar 4th, 2013 |
|
Not particularly beautiful but extremely rare and exotic, carbonado is an incredibly hard stone also known as black diamond. It is found exclusively in Brazil and Central Africa, and yet the traces of hydrogen contained within carbonado suggest that it wasn’t even formed on this planet.

Mar 4th, 2013 |
|
We figure now that Porsche is part of the all-conquering Volkswagen Group, it would probably be okay for it to just borrow Audi’s tagline Vorsprung durch Technik.
