		<description><![CDATA[ Details on the Vision EfficientDynamics Concept come out ahead of the Frankfurt Motor Show coupled with a new video. There has been a wide open speculation as far as the powerplant found in this new concept but now is known to be compromised of a plug-in hybrid system with a 3-cyl turbo-diesel engine. That astonishing factor of the equation is that BMW plans to get “M” (Motorsport) performance out of this plug-in hybrid claiming a 0-60 time of 4.8 seconds while still able to get hybrid fuel saving figures at the same time. Below is a new video and full press release of the BMW Vision EfficientDynamics Concept. Press Release – source: BMW THE BMW VISION EFFICIENTDYNAMICS CONCEPT The latest BMW Concept Car for the EfficientDynamics philosophy]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Filed under: Sedan , Suzuki , Luxury 2010 Suzuki Kizashi - Click above for high-res image gallery We've gone to some unusual places for new product unveilings, but today's reveal of a new mid-sized sedan from Suzuki may be one of the most ironic. For some reason, the small automaker of mostly small cars chose a World War II memorial in suburban Detroit for the global reveal of its most aggressive attack yet on the heart of the U.S. car market. Suzuki has always been a bit of an outlier in this market, although the company has been a strong player in the Japanese mini-car scene. Its most successful entry to date here in the U.S. has been the compact SX4. ]]></description>
