The automaker has just released not only a special model inspired by charismatic anime villain Char Aznable, but also an awesome anime commercial for it that has higher production values than the original Mobile Suit Gundam TV series.ĭespite the exalted status it now enjoys as one of the true classics of Japanese animation, 1979’s Mobile Suit Gundam isn’t the prettiest anime to look at. Being behind the wheel of a four-door hatchback doesn’t mean you have to give up your mecha jock daydreams, though, thanks to the newest collaboration between Toyota and anime franchise Gundam.

Expect the Oz line-up to feature a mix of petrol and diesel drivetrains, six-speed manual and nine-speed auto, and drive to all wheels.We’re sure everyone’s first choice for mode of transportation would be giant robot, but there are times when you need something more practical to get from Point A to Point B. At speeds below 50km/h it can avoid one altogether. Like the Freelander it replaces, the Discovery Sport will still be a serious off-road athlete, and the base S is expected to kick off for less than $50K.Īn urban-friendly crash mitigation system will automatically brake the car at speeds of up to 80km/h if it senses a collision is likely. LAND Rover’s expanded Discovery family will kick off with this entry-level five-seat model that will also offer an option to seat seven – a first for the premium SUV segment, the off-roader specialist says. July 2015, $160,000 Land Rover Discovery Sport One of the sweetest treats in the AMG stable The sedan version comes first, followed by the wagon, and if you haven’t already noticed, the new Affalterbach rocket also wears a different name (dropping Benz) that will spread across the bootlids of other AMG models. This huge appetite for luxury performance means that when Mercedes-Benz brings its new-gen C63 here next year, it will only be the higher-output S version cranking out a stonking 375kW and 700Nm from its twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8. Not only that, but when an even more potent version of the previous-generation C63 AMG, called the 507, rolled out, sales of the boggo C63 hit a brick wall as buyers sought bigger bang for their bucks. October 2015, from $45,000 Mercedes-AMG C63ĪBOUT one in every 10 new Mercedes-Benz cars rolling out of Australian showrooms last year wore an AMG badge. Old-school cool, rear-drive V8, classic style The bent-eight will start at about $ 60K. It’s old- fashioned, and unashamedly so.Īussies miss out on the excellent V6, but we’ll be able to buy the 2.3-litre turbocharged four-cylinder model as the entry-level ’Stang, priced around $45K. With an independent rear end for the first time and obligatory creamy 5.0-litre V8 soundtrack to back up its 324kW pun h, the Mustang is an everyman’s two-plus-two coupe. Ford doesn’t want its new global sports car to be mere ‘Boulevard Cruiser’ and our first drive of the new sharply styled yet still unmistakable Mustang in its native North America proved it’s on the money. THERE will be no Falcon coupe, but this is even better. It’s about time Honda sent a salvo to the Europeans At around $45K, it makes the VW Golf R look plain boring. Yet the warrior-like wings and addenda aren’t merely to woo wannabe racers they’re for carving up the Nurburgring, with Honda out to beat the hot-hatch record of 7:54.36 held by the radio-less Renaultsport Megane Trophy R.įorget lap times, though: the R will be one hard charger, with an adaptive chassis, six-speed manual only and trick ‘Steer Axis’ system to get all that power through the front treads. The UK-built ‘more than 206kW’ Civic ditches the traditional atmo engine for a turbocharged 2.0-litre four and a suit that looks like some kind of Japanese anime armour. THIS is the most powerful Type R ever, with even more grunt than the NSX R tuned by one Ayrton Senna. October 2015, $300,000 Honda Civic Type R
