The company was formed as Lotus Engineering Ltd. by engineer Colin Chapman, a graduate of University College, London, in 1952. The first factory was in old stables behind the Railway Hotel in Hornsey, North London. Team Lotus, which was split off from Lotus Engineering in 1954, was active and competitive in Formula One racing from 1958 to 1994. The Lotus Group of Companies was formed in 1959. This was made up of Lotus Cars Limited and Lotus Components Limited which focused on road cars and customer competition car production respectively. Lotus Components Limited became Lotus Racing Limited in 1971 but the newly renamed entity ceased operation in the same year.

The company moved to a purpose built factory at Cheshunt in 1959 and since 1966 the company has occupied a modern factory and road test facility at Hethel, near Wymondham. This site is the former RAF Hethel base and the test track uses sections of the old runway.

Chapman died of a heart attack in 1982 at the age of 54, having begun life an innkeeper's son and ended a multi-millionaire industrialist in post-war Britain. The car maker built tens of thousands of successful racing and road cars and won the Formula One World Championship seven times. At the time of his death he was linked with the DeLorean scandal over the use of government subsidies for the production of the DeLorean DMC-12 for which Lotus had designed the chassis.

In 1986, the company was bought by General Motors. On 27 August 1993, GM sold the company, for £30 million, to A.C.B.N. Holdings S.A. of Luxembourg, a company controlled by Italian businessman Romano Artioli, who also owned Bugatti Automobili SpA. In 1996, a majority share in Lotus was sold to Perusahaan Otomobil Nasional Bhd (Proton), a Malaysian car company listed on the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange.

The company also acts as an engineering consultancy, providing engineering development—particularly of suspension—for other car manufacturers. The lesser known Powertrain department is responsible for the design and development of the 4-cylinder Ecotec engine found in many of GM's Vauxhall, Opel, Saab, Chevrolet and Saturn cars. Today, the current Lotus Elise and Exige models use the 1.8L VVTL-i I4 from Toyota's late Celica GT-S and the Matrix XRS.

The company is organised as Group Lotus, which is divided into Lotus Cars and Lotus Engineering.

Michael Kimberley took over as Acting Chief Executive Officer of the Company and its Group from May 2006. He currently chairs the Executive Committee of Lotus Group International Limited ("LGIL") established in February 2006, with Syed Zainal Abidin (Managing Director of Proton Holdings Berhad) and Badrul Feisal (non-executive director of Proton Holdings Berhad). LGIL is the holding company of Lotus Group Plc.

Kimberley retired as CEO on 17 July 2009[3] and was replaced as CEO by Dany T Bahar on 1 October 2009. Bahar was formerly Senior Vice President, Commercial & Brand for Ferrari SpA where he was responsible for worldwide road car sales and after sales business, overall road car and F1 marketing activities, licensing, and merchandising business.

Lorinser Mercedes

The most luxurious saloon of the house Mercedes becomes more unique with the performer Lorinser . For almost 30 years working with preparations Lorinser Mercedes, and this is a guarantee and security that they know what they do.

This is a slight modification without destroying the line Mercedes. a front lip, a rear spoiler or a heel without realizing that you bring a new identity. What I really like and draws attention are the side vents above the doors. Huge wheels of 22 "whispering style to tire of the SLR . Of course, much less aggressive and sharp.

The exhaust system is replaced by aesthetics and performance. Lorinser considered timely expansion of V12 power. It is based on a new exhaust outlet turbo timing and perhaps a new map for the ECU. What he brings to the flagship total more than 110 additional hp.

Inside Lorinser logo appears on the mats, among other places. You can see finished aluminum as a way to shine a very elegant interior as is Mercedes. I think a saloon rather interesting. While I recognize who do not speak the final price of the kit, nor benefit or consumption. The sports saloons , increasingly fashionable.

2011 Land Rover

2011 Land Rover

2011 Land Rover

“The 2011 Range Rover retains its position as one of the world’s most complete luxury vehicles. Its combination of reduced CO2 emissions and superior engine performance continue to make it a clear industry benchmark. And with the introduction of our all-new ‘super diesel’, we see the Range Rover delivering over 30mpg for the first time.”
Phil Popham, Land Rover Managing Director

A new, class-leading V8 diesel engine, new 8-speed transmission, two significant Terrain Response® upgrades and subtle external styling all combine to ensure the 2011 Range Rover retains its crown as king of the luxury SUV segment.

The LR-TDV8 4.4-litre with parallel sequential turbocharging replaces the outstanding LR-TDV8 3.6-litre and is unique to the Range Rover. An all-new ‘super-diesel’, the LR-TDV8 combines superior power and massive torque with unparalleled levels of refinement. Despite the extra performance, this sublime V8 engine is cleaner too, delivering even lower fuel consumption and CO2 emissions than its predecessor and meeting the stringent EU5 emissions standards. The headline news, though, is that the combined cycle fuel consumption of the new LR-TDV8 4.4-litre is just 30.1mpg, making this the first Range Rover ever to better 30mpg.

With 313PS and 700Nm torque, the Range Rover’s new powertrain matches power with conscience, reducing CO2 emissions by an impressive 14 percent. The new diesel engine is helped in this respect by its marriage to an impressive new, electronically controlled, ZF 8HP70, 8-speed automatic gearbox tuned by Land Rover engineers to combine silky smooth shifting with exceptionally rapid response and outstanding fuel economy. This daunting combination is enough to catapult the Range Rover from rest to 60mph in a mere 7.5 seconds and complete the 50mph-75mph dash in just 5.1 seconds.

Available only on 4.4-litre LR-TDV8 models, this ‘smart’ transmission integrates with the diesel engine to deliver the most efficient operating regime in all conditions. To reflect the performance of the new 4.4-litre LR-TDV8, diesel models are fitted with the same Brembo-based braking system fitted to the 5.0-litre LR-V8 supercharged model. Providing the immense stopping power required for only the highest performing vehicles, the system comprises 380mm ventilated front discs with unique, lightweight aluminium six-piston opposed action monoblock calipers. 365mm ventilated discs with single piston sliding calipers are fitted at the rear.

For 2011, the Range Rover retains the same class-leading 5.0-litre LR-V8, supercharged petrol engine married to the ZF HP28 6-speed automatic transmission introduced in 2010. Developing 510PS and 625Nm torque the Supercharged LR-V8 will take the Range Rover from 0-60mph in a breath-taking 5.9 seconds.

The 2011 Range Rover is further enhanced by improvements to the Terrain Response® system in the form of Hill Start Assist and Gradient Acceleration Control. Inside the cabin there are optional illuminated treadplates for the front doors, new transmission controls for the diesel model, and improvements to the entertainment system. Detail improvement to the exterior include new ‘Jupiter’ grilles and side vents for the diesel models.

A new Exterior Design Pack option gives customers the chance to give their Range Rover a more individual look and new colours and wheels have been added to the range.

Most Anticipated Vehicles Of 2011 by Fobes.com - top12

December used to be a special time for car dealers, the start of a new model year, when the latest vehicles would start arriving in showrooms drawing curious buyers looking for the newest styles and latest technologies.

Over the years, carmakers got away from the model-year calendar and started rolling out their latest designs on a staggered basis to keep consumers interested all year long.
Still, autumn is the traditional start of the new model year for the auto industry, and the theme for 2011 is unmistakable: small, fuel-efficient cars.
he 2011 offerings reflect America's changing priorities after a spike in gas prices in 2008 and tough new emissions rules enacted by the U.S. government.

Of course, there are some high-profile debuts, most notably the Chevrolet Volt plug-in hybrid, perhaps the most-hyped car in history, and the Nissan ( NSANY - news - people ) Leaf all-electric, both due in November. While the Leaf runs on battery power alone, with a range of up to 100 miles on a single charge, the Volt has a backup engine to recharge the battery for longer trips and to relieve what General Motors calls "range anxiety." GM recently revised the Volt's range on battery power to 25 miles (from 40) but it doesn't really matter if you've got the gasoline engine to keep you going.

But assuming you didn't already put down a deposit on one of these plug-ins, you'll find plenty of other green choices on dealer lots.
Most are fuel-sipping compacts or subcompacts, like the Chevrolet Cruze, hitting dealerships now, or the overhauled Ford Focus, which goes on sale early next year. The Cruze replaces the ho-hum Chevy Cobalt, which just couldn't compete with other small cars in its class. It offers two fuel-efficient engines capable of up to 40 miles per gallon. It also offers a range of new safety features, including 10 standard airbags, and a more refined interior. The big question is whether Americans accustomed to discounts will pay $17,000 to $23,000 for a small Chevrolet.

Ford Motor has already been testing the theory of small premium cars, with some success. The new Focus is the next step in Ford's effort to remake its car lineup, and it can't arrive a moment to soon. The current Focus has grown tired and hasn't kept up with the competition. It now sells for less than the smaller Fiesta subcompact, which went on sale earlier this year. Ford hopes Focus buyers will follow the pattern set by Fiesta owners, who've been willing to spend more for extras like leather seats, premium stereos and wireless connectivity.

Some of the new models for 2011 are really tiny, like the bulb-shaped Fiat ( FIATY.PK - news - people ) 500, which will be sold by Chrysler dealers early next year, and the Scion IQ, a teeny two-door designed for urban dwellers. It's about the size of a Smart ForTwo, and only half as ugly.

Hyundai Equus
This $60,000 luxury sedan is the biggest stretch yet for the Korean carmaker, which has steadily improved its reputation over the past decade. While it doesn't fit the trend of small fuel-efficient cars, it's still an interesting car to watch. The Equus will try to go up against the Mercedes S-class and the Lexus LS. Given Hyundai's success to date, the Equus shouldn't be underestimated.

BMW X1
This baby SUV from BMW, due in early 2011, is based on the 1-series compact. It slots in below the redesigned X3, which has just started production at BMW's recently expanded factory in South Carolina. The X1 would be a strong entry in the small luxury crossover market.

Kia Optima
Like its larger Korean sister, Hyundai, Kia's vehicles are becoming a lot more attractive and reliable. This redesigned mid-sized sedan shares a platform with the hot-selling Hyundai Sonata, which is getting rave reviews from automotive critics. It goes on sale this fall, with a hybrid model arriving early next year.

Scion IQ
This two-door micro-car from Toyota's youth brand is aimed at urban dwellers who spend most of their time zipping around the city or looking for a place to park. It's about the size of a Smart ForTwo, and isn't quite as weird-looking. The design is still pretty unusual, though, and might turn off some people when it goes on sale in early 2011.

Nissan Juke
This crossover is intended as an SUV version of the compact and fuel-efficient Versa hatchback. It, too, is aimed at young buyers, and comes with optional luxury features like leather seats, push-button start, navigation system and a power sunroof.

Volkswagen Jetta
Arriving this month in VW dealerships, the redesigned Jetta is part of the first wave of a renewed assault by Volkswagen in the U.S. market. It comes with a lower base price, starting around $16,000.

Mini Countryman
Minis are getting bigger. This is the largest Mini yet, and meant to look like an SUV. It'll be more practical, with more space and available all-wheel-drive, but it's still a Mini. Look for it early next year.

Ford Focus
The next-generation Focus was designed in Europe and is expected to be a huge step up from the American version that's been sold here over the past decade. Due in early 2011, it'll feature a direct-injection four-cylinder engine and a six-speed automatic transmission for improved fuel economy. Later in 2011 a battery-powered Focus will go on sale.

Fiat 500
This cute, bulb-shaped compact from Fiat is one of the bonuses of the Italian carmaker's role in rescuing Chrysler. Fiat plans to return to the U.S. market after a 30-year absence, and will sell the 500 through separate Fiat showrooms at some 165 Chrysler dealerships, starting early next year.

Chevrolet Spark
Due in the U.S. later next year, the Spark is a sporty entry-level vehicle designed by GM Daewoo Auto & Technology, General Motors' Korean subsidiary. It's part of a wave of new small cars from GM.

Ford Explorer
The iconic sport-utility has been redesigned on a car-like, unibody platform instead of a truck-based chassis. And it's been outfitted with new engines, including a turbocharged, direct-injection Ecoboost engine that promises a 30% improvement in fuel economy. It will go on sale early next year.

Chevrolet Cruze
Already a hit in Asia and Europe, the Cruze replaces the disappointing Chevy Cobalt, offering a more refined interior and better handling. Two four-cylinder engines are available, including a 1.4-liter turbocharged version that will get 40 mpg with a manual transmission. It's arriving in showrooms now.
