We were hoping that Kia would be revealing their new production version of the KOUP concept car at the up and coming British Motor Show – but that doesn’t look like it will happen. Rumor has it that Kia will be revealing a revised version of the Sportage mini-ute.
Arlen Ness is one of the biggest legends in the motorcycle industry. He started off his job by painting motorcycles on the weekends as a way to make extra money. Over time he was able to hone his skills and earn himself a reputation that allowed him to create a small company that would sell parts. Gradually his business grew and he has become quite successful.
Honda will be revealing their new hybrid model during the 2008 Paris Motor Show. Honda’s CEO – Takeo Fukui – stated during an interview that the new model will be similar to the FCX Clarity – a hydrogen fuel cell model.
