Before the crisis they were already working on this beautiful Artega GT. But when the economy stumbled, Dellbrück experienced problems and in late 2009, the Mexican investment fund Capital Trasalia put things in the hands of Paragon. The car survived and is prepared to truly begin a long career.

The GT is a fine work out of the pen of a former designer ofAston Martin, Henrik Fisker. True, it recalls the Cayman. For although it is a sporting thoroughbred, never flowing lines is ruined by a spoiler extravagant. But make no mistake, there is a real rear diffuser, which, even at speeds exceeding 200 km / h, the car sticks to the bitumen.

With just under 4 meters long, the Artega GT is compact. She is taller than 1.20 m, 1.90 m wide but Inside, there are a few elements from at Volkswagen alongside other control buttons designed in-house. For example, the analog clock that features an ultramodern touch screen used to control the audio system, GPS, air conditioning, the setting … It is his way quickly through the menus, although at first it looks a bit. The whole rests on a Linux operating system.

Volkswagen

With a key VW all that is ordinarily one wakes a VW engine rumbling in the back. But not an ordinary engine: the 3.6 V6 Passat R36. Its sound is sublime with its DSG, it takes off the starting blocks like a rocket. According to Arteaga, the 000-100 is executed in 4.8 seconds, one second better than the Passat R36. And on each of the six reports, one is entitled to an acceleration in real kick in the butt.

Although the Artega is a “simple” propulsion motor is never faulted tumble when the 300 hp. If you want, you can push it up to 270 km / h, but be aware that the car starts to seem light on its wheels from 250. With a tank of 70 liters, autonomy is perfectly adequate but it will show a hell of a lot of self-control approach to the announced average of 8.9 l/100 km (CO2: 220g/km).

Eaters curves

The cornering is really his thing. The GT weighs 1.3 tons and above its weight distribution is ideal (43% to 57% behind). While seated in the seat Recaro, the driver has the feeling that he could look far limits of grip. And when it is reached, the ESP and ABS fitted as standard ensure. Light as a ballerina, she twirls curve curve. Finally, the question is: in real life, it is faster than the most powerful (320 hp) Cayman S?

Finish

The finish of our test car left something to be desired, but this concerned only the details easy to correct. The small Artega can easily reach the stage of production. The first cars will be also delivered to customers this year.

In France, it Chassey (37 Tours) which distributes the brand. In France, the GT is charged some € 84,900. A toy significantly more expensive than a Cayman S, but also a damn sight more exclusive.

Completing a compelling alternative energy collection, let us also recognize the Honda FCX Clarity is a fuel cell vehicle. Powered by hydrogen, the FCX Clarity sedan is also technically an electric car since hydrogen fuel is cycled into electrical energy. However, with new automotive gravitating to plug-in or pure electric vehicles, some were concerned that the Japanese auto company was falling off-track on the advanced powertrain bandwagon. In a July 20th release, Honda ended silence by providing details to their future electric vehicle production plans.

The biggest news item amounting from the auto manufacturer’s mid-year announcement pledges that both a plug-in hybrid as well as an all-electric vehicle will be destined for customers for 2012. While no official blueprints have been presented, some expectations for the all-electric car meant deeply reflect the concept Honda EV-N subcompact. If this is true, Honda will be giving the Nissan Leaf a run for its money in the pint-sized electric class (it would also make be an interesting closed circuit match race in the future). When released, this vehicle will be Honda North America’s first battery electric automobile since 340 EV Plus vehicles were distributed. For anyone who have watched the documentary ‘Who Killed the Electric Car?’, many of those first-generation Honda electriccars met a tragic, unceremonious end being quietly destroyed in a wrecking yard.
