Cartell at the Geneva Motor Show

Cartell will be there at the Geneva Motor Show this week! And you won’t find a single press photograph! Instead we’re going to bring you exclusives from the event! To mark the occasion we’re also going to run a super competition from Geneva which will feature on the site and on our facebook page.

First held in 1905 the show is widely considered the premier annual motor show in the world where manufacturers debut new vehicles and concepts. Located next to the airport in Geneva the event is held every year in the Geneva Palexpo. Through the years the show has given the public the first glimpse of some of the most significant vehicles ever manufactured and 2012 will be no different. The event is also renowned for its glamour.

Vehicles we can’t wait to look at this year include: the Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. This vehicle is a convertible version of the Veyron which sports a removable targa-style roof and outputs 1,200-horsepower, through its 8.0-litre quad-turbo V-16. It’s an astonishing machine in both looks and performance; the Lamborghini Aventador J is the latest iconic vehicle to leave the Lamborghini stable. However this time there’s a catch: Lambo will only build one of them! They’re billing it as the “the most uncompromising open super sports car of its entire history”; in terms of ‘ordinary’ vehicles we’re looking forward to checking out the all-new Mercedes-Benz A Class which debuts at Geneva. This vehicle will target younger drivers with a next-generation screen interface and an integrated version of Apple’s Siri speech-processing technology. It has been completely redesigned too; also debuting is the new Audi A3 Hatchback which brings this compact hatch up-to-date with the “freshened design cues of the rest of the Audi lineup”.

We’ll bring you exclusives on all of these vehicles and a lot more! So keep an eye on our site this week!
