The Jaguar C-X17 concept has made its world premiere at an exclusive event ahead of the Frankfurt motor show, debuting the brand’s all-new lightweight vehicle platform and previewing the first-ever Jaguar SUV. It’s the first to be built on the company’s new aluminium monocoque structure for smaller cars, which carries the codename iQ[Al]. The C-X17 is finished in a cobalt blue, called Caesium, with glossy black brightwork around the windows, and graphite five-spoke split alloys (23in in diameter). A production crossover inspired by the C-X17 is set to follow in 2016.

The Cerro Negro volcano is a big smoking hill in the northwestern part of Nicaragua, waiting to surf and toboggan down it. The volcano is only about 500 meters high (675 meters above sea level), but the ascent is steep and tough. The slope is a full 40° in places, and the ride is fast and hot. Cerro Negro is the most recent basaltic cinder cone to form in the western hemisphere.

This fantastic krypton green color became signature color for Lotus Elise. Lotus with this color is a eye catcher. Lotus is a two seat, rear-wheel drive, mid-engined roadster released in September 1996 by the English manufacturer Lotus Cars. The Elise only carried a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder behind the cockpit. That plus a six-speed shifter was enoughto get the car from a standstill to 60 mph in 6 seconds.
