‘Oh, we just love the Aston Martin.’ There is absolutely no doubt about it because no luxury car speeds as well as this one. But all that said, we are always having a billion second thought before talking this beauty out on the streets of crowded cities like Manhattan, London or even Tokyo. Well, none of us would like to risk getting this exotic beauty from entangling with a bus or delivery truck.

But fret no more. The smart fellas at brand Aston Martin have worked up a cool solution. The name’s Cygnet and the car is as practical an alternative to the bigger version of the Aston Martin that we all have loved so much and stil do. This new urban car concept is just the choice when you want to speed up to the city center while enjoying all the comforts of an Aston Martin.

We are told that the Cygnet is isnpired by the iQ micro-car from Toyota. So far Aston Martin is not committing as to when this concept will go into actual production but we expect it to be offered as an accompaniment to a standard Aston Martin something along the lines of a dinghy with a yacht.

Passionate drivers just hate stoplights! And if you belong to the clan, this is something just for you! Knowing how to time stoplights is a key element to driving, you don’t want to stop completely at every stoplight just when it’s going to turn green immediately. That’s a waste of fuel! What you want is to slow down just enough to catch the light as its turning green again. Now that’s what’s called the efficient way to drive and you would agree too.

Well, Audi is currently testing out an ingenious system that would tell you exactly when lights you’re approaching are set to change. The project “Travolution” networks cars with traffic signals wirelessly, showing you exactly when the upcoming light is going to change and how fast you should be going to clear it. Smart! Now how and when this project completes and meets us, one can only eagerly wait. This will not only improve fuel efficiency, but it should make traffic flow a lot smoother.

How awesome would it be if this became standard in all cars and on all roads? But one thing’s for sure-one’s it’s here, its here to stay. Till then do we have something to update us on how long or soon is this project getting the green signal for itself?

Yes, the simulator is news can walk on its wheels and features passenger seat. I think it is reason enough to go crazy about “pragmatic” DaVinci driving simulator from Mirage3D. And the couch is ultra-comfortable. If lately you have also undergone the realization of having proclivity for racing and DUIs then experience the extreme driving familiarity with roll bars, ultra-realistic, working gauges, monitored by an involved “Smart Box” PC. Adaptable to customize your needs for steering and pedals, it can be fitted for a left or right hand drive. Enlightening the setting of a real race field, it comes equipped with a 5 channel Dolby digital 5.1 surround or 2.1 system.

So, if you want to flaunt your racing spirit then no need to burn few $$$$ rather follow this revolutionary way of dealing with the Da Vinci Rig.

Ooops….you dare not miss that it do has a seat belt to respect your safety concern.

While hours back, I introduced to the Computer Bike and now adding to the comfort we have coupe laptop, a concept notebook developed by Cario. The concept features laptop mounted on the drivers’ steering wheel, with no pinch of disturbance. This is going to be an elite concept laptop for mobile workers or people who can’t afford to sit at desk for long hours due to their demanding presence at distant places. While driving, they can have access to their inbox or just go through their PPT developed for the meeting you are moving ahead.

This integrated notebook connected to the car system allows the user an easy access to personalize the vehicles setting as per his convenience. For safe driving, you can utilize cario notebook as HUD with the projector. All eager eyes are waiting for this concept to turn into reality.
