Volkswagen has unveiled a new roadster at the 2009 Detroit Auto show. This is the Volkswagen BlueSport. It’s basically a Audi TT with a Scirocco face in reverse. If the Audi TT has a longer front end, the BlueSport is the opposite, it has a shorter front end and a longer back end. Volkswagen want to prove that you can have a sport car with a small fuel consumption.

The Detroit Auto Show has started, Audi had a great start on the first day with the 2 cars launched, the Audi A7 and the all new Audi R8 V10. First we have to talk about the A7, or how they like to call it, the Sportback Concept. This is Audi’s answer to all those four door coupes out there.

Check out the videos and a video of the new Ford Ranger Max:

Hybrid cars are the future, or so it seems in the present. Either way, Toyota is trying to be ready so they’re developing some hybrid cars that could help the masses fuel consumption. Toyota has presented itself at the LA show with a Camry hybrid.
