This hard-charging version of the timeless “wedge” design celebrates the styling house’s 100-year anniversary, with a concept car that is rife with bold angles, dramatic glass, and brilliant swathes of color.
Geneva 2012: Giugiaro Brivido Concept
There’s no lack of concept cars in Geneva this year (is there ever?), with a special emphasis seemingly placed on those that can boast supercar looks and performance, hybrid or EV powertrains, and impenetrable names.
Geneva 2012: Disco Volante 2012
Italian coachbuilder Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera, and its utterly jaw-dropping Disco Volante 2012, represent a lot of what we like about the Geneva Motor Show. This has always been the place for the best and most creative of the European custom builders to show their stuff, and this full-scale model is no exception.
First Look: 2013 Lexus RX
Lexus has taken the occasion of this year’s Geneva Motor Show to unveil its cosmetically refreshed, 2013 RX crossover.
Geneva 2012: Infiniti Emerg-E Concept
Infiniti’s newest concept car, the slinky Emerg-E Concept seen here, plays up several recently prominent themes from within the larger Nissan world. First, the idea of an Infiniti “halo” car to bring further credibility (in this case, performance cred) to the luxury brand. Second, the importance of EV and range-extended-EV tech in Infiniti’s future portfolio.
First Look: 2012 Lamborghini Aventador J
Apparently the rumors have been quickly confirmed. The Lamborghini Aventador J exists, is headed for a Geneva debut, and will then be put up for sale. There’s just one caveat: Lamborghini is only building the one.
Geneva 2012: Ford Fiesta ST
First, the good news: Ford is going to show what it calls a “production-ready” Fiesta ST to the awestruck show-goers at the Geneva Motor Show this week. Also of note: this ST is radical.
Geneva 2012: 2013 Aston Martin V12 Zagato Video
About a month ago we brought you a First Look on the stunning new V12 Zagato from Aston Martin. The world debut of the car is slated for this week in Geneva, and Aston has given us another, decidedly more visceral, taste of the V12 with this lovely video.
List: Geneva Motor Show Preview

First Look: 2011 Volkswagen Polo GTI To Debut In Geneva
The three-door performance hatch’s 1.4-liter gasoline engine benefits from both a supercharger and a turbocharger, boosting throughout the rev range, and minimizing turbo lag (this is the same technology found in Europe’s MkV Golf GT). 178 horsepower and 182 pound-feet of torque are put to the wheels via a compact seven-speed DSG transmission.
Porsche Shows 2011 911 Turbo S Before Geneva

2011 Mazda5 To Debut At This Year’s Geneva Motor Show
We’ve often said that the Mazda5 is one of the most overlooked cars on the road today. To the naked eye, it’s pure minivan, but its small proportions and Mazda3 platform mean it’s actually quite fun to drive and is a relatively useful package. The small MPV segment will grow over the next few years in the United States, and Mazda will be ready with an all-new version of the 5, set to make its official debut at this year’s Geneva Motor Show.
