On December 16, 2020, Ford will be the first automaker to unveil a virtual P1 race car as a scale model in a livestream. In collaboration with the gaming community, the German manufacturer has developed a virtual vehicle and has now brought it to life physically. Team Fordzilla's innovative P1 race car features an exterior designed by Arturo Ariño and an interior by Robert Engelmann, both of whom are Ford designers working at the Ford Design Center in Dunton and Cologne. The race car is built around a monocoque structure partially covered by a large, aerodynamic jet fighter-style top that protects the driver and passenger. The hyper-transparent top not only blurs the lines between the exterior and interior, but also emphasizes the Formula 1-like styling of the race car.

There is a tendency to think that winter tires are specifically designed for driving in extreme snow conditions, however, they really are tires for driving in cold conditions. Its performance is better than that of summer tires on any surface with temperatures below 7ºC, temperatures that we easily find in peninsular winters.

The New Range Rover Sport has made its global premiere with a dramatic world-first climb up a flooded dam spillway in Iceland. The epic ascent saw New Range Rover Sport resist the surging torrent of water flowing down the ramp of the Karahnjukar Dam – the biggest of its kind in the world – at a rate of 750 tonnes per minute. A loss of traction risked plunging down the perilous 90m drop at the base of the spillway to the valley floor below. The successful spillway ascent was screened for the first time at an exclusive launch event at Jaguar Land Rover’s Advanced Product Creation Centre at Gaydon, UK. Official James Bond stunt driver Jessica Hawkins was behind the wheel as the New Range Rover Sport demonstrated its grip, traction, performance and composure, completing the latest in a series of challenges for Land Rover’s luxury performance SUV. Previous feats include a record-setting hill-climb at Pikes Peak, a first recorded crossing of the ‘Empty Quarter’ desert in the Arabian Peninsula and a first ascent of the 999 steps to Heaven’s Gate in China, in 2018.
