BMW Introduce their first electric Coupe

Coming next year to the UK, the “1 Series Active E” is BMWs first Electric Coupe. Its only limited to 90Mph but its a massive test for BMW to see if it can really take off over here. Only a few will be able to get their hands on the car but if all goes well, its ready to be put into full production. Because of its 170bhp engine, the 0-60 speed is pretty impressive, under 9 seconds.

With a ‘fast charging’ point, the car only takes 3 hours to charge the battery which gives users around 100 miles. The people that are able to get their hands on the car will have to fork out nearly £600 a month to lease it (insurance included we expect) plus what ever it will cost to keep it fully charged.

Affordable Hyundai

Check out the new coupe from Hyundai, now at an incredible price of £12,000.

Hyundai Coupe 2009

This makes it the cheapest Hyundai Coupe model ever, and it doesn’t come with anything less. In fact, Hyundai are including heated seats for the front, leather seats, cruise control and twin exhausts. Judging by the already thousands of orders placed, its going to become popular.

The engine isn’t weak either, with a 2.0 litre engine, it stays within the usual coupe style. But the new price tag makes it just as affordable as most new hatchbacks!
