			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="socialize-in-content" style="float:left;"></div><p><a href="http://trickshift.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/sls_e_cell_15.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-833" title="SLS AMG E-CELL" src="http://trickshift.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/sls_e_cell_15-577x408.jpg" alt="" width="577" height="408" /></a>Mercedes released details  on a prototype it’s calling the SLS AMG E-Cell. The  gullwing variant gets four, 12,000-rpm electric motors producing an  equivalent 525 horsepower and 649 lb-ft of torque. It&#8217;s reported to go from 0-60 in just under four seconds.</p>
<p>The motors are placed near the wheels,  but not in the hub, so they don’t count as unsprung mass. A 400-volt  lithium-ion battery provides the juice.</p>
<p>Another big difference between the E-Cell and the standard SLS is the  front suspension, which gets an independent multilink setup with  pushrod damper struts. The vertically-arranged dampers in the series SLS  took a hike to make room for additional drive shafts. No word on  timing, but the E-Cell could see a small series production run.</p>

<p>It seems that the Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG has just been forgot about, but Mercedes dont want to let it die so easily. It is expected that a new AMG M-Class range will be out in the next couple of years, but for now Mercedes-Benz has just updated the ML63.</p>
<p>The ML63 has a brand new twin-turbo 5.5 litre V8 which gets you around 544 horsepower. High-powered SUVs and  crossovers aren&#8217;t the most practical of  automotive choice, but its still good to see Mercedes-Benz moving the ML63 forward.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="socialize-in-content" style="float:left;"></div><p>Here is a quick run down of the top 7 new cars im looking forward to seeing in 2010. All these cars were showcased in the 80th International Geneva Motor Show.</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-773" title="Ferrari-599-HY-KERS-550x346" src="http://trickshift.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/Ferrari-599-HY-KERS-550x346.jpg" alt="" width="550" height="346" /></strong></p>
<p><strong>Ferrari 599 HY KERS</strong> &#8211; This Ferrari comes with a green paint job and features the latest Ferrari regenerative braking technology integrated into seven dual clutch transmission and installed  right  below the centre of gravity of the car. This Ferrari 599 comes with a V12 engine and 100 horsepower engine with KERS system.</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-774" title="Koenigsegg-Agera-550x300" src="http://trickshift.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/Koenigsegg-Agera-550x300.jpg" alt="" width="550" height="300" /></strong></p>
<p><strong>Koenigsegg Agera</strong> -  The Koenigsegg Agera has a full carbon fiber and aluminium body, featuring a 4.7 litre V8 engine and can hit 0-100 in under 3.1 seconds. Other sexy features include a set of wheels made to generate a vortex as they suck hot air away from the brakes. With a raw power of 910 hp at over 7000 rpm there is no  telling what  this beast is capable of.</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-775" title="2010-Mercedes-F800-Style-550x361" src="http://trickshift.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/2010-Mercedes-F800-Style-550x361.jpg" alt="" width="550" height="361" /></strong></p>
<p><strong>Mercedes F800 Style</strong> &#8211; This has to be the most sexy five seat sedan I have ever seen. This hybrid provides over 400 bhp of raw power and can reach speeds of over 375 kmph. A 300hp direct injection V6 gas  engine and a 109hp hybrid module allows  the Mercedes to function perfectly</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-776" title="Porsche-918-Spyder-Hybrid-550x388" src="http://trickshift.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/Porsche-918-Spyder-Hybrid-550x388.jpg" alt="" width="550" height="388" /></strong></p>
<p><strong>Porsche 918 Spyder Hybrid</strong> &#8211; Very sexy two door hybrid sports car with a fluid cooled lithium ion  battery that gives it the perfect charge. This Spyder can go from 0-100 kmph in 3.2 seconds with a top speed of 320 kmph. This has to be one of the top sports cars for the richie rich who still want to save the environment.</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-777" title="2010-Lotus-Evora-550x322" src="http://trickshift.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/2010-Lotus-Evora-550x322.jpg" alt="" width="550" height="322" /></strong></p>
<p><strong>Lotus Evora</strong> &#8211; Every motor show has to have a top Lotus, and this time it was the Evora. The Lotus Evora has a 3.5 liter V6 engine, which can go from 0-100 kmph in 5.1 seconds. Apart from offering a top speed of 231kmph this  lightweight sports car  consumes only 8.7 liter of fuel for every 100 km  travelled with a  carbon emission of less than 205 g per km of CO2.</p>
