The Peel P50 remains the smallest production car ever made. It is among a trove of 47 microcars being sold after they were collected by Edwin and Jean Hammond at their Kent home.
Volkswagen объявил, когда и где прекратит выпуск автомобилей с ДВС
Темпы перехода бренда легковых машин VW на производство исключительно электромобилей будут зависеть от специфики различных регионов мира. Быстрее всего процесс пойдет в Европе.
Немецкий концерн Volkswagen AG, один из двух лидеров мирового автопрома, впервые обнародовал ориентировочный план отказа бренда легковых машин VW от выпуска автомобилей с двигателями внутреннего сгорания (ДВС) и перехода своих 118 заводов по всему миру на производство исключительно электромобилей.

The BMW-Glas 3000 V8’s story is an interesting one to say the least. Back in the 1960’s, BMW acquired fellow carmaker Hans Glas GmbH, and from 1967 to 1968, they produced just 389 units of the 3000 V8. Additionally, it’s one of only 6 (or 7 depending on how you look at it) BMW models never to wear the brand’s iconic kidney grille.
This one is listed for sale on Bring a Trailer, and it has 51,727 miles (83,246 km) on the odometer, 400 of which were covered by the selling dealer. It was said to have been imported to the US after spending some of its life in a German museum, which would partially explain that relatively low mileage. Since it was purchased by the selling dealer in September of last year, it’s had its braking system serviced and carburetor adjusted to prepare it for sale. It also includes spare extra timing belts, gaskets, and ignition components.
One of the few BMWs to never wear a pair of kidney grilles could be yours.
BMW has been around for over a century, and in that time has produced some of the world s most beloved classic cars, such as the E30 M3 and legendary mid-engined M1. Its modern-day offerings such as the BMW M5 CS keep blowing minds, and the company is also forging ahead with a range of electric vehicles, but there are some models that slip through the cracks and are often completely forgotten: enter the 1968 BMW-Glas 3000 V8, a distant forefather to the BMW 6 Series and modern-day 8 Series. This car is currently listed on Bring a Trailer and has people asking whether or not it actually is a real BMW. These ultra-rare Bimmers were built between 1967 and 1968, and only 389 of them were ever built, but without kidney grilles, most would never know.
