Gumpert Apollo Sport


The Gumpert Apollo Sport races from 0 to 60 in three seconds flat. The two-seater (note the position of the driver) is powered by an 8-cylinder engine that revs up to 800 hp.

Lamborghini Gallardo


Lamborghini introduces a new version of the Gallardo that includes a standard robotized mechanical gearbox, enabling fast gear shifting without the driver removing their hands from the steering wheel. The Italian carmaker claims the ‘Superleggera’ model has the fastest acceleration in its class, going from 0 to 62 mph in about 3.8 seconds–just under the Ferrari 430 F1’s 4.0 secs.

The car can be ordered in March but the number sold will be limited.

Rolls-Royce Phanton Drophead Coupe


The Rolls-Royce Phanton Drophead Coupe makes its European debut in Geneva. But don’t count on getting one of the two-door, four-seat convertibles this year as they are sold out–and they have few openings still available for 2008. The Phantom Drophead Couple offers a hand-brushed steel hood and rear teak deck.

KTM X-Bow


Motorcycle maker KTM built its first car, the exotic X-Bow concept which is on display at the Geneva auto show. The lightweight body is made of carbon fiber.

The BeON runs on a hybrid thermal-electric engine with a hydraulic transmission system within each wheel.
