VID of the Day: Oops, 14 year old crashed his dad's brand new Shelby GT500

The second best thing to buying a new car is bringing it home, but I'm sure Dad regretted this act after his 14 year old son accidentally crashed it into the garage. Dad didn't even get a chance to peel the purchase sticker price off the window when his kid turned his brand new, 500Hp Mustang from cool to tool in 2 seconds flat... LOL! Via: Jalopnik

SCOOP: Bentley Havana Coupe

Bentley's upcoming coupe version of the Azure Convertible has been caught red handed during a typical test run. Car magazine, which posted the spy pic has info that the super luxurious coupe which will be named Havana will make its first appearance at next years Geneva Motor Show with sales commencing in 2008

While nothings sure yet, I don't think we'll have any surprises under the hood with the Havana receiving the same twin-turbocharged, 6,75-litre V8 engine as the Azure (450bhp / 336Kw & 875Nm / 645lb ft of torque). Via: Car

Suzuki MIO: Fuel-Cell powered wheel chair!

Surprise, surprise! When it comes to fuel cell powered vehicles, everyone's mind goes straight to the automobile sector, but that's not the case here. Suzuki, who as we learned, is one of the largest manufacturers in the powered wheelchair market, is applying this promising technology to a prototype wheelchair that goes by the name MIO.

The MIO features a fuel cell that uses methanol as a fuel source to generate hydrogen and therefore electricity. Its tank holds 4 litres of methanol, enough to provide MIO with a range of approximately 40km / 25 miles. A large capacity Li-ion secondary battery acts as a store for the electricity generated and a back up source of power.

Other features of the compact sized MIO (1.200 mm long, 650 mm wide and 1.000 mm tall) include armrests that double up as safety barriers, ergonomic handlebars and a seat that has mesh-type fabric for good aeration and improved springing. While at this stage, the MIO remains just a prototype, we're still going to give Suzuki a big bravo.
