In the following years many manufacturers, such as <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/search/label/Chrysler/">Chrysler</a>, Citroen, NSU and Mercedes-Benz, to name but a few, tried to do away with the clutch, torque converter and/or gear level but electronics were still a long way from reaching maturity and the companies didn't persist with the concept. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/11/master-shift-adds-paddle-shifters-keeps.html#more">Read more »</a>

GM’s new full-size trucks underwent more than 6 million miles of durability testing at the Milford Proving Ground, over the deserts and mountains of Nevada and across the frozen flats of Ontario. That’s equivalent to 240 trips around the earth. In addition, the trucks will accumulate more than 7 million real-world miles during final testing, bringing total test miles to more than 13 million. That’s because, as executive chief engineer for full- and mid-size trucks Jeff Luke said, “Don’t let the work boots fool you. Truck customers are among the most discerning and demanding in the business”. <a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-xl9UPDMOjsY/UMsemmaWaKI/AAAAAAAKqgI/5FWasCphQd8/s1600/2014-GMC-Sierra-AllTerrain-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:right; float:right; margin-left:10px; margin-bottom:10px"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-xl9UPDMOjsY/UMsemmaWaKI/AAAAAAAKqgI/5FWasCphQd8/s110/2014-GMC-Sierra-AllTerrain-2.jpg" width="110"></a> Almost two-thirds of the cabin structure, the main rails and key cross members of the frame are made of high-strength steel in order to improve rigidity and keeping weight down, while new shear-style body mounts help absorb body movements for a more relaxed drive. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/12/2014-chevy-silverado-and-gmc-sierra.html#more">Read more »</a>

The 2014 Spark EV is driven by an oil-cooled, permanent magnet motor that according to GM's own words, "produces at least 100 kW", which is equal to 134hp or 136PS, and a massive instantaneous torque of around 400 lb.-ft. (542Nm!) with the coaxial drive unit. Combined with the small footprint of the Spark, this results to a 0-60mph (96km/h) acceleration time less of than eight seconds, always according to GM. <a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_FsHzzjundE/UKVWcgVMaII/AAAAAAAKGBY/8i6NvI-jiaE/s1600/2014-Chevrolet-Spark-EV-12.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:right; float:right; margin-left:10px; margin-bottom:10px"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_FsHzzjundE/UKVWcgVMaII/AAAAAAAKGBY/8i6NvI-jiaE/s200/2014-Chevrolet-Spark-EV-12.jpg" width="110"></a> “When our team set out to develop the <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/search/label/Electric%20Vehicles">propulsion system</a> for Spark EV, we knew we had to provide surprising fun-to-drive acceleration with maximum efficiency,” said Spark EV Chief Engineer Chuck Russell. “What we think customers will enjoy most is how fun Spark EV is to drive; it’s seamless and power is available at every stage of the drive,” Russell added. “This will help us to provide an exciting option for those customers who are looking for an EV that’s as much fun to drive as it is environmentally responsible.” <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/11/pure-electric-2014-chevrolet-spark-ev.html#more">Read more »</a>

With this in mind and after toying around with the idea for a few years, General Motors and Mattel joined forces to build the new 2013 Camaro Hot Wheels Edition, which <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/10/gm-to-launch-real-life-hot-wheels.html">we first told you about</a> over the weekend. “Millions of us grew up playing with Hot Wheels,” said Chris Perry, vice president of Chevrolet Marketing. “Offering a special production model of the Camaro Hot Wheels is an opportunity to bring those memories to life, for kids of all ages.” The production model follows last year's concept and it will make its debut at this week's <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/search/label/SEMA%20Show">2012 SEMA Show in Las Vegas</a>, before it goes on sale in the first quarter of 2013 for a limited production run. <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UlqTdjP-f3g/UI54kh_NV-I/AAAAAAAJwiQ/FA5AuDrNzeE/s1600/2013-Camaro-HotWheels-6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:right; float:right; margin-left:10px; margin-bottom:10px"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UlqTdjP-f3g/UI54kh_NV-I/AAAAAAAJwiQ/FA5AuDrNzeE/s200/2013-Camaro-HotWheels-6.jpg" width="115"></a> “It’s been nearly 20 years since I started designing cars for Hot Wheels and I have yet to drive one home,” said Felix Holst, vice president of creative for the Mattel Wheels Division. “Personally, I can’t wait to open the doors and see the Hot Wheels Camaro sitting in the garage.” <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/10/new-2013-chevrolet-camaro-hot-wheels.html#more">Read more »</a>
