Suzuki Authentics Concept is genuine but drab

Suzuki Authentics Concept is genuine but drab

Looks can certainly be deceiving. Have a glance at this new Suzuki Authentics concept, for example – we were told that this would, essentially, be a proper sedan version of the new SX4, but our folks on the ground in Shanghai tell us it's actually much larger. Like, bigger than the Kizashi. (Hey, remember the Kizashi?).
Regardless, Suzuki says that the Authentics concept previews a C-segment vehicle for the Chinese market. A good move, too, since that segment has the highest volume in the Chinese market.

Icona Vulcano does a sultry striptease in Shanghai

Icona Vulcano does a sultry striptease in Shanghai

Perhaps Icona didn't get the message that it's safe to reveal the entirety of the Vulcano now that the Shanghai Motor Show is under way, but we'll enjoy the half we can see and admit that we didn't expect to like it as much as we do. There's some Lexus LFA DNA in the face, some Ferrari 599 and F12 Berlinetta in the profile and a backside we've never seen before; the entire package manages a note all its own. At least, with the half we can see.

HTC Desire L Headed For Taiwan

HTC Desire L Headed For Taiwan

Beleaguered smartphone manufacturer HTC is going through some tough times at the moment, and we would like to see them pull through and emerge from whatever crisis that they are going through at the moment stronger than ever before. Perhaps all of the buzz surrounding the HTC One would help lift the company out from the doldrums by the time they report their earnings for this quarter. Well, here we are with the HTC Desire L, which is a new model under the Desire family that will hit Taiwan in time to come.

Facebook Updates Windows Phone App To Fix Issues

Facebook Updates Windows Phone App To Fix Issues

It was earlier today when we brought you word that the Facebook Windows Phone 8 app certainly has issues of its own that it is currently struggling with, where it affected users who ran version 4.2.0.0 of the app, while those who were using the Windows Phone 7.x version 2.7.0.0 of the app were exempt from such headaches. Well, we are pleased to say that the turnaround time taken to "fix" this particular issue has been rather quick, where a latest updated release has enabled it to fix a bug that users have been complaining about.

Google's Q1 raked in $14 billion, but Motorola still leaking money

Google's Q1 raked in $14 billion, but Motorola still leaking money

Google has just announced its operating numbers for the first quarter of 2013. The company beat market expectations, of course, as it was able to pull in about $14 billion in revenue, up 31% year-on-year. Of that, the company was able to pocket about $3.39 billion, a 16% increase year-on-year, which adds to the total of $50.1 billion cash and liquid assets Google has. That's a whole lot of dough coming from a lot of different areas, but where that money isn't coming from is Google's $12.5 billion best friend Motorola Mobility.
