Big and fat and gorgeous – what’s on offer
Geneva Motor Show: born-again car industry moves into the green
The green cars tend to put the emphasis on small, especially the electric cars. The other extreme takes up more space at the show, in every sense. Where to begin! There are the Porsches and Corvettes and Ferraris and Lamborghinis, of course, and the more elegant and sedate if wildly luxurious Buforis and Bugattis. There are also names that appear to be familiar to only a handful of the initiated or extremely wealthy because these are virtually one-of-a-kind cars.
Slightly down-market, old standbys like Aston-Martin and Jaguar have fine models on display.
In the end, commonsense has to give way, at least during the day you’re at the car show, to enjoy what, for a big part of the motoring world, is still what it’s all about, beautifully designed cars.
