Audi shows off illuminated floor mats at Las Vegas Show

Audi have unveiled a brand new optional feature for their vehicle interiors at the recent Speciality Equipment Manufacturers Association (SEMA) Show is Las Vegas.

The illuminated floor mats are lit up with special LED lighting and each mat can be customized to the customer’s requirements. Audi owners will have the chance to choose the colour, graphics and materials used on the new breed of glowing floor mats.

Car manufacturers are striving to come up with new ideas to make their interiors stand out from the crowd. One of the bosses of the After Sales department at Audi say the introduction of the new illuminated floor mats is in reaction to the “high expectations” of their customers for a top specification finish on their new Audi.

The mats are illuminated with special LED lighting which doesn’t give off heat. It is hoped the after sales feature will add an extra dimension to the Audi interior as well an additional ambient lighting facility.

The illuminated mats are an after sales component which will be available through Audi dealers in North America only initially.

As well as the light-up floor mats, Audi also revealed another exciting new feature at the Las Vegas SEMA Show. Audi have created a wireless device which allows passengers to charge up mobile devices such as iPods and iPhones while on the move.

Rolls Royce car rally to mark centenary of co-founder’s death

A vintage Rolls Royce Car rally and a statue unveiling was held this week in Manchester to mark 100 years since the death of one of the luxury car maker’s founders, Charles Rolls.

The Midland Hotel in Manchester was at the centre of the event as it is renowned for being the birthplace of Rolls Royce after a meeting between the firm’s two founders, Charles Rolls and Henry Royce, in 1904.

The pair set up a partnership during this historic meeting, however the joint venture was cut short just six years later after Charles Rolls died tragically in a air crash in 1910 at the age of 32.

However Rolls’ name lived on in the car brand he co-created alongside Royce. The company has since produced over 30 models, won numerous awards, and become renowned as one of the world’s most luxurious car manufacturers.

A fleet of pristine classic and modern Rolls Royce models were lined up outside of the Midland Hotel in Manchester City Centre as part of the centenary event. A bronze statue of Charles Rolls was presented to the hotel to symbolise the venue’s role in the birth of the iconic car brand.

Members of the Rolls Royce Enthusiasts Club turned out for the occasion and took part in a classic Rolls Royce car rally which ran through Manchester city centre.

The Chauffeur-Lite service is a growing trend in Orange County

The new Chauffeur-Lite service is proving a big hit with by social customers and business clientele in Orange County in the US.

The yourcarourdriver.com service offers private hire customers in the South California area the opportunity to acquire chauffeur driven transportation at a fraction of the cost. The service works in much the same way as a taxi, whereby on-call chauffeurs await a call and travel to customer’s collection point, but they are then chauffeured in their own vehicle as opposed to a limo owned by the company.

The practice enables yourcarourdriver.com to offer ultra low rates for chauffeur hire services with rates starting from $30 per hour for a driver, although a minimum hire period of 3 hours does apply on most nights.

The chauffeur programme is certainly proving popular with the people of Orange County as yourcarourdriver.com has reportedly doubled its revenue in the last 12 months. Chauffeur-Lite offers a more affordable private hire option compared to the traditional chauffeur and limo hire package which is particularly appealing during this time of economic uncertainty.

Yourcarourdriver.com also believes a tightening on drink drive laws have also a knock-on effect on their business as fewer people are tempted to risk driving after a glass or two of wine, and so instead, opt for the sensible option of a chauffeur on their nights out.
