The Citroen C3 has officially landed in Australia, with the single-variant range to kick off from $23,490 before on-road costs.

Local details for the Lamborghini Urus have been announced this week, with the new SUV to be priced from $390,000 before on-road costs in Australia.
Key specifications include the 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 living under the bonnet, developing a healthy 478kW of power and 850Nm of torque.
All that grunt is channeled through an all-wheel drive system with active torque vectoring via an eight-speed automatic transmission.
The next-generation Volkswagen Touareg has been teased again this week, in a new set of images and a video showcasing the nameplate's 15-year history.

Goodyear has used the Geneva motor show to unveil a prototype tyre developed specifically for use with electric vehicles.

Why? Instant torque from the electric motors and extra weight from the batteries, apparently.
