Dreams sell when times are hard, which is why people flocked to the movies during Americas Great Depression, and why last week they came in their thousands to the 2009 Geneva motor show. The best and brightest of all the car exhibitions, Geneva always showcases the most desirable machines. Detroit may be famous for muscle cars, and Tokyo for high-tech vehicles, but it's at Geneva that the costliest, most prestigious cars are displayed.
Although this year the wealthy have seen their fortunes diminish, thats unlikely to deter many from snapping up the most tempting models. Aston Martin is confident there are still enough customers with more than £1m apiece to spend on the new limited-edition Aston Martin One-77 (only 77 will be made), and Lamborghini will no doubt shift its new £240,000 Murciélago LP670-4 SV. For the rest of us, though, behind the velvet rope lay fantasy and futurism aplenty to admire. GM pinned its hopes on consumers embracing the 176mpg electric car — it wants to have its new Vauxhall Ampera in European showrooms by 2011 — while Volkswagen presented a new-generation Polo, its styling clearly influenced by the sporty Scirocco coupé. Alfa Romeo and Renault responded to Fords Focus RS with their own fast and furious hatchbacks, the Mito GTA and Mégane Coupé RS respectively, and Citroën introduced the DS, a car aimed at buyers in the growing premium small-car sector.
Then there was the worlds cheapest car, the Tata Nano, shown off ahead of its European launch in 2011. If economies continue to deteriorate, the Nano may well be the true car of the future.
