2014 Mercedes S-Class
Merc’s grandest four-door gets a big update with a brand new S-Class for the 2014 model year. New to the S-Class is a pair of 12.3 screens that display the instrument cluster and infotainment, an interior dripping in LEDs (300 to be exact), and they’ve even created an LED brake light system that dims at night so its not beaming a beacon of red light into the driver behind you. Other bleeding edge features include “Magic Body Control” that uses stereo cameras to read the road and adjust the suspension accordingly, a comprehensive front and rear seat massage system, an “Air Balance” package that filters the air pumps your choice of five scents into the cabin, and improved versions of the company’s Driver Assist programs. The car will launch this fall with a V8-powered, 449 hp S550 model and a S550 4Matic to follow in the months after. Mercedes

Porsche 918 Spyder
HARD!!! Porsche has let loose more official details on the long awaited 918 Spyder and its impressive Hybrid drive system. The car uses technology taken straight from their racing division including a monocoque load-bearing structure made of carbon-fibre reinforced polymer for stiffness and it contributes to the car’s speedy, athletic build. The car will feature five driving modes from a purely electric “E-Power” mode that’ll get you up to 18 miles on a battery power alone to Race Hybrid mode that unleashes the full performance potential of the 918. All that power comes from a 4.6L, 608 hp V8 and a hybrid module that contains a 115 kW electric motor. Other details include a plug-in charging system, a new cockpit design that features a multi-touch control panel, and a optional Weissach performance package that adds special colorways and designs based on historic Porsche race cars and visible carbon components, magnesium wheels, an optional film-coating instead of paint, six-point seat belts, and a reduction in gross weight.

Google Play Music: All Access – Google’s Streaming Music Service
Google launched a new music streaming service called Google Play Music: All Access at the Google I/O developer conference earlier today. For $9.99 USD a month, users of All Access will be able to listen to “millions of tracks” in the Google Play store in addition to their own personal music libraries. “We set out to build a music service that doesn’t just give you access to great music, but guides you to the music you want to hear. Google Play Music: All Access is a uniquely Google approach to a subscription music service,” said Google engineering director Chris Yerga. All Access features expert-curated playlists that subscribers can access and add to their own libraries or create “radio stations.” U.S. subscribers will get a 30-day free trial—if you sign up for the free trial before July 30, the monthly subscription price drops to $7.99 USD. Google Play Music: All Access is available for Android-based smartphones and tablets, and there’s also a Web browser version for laptops and desktops.
