This brand new title in the definitive Car Design Yearbook series features all the new cars launched worldwide from April 2007 to March 2008. Also included are profiles of the industry’s leading designers, a full technical glossary and a list of all the motor shows in the year ahead. For the seventh yearbook, Stephen Newbury and Tony Lewin consider ‘intelligent’ vehicle-sensing technologies that interact with the driver and the environment, such as collision-avoidance systems, and explore the design methods that India’s Tata Motors has employed to achieve its 100,000 rupee (£1275) Nano car.

My son is majoring in car design and vehicle research. He loves this particular series of books. I give him one every year. This book gives him and my husband a great look at the whole design and manufacturing process.

This review is from: The Car Design Yearbook 7: The Definitive Annual Guide to All New Concept and Production Cars Worldwide (Car Design Yearbook: The Definitive Annual ... New Concept and Production Cars Worldwide) (Hardcover)
I have the entire series (this being volume 7) and have been very pleased. The production, graphics, etc. are 1st class. The only criticism I have is that, although it states that it is "The definitive guide to all new concept and production cars launched worldwide from 2007 to 2008", it does not include any cars designed/produced in China.
