Africa's first underwater hotel room at The Manta Resort opens in Zanzibar

IMAGINE yourself encapsulated within a turquoise blue bubble, watching shoals of colourful reef fish dart around. Welcome to Africa's firstunderwater room in Zanzibar at The Manta Resort.

The floating dwelling, designed by Swedish engineers, is made up of three levels - some above water, and some under it.

Although underwater rooms do exist in places such as the Maldives and Stockholm, this is the first one in Africa, and Pemba is renowned for being a great diving spot with a plethora of sealife found in the surroundings waters.

"After many years of planning, we finally opened The Manta Underwater Room to guests on the 1st November 2013. We opened The Manta Resort in August 2008. We have 16 rooms, and now with the underwater room we have 17," Matthew Saus, said.

"Only six guests have had the chance to stay so far, and the reaction is awe.

"Shoals of silver bait engulf the room with predators lurking in the background. Nights are action packed, especially feeding time when the spotlights are on. We have even had an octopus crawl over one of the windows."

Those lucky enough to snag a night or two in the room have the chance to really immerse themselves in the underwater world.

"I guess the right word for it is privilege, as you certainly do feel privileged to be part of this world," Saus said.

And hey, if you don't mind sealife watching you sleep ... or not sleep ... it could just well be the best room in the world.

First Test: 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG

AMG's engine laboratory in Affalterbach would probably impress NASA's top tinkerers. The impeccable workplace sits adjacent to the building housing the division's famous "one man, one engine" production line. "How's the new turbo four-cylinder coming along?" I bluntly asked a powertrain engineer during my laboratory tour. At the time -- last October -- the engine was a rumor. So too was the car it supposedly would power in the States. The car that would eventually become the Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG. He smiled and looked around like a gossiping schoolboy, then whispered, "You'll be amazed at what's coming: its power, efficiency, and, yes, its sound." He smiled and shot me a thumbs-up. Could a four-cylinder AMG be a real AMG? AMGs are about torque on top of torque with a side of torque. They're dealers of tire destruction. They're autobahn annihilators.



One year later, I got my first crack at the final product, a 355-hp, 332 lb-ft of torque, 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder codenamed M133 that's packed neatly inside the nose of the CLA45 AMG 4MATIC. The division's first engine with fewer than six cylinders is also the most powerful inline-four to ever propel a production car. It's a gem of a mill that's constructed to the same meticulous standards as AMG's mighty V-8s and V-12s, though it's done in Kölleda, Germany. Color me amazed. At just 2250 rpm, every pound-foot is first routed through a newly developed seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, then directed to the brand's 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system tuned for AMG duty. The setup uses a two-part propeller shaft to route torque to the rear wheels via a multi-clutch rear differential when slip or hard cornering is detected. It's a front-wheel-drive car in normal circumstances for fuel economy sake, but can ultimately split torque 50/50 between the front and rear axles. I began questioning the engine's claimed power output as I cruised through some of Virginia's suburbs. For more than 350 horsepower, it's superbly calm. However, instances of powertrain confusion were created by jumping onto the throttle too quickly in fuel-sipping ECO start/stop mode. The gearbox and engine hiccupped, but they usually recovered quickly with a surge of smooth, hefty pull. If the pull wasn't enough, instantaneous -- almost imperceptible -- shifts and beautiful BRAAP BRAAP noises from the quad exhaust clearly indicated that the 45 means performance business. Few turbocharged cars of this caliber possess a gearbox that can match the hustle and silkiness of the CLA's.

I was like, “Oh my god, am I showing too much ass? I don’t have an ass! I don’t have a Brazilian ass. I’m not Brazilian and I’m not 16!” It was thirty million dollars, between the necklace, the two diamonds on the breasts, and then the huge diamond on my … girlfriend, let’s call it my girlfriend. Thirty million dollars! But I thought thirty million dollars would go a little farther!

Modified Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Camaro, SS at 2013 SEMA Show

NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon provided his input on the SS performance sedan concept that rides on a lowered suspension and is fitted with upgraded brakes and a Borla exhaust system. The 415-hp 6.2-liter LS3 V-8 is untouched, but the exterior is customized with a new grille, satin paint, 20-inch rims, and a carbon fiber spoiler. Inside, there are perforated suede seat inserts, a flat-bottom steering wheel, and a pedal kit from Chevrolet Accessories. Chevrolet will show off three examples of the Corvette Stingray, with two inspired by the East and West Coast. First is the Corvette Stingray Convertible Atlantic concept, which gets upgraded floor mats, suede interior surfaces, chrome rims, Fusion Gray headlight housings, and a body kit finished in Carbon Flash Metallic paint. Chevrolet says the concept's modifications are meant to resemble the "details and refinement of a private jet" and some upgrades are available through Chevrolet Accessories. Next is the Corvette Stingray Coupe Pacific concept, what starts life with the Z51 package and Torch Red paint. Mods include satin black wheels and Carbon Flash exterior accents.  The third C7 on display will be the Corvette Stingray Gran Turismo concept, which is essentially a real life version of the car featured in Gran Turismo 6 video game. The extensive list of mods include metallic blue paint with graphics, a carbon fiber body kit, a new front grille, yellow-tinted headlights, a custom flat-bottom steering wheel, and racing harnesses for the front seats. The COPO Camaro returns for 2014 and will retain is super low production run of just 69 units. The hand-built COPO features racing essentials including a roll cage and modified suspension. The car at SEMA is fitted with the supercharged 350 engine, though the 427, and naturally aspirated 350 and 396 engines will still be available.  The new 2014 Camaro Z/28 will be on display and not surprisingly Chevrolet is leaving this car untouched. The Z/28, which recently made headlines thanks to its 7:37.40 lap time on a rain-soaked Nurburgring road course, is powered by a naturally aspirated 505-hp 7.0-liter LS7 V-8. It's also lighter than a Camaro ZL1 thanks to lightweight wheels and a thinner rear-window glass. While the Z/28 is unmodified, the following four Camaros will sport custom bits and items from the Chevrolet Accessories and Chevrolet Performance catalog.  First up is the Chevrolet Performance Garage Camaro concept, which is based on the SS, but gets a mix of parts from the Z/28 and ZL1. Other mods include a ground effects package, graphics, and a helical differential. The Chevrolet Performance Camaro V-8 concept also features Z/28 and ZL1 bits and an even longer list of cosmetic upgrades. In addition to Chevrolet Accessories 45th anniversary wheels, the concept features RS headlights and taillights, blacked-out exterior accents, and custom soft-touch interior trim. The Chevrolet Performance Camaro V-6 concept gains components from its eight-cylinder siblings including the SS' Brembo brake kit and 1LE suspension components. A Borla exhaust system and upgrades from Chevrolet Accessories and Chevrolet Performance complete the mods list. Finally, the Camaro Spring Special Edition is a production-ready package that will soon be available in showrooms. This Camaro features Summit White paint with blue accents (same color theme for the interior), ZL1 spoiler, 21-inch rims, HID headlights, and special floor mats. The Spring Special Edition will be available with a 323-hp V-6 or 400-426-hp V-8 engine.

BMW is preparing plug-in electric vehicles

BMW is preparing plug-in electric vehicles and hybrid as dedicated models like the i3 and i8, and as alternative powertrain versions of its mainstream cars. Ian Robertson, BMW's sales and marketing board director, predicts the i3's range extender engine option will be popular. "It's a comparatively inexpensive option and I think the take will be high," he tells Motor Trend. "Plug-in hybrid will be 15 percent, or more, of the premium segment in 10 years." The range extender consists of a small two-cylinder engine. It doesn't drive the wheels and doesn't add to performance, a contrast to the combustion engine in the i8, which is geared to the wheels. The i8 can use all its power only when the engine is running.  "Mainstream" PHEV sedans would use the ActiveHybrid system now available in the 5 Series, and shortly the 3 and 7 Series, as a base. The system consists of a regular BMW gas engine and eight-speed automatic, with an electric motor sandwiched between the engine and transmission. Software-actuated clutches on either side allow the two sources to energize the car in various combinations. By increasing motor power and battery capacity, BMW has all it needs for a PHEV. "It's no secret that we have the rights to all the i numbers," Robertson says. "No decisions have been made yet as to cars other than the i3 and i8, but this range isn't a one-off." Surely, a range extender would turn a larger car, a notional i5, into an attractive proposition.

The i8 plug-in hybrid 2+2 supercar, which Robertson indicates will cost "more than $100,000 because it's a super sports cars," will use a mid-mounted 1.5-liter turbocharged gas engine driving the rear wheels, with an electric motor for the front wheels. Combined gas and electric engine power output is now confirmed at 349 hp and 405 lb-ft of torque, with a manufacturer's estimated 0-62 mph in less than 5 seconds. Robertson has driven the i8 several times during development, and says the huge engineering task of integrating the two power sources seamlessly is complete. He grins, describing the instant torque: "It really thumps you." The company unveiled another concept of the i3 four-seater that's "90 percent of production," per Robertson. The main change will be the glazed lower portion of the doors. On both the i3 and i8, they'll change to something similar to those on the i8 Spyder concept. The unveiling took place at the world's first dedicated i showroom, in London. BMW will open another in New York within a year, as well as in three more European cities and Tokyo and Shanghai. Robertson estimates fewer than a quarter of regular BMW service shops will be able to handle i models because of the training needed to handle their carbon fiber and high-voltage electronics.

The i cars will offer a mobility package called 360o Electric, which includes access to a mobile charging truck if the battery runs flat. It also bundles installation of a specially designed home charger, premium city charging spots, and smartphone apps for access to such services as swapping for a gas vehicle for specific trips. The aim is to answer an apprehensive buyer's every last FAQ about electric cars.World production of carbon-fiber composite is about 30,000 tons, Robertson continues, much of it in fishing rods. BMW will add to that with these cars. It has acquired a great lead in making large sheets of the stuff, and "that journey hasn't been an easy one." It gives BMW a unique selling proposition.
