The fact that all the worlds "models" look like they need "guns to their heads during at a 24hr buffet" says insecurity is always in.

Optima raises bar on fuel economy

NANAIMO, B.C. -- North America's midsize sedan segment is a veritable buffet of competitive vehicles, but the midsize hybrid sedan class is a pie off to the side being enjoyed by only a few manufacturers. Kia knows this, and it's ready to pick up a fork and dig in with its new 2012 Optima Hybrid.

The Optima Hybrid follows in the footsteps of the redesigned and renamed 2011 Optima, which was sold as the Magentis in Canada up until the 2010 model year. Whereas Magentis always did its best to blend into a crowd, Optima reeks of confidence.

As high-tech as the non-hybrid model looks, the hybrid version adds even more snazzy exterior highlights to the mix, including new aluminum alloy wheels, LED taillamps, side mouldings and front and rear fascias.

The Optima Hybrid's drivetrain uses a tweaked version of the 2.4-litre engine found in the Optima EX and LX models, in combination with an electric motor. This setup gives Kia's entry more horsepower than all its competitors (except for the Sonata, whose powertrain is identical), and torque that's about on-par.

While news of Karen Elson's design collaboration with Nine West and Pete Doherty's mini-collection with The Kooples hit the internet, the team at Chanel was busily prepping to debut yet another Karl Lagerfeld-directed short film in the South of France. Gone are the days of picking a profession; now models can be designers, because designers are directors, and well, everyone is a celebrity. Once upon a time Le Karl in question ran a crossover collection with H&M. It was special - nearly unprecedented - and high-street girls the world over happily stood in line for a $19 t-shirt by the man behind Chanel. Today these designer collaborations are a dime a dozen. Vivienne Westwood for Melissa, Kate Moss for Topshop, Rachel Bilson for DKNY Jeans, just to name a few, and now add Karen Elson for Nine West and Pete Doherty for The Kooples to the growing list....
