China's Biggest Auto Show

Motor industry executives from around the world have gathered for this week's Shanghai Auto Show. Porsche kicked off the show on Sunday night by unveiling the Panamera, the German automaker's first foray into the luxury sedan segment. It said its decision to reveal the vehicle in China signals the rising importance of the country's car market.

Like the company's Cayenne SUV, the new four-door Panamera will be built at Porsche's plant in Leipzig, Germany. It will be entering the market in Europe, South America and parts of Asia in September 2009, in North America and Australia in October, and in China in early 2010.

The Panamera, which cost 1 billion euros (£890 million) to develop and is the carmaker’s first four-person sedan, will compete with Daimler AG’s Mercedes-Benz CLS and Fiat SpA’s Maserati Quattroporte.

Jaguar plans to unveil an XJ sedan model in July, marking the first introduction of an entirely new car since Tata Motors of India bought the British luxury carmaker from Ford. Sales of Tata Motors' Jaguar cars in China rose 60 percent from a year earlier to 352 units in the first quarter

Chinese investors are negotiating to buy part of German car firm Daimler, the head of the crisis-hit company reportedly said on the sidelines of the Shanghai auto show. "We have had contacts with potential investors in China and these negotiations are not finished," the chief executive of Daimler, Dieter Zetsche, was quoted as saying by the Handelsblatt business daily.

China's up-and-coming carmakers unveiled a smorgasbord of new vehicles at the Shanghai auto show, from compacts and electric vehicles to the biggest, brassiest SUVs and luxury sedans.

Spiral Wonder Of Helix

Unique ... the Helix Hotel in Abu Dhabi is a unique development that won't have floors but will be built in a spiral shape. The hotel, which will float into the Persian Gulf, will maximise natural resources such as the sun, wind and ocean water.

Ideal location ... the hotel rests in the bay, partially floating in the water and adjacent to the serpentine Sheik Zayed Bridge which is currently under construction.

Spacious ... the hotel will contain 208 rooms, with interior temperatures managed by a cascading ocean-fed waterfall.

Changing ... the floor constantly shifts in width and pitch as it rises to the top floor, keeping public spaces always in flux.

Facilities ... it has lounges, cafes, a luxury indoor-outdoor health spa and an upper pool deck.

Unique urban world ... no two rooms positioned across from each other have exact views to the other side .

Sight for sore eyes ... a simple and spacious interior gives way to ocean views .

Swirling ... the design will make for good exercise .

Solid ground ... the running track is the only moment where the ramping ceases and a flat surface prevails.

Breathtaking ... the stunning location.

Dramatic sunset ... a hotel like no other ..
