Skoda has announced it will offer zero per cent interest plans on its range of cars. Deals start at £69 per month for the Citigo supermini, while the new Octavia is available for £149 per month. The offers are based on a PCP (Personal Contract Purchase), and benefit from three years' free servicing. 

Triple F1 world champion Sebastian Vettel has taken delivery of his new company car, an Infiniti FX Vettel Edition, on the eve of his 26th birthday. The special edition, which was delivered to his home in Switzerland, is limited to a run of 150 cars.

Honda has announced a new trim level for its Jazz supermini. The ES Plus replaces the ES model and includes alloy wheels, cruise control and privacy glass as standard. With the 1.4 i-VTEC engine, it will be available from £14,995.

GM and Honda are to collaborate on fuel cell systems and hydrogen storage technologies. While Honda plans to launch its second-generation fuel cell car in the USA and Japan in 2015, GM is yet to announce any hydrogen-fuelled models.
