If there’s anything the French hate more than gas-guzzling Family Trucksters, it’s bad skin. It is therefore with much amusement but little surprise that we learned the interior Renault’s Zoe Z.E. electric car concept was designed with help from cosmetics manufacturer Biotherm.
Hinting at a production vehicle that officially debuts in 2012, we first saw the Zoe Z.E. at the Frankfurt auto show earlier this year. It’s hard to miss, since it’s a 13-foot-long bubble with 20-inch rims and gullwing doors. That exterior is coated in a thick polyurethane gel that protects it from minor scrapes and bruises — much like a good foundation masks crow’s feet and laugh lines.
Renault says the Zoe is ideal “for men and women who want to take care of the environment while taking care of themselves – even behind the wheel.” Since unsightly blemishes and wrinkles are as much an anathema to French sensibilities as Velveeta and Wonderbread, the automaker made the interior a spa-like experience.
On January 22, 2010, the JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa will welcome its first guests. As a special incentive, the resort is offering a Special Introductory Rate starting at $149 per night or $288 including breakfast and golf at the TPC San Antonio.
For those who need a winter recharge, the Resort's 26,000 square-foot Lantana Spa will offer 30 treatment rooms, including two couple's treatment suites and two outdoor private treatment rooms. A complete fitness center and movement studio will feature the latest in cardio-training equipment, free weights andstationary weight training equipment as well as yoga and other fitness classes. Between treatments, guests will enjoy the peaceful serenity of the spa's heated, lagoon-like pool, healthy refreshments at the Replenish Spa Bistro or finding the perfect indulgence at the spa's boutique.
Perched atop prestigious Nob Hill, in San Francisco, California, the elegant Huntington Hotel overlooks charming Huntington Park, stately Grace Cathedral and the historic Flood Mansion.
