| 2014 Jaguar F-Type First Drive: Video Posted: 16 Apr 2013 05:01 PM PDT  After nearly 40 years of building sedans and grand tourers, Jaguar is finally back in the sports car business with the 2014 F-Type. So what's it like? That's exactly the question our sister site, Motor Authority, set out to answer last week in the hills surrounding Pamplona, Spain. Can the F-Type live up to its legacy, and overcome the four-decade... |
| Posted: 16 Apr 2013 02:35 PM PDT  The U.S. market for urban minicars consisted for several years of a single entry, but now the Scion iQ has joined the Smart ForTwo in the category. In most ways, it's much better; although in a market where the Cadillac Escalade is still revered, that's not any assurance of success. The iQ is known elsewhere in the world as the Toyota iQ and is... |
| Posted: 16 Apr 2013 02:16 PM PDT  The Nissan Cube was part of a cohort of "tall box" small cars, launched in the middle part of the last decade, and including some unusual styles. But while models like the Kia Soul and Scion xB have found a stronger following for their frugal practicality, the Nissan Cube is arguably the quirkiest of all of them. An economical four-cylinder... |
| Posted: 16 Apr 2013 01:47 PM PDT  The Mitsubishi Outlander is exactly what's rapidly catching on as the family car for cost-conscious households: a compact crossover vehicle that offers a mix of tall-wagon and SUV attributes—and in some versions, three rows of seating. The Outlander is now in its third generation in the U.S., with an all-new version soon out for 2014, and it... |
| Posted: 16 Apr 2013 01:13 PM PDT  The Mitsubishi Lancer is the brand's family of family of entry-level small cars. Over the years, it's consisted of four-door sedans, as well as Sportback hatchbacks and wagons. The Lancer consists of models that, for the most part, are economical yet a bit sportier in appearance, and it's typically had a more lively driving character than the... |
| Posted: 16 Apr 2013 09:59 AM PDT  Dramatically styled, hyper-luxurious, and exclusive in a way more mainstream brands can't be, the Aston Martin DB9 is a two-door, four-seat luxury coupe with few real rivals on the market. The DB9 is still the grand-touring leader of a lineup that includes the two-seat Vantage, the four-door Rapide, and the carbon-fiber-bodied Vanquish sports car... |
| Posted: 16 Apr 2013 09:56 AM PDT  The Mercedes-Benz S-Class is one of the best-known luxury cars around the world. The German automaker's flagship vehicle, now that the Maybach brand is gone, the S-Class has been sold as a four-door and as a two-door coupe, though for the 2013 model year it's exclusively sold as a sedan. It's due for a complete redesign for the 2014 model year, to... |
| Posted: 16 Apr 2013 09:51 AM PDT  The Mitsubishi i-MiEV is a subcompact hatchback, and the Japanese automaker's only electric car offered for sale in the U.S. A relative unknown when it was new in 2012, the five-door is smaller than a MINI Cooper, with batteries and motors that provide 62 miles of driving range. Less than $30,000 at launch before incentives, the i-MiEV was the... |
| Posted: 16 Apr 2013 09:44 AM PDT  The Subaru Tribeca is a three-row, seven-seat crossover vehicle, but it's not one you might know of off-hand. It's been on the road since 2006, and from launch, the most expensive Subaru has been one of its slowest-selling vehicles. It offers Subaru-loving families a reasonable alternative to the popular five-seat Forester and Outback, but... |
| Infiniti JX / QX60 Six-Month Road Test: Our Own Personal Assistant Posted: 16 Apr 2013 09:28 AM PDT  A personal assistant may sound like a luxury afforded only to one-name celebrities and self-styled Trumps in the making. But the Web can do almost anything a good handler can do--even the "personal" part, in the case of Infiniti Personal Assistant. A concierge-styled service, Infiniti Personal Assistant comes with every one of the brand's new... |
| Black Box Recorders: Groundbreaking Safety Devices Or The End Of Privacy? Posted: 16 Apr 2013 08:44 AM PDT  We're all familiar with event data recorders -- or as they're more commonly known, "black boxes". EDRs are standard equipment on airplanes, and any time there's a mishap, news programs are full of journalists making guesses about what the recorders will reveal. If you're a regular reader of this blog, you know that EDRs are coming to cars, too. In... |
| Posted: 16 Apr 2013 08:36 AM PDT  The Audi Q5 luxury crossover seats up to five passengers. Grown from the Audi A4 platform, the Q5 fits in the mid-size crossover class, competing against luxury alternatives like the BMW X3, Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, Volvo XC60, Mercedes-Benz GLK, and Cadillac SRX. See our 2013 Audi Q5 page for more information, including fuel economy ratings... |
| Tesla Model S Ruins Other Cars, Tata Nano Image Change: Today's Car News Posted: 16 Apr 2013 06:26 AM PDT  Today at The Car Connection, we spied the 2014 Subaru WRX STI and compared the Honda Odyssey to the Nissan Quest. The ordering guide for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray was released and Ford's planning to feed consumers video snacks. All this and more in today's car news, right here on The Car Connection. The next generation Mercedes-Benz C... |
| Posted: 15 Apr 2013 10:00 PM PDT  Audi's Q7 large luxury crossover seats up to seven passengers. Launched to the market for the 2007 model year, the Q7 remains largely unchanged since. With the Q7, Audi gained a bigger companion to its Avant wagon models, one with more all-weather capability. The Q7 shares those traits with the vehicles that share its platform--the Porsche Cayenne... |
