| New Jersey Serious About Ticketing Handheld Talking, Texting Posted: 08 Mar 2010 11:54 AM PST  When New Jersey tells you not to use a handheld cellphone to talk or text while driving, they mean it. In the 23 months since New Jersey's ban of talking or texting on handheld cellphones, police have written 224,725 citations, according to the NJ Star-Ledger—adding up to about four percent of the state's total moving violations, not counting...

| Video: Mercedes Knows Its Target Market, S400 Hybrid Debuts During Oscar Broadcast Posted: 08 Mar 2010 09:20 AM PST  Hyundai was the big kahuna sponsoring last night's Oscar broadcast, but in a shocking upset, Mercedes may have walked off with the trophy for best performance by an automaker. Sure, the ad announcing the debut of the 2010 Mercedes-Benz S400 hybrid was bland, and it didn't say much of anything about the car, but it showed beyond a shadow of a doubt...

| Ask TCC: What's With the Seats in My 2007 Jeep Commander? Posted: 08 Mar 2010 09:00 AM PST  The 2007 Jeep Commander can be one luxurious, well-equipped, and comfortable SUV. In our review of the current 2010 Commander, we praise its front seats for support and space. At least one owner we know is having problems with their Commander. TheCarConnection reader Bob Schumann wrote to Ask TCC, wondering if it's it possible to get a vehicle...

| Cadillac Returns To Europe, But With Modest Expectations Posted: 08 Mar 2010 08:18 AM PST  The past 18 months or so haven't been easy for General Motors, here or abroad. In Europe, GM endured much tense talk about its Opel brand, and the Kroymans Group fell prey to the global economic meltdown, leaving GM without a European distributor in over the half the markets it serviced. Now, a new company called Cadillac Europe has been created...

| Report: Mercedes Planning B-Class, Small SUV For U.S. Posted: 08 Mar 2010 08:04 AM PST  Fans of Mercedes-Benz know that while the U.S. sees only midsize-and-up vehicles from the brand, it sells a full range of cars, including compacts, in Europe. But that may be set to change in the next year or two, as a report claims Mercedes is working on a B-Class hatchback and a compact SUV for American sale. The argument for compact premium...

| 2010 BMW 7-Series – 750i – 750Li – 760Li – ActiveHybrid 7 Bottom Line Posted: 08 Mar 2010 05:25 AM PST  The 2010 BMW 7-Series has come in from the cold. Last year brought the newest edition of the bigger Bimmer-and in its fifth generation, the luxury sedan got a style-ectomy that reversed the awkward proportions and surfaces of the 2002-2008 model. The quintessential BMW driving feel remains intact, despite a horde of new electronic interventions...

| 2010 Porsche 911 – Carrera – 4S - Turbo – Targa - Cabriolet Bottom Line Posted: 08 Mar 2010 05:15 AM PST  Since time immemorial-or was it the Sixties? Who can remember?-the Porsche 911 has been the outline for sports cars with its iconic teardrop shape and its iconoclastic handling. Never better than it is now, the 2010 Porsche 911 once again raises its own bar by dropping in a new Turbo model with faultless handling and urgent, propulsive boxer...

| 2010 Mercury Milan – Milan Hybrid Bottom Line Posted: 08 Mar 2010 03:22 AM PST  Both restyled and extensively refreshed with new powertrains, the 2010 Mercury Milan and Milan Hybrid are remarkably good mid-size sedans that should be better known than they are. Although they're mechanically identical to the Ford Fusion and Fusion Hybrid models, the Milan's cleaner exterior and more stylish interior set it apart, taking it a...

| 2010 Toyota Highlander – Highlander Hybrid Bottom Line Posted: 08 Mar 2010 03:05 AM PST  The Toyota Highlander was completely redesigned for 2008. In the process, it grew a full size larger than the previous version, from compact to mid-size, adding an optional third-row seat in the process. It's a popular family crossover, with the unusual feature of an available hybrid model, which only the compact Ford Escape and the luxury Lexus...
