| Posted: 15 Jun 2010 04:39 PM PDT  The 2010 Lincoln Navigator L is virtually the same as the Navigator in most respects, but it's 14.7 inches longer than the standard model. That translates into a little more space for the second and third rows, a little more cargo space behind the third row, and longer rear doors with easier access to the third row. There's 24.5 cubic feet of...

| Posted: 15 Jun 2010 04:37 PM PDT  The 2010 IS 350C is very closely related to the IS 250C convertible, and both vehicles look much the same from the outside, but instead of the 250C's 204-horsepower, 2.5-liter V-6 the IS 350C gets a 306-hp, 3.5-liter V-6. The difference between the two is quite pronounced, as the IS 250C is saddled with extra weight compared to the sedan, and it...

| Posted: 15 Jun 2010 04:35 PM PDT  The Lexus IS F is a high-performance version of the IS sport sedan. It was the first production model to wear the brand's "F" designation, heralding more exclusive vehicles offering track-ready performance. The IS F lacks a manual-transmission option and all-wheel drive, but in every other regard it's equal to the BMW M3, the Mercedes-Benz C63, or...

| Posted: 15 Jun 2010 04:34 PM PDT  The Lexus IS 250 sedan is virtually indistinguishable from the IS 350 sedan, with the most significant difference found under the hood and out on the open road. While the Lexus IS 350 sedan gets a 306-horsepower, 3.5-liter V-6 that gives this compact sport sedan very strong acceleration, the IS 250 has quite a different, understated...

| 2010 Bentley Continental Supersports Posted: 15 Jun 2010 04:30 PM PDT  The Supersports is a purpose-build performance version of the Bentley Continental, with a number of high-performance alterations and improvements even though the Continental coupe's exclusive ultraluxury package remains the much the same. The Continental Supersports rides about a half-inch lower than other Continentals. It gets giant, 20-inch...

| Posted: 14 Jun 2010 08:10 PM PDT  Introduced later in the 2010 model year, the Kia Forte Koup follows the same mechanical underpinnings as the 2010 Kia Forte sedan in most respects, but it's lower and shorter and boasts completely different sheetmetal. Just like the sedan, the Koup comes in EX and SX models that come with a 156-hp, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, as well as an SX...

| Posted: 14 Jun 2010 08:09 PM PDT  The Infiniti M sedans, sold as the M35 and M45, are the largest luxury sedans from Nissan's luxury brand. That said, they have more of a focus on technology and sporty driving response than outright cushy comfort. The M35 and M45 exude luxury in a way the smaller G37 does not; it's as plush as the E-Class or 5-Series. While the 2010 Infiniti M35...

| Posted: 14 Jun 2010 08:07 PM PDT  The Infiniti G37 Convertible has the same running gear and most of the same styling as the G37 Coupe, but with a clever folding hardtop. Thanks to thinner pillars and a little more oomph to its rear-end styling—especially where the top resides—that together gives it a voluptuousness, it's the best-looking of the folding hardtop convertibles. The...
 |
| Posted: 14 Jun 2010 08:06 PM PDT  The 2010 Hyundai Elantra Touring shares the same basic platform and mechanicals as the Elantra sedan. But it's quiet a different vehicle in some respects, with a sportier appearance inside and out and a more premium European-influenced look and feel. Just as in the sedan, a 138-horsepower, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine is quite gutsy whether you...

| Posted: 14 Jun 2010 08:05 PM PDT  The Hummer H3T pickup has many of the same features—as well as packaging from the front seats forward—as the Hummer H3 sport-utility wagon. At their best standing still, the Hummer H3 and H3T are the picture of unadulterated swagger. They have less in common with the Schwarzenegger-style H1 military vehicle than they do with GM's own Chevy...
 |
| Posted: 14 Jun 2010 05:08 PM PDT  The Escalade is virtually unbeatable for interior space, with lots of elbow and shoulder room, and the ESV makes the most of it. Compared to the standard-length Escalade, the ESV is about 20 inches longer, and more of its 14-inch-longer wheelbase goes straight to legroom in the second and third rows. On the inside, the Escalade is virtually...
 |
| Posted: 14 Jun 2010 05:07 PM PDT  The 2010 Honda Civic Coupe is closely related to the 2010 Honda Civic Sedan. Mechanically they're nearly identical, and the Civic Coupe closely resembles the Civic Sedan from the front, though from the side it has a completely different profile. A couple of inches shorter in wheelbase, the Civic Coupe has a slightly more arched roofline and rear...
 |
| Posted: 14 Jun 2010 05:05 PM PDT  The 2010 Honda Accord Coupe is very closely related to the Honda Accord Sedan and is thus covered together with the Accord Sedan under a single review. The coupe has styling that's bolder, with a smoother downward curve of its roof, more sculpted flanks, and what appear to be slightly different proportions. However the Coupe is just a couple of...
 |
| Posted: 14 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT  The 2010 BMW X6 M is the same in many respects as the 2010 BMW X6, but it substitutes a brawny 555-horsepower, twin-turbo V-8 for the naturally aspirated six- or eight-cylinder engines (or hybrid powertrain) that are included in the X6. It has standard all-wheel drive along with a list of upgrades that make it fit for weekend track outings...
 |
| Posted: 14 Jun 2010 04:56 PM PDT  The 2010 BMW X5 M is a high-performance version of the X5 utility vehicle. With a 555-horsepower, twin-turbocharged V-8, it's the sports car of utility vehicles—taking on the Porsche Cayenne—yet it still has a 6,600-pound tow rating and nearly all the other practical aspects of the other gasoline and diesel X5 models. Despite its height, the X5...
