| Posted: 01 Jul 2010 03:26 PM PDT  The Basics: The 2011 Ford Mustang looks virtually the same as last year's model, but new engines and other improvements make it a better drive—and better equipped—in just about every way. With either the all-new 412-hp V-8 in the GT or the new 305-hp, 3.7-liter V-6 in the base models, it's both faster and more fuel-efficient. Highway fuel economy...

| Want to Buy a 2011 Chevrolet Volt? More Details, Dealer Info Posted: 01 Jul 2010 01:15 PM PDT  Less than six months from now, the first 2011 Chevrolet Volt extended-range electric vehicles will be sold by dealers in selected launch markets. Today, General Motors showed a few more cards, releasing news in various presentations on additional early markets, production numbers, and answering questions from interested buyers in an afternoon...

| 2012 Range Rover Evoque Unveiled At Kensington Palace Posted: 01 Jul 2010 12:00 PM PDT  The production version of the LRX is out from under the covers, and it's called the Evoque. While the name has changed, the look hasn't--this little compact Range Rover is the spitting image of the concept vehicle, seen here in its first official image. Billed as the lightest, most fuel-efficient Range Rover ever, the Evoque will sport four-wheel...

| Video: Potential 2011 Hyundai Sonata Steering Issue Scares Owner Posted: 01 Jul 2010 09:00 AM PDT  We like the 2011 Hyundai Sonata. Quite a lot, really--and that's before we even start talking about the 2.0T turbocharged model or the hybrid. But there's at least one person that doesn't like the Sonata--so much so that they've sold it back to Hyundai and vowed never to drive one again. Why? Because the steering wheel in her car is possessed, or...

| Posted: 01 Jul 2010 08:00 AM PDT  Planning a roadtrip over the long holiday weekend? Here are some things to consider: 1. Are there enough things to do during the day and at night? ("Things" being historic tours, napping, or bikini contests, depending on your point of view.) 2. Are there ample activities for kids? (This is important whether or not you have children.) 3. What's the...

| Beijing, Mexico City Have Most Painful Commutes for Drivers Posted: 01 Jul 2010 07:49 AM PDT  Think traffic is bad? IBM says it's worse than you think--and points to Beijing for the world's worst commuter times. The technology titans have compiled a "Commuter Pain" in the U.S. for two years, but this year decided to go global, as the company positions itself as a leader in anti-congestion technology. The first international study shows...

| High Gear on FoxCarReport: Chevy Volt, Grand Cherokee and More Posted: 01 Jul 2010 07:19 AM PDT  High Gear Media is live on the Web, on the Fox Car Report today. This afternoon, I'll be joining FCR host Gary Gastelu for a satellite Webcast chat about the latest developments in the happy saga of the Chevy--er, 2011 Chevrolet Volt as GM announces it's adding New York and Austin to the list of early Volt adopters. We'll also be talking about...

| Do You Text And Drive? Your Doctor Might Want To Know Posted: 01 Jul 2010 07:04 AM PDT  Texting while driving: It's a known vice; it endangers the welfare of others; and now your doctor might try to talk to you about it. In the last issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, Amy M. Ship, MD, argues that physicians are in a position to spot harmful behavior and influence patients simply by reminding them of the consequences. Ship...

| 2011 Tesla Roadster 2.5: New Looks, Wheels, Seats, Less Noise Posted: 01 Jul 2010 04:30 AM PDT  Tesla's on a roll, it seems. Two days after its successful public stock offering, the company has released details of the latest updates to its Roadster electric sports car--known as "Roadster 2.5" after software-release numbering. The 2.5 version sports some new styling at front and rear, including a new front fascia (the grille-and-bumper area)...

| Posted: 30 Jun 2010 06:01 PM PDT  Look, you're just going to have to get used to the fact that Buick's given up some stuff to survive. It's making the grade as an authentic near-luxury brand with cars like the swanky Enclave crossover and the plush, kicky LaCrosse--and there's not a lazy undersquare V-8 lumbering under their hoods, no vinyl roofs to be found. And now it's doing it...

| Posted: 30 Jun 2010 05:43 PM PDT  The Basics: Burt Reynolds has left the building; there are no more W-cars to kick around. Buick has broom-swept almost all the dusty past from its showrooms—but in an odd Taurus-like move, has dubbed its savvy new front-drive, mid-size sedan with the retro Regal badge. Trust us: this is no Regal. It's hardly a Buick, if you recall anything that...

| The 9 Most Useful Mobile Apps for the Road Posted: 30 Jun 2010 09:17 AM PDT  According to Mashable.com, today is Social Media Day. And even though we don't fully understand the rationale -- It's the end of Q2? The feast day of St. Theobald (unlikely, since he was a hermit)? -- we're happy to take part in the festivities as long as there's punch and pie. ...Okay, so we've just gotten word that there's no punch and pie...
