| Posted: 31 May 2012 10:00 AM PDT  In its last model year before a complete redesign, the 2013 Audi A3 betrays its age mostly in its lack of noise suppression and outdated infotainment offerings.

| Honda, Lexus Are Tops In Perceived Quality; Ford, Hyundai Improve Posted: 31 May 2012 07:00 AM PDT  When it comes to perceived quality -- that is, how consumers view brands, based on personal experience and word-of-mouth -- Honda and Lexus are at the top of their game. That's according to ALG, a California-based company that has been predicting valuations in the automotive industry for almost 50 years. In the spring of this year, ALG interviewed...

| Posted: 31 May 2012 03:57 AM PDT  Fitting fashionably in between the subcompact Rio and mid-size Optima, the 2013 Kia Forte covers all the bases with three different body styles of compact cars—including a Forte sedan, Forte 5-door hatchback, and Forte Koup two-door.

| Posted: 30 May 2012 09:26 PM PDT  For years, the Lexus ES has been a great luxury sedan for impressing the clients. It's been conservatively dressed; plush, premium, quiet, and comfortable inside—yet never ostentatious. And it's worn that Lexus badge more as a symbol of smart, on-a-budget luxury than flamboyance.

| Posted: 30 May 2012 08:16 PM PDT  Straddling the gap between a sporty car and a true sports car, the Audi TT shirks simple classification in favor of a combination of design, practicality, and fun-driving spirit underpinned with solid Audi engineering. The 2013 Audi TT carries forward the 2012 model's features and designs unchanged. Nonetheless, the current TT...

| Posted: 30 May 2012 07:45 PM PDT The Lexus ES has long been the choice for those who want to be cosseted and comforted, but those who don't want to be overly involved in the driving experience. At the same time, there's a new kind of luxury shopper who wants a car that's quiet and cushy, yet more responsive—not sluggish or boatlike. We think that the 2012 Lexus...
