Chrysler has debuted a new, special edition of its Jeep Patriot SUV: the 2013 Jeep Patriot Freedom edition. The announcement came yesterday, while many Americans were observing Veterans Day. The timing isn't coincidental: like the Jeep Wrangler Freedom edition, the Patriot Freedom is billed as "a tribute to the brave men and women that have...
Among the unsafe behaviors teen drivers display behind the wheel, nodding off while driving – which hasn’t received nearly enough attention – ranks right up there as potentially deadly. Now, a new study from the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety finds that one in seven licensed drivers ages 16 to 24 admitted to nodding off at...
The Ford Mustang is one of the classic muscle cars, and it's the longest-running one, too.

Chevrolet's Sonic hatchbacks and Cruze sedan brought momentum back to the brand's small cars. Now it's up to the 2013 Malibu to do the same for its fortunes in the mid-size family-sedan class--one end of it, at least, while the General readies a new big Impala full-sizer for the 2014 model year. The new Malibu fares better against the smaller...
The Honda Accord sedan has been one of the best-selling cars in America for decades. But it's fallen behind the Nissan Altima and Ford Fusion--so Honda's hitting back this year with new powertrains, new styling, and new technology. The question--is it enough to elbow those great new sedans aside? The Accord has always taken the safe route when it...

Still compact in absolute terms, the MINI Countryman's the biggest vehicle yet by the brand that automatically suggests "small" by its very name.
