During the Great Recession, researchers noticed a curious trend: Americans were driving less. Analysts devised numerous theories linking the economic downturn to our driving habits, but according to a recently published study, the two have very little to do with one another. The study was conducted by the U.S. Public Interest Research Group, a...
We've seen plenty of insurance companies offering discounts for devices that track driving habits like mileage and hard braking. Now, one small U.S. insurer is doing something a little different in a ploy to cut down on distracted driving -- and presumably, the accidents it causes. The company is called Arbella, and it's based in New England...
The Mercedes-Benz S Class has long stood at the top of the full-size luxury sedan segment, known for its comfort, style, and technological innovation. All-new for 2014, the S Class seeks not just to retain that reputation, but to raise the bar. Unveiled in an elaborate ceremony at the assembly site of the Airbus A380 in Hamburg, Germany, the 2014...
Today at The Car Connection, we drove a 2013 Honda Accord V6 Touring and compared the 2013 Chevrolet Volt to the 2013 Nissan Leaf. A rare Maserati wagon is going up for sale and the next-generation Land Rover Defender might be delayed. All this and more in today's car news, right here on The Car Connection. Toyota's lagging behind competitors when...

While we spent most of our time at...
They both deliver smooth, all-electric power. They both plug into the wall to recharge their battery packs. And after two years, they're the first and second best-selling plug-in electric cars in the U.S. So which one is right for you: the Nissan Leaf, or the Chevrolet Volt? Both electric cars run on energy stored in a built-in lithium-ion battery...
Our month with the 2013 Ram 1500 is about half over, so it's time to switch gears. The Ram's been sent west--west of the Mississippi to our Little Rock bureau, where we'll have more opportunity to put it through more hardcore duties like towing and off-road driving. For the route west, we steered free of pouring rain from Georgia on I-20, cutting...
