Porsche 911

Posted: 23 May 2013 03:08 PM PDT

The Porsche 911 is a two-door coupe or convertible luxury sportscar. It has maintained its same basic layout for over 50 years, while evolving in virtually every way possible to offer both explosive performance and iconic looks. The 911 is without a true competitor, though alternatives range from cars like the Chevrolet Corvette and Audi R8 to the...

Porsche Cayenne

Posted: 23 May 2013 03:05 PM PDT

The Porsche Cayenne is a high-performance luxury utility vehicle with sports car pedigree. While Porsche enthusiasts initially balked at the idea of the Cayenne, it has since been warmly received, bolstering sales and profits for the brand. For an in-depth look at every aspect of the 2013 Porsche Cayenne, read our full review. A luxury SUV with a...

Chevy Impala

Posted: 23 May 2013 03:01 PM PDT

The Chevrolet Impala is a four-door sedan with heritage as memorable to your parents–or even your grandparents–as the Corvette. The Impala has been around for more than 50 years, and while it's occasionally had two doors instead of four, it's more often been a mainstay sedan for the American brand. See our 2014 Chevrolet Impala review...

Nissan Versa

Posted: 23 May 2013 02:56 PM PDT

The Nissan Versa is offered in two models–the subcompact four-door sedan and the slightly-larger "Note" compact five-door hatchback. But, for a small car, it's one of the roomiest models in its segment. There's legitimate space for two adults in the back, it rides comfortably, and it continues to be one the least expensive cars on the market...

Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet

Posted: 23 May 2013 02:52 PM PDT

The Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet is unique in the market today. It's a crossover with all-wheel drive, but it's also a soft-top convertible. With dramatic lines and a niche audience, it's an interesting vehicle, though it may puzzle passers-by and even other standard Murano drivers. See our full review of the 2013 Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet for...

Fiat 500

Posted: 23 May 2013 02:50 PM PDT

The Fiat 500 is a subcompact Italian car that reintroduced the brand to the U.S. market after a quarter-century hiatus. While it took a moment for the 500 to find its niche, Fiat created a plan for additional models in its lineup, though you can now find thousands of the little cars running around large cities. For a more detailed look at the 500...

2013 Subaru WRX

Posted: 23 May 2013 02:17 PM PDT

The Subaru WRX and STI may look like siblings of the economical Impreza sedan and hatchback, but they're more than that. These juiced-up Subarus are the performance versions of the brand's compact cars, with turbocharged flat-four cylinder engines under the hood and excellent handling from their all-wheel drive. It's a magical...

2013 Chevrolet Cruze

Posted: 23 May 2013 02:15 PM PDT

The Chevrolet Cruze is, quite frankly, a better car than the Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla. Behind its subtle styling is a top-shelf alternative to every other car in the compact economy car segment. It's built with excellent safety, features, comfort and interior room–and it's now one of our top recommendations for small cars...

2013 Hyundai Elantra

Posted: 23 May 2013 02:11 PM PDT

The Hyundai Elantra comes in sedan, coupe and hatchback guises, but it's more than just a car. It's an example of how quickly South Korea has learned from Japanese automaker successes and rewritten the metaphorical playbook. The Elantra came out of nowhere to become one of the best-selling and best all-around compact cars available in...

2013 Hyundai Sonata

Posted: 23 May 2013 02:08 PM PDT

It may have entered as a dark horse in the mid-size sedan segment two years ago, but now the Hyundai Sonata has earned a reputation for its swoopy, attractive styling. Its current mission is to become one the best family sedans on the market today, and while it hasn't quite hit the mark on handling or refinement, it's a solid choice if...

2013 Ford Edge

Posted: 23 May 2013 02:03 PM PDT

The Ford Edge was never a true SUV; it was brought into this world purely as a crossover. It's a tall-roofed family wagon, and it's been successful that way. With a spacious interior, the availability of a few fuel-saving engines and one of the most feature-robust connectivity tools on the market, it's seen a few minor updates for the...

2013 Ford F-150

Posted: 23 May 2013 01:58 PM PDT

It's hard to complain when you're the best-selling pickup truck on the market, and for the new model year, the 2013 Ford F-150 has added a few features, too. That's important, because the competition is gaining ground in their attempt to catch up with this Ford's sales. The F-150's been one of the top-rated trucks here for years, and...

2013 Honda Accord

Posted: 23 May 2013 12:53 PM PDT

Some of the cars in the mid-size sedan market have become a bit lazy. The Chevrolet Malibu and Toyota Camry have both lost some sense of direction, while the Ford Fusion, Nissan Altima, Kia Optima and Hyundai Sonata have all gained ground with new design and useful new features. The 2013 Honda Accord cleaves the group of mid-sizers in...

2013 Honda Civic

Posted: 23 May 2013 12:42 PM PDT

While the Honda Civic may have seen a redesign in 2012, the new model fell short of meeting the expectations of discerning small-car shoppers. That’s because while the market moved toward more refinement, sophistication, and features, the Civic kept it basic—perhaps too basic. With that in mind, Honda's 2013 Civic has seen...

MINI Countryman

Posted: 23 May 2013 12:33 PM PDT

The MINI Countryman is a subcompact crossover, and despite being a little large for the MINI brand, it's still one of the smallest crossovers on the market today. It competes with cars like the Nissan Juke and Buick Encore, though shoppers interested in cars like the Audi A3 may also find it interesting. For more details, including options...
