So, you're finally ready to buy your next vehicle. The shopping process can be a daunting task, but with millions of listings both new and used, The Car Connection can help you find the car, truck, or crossover you really want. If it's a used vehicle you need, here's a shortcut. We've scoured our listings with our easy-to-use shopping tools to...
There are more than just well-muscled work trucks and burly sport-utes under the GMC umbrella, and the Acadia makes for one of the two crossovers also developed by the brand. It's the larger of the two: an eight-passenger companion to the five-seat Terrain, and a more masculine alternative to minivans on the market today. Over its five years on...
The Hyundai Tucson is a prime example of why crossovers have stolen the hearts of suburban families away from the traditional SUV. It's smartly-conceived, sharply styled with some of the Sonata's design cues, and it's relatively fuel-efficient–though its EPA ratings have been adjusted downward for accuracy. The Tucson was well timed and well...
The Audi Q7 is a luxury crossover that focuses on comfortable seating for the whole family, as well as its on-road manners. Not that you're likely to need much in the way of off-road capability, anyway, of course. On-road, the quattro all-wheel drive will tackle harsh conditions with grace. Don't let the extra size of the Audi Q7 compared to the...
The Dodge Grand Caravan is a mainstream minivan that's shares most of its components with the Chrysler Town & Country, with just a few minor styling changes and features of its own. A mainstay in Dodge's lineup since the 1980s, the Grand Caravan starts below $20,000 and caps around $30,000. It competes with the well-mannered Honda Odyssey and...
The Dodge Dart is the first true small car from Chrysler since the Neon disappeared, but it's hardly small. By government standards, it's nearly a mid-size car, and its large back seat gives the Dart and edge on much of the competition in the segment. The Dart's rakish look also helps, as it fights for buyers with the Toyota Corolla, Mazda 3...
The Nissan Murano is a stylish alternative to a sea of rounded family wagons and crossovers, and it doesn't rely on falsely rugged details or blunt, bluff, sheetmetal to distinguish itself smartly. The Murano remains a good-looking vehicle, even today as it approaches the end of the current model's life cycle. When it made its debut, and still...
The Nissan Versa takes the lighter approach to subcompact sedans; rather than focusing on style and technology, it chooses to target price and size on a budget. It's a simple effort, with a spacious cabin and gas mileage telling almost all of the story behind its low price. From a distance, the Versa Sedan looks to have upward aspirations. With...
You all seem awfully interested in the 2013 Smart Electric Drive as it is once again our top video of the week. We wrapped up our 30 days of the 2013 Ram 1500, and drove the hot new 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG. Our spy photographers caught the 2015 Volkswagen Touareg testing in Europe, and we caught the 2014 Subaru WRX taking hot laps on the...
The 2013 Toyota FJ Cruiser may have only limited appeal, but it's an all-star at its game. It's ready for rocky trails, yet maintains a quirky stylishness that doesn't seem out of place in town, too. There's no attempt at family practicality here; no masquerading as a plush luxury vehicle; and no nod to go-fast driving enthusiasts. The FJ Cruiser...
Now in its second year following an overhaul in engineering and design, the Kia Rio sedan and hatchback return for the new year with very few changes. That's not a bad thing, though: Kia has finally discovered a formula that makes that cars feel and look as well-constructed and almost as point-perfect as the Honda compacts of the early 1980s and...
After just four years of being on sale, the Kia Soul has come into its own. In a class of cars that depend entirely on kicky looks and athletic appeal, the Soul's punchy attitude has been its foot in the door–and its bulldog nose, boxy tail and edge roofline just work. It helps that the Soul is more practical, too, than the other...
The BMW 6-Series revels in its many personalities. As a 640i Convertible with all-wheel drive, it's an all-season, top-down cruiser. As the mighty M6 coupe with a manual transmission, it's a fearsome track-tackling juggernaut. And as a 650i Gran Coupe, it's a luxurious four-door that winks at practicality while it defies convention. The 6-Series...
Today at The Car Connection, we reviewed the 2014 Ford Escape and drove the new 2014 Nissan Versa Note hatchback. Tesla demonstrated how its new battery-swapping stations will work, and Aston Martin priced the V12 Vantage. All this and more in today's car news, right here on The Car Connection. We compared how Tesla handled the recall of the Model...
