| Posted: 25 Jun 2013 12:19 PM PDT  The Hyundai Equus is a large luxury sedan in virtually every way–with all the performance, features and comfort you'd expect–yet without the luxury badge or price tag. For some, that's a great value proposition, while others may find it to be a dealbreaker. True to its name, the Equus is the war horse at the top of Hyundai's...   |
| Posted: 25 Jun 2013 12:08 PM PDT  The Lexus CT200h is a compact hybrid hatchback that shares many of its underpinnings with the Toyota Prius. It's the most affordable way to get into a new Lexus, and it's more or less in a class of its own, though there's a diesel-powered Audi A3 that's similar in size. The CT arrived while the slow-selling and unloved HS 250h sedan, the first...   |
| Posted: 25 Jun 2013 12:03 PM PDT  The Buick Enclave is a full-size luxury crossover with seating for the entire family.

Buick introduced the Enclave at the 2006 Detroit Auto Show as the...   |
| Posted: 25 Jun 2013 11:59 AM PDT  The BMW X5 is a full-size luxury SUV, though BMW prefers to call it a "Sports Activity Vehicle."

| Posted: 25 Jun 2013 11:43 AM PDT  The Kia Sorento is a seven-passenger mid-size crossover that shares many of its underpinnings with the Hyundai Santa Fe.
