| Best Car To Buy 2015: Honorary Mentions, And Extravagance Aside Posted: 27 Oct 2014 12:54 PM PDT  What is the Best Car To Buy? As we bring our focus back from our list of 2015 nomineesfor our annual award, it’s worth taking a look at the all-new models that didn’t quite make our list, and why. Firstly, the award keeps with one of The Car Connection’s core facets, in recognizing mainstream value and accessibility; so as in... |
| Chrysler Investigated For 'Slow Execution Of Recall Campaigns' & 'Poor Communications' With NHTSA Posted: 27 Oct 2014 09:32 AM PDT  The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has launched an investigation of Chrysler's handling of two recent recalls of the Ram pickup truck. According to an agency bulletin (PDF), Chrysler is accused of "[s]low execution of recall campaigns, coupled with poor communications with the agency over potential recall remedy part problems"... |
| Posted: 27 Oct 2014 09:16 AM PDT  The Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class received a significant update in 2013 and remains the least expensive way to drive a crossover SUV with the three-pointed star on the grille. (There's a new compact GLA-Class for 2015, but it's more of a small hatchback than a crossover of any kind.) Carried over the past two model years, today's GLK has a crisp look... |
| Posted: 27 Oct 2014 09:13 AM PDT  The Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class is the first spin-off from the compact Mercedes CLA-Class here in the U.S. On sale later this year, the GLA-Class gives the sedan a hatchback/wagon body and available all-wheel drive, for a light interpretation of the contemporary crossover vehicle. If you’ve ever been a fan of the upright, classy styling and... |

For more information, including more photos and specifications, follow our 2014 Aston Martin DB9 page. Aston... |
| Posted: 27 Oct 2014 09:04 AM PDT  The Chevrolet Trax is a subcompact crossover that's joining the bowtie brand early in 2015. It's essentially a clone of the Buick Encore, which was new for 2013. The Trax is sized like the Chevy Sonic but built on a mostly unrelated architecture. Its rivals have varying degrees of ruggedness: they include the Jeep Renegade, Nissan Juke, Honda... |
| Posted: 27 Oct 2014 09:02 AM PDT  The Subaru XV Crosstrek is a crossover that joined the Japanese automaker's lineup for the 2013 model year. Similar to the previous Impreza Outback and Outback Sport, the XV Crosstrek is the foundation for Subaru's first hybrid, which was introduced for 2014. The Crosstrek name (the "XV" stands, Subaru says, for crossover vehicle) is a new label... |
| Posted: 27 Oct 2014 09:00 AM PDT  The Lexus LS is the Toyota empire's flagship sedan. One of the best-selling luxury cars in America, it was the car that single-handedly established the Lexus brand, long before the popular RX crossover was introduced. It's a rival for the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, BMW 7-Series, Audi A8, and Jaguar XJ. MORE: Read our 2015 Lexus LS review New in the... |
| Posted: 27 Oct 2014 08:57 AM PDT  The Hyundai Genesis was the brand’s first entry into the luxury car segment. Introduced for the 2009 model year, it arrived at the right place and right time, during the throes of the economic downturn—when bargain-priced luxury made consummate sense. The somewhat related Hyundai Genesis Coupe continues as a stand-alone model. Now in... |
| Posted: 27 Oct 2014 08:53 AM PDT  The Cadillac CTS is a mid-size luxury sedan that competes with the BMW 5-Series, Audi A6, and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class. The redesigned CTS sedan that emerged in 2014 has grown in size, thanks to the introduction of the compact ATS. The new Cadillac CTS A new CTS was unveiled for the 2014 model year. Powered by a new twin-turbocharged V-6 engine... |
| Posted: 27 Oct 2014 08:49 AM PDT  The Cadillac Escalade is one of the largest SUVs on the market, and comes in either standard or long-wheelbase editions--just like its mechanical cousins, the GMC Yukon/XL and the Chevy Tahoe and Suburban. More refined now than in past generations, the Escalade is a rival for the Mercedes-Benz GL-CLass, Lincoln Navigator, and the Infiniti QX80... |
| Posted: 27 Oct 2014 08:46 AM PDT  The Mitsubishi i-MiEV is an subcompact hatchback that's powered by electricity alone. It can travel up to 62 miles on one charge, and it's even smaller than a MINI Cooper. In short, it has a lot of inherent design choices that limit its appeal. MORE: Read our 2014 Mitsubishi i-MiEV review The Mitsubishi i competes with the handful of... |
| Posted: 27 Oct 2014 08:41 AM PDT  The Mitsubishi Mirage is one of the smallest vehicles for sale in the U.S. market, and it's also one of the least expensive new vehicles you can buy. The Mirage nameplate was first used in the U.S. back in 2002, and it made a return for 2014 on this subcompact five-door hatch. It's the first new model for the product-starved brand in a long while... |
| Posted: 27 Oct 2014 08:37 AM PDT  Originally called the Accord Crosstour, the Honda Crosstour was launched in 2010 and is something of an anomaly in the carmaker's lineup. It's essentially a mid-size hatchback, based on the Honda Accord, but its somewhat brawnier stance and a little extra weight make it a little less fuel-efficient than the Accord Sedan. It's the only model with... |
