The Santa Fe Sport is a compact to mid-size five-seat model, while the larger Santa Fe has seven seats and is meant to replace the slow-selling Hyundai Veracruz. The Sport model is built in Georgia while the larger model is imported from... |
| 2015 Ford F-150: Best Car To Buy Nominee Posted: 29 Oct 2014 12:07 PM PDT  Ford has a lot of momentum with the F-150, the best-selling vehicle in America for decades. So we think it courageous and to be admired that the automaker isn’t just aiming for continued evolution with its redesigned 2015 F-150. It’s shooting for a higher target in efficiency and performance—and from what we’ve seen so far... |

| Posted: 29 Oct 2014 09:03 AM PDT  The VW Golf is the German automaker's global best-seller, and it's been so for the past forty years. A five-door or three-door compact hatchback, the Golf comes with a wide range of powertrain choices--today, everything from a turbodiesel to a turbo four to a battery pack. In the past the Golf has shared underpinnings with the Jetta four-door... |

| Posted: 29 Oct 2014 08:57 AM PDT  The Chrysler Town & Country was one of the very first minivans on the market, if traced back to its Dodge Caravan roots. Given a major refresh for 2011, the Town & Country carries over to the 2015 model year nearly unchanged--since a new model is expected for 2016. The Town & Country has rivals in the Dodge Grand Caravan, the Toyota... |
| Posted: 29 Oct 2014 08:52 AM PDT  The Smart ForTwo is a two-seat hatchback that, to date, is the smallest highway-legal car sold in the U.S. Even though it’s been on the market in the U.S. since 2008, it hasn’t caught on nearly as much as it has in Europe. Its chief rival in the U.S. is the equally slow-selling Scion iQ. MORE: Read our 2015 Smart Fortwo review Launched... |
| Posted: 29 Oct 2014 08:29 AM PDT  The Lexus NX is a new member of the Lexus family, and of the quickly growing lineup of compact luxury crossovers. It's the brand's first utility vehicle in this size class, as well as its first model ever to feature a turbocharged engine. With the NX, Lexus jumps into an already crowded field, which counts the Audi Q5, Acura RDX, Mercedes GLK... |

| Posted: 29 Oct 2014 08:21 AM PDT  The Countryman is the largest model in the MINI range, but it’s still one of the smallest crossovers currently on the market. It competes with the Nissan Juke and the Buick Encore. The lines of the Countryman are instantly recognizable as a MINI, but larger in every dimension. It actually shares no body panels with the smaller, shorter... |

| Posted: 29 Oct 2014 08:10 AM PDT  The Scion iQ is a microcar that has few rivals--the best one being the Smart ForTwo, though the larger Fiat 500 factors into the mix. Even though it’s a better car in some ways than its competitors, it’s still not a car that has caught on in the U.S. The iQ is known elsewhere in the world as the Toyota iQ and is designed for crowded... |

The X5 is a mid-size sport-utility vehicle, though BMW prefers its own... |
| No, You Don't Have To Take A DUI Test In Court Posted: 29 Oct 2014 07:52 AM PDT  There's a lot of debate about sobriety tests for drunk drivers -- at least among those on the receiving end. For example, some lawyers will tell you to refuse a breathalyzer test if you're pulled over. Others will say that you're better to take it, because judges don't look too kindly at refusals when it comes to sentencing. But according to... |
