| Posted: 28 Jan 2015 03:05 PM PST  The 2015 Lexus GS 350 and GS 450h hybrid are sedans that serve (mostly) as rivals for a core set of German luxury and sport sedans, including the Mercedes-Benz E Class, BMW 5-Series, Audi A6. The Cadillac CTS is another rival model, while the Acura RLX Sport Hybrid SH-AWD is perhaps the most direct rival to the GS 450h. These GS models... |
| Posted: 28 Jan 2015 01:36 PM PST  The Mercedes SLK-Class is a two-seat hardtop convertible that's been a part of the German automaker's lineup since the 1996 model year. Pitched as the smaller, nimbler (and less expensive) alternative to the luxurious SL-Class, the SLK offers a wide range of powertrains, from a turbocharged four-cylinder to a 415-horsepower AMG V-8. It's also the... |
| Posted: 28 Jan 2015 01:34 PM PST  The Honda Pilot is a mid-size crossover SUV that wears a rather boxy, trucklike shape, but drives with the comfort and predictability of a family-friendly wagon--with or without optional all-wheel drive. The Pilot is built in Alabama, alongside the somewhat related Acura MDX; it also shares many components with the Honda Ridgeline pickup truck... |
| Posted: 28 Jan 2015 01:25 PM PST  The Nissan Xterra is a true sport-utility vehicle that shares its underpinnings with the Nissan Frontier pickup. Built in the U.S., the Xterra is one of the few SUVs to have more than all-weather traction in mind: it's truly a rugged utility vehicle that's perfectly at home off pavement, not a tall all-wheel-drive wagon like most crossovers. As a... |
| Posted: 28 Jan 2015 01:22 PM PST  The Hyundai Elantra sedan and hatchback make up the South Korean automaker's compact offerings. The nameplate is in its fourth generation on the U.S. market, and in its current form, it's won many honors, including the 2012 North American Car of the Year award. Today's Elantra has earned a place alongside our favorite cars in the class, the Ford... |
| Posted: 28 Jan 2015 01:19 PM PST  Hyundai's Accent models are subcompact four-door sedans and five-door hatchbacks that wear the lowest pricetags in its lineup. The Accent is no stripper, though: It's now one of the bigger cars in its class, and comes very well-equipped, as Hyundai has added more features to the base model. While it isn't exciting to drive, the Accent is one of... |
| Study: Even First Accident Claim Raises Car Insurance Rates For Years Posted: 28 Jan 2015 01:15 PM PST  Afraid that making just one auto-insurance claim will raise your rates? That fear is entirely justified by the results of a new study—pointing to a premium rate hike of 41 percent, on average, after making just one $2,000 claim. That’s about $370 annually, on average, and a premium that could haunt you for several years. California is... |
| Posted: 28 Jan 2015 12:53 PM PST  The Hyundai Veloster is an unusual four-door vehicle. You have to stop and look at it from all sides before you discover exactly where all four of the compact hatchback's doors are. The Veloster is a spin-off of the subcompact and compact Hyundai lineup of cars, but it's a unique offering: on the passenger side the Veloster has two doors, but on... |
| Honda Pilot Vs. Toyota Highlander: Compare Cars Posted: 28 Jan 2015 12:42 PM PST  If you're a busy parent, especially of the kind that doesn't want to be seen in a minivan, seven-passenger crossovers are good substitutes. And if your escape from sliding doors brought you to either the Honda Pilot or the Toyota Highlander, you're on the right track. Both of these models are among the best affordable mass-market family... |
| Posted: 28 Jan 2015 12:41 PM PST  True to its name, the Hyundai Equus is the war horse at the top of Hyundai's lineup—a powerful, plush flagship that pushes the boundaries for the brand farther upward, into a segment of the market in which others (like VW, with its ill-fated Phaeton) have failed to find success. The Equus is a large luxury car, and the South Korean... |
| Posted: 28 Jan 2015 12:26 PM PST  The Lexus IS is the Japanese luxury brand's entry-level sport sedan. It's an intender in the class that also counts the BMW 3-Series, Audi A4, and Mercedes-Benz C-Class, as well as the relatively new Cadillac ATS. The IS is new as of the 2014 model year, when it was transformed into a much more extroverted sedan. MORE: Read our 2015 Lexus IS... |
| Posted: 28 Jan 2015 12:24 PM PST  The Lexus CT200h is a compact five-door hatchback that's in a class almost by itself. It's a hybrid luxury five-door, and until the Audi A3 e-tron arrives sometime in 2015, it will be the only such vehicle sold in America. The next-closest option would be the larger and more expensive Porsche Panamera plug-in hybrid. The CT shares some of its... |
| Posted: 28 Jan 2015 12:20 PM PST  The Lexus LX is a brute. This large sport-utility vehicle shares its running gear with the Toyota Land Cruiser. All the hardcore towing and off-roading ability built into the Land Cruiser is available in the LX, just behind an extra layer of features and glitzy trim. Like the rest of the Japanese luxury brand's lineup, the LX now wears the... |
| Posted: 28 Jan 2015 12:18 PM PST  The Chevy Equinox is a five-passenger crossover utility vehicle with available all-wheel drive and a choice of efficient four-cylinder and V-6 engines. The Equinox competes with many models, including the Nissan Rogue, Honda CR-V, and Toyota RAV4. See our review of the 2015 Chevy Equinox for more information, including options, prices, gas-mileage... |
| Posted: 28 Jan 2015 12:07 PM PST  The Chevrolet Camaro is a two-door, 2+2 coupe or convertible that's a piece of American muscle-car history. Like the competing Dodge Challenger and Ford Mustang, the Camaro is recognizable even by those who don't follow or have much enthusiasm for cars. Available in current form in base, RS, SS, 1LE, ZL1, and Z/28 versions, the Camaro's range of... |
