| Posted: 24 Sep 2014 05:14 PM PDT  The Porsche 911 is a 2+2 rear-engined sports car available in both rear- and all-wheel drive form, as well as in coupe, cabriolet, and targa body types. Though it has evolved significantly over the past half-century, the Porsche 911 remains an icon of both style and performance. The 911 competes, roughly, with the Audi R8, Jaguar F-Type, Chevrolet... |
| Posted: 24 Sep 2014 05:12 PM PDT  The Porsche 918 Spyder is a hybrid-electric, mid-engined, all-wheel-drive supercar. It’s Porsche’s first hybrid supercar, and it’s also one of the fastest, most high-performance production cars in the world. Launched as a concept at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show, the low-volume 918 Spyder continues to wow onlookers with its sleek... |
| Posted: 24 Sep 2014 05:09 PM PDT  The Audi R8 is a mid-engined, two-seat sports car with dashing, if somewhat reserved, looks and impressive performance. The Audi R8 shares some of its DNA with sister company Lamborghini, but the overall product is distinctly German—and surprisingly practical. Carried over virtually unchanged for the 2015 model year, the R8 still comes in... |
| 2015 Toyota Yaris: First Drive Posted: 24 Sep 2014 03:03 PM PDT  The 2015 Toyota Yaris is one of the better-looking subcompacts on the market; yet in too many respects—especially from the driver's seat—it feels like a small car from another era. Putting it tersely—after driving several versions of it this past week, on the mostly leisurely roads of the Big Island of Hawaii—that's how we... |
| Posted: 24 Sep 2014 02:32 PM PDT  The BMW 4-Series is a new lineup of coupes, convertibles, and sedans that includes the 4-Series Gran Coupe and M4 spin-offs. BMW split off the two-doors from the 3-Series lineup, but with the subsequent addition of the four-door Gran Coupe, the mission's become a bit muddled. The 4-Series still draws its heritage and design from the 3-Series... |
| Posted: 24 Sep 2014 02:31 PM PDT  The Audi A5 is the German automaker's entry-level two-door vehicle. As either a convertible (dubbed the Cabriolet) or as a hardtop coupe, the A5 gets truly interesting when it's supercharged into S5 form, or tuned to RS5 standards with a rippling V-8 drivetrain. The A5 is a member of the family of vehicles that also includes the A4 and S4 sedans... |
| Posted: 24 Sep 2014 02:30 PM PDT  The Audi A6 has been the German automaker's mid-size, five-passenger sedan for more than two decades. A rival for vehicles like the Cadillac CTS, Mercedes-Benz E-Class and the BMW 5-Series, the A6 isn't just a sedan, though. Joined for parts of its life by the higher-performance and sportier S6 sedan, the A6 range has also included the Avant wagon... |
| Posted: 24 Sep 2014 02:27 PM PDT  The Audi A4 is a mid-size luxury sedan that's become the German automaker's best-selling vehicle. It's no longer the entry-level vehicle in Audi's American lineup, though--not since the introduction of the compact A3 family of sedans, wagons, and cabriolets. The current A4 has been on the market since 2009, and is due for a revamp by 2016. It... |
| Posted: 24 Sep 2014 02:19 PM PDT  The Audi Q5 is a five-passenger crossover vehicle that's become one of the best sellers in the German automaker's lineup. It's been on the market for six model years now, and it's still a strong draw, thanks to excellent interior space and refinement, good handling, and a pair of green drivetrain options. Somewhat related to the Audi A4 sedan, the... |
| Start Spreading The News: Cadillac Ditches Detroit, Moves HQ To New York Posted: 24 Sep 2014 09:36 AM PDT  Where Scotland failed, Cadillac has succeeded: General Motors' luxury brand gained independence this week and is making plans to relocate to New York. Well, sort of. According to GM, Cadillac is being spun off into a separate business unit. As GM's president Dan Ammann explains, "With the relentless upward repositioning of successive... |
| Judge Cuts Hyundai's Fine To $73 Million In Montana Wrongful Death Suit Posted: 24 Sep 2014 08:09 AM PDT  In May of this year, a jury in Montana ruled against Hyundai, siding with the families of two teenage boys who died in a 2005 Hyundai Tiburon. The jury set a massive, $240 million penalty, which Hyundai subsequently appealed. According to Auto News, the judge in the case has now cut that fine by about two-thirds, to $73 million. Will Hyundai... |
| 2015 Toyota Yaris, 2015 Car Of The Year, 2015 Mercedes-AMG C63: What’s New @ The Car Connection Posted: 24 Sep 2014 07:30 AM PDT  From The Car Connection: 2015 Toyota Yaris Review The 2015 Toyota Yaris gets an eye-catching new face, spruced-up interior trims, and a somewhat quieter interior, but it lags behind the current crop of U.S.-market subcompacts in many ways. 2015 North American Car And Truck/SUV Of The Year: Short List Announced We've just received word that judges... |
| Posted: 23 Sep 2014 08:04 PM PDT  The Toyota Yaris is an odd entry for the U.S. market, as the lowest-priced model from the brand, slotting below the best-selling Corolla and Camry sedans in the Toyota lineup. There's definitely some overlap with the same-sized Scion xD and Toyota Prius C hybrid—like those models available only in hatchback form—and while... |
| Posted: 23 Sep 2014 06:19 PM PDT  As the second car sold by Silicon Valley startup Tesla Motors [NSDQ:TSLA], the Model S is the rarest of rarities: a competitive luxury sport sedan engineered, designed, tested and built by a brand-new carmaker that's only been in business 10 years ago. The Model S remains the longest-range, regular-production battery-electric car in the world, and... |
