| Iowa Shakes Fist, Tells Tesla To Get Off Its Property Posted: 26 Sep 2014 10:23 AM PDT  Iowa has told Tesla to hit the road -- and not in the good way. According to the Des Moines Register, the state's Department of Transportation told Tesla to pack its bags and cut short a planned series of test drives in West Des Moines earlier this month. Why would the DOT do such a thing? Because the Iowa Automobile Dealers Association... |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2014 09:36 AM PDT  The Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class is a coupe-like spin-off from the German automaker's globally known E-Class family. With a choice between basic V-6 and supercar-strength twin-turbo V-8 in the CLS 63 AMG, the sedan is a rival for vehicles like the Audi A7, Jaguar XF, and BMW 6-Series.

| Posted: 26 Sep 2014 09:35 AM PDT  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 sibling to the luxurious SL-Class, the SLK offers a choice of powertrains, from a turbocharged four-cylinder to a 415-horsepower V-8. Not surprisingly, the car has been a runaway success for... |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2014 09:35 AM PDT  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 and the Honda Ridgeline pickup truck. MORE: Read our 2015 Honda Pilot... |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2014 09:34 AM PDT  The Nissan Xterra is a 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. As a result, the Xterra does sacrifice a bit of on-road fluency... |
| Chrysler Recalls 2008 Dodge Charger, Magnum; Chrysler 300; Jeep Commander, Jeep Grand Cherokee Posted: 26 Sep 2014 09:30 AM PDT  Chrysler has issued a recall for 2008 models of the Dodge Charger, Dodge Magnum, Chrysler 300, Jeep Commander, and Jeep Grand Cherokee. Some of those vehicles may suffer from an ignition switch problem that could disable features like windshield wipers, defrosters, and even airbags.

| Posted: 26 Sep 2014 08:43 AM PDT  The Hyundai Elantra is the South Korean automaker's compact sedan and hatchback. It's 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 Focus and Mazda 3. It also... |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2014 08:39 AM PDT  The Hyundai Veloster is an unusual four-door vehicle. You have to stop and look at the vehicle from all sides before you discover exactly where all four of the compact hatchback's doors are. The Veloster's a spin-off of the subcompact and compact Hyundai lineup of cars, but it's a unique offering: one the passenger side the Veloster has two doors... |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2014 08:27 AM PDT  The Hyundai Accent is a rival for vehicles like the Honda Fit, Ford Fiesta, Kia Rio, and the Chevrolet Sonic. With the Accent, Hyundai has a subcompact four-door sedan or five-door hatchback that wears the lowest pricetag in its lineup. It's no stripper though: the Accent is now one of the bigger cars in its class, and comes very well-equipped, as... |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2014 08:12 AM PDT  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 -- not to mention the Cadillac ATS. The IS is new as of the 2014 model year, when it was transformed into a much more extroverted sedan shorn of its two-door coupe models. MORE... |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2014 08:10 AM PDT  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 in 2015, it will be the only such vehicle sold in America, unless you consider the Porsche Panamera plug-in hybrid in the same class. The CT shares some of its gas-electric drivetrain with the... |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2014 08:07 AM PDT  The Lexus LX is the latest vehicle in the Japanese luxury brand's lineup to adopt its spindle-style grille, but the new front end doesn't disguise the fact that the LX is strikingly different from the other vehicles in the showroom. The LX is a brute: it's a large sport-utility vehicle that shares its running gear with the Toyota Land Cruiser. All... |
| 2015 Chevy Camaro, Saab Deathwatch, Mercedes-AMG GT: What’s New @ The Car Connection Posted: 26 Sep 2014 07:30 AM PDT  From The Car Connection: 2015 Chevrolet Camaro Review The Chevrolet Camaro lives on as a bold expression of America's passion for muscle cars, even as the world shifts its attention toward fuel-sippers and environmentally-friendly sports cars. This year, the Camaro can be had in a variety of flavors, ranging from the cost-effective V-6 and potent... |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2014 07:13 AM PDT  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's recognizable even by those who don't follow or have much enthusiasm for cars. Available in current form in base, RS, SS, 1LE, and ZL1 versions, the Camaro's range of V-6... |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2014 07:12 AM PDT  The Chevrolet Suburban is a full-size truck-based SUV. In addition to being one of the largest SUVs on the market today, it’s also the oldest—the Suburban has been sold in one form or another since the 1930s. Today’s Suburban can seat an entire family, stow their gear, and still tow heavy loads with ease. The Suburban shares many... |
