It all started with the Honda Civic several years ago, then other car makers followed suit and the latest spyshots including the 2013 Ford B-Max seem to be talking of
Bavaria’s latest in a line of what many of unnecessary cars, the X1, has been delayed from a launch in the U.S. several times up until recently. This is because just last week the company announced that the BMW X1 would be delayed from seeing its stateside debut indefinitely and since then Americans had been
The Koreans at Hyundai turned quite a few heads with their current iteration of the Genesis Coupe and it seems like they don’t want to lose their appeal with the new one. An observant and lucky car nut managed to snag a few photos of an undisguised 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe in a parking lot,

Just as the British companies have gotten us used to, Land Rover doesn’t really change their lineup very often. That’s why the current generation of the Range Rover has been with us for more than nine years now.

The 2013 Dodge Viper is a crucial part of the brand’s coming back to life and proof of how America can still make really exciting cars. Until it happens though, there’s quite a lot of development to go through which is why we’re getting to spot more and more appearances of test mule vehicles Dodge
Once again, Ferrari pushes the boundaries of what we perceive as the limits of performance and speed with the introduction of the Scuderia version of their 458. This information comes to us as a result of the Italian company’s preparations for the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. At this particular event they’re going to unveil quite
Chevrolet’s Cruze is by all means, a people’s car. GM is stressing out that point by bringing Americans something most manufacturers have been rather reluctant up until this year. With BMW testing the waters of diesel in the U.S, we saw Mercedes quick to follow up on the 2012 M Class, but apart from these
Recently there’s been a huge influx of automotive manufacturers developing and testing their sports cars around the Nurburgring Nordschleife circuit.

Not that long ago, people used to make fun about how the British manufacturers forgot to stop making or update their cars.

Cadillac went a long way to take on the BMW 3 Series with their CTS, but it was quite the bumpy road in taking on such an institution. One of Cadillac’s biggest struggles at hand was related to the coupe version of the CTS, and last we heard about it, they weren’t going to make
The Italians certainly know how to crop up a sports car but when we speak of those at Pagani they just don’t seem to know where the line is. After having replaced the Zonda with the new Pagani Huayra, they just confirmed that they are making a Roadster version.
Out in the wilds of Abu Dhabi but nevertheless, it’s worth a second, third and how much time have you got glance. The BMW Vision EfficientDynamics seems to be quite surefooted about moving from a concept state to an actual production model.
It’s been two months since the world of city cars was shaken by a Lotus Concept that wore exactly the same name. Since then, some paperwork has been done and a lot of management decisions have been made at the lightweight oriented manufacturer. This is the only explanation I can find for their latest announcement.
Let’s face it, when it comes to supercars, even today in the aftermath of a deep economical crisis there’s no shortage of choice. This means that BMW’s new supercar may have to claw its way through the market. Will it be able to cut the mustard?
