Chicago Auto Show

Mopar is turning 75 this year, and to celebrate, it's showing custom versions of the Chrysler 300, the Fiat 500, the Jeep Compass and the Dodge Dart.

According to Autoblog, Chevrolet will continue to crank out different editions of the Camaro. There's the ZL1 top-dog, of course, and a still-rumored Z28 could still hit showrooms along with perhaps a slightly-more fuel-efficient V-6 model. Other special editions we could see this year? An edition...

We’ve known that the awesome Audi TT RS--and its RS5 big brother--would be making it to the U.S. in 2011 for some time now, and at this past week’s 2011 Chicago Auto Show the TT RS finally made its local debut. Unfortunately, there are still no plans to bring over the Roadster version...

Lexus has taken the wraps off one of its CT 200h hybrid vehicles that has been customized by longtime tuning partner Five Axis. The vehicle made its debut this week at the 2011 Chicago Auto Show and has been designed to appeal to the hot-hatch tuner scene, a segment typically dominated by Honda but...

We aren't huge fans of the facelifted 2012 Acura TL's design, as it looks quite a lot like the last one, though there's a lot to redeem the car once you get past the face. Judging by your comments, you're not all that pleased with it either. Either way, you can watch the official video of its...

The Chicago Auto Show has been a bit of an underwhelming affair, though perhaps none more so than yet another special-color paintjob on the Dodge Challenger. The Dodge Challenger R/T Classic in the new Green With Envy color will entice retro-loving Mopar muscle heads, but few others. The new Green...

The 2012 Shelby GT350 is another modern-day reimagination of an iconic 1960s racer, and for the new model year, it gets two new colors and a production cap of 350 total cars. Also available this year for the first time since 1970: the GT350 treatment on a convertible. The total allocation of 350...

Yesterday we brought you the details on the 2011 Mazda MX-5 Miata Special Edition, built to celebrate the 900,000th MX-5 sold. Today, we have live images of both the Sparkling Black Mica and Dolphin Gray Mica variants from the floor of the Chicago Auto Show. Built on the same underpinnings as the...

Re-sculpted for the new model year and sporting the new 465-horsepower 6.4-liter HEMI common to the SRT8 line, the 2012 Dodge Charger SRT8 is an imposing piece of American machinery--particularly in SRT8 trim. The gaping maw of a grille, aggressive body kit, and massive wheels work together, but...

The full details on the 2011 Dodge Durango R/T are already out, but these live shots confirm it looks as good in person as it does in the official photos. Is it possible that Dodge has built the best-looking performance SUV? It certainly outstrips the BMW X5/X6 and Porsche Cayenne on our...

While the 2011 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392 has gotten most of the attention lately, that doesn't mean that the R/T trim has been forgotten. Slotted as the mid-level trim between the V-6 powered SE and the top-line SRT8 392, the R/T doesn't change much from 2010, but there are subtle differences. The...

We've already brought you key details and live photos of the 2012 Acura TL fresh from Chicago, but now we have the full details. A mild mid-cycle refresh, the 2012 TL adds value to the existing car without significantly changing the package. Acura pitches it as "refined, yet aggressive," and we...

The "refined" 2012 Acura TL just hit the stage at the 2011 Chicago Auto Show, and we've got the live shots from its debut. Largely a carry-over from last year's model, the mid-cycle refresh brings some minor tweaks, but unfortunately doesn't ditch the funky, chunky grille. Powered by a...

Big power is the theme of the moment at the Chicago Auto Show, with the Camaro ZL1 just unveiled and now the 2012 Hyundai Genesis R-Spec sedan on stage. We have some of the first live shots on the Web for you in the gallery above. Powered by a 5.0-liter Tau V-8 engine rated at 429 horsepower, the...

Rhys Millen, rally racing, and Hyundai: over the last few years this partnership has yielded some seriously fast race cars, incredible video and photography, and a fair bit of success. The latest motorsports monster from Hyundai is based on the Veloster, but we expect it to deliver just as well as...

-It's here. It's finally here. And it's going to be called the ZL1, not the Z28 as originally thought. Yes, we're talking about the new top-dog 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, which was unveiled today at the 2011 Chicago Auto Show. After months of rumors that the Z28 name would be resurrected, we now know...

Making its debut today at the 2011 Chicago Auto Show is the facelifted 2012 Hyundai Genesis sedan, which is set to go on sale in late March with a new range-topping V-8 engine and eight-speed automatic transmission. Hyundai has managed to make its multi-award winning luxury sedan even better, with...

The Chicago Auto Show is in high gear already, with a storm of cars released overnight. This morning, we finally get to see the 2012 Rhys Millen Racing Hyundai Veloster Rally Car land after its mid-air teaser last week. Sporting a 500-horsepower, all-wheel drive powertrain, the first of the...

We'll have the full details for you soon, but right now, we can tell you the Camaro Z/28 won't be called the Z28: it'll be the Camaro ZL1. The info comes courtesy of a photo snapped during setup for the Chicago Auto Show by a member of Camaro5. The photo shows the Chevrolet booth display, and it...

Earlier today we saw the introduction of the new Durango Heat SUV, which comes with a few performance modifications and a fuel efficient V-6 engine. Now we have details on the 2011 Dodge Durango R/T, which is essentially the Durango Heat but with the addition of a powerful Hemi V-8. Also making its...
