A prototype for BMW’s next-generation X1 has been spotted, and it looks to be considerably longer than previous testers for the upcoming compact crossover. This suggests that a new version with third-row seats is in the works.

McLaren will celebrate the 20th anniversary of its overall victory in the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans with a new special edition model. The special edition will be based on the 650S and feature styling enhancements penned by Peter Stevens, designer of the original F1.

General Motors Company [NYSE:GM] is working on a new large car that its Australian subsidiary Holden has confirmed will be its next Commodore. The new car is tipped to be either a version of the next-generation Opel Insignia or a production version of the recent Buick Avenir concept car.
