Jaguar's working on an entry-level sedan positioned below the XF, to be called the XS. Due for the 2016 model year, the XS is expected to be light and quick--but can it face down the American and German competition?

The Volkswagen Beetle GSR has been priced, and while it's no bargain, it might just be the mix of limited-edition status and sporty looks you're after.

Could the Phaeton make a comeback in the U.S.? Volkswagen appears to be hoping so, with a possible return of the brand's halo sedan at the next Detroit Auto Show.

You'll find all of this and more in today's car news headlines from around the High Gear Media network, right here at Motor Authority.
