According to the latest reports, the ST will start somewhere around the $30,000 mark, like its sedan counterpart. How far below the $30,000 line the V8-powered...

Suzuki has released three very different concept vehicles in the past 12 months, all grouped under the same ‘Kizashi’ heading. The most recent of these was the Kizashi 3, a stylish sedan concept unveiled at March’s New York Auto Show that was the closest of the three show cars to...

The muscle-car revival that had seemed so wrong-headed just a few months ago may have gotten at least a temporary reprieve with the fuel price drop of the past several weeks, but the orders for the Camaro reflect an apparent disregard for the issue altogether, with 84% of the 6,000 cars ordered so...

Despite receiving more than a thousand orders for its $100,000 all-electric Roadster, Tesla has been bit by the financial crisis bug and was recently forced to make several major cost cutting measures. Last week the company announced a new CEO and confirmed plans to layoff up to half its staff as...

Unlike some of the recently announced and soon-to-be-shown SEMA design concepts for the Mercedes-Benz GLK - one of which was even done by Brabus - the Brabus version of the GLK that will see public sale is considerably more restrained.

General Motors has traditionally designed many of its compact and mid-size cars at its Opel operations in Russelsheim, Germany. Now, however, the company may be looking to shift some of that duty to its U.S. offices, the better to design a car that will suit both U.S. and European tastes. Primary...
