2013

Having first been launched back in 2002, the Volvo XC90 is now one of the oldest models currently in production. Nevertheless, the mid-size luxury crossover will have to soldier on for at least another year, possibly more, though at least it’s receiving some updates along the way. The changes...

After weeks of drip-fed teasers, Infiniti has finally taken the wraps off its JX Concept, a preview of a new seven-seat luxury crossover that’s scheduled to go on sale next spring as the 2013 Infiniti JX. The production version will look very similar to the concept you see here, complete with...

When Lexus unveiled the LF-Gh concept at this year's New York Auto Show, few expected the dramatic, sharp-edged look to make it to production, but that's exactly what Lexus has done. Only minimal concessions to convention have been made for the 2013 Lexus GS 350, with most of the particularly...

We're so used to seeing carmakers taking leaps forward in in-car technology and mobile innovations that it comes as a shock when progress takes a step back. When the 2011 Hyundai Equus luxury car was launched it gained high praise from all quarters for offering huge levels of equipment at a price...

The 2013 Lexus GS 350 will be unveiled later this month just ahead of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, complete with a live stream via Facebook. Today, we get the first official teaser image of the car we've spied so many times. We've also seen the new GS showing its stuff on video, even...

This latest teaser previews the new 2013 Cadillac ATS compact luxury sedan, which goes on sale in the summer of 2012.

Question: what does a 2013 Lexus GS look like attacking an autocross-style course in full camouflage? Answer: see below. Despite the rather weak music overlaid on the video, we do get to hear some sounds of mild tire scrub in the video below, though the engine/exhaust note is too muted to make it...

Very little in life comes for free, which makes us appreciate paying less for something all the more. A drop in price of $100 certainly makes Ford's SYNC hands-free, in-car connectivity system something to appreciate. The system is now only $295. Things haven't been easy for Ford with its GM OnStar...

To truly bring the fight to the BMW 5-Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class, the 2013 Lexus GS will have to deliver on performance, style, comfort, and, for many, efficiency. In Europe, at least, that means an available four-cylinder diesel. According to the latest reports, Lexus is planning to do just...

GM has recently confirmed that from 2013 the Chevrolet Cruze compact sedan will be sold with a turbodiesel engine option, allowing an auto-equipped diesel Cruze to hit low to mid 40s miles per gallon on average. Even the regular gasoline version is fairly efficient by the standards of many cars...

After the LF-Gh Hybrid Concept at the New York Auto Show and the spy shots we've captured of the car in testing, the shape of the next Lexus GS sedan is taking pretty clear shape. We only have about a month left to wait to see the final product, as Lexus officially announced today that it will show...

There's a new seven-seater in the works at Infiniti, and fortunately, it shares almost nothing in common with the up-to-eight-passenger QX56, at least in terms of its appearance. These spy shots offer the first good look at what to expect when the new JX makes its debut at this year's Pebble Beach...

If you could make living, working and travelling around your city a better experience for yourself and others, you'd take the opportunity without hesitation, wouldn't you? Now is your chance. BMW Guggenheim Lab is an initiative launched by German carmaker BMW and art and culture organisation, the...

We already know that the upcoming ATS will feature a four-cylinder engine but this will be just the start of Cadillac’s new four-cylinder onslaught as the downsized engines are also destined to appear in the XTS range and possibly even the next-generation CTS. This will be in stark contrast...

The all-new, 2013 Chevrolet Malibu that GM [NYSE: GM] just revealed at the New York auto show—and at the 2011 Shanghai Auto Show yesterday—will be a truly global model. With a wider stance, HID headlamps, and LED taillamps, and showy wheels, plus all-new trims and interior materials...

Yesterday we saw a teaser sketch for the new seven-seat 2013 Infiniti JX and at today’s 2011 New York Auto Show we have confirmation that the upcoming luxury crossover will be built right here in the U.S. The information was revealed today by Nissan’s U.S. chief, Carlos Tavares, who...

Fast factory versions of frumpy family sedans are nothing new--they've been around almost as long as the industry has--but few really capture the mind of the auto enthusiast like the Ford Taurus SHO (Super High Output) did during the 1990s. Perhaps because it was one of the few American takes on...

Joining the updated Taurus SHO on Ford’s stands at this week’s 2011 New York Auto Show is a completely revised 2013 Ford Taurus lineup, one that’s greener, drives better, packed with more technology and is arguably much more stylish. The biggest news is the introduction of a...

Ford’s reintroduced for 2010 Taurus SHO was already a very capable sedan, coming with 365 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque and a 0-60 mph time of around 6.0 seconds. In fact, the EcoBoosted V-6 SHO was even able to hold its own against a V-8 powered Audi A6, as you’ll see by...
