Just a few days ago we reported that BMW would be bringing a new roadster concept to the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, and today, just a few weeks out from the show, the wraps have come off the stunning new concept car. Rather than preview a specific production model--though we could envisage this being...

There’s still no official confirmation of plans to introduce the latest generation Suzuki Swift to the U.S. market but there’s certainly a lot of publicity surrounding the stylish hatchback. The latest is news of a concept version being unveiled at next month’s 2011 Geneva Motor...

It's been 50 years since Shelby had an official presence at an auto show, and the company made good use of its appearance at the 2011 Chicago Auto Show by debuting the convertible version of its Shelby GT350 Mustang. This is the first convertible GT350 since 1970, and it will be part of a limited...

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...

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...

The Man Van is even manlier today with the unveiling of the Dodge Grand Caravan R/T. Dodge says it delivers the performance-sedan handling with minivan utility. Rated at 283 horsepower from its 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine, it certainly has the grunt it needs to get the job done. A...

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...

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.

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...

The 2012 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 is out, and we have all the details for you, but we also have video of the live unveiling minutes ago at the 2011 Chicago Auto Show, and live shots from the floor above.

-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...

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.
