  • McLaren's 12C GT3, enhanced for the 2013 season - image: McLaren

    At last week's New York Auto Show we took a few minutes to speak with McLaren Automotive's director for North America, Anthony Joseph. Looking at the recent past, the present, and the near future--despite the complete lack of the new P1 at the New York Auto Show--of the brand. The P1 has soaked up most of the McLaren-branded spotlight of late, for obvious reasons. But there are other things going on at the brand that are, for those of us not among the 375 richest car buyers in the world, far more relevant. Things like a possible one-make racing series a la the Lamborghini Super Trofeo or...

  • 2014 Bentley Flying Spur
    2014 Bentley Flying Spur Video Preview: New York Auto Show

    It's still quite continental, but the 2014 Bentley Flying Spur is missing that tag from its name. To find out why, we stopped by the Bentley stand at the 2013 New York Auto Show, and talked to Paul Jones, who knows precisely why--since he's the one in charge of the new ultra-luxury sedan. The...

  • 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG
    2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG Video Preview: New York Auto Show

    With a pricetag of $48,375, total output of 355 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque, and a 0-60 mph time of 4.5 seconds, the Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG is, how you say, interesting. It's safe to assume no car this year has occupied so many pixels of conversation among our staff Skypers--and will...

  • 2014 Cadillac CTS Live Photos
    2014 Cadillac CTS Video Preview: New York Auto Show

    By now, you've seen our 2013 New York auto show coverage--and maybe you're ready to crown the 2014 Cadillac CTS as the king of all things formerly Art & Science. We understand the rush to judgement, given the goodness on display in this year's 2013 Cadillac ATS. But before you make any brash...

  • 2015 Volkswagen Golf, at 2013 New York Auto Show
    2013 World Car Of The Year Winners Announced In New York

    Every year, an international panel of automotive journalists selects the best cars in the world under various categories, handing out its awards at the New York Auto Show. Atop the hierarchy is the World Car of the Year, followed by the World Performance Car, the World Car Design of the Year and...

  • Subaru WRX Concept, 2013 New York Auto Show
    2013 Subaru WRX Concept: New York Auto Show Live Shots

    We’ll warn you in advance that the 2013 Subaru WRX Concept displayed at this week’s New York Auto Show may or may not be what the final product looks like. Subaru is hedging its bets, saying only that the show-stopping concept represents its “new design language” for the...

  • 2014 Porsche 911 GT3, 2013 New York Auto Show

    Sure, we’ve previously covered all the details on the 2014 Porsche 911 GT3 and we’ve even brought you live images and video from the car’s global debut in Geneva. Why are we bringing you more live shots from this week’s New York Auto Show, then? Because Porsche street-legal race car, that’s why. Because we really can’t get enough of the 3.8-liter, 475-horsepower road-going track car, and we’ll bet that most readers can’t either. Purists aren’t happy that Porsche is dropping the six-speed manual gearbox from the 911 GT3, in favor of a PDK...

  • Kia Cub concept
    Kia Reveals Its Cub Concept At The 2013 Seoul Motor Show

    Though the Seoul Motor Show may not draw the same attention as the (simultaneous) New York Auto Show, it’s still an important home market event for Korean automaker Kia. On Monday, we brought you a teaser image of the brand’s latest concept, the Kia Cub four-door coupe, set to be...

  • 2014 SRT Viper TA
    2014 SRT Viper TA: Live Photos From New York Debut

    Chevrolet’s Corvette won the first battle of a war that we’re sure will ensue for many years to come, and that’s the track lap time feud between the bowtie-badged sports car and the new Viper from the SRT camp. SRT has since retaliated with its 2014 Viper TA, where the TA stands...

  • 2014 Scion tC
    2014 Scion tC Revealed In New York

    The Scion tC coupe accounts for a staggering 40-percent of Scions sold since the brand’s introduction in the U.S. market 10 years ago. Though sales of the tC have fallen in recent years, the model is still a significant one for the Scion brand, and the Japanese automaker hopes that an all-new...

  • Hyundai HND-9 concept, 2013 Seoul Motor Show
    Hyundai HND-9 Coupe Concept Debuts At 2013 Seoul Motor Show

    Coinciding with this week’s festivities in New York is the 2013 Seoul Motor Show taking place in Korea, where the stunning new HND-9 coupe concept from Hyundai made its debut. After a brief preview last week, Hyundai has now revealed the full details for the HND-9, which the automaker has...

  • 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG, 2013 New York Auto Show
    2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG: New York Auto Show Live Photos

    The flagship of the new CLA range, the CLA45 AMG, made its debut at the 2013 New York Auto Show.

  • 2014 Mercedes-Benz B Class Electric Drive

    After literally years of speculation, Mercedes-Benz’s B Class hatchback has finally landed in the U.S., though there’s only one variant, and it’s electric. Yes, Mercedes-Benz is introducing a zero-emission version of its B Class in the U.S. for the 2014 model year, revealing the electric hatch for the first time a time, in production trim, at the 2013 New York Auto Show this week. Like many of the new electric cars coming onto the market, the electric B Class, whose official name is B Class Electric Drive, is being launched primarily for compliance reasons with certain state...

  • 2014 Jeep Cherokee Live Photos
    2014 Jeep Cherokee Live Photos: 2013 New York Auto Show

    One of the most anticipated introductions of the 2013 New York Auto Show wasn't a sports car, a convertible, or a high-priced luxury vehicle. It was the return of a familiar model name: the Jeep Cherokee. And here we have some of the first pictures of this new utility vehicle, live from the floor...

  • 2014 Infiniti QX60 Hybrid, at 2013 New York Auto Show
    2014 Infiniti QX60 Hybrid Bows In New York

    If the 2014 Infiniti QX60 Hybrid looks familiar from the outside, it should; after all, it’s been on the market as the Infiniti JX35, sans the hybrid drivetrain, since last year. Remember when Infiniti went through its alphabet soup naming exercise? The JX35 is now the QX60. What’s new...

  • 2014 Hyundai Equus
    2014 Hyundai Equus: Upping The Ante Against The Luxury Establishment

    When Hyundai first revealed its Equus several years ago, adding a model to compete with the likes of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Lexus LS, or Jaguar XJ, among others, seemed downright outlandish. But what was seen as far-fetched then is now seeming quite smart. Now for 2014, as previewed at the 2013...

  • 2014 Kia Soul
    Kia Bares Its (2014) Soul In New York, Complete With Live Photos

    Though Kia has, on occasion, missed the mark with vehicles in the United States (such as its Borrego SUV), there’s no denying that its Soul “urban passenger vehicle” is a solid hit that seems to defy demographics. Though pitched at Millennial buyers, we’ve seen plenty of...

  • 2014 Bentley Flying Spur
    2014 Bentley Flying Spur Live Photos From The New York Auto Show

    Bentley didn’t muck around with the redesign of its Flying Spur, which for the latest generation stands alone rather than being just the four-door member of the Continental range. On the outside, the changes are more evolutionary than revolutionary, consisting of a revised greenhouse that...

  • 2015 Volvo V60 R-Design

    Once, Volvo wagons roamed the U.S. landscape, shuttling families to and from soccer practice and Boy Scout meetings in the days before SUVs and crossovers. Volvo even managed to carve out a niche in the performance wagon segment with its Volvo Turbo Wagon, boasting that until Ferrari built a wagon, this was as good as it got. With the exception of Volvo’s wagon-based XC60 and XC70 crossovers, Volvo wagons have sadly disappeared from the Swedish brand’s product line. There’s some good news for wagon fans on the horizon, though: Volvo has confirmed that the new V60 will be...

  • 2014 Jaguar XJR Live Photos
    2014 Jaguar XJR: New York Auto Show Live Images

    Jaguar’s full-size XJ sedan has long been big on comfort, but it isn’t exactly the first thing that comes to mind when someone says “sport sedan,” even in Supercharged form. Jaguar is looking to correct that with the launch of its 2014 XJR, which promises to serve up equal...

  • 2014 BMW 328d, 2013 New York Auto Show
    2014 BMW 328d Live Photos: Diesel Torque + 3-Series = ???

    Great mileage and lots of torque: what's to argue with? That's at least the superficial theory behind the 2014 BMW 328d, the latest addition to the 3-Series lineup and to BMW's U.S. diesel fleet. Shown today at the New York Auto Show it looks…like any other 3-Series, for the most part...

  • 2014 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, 2013 New York Auto Show
    2014 Chevrolet Camaro Sees The Return Of The Z/28: Video

    For the Camaro faithful, nothing says “affordable performance” quite like the alphanumerical combination of one letter and two numbers: Z/28. Originally an option code for cars built to compete in the SCCA Trans-Am series, the name stuck and has been associated with fast Camaros since...

  • 2014 Kia Forte Koup SX, 2013 New York Auto Show
    2014 Kia Forte Koup: Live From New York

    Kia has a lot of interesting things going on these days for the design-conscious buyer, but sporty cars aren't among them. That has changed a bit today with the introduction of the all-new 2014 Forte Koup and its turbocharged, 201-horsepower SX model at the New York Auto Show. With a six-speed...

  • 2014 Jaguar XKR-S GT, 2013 New York Auto Show
    2014 Jaguar XKR-S GT Live Photos: 2013 New York Auto Show

    One of the meanest looking cars on show at the 2013 New York Auto Show this week is Jaguar’s 2014 XKR-S GT. Built by Jaguar’s special projects division, ETO, the XKR-S GT is essentially a race car that has been made street legal. Starting with an XKR-S, which is already no softy, the...
