General Motors has taken the wraps off the first of its all-new models planned for next month’s Detroit Auto Show. The vehicle is the 2010 Chevrolet Equinox compact crossover, which also debuts GM’s new compact direct-injection petrol engine range. Chevrolet expects nearly two-thirds of...

GM Performance Parts (GMPP) will be offering 'body in white' packages for the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro, with sales expected to begin in the first quarter of 2009. Body in white refers to the stage in automotive production when the car's sheet metal has been assembled, but components such as the...

We've all heard the argument for why someone drives that big SUV instead of a fuel-sipping mini-car on their epic two-hour commute: crash safety. And while there's a good bit of sense to that point, at least from the SUV driver's perspective, small cars are improving their safety marks according to...

With all that's going on in Washington lately, the slow economy and a general apathy or even hostility toward the automotive industry, it's nice to see a technological bright spot on the horizon. While it's not a ground-breaking or earth-shattering development, General Motors' fuel cell test fleet...

As set out in Maslow's hierarchy of needs, basic survival must first be established before one can move on to worry about the esoteric concerns of philosophy, morality or ethics. In an odd twist of logic, however, America's car companies have been forced to premise their immediate survival on their...

Even as America's carmakers plead their case before the U.S. Congress today, the executive branch has rejected $16 billion in grant requests through the DOE's retooling program. The rejection came in the form of a letter to the carmakers earlier this week from Energy Secretary Samuel Bodman. Of the...

Previously we reported that GM CEO Rick Wagoner would be driving a Malibu hybrid to Washington for this week's auto industry bailout hearings, however it has come to light that he will actually be driving the company's much anticipated Chevrolet Volt plug-in hybrid. Wagoner will be driving a...

General Motors may be struggling for cash at the moment but that doesn't mean it’s skimping on the customer programs for its halo sports car, the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1. Every customer that purchases a ZR1 will receive a trip to the Bob Bondurant Driving School in Arizona to learn the finer...

We first reported on the C3R Chevrolet Corvette Stingray project at the start of this month, and now we can confirm that the original design has been updated slightly to give it a more aggressive and planted stance. The new C3R is a retro-styled homage to the 1969 Corvette Stingray, but unlike many...

General Motors' Kappa platform has been widely praised for its performance characteristics (if also found somewhat lacking in ergonomics), so its choice as the basis of a custom V8-swap is in many ways unsurprising. It is, however, sure to be inspiring with a 400hp Corvette engine under the hood of...

The striking Camaro Black Concept we reported on earlier is just one of a handful of new Camaro concepts Chevrolet is planning for this month’s SEMA Auto Show. The carmaker has just released images and a few minor details about the complete lineup, which is set to include the aforementioned...

Chevrolet has revealed several images for a Camaro concept vehicle that will be on display at the upcoming SEMA Auto Show in Las Vegas. The concept is the Camaro ‘Black’, and as its name suggests the new muscle car features an all-black exterior plus some unique additions to give it a...

Since the Nissan GT-R scorched the Nurburgring in just 7 minutes 29 seconds and change earlier this year, speculation about the 650hp (485kW) Corvette ZR-1's potential times has run rampant. That speculation was brought to an end in July with the mighty American powerhouse lapping the Nordschleife...

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...

General Motors’ Corvette brand will lose its chief at the start of next month when Tom Wallace retires amid rumors of an indefinite hold on development of the C7 Corvette. His successor, Gene Stefanyshyn, is currently the vehicle line executive of rear-wheel-drive vehicles at GM, and will add...

General Motors is drastically cutting costs as it tries to ride out the current auto market slump, which is expected to ease by around 2010. The ailing carmaker is burning through approximately $1 billion in cash per month, a figure that it is hoping to reduce by downsizing its workforce, reducing...

An American auction house will be selling off one of the rarest and most valuable Corvettes in history – the mighty 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport, chassis no. 002. Often referred to as an enigma in motor racing history the Grand Sport was General Motor's contender to Ford's formidable...

Building the next generation of cars is often easier than deciding which should be built, or how they'll be built, if General Motors' trouble with the Epsilon II platform and its large sedan lineup is any indication. Nevertheless, it appears that GM is still working on reviving the Chevrolet Impala...

There are all manner of rumors concerning the next-generation C7 Corvette, with stories ranging from the possibility of a mid-engined platform to AWD powertrains and even the arrival of a dual-clutch version. Although there isn’t much substance to any of these rumors, one of them that’s...

While previously we reported that General Motors had revealed the prices of the base 2010 Chevrolet Camaro LS as well as the V8-powered SS model, the full price list for all upcoming 2010 Chevrolet Camaro models and their options has finally been leaked. The list reveals dealer costs, recommended...
