    Looking for some nifty car art but can't make it to Miami this weekend? No problem -- well, not as long as you live in Los Angeles.

    The MA List: 6 Concept Cars That Cried Wolf!

    Concept cars are a mixed breed. Sometimes, they're the real thing slightly disguised, and sometimes they're way-off abstractions in the Tomorrowland vein. In a handful of cases, concept cars are annoying knock-offs of the boy who cried wolf, without the bit that makes the fairy tale appealing. You...

    Fiat To Sell Part Of Ferrari Stake Before Chrysler Merger?

    According to Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne, Fiat may sell off part of its Ferrari stake before its merger of Chrysler into the group. The move may seem counterintuitive, divesting part of one of the world's most iconic brands for the sake of one of the world's most troubled, but Marchionne explains...

    2011 Chrysler 200 Priced: Starts From $19,995

    The Sebring name has died a quiet death, and few will miss it. In its place comes the 2011 Chrysler 200, a similar but better-looking take on the same segment, and a car Chrysler promises will be much-improved. It's certainly priced to compete, starting from $19,995 including the $750 destination...

  • 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    Apart from its extensive North American distribution network and production base, Chrysler doesn’t have much to offer its new strategic partner Fiat--especially when it comes to actual product. There is the new Pentastar V-6 engine as well as the Chrysler 300C’s LX rear-wheel drive platform, though with emissions and fuel economy regulations tightening both of these items have lost much of their shine. One bright star in Chrysler’s portfolio is the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee, which was developed with former partner Daimler and shares much in common with the next-generation...

  • U.S.-spec 2011 Fiat 500 Sport

    The Fiat 500 is due to begin sales here in the U.S. by the end of the year, and Chrysler is now beginning to choose the dealers that will get the car--and represent Fiat in the U.S. The choices made will be critical, as Fiat's reputation from its last run in the U.S. isn't exactly stellar. The first phase of dealers appointed are already chosen and ready for the first orders of the 500. More dealers are currently being "worked with" to bring the car to more markets by the end of the year. In total, Chrysler hopes to have 119 markets covered, primarily in "areas chosen for their high...

Big ones. If you're familiar with the Green Hornet storyline, you know...

    2011 Chrysler 200 Preview

    When the Chrysler 200C EV made its debut at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show, the automotive world was at once shocked by the attractive design and pessimistic about its then-electric drivetrain. While we don't get the 200C EV shown, we do get one much better looking, if still somewhat Sebring-ish, sedan...

    2011 Chrysler 200 Partially Revealed In New Teasers

    Few who've driven the Chrysler Sebring have much in the way of kind words to say about it. A coarse engine, an interior that wouldn't pass muster at Fisher-Price and dated exterior design combine to make a car that's destined for a myriad of "worst of" lists. And Chrysler realizes that, in a big...
