Chrysler has given us an early look at a new Mopar-modified version of its mid-size 200 sedan. Called the 2012 Chrysler 200 Super S, it builds up the 200’s sleek urban look with more refined, articulated design details; in advanced form, it improves its performance, too.

Chrysler has expanded its 300 sedan lineup with a new model targeted at blue bloods with a green conscience. The new model is the 2012 Chrysler 300 Luxury Series, one the automaker touts as its most luxurious and fuel-efficient flagship ever. Starting with the luxury, the special 300 sedan gets...

Ramaciotti retired from designing cars in 2005...

Dodge will almost certainly introduce a new compact model at the upcoming Detroit Auto Show, and we now know that it won't carry the Hornet name.

Hybrid vehicles may still not sell in high volumes but automakers will be forced to offer more of the electrically-aided vehicles in order to meet tough new CAFE standards proposed for 2025. Additionally, the tougher regulations will also see the introduction of more diesel vehicles in the U.S...

After feeling the urge to find myself a clean Eagle Premier last week, I got to thinking about the Chrysler products that the Premier spawned after Chrysler absorbed all that Renault DNA through its acquisition of AMC. Remember how futuristic the first LH Platform Chryslers looked? OK, now forget...

Anyone want 150, zero-mile, right-hand drive 1997 Chrysler Neons? No, us neither. But for anyone out there who does, such a thing is actually available right now. The large stock of essentially brand new Neons is being sold in Singapore by Arete Trading Pte Ltd. We've no idea how they've come to...

Photos by Alex Bellus Say you have a family of four plus a dog, a job downtown as a mid-level executive, and you are a proud American. What do you drive? While you'd love to have a muscle car, your wife says a two-door just isn't practical right now. Well, let me introduce you to the new 2012...

Every once in a while we get a vehicle in the MotorAuthority Garage that is just begging us to lay some rubber down.

From time to time our resident revisitor of Guilty Pleasures, Murilee Martin, presents a car that's ugly, weird, or otherwise socially handicapped, but is still lovable anyway.

Today, Sergio Marchionne says the 2012 Charger and Chrysler 300 V-6 models, when equipped with the eight-speed, will achieve 31 mpg. That's not quite as...

When a new car is launched, the manufacturer typically provides the media with a few minutes of "B-roll" footage, to be used for voiceovers and the like.
