The 2014 Detroit Auto Show is just over a month away, and Audi is planning something special: a concept so new it doesn't even have a name yet. It's just referred to as "the new Audi show car." So what is this beast? It's a crossover, but it only has two doors. It's sporty and intended for spirited driving, but it's also okay off-road. It's everything to everyone, apparently. While that's a nice idea, the reality of such compromised design often comes out as the least of all worlds, rather than the most--but we have faith in Audi's crossover capabilities, should this presage the new Q1 in...

The speculation goes on regarding the output of the next BMW M3 and M4--especially now that the 2014 4-Series is out in the wild. Now, a new blurb at F80 Bimmerpost suggests the upcoming BMW M3 will extract some 425 horsepower and 370 pound-feet of torque from the latest 3.0-liter in-line six-cylinder engine. In the M4, output will be 416 hp. The M cars won't get a bump in displacement, but power will be substantially higher than the current E90 3-Series M3's 4.0-liter V-8 engine. Left off this cycle of the rumor mill, are rumors of an upsized 3.3-liter six with 450 hp. Instead, the new...

The HCD-14 itself is rather impractically styled...

In Greek mythology, Atlas was burdened with carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. In the Ford product line, that task goes to its F-150 pickup, which sells in higher volumes (and likely at higher margins) than any other vehicle in its catalog. It’s fitting, then, that Ford would opt to name its pickup truck of the future concept the Atlas, since this truck will carry Ford on its shoulders, too. Debuting at this week’s Detroit Auto Show, the Atlas gives truck buyers a lot to be hopeful for. Rugged good looks aside, the Atlas was clearly designed by those who use trucks...
