  • Tesla Model X at 2013 Detroit Auto Show

    The Tesla Model X crossover is the next vehicle expected from electric automaker Tesla. While we’ve seen the exterior styling of the Model X (including its unique “falcon wing” rear doors) prior to this week’s Detroit Auto Show, what’s new and significant is the “interior exploration” that the automaker is currently highlighting. Tesla hopes to give prospective buyers an idea of the different colors and materials that will likely be available in the production Model X. The example on display blends black and white leather to add contrast to the three...

  • Toyota's Furia Concept
    Sporty Furia Concept Previews Next Toyota Corolla: 2013 Detroit Auto Show

    Toyota has finally pulled the covers off its Furia concept, and we can now confirm it is indeed a preview of the next-generation Corolla compact sedan. But that may not necessarily be a terrible thing. The current Corolla is as bland as compact cars come. But this concept features sharper lines...

  • Honda Urban SUV Concept revealed at 2013 Detroit Auto Show

  • MINI Paceman John Cooper Work live photos, 2013 Detroit Auto Show

    The MINI John Cooper Works Paceman is already familiar--if not quite pleasing--to our eyes. But do the official details on MINI's latest car persuade us to want to like it? Close, but not quite. You see, this is arguably the most confusing and least attractive cut of MINI's one-sausage-many-lengths theory of design. Pairing the high-riding and soft-roading qualities of the Countryman with the enthusiast-focused John Cooper Works formula could have resulted in a three-door MINI Paceman Baja Edition--a sort of micro--Raptor. Instead, it leaves us with a John Cooper Works Paceman, good for 6.5...

    Hyundai HCD-14 Genesis Concept: The Future Of Hyundai's Premium Range

    Ten years ago, if you'd said Hyundai would hold a nine percent market share in the premium large sedan segments, you'd probably have been laughed out of whatever wigwam you'd been smoking your peyote in.

  • 2014 Chevrolet Corvette

    Direct from its debut just moments ago at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, we have the first live photos of the stunning new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. Yes, we say Stringray as Chevy has decided to commemorate one of its most legendary models--the ’63 Sting Ray--with its latest ‘Vette, while also delivering the cutting-edge style the nameplate is known for. As we’re sure many readers will lament, the Corvette’s iconic round tail lights are gone, replaced instead with a set that's more reminiscent of the Camaro. There’s a chance they’re only here for the...

  • 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray

    It's finally here, folks, and it looks great. But will the handling and performance of the seventh-generation 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, plus the improved interior and redesigned exterior, make for a substantial upgrade over the outgoing--and very capable--car? The shape of the C7, as well as its return to the Stingray sub-title, hint at the past of the Corvette, bringing the best of its formative years into modern focus. Free of any played-out retro feel, while paying homage to its own history, the 2014 Corvette has managed a subtle balance--with not-so-subtle design cues. The round tail...

Now, there's a new small Benz coming, and soon--but will the driving wheels make all the difference with the 2014 CLA 250? With the CLA, Mercedes-Benz...

    The air is crisp, the Snoreastercanepocalypse has become a traveling road show, and most of the automotive industry is headed to Detroit for a couple of days of mixing fantasy, reality, and the cynicism that passes for a critical eye with enough booze, pork fat, and product promises to float an oil...
