    The 2016 Detroit Auto Show is now well and truly over, at least for the media, so here’s a look at some of the highlights. Starting things off is the 2017 Lincoln Continental, which goes on sale later this year as the replacement for the aging MKS. Though toned down from last year’s Continental concept, the production version still has plenty of presence and an interior built better than any Ford Motor Company [NYSE:F] product we’ve seen in a long time. We're glad to report that Lincoln finally appears serious about its comeback. Lincoln’s comeback won’t be an...

  • Production-Intent Ford GT, 2016 Detroit Auto Show
    Here's what changed on the Ford GT for production

    Last month a photo of what was supposedly a production-intent Ford GT surfaced on the Internet. Turns out, that photo was of a production-intent GT buck. As in, it wasn't a real car, just a design buck. That was then, this is now. Ford Motor Company [NYSE:F] quietly placed a real working GT that...

With SUVs now outselling sedans in the United States, the move makes sense for Ford. We’re not just talking redesigns of existing models. Speaking with USA Today, Ford product chief Raj Nair said the four SUVs will be new additions to the lineup. Ford wasn’t willing to comment on the identity of any of the SUVs but we already have a few clues. ALSO SEE: 2017...

    Mercedes-Benz’s E-Class is described by the automaker as the “core” of its brand, and with the current model enjoying sales of almost 50,000 units last year in the United States alone it’s easy to understand why. Now there’s a new generation, one that’s more...

  • VLF Force 1 V10, 2016 Detroit auto show

    The Force 1 supercar designed by Henrik Fisker and developed together with VLF Automotive (formerly VL) has been unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show, and it turned out the car is based on a donor Dodge Viper. You’d be hard pressed to guess the two are related, though, thanks to the Force 1’s all-new body which is composed completely of carbon fiber. This helps get the curb weight pegged at 3,395 pounds. The interior has also been dressed up with some tasteful quilted leather and enhanced with a handful of amenities, one of which is wine holder. DON'T MISS: Hellcat-Powered Jeep Grand...

    How often can you say that Acura wowed the crowd with its styling? Sure, the 2017 NSX is a looker, but it's a supercar and we've seen it for so long now that it no longer inspires passion.

  • 2017 Genesis G90  -  2016 Detroit Auto Show live photos

    Hyundai’s new Genesis luxury brand held its first press conference outside of Korea, at this week's 2016 Detroit Auto Show. The newly established brand has just one model at present, the Hyundai Equus-replacing G90, but it’s the flagship and it heralds what’s to come for the rest of the Genesis lineup. We’re talking five more models due by the end of the decade. Focusing on the G90, the new sedan will go on sale later this year, as a 2017 model. We don’t think more established rivals like the German trio have anything to worry about but we could see the G90...
