Infiniti took its Q50 Eau Rouge prototype to the 2014 Goodwood Festival of Speed last weekend, and we have video of the car during its run up Goodwood’s famous hill climb. Unfortunately, Infiniti chose to edit out the sound of the car, which is a shame since the car actually sounds quite...

Audi is set to introduce a redesigned R8 supercar for the 2016 model year, so that means the current model, first revealed all the way back in 2006, will soldier on for one more year. To help keep sales brimming, Audi is offering a number of special features on the R8 for the 2015 model year, one...

The big luxury automakers have been engaged in a power war for decades now. Jaguar gave its 1990s XJR 370 horsepower so BMW made a 400-horse M5. Merc and Audi went better than that so BMW made a 500-hp M5. Since then we've seen forays well into the 500s and more, and now the same battle is...

These are the latest spy shots of the stretched 'Maybach' version of the latest-generation Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Up to six different S-Class variants will eventually be launched, including this S-Class Maybach, which we’re expecting to be revealed later this year, as a 2015 model. Once a...

A senior executive at BMW’s M division has quashed rumors that the German automaker may launch an M version of the stylish 4-Series Gran Coupe. BMW does sell an M6 Gran Coupe and considered adding a smaller M4 Gran Coupe to the lineup at one point, but has chosen to forgo it. “That is a...

Honda is as much known for its engines as it is vehicles, and it seems to matter little what those engines actually go in. Sporty little Civic? No problem. Crazy six-cylinder, 250cc 1960s Grand Prix bike? Yep. Ride-on lawn mower? That too. Honda also does aircraft, and its first one, the HondaJet...

One of the ways Alan Mulally helped Ford from going under during the 2008 global financial crisis was by offloading the individual brands that made up its Premier Auto Group, such as Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo, which at the time were a huge drain on the company’s finances...

We’re sure that for most people hopping behind the wheel of Bentley’s Mulsanne flagship sedan, the car’s 505 horsepower and massive 752 pound-feet of torque will be more than adequate. However, it appears there’s been sufficient demand for a more potent Mulsanne to warrant...

The Lexus IS was all-new for 2014 but the new model year sees the stylish sedan receive some minor updates. Due to go on sale this fall, the 2015 Lexus IS gets LED fog lights, standard Siri Eyes Free and a handful of cabin enhancements. Siri Eyes Free is designed for iPhone 4S and iPhone 5...

Jaguar will soon phase out its R-S badge used on its performance cars like the XFR-S and XKR-S, and replace it with a new SVR badge. Sister company Land Rover will also use the SVR badge for new performance models it’s planning, the first of which will be a Range Rover Sport SVR, previewed in...

Life is good. Life is especially good when you’re in Tuscany behind the wheel of the 2015 Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG Coupe. Life gets downright magical when threading your way through hills dotted with castellos, pointing the S63 two-door down a picturesque winding two-lane and loosing the horses...

Mercedes-Benz is working on a stretched version of its latest-generation S-Class that is expected to debut at the end of the year and revive the Maybach name as a new trim level. However, this won’t be the most upmarket version of the S-Class as Mercedes is also working on an extra-long...

Last week Ferrari introduced a new one-off supercar developed on behalf of a client by the Special Projects division, the F12 TRS, whose lines were inspired by the 1957 250 Testa Rossa and whose owner is believed to be a British resident. Now we have details on a second one-off Ferrari developed by...

We’ve just driven the regular versions of the all-new 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class, and found them to be absolutely brilliant, but the model we’re most concerned with is yet to be launched. We’re talking about the model born out of the fire and brimstone of the AMG hot house in...

Daimler and its alliance partner Renault Nissan have confirmed plans to build next-generation compact cars for their respective Mercedes-Benz and Infiniti brands in Aguascalientes, Mexico, the site of a Nissan plant since 1992. Approximately 1 billion euros ($1.36 billion) will be invested in the...

What's the furthest you've ever driven on a single tank of gas? 300 miles? 400? 500 even? With modest fuel tank sizes and so-so economy, most cars sold in the U.S. won't go a great deal further than this. Some of the special diesel models sold in Europe will though, and a model that's certainly...

BMW's littlest coupe earns a "good" rating in the IIHS small overlap front crash test.

You’re looking at the latest spy shots of a prototype for the second-generation Audi R8. The car has been developed alongside the new Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4, with which it shares a platform, though its sales launch is still about a year away, which means we’re likely to see...

The BMW 1-Series is no more. Nope. It’s been replaced, by this: the new 2-Series. It’s longer, wider, and roomier, and a little more expensive—but with the turbo six, it’s as close to a classic M3 as you can get. Let’s start under the hood. You’ll find either a...

The latest versions of Cadillac’s ATS and CTS sedans are relatively new on the market, with both lines receiving complete redesigns for 2013 and 2014 respectively. However, both the ATS and CTS are scheduled to receive subtle updates for the 2015 model year, with the most prominent change...
