Starting at $33,995, including destination fees, the MKC will be Lincoln's least-expensive new vehicle. That's probably a good thing, as the MKC is intended to turn the heads of younger buyers. Powered by a 240-horsepower 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder turbocharged engine in base from, the MKC comes with standard front wheel drive.

  • 2015 Chrysler 200 spy shots

    The current Chrysler 200 was a substantive improvement over the previous Sebring, which many considered to be such a poorly executed car that it became a byword for low quality. Soon, Chrysler will replace the much-improved 200 with an even better car--or so it hopes--in the form of the 2015 Chrysler 200, spied for the first time here. As you can see, the exterior design is considerably more attractive than the rather awkward shell of the current 200, shedding its budget-bred lines for much more elegant curves. Even under the poor lighting of a night photo shoot, the car our spies are calling...

  • 2015 BMW M4

    Audi has revealed its new Le Mans prototype that it hopes will see it victorious in the 2014 season of the World Endurance Championship.
