Sedans

We know you've seen the photos and read up on the details of Buick's new compact luxury sedan, but if you weren't in Detroit, you didn't get to see the unveiling as it happened. We've got you covered. The flash and bang is all done with pretty quickly, followed by a detailed description of the car...

If you haven't seen the 2011 Chrysler 300 by now, we hope you're recovering well from your coma. Plastered around the web and everywhere else Chrysler could get it, the new 300 takes the sinister look of the original and brings it up to date without changing too much. It looks pretty sharp in...

Aveo begets Sonic as Sebring begets 200. Trashing old, tarnished names and replacing them with new labels for fresher (or completely different) vehicles is nothing new. It's just popular this season. The 2011 Chrysler 200 does its best to step out of the shadow of the Playskool-inspired Sebring...

Buick’s foray into the burgeoning compact luxury segment has made its official debut today in the form of the new 2012 Buick Verano. The car is Buick’s third new model in the past two years and its first compact in decades, so understandably it managed to grab a lot of attention at the...

With new versions of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and BMW 5-Series launched over the past year or two, Audi’s entrant in the mid-size executive sedan segment, the A6, was starting to get a little long in the tooth compared with its rivals. However, that’s all set to change as the brand new...

With a fresh but familiar face, an aggressive all-American profile, and more features for the dollar than ever, the 2011 Chrysler 300 presents a compelling argument for looking beyond Acura and Lexus for your next upscale sedan. Priced from just $27,995, you might even save some cash in the...

Like the size and look of the new Chevrolet Cruze but think its packaging and trim are just a little too mainstream? Well, the new 2012 Buick Verano may be just what you’re looking for as it’s essentially a more upmarket version of the Chevy compact sedan. Making its debut at the 2011...

The Volkswagen NMS, due to replace the current Passat for North America, has been a long time coming. It's still not here, but VW has just let lose a new teaser ahead of its debut next week at the 2011 Detroit Auto Show. Along with the teaser is a new website VW has launched that allows users to...

Ford may have announced the demise of Mercury back in June--although the brand was effectively dead long before then--but the very last car to wear a Mercury badge finally rolled off the production line today. The particular model was a Mercury Grand Marquis, which sailed off into the sunset at...

Restyled and redesigned slightly for the 2012 year model, the new C-Class offers a more fluid, smoother look than its predecessor on the outside, and a new theme inside that reflects some of the higher-range sedans in Mercedes' stable. Chief on the improvements list--a list 2,000 parts long despite...

Earlier this month, we got our first look at the 2011 Chrysler 300, but aside from a handful of shots, were left to subsist mostly on detail close-ups. No more. The 2011 300 takes the look of its unique, but aging predecessor and transforms it, subtly, into something new. The same basic silhouette...

The Lexus ES has consistently proven to be a solid seller for the Japanese premium brand despite the car essentially being a reskinned Toyota Camry. Of the two, surprisingly, the Camry has been the more flexible and technologically advanced when it comes to powertrains, offering a gasoline-electric...

Raising capital to help pay for the development of a future vehicle is not a bad idea, and Tesla appears to be pulling it off well, generating 3,000 reservations for the planned 2012 Model S sedan at $5,000 a pop. That's $15 million. But are those early adopters being foolish? Perhaps they just...

We’re happy to report that rapper Fabolous, a.k.a. John David Jackson, is the proud owner of a new Aston Martin Rapide sedan. He was spotted in New Jersey recently visiting his local barber shop and we managed to scoop these images of his new ride, which reportedly cost him around $250,000...

The Chrysler 200, as re-worked as it is, still looks a lot like a Sebring to us. It's better--far better--than its predecessor, but we're still not sold on the transmogrification. The sportier Chrysler 200S, however, may just be the upgrade we're looking for. It won't be a world-beater, but it'll...

The current-generation Acura RL has been on the market since late 2004 and since then has only undergone one major facelift to keep it looking fresh amongst a sea of strong competitors. In 2011 that same car is soldiering on, receiving only minor updates to keep it ticking until a replacement...

The 166 was a premium executive sedan built by Alfa Romeo between 1998 and 2007 and was roughly the same size as a BMW 5-Series, one of its main rivals. A replacement for the Alfa Romeo flagship is currently in the works and is due in the next couple of years. Donning the 169 title, or possibly a...

The Lancia brand may be relatively unknown here in the U.S. but we got a taste of it back at the 2010 Detroit Auto Show last January where we saw a Lancia Delta hatchback rolled out wearing a Chrysler badge (pictured above). That was just a preview of what Fiat Group CEO Sergio Marchionne had...

Chrysler's model lineup hasn't changed much yet, but its cars are showing a new attitude and a new aesthetic. The latest image, revealing the interior in broader scope than before, leaked onto the web today. Just last month at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the automaker pulled the wraps off the 2011...

Plugging an existing hybrid system into an existing car isn't quite as easy as plugging into an outlet, but the team at BMW is making it look that way, with the recently-unveiled BMW ActiveHybrid 5 already moving from concept car to testing prototype. As these spy photos show, the car is not...
