  • Land Rover Defender Concept 100 in Firenze Red

    The overwhelming success of the Range Rover Evoque has convinced Land Rover that the brand is onto something. Instead of offering only high-dollar, luxury SUVs for a narrow portion of the market, why not expand product offerings to cover as wide a range of potential buyers as possible? That seems to be the logic conveyed by Land Rover design director Gerry McGovern, who recently confirmed to Autocar that the brand has plans for expansion into new market segments. At last week’s opening of the New York Auto Show, McGovern was quoted as saying, “Land Rover will give much greater...

    Porsche has finally unveiled a successor for its hardcore Cayenne GTS, an SUV with sports car-like performance and which at the time of its launch was billed as one of the fastest production off-roaders on the planet.

    Lamborghini Trademarks 'Deimos' Name

    What’s in a name? In the case of the name “Deimos,” fear and dread, at least according to the ancient Greeks. Deimos, the son of Aphrodite and Ares, represents the terror brought by war, although he never actually appears in human form in Greek mythology. Car and Driver tells us...

    This Is Not The 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL Class AMG

    The 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL Class was just released at the 2012 New York Auto Show, large and in charge and much better looking to our eye than the previous model. It almost makes three rows sexy. But these images, from Mercedes-Benz's future vehicles page, could show an even more interesting take on...

  • New York City skyline

    While the opening press day of any auto show is typically the biggest and busiest, the second day at this week’s 2012 New York Show managed to have quite the number of new and exciting concept and product reveals to keep us entertained. While flashy luxury and sports models dominated the first press day, it was family vehicles and pickups that were the highlight on day two. Some of things we saw were significantly more fuel-efficient Ram pickups, radically-designed Toyota Avalons--yes, Avalons--and an all-new Infiniti electric luxury sedan, among many others. And while the lighter...

    2013 Hyundai Santa Fe debuts at 2012 New York auto show

    Hyundai’s Santa Fe crossover has been one of many success stories for the brand in recent years. Time has begun to pass it by, however, as most of its competitors have been revised in recent years, leaving the Santa Fe to soldier on wearing its blend-into-the-background styling. That’s...

    Land Rover is marking 25 years of doing business in the U.S. at this week’s 2012 New York Auto Show and has brought a bevy of vehicles, including several concepts and special editions, to help celebrate the milestone. One of the highlights is an updated version of the DC100 Concept first unveiled at the 2011 Frankfurt Auto Show. The latest version has been equipped for expedition use and further explores possible design directions for the future of the iconic Land Rover Defender. Also on show in New York is the odd Evoque Convertible Concept that debuted last month at the 2012 Geneva...

    Land Rover Looking To Launch More Expensive Range Rover

    With both Bentley and Lamborghini looking to launch new SUV models in the coming years, Land Rover may soon lose its edge of having the most expensive and most lavish off-roaders on the market. The Bentley and Lamborghini brands will undoubtedly be able to command much higher prices for their SUVs...

    A Land Rover Tour Of... Chernobyl?

    The premise behind Land Rover’s “Journey of Discovery” is both simple and noble: to commemorate the millionth Discovery model built, and to highlight the SUV’s unique abilities, an expedition will drive 8,000 miles in 50 days to raise money for the International Red Cross...

  • 2013 Lexus RX 450h

    The Lexus RX sits comfortably amidst the BMW X3, Audi Q5, Acura RDX, and Range Rover Evoque. But below it, the Audi Q3 and BMW X1 are snatching up bits of a segment that's not well-populated--at least in theory. Lexis is working to change that, according to the vice president of Lexus Europe. Speaking to AutoExpress, Andy Pfeiffenberger said the area of the brand's range below the RX will see some development "over the next few years." While that's a pretty vague statement, it doesn't take much reading between the lines to see a sub-RX model as its focus. The question as to what it might look...

    2013 Acura RDX first drive review

    If you've driven the previous Acura RDX, you know the definition of compromise. While it was, in many ways, ahead of its time, the RDX was rough, balky, and awkward as much as it was peppy, fun, and high-tech. Times have changed. The 2013 Acura RDX doesn't look all that much different from the last...
