Late last week Mercedes-Benz announced that it would start building a new model at its U.S. plant in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, by 2015 though failed to mention exactly what it would be. Now a leaked image allegedly taken during the announcement at the plant has surfaced online, indicating that the new model is likely to be a BMW X6 rivaling coupe-like crossover. Such a vehicle from Mercedes-Benz has been rumored to be in the works for some time now, as is a version from Audi. This image, uploaded to Twitter by @Dawn_Kent and first picked up by Jalponik, shows the silhouette of a tall-riding...

The Frankfurt Motor Show is fast approaching, even though the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance has yet to happen, and the previews and teasers for the German show are coming just as quickly. The latest to arrive is the Jaguar C-X16 concept, teased here in this first official sketch.

Lexus has already handed out engineering samples of the 2012/2013 Lexus GS 350 to select portions of the automotive press, we've spied it on several occasions, and we know it's coming to Pebble Beach in just under a month's time. But now Lexus of Europe has joined in the pre-party with driving footage of a disguised GS. The video is a brief minute-and-a-half of soundless cruising over mostly wet roads, revealing almost nothing new, but it at least gives some idea as to the car's demeanor in action. It also gives us a decent look at the front and rear lighting, though it's veiled in a sheet of...

Arrinera's Polish (Yes, Polish) SupercarNo, that's not the latest Lamborghini Murcielago tune. No, really, it's not. It's an all-new supercar from none other than Poland.

Hermann Brandt Hartwig (HBH), the deranged Danish minds that helped bring to life the spectacularly excessive Zenvo ST1, are on to their next project: a V-12 powered, mid-engined supercar based on the Aston Martin V12 Vantage. They released the first teaser picture this week, giving a good look at the profile of the car. Much smoother than the sharp lines and shapes of the Zenvo, the teaser shows a poised, powerful body. As with most mid-engined supercars, the cabin has been pushed forward, but in more of a natural, unforced way than is the case with most, the long, flowing roof line melding...
