Nov 15th, 2012 |
|
The last time we heard, Chrysler was pondering whether or not to add jobs to its Warren truck facility, located just outside Detroit. This idea surfaced even before the 2013 Ram 1500 debuted earlier this year and now it’s official. Chrysler will be adding a third shift to its Warren facility to keep up with [...]

| 2013 Toyota RAV4 Does the Slow Undress in Video Before Los Angeles Reveal |
Nov 15th, 2012 |
|
One of the most popular crossovers for sale, the Toyota RAV4 is spacious, fuel-efficient, and a surprise dragstrip hero when powered by its current 3.5-liter V-6 engine option. But it’s also old, having staved off newer competition since its 2007 introduction. It’s in need of a replacement. Badly. And that’s exactly what it’s getting. Bowing [...]

American muscle fans, rejoice! In addition to the previously-posted information on the next Corvette, we have new 2015 Ford Mustang photos, and they’re not blurry.

Nov 15th, 2012 |
|
It used to be that the best BMW for winter-weather driving was an Audi (which, as you should know, isn’t a BMW product at all). Then BMW said it could build a better mousetrap and developed its own all-wheel-drive system. But BMW’s ultimate winter driving machine may not be a car at all: It’s a [...]

| 2013 Ford C-Max Energi First Drive: Go Long—To the Tune of 600-Plus Miles of Range |
Nov 15th, 2012 |
|
Ford recently introduced the five-seat C-Max to America; in a nutshell, it’s a Fiesta platform–based, high-roofed wagon. But whereas the European C-Max is available with conventional drivetrains—and seven seats—the U.S.-spec version follows the Toyota Prius’s script in being all-hybrid, all the time. That makes it Ford’s first dedicated hybrid model for our market, a move [...]

| 2013 Honda Crosstour: It’s Improved, but It’s Still Ambiguous |
Nov 15th, 2012 |
|
Considering Honda’s Accord is all new for 2013, you might expect that the Accord-based crossover called Crosstour would get a similar makeover. But the common folk’s X6 carries on unswervingly. Just like the hurriedly refreshed 2013 Civic, Honda’s affordable family crossover gets mostly cosmetic changes. But there also is a slightly more powerful V-6 engine, [...]

| An Advanced Look at Chevy’s 134-hp Spark EV |
Nov 15th, 2012 |
|
There are still hot-rodders at Chevy, and they work in the electric-car division. “Build a small EV,” the management said. “We’ll stuff a high-output motor in a tiny car,” the engineers said. And they did. When the Spark EV begins arriving at dealers in the summer of 2013, it’ll be powered by a 134-hp electric [...]
