| Alternate Take: Maybe the Plymouth Prowler Wasn’t a Pointless Retro Rod After All |
Dec 18th, 2015 |
|
The Plymouth Prowler doesn’t have a sterling reputation in the automotive press. At the time of its 1997 debut, it was criticized for packing a 3.5-liter V-6 in a body that screamed for a V-8; today, its Syd Mead retrofuture styling has gone out of vogue. By the time it was discontinued in 2002, wearing […]

| Halftime Update: 2016.5 Mazda CX-5 Gets More Standard Content, New Pricing |
Dec 18th, 2015 |
|
It’s a holiday miracle! Or, more realistically, it’s merely Mazda reacting to what customers want. Mazda is introducing the rare mid-model-year update to its CX-5 crossover, which was just refreshed for 2016, dubbing the result a “2016.5” model and adding a few key features as standard equipment. These days, if a car doesn’t come with […]

| Yes, Please: Lamborghini Considers More RWD Huracán Variants |
Dec 18th, 2015 |
|
The launch of the Huracán LP580-2 effectively gives Lamborghini two different Huracán platforms on which to base other models, and the company’s insistence that we should not see its newest variant as being merely a base version leads to wonder whether any other variants will be allowed to share its power-oversteering, fun-to-drive ethos. There definitely won’t be a […]

| 2016 Fiat 500X 1.4L Manual Tested: Is Pop on Top? |
Dec 18th, 2015 |
|
Base models with a low price point have existed practically since the dawn of the automotive age, with the express purpose of luring buyers into showrooms, where smiling salespeople then tempt them into more-expensive models. But one relatively recent development is that in some vehicle families, if you want a manual transmission your only choice […]

| 2017 Honda Ridgeline Backs Its Thing Up for the Camera |
Dec 18th, 2015 |
|
Like a naughty Instagram photo, Honda’s new Ridgeline pickup truck has scooted its rear up to a camera lens and snapped a butt selfie ahead of its debut at the 2016 Detroit auto show. The resultant image is far more revealing, then, than a typical pre-reveal “teaser” photo—if slightly less titillating than Instagram’s best—and gives […]

| Dynamism! Actual Words! Acura Teases “Precision Concept” |
Dec 18th, 2015 |
|
Determined to once again prove that the Germans don’t have a lock on deeming their creations “precise,” Acura calls back to its caliper-waving origin with the new Precision Concept for the Detroit auto show. Teased here before its official reveal next month, Acura claims the new car will “help set the direction for future Acura […]
