Saab 9-4X
Seems like the pictures from the South American site were actually the concept from last year.But this is the real thing. And it still looks really nice.The MPG numbers from that site didn’t make a lot of sense either. I think it’ll get pretty decent mileage out of a 2.0 Liter Turbo. We’ll see…

2010 Ford Mustang interior
First official picture.It looks like they paid attention to quality, more than a complete new theme.Which is great. I still like the current interior.And I don’t think it’s that cheap for a car starting at around $20 000.But this already seems better. In tune with what Ford has been doing lately. The Flex has a… Continue reading 2010 Ford Mustang interior

For the Chinese market. As you can see, this is basically the new Opel Insignia with a Buick nose.We are getting something much better in the US. Our new La Crosse will be based on the Insignia but will have its own design.Just like the next Malibu.We should be getting the original Insignia design as… Continue reading New Buick Regal

This one seems to be for the European market.It seems that, so far, Honda has no intention to bring this car over to the US.But remember, that’s what they used to say about the Fit….

2010 Chevrolet Equinox
The current Equinox seems to almost have disappeared. I don’t know anyone who would even think about it. Weird… I guess it’s really time for a new one.This next model will be the Saab 9-4 X’s cheaper cousin. Let’s hope it’s small and light enough to get the 2.4 Liter from the Malibu. I don’t… Continue reading 2010 Chevrolet Equinox

Saab 9-4X
I guess this is the production model found on the Saab site. In Chile …Of all places. It also mentions 245hp from the 2.0 Liter engine. Not bad.And 21 inch wheels!If anyone can translate 10.6 Liter per 100km in the City and 15.9 hwy, we could even get an idea of the gas mileage… It… Continue reading Saab 9-4X

2011 Chevrolet Volt videos!
Quality isn’t that great.That’s because they didn’t get Vince Burlapp to shoot them.You don’t park a car in the sun to film the interior… Next time they’ll know better…

Audi A1
I know it looks good, but this is still just an illustration. Audi will be back in the small car market (After the A2 a few years ago) with some competition for the Mini, Alfa MiTo, Fiat 500 and other fancy tiny European hatchbacks.Not sure if they will try it over here. But they might.… Continue reading Audi A1

Porsche controls VW
It’s official.Porsche now owns over 35% of VW, which under German law,gives it control of the company. What does this mean for VW?Porsche cars have been much more reliable than VWs in the past few years. But they also make far fewer cars. Porsche will be making an offer to control Audi as well. Is… Continue reading Porsche controls VW

Live pictures from the Volt Event
Well… That black roof doesn’t look like a glass roof does it… It just looks like a black roof. Painted..At least on this pre-production model. Actual production is actually a bit over 2 years away. That’s amazing!I can’t remember any manufacturer showing off a production car 2 years before it comes out…

Saab 9X Air concept
Another one.Another Saab concept.What Saab needs is new cars, not more concepts. This is , again, supposed to give us an idea of what the all new small 9-1 might look like.I don’t think so. This looks way too much like a concept car.We’re lucky if the front end is 50% close to production… How… Continue reading Saab 9X Air concept

2011 Production Volt
Finally. The car without the suits in front of it.And the interior too.(Which almost looks like Apple was at the design meetings). It looks really nice so far. Even in that not so cool color.For most people, this will look more like a real car than the Prius. But the big question is the price.And… Continue reading 2011 Production Volt

Peugeot Prologue Concept
Well, it’s pretty much what it is.. A prologue to a production model. the upcoming Peugeot 3008 (or whatever they decide to call it, will be very close to this. And will finally give Peugeot something to fight against the very popular Renault Megane Scenic. And it’s not an SUV. Like the one they have… Continue reading Peugeot Prologue Concept

Audi S3 Cabriolet
It was just a matter of time. The Convertible Audi A3 will get an S3 version soon.As these pictures from a German underground parking lot show us. And just like the other A3 versions, it looks great.Just look at these seats. That’s pretty amazing.The S3 is powered by a 265hp version of the 2.0 Liter… Continue reading Audi S3 Cabriolet

Mercedes Benz Fascination Concept Video
I like it. The next CLK should be a really nice car if it turns out close to this. Even without the hatchback.mercedes needs to start designing cars that look more upscale.I really like the current S Class. And the C class actually does have a pretty upscale look to it.But most of their other… Continue reading Mercedes Benz Fascination Concept Video

Chevrolet Malibu drive, to Malibu…
So far so good. I did drive the Malibu before in Memphis, so it feels pretty familiar.The new 6 speed auto is great. And smooth. Maybe not as super smooth as the VW 6 speed auto, but still very nice. Just a few notes:-The steering feel seems different than the 2.4 L Aura I was… Continue reading Chevrolet Malibu drive, to Malibu…
