  • Honda Accord Coupe Concept

    Just like last time, they are actually showing us the production version of the car early.Adding a few chrome bits here and there and calling it a concept. Looks like they were afraid to redesign it. And mostly added some character lines.Let’s hope they changed the sedan a bit more. (Make that a lot more…)They… Continue reading Honda Accord Coupe Concept

  • 2013 Toyoa Prius C

    Looking pretty much the same as the Japanese version we saw late last year. Still with what seems like plenty of hard plastic inside, and a rather bare bone looking interior. But, Toyota announced 2 important numbers:-53MPG City.-Under $19 000 to start. Which will make the “C” a huge hit for them. Great MGP is… Continue reading 2013 Toyoa Prius C

  • Lincoln MKZ Concept

    Just when Lincoln desperately need a great production model, they show us yet another concept.A good looking one, sure.But there has been many good looking Lincoln concepts in the past few years. (Whatever happened to the great looking MKR, or the Continental Concept???)None of them has ben translated in great looking cars. Once watered down… Continue reading Lincoln MKZ Concept

  • 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe

    I was very impressed by the Genesis Coupe when I got to drive one for a week last year.I though very few things were wrong with it. Focusing mainly in interior details.But this revised version with a new interior seems to have fixed all of this. Plus, the engines have also more power.The 2.0 Liter… Continue reading 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe

  • Acura ILX

    This seems to be a replacement for the TSX. Even though it is based on the Civic platform instead of the Euro Accord. A 2.0 Liter engine is standard, and a 2.4 Liter is an option.A new 1.5 Liter Hybrid model will also be available. Looks like its main competition would be the new Buick… Continue reading Acura ILX

  • 2013 Acura RDX

    Just when you though the RDX couldn’t get more boring, they come up with this.Which, to me, looks even older and less original than the current design. It is like if they are trying very hard to not sell any… The 4 Cylinder Turbo has been replace by the 3.5 Liter V6 used in pretty… Continue reading 2013 Acura RDX

  • Lincoln MKZ Concept

    Yes, a concept.They are somehow not ready to show us the real thing yet.And already the interior looks very similar to the new Fusion. I’m afraid thew next MKZ will just be a repeat of the current model: A Fusion with a new interior, a new front end and real lights. Or, maybe not….

  • VW E-Bugster Concept

    This one is just a concept.But I did hear from VW last year that there might very well be a production version of an Electric Beetle in a couple of years.On top of a Hybrid version that would use the same powertrain as the new Jetta Hybrid. For now, this concept gets the usual 100… Continue reading VW E-Bugster Concept

  • 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid

    The popular Hybrid option is, of course, back with the new design.The new 2012 Camry Hybrid showed very impressive numbers when it came out a few months ago.But the new Fusion looks like a winner with 47MPG city and 45MPG highway. Which is quite amazing.But not everything is in the numbers and we’ll have to… Continue reading 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid

  • 2013 Ford Fusion/Mondeo

    It looks like our US Fusion is the red car, while the white one is the new Mondeo for Europe. A much better looking car than the current Fusion, but not as much of a leap when compared to the current Mondeo. I am not sure this is really better looking than the Kia Optima… Continue reading 2013 Ford Fusion/Mondeo

  • Hyundai Veloster Turbo

    -201 HP from a small 1.6 Liter turbo-6 speed manual or auto-27/38 MPG Sounds fun. I just saw one Veloster in the streets and I thought it looked good. And fun. It’s not for everyone, but most fun cars aren’t. This new version sounds like good news.

  • 2013 Lincoln MKZ teaser

    A day after the new Fusion, we will get to see its cousin from Lincoln. But this is still basically the same car. Almost nobody can really pull it off these days. Except maybe Lexus with the ES. Which is closely related to the Camry, but has also been a constant success for the luxury… Continue reading 2013 Lincoln MKZ teaser

  • 2013 Nissan Pathfinder

    Nissan is still calling this a “Concept”. Just like they did with the Infiniti JX a few months ago.And just like the JX, this is pretty much what we will see in showrooms in a few months. It’s not really a concept. It uses the same platform and powertrain as the Infiniti. So expect a… Continue reading 2013 Nissan Pathfinder

  • VW Jetta Hybrid

    Will be powered by a 1.4 Liter Turbo engine with 150hp, and an electric motor.They are predicting 45MPG combined.Which is much better than the Diesel version. And better than the all new 2013 Camry Hybrid. A 7 speed DSG is the only transmission available. Hybrid seem to be more popular in the US than Diesel… Continue reading VW Jetta Hybrid

  • Mystery VW???

    This picture was just sent to me .Apparently taken from the VW display at the Detroit show.It doesn’t look like the Jetta Hybrid.What is it??? A new coupe concept based on the Passat?Concept version of the next Phaeton?

  • 2013 Cadillac ATS

    Finally. Official pictures of the real thing. And by now. No real surprise.The car actually looks really conservative to me. Following that same German sausage recipe of the same design in different sizes.It just looks like a smaller CTS. The front end is even less original and softer. Engines are:-2.5 Liter 4 cyinder. Same unit… Continue reading 2013 Cadillac ATS

  • 2013 Ford Fusion.

    Now the Fusion and the European model will be the same car.Just like the Escape and Kuga.And in the same manner, it is a huge leap forward compared to the US previous model.But it really seem a small improvement when compared to the Euro Mondeo. Which was already so much more modern looking than the… Continue reading 2013 Ford Fusion.

  • 2013/14 Toyota Corolla?

    This actually would be a huge improvement over the current generation.Even using small design cues from the GT 86 sports car. Not futuristic by any means, but it doesn’t need to. The Corolla still has one of the best image in the business. And Toyota still sells tons of the current, outdated version.Over 240 000… Continue reading 2013/14 Toyota Corolla?
