The current lap record for an electric car at the Nurburgring-Nordschleife is 9:01.3, as set by the Peugeot EX1 Concept back in May of this year. Now Toyota, more specifically, Toyota Motorsports GmbH (TMG), is planning to set a new record for an electric car at the Green Hell, and it will attempt to do so with the prototype race car you see here...
Today’s headline probably comes as little surprise considering the Cadillac Escalade luxury SUV and its EXT sibling have been at the top of America’s most stolen vehicle list for the past several years. According to information compiled by the Highway Loss Data Institute (HLDI), an affiliate of the Insurance Institute for Highway...
Unlike the Land Rover Defender, which is expected to spawn a successor based on a new concept car headed for the 2011 Frankfurt Auto Show, the utilitarian Mercedes-Benz G-Glass is soon to meet its end. To celebrate its life, Mercedes unveiled the Final Edition and Edition Select models for the European market, but perhaps the German automaker is...
One of the big surprises of last weekend’s 2011 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance was the stunning Cadillac Ciel Concept, an imposing four-door convertible that its maker described as an exploration into a range-topping flagship. Designed under the guidance of GM design boss Ed Welburn, the Ciel is a very interesting direction for a new...
We already knew that the stunning Aston Martin V12 Zagato race car that tackled the grueling Nurburgring 24 Hours race earlier this year was likely to spawn a road-going version, and now, just a few weeks out from its debut at the 2011 Frankfurt Auto Show, the covers have come off the car. Only 150 examples of the V12 Vantage-based Aston Martin...
The first of Mercedes’ future small car family, the all-new 2012 Mercedes-Benz B-Class, has been revealed ahead of its official world debut in just a few weeks at the 2011 Frankfurt Auto Show. Substantially more agile and efficient than the model it replaces, the new B-Class is expected to draw in much more customers than ever before...
NASCAR star Kyle Busch had a run in with the law back in May when he was pulled over near his home in Mooresville, North Carolina for doing 128 mph in a 45 mph zone. The car he was driving was a bright yellow Lexus LFA supercar similar to the one pictured, which he had borrowed for a test drive. This week Busch plead guilty to speeding charges and...
We know that a new BMW 6-Series Gran Coupe is in the works, a car first previewed by the Concept Gran Coupe at the 2010 Beijing Auto Show and destined to go on sale in the second half of next year. Today, we have new spy shots of the same car, this time fitted with its optional M Sports Package. Looking virtually identical to the M Sports Package...
If the Rotary Supercars Predator GT and Transtar Dagger GT are a little too real and tangible for you, the former manufacturer has something much more vapory and shifty. Despite not having built an actual Predator GT yet, the company has already moved on to teasing its next great thing. It's working on doubling the rotors over the Predator GT...
I've been really fixated on Cadillacs as Guilty Pleasure cars these days, and I considered going with the Cimarron d'Oro--or even an $85 1:43 scale diecast bustle-back Seville toy--for today's GP honoree. However, thoughts of the way that GM managed to pass its bad-management virus to Toyota got me to thinking that perhaps NUMMI was the vector by...

A very mysterious Audi Q5 has been spotted sitting quietly in the Alps, and while at first glance nothing looks out of the ordinary, peer a little closer and you’ll quickly realize there’s something very odd about it. First and foremost is the imposing quad tailpipe arrangement at the rear, hinting that this is a new performance...
Hyundai has just announced that its funky new hatchback can be yours for the price of $17,300, plus a $760 destination charge. That price includes the 1.6-liter GDI inline four-cylinder and a six-speed manual transmission. If rowing your own gears isn't your style, you can add another $1,250 for Hyundai's new EcoShift dual clutch transmission. Not...
A few years ago Lexus announced that it would be the first mainstream automaker to launch a production model fitted with LED headlights, in this case, the LS 600h. Around the same time, Audi announced that it would be launching LED headlights on its R8 and that its lights would include LED elements for both the low and high beams, while the Lexus...
