The Impreza Concept won lots of praise when the sheets came off the concept at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show, and it looks like Subaru might be working overtime to bring it to market with a production version possibly coming to the New York Auto Show. The 2012 Impreza is expected to launch this year, with August targeted as the on-sale date, so...
Last week we brought you the first episode in BMW's four-part documentary series entitled "Wherever You Want To Go." Today, we have part two, "The Future Isn't What It Used To Be." In part two, we hear people that lived through the Tomorrowland, Jetsons vision of the future in the 1960s that are disappointed with where we've actually managed to...
Mazda's MX-5 Miata recently got some (rare) bad press from EVO's Chris Harris, but that's not nearly enough to put a crimp in the 900,000-unit model run's style. To celebrate the milestone delivery reached earlier this month, a new Special Edition of the car is on show in Chicago this week. Only 750 of the 2011 MX-5 Miata Special Edition cars will...
Ford Australia has taken the wraps off the second-generation of its Territory SUV, which is set to go on sale in the land down under later this year. Based on the rear-wheel drive Falcon sedan platform, the Territory comes as standard as a rear-driver but has all-wheel drive as an option. Featuring the latest take on Ford’s kinetic design...
We first saw GM’s new-generation of ‘eAssist’ mild-hybrid technology in the 2012 Buick LaCrosse, where it is equipped as a standard feature on the base four-cylinder LaCrosse. Today GM is announcing that the 2012 Buick Regal will also come with eAssist, though it will be offered as an option. eAssist essentially pairs a small...
The 2011 Chicago Auto Show is just a day away now and in its lead up we have news that a facelifted version of the award-winning Hyundai Genesis sedan will be unveiled in The Windy City. The information was revealed by the automaker’s U.S. chief, John Krafcik, who said the facelifted 2012 Hyundai Genesis will debut in Chicago and come...
When the facelifted 2012 Nissan GT-R range rolled out late last year, not only were we treated with some new styling and a more powerful engine, but the introduction of two completely new models as well. These new models include the racing circuit dedicated "Club Track" edition and an ultra-exclusive "EGOIST" version designed to be fully tailored...
While it isn’t the high-performance M6 we’re all waiting for, the latest M Sports Package for the upcoming 2012 BMW 6-Series Coupe does give the dynamic luxury two-door an even sportier look thanks to some distinct M styling cues. BMW’s line of M Sports Package upgrades typically include exterior modifications to give a sharper...
We’re sure there’s nothing quite like the thrill of winning the Super Bowl but for one player, in this case the MVP of yesterday’s game, Aaron Rodgers, GM has sweetened his experience just a little. Rodgers, of the winning Green Bay Packers, was presented with a brand new 2011 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible earlier today after...
Fast Five--a.k.a. Fast and the Furious Five--wasn't the only big Hollywood title getting a showing as an ad during yesterday’s Super Bowl XLV. The third installment of the Transformers franchise, Transformers 3 - Dark Of The Moon was also previewed as a short snippet, revealing some tantalizing new details. We get our first look at new...
A report on an enthusiast site and numbers on the official EPA fuel economy site point toward a new Camaro model optimized to achieve 30 mpg highway. The current base V-6, automatic-equipped 2011 Camaro is rated at 29 mpg, so the gain isn't huge--just 1 mpg city and highway--but it's the round 30 that counts in the publicity battle against Ford's...
The 2012 Porsche 911, which bears the internal designation 991, isn't due to make its first public showing until this fall's Frankfurt Auto Show or thereabouts, but a recent report from a fan forum, citing a trackside discussion at Daytona with a "very very higher up" in Porsche's motorsports ranks, claims to have several key details on the GT3...
You know that gorgeous winged woman pinned to the hood of every Rolls-Royce? She's turning 100 this year, and her company threw her a 100-car birthday bash in London this weekend. The first Spirit of Ecstasy, as the ornament is known, was introduced in 1911, but as grand a mascot as it is, the celebration was as much about the cars beneath it. The...
Calling the Mazda Miata MX-5 "a machine which drives with all the precision of a boneless limb" is a harsh, and, among owners, enthusiasts, and the automotive press, unpopular statement. But EVO's Chris Harris actually makes a few fair points. His overall sum-up, that the MX-5 is equivalent to excrement, is a bit over the top, but in stock form...
The Chevrolet Impala may bear little resemblance to its classic namesake, but it continues on in W-body form for 2012. Despite the familiar duds, the 2012 Impala will get a new heart: GM's 3.6-liter V-6 engine. According to GM Inside News, the 3.6-liter LFX will be the only engine option offered in the car, replacing the 3.5-liter and 3.9-liter...
