It’s safe to assume that a large majority of 2012 Lexus LFA buyers will have no idea how to extract the most from their highly refined and engineered supercar. With a mighty V-10 delivering 552 horsepower at a lofty 8,700 rpm, mostly carbon fiber construction and a quick-shifting sequential manual gearbox, the LFA is almost the exact...
France’s PSA Peugeot Citroen group plans to take on the hybrid market in coming years with new diesel-electric hybrid technology, the first of which will be appearing in the new Peugeot 3008 HYbrid4 due in the spring of 2011 in Europe. The technology, dubbed HYbrid4, has already been previewed in a string of concept cars but the 3008 HYbrid4...
Two years ago the Lee Iacocca special-edition of the 45th Anniversary Mustang hit the streets, and the first example raised $125,000 for charity. Now Iacocca's selling his personal ride for another benefit. The winning bidder will not only get the father of the Mustang's personal chariot, but lunch with the man as well. Benefits from the auction...
Saab is planning a busy week in Geneva this March, with up to four new cars, including one all-new concept, due to cross the stage. The new 9-3, 9-3 Cabriolet, a Saab Concept Car, and possibly one more--judging by the image on the preview site--are the planned unveilings. The concept car looks rather like a fastback, not unlike the 900 Turbo, seen...
A report out of a Hyundai dealer meet-up earlier this week pegged the sale of the Elantra Coupe for this spring, but we can now report the Coupe will be on sale this fall. Dealers call it "gorgeous." That's probably not all self-interest talking, either, as the new Elantra is a looker for its compact-sedan class. Aggressively styled, with a...
Two-doors are in vogue again, it seems, with every almost every major luxury manufacturer showing off a new coupe in recent months. Mercedes-Benz joins the rolls today with the 2012 C-Class Coupe ahead of its Geneva Motor Show debut. Replacing the last-gen CLC Coupe, the new C-Class Coupe rides on the same core underpinnings as the C-Class sedan...
It's hard to believe that it's been more than a year since the MINI Coupe and Roadster concepts were unveiled in Frankfurt. Production is already gearing up, however, and today we have some of the first spy shots of the car in testing. Previous reports had pinned a fast-track to production on the smaller Coupe and Roadster variants, but the launch...
A new "parallel full hybrid model" will be on display at Porsche's Geneva Motor Show stand, and we're expecting it to be the Panamera S Hybrid. The V-6 models arrived last year, as did the new Cayenne S Hybrid, so a new production hybrid makes most sense in the humpbacked four-door. Power for the Panamera hybrid will likely come from a similar...
