If you want to go fast in a Range Rover Evoque today, your options are fairly limited. The most powerful engine available is a turbocharged, 2.0-liter four, making just 237 horsepower. That’s not a lot of thrust for a crossover weighing in at 3,680 pounds. Britain's Autocar reports that a high-performance version of the Range Rover Evoque is...
The spies have been busy: the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette (C7) has been spied, as has the 2013 Cadillac ATS--on video--and the 2013 Porsche Panamera. In other news, Audi is recalling the A3 TDI for a fire risk, Porsche's Rennsport Reunion is firing up, and the 2013 Lexus GS 350 F Sport was unveiled in South Africa. 2013 Porsche Panamera spy shots...
Pricing for the 2012 Nissan 370Z range, which includes the Coupe, Roadster, and high-performance Nismo edition, remains unchanged over the previous year’s levels. This means that the base 2012 Nissan 370Z Coupe equipped with a manual transmission lists from a very reasonable $31,450. The Roadster, in base trim, is equipped with a seven-speed...
We’ve previously brought you spy shots of a prototype for the new 2013 Cadillac ATS, as well as an official teaser, but here is our own exclusive spy video of the upcoming rear-wheel drive small sedan testing on the Nurburgring race track in Germany and on some of its surrounding roads. Small cars and Cadillac haven't, historically, gone...
With all the hoopla surrounding Lexus’ efforts to prevent resellers flogging its LFA supercar, with limited availability, selective customer profiling, and finicky lease contracts all employed by the Japanese automaker to ensure its cars would only be going to those who truly wanted to enjoy the high level of engineering and sophistication...
When it made its debut at the Shanghai Auto Show in 2009, many were critical of the Porsche Panamera's looks. It continues to have its detractors, but most have come to realize just how impressive the Panamera is in terms of performance, luxury, and utility. Soon, Porsche's only sedan will be getting a mid-cycle update, and these are the latest...
Think BMWs are plush and elegant now? Munich hasn't even scratched the surface. BMW provided a glimpse behind its research lab walls this week in detailing some of the things it's working on under the ConnectedDrive umbrella. It's clear Bimmer mad scientists plan to make their cars so futuristic and intuitive even Michael Knight (a.k.a. The Hoff)...
The latest installment of the Need For Speed franchise, Need For Speed: The Run, is now just a few weeks away, and in the lead up to its arrival--November 15, to be exact--we now have a new trailer. The latest clip sees the Pagani Huayra and McLaren MP4-12C duke it out, with a Ford Taurus Police Interceptor always following close behind. Need For...
Following his win in Singapore just two weeks ago, Red Bull Racing star Sebastian Vettel is almost certain to claim the 2011 Formula 1 World Championship title this weekend at the Japanese Grand Prix. Vettel needs just one point to claim the title and considering his past performance that should come easy, especially when you recall that the...
In August we were sad to report that Mazda was ending production of its RX-8 sports car and with no successor in sight will effectively end production of the world’s only volume Wankel rotary powered car. However, Mazda was never going to let its unique sports car drive off into the sunset without a bang, today announcing the special edition...
The 2012 Honda Civic Si introduces very few exterior styling changes, but makes some big updates to the powertrain. That's just about the opposite of what we expected, and it turns out that it may be the opposite of what the typical enthusiast wants, too. Our overall rating of 7 reflects those changes, but also shows there's still a lot to like...
INDYCAR has decided on the best memorial it can give Chris Griffis, team manager for Sam Schmidt Motorsports' Firestone Indy Lights championship teams. Mazda Road to Indy teams can gain a head start to 2012 competition through a two-day USF2000 National Championship, Star Mazda Championship and Firestone Indy Lights test on the Indianapolis Motor...
Aldo Costa was the assistant to Ferrari’s chief Formula 1 designer, Rory Byrne, from 1998 to 2004. When Byrne announced his retirement in 2004, it was Costa who was named by Ferrari as Byrne’s successor. As such, Costa worked closely with driver Michael Schumacher and technical director Ross Brawn. Costa, Byrne, Schumacher and Brawn...
Yesterday we learned about the 2012 Camaro ZL1's lap time of 7:41.27 through GM president Mark Reuss. Today, Chevy has released the official video. It's chock full of exactly what you'd expect: engine roar, tire scream, and lots of on-the-limit driving, including a few instances of opposite lock. Check it out and see if you think the ZL1 will be...
The 2013 Lexus GS is, aside from the LFA, the most interesting car in the lineup despite only being a couple of months old and not even on sale yet. The newly unveiled F Sport package just makes it more so. Unfortunately Lexus hasn't graced us with the specifics of the new GS's F Sport package, but from the photos we can see that, as usual, the F...
