| Get to Know the New 2014 Cadillac CTS Through a Fresh Set of 90 Photos Posted: 19 Sep 2013 05:05 PM PDT  The soon-to-be launched 2014 CTS is the most interesting Cadillac sedan since…well, you might think we're going to say the first generation CTS of 2002, but we're not, as our vote for this place goes to last year's ATS compact executive saloon, and that says a lot about the well-being of the wreath-and-crest brand these days.

| First Video Test Drive of New Alfa Romeo 4C Posted: 19 Sep 2013 04:35 PM PDT  With a starting price of around £45,000 (€54,000 or US$71,600) in England, the new Alfa Romeo 4C isn't exactly affordable to the masses, but it's the cheapest, brand-new, mid-engine sports car from Italy, and that must count for something. It does for us at least, and we were intrigued to learn that the first test drive of the new 4C from someone other than anyone affiliated with the Fiat Group (i.e. Giancarlo Fisichella) has surfaced online. The winning publication is Holland's Autoweek, and yes, it's in Dutch, but there are English subtitles. Read more »   |
| Americans Want Bigger Fiat 500, Europeans Want it to Remain the Same Posted: 19 Sep 2013 04:05 PM PDT  Fiat is in a bit of a dilemma regarding the size of the next-generation Fiat 500, which is scheduled to arrive in 2015. Surprisingly and despite starting sluggish, the United States became the largest single market for the Fiat 500, with 43,772 sales, ahead of Italy's 42,919 units sold last year. Read more »    |
| Mercedes-Benz Shows Us the Evolution of the S-Class in New Video Posted: 19 Sep 2013 03:35 PM PDT  The S-Class is Mercedes' flagship model and has traditionally been the brand's (some would even say the industry's) most advanced model in terms of technology and comfort. Many technical innovations that are now taken for granted have been pioneered by the S-Class, including drivetrain technologies, interior features, and safety systems. Read more »    |

| Bugatti Reportedly Confirms Veyron Replacement, Says It Won't Challenge SS’s Top Speed Posted: 19 Sep 2013 02:18 PM PDT  After finding out that Bugatti was very seriously considering stopping work altogether on the Galibier sedan, we started wondering what the VW-owned brand had planned for the future.

| Unbelievable Accident with Careless Driver Running Over Girl who Walks Away! Posted: 19 Sep 2013 01:42 PM PDT  Warning: This video contains content that some viewers may find disturbing A vehicle running over any living being is something most people do not want to watch, and rightfully so. The only reason why we are posting this video of run-over incident is that the pedestrian, who appears to be either a teenage girl or a young woman, got up and walked away by herself. Call it sheer luck, divine intervention, or whatever else you want, and regardless if she sustained any non-life threatening injuries (hopefully she didn't), this girl should consider herself extremely fortunate for being alive after such a horrific incident.

| No Surprises Here: Peugeot Boss Says Hot 308 R with 266HP is Very Likely Posted: 19 Sep 2013 01:02 PM PDT  We recently posted a video review of the all-new Peugeot 308, where we said it gave us the impression that it's still not a complete match for the class leaders, and its biggest rival is (still) the Opel/Vauxhall Astra. However, there's one thing still missing from the formula: a hot hatch derivative. Read more »    |
| Spied: Twingo Mule Makes Room for Smart's Next ForTwo Posted: 19 Sep 2013 12:37 PM PDT  Even though we're approaching the time when we should be asking where will Smart lift the covers off the new generation of its ForTwo city car, we're still wondering how the styling lessons learned from the 2011 ForVision and 2012 ForStars concepts will be applied to the production model.

| The S-Walker Board is Half Skateboard, Half Segway [w/Video] Posted: 19 Sep 2013 12:14 PM PDT  We're sure you know the Eurofighter Typhoon, the jointly-developed European answer to the challenge of making a modern multirole fighter airplane. It's a very agile aircraft, thanks to the fact that it was engineered to be stable, and computers control the movement and angle of its canards and ailerons so as to keep it going straight, or turning on a dime.

| New Vauxhall Insignia Country Tourer Priced from £25,349 Posted: 19 Sep 2013 11:51 AM PDT  GM's crossover-inspired, but in reality, nothing more than a station wagon riding on a jacked up suspension, Insignia Country Tourer is now available for order from Vauxhall's UK dealers with prices starting from £25,349 (equal to $34,400 at current exchange rates) on-the-road, and first deliveries scheduled for January next year.

The biggest one from Germany's auto sector regards the 2020 EU-imposed environmental targets, which they view as tough and potentially harmful for innovation and economic growth. Read more »    |
| Ferrari LaFerraris Chased Around by PaparAudi R8 and F12Berlinetta Posted: 19 Sep 2013 11:10 AM PDT  While most Ferraris are a rare sight on the road (unless you call Monaco your home), seeing the latest and fiercest object of lust from Maranello, the yet to be released to the public, LaFerrari, is something worth filming and playing the paparazzo game – just as long as you don't do it from the driver's seat… Read more »    |
| We Get a More Detailed Look at Upcoming Zenos E10 Sports Car Posted: 19 Sep 2013 10:53 AM PDT  Whenever a new sports car maker pops up, we're always interested and intrigued, especially if their products are of the kind one can realistically think about buying in this lifetime, without resorting to petty crimes… At least that's what we hope will be the case with the new Zenos E10 sports car, a vehicle which in principle sounds very appealing, promising ultra-lightweight construction, typically nimble handling and over 300 horsepower per ton.

| Oh, the Terror! First World Problems at McDonald's Drive Thru Posted: 19 Sep 2013 02:58 PM PDT  If you ever wondered how and why people come up with generalizations to stereotype others, from customers who shop a certain brand name all the way to citizens of an entire country or even continent, perhaps this amusing, in a McTwisted sort-of-way, video will provide some answers, but not all.

| Zender's White-Hot Abarth 500 Corsa Stradale Concept Posted: 19 Sep 2013 09:48 AM PDT  Thanks to Ferrari and other sports car makers from Italy, most automotive enthusiasts know what to expect when the words "Corsa" and "Stradale" are used to name a vehicle(for the record, "Corsa" is Italian for "Race" and "Stradale" for road), not that Zender's Abarth 500 Corsa Stradale needs to explain what it was made for… Read more »    |
| Lister Cars Says it's Back in Business Posted: 19 Sep 2013 09:27 AM PDT  Lister is a familiar name on the British sports car scene, even though they have not made a road car bearing the three oriental swords badge (that's what it looks like to me) in 25 years. They were famous for making the 'Knobbly' Jaguar, which was an updated design based on the classic D-Type, with various modernized solutions brought to it over the years. You may also have heard about Lister Storm supercars/racing cars too, which at the time of its launch, came with the biggest V12 engine ever fitted to a production car (a seven-liter unit sourced from Jaguar).

| Revisiting and Driving the Original 1960's Corvette Stingray Posted: 19 Sep 2013 09:09 AM PDT  With very few notable exceptions, it's the original version of famous and successful products that set the tone and offer the inspiration for their successors (and sometimes, rivals as well). This applies to most objects, from modern electronic devices like Apple's iPhone, to cars like the first generation BMW M3 E30. Read more »    |

| Ford Transit Connect Scoops International Van of the Year 2014 Trophy Posted: 19 Sep 2013 08:27 AM PDT  Ford's new range of commercial vehicles encompasses some of the most modern (and newest) light-duty models on the market, which not only look quite modern, but also deliver in the key areas that matter to customers. Last year, they even won the International Van of the Year trophy, thanks to the Transit Custom model that received an impressive 117 points out of the total 133 that were available, and spread equally among the judges that made up the panel.
