Subaru Warms Up New Viziv 2 Concept for Geneva; Is it Pondering a Production Version?

Posted: 20 Feb 2014 06:57 PM PST


We would have preferred it if Subaru placed their focus on the BRZ-esque Cross Sport Concept, but we guess the similar-bodied Viziv will have to do for now. After the original Viziv Concept from the 2013 Geneva Auto Show and the oh-so slightly updated 2013 Tokyo show Viziv Evolution (it gained a different grille and dark headlamps), the Japanese firm has announced the introduction of a third version of the series dubbed Viziv 2, which will make its world premiere at next month's Geneva show.

It’s Officially the Future: Winter Tires With Retractable Studs by Nokian [w/Video]

Posted: 20 Feb 2014 04:03 PM PST


Sheet ice on smooth roads is so dangerous that we don't even need to link a video in order to prove it, but we will anyway. It can turn any drive on a seemingly clear road into short-lived and fast-paced adventure that usually ends in the back of another car (or somebody's living room) unless you have a set of the new Nokian winter tires with retractable studs.

VW Reveals Sporty GTE Plug-In Hybrid; Completes GTI, GTD Range

Posted: 20 Feb 2014 03:35 PM PST


The plug-in hybrid Golf GTE completes Volkswagen's sporty hatchback range that also consists of the petrol GTI and diesel GTD.

It sits in between the two other models, in terms of power, making a combined total of 201 hp and 258 lb-ft or 350 Nm which pushes it past 62 mph (100 km/h) in 7.6 seconds and on to a top speed of 135 mph (or 216 km/h, which we assume must be somewhat electronically pegged back, since the less powerful diesel tops 142 mph/229 km/h).

2015 BMW M3 Sedan Priced from $62,000*, New M4 Coupe from $64,200*

Posted: 20 Feb 2014 01:39 PM PST


The pricing and options guides for the new 2015 BMW M3 sedan and its two-door sibling, the M4 Coupe, are out in the open. If four-doors is your thing, the M3 will cost you $62,000, while the sleeker looking coupe starts a bit higher at $64,200 (obviously because a car designated with the number 4 should be more expensive than a car that starts with 3).

I wish you the best of luck John in whatever you decide to do next.

No announcement was made at the time for Neff's successor, but yesterday, I saw that parent company AOL placed Sharon Silke ("pronounced silk like milk", as she says) Carty as the new Editor-in-Chief on the website's masthead.

A Gadget-Biased Review of the Base BMW 428i

Posted: 20 Feb 2014 07:48 AM PST


There have been many reviews of the now-top spec 435i, but very few, if none, of the smaller 428i, which makes up the bottom of the range for BMW's US customers.
