BMW will soon offer a more practical variant of the 2 Series. A four-door version of the small car will make its debut at the 2019 Los Angeles Auto Show in November, the automaker confirmed today. Although the current 2 Series coupe and convertible are rear-drive based, the BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe will sit

Do you ever wonder where this is all going to end? More power, bigger wings, better aero, fatter tires. Remember when the ’90s Porsche 911 Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 hit 400 horsepower? We thought we were all going to die. Yet now we’re close to doubling that. What hath the demon seed of technology
Having the very basic CR-V comes with some benefits and some disadvantages. The biggest benefit is the value for your money along with the interior space, cubbies, and fold-flat seats. But depending on your needs, the disadvantages can be somewhat notorious. One of the biggest letdowns is not having tinted windows. This summer was a
And finally, Volvo offers the XC40, which makes its unique, angular exterior styling and shared Ikea-chic interior from the XC90 and XC60 affordable to younger buyers—without watering down the safety gear or losing the familiar mini-Tesla touch-tablet Sensus infotainment system. To get the pricing and configuration as close as possible, we gathered up a top-trim
Orbis cofounder Marcus Hays has brought that same white SAE-show CTR to the Hyundai Motor Group California Proving Ground for us to sample on the eve of our 2019 Car of the Year evaluation days. This is also a proof-of-concept prototype, and as such it’s undergone no vehicle integration work, so the electric axle is
It’s 8 a.m. in the California high desert, and already the sun has our asphalt stage brightly lit. To our left is “Big Willow” with its white-knuckle turns and village of backstage garages and paddocks needed for Willow Springs International Raceway’s blockbuster, high-speed productions. This, though, is “Streets,” its more intimate second stage. A more
The ES is the first Lexus vehicle with Apple CarPlay, and it’s standard on the ES 300h along with Siri Eyes Free voice control. Android Auto is still not offered, but owners of Amazon Alexa-enabled Android phones can take advantage of the service’s car-to-home and home-to-car verbal commands (iPhone compatibility is scheduled for late 2018).
Our Caddy tester had optional 20-inch wheels instead of the standard 18-inchers. It’s also heavier as tested than the Volvo and Mercedes (but lighter than the Infiniti and BMW). Perhaps, as associate online editor Stefan Ogbac said, “the engine is punchy, but there’s a bit of lag before you get boost.” The XT4 brakes confidently
Yeah, yeah, the Mercedes-AMG E 63 S wagon is a hoot, a laugh-out-loud combination of supercar and load lugger. But after you’ve impressed your buddies with a couple of thundering full-throttle acceleration runs and strafed an unsuspecting Porsche 911 or two late at night on the freeway, then what? Mostly, all that Sturm und Drang
There is a growing fondness for our long-term Velar—which technically isn’t Land Rover’s flagship, but which does a strong impression of one. The 380-hp 332-lb-ft 3.0-liter supercharged V-6 mated to a sure-shifting eight-speed automatic makes short work of a couple shortcuts I make on my coastal commute, where I dogleg around some notorious PCH snarls.
After multiple tests, we’ve concluded that the Honda Accord is the best car in its class. So needless to say we had high expectations for the hybrid version. In many ways, it adds to the Accord’s appeal as a practical sedan, offering a claimed 47 mpg combined (we’ll get to that later) and identical cargo
This is a tricky driving impression to write. That’s because considerable engineering might has been expended to make the feature we’re here to focus on as unnoticeable as possible. That feature is a 48-volt mild-hybrid system sold by the name eTorque. It’s a pretty unsexy fuel saver that may prove to be a tough sell
In just its third year on the market, Acura is giving its NSX mid-engine hybrid all-wheel-drive supercar a relatively thorough refresh. Along with gently enhancing the aesthetics, the options list has come in for some rationalization, and the chassis team has made a dynamic tweak or two. We fervently hope the handling tweaks will address
We’ve waited a long time to see the final production version of the BMW Z4, which made its debut as a concept at last year’s Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. Now the wait is over, as the Z4 has reemerged at the same event a year later in First Edition guise. View 46 Photos Introducing the
In place of the usual Brembo brakes are AP Racing Radi-CAL six-piston front and four-piston rear calipers biting down on two-piece vented and slotted rotors measuring 14.6 inches in front and 13.4 inches in the rear. Special calipers for endurance racing permit thicker (1.1-inch versus 0.7-inch), longer-lasting brake pads. Exterior modifications include a hood vent,
Amid a complete redesign for the 2017 model year, the Porsche Panamera lost its signature bulbous rear end to more closely resemble the sporty sedan it has always tried to embody. A year later, the Panamera gains that rump back on the new Sport Turismo wagon variant. Despite the extra bulk, the model is just
We fell in “enthusiast” love with the Civic Type R in the first moments we drove it in Montreal last year. During its First Test, features editor Christian Seabaugh, who is never at a loss for words, said, “Thinking of clever ways to describe cars pays my bills, so rarely does a car leave me
Located above the 4.2-inch instrument cluster display, the shift lights were a helpful feature when driving on the ‘Ring. They light up and change color from white to yellow to red, indicating to the driver when it’s time to shift. The six-speed shifter has short throws and the clutch pedal feels firm, giving good feedback
Although crossovers are eating away at the sales of traditional cars, there remain plenty of options for those who aren’t sure they want an SUV. The 2019 Toyota Corolla hatchback goes on sale before the end of the summer and will sit alongside the C-HR in dealerships nationwide. Does opting for the lower, more conventional
Our long-term 2017 Hyundai Tucson has been with us for a year, and its departure is now imminent. During its time with us, the turbocharged crossover served mainly as a commuter car, but it’s also done multiple trips out of the City of Angels, to beautiful Palm Springs, Northern California, and Texas. Our bright orange
Being crowned Motor Trend’s 2018 SUV of the Year means that the fifth-generation Honda CR-V will be spending a year in our fleet. And we don’t mean the 2017 CR-V Touring AWD that visual assets manager Brian Vance has been chaperoning for the past 11 months. “My” CR-V is different. Since we are already familiar

Hellcat is becoming a full litter for Dodge. The Dodge brand, which FCA is winnowing down to a sports car brand, is building on the success of the Challenger SRT Hellcat and subsequent Demon by expanding the family. After the Challenger began as a 2008 model. Dodge added the Hellcat for 2015, and the Demon
Lest we forget about large sedans in our lust for crossovers, the updated 2019 Dodge Charger reminds us the segment is still kicking. Although power hasn’t changed, the sedan receives performance upgrades and cosmetic enhancements to keep it fresh. As we already knew, higher-performing versions of the 2019 Charger receive a new grille. This grille,

When I first arrived in Northern Chile to drive the new 2019 Audi Q8, it was hard for me to draw any similarities between the town of San Pedro de Atacama and the SUV. Located in the heart of the Atacama Desert—one of the driest places on Earth—San Pedro de Atacama sits 7,900 feet above
