  1. The 2019 Jeep Cherokee addresses its controversial design head on with an updated fascia and rear end that bring it more in line with its siblings, both big and small. Along with a new turbocharged engine, Jeep’s middle child should be better to drive and less polarizing to look at. Jeep is retaining the current Cherokee’s two engines...View the full article
  2. The 2019 Kia Forte channels its sporty Stinger big brother to bring its good looks to the masses. The redesigned compact sedan's new proportions see it look more hunkered down—and maybe that's about where the similarities end. The new Forte broke cover Monday at the 2018 Detroit auto show. Where the Stinger is a rear-drive sports car...View the full article
  3. This year, the Motor City was all about pickups. Each of the three domestic automakers took the wraps off of a new truck, promising more capability, more comfort, and lower fuel consumption. If we didn't know better, we'd think that Ford, Chevy, and Ram were sharing the same playbook. The differences are in the details, though: Ram's new pickup is...View the full article
  4. It's hard to believe that Ford, the truck leader for four decades, hasn't had a mid-size pickup since 2011. Well, now the Ranger rides again. The Ranger never actually went away. Our Ranger is actually based on a global truck that's been around since 2009, but Ford has beefed it up for our North American tastes. Under the hood is one powertrain...View the full article
  5. The redesigned 2019 Hyundai Veloster unveiled Monday at the 2018 North American International Auto Show in Detroit blends familial features from the Sonata sedan and Elantra GT wagon with its own stylish, odd-ball form. The result is predictable in the fascia—a prominent, heavily styled grille with a pair of aggressively canted headlights...View the full article
  6. The 2019 Hyundai Veloster is the unexpected redesign of one of the odder hatchbacks on the market. Coming at a time when consumers are clamoring for more crossovers and SUVs, the lifestyle-focused Veloster continues on with its odd spare door and carryover powertrains, but more technology and refined style. Styling and Performance The 2019 Hyundai...View the full article
  7. Everything is turning up SUVs and turbos nowadays, and that's just fine with Acura. Honda's luxury brand has been successful with its compact RDX crossover, and judging by the RDX Prototype it unveiled Monday at the 2018 Detroit auto show, it plans to continue down that road. What's bound to be the 2019 Acura RDX is an American product designed...View the full article
  8. Toyota to debut Apple CarPlay integration with 2019 Avalon Toyota's flagship four-door sedan will also be its first model in North America to offer integration for Apple iPhones. It's been a long time coming. 2019 Ram 1500 revealed: Ram with a family plan for full-size pickup truck buyers Full-size pickups have becoming living rooms and aircraft...View the full article
  9. The 2018 North American Car, Utility and Truck Awards announced on Monday at the 2018 Detroit Auto show went to two luxury vehicles and one mainstream sedan.

  10. Toyota's flagship four-door sedan will also be its first model in North America to offer integration for Apple iPhones. It's been a long time coming. Until the Monday debut of the 2019 Toyota Avalon at the 2018 Detroit auto show, the Japanese automaker had resisted allowing smartphone operating systems access to its infotainment systems, citing...View the full article
  11. The 2019 Toyota Avalon blurs the line between mainstream and luxury. This full-size sedan is Toyota's flagship, and if not for its badges, it could be a Lexus. The 2019 Avalon might be lower-slung than its predecessor, but its high-tech interior and available luxury features make its spec sheet read more like a Lexus than a Toyota. Arriving in...View the full article
  12. The 2019 Ram 1500 isn't just a redesigned full-size pickup, it's also a rethink for the truckmaker. The new pickup truck from Ram represents a nearly complete overhaul from top to bottom, complete with more interior space, tech, and a mild-hybrid system that leads the charge for the Detroit Three. The 2019 Ram 1500 was unveiled at the 2018 North...View the full article
  13. Full-size pickups have becoming living rooms and aircraft carriers, simultaneously hauling people and a flotilla of toys, campers, gear, and cargo. The 2019 Ram 1500, unveiled Monday at the 2018 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, aims to do it all. The new Ram is lower, longer, wider, and more luxurious, equipped with an available...View the full article
  14. A typical car is redesigned every few years. The 2019 Mercedes-Benz G550 is not a typical car. Not by a long shot. Four decades after the civilian version first went on sale with agricultural users in mind, the G-Class has finally been redesigned initially as the G550 and with more variants to follow. Today, its buyers are far more likely to brave...View the full article
  15. The 2019 Volkswagen Jetta is everything we would expect from the German builder of people's cars. It's comfortable, roomy, and pleasant—but above all, this redesigned model is very conservative. For the 2019 Jetta, Volkswagen has switched its compact four-door over to the far more sophisticated architecture that underpins its Golf hatchback...View the full article
  16. With the Dieselgate dust starting to settle, the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta made its first appearance Sunday at the 2018 Detroit auto show. The latest iteration of Volkswagen's bestselling U.S. model features a design that’s only slightly more aggressive than that of its predecessor, with an angular front grille that supports Audi-esque...View the full article
  17. It went away in 2011 but now it's back. At the Detroit auto show, Ford revealed the 2019 Ranger pickup, following the industry back to the mid-size segment it seemingly abandoned almost a decade ago. The new Ranger is based on an international truck that has been available even before the old one went away, but it's been optimized for the North...View the full article
  18. The 2019 Ford Ranger marks Ford's return to the mid-size pickup segment for the first time since 2011. While the Ranger hasn't been available on these shores for the better part of a decade, the truck it is based on has been around internationally for quite some time, but this version is optimized for the North American market. Styling and...View the full article
  19. The first new Chevrolet Silverado in more than five years arrived Saturday evening in Detroit, a new face for the fast-growing family of pickup trucks. The 2019 Silverado touched down in the Motor City after its initial reveal a month earlier in the Lone Star State. The new Chevrolet Silverado reflects years of engineering to make the full-size...View the full article
  20. Leonia, New Jersey, is a small borough of with less than 10,000 residents. It’s located just on the east side of the Hudson river from New York, and it wants to wipe itself of the map. Literally. This isn’t some ill-conceived joke about New Jerseyan self-immolation (they can’t even pump their own gasoline), but rather one...View the full article
  21. 2019 Honda Insight hybrid to debut in Detroit, promises 50 mpg combined A "concept" for the 2019 Honda Insight hybrid sedan will appear at the Detroit auto show that opens next week, debuting a new "premium compact" model that will sit between the compact Civic and mid-size Accord sedans.

  23. It's a stark image of a future that Chevrolet says isn't far off. The automaker filed a Safety Petition with the Department of Transportation with the intent of testing cars without steering wheels, pedals, or any kind of manual controls as early as 2019. The photo and video depict a test vehicle based on the Chevrolet Bolt EV that looks like it...View the full article
  24. As the age of self-driving cars steadily approaches, the demand for high-definition maps will outpace even the need for search engines. That’s the line of thinking, anyway, from Baidu, China’s largest search company and the country’s chief rival to Google. The company’s chief operating officer, Qi Lu, spoke on the issue at...View the full article
  25. Chinese automaker looking to build cars in South Carolina Chinese automotive startup Lynk & Co is reportedly looking to build cars in the U.S. A top contender for an assembly plant location is Ridgeville, South Carolina, where the automaker’s parent company, Geely, conveniently owns another plant that is getting ready to produce Volvos...View the full article
