2010 Subaru Legacy Review by Motor Trend

Subarus have always been a bit peculiar. From their exclusive use of horizontally opposed "boxer" engines and standard all-wheel drive to their trail-friendly wagons and turbo compacts with gigantic hood scoops and rear wings, the vehicles from Fuji Heavy Industries roll to the beat of a different drummer. As the automaker puts it, those characteristics are what make a Subaru a Subaru.

They're also what has helped make the small Japanese brand successful, especially during these current hard times. For 2009, Subaru's year-to-year sales, like all automakers,' are down, but only a scant 1.8 percent. Compare that to losses at Toyota (40.7 percent) and Honda (41.5 percent), and you can see why Subaru is feeling like the healthiest candy bar at the snack shop. With the launch of its all-new fifth-generation Legacy, Subaru is feeling even sweeter, as it finally has a flagship sedan that offers competitive performance, passenger volume, and fuel economy.

New Nissan Cube - U.S.-Spec Review

The Nissan Cube may be new to the U.S. market, but the miniature box shaped people mover has been on sale in Japan for over a decade.

Chrysler 200C EV Concept Car may replace Chrysler Sebring, Dodge Avenger

It seems like it has been forever since Chrysler has been planning a replacement for the slow-selling Chrysler Sebring and Dodge Avenger. According to Automotive News, Chrysler’s new management is now wrestling with that very decision.

2010 Mercedes E250 CDI Review and Test Drive

"I won't parrot the company line about the E-class being the heart and soul of the brand, except that it is. The E-class is a "business saloon," the standard-issue Mercedes -- stout, reliable, comfortable and enduring. This is the stainless-steel Rolex of cars, steadily elegant and appropriate for any occasion, and you have to admire the alacrity with which the E-class can go from being a tan airport taxi drone in Berlin to being a valet-park star in Beverly Hills."

That, along with, "to save you the suspense, I'll tell you now: The new E-class is a fantastic car but for one huge, agonizing, inexcusable error that baffles me like a Rubik's Cube the size of the Seagrams Building. More on that in a moment. For now, consider a short list of some of the more fun safety systems available on the E-class as standard or options...." sum up Pulitzer Prize-winning Automotive journalist, Dan Neil's, review of the new Mercedez-Benz E250 Diesel sedan.

2009 Lexus LF-A Supercar Ready for the 2009 Nurburgring 24 Hour Race

It was only last week that we learnt that the ‘always in development never on sale’ Lexus LF-A was heading back to the ‘Ring to compete in the Nurburgring 24-hour endurance race in May.

The latest news is that incoming Toyota President, Akio Toyoda (grandson of the company’s founder) will be enjoying some wheel time during the event. Toyoda is 52 years old, and will team up with three other drivers to punt the Lexus supercar around the ‘Ring.

In addition to genuinely racing the LF-A, Toyota will be using the enduro event to log more data on the LF-A (under race conditions), in the lead up to what is expected (hoped) to be an October launch, at the Tokyo Motor Show.
