2012 Hyundai Genesis sedan
A few mid cycle changes.None of them needed, really. The Genesis is quite a conservative design, and the small changes seem mostly clumsy. The big V8 is supposed to get better fuel economy. As for the coupe, both engines are supposed to get more power. Especially the 2.0 Liter Turbo which could match today’s V6’s… Continue reading 2012 Hyundai Genesis sedan

2011 Chrysler 200 Convertible prices.
The base model will start at $27 200.Pretty much similar to what they were charging for the base Sebring convertible. But… It comes with a 2.4 Liter 4 cylinder engine. And the Chrysler engine is not the smoothest around.For about $300 more, you get over 300hp with a V6 in the Mustang. To get the… Continue reading 2011 Chrysler 200 Convertible prices.

2012 Smart ForFour
Seems like Smart is ready to try the four door idea again. But this time, it looks more like a Smart.Not sure if this is based on the next Mercedes A Class or a platform from partner Renault/Nissan. It seems to have some kind of retro futuristic look to it. Smart is in desperate need… Continue reading 2012 Smart ForFour

Toyota will show another version of last year’s FT-86 in a few days.It is said to be very close to the production model we might see later this year. This is one Toyota many are waiting for. With a Subaru version coming as well. Let’s hope the final design stays true to the concept, as… Continue reading Toyota FT-6=86 part 2

They are already getting ready to show in a few days a Lancia version of the new Chrysler 200 Sedan and convertible.Both brands need new models,… Continue reading Lancia Ypsilon

2012 Vauxhall/Opel Astra
The new sporty 3 door version of the current Astra looks great.The previous generation was sold here as a Saturn. But now that Buick is getting the sedan version of he Astra, I wonder if they’ll get this coupe as well.The US Buick Verano is supposed to be getting the 2.0 Liter Turbo as an… Continue reading 2012 Vauxhall/Opel Astra

2012 VW Golf Cabriolet
Just an illustration.And there will be more before the real thing comes out. Should be priced a bit bellow the 2012 Beetle Convertible. Itself starting at a little bit lower than the 2011 model.

New Kia Picanto Interior.
A better picture, where we now see most of it. Not bad at all if you consider what is offered by the competition for the price.Which will be cheaper than the $12 000 Rio.

2012 Fiat Freemont
Looking really familiar.This is basically a rebadged Dodge Journey for the European market. It will use more European type engines as well. Including Fiat’s own 2.0 Liter Diesel.Although our big 3.6 Liter V6 will be offered later.

All new Kia Picanto interior photos
It doesn’t look bad. Even though we don’t see much , yet. The Picanto is a smaller and cheaper car then the Rio. Which starts in the US at about $12 000.So if sold here, the Picanto would be starting at under $10 000 or so. But so far, it doesn’t look like we’ll see… Continue reading All new Kia Picanto interior photos

2012/13 Infiniti compact models
Infiniti has already announced a 2013 new EV model based on the Leaf.The bottom pic is an official sketch of it. But they recently also mentioned the possibility of competing in the luxury compact segment against cars like the Audi A1, BM1 series and the new Lexus CT200h.That means a hatchback. I think it is… Continue reading 2012/13 Infiniti compact models

2012 Saab 9-5 Sportwagon
Back from the dead with the 1st official picture. I like the sedan, but I think the wagon is even better looking, and even more of a Saab. But, so far, the sedan hasn’t been getting stellar reviews. Most people are saying it is fine, but not worth $50 000. And this wagon would be… Continue reading 2012 Saab 9-5 Sportwagon

Mitsubishi Concept Global Small.
What a name, really… First they teased us with a bad illustration, (bottom pic) then this rather boring concept.It doesn’t look like the “sure to be toned down” production version will be that exiting. And I hear Mitsubishi has very high hope for this model.By the time it comes out, the market will be full… Continue reading Mitsubishi Concept Global Small.
