Concepts

I do love the interwebs, especially when they serve up tasty rumors like this one. Supposedly Subaru is meditating on the notion of bringing the SVX back to the streets. You remember the SVX, right? The car that barely sold, lacked the performance backbone to tackle the competition and had some of the strangest windows [...]

Holy hell. We remember hearing a few whispers about the Toyobaru collaboration getting fast tracked, but no one expected to see something this quick. Toyota just announced an all-new concept will take a bow at this year’s Tokyo Motor Show and will be powered by a 2.0-liter boxer four. Sounds like Pleiades DNA to me. [...]

Huh. Didn’t see this one coming. There’s a pesky little rumor swirling around the Web saying Jaguar’s hard at work on a new creation. A creation with three doors and an oil-burner under the hood. Now, we tend to put about as much faith in web-born rumors as we do promises of more horsepower from [...]

It’s no secret I’m more of a fan of diesels than EVs when it comes to the green fight. Anyone’s who’s had some time behind the wheel of a newer oil-burner knows these things are heads and shoulders above the driving death featured in hybrids everywhere. Then Honda goes and shows off this little sucker [...]

It’s been a good week for long-roof fans so far. Things kicked off with GM-honcho Fritz Henderson hinting we may eventually see a V version of the CTS Sport Wagon headed our way by the end of next year. We all know that means the supercharged LSA from the current CTS V, complete with its [...]

You know, let’s just call this rumor Tuesday. There just so many tasty bits to go through right now, why not indulge in them all. Evidently word popped up while I was getting hitched that Audi’s considering reviving it’s legendary Ur-Quattro. I know, right? The Fiends over at Autoblog have unearthed an article in a [...]

While Honda seems bound and determined to drill the cool out of the CR-Z by only offering it with a CVT, word has popped up Toyota may have something tasty for the Tokyo Motor Show. No we’re not talking about the production Lexus LF-A or the Subaru-partnered 086A. This is something all new – the [...]

There’s a trickle of rumors buzzing around the Web right now saying Honda will debut a new hybrid sports car based on the sexy CR-Z at the Tokyo Motor Show. The rumors include a few likely details, including the fact that the car will be powered either by a 1.5 or 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine and [...]

Blame it on fuel economy standards. As much as we’d love to say this some sort of twisted, way late April Fool’s gag, it’s not. Aston Martin has announced the company is partnering with Toyota to produce a minicar. And which fuel sipper will Yota offer up for the uber-lux treatment? None other than the [...]

Infiniti has decided to bring it’s hybrid Essence concept to this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed. As a refresher, the car boasts a turbo 3.7-liter V6 good and an electric drivetrain good for a combined 600 horsepower. We couldn’t think of a better way to introduce Nissan’s lux-brand to the UK than flogging the concept [...]
