The first gen EcoSport had the Escape four wheel drive system and its independent rear suspension. But the lock function was still available until 2012, when the second generation was released and got a simpler AWD system. 

Used to be cool when a car could keep the record for a while. Now every month has a new record lap, who cares

Don’t worry, in two years the original Civic Type-R will be legal to import to the US. And every single one of them will be imported, leaving the Japanese angry because the few remaining there will become crazy expensive.

You can’t remind of the planes and ships pollution. People don’t want to lose the cheap air travel and cheap goods from overseas 

Now playing

It is a parent company from Jones’ Big Ass Truck Rental & Storage?

The idea of the DS brand started good just like Infiniti, but today the cars got a bit bland to match with the Chinese taste. The DS cars could be a lot more wacky if the French had the permission to go full Citroen

Cadillac lineup is all over the place, there’s FWD crossovers, some sport sedans (one with a big four cylinder from a Silverado), the modern flagship sedan with a all new engine is already dead and now this electric crossover with a new naming convention (the CT and XT started in the other day, wtf?). What is GM

Low center of gravity alone don’t make the car better on corners, the high mass still is a issue and lighter sedans perform better than Teslas. This “low center of gravity” argument used by Tesla and it’s fans are as true as the Nissan engineer justification for the GT-R high weight

It can be a better sports car than a Porsche 911"

Jeez, looks like I have to remind in every article about the new truck that it is being made to compete with the Fiat Toro? And the Toro is basically a Jeep Compass truck, so the bed is really tiny. Can’t even carry a mountain bike 

Actually it is a F-1000, that’s 850 Fs bigger

Five different trim levels of the first gen Honda Fit.

People in Bolivia may disagree with this “saving the world” thing 

This must be the blandest photoshoot I ever saw. Not because it is a minivan, but because the car is silver with dull-grey interior and the scenery is meh. The previous model at least was photographed with red paint, that helped to create some cool light effects with the body design.

Car dealers quiet pretending it isn’t their fault 

Everything looks great despiste the lack of Public Enemy, but here in Brazil the best part of the soundtrack is Charlie Brown Jr. This band is the peak of skater music here and ended tragically after the vocalist died and few years later the bassist also died. Bob Burnquist told he was trying to make a homage to the

This, but complicated by Germans

Mitsubishi could be selling the new Pajero Sport in the US to take some of that sweet 4Runner sales. It is also a body-on-frame SUV with good off-road capability and room for improvements. It is offered with a 3.5 V6 or a modern 2.4 turbodiesel engine with around 190 hp.

Update, 6:07 p.m.: Tesla said Austin, Texas, was its choice.”

Your comment remind me of the movie Twister. The tornado hunters had trucks, vans, SUV and... a LTD Country Squire.
