Large SUV Sales Surge Faster Than Small Cars
Posted on 30. Jul, 2010 by admin.
Plug-in electric hybrids and electric cars have taken up much of the digital airwaves over the past few weeks (or years, depending on your perspective), but it may surprise you to find out that “passé” full-size SUVs are increasing in popularity once again. So far this year, full-size SUV sales have increased 19%, beating overall industry growth of 17%. The full-size SUV category is composed of large body-on-frame SUVs, like the GMC Yukon, and large crossovers, such as the Lincoln MKT and Chevrolet Traverse. If the surge in SUV sales catches you off guard, the same can be said for automakers.

With the 2006-2010 Infiniti M, a highly competent luxury performance sedan was hidden beneath utterly forgettable sheetmetal. Before my father bought his 2008 Cadillac CTS I suggested that he also check out the M. One glance at the car’s exterior was all he needed to summarily reject it

Posted on 11. May, 2010 by admin.
Volvo’s completely redesigned S60 goes on sale later this year, but the company is already touting its starting price of $37,700, before an $850 destination charge. That’s competitive for the segment, which offers some tough competition in the Infiniti G37 sedan and the Audi A4 when you’re talking value. Our editors were mixed on the S60 after seeing it at the New York International Auto Show last month , but their opinions may change once they drive it

Recalls have always been part of the automotive business, but lately they seem to be centered largely around faulty electronic and electrical systems--a side effect, perhaps, of the increased computerization of cars in general. Today's recall is for 134,215 2005-2006 Infiniti G35 sedans and 2005-2007 G35 Coupes that use a faulty connector that may..
