Tesla Model S Beta
Considering
this is a prototype, we're suitably impressed with the fit and
finish both inside and out. We're sure that Tesla was sweating
the details in the run-up to this past weekend's festivities,
and the tight gaps in the body panels and general exterior polish
of the betas was proof the Tesla can at least get a handful of
sedans ready for the spotlight. More

Hyundai Sonata Hybrid
The
Sonata Hybrid may have taken longer than expected to hit the market,
but its lithium-polymer battery pack and host of fuel-saving features
have given Hyundai 35 miles per gallon city and 40 mpg highway
fuel economy numbers to flash before consumers. And the Sonata
Hybrid isn't battling the competition on fuel economy alone. It
also features attractive styling that sharply differentiates it
from non-hybrid Sonata models, while also carrying an MSRP thousands
of dollars less than the Toyota Camry Hybrid and Ford Fusion Hybrid.

Hyundai Equus Ultimate
Equus
Ultimate succeeds at feeling like a great value, but stops short
of feeling like a great full-size luxury sedan. That's partially
due to the interior and partially due to the 4.6-liter Tau V8.
Its 385 horsepower and 333 pound-feet of torque certainly aren't
anything to sneeze at, but this is 4,600-pound mass of Korean
real estate, and it simply feels adequate. Other media outlets
have tested the Equus and found 0-60 times in the mid-to-high
six-second range, so it's certainly not slow, but the ECU and
transmission tuning makes both off-the-line acceleration and highway
passing feel more leisurely than we'd expect. More

BMW Z4 sDrive28i
Next
year, BMW will begin offering its turbocharged and direct-injected
2.0-liter inline four-cylinder engine on the 3 Series and 5 Series,
matching Audi car-for-car in the entry-level and mid-size segments.
But before the sedans arrive on U.S. shores – nixing the naturally
aspirated 3.0-liter inline-six in the process – BMW is slipping
its TwinPower four-cylinder into an unlikely host: the 2012 Z4
sDrive28i. More

Performance Modifications
When
a road car is designed, many compromises must be made in order
to satisfy a wide audience. For some people the most important
aspects of a car are its reliability and economy, while others
are more concerned about its performance and raw power. There
are also legal considerations that a manufacturer must take into
account, for instance all new cars must be detuned below 3,000
rpm in order to reduce emissions. More

Hyundai Elantra Limited
While
entries like the Cruze and Focus have garnered lots of attention,
the Elantra has quietly established itself as a worthy alternative
in this suddenly competitive segment. The redesigned Hyundai caught
our attention with its expressive styling, an improved cabin and
40 miles per gallon highway rating. It sounds like a winning game
plan to us, but does this revitalized Hyundai live up to its impressive
stat sheet. . More

Aston
Martin subtly confirms production for V12 Zagato
Take
a look at Aston Martin's website and you may notice a new model
listed in its portfolio. Slotted in between the One-77 and the
DBS sits the V12 Zagato, effectively confirming the new model's
place in the company's production lineup and accompanied, in the
fourth slide showcasing the model, by the statement "only
a strictly limited run of road going cars will be built".
The V12 Zagato is based on the Aston Martin V12 Vantage, but features
fresh bodywork penned by the namesake Italian design house. The
car celebrates of fifty years of collaboration between Aston Martin
and Zagato, dating back to the original DB4 GT. More

Review:
2011 Chrysler 300 V6
When
the 300 first bowed in 2005, it brought a new-found element of
menacing appeal to the full-size segment thanks to its high shoulder
line, chopped roof and vertical grille. The design may have borrowed
more than a few cues from the Bentley stable, but buyers were
more than happy to embrace the high-dollar association. For 2011,
Chrysler insists the 300 is all-new from tires to taillights,
though much of that same look has held on for the new generation.
The company’s designers have given the big beast a more mature
nose with LED-trimmed projection headlamps, touches of chrome
and a more subdued grille. More

First
Drive: 2012 Ferrari FF
FF
means “Ferrari Four” and this unashamedly standout model will
most likely cost around $300,000 when it hits North American ports
in the end of October of this year. That’s cheap. Why keep a $173,200
Porsche Panamera Turbo S, a $39,680 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited
4×4, a $111,100 Corvette ZR1, and a $21,200 Ford Transit Connect
cluttered in your drive, when you can save both money and garage
space by snapping up the ingenious and rare all-wheel-drive 651-horsepower
Ferrari FF and call it a day? More

Review:
2011 Lexus IS 250 AWD
The
Lexus IS 250 is instantly familiar, yet ever-so-slightly different
for 2011. The reason is that little has changed on the exterior,
with a few minor exceptions. Some updates are hard to find, while
others are immediately clear. The front bumper and grille have
received slight tweaks, while subtle changes have been made to
the foglight area and lower fascia opening, which benefit from
sharper cutouts. In back, the IS 250 wears new taillamp lenses
and redone exhaust tips. More

2012 Ford Focus Titanium
There’s
just one engine option for the 2012 Focus. The direct-injected
2.0-liter four cylinder powerplant puts out 160 horsepower at
6,500 rpm and 146 pound-feet of torque at 4,450 rpm. Those figures
put the Focus near the the head of its class, which includes the
Hyundai Elantra (148 horses and 131 lb-ft), Chevrolet Cruze (138
hp and 148 lb-ft), Honda Civic (the new 2012 model is rated at
140 horsepower, torque TBA) and Toyota Corolla (132 hp and 128
lb-ft). Among its primary rivals, the Ford is only bested by the
Mazda3 s, which packs 167 hp and 168 lb-ft. More

Officially
Official: Porsche releases 918 hybrid details, priced from $845,000
Porsche
has announced that dealers the world over have begun taking orders
for the company’s 918 Spyder. The plug-in hybrid will boast a
500-horsepower, 4.0-liter V8 engine and two electric motors capable
of a combined 218 horsepower. Porsche says the hybrid powertrain
will consume a mere 3.0 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers – or
around 78 mpg. The German automaker hasn’t released any fuel economy
estimates based on U.S. testing standards, though EPA figures
are said to be on the way. Look for the gas-electric Porsche supercar
to touch down on U.S. soil by late 2013. More

Review:
2011 Audi A8
The
combination of the lightweight aluminum space-frame chassis and
the 372 horsepower, 4.2-liter direct injection V8 means the A8
is on par with its peers, but the addition of Audi’s rear-biased
Quattro all-wheel-drive puts it into new territory. While the
engine’s output is far from world-beating, the 328 pound-feet
of torque available from 3,500 rpm onwards is more than enough
to effortlessly merge with freeway traffic and blow into triple
digits without thinking twice. But what impressed more than anything
is the utter chuckability of what is – by all outward appearances
– a ponderous, massive slab of aluminum and steel.More
