Just when you thought cool, creative nomenclature had all but disappeared from the automotive world—we’re looking at you, Infiniti—Subaru has announced the awesomely 1950s-sounding Starlink brand for all of its in-car tech going forward. Unlike Ford’s Sync or Chevrolet’s MyLink, Subaru’s Starlink moniker will be applied to more than just infotainment, even though connectivity will be a big part of Starlink.

It’s rather unprecedented for a car company to launch a mid-cycle freshening after merely 18 months on the market. But that’s exactly what Honda did after our criticism of the 2012 Civic.
Shortly after Honda launched the 2012 Civic, we tested it. The resulting overall test score, based on more than 50 individual tests, was too low to meet the threshold for being recommended. The 2012 redesign was a measured step back, and, unfortunately came at a time when many competitors stepped up their game. (And …
Known for its high-revving VTEC engines and hybrids in the U.S., Honda long resisted developing its own diesel for the European market, where compression-ignition engines have dominated market share for decades. Ironically, it put its one-time Formula One engineer Kenichi Nagahiro, a self-professed “diesel hater” on its original 2.2-liter i-DTEC engine, noteworthy for its light [...]
The Volkswagen Beetle was conceived and developed mainly for the U.S. market, but that doesn’t mean that Europe takes a back seat when it comes to new ideas and additions of the lineup. VW has just announced “Exclusive” trims for Continental-market coupes and convertibles that will sit atop the Beetle’s “Design” and “Sport” models in the lineup.
Exclusive Beetles include 18-inch wheels as standard; the optional 19-inch wheels have white or black accents….
The race is on to produce electric vehicles that have a usable driving range to become a first car for the majority of Americans. Nissan didn’t spend much time developing the LEAF, and the proof is in the pudding. Range is very limited, and issues with owners in hot climates like Pheonix are becoming widespread.
That’s because it doesn’t utilize any thermal cooling in the battery pack, something that many pointed out as an issue from the get go. Currently only one EV is suitable fo…
The boogie-woogie band was on hand in SoHo on Tuesday night to introduce the limited-edition sedan.
Volvo and its racing partner, Polestar, have become more and more entwined recently, and the latest result of their partnership is this hotted-up C30 Polestar Limited Edition. Polestar first created a high-performance C30 concept car two years ago, and more recently rolled out Volvo-backed tuning kits for the Swedish automaker’s turbocharged T5 inline-five and T6 inline-six cylinder engines, as well as an awesome 508-hp, 186-mph S60 concept car. The 2013 C30 Polestar Limited Edition, unfortunately, is…
In stock form, Jeep’s Grand Cherokee already more than lives up to the promise of its Trail-Rated badge, but the company is introducing a new model for those who yearn for even more off-road chops. The newest Grand Cherokee variant is called the Trailhawk, and it was previewed this past spring at Jeep’s annual Moab Easter Safari off-road event. In fact, the production Trailhawk is pretty much the same as the concept rig; that’s fine by us, since we thought the concept looked pretty darn cool.
