Late last year, Kia vice chairman Hyoung-Keun Lee said that the brand would be a genuine competitor to the established luxury automakers by 2017. That time frame seems rather ambitious considering that Kia has gone without a flagship here since the Amanti went out of production in 2010, and a competitive flagship since, well, ever. (The plan also seems ambitious because, well, just read it again.) And while the rear-drive Quoris/K9 is Kia’s range-topper in Korea, its derivative design and distant arri…

Nissan will launch a direct rival to the Ford Focus and Volkswagen Golf in 2014, and will build it in Sunderland. It will be the first time the Japanese manufacturer has offered a new car in the European small family hatchback class since 2006, when the Sunderland-built Almera was withdrawn.Since then Nissan has marketed the Qashqai crossover, after it concluded in the early 2000s that it could only compete in the family car segment by offering something different.It subsequently applied the sam…

Except for Chrysler, domestic automakers have abandoned the minivan market. Neither GM nor Ford sell a minivan in the U.S. because Americans would rather drive SUVs like the Chevrolet Traverse and Ford Explorer. Europeans, on the other hand, love their minivans, or MPVs. While GM and Ford offer an assortment of minivans in Europe, only [...]

“Four-door coupes” sell better than real two-doors in today’s marketplace. The reason why that happens usually comes down to practicality. Most buyers want to carry more passengers and gear. When you have more expendable income to kick around on a second car, it can be less of a concern.

Despite a lot of noises to the contrary, a high-end exotic SUV has yet to be offered by any of the major manufacturers. Lamborghini produced the LM002 between 1986 and 1993, but nothing has come to fruition since then. Eterniti Motors, a British auto manufacturer, is aiming to be a pioneer of this segment.

VW hopes to redraw the map of the small-car segment.
Finally, here’s a production car that looks like the concept from which it was derived. The Volkswagen Up! (yes, it includes the exclamation point) doesn’t deviate much at all from the show car that surprised the industry four years ago—at least not visually.
