Chrysler used to sell sedans, convertibles, an SUV, even the funky PT Cruiser and sporty Crossfire.

Now, it's down to just one model: the Pacifica minivan. That increasingly limited focus and lack of investment has fueled concerns that the century-old brand owned by Stellantis NV could eventually head the way of other defunct Detroit Three ...Read more

The United Auto Workers called off plans for a strike authorization vote at Stellantis NV's Sterling Heights (Michigan) Assembly Plant this week after saying it had resolved grievances with the automaker over alleged outsourcing of work.

"The company has come to us, we've had multiple discussions, and we've come to a resolution to resolve those...Read more

Lexus announced the discontinuation of its flagship LS sedan, the car that launched Toyota’s luxury brand in 1989. The original LS400 was enchanting, a car that could compete with the Mercedes S-Class at half the price and probably twice the quality. It set the entire luxury segment back on its wheels as storied brands scurried to compete. The...Read more

WASHINGTON — Who says Chinese cars aren’t sold in the United States?

Produced by Chinese auto giant Geely, the Polestar 4 SUV debuted this year into the U.S. market’s most competitive luxury segment: electric vehicles.

Its Swedish design is wrapped around Geely’s Sustainability Experience Architecture — a platform shared with other ...Read more

The Hyundai Palisade and its Kia-badged sibling, the Telluride, have each been hot sellers. Part of the reason why is probably because they're both refreshingly inexpensive -- under $40,000 to start for a full-size, seven-to-eight-passenger crossover being just that these days -- and even more so because for that you get a standard V6 engine, a ...Read more

Lincoln has always been a luxury brand.

Meaning it isn't a luxury-sport brand, which is what pretty much every other luxury brand has turned into over the past 25 years or so. There was a brief dabbling with the luxury-sport thing back in the mid-to-late '80s and into the '90s, with models like the Mark VII LSC sport coupe and the LS ...Read more

Now that every "car" company sells mostly crossovers, how do you get the crossover you're hoping to sell to stand out from the crowd? One of the ways Infiniti has come up with is to offer a crossover that has an engine that's different than the engine you'll find in any other crossover.

What It is

The QX60 is a midsize, three-row luxury ...Read more

In case you didn't know, Mazda only sells two cars now -- and one of them (the Miata) isn't exactly what you'd call a family car.

Everything else Mazda currently sells is a crossover.

Except for one other.

It's the 3 -- still available as a sedan or a five-door hatchback. Both are alternatives to a crossover, which for some of us is ...Read more

How much difference does two years make? About $3,385 is how much. That is how much more Lexus is asking for the 2026 GX550 -- which is otherwise identical to the 2024 GX550.

This isn't Toyota's fault, by the way. It is a consequence of the tariffs (that is to say, the taxes) Toyota is having to pay -- which means you'll be paying for ...Read more

Once upon a time, Volkswagen's GTI was a hopped-up Golf.

The Golf (also called the Rabbit for a while) was the mass-market model; the GTI the performance model -- similar to the way there's a Mustang and also a Mustang GT.

Both the Golf and the GTI were once pretty inexpensive too.

Now there's just the GTI, VW having canceled the Golf (in the...Read more

You may have heard the news that the 2027 Toyota Highlander is going to be electric only. That may not be welcome news if you're wanting a Highlander that isn't an electric vehicle.

The good news is that the Grand Highlander still comes standard with an engine rather than a battery pack. It also has something else the regular Highlander hasn't ...Read more
