To refresh your memory, the Converj is a sexy 2+2 coupe riding on a version of the Chevrolet Volt's Voltec platform, powered by a 16 kW set of lithium-ion batteries with a 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine for recharging purposes only.

"Who made up that joke? Sorry, I've never heard of such a purchase plan," said an assistant to the general manager of Sichuan Auto Industry, who like many media-shy Chinese would only give his surname, Chen.

Lipstick on a dinosaur? Far from it -- no matter what some groups may shout in an overly shrill voice. SUVs still serve a purpose. They still have unmatched capabilities and still can do things crossovers and cars can only dream about.

The industry expects consumer interest in small premium crossovers to grow and consequently the number of entries in the sector is expanding dramatically. The upscale small sport utility vehicle format was successfully established several years ago by Lexus with the RX300, and since then a few primary rivals have emerged, such as the Acura MDX, Infiniti EX35 and BMW X3. But this year a... Full article...

All who saw this Cadillac tank on wheels built by General Motors Corp. had to be impressed. While the people at GM who built this monster are understandably mum about the specifics of its features -- for security reasons very few people were privy to the development of its design -- we do know some of the basics of the car engineered to get the new...
