"We've paid for our show stand," said Bentley engineering chief Ulrich Eichhorn as we sat in the back of a Continental Flying Spur to escape the heat and the noise of the first media day at Auto Shanghai 2009. All four Bentleys on display -- the Flying Spur, a Continental GT Speed and GTC Speed, and an Arnage -- had been sold to eager Chinese buyers by 2pm.A few minutes earlier, Rolls-Royce boss Tom Purves had announced the new "small" Rolls-Royce would be called the Ghost, and...

The minivan first became a significant part of the American automotive marketplace in the mid-1980s with the introduction of the Dodge Caravan. For years it reigned as the king of family movers, and for good reason. Most minivans can carry at least seven passengers, and if space for stuff is needed, seats can be folded flat, folded into the floor, or even removed all... Full article...

Silicon Valley failed to deliver its first car on time. The traditional auto industry was sniggering. But let's cut Tesla some slack. Does Motown always get its stuff onto the showroom floor dead on schedule? Especially its paradigm-shift products? Of course not.And now the Roadster is here. Orders are being fulfilled, which is just as well as recent retrenchment by the company shows they need all the revenue they can get.The car we drive today... Full article...

Then the most dismal financial crisis since the Great Depression brought down sales of virtually everything else, from pickups to Priuses to iPods.Amid the mayhem, General Motors delayed the production CTS coupe to at least summer 2010, three years into the life cycle of the sedan on which it is based.

Yet, it was the deft combination of power and utility that made the hatchback irresistible. The 2010 Mazdaspeed3, fortunately, relies on much of the previous generation's hardware -- engine included -- but gains Mazda's smiley-face aesthetics, an updated suspension and driveline, and reworked electronics to improve upon an already stout platform.As with the standard Mazda3, Mazda's "Nagare" design language is apparent...

But what’s holding up the widespread use of ‘green’ alternative fuels like biodiesel and E85, especially in states like California that have long been at the leading edge of alternative fuel vehicle efforts? It’s definitely not the technology. Right now, there are millions of flexible-fuel vehicles already on American roads that can use the industry-standard E85 mix of 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent... Full article...

Nissan's NuVu, or 'New View,' city car concept is just that. It may make you smile, laugh, do a double-take, shake your head, draw you in for a closer look, or all of the above. One thing you can't do, however, is ignore it. NuVu is nothing short of a complete rethinking of the car's role in an urban environment.
