Toyota Motor Corp. initially planned to make 150,000 RAV-4s a year at the plant, but scaled... Full article...

Right now, buyers with good credit can pick up a brand new 2008 or 2009 Civic with 1.9% financing for 36 months or 3.9% APR for up to 60 months. All models except the GX are... Full article...

In a plan sent to Congress on Tuesday to support its loan request, Chrysler said it had $9.4 billion in cash at the end of June but expects to end the year with only $2.5 billion cash on hand because of a collapse in U.S. auto sales aggravated by a financial crisis.

Of course not - Porsche dropped out of Detroit last year before Rolls-Royce, Ferrari, Mitsubishi, Suzuki and Nissan knew what was up. Then good ol’ 2009 Geneva Motor Show would be perfect for the Panamera to show itself to the public. Wrong again; Porsche has announced that its brand new four-door will make its auto show debut at the Shanghai auto show in April instead of Geneva, as originally planned.Why the switch? Porsche feels that its... Full article...

The venerable British brand started getting its first bespoke designs in over half a century, which paid off in a huge spike in sales. After topping 10,000 sales for the first time in 2007, Bentley is feeling the same force of gravity as everyone else except Audi it seems this year. So far sales have dropped by 30 percent in 2008 and the Crewe factory has... Full article...

Just a few days after announcing that it would be pulling out of both the Detroit Auto Show and the Chicago Auto Show, Nissan has changed its mind. Sort of. The Japanese automaker will indeed have a presence in the Windy City thanks to the support of its local dealerships, which will be manning the show in lieu of an official factory effort. This being the case, don't expect a particularly showy display, but at least attendees will get the chance to see the new 370Z, Cube and... Full article...

However, due to the current economic downturn directly affecting the auto industry, a lot of manufacturers are deciding to let go attending the present series of events to lower costs. Surprisingly enough, it is not only the smaller, struggling companies that you might expect to hold back, but even high-end brands like... Full article...

Long live the R15. That's the moniker given to the next-generation Le Mans prototype set to wear the interlocking rings. The car will make its race debut in March at the 12 Hours of Sebring, and by the time the 24 Hours of Le Mans rolls around in June, Audi will have three of the cars ready to defend the trophy won by the R10 earlier this year.
