On the “very exciting” list, we have a new Subaru Outback, Toyota Highlander, Ford Escape, Lincoln Corsair, Cadillac CT5, and Hyundai Venue (the latter is my vote for “most likely to be misspelled”). On the dull side, we have Alfa Romeo special editions and the Maserati “One of One” program, […]
Reports that cars are dead have been grossly exaggerated. The market for sedans and coupes is falling fast, but there are still hundreds of thousands of buyers in the United States. The #1 best selling car in America, the Toyota Camry, may be down by 9% from last year (year-to-date), […]

According to Reuters, Lucid Motors, based near Apple’s old turf in Fremont, California, is the real target of Saudi Arabia. Tesla founder Elon Musk claimed that Saudi Arabia was planning to fund a bid to take Tesla private — which would have cost $72 billion for the stock buyout and […]
