What’s that you say? You want a sports car, but you don’t want to pay crazy-high insurance or fill the tank with high-octane every day or two? Chevy heard you (okay, so did Dodge, Mazda, Ford, Fiat, and almost everyone else) and, as always, there’s a Camaro that handles well, […]
Some people may be baffled by changes in General Motors branding, especially if they’re relying on old memories of what they used to be. That’s no surprise; brands change over time, sometimes radically, as Pontiac did when John DeLorean decided being grand-dad’s car was less profitable than selling higher-performance Chevys. […]
Real Fast Fotography captured this Camaro making the rounds in the Detroit metro area. For those not familiar with GM’s bewildering array of trim names, the 2018 Camaro SS 1LE had the company’s 6.2 liter V8, good for 455 horsepower and the same number of pound-feet of torque. The 2018 […]

In April, Reuters claimed that the Spark was being replaced by a crossover, though one could argue it already is […]

Ford F-150 The aluminum-bodied Ford F-150, longtime sales champion, has a clean but conservative design. Of the […]
It sounded like such a good idea: instead of putting a hybrid-electric powertrain into cars that are already efficient, GM and Dodge would put them into their least fuel-efficient vehicles. Increasing the mileage of their big pickups would save more fuel than optimizing a compact car. Companies (and people) may […]
