VIDEO: Yes, the 2010 Audi S4 can drift

When we drove the 2010 Audi S4, we praised the sedan's trick electronic rear differential for its ability to shuffle torque between the rear wheels to give the sensation, if not the exact effect, of oversteer. Unfortunately, our track time was spent in an e-diffless model, so we didn't get to fully exploit its potential around Infineon.

VIDEO: Saab 9-3X commercial is all about changing perspective(s) 2 months ago on Autoblog

Saab really has been changing perspective lately, from the look of its cars to the people who decide on the look of its cars. That kind of thing will happen when you enter bankruptcy and are sold back into the bosom of your homeland. So this Saab 9-3X commercial is a, yes, quirky, look at the ...

Honda teases new Crosstour on Facebook 2 months ago on Autoblog

Geneva 2009: 2010 Saab 9-3X ideal wagon for lingonberry picking 8 months ago on Autoblog

Saab debuted its 9-3X at the Geneva Motor Show, and while it's a new market for the Swedish brand (we'll try to forget about the body-on-frame 9-7X, thank you), we suspect that the lifted load-lugger will probably outsell the standard SportCombi by a healthy margin Stateside, given America's ...

It's been several years in the making, but BMW's plan to expand their inroads further into the "lifestyle" market appears ready to finally bear fruit. Looking something like a ground-bound X6 that's missed a few collagen injections, the 5 Series Gran Turismo concept will likely be one of the ...

Spy Shots: BMW 5-Series Touring 10 months ago on Autoblog

Who needs a 5-Series PAS when you've got one of these? The next BMW 5-Series Touring is out testing, and despite the fact that it looks as long as a football field and it's buried under cladding, it doesn't look awkward or ungainly – something that cannot exactly be said for the coming ...

Spy Shots: E-Class wagon 10 months ago on Autoblog

When we saw spy shots of the E63 AMG wagon a couple of months ago, we thought the extended lines might diminish the stubbiness of the E Class sedan.

Spy Shots: BMW V5 1 year ago on Autoblog

A BMW V5 prototype has been let loose under a wardrobe's worth of camo, but you can still see it remains true to the early renderings.

Aston Martin Lagonda line could have SUV flavor 1 year ago on Autoblog

When we recently posted on Aston Martin dragging Lagonda out of its crypt, one of the assertions was that "they've reportedly ruled out the possibility of a sport-ute."
