The Continental: Frankfurt Electric Facts, a Faster Mondeo, and German Enthusiasts Aren’t Saving the Manuals

The Continental: Frankf...

Each week, our German correspondent slices and dices the latest rumblings, news, and quick-hit driving impressions from the other side of the pond. His byline may say Jens Meiners, but we simply call him . . . the Continental. The Frankfurt auto show has closed its doors for another two...
Grave Digger Driver Dennis Anderson Has a TV Show, You Can Watch It This Weekend

Grave Digger Driver Den...

The concept is both simple and ambitious: travel the world using 80 different modes of transportation, with no repeats. We’re guessing a monster truck won’t be among them, despite the fact that Dennis Anderson—creator of Grave Digger, and the interviewee in the What...

Spied: 2013 Lincoln MKT...

We caught a glimpse of the refreshed 2013 Lincoln MKS yesterday, and running in the pack with it our spy photographers spotted the 2013 MKT crossover. As you can see in these pictures, it too will receive a new rendition of the brand’s waterfall grille. Just as on the MKS, the MKT’s...

With this 535i-based gas-electric, BMW finally moves toward mainstream hybrid appeal. BMW’s earlier steps into hybridization haven’t been the most decisive. The hybrid vehicles it has offered so far start at nearly $90,000 and don’t quite have the impressive fuel-economy numbers...

Ferrari Video Pits 599G...

Ferrari has released a video called “Duel for the Crown – 599 GTB Fiorano Official Video,” and if it weren’t so cool we would probably expend more words on the fact that the clip has come out several years after the 599 first went on sale. But this isn’t some boring walkaround...
