Carbon Motors TX7 Multi-Mission Vehicle reporting for duty
Carbon Motors, the company that had been peddling the custom-built E7 police car prototype since 2008, has actually launched a vehicle, and it’s not the E7 police car. They’ve officially unveiled their TX7 Multi Mission Vehicle (MMV), essentially a big van.
Infiniti changing naming structure, calling all Q models
In what has to be the most convoluted move in attempting to create a brand identity, Infiniti has decided to rename all their models to have their names start with the letter Q, dropping the G, M, FX, EX, QX and even the new JX, names that they’ve worked all these years to build up. So much for brand equity.

Video of the week: Dodge vs Chevy truck tug-of-war goes overboard
Among the motorsports practised by citizens of civilised nations such as America is tug-of-war, a test of strength and resilience. Even better if it’s done with big pointless pickup trucks! Here’s a tug-of-war battle between a Chevrolet Silverado and a Dodge Ram. The outcome is obvious, but winner goes totally overboard!

So we got a 2013 Lexus LS 460L
This here is the latest Lexus LS 460L, that last “L” meaning it’s a long-wheelbase version. The carmaker claims it is an “all-new” model, and we sort of agreed with that when we drove it at the launch event for an hour or so. However, after bringing it home, we feel it still drives very similarly to the old one.
BMW, Jaguar, Porsche and Mercedes-Benz recalls
Gone are the days when you got what you paid for. Four luxury carmakers — BMW, Jaguar, Porsche and Mercedes-Benz — have issued recalls on various models, some more serious than others.
First drive: Isuzu D-Max 2013 in Dubai
It seems like just yesterday when we drove the Isuzu D-Max around a racetrack in Bahrain. In fact, it was just earlier this year. But that was the old model. What we drove this week was the new 2013 model, completely new in almost every possible way. But why would you be interested in a pickup review? Well, we took it around an autocross course as well as offroad.
