After the BMW 5-Series GT, the German luxury car manufacturer has reiterated the GT concept by adding it to the 6 Series range. The termination of the 6-Series Coupe has liberated a bit of room to accommodate the new addition. BMW hopes that the swooping coupe-ish lines of the 6 Series will revive the sales of the GT.
Yep, we’ve bought yet another car, adding to our ever-expanding self-owned long-term fleet. We hyped it long enough on our Facebook page where we asked our fans to guess the car, and it was great fun watching the comments pour in. This here is a 2015 Chrysler 300 SRT in a rare red colour, and in full-option trim — so fully-optioned, that you won’t find this specification at all dealers as it was originally custom-ordered.
After the WRX STI Type RA, Subaru has given their BRZ sports coupe a performance update. The special model, called the BRZ tS and seen in this solitary photo, comes with an array of performance upgrades. But contrary to expectations, there is no turbocharging. The 2.0-litre boxer engine will continue its duty in the tS.
We drove this new Honda CR-V just before heading out to Japan to drive, among other things, a Civic Type-R. While the two cars are miles apart, it is easy to forget that Honda has always been a clever engineering company, given that we don’t see the company’s most popular creations at showrooms here. However, the new CR-V actually has a lot of engineering poured into it, for the benefit of regular folks rather than just enthusiasts.
Porsche’s boffins at Stuttgart have revealed yet another 911 to sit on top of the already mental 911 Turbo S. Called the 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series, the production numbers of this new variant does justice to its name as it is limited to 500 units.
When Volkswagen first debuted the Passat CC, it turned quite a few heads. Not only because it looked good, but also the question of “why?”, especially as the CC version was priced higher than an already-existing Passat. Lucky for us at that time, Volkswagen decided to help us understand the “why” question and offered us the VW Passat CC V6 for 5 months. If you had been following our reports back in 2011, you would probably know we bloody fell in love with that car. Power, handling, comfort and luxury in a more stylish package — it ticked all the right boxes and justified the price premium over the standard Passat.
Subaru is wooing its fans with an updated edition of its popular WRX STI sedan with just a single photo. Called the WRX STI Type RA, the new car features a bunch of visual updates along with a flurry of performance upgrades.
Camouflaged prototypes of the upcoming BMW 8-Series, updated BMW X5 and the new Rolls-Royce Cullinan SUV have been spotted in different parts of the UAE, sometimes even hanging out together as they are all part of the same company.
Honda exclusively invited us to an international press meeting in Japan where President & CEO Takahiro Hachigo discussed the future direction of Honda as part of their 2030 Vision plan.
In terms of sheer volume, there is no bigger automotive segment than the one comprising compact SUVs. Jeep recognised this more than a decade ago and rolled out the Compass and Patriot to target the horde of (mainly) young buyers snapping up crossovers by the hundreds of thousands. It was a new foray for a brand that had until that point focused on larger, heavy-duty SUVs that embodied Jeep’s conquer-all-terrain roots.
