We can never be too sure, but if this turns out to be the next Mitsubishi Outlander, we wouldn’t be surprised. But for now, it’s given a clichéd boring nickname; the XR-PHEV. In any case, this is one of Mitsubishi’s offerings at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show this year.
The Hyundai Veloster is a decent vehicle. It looks good, has the comforts of a 4-door hatchback and offers decent features for the price it comes at. However, Hyundai has officially unveiled the “not-your-average” Veloster in a Turbo R-Spec form at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show.
They’ve teased enough, and we’ve waited enough. Yes, Porsche has revealed the Macan crossover and made its official debut at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto show this week.

Firstly, lets point out that Toyota isn’t doing all that bad in the Japanese taxi industry.

It is interesting that Honda has chosen India to launch the all-new version of the subcompact Honda City, which pretty much sums up their target market. The new model literally debuted just hours ago at a media event in New Delhi.
The Tokyo Motor Show is the top automotive motorshow in Asia, and the 2013 edition kicked off on November 20 with an array of international debuts. Alongside parallel debuts with the L.A.

The Ford Edge neatly fits in between the Explorer and the Escape in the GCC market. And the edgy styling helped it become one of Ford’s best-sellers here. Ford is previewing the new Edge at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show. The catch? It’s still in its “concept” phase.
