The arrival of the new 2016 Volkswagen Passat was never going to receive the fanfare of a new Ferrari for example, but it does make a good alternative to buying such mainstream cars as the Camry or the Accord. Being typically Teutonic, the new Passat’s changes are subtle and include a slightly

The model I drove for a week was the 2015 Grand Cherokee Ecodiesel Summit , which was absolutely loaded with goodies and had the much anticipated optional EcoDiesel engine. The 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel is very impressive and would be our choice of power, for 2 very important reasons,

“Did you bring a spare set of tires” was the question I asked the driver who delivered the 2015 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack. He grinned and shook his head. I asked that question because I knew the Challenger would have traction issues when I saw it was only wearing

How should you pronounce Touareg? Well here in the States most people say ‘Tour-egg’ and across the pond they say ‘Twah-regg’. I bet you’re glad you know that now.  Volkswagen is expected to expand its SUV lineup in a few years. The new Tiguan was just announced and is bigger and more grown up.
