If Acura is to be believed, the vehicle above is not an SUX, not CUV, and not a wagon. No, Acura is calling the 2010 ZDX a four-door sports coupe. If you thought the BMW X6 was an odd bird, you're going to love this.

Apparently, even rickshaws can be turned into futuristic concept cars, and shockingly enough, this one has a Maybach badge on it. Sure, it’s only a concept vehicle, but can you imagine riding the streets of the Far East on a Maybach rickshaw in the not-so-distant future?

Opel – or Vauxhall, if you live in the UK – has just revealed the facelifted version of the new Corsa hatchback. Not that we’re overly excited by it, but if you just happen to be waiting for the new Corsa model to be launched, well, here it is.

The first-generation E30-series BMW M3 wasn't the fastest M3 ever built. It certainly wasn't the most luxurious or the most refined. But it was the smallest, purest and, in the opinion of many, the most dynamic M3 from a driver's perspective. And it's the E30 M3 that BMW attempts to channel with the new 1 Series M Coupe.
Consider the 1 Series M Coupe's dimensions. Measuring 172.4 inches from nose to tail, the car is just 1.3-inches longer than a 1988 M3. Of course, the M Coupe is wider by 4.8 inches, has a longer wheelbase by 3 inches, and is heavier by several hundred pounds (3296 compared to the 1988 M3's 2800-pound curb weight). Still, compared to the current 3700-pound M3 coupe, the 1 Series M is a lightweight.

It was quite a sight. Across the giant oval conference table from Volkswagen board member Christian Klingler and myself (I happened to be seated next to him) was a row of mostly New Age green-car journalists wearing expressions of absolute disbelief. (As well as a look of complete exhaustion after a long day that included a high-speed train ride from Berlin to Wolfsburg, a tour of Volkswagen's Autostadt auto-amusement park, an unexpected brief drive in the Golf R -- including getting completely lost -- and finally, a brief stint through drizzling evening traffic behind the wheel of what I thought I'd come here for in the first place: the prototype battery-electric Golf Blue-e-motion.)

This looks familiar, doesn't it? We drove a 2011 BMW X1 about a year and a half ago, and if you're looking for the differences, you're not going to find them in the pictures. But this really is a different vehicle.

We were surprised when Kia didn't make us pile into the redesigned 2006 Kia Sedona family-style for the drive to Sea World.

Granted, we were all past the age of squealing with delight over feeding fish to dolphins, but the Sedona has always seemed like the ideal vehicle to take to Sea World — and not just because it seats seven. Here's a minivan that comes decently equipped without breaking the $25,000 barrier. That takes the edge off dropping $200 just to get your family of four into the park.

Throughout the economic conditions, it is interesting to note luxury car sales have been brisk as some customers were apparently able to achieve a financial footing more quickly than others. Enjoying sales up 17.1% in 2009 and 22.9% in 2010, luxury brand Audi boasts amazing US sales thanks to a desirable portfolio of vehicles. Starting with the entry-level Audi A3 before progressing right up to the supercar Audi R8, those cars as well as the choices in between is both tempting and indulging motorists. For too many, the upfront price of these vehicles leaves the inner desires of some automotive lovers unfed despite their hard work. After taking into consideration fuel, state auto insurance, as well as your whole financial well-being, the prospect of leasing a new or previously-owned Audi vehicle could be a sound opportunity to absorb the thrill of possessing German luxury. With Audi, they have been making the goal of luxury car motoring surprisingly accommodating but does require foresight.

The first photos of the 2012 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe have made their way onto the web.
The front of the new Mercedes C-Class matches that of the facelifted C-Class Sedan and Estate. Unique to the Coupe is that nearly everything is aft of the A-pillar. We prefer the pillarless design of other Mercedes-Benz Coupes and so we are slightly disappointed to see a B-pillar.

Mercedes and Audi may have drawn first blood in the electric-powered supercar wars with their SLS AMG E-Cell and e-tron prototypes respectively, but Toyota is reportedly set to take the fight to the Germans with an all-electric super sports car program of its own -- possibly with help from its new partner, Tesla.

Like it or not, BMW is coming out with its electric i3 in 2013. While BMW has yet to unveil a production version of its little city runabout, it seems pretty happy touting the concept around. This i3 Concept was spotted yesterday filming what’s presumably a new commercial in the windy city.
