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.

If General Motors has a distinctive engineering tradition it's a weird commitment to V8 front-drivers. Since the introduction of the 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado, GM has always had at least one V8-powered front-driver in its product line. Usually two.

Sitting on the Mercedes-Benz stand at the Geneva Motor Show back in 2004, the first CLS astonished styling critics. Even die-hard two-seater fans liked its radical new four-door coupe design. With that hammered roof, arched body reveals and radius-ed wheel openings, the low-slung CLS500 looked more like a snazzy show car than a boring sedan. Then the supercharged CLS55 AMG soon appeared with 469 horsepower.

As you may remember, last summer, one of our writer’s had the pleasure of attending the PRO Mercedes AMG Driving Academy.

Proving that evolution never stops, even among things that appear to be rather highly evolved already, is the upcoming 2011 Aptera 2e. The space-age three-wheeler may have been delayed “to align with financing realities,” but while Aptera’s suits are out shaking money from trees (and the government), the engineers and designers have been busy evolving the two-seater to make it more livable once it is finally ready for prime time.

Infiniti made quite a splash at this year’s Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. The company brought its gorgeous Essence concept car—a coupe whose proportions and grace would certainly land it on the lawn for the 2059 Concours—and also (virtually) announced the 2011 Infiniti M.

Maserati is set to build a midsize sport luxury sedan to rival the likes of the BMW 5 Series/M5, Mercedes CLS/AMG, Jaguar XF/XFR, and Cadillac CTS/CTS-v. The car is smaller than the Quattroporte, which will continue. It will go on market about 2014, probably as a '15 model in the U.S. Although it's in the product plan, there's no frozen design (one possible look is depicted in the illustration), and running prototypes would be years away. Maserati wants to become a "relevant player" within its chosen luxury segments. Adding the new model would allow it to strengthen dealer coverage and brand visibility. The all-new car is part of Maserati's 2010-'14 business plan, which Fiat Group CEO Sergio Marchionne recently revealed to investors.

No, that's not a typo. The latest design exercise from Mercedes-Benz, set to make its debut at this week's 2010 Beijing Auto Show, is in fact called the Shooting Break concept. That's 'Break,' not the more traditional English 'brake' normally reserved for two-door, wagon-styled, coupe-based hatchbacks originally designed for hunting trips. But perhaps that's because this isn't that type of car.
