2012 Honda Civic revealed You know when you were a kid and when you though something was "stupid", you put your tongue behind your bottom lip and made an ummming sound... this is what the front of this reminds me of. Come to think of it same with the Insight... well done Honda...

Toyota Avensis BTCC touring car gets ready To be fair, the Avensis chasis is well engineered, thoroughly modern and good enough to underpin the Scion Tc, Lexi HS and CT as well as others in the Toyota empire. It should serve the two teams well in terms of dynamics for the BTCC races.

GM's new Baojun 630 revealed for China And it comes with alloy wheels, unlike say a base civic dx!

VW adds BlueMotion to Scirocco and Passat CC models (UK) But the Volt does 37mpg (using the generator), uses heavy batteries, has an amazing range of 344+35 miles and costs $41,000 so it is obviously way way better. Ok, i jest... but the Volt is supposed to be the next revolution and a standard sports tuned (over the Golf) Scirocco with turn off-turn on engine is more economical?

Aston Martin Cygnet unveiled at Harrod's department store If they have to do this to keep building one77s, then go ahead and god bless them for not diluting their proper lineup.

2011 Toyota Corolla Debuts at LA Auto Show [video] Car companies spend millions on market research, i just dont get it. Maybe Toyota has Scion now to be more daring? Maybe they know more than i do?

2011 Acura TSX facelift unveiled in L.A. Sticking an Acura badge on a Honda Accord does not make it a premium product, but it comes with a brighter display, so everything is rosy and no doubt people will pay more because of that innovation.

Audi A1 e-tron details released [video] Seriously, why aren't we getting the A1 in N.America ?

Production ready Honda New Small Vehicle Concept to debut in Thailand It looks like Wallace and Gromit

Audi wants diesel option in most of its U.S. lineup by 2015 Emm, have u ever been anywhere in Europe sunshine? Europe is old last time i checked, really old, and some cities are pretty dirty. If you bothered to do any research at all you'd know that a particle filter means the air coming out of the exhaust is cleaner than the air going in. Besides, 50% of A3s being diesel in a country where fuel is cheaper than water, i'd call that demand. Oh and diesel is more expensive in some EU countries, in the UK significantly. I'd recommend test driving the A3 before making rash statements.
