With more than 46 million Toyota Corollas sold globally since its introduction in 1966, it would be difficult to find a driver who did not recognize the name. Everyone, it seems, has a Corolla story. Many, though are going to be doing double takes when they see the re-imagined and reconfigured 2020 Toyota Corolla sedan. And that’s exactly the point.

For years I have dreamed of getting a Toyota Cressida, a rear-drive four-door sedan that shared its heart with the Supra of its day. Now with the Supra coming back, done in partnership with BMW, I have to wonder: The new four-door Toyota Supra is the BMW M340i, right?

The private car is the default transport option for many families. This reduces physical activity and increases greenhouse gas emissions, with unhealthy results for their children and the environment.

The last thing that you need to observe or hear while you are driving is any sort of vehicle malfunction. Such issues often mean hefty bills and time-consuming repairs.

Disastrous sedan sales. A bad bet on diesel. Brexit. China woes. Jag just can't catch a break.

Aston Martin confirmed on Tuesday that is upcoming luxury SUV will be called the DBX. In addition, Aston gave the public its first look at the first SUV in company history. The first photos to feature the DBX show one of its prototypes powering through the Welsh countryside.

Mazda is raising the bar for its popular CX-5 crossover, although it's already a 10Best winner in our book. For 2019, the CX-5 is adding a new, more luxurious trim level and an optional turbocharged four-cylinder engine, along with several new convenience features and a revised chassis that now includes Mazda's G-Vectoring Control.

Chevrolet’s entry-level lineup has been missing a performance variant ever since the Cobalt SS went out of production in 2010. However, GM hasn’t completely forgotten about the idea as the automaker has introduced the Cruze Sport6 SS concept at the São Paulo Motor Show. Featuring a turbocharged 1.4-liter engine equipped with a “high-performance package,” the Cruze SS has been transformed into a hot hatch that packs 295 hp (220 kW / 300 PS). Needless to say, this a huge improvement over the 2019 Cruze Hatchback which has a turbocharged 1.4-liter engine developing 153 hp (114 kW / 155 PS) and 177 lb-ft (239 Nm) of torque.

Each car was charged, stored and then tested in the same mild weather conditions, with the weight of an average driver and passenger on board. The climate control was set to 21deg C in every car and the headlights were left on throughout the test drive. Where applicable, the cars were driven in ‘Normal’ mode, with minimum interference from regenerative braking, at What Car?’s 19.4-mile test track.

You win some, you lose some. For Fiat Chrysler, the new Ram 1500 represents more of a win, both in terms of quality, drive experience, and especially crash ratings, which just rolled in from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The previous-generation 1500 lost marks in two areas: driver-side small-overlap front impacts (a weakness it shares with FCA’s rear-drive passenger cars) and roof strength. Both of these tests earned the 2018 1500 a “marginal” rating from the IIHS, sinking its overall score.

Plenty of auto manufacturers are known for high-tech factories that make halo cars. But usually those facilities are in Europe, like Bugatti’s sparkling white plant in France or McLaren’s incredible speed laboratory in England. Acura would like you to change your thinking here, one of the most advanced car factories in the world can be found in America’s heartland.

Opinion: We worry about glitchy driverless tech, but we should be worried about the remote human minders.

Europe gave the world some of its top automakers, but it's losing out to China in the race to build batteries for electric cars.

Academics worry how A.I. will be programmed to navigate ethical dilemmas. Founders of A.I.-driven companies don't.

Electric vehicles enable owners to have more choices for the sources of energy to power their vehicles.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has been promising some major improvements to Tesla Autopilot’s Summon feature in recent weeks.

London’s unpredictable pedestrians are teaching driverless cars to avoid hitting people. Software is being developed by a start-up based at Imperial College to scan and analyse footage of people walking along the capital’s busiest streets. It is then used to help autonomous vehicles better predict human behaviour and decision-making just before they dart across the road.

A 2000 Honda S2000 with just 1,001 miles in the odometer that sold for $48,000 is officially the highest-priced S2000 to ever sell on Bring a Trailer. The beloved Honda convertible, which eclipsed its previous price record of $44,500, was purchased on Tuesday by famous American IndyCar racing driver Graham Rahal.

Ford has decided not to bring the Raptor variant of the new Ranger pickup to the United States. Hermann Salenbauch, who is the new vehicle line director for Ford Performance, spoke to journalists about Ford Performance today in Las Vegas. Among the topics that came up was the Ford Ranger Raptor, and he had bad news for American fans of the off road Ranger: despite America’s love of Raptor pickups, Ford has no plans to bring it to the United States.

Ford is recalling nearly 1.5 million Focus compact cars in North America because a fuel system problem can cause the engines to stall without warning. The recall covers cars from the 2012 through 2018 model years with 2-liter four-cylinder engines. Ford says a valve in the fuel system can stick in the open position, causing too much vacuum, and an engine control computer may not detect the problem. Excessive vacuum can cause the gas tank to deform, as well as other problems.

I’m not sure if you saw this story this morning, but modern cars are absolutely outrageously expensive to fix after even a minor collision. Some of this has to do with all the cameras and sensors and robotic feely-bits crammed into the extremities of cars, but a big part of the blame needs to fall on the fact that modern automotive design has effectively eliminated the bumper. And that’s idiotic.

Cars and traffic signals are talking to each other, leaving the driver — if there even is one — out. Top automakers including Volkswagen, Honda (HMC), Ford (F) and BMW (BMWYY) are experimenting with technology that allows cars and traffic lights to communicate and work together to ease congestion, cut emissions and increase safety.

We know that most people can’t imagine life without cars, but we also know that time for cars has passed if we want to save the planet for future generations. The stopdrivingcar.club site is intended as a publication that should enable people from all countries in the world to facilitate their transport.

Today, the EU held a routine vote on regulations for self-driving cars, when something decidedly out of the ordinary happened... The autonomous vehicle rules contained a clause that affirmed that "data generated by autonomous transport are automatically generated and are by nature not creative, thus making copyright protection or the right on databases inapplicable." This is pretty inoffensive stuff. Copyright protects creative work, not factual data, and the telemetry generated by your car -- self-driving or not -- is not copyrighted.

In Pontevedra, the usual soundtrack of a Spanish city has been replaced by the tweeting of birds and the chatter of humans

Toyota has announced a safety recall of some 807,000 Prius and Prius V cars in the U.S., saying that the company needs to fix a problem that could cause the vehicles to lose power and stall "in rare situations." The recall covers Prius vehicles from the 2010-2014 model years and Prius V cars from the 2012-2014 model years.

Ford will be making cuts to its 70,000-strong white-collar workforce in a move it calls a "redesign" of its staff to be leaner, have fewer layers, and offer more decision-making power to employees, the company announced. The number of jobs that will be axed is unknown at this point. “A lot of the (reorganization) is about making different choices about strategy,” Chief Financial Officer Bob Shanks told NBC News, adding that the goal isn’t just to slash spending but to improve the “fitness” of the company.

Something to do at the weekend...

If you’ve long been a fan of the wider rear ends of the all-wheel drive and GTS Porsche 911s, you’re in luck when the all-new 992 generation drops next year. According to a report from Car and Driver, Porsche’s going to keep things simple on the next 911 by making them all widebody.

This 1988 Ford Mustang LX began life as a Special Service Package coupe that was reportedly used by the California Highway Patrol from 1988 until 1994. Extensive modifications have been added by the seller, Matt Farah of The Smoking Tire, since his acquisition in 2014. Wide-body fenders were installed along with a Saleen lower front air dam, and a repaint was also performed in the current shade of black.

Ashish Kulkarni, 36, still remembers. In 2006, newly-married and in his first job, he bought his first car — a Hyundai Santro. It was a step-up. “We both love driving. We were excited,” he says, referring to his wife Swathi. The Santro made their daily commute comfortable in Bengaluru. In 2018, some things have changed and some remain the same. He is older and richer, father of two children and remains passionate about driving.
