Go-anywhere Grand Cherokee is Stylish but Thirsty

March 13th, 2012 by Mark Savage

For serious off-roaders who also demand luxury for their daily drives, the Jeep Grand Cherokee remains a stylish, comfortable choice. Take the Grand Cherokee Limited model, for example. Standard with a 290-horsepower Pentastar V6, the silver test model included a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 with variable valve timing and Fuel Saver Technology. The additional power is there, as the Hemi delivers up 390 lbs.-ft. of torque so this sleek Jeep will …

Range Rover offers unstoppable luxury

November 28th, 2011 by Mark Savage

2011 Land Rover Range Rover Review: Like the Jeep in America, England’s Land Rover is the original real deal when it comes to off-road vehicles in the U.K. After years of testing them off road I can say with assurance that they can handle most any volume or viscosity of mud and muck and keep on roving. One of Rover’s latest, the 2011 Range Rover Sport HSE, is equally dashing …

Jeep Wrangler is rough but ready

November 28th, 2011 by Mark Savage

2011 Jeep Wrangler Review: Jeep’s Wrangler is the epitome of an off-road vehicle, a direct descendant of the Willys that went off to war with so many of our fathers and grandfathers in World War II. Today’s Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 4X4 is a far cry from that original 1941 buckboard, but it’ll still go way off road to conquer whatever mud, muck and man-made hazards stand between driver and destination. …

2011 Suzuki Equator Pickup Review

November 8th, 2011 by Lisa Bowman

When you think of pickup trucks, you probably don’t think of Suzuki. Suzuki has been selling cars in United States under its own name since the 1980s, it’s never offered a real pickup for the U.S. market. But that all changed with the Suzuki Equator. The Equator isn’t exactly Suzuki’s own creation, it’s essentially a clone of Nissan’s midsize Frontier pickup. Equator’s differences related to exterior styling and features. The …

2012 Range Rover Evoque

October 25th, 2011 by Frank Aukofer

2012 Range Rover Evoque Review: Like a slow-motion volcanic eruption, a new automotive era is materializing, one that overwhelms the time-honored American affectation of “bigger is better.” In a world increasingly sensitive to jammed highways and finite natural resources, smaller vehicles are poised to proliferate. Moreover, they are arriving across the motorized spectrum, from smaller, entry-level cars and crossover utility vehicles to nearly as diminutive, but expensive, luxury and near-luxury …

EcoBoost 4s power 2012 Edge, Explorer

September 16th, 2011 by John Gilbert

DETROIT, MI. — Who could have foreseen that the new and elongated Ford Explorer, and the smaller but roomy crossover Edge, could both be fitted with 4-cylinder engines and outperform larger V6 or V8 engines for power as well as at the gas pumps? Ford Motor Company has unveiled its 2.0-liter 4-cylinder EcoBoost engines for 2012 in both the Explorer and Edge, and driving them shows why Ford is gambling …

2012 Wrangler Works On- AND Off-Road

September 2nd, 2011 by John Gilbert

The fine hand of Fiat is evident on all the new Chrysler Brand vehicles in a transformation that has been both subtle and startling. The styling flair includes the interiors on everything from minivans to sedans and to sporty cars, and for 2012, Fiat’s fine hand is reaching down for arguably its greatest achievement — lifting the rugged Jeep Wrangler from the rock-climbing demon it’s been since World War II …

2012 Jeep Wrangler

September 1st, 2011 by Frank Aukofer

Jeep is seeking new horizons for its most famous vehicle. Celebrating its 70th birthday this year, the Jeep Wrangler started its extraordinary run in 1941, as a military general-purpose (GP) vehicle in the early days of World War II. It was built by different companies over the years, including Willys-Overland, Ford and American Motors. Now it forms the bedrock for troubled Chrysler, which is on the mend after being taken …
