First there was the trucky GMC Acadia in December 2006, then the beautifully styled Buick Enclave a few months later, followed by the value-priced Saturn Outlook . GM has been rolling out full-size crossover utilities on its Lambda platform for a while now. This brings to mind thoughts about coming late to a party--unless you're bringing something really special, you run the risk of not being...

As long as I've written about cars and the auto industry (about a dozen years), GM has been on the verge of a comeback in the compact- to mid-size sedan segment. Quite a few different, highly heralded models have come out during this time, that I like to call “comeback kids” — the Oldsmobile Intrigue , Chevrolet Impala , Saturn L-Series , Pontiac G6 , and most recently, the Saturn...

Sales of new vehicles dropped seven percent in February and the pain was widespread as General Motors, Ford , Chrysler , Toyota , Nissan and BMW all reported declines in sales. Mitsubishi , Kia and Hyundai and Audi were on the losing end of sales, too--but Honda , Mercedes-Benz , Volkswagen (thanks to the Rabbit), and Mazda eked out sales gains despite the low seasonally-adjusted sales rate of...

In the past week, I've driven new vehicles with the best and worst interiors in the business. The worst one? You can guess for yourself, but think lots of black plastic, nylon carpeting that would make Cher's wardrobe point and laugh, and plastic controls that snick and snap like an overachieving box of Rice Krispies. But that car, at long last, is the huge exception. Car interiors have gotten so...

General Motors Corp.'s effort to bolster its hybrid line -- with vehicles like the new 2-Mode Chevrolet Tahoe -- has been placed in jeopardy by a legal battle at one of GM's key battery suppliers, which appears to be in serious financial trouble. GM spokeswoman Deborah Silveman declined to comment on the dispute involving Cobasys of Orion Township, Michigan, the supplier of the...

First we saw it in the south of France, then in Germany, later in the States, and now in Sweden: a prototype of the production version of Opel’s GTC Concept, which made its debut in Geneva in 2007. By adding two doors to the concept, this becomes the next generation Opel Vectra, which is now known as the Insignia. Here in the States, we’ll likely be calling this the next generation...

GM is making Trax for New York . The new 1.0-liter city-car concept is part of a trio designed in Korea for GM’s global empire. All we can say is, thank goodness it’s not a shrunken-down caricature of an American car. Not everyone can be MINI-cute. Ford says it’s bringing back the King of the Road , which reminds us of this drunken rendition that powered many games of quarters and three-man back...

What will happen to Opel’s GTC concept , after the Geneva motor show is done? Opel sources hint to TheCarConnection that a 2009 model-year production date in Europe is likely, with sales beginning in late 2008. That's for Europe, where the Opel brand is a mainstay. As for other brands, might the GTC also become a Vauxhall - or even a Saturn ? Since the GTC is based on the Opel Vectra...
