Dec 1st, 2014 |
|
Check out this boxy little flivver. It’s the Honda N/, which you’re meant to pronounce “N-Box Slash.” It’s an efficient little runabout that packs 10 pounds of retro style in a five-pound bag. And it’s never, ever coming to the U.S. market. Sorry. The N-Box Slash is the fifth model in Honda’s N-Series of kei […]

Dec 1st, 2014 |
|
Fanboy types are always clamoring for somebody to build a Subaru that Subaru doesn’t build. And we get it. Fuji Heavy Industries is not known for its styling prowess or for its finely crafted interiors.

| Mitsubishi Confirms No Lancer Evo Replacement Planned—But the Model Will Go Out In Style |
Dec 1st, 2014 |
|
The turbocharged, all-wheel-drive Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution may not have much life left in it, but at least it is getting a nice send-off. At least, that’s the conclusion we reached after Don Swearingen, Executive Vice President for sales at Mitsubishi in North America, answered several inquiries from Jalopnik readers with tasty nuggets of future-product information.

| Dodge Announces 2015 Viper Pricing: Cash Money on the (Very Long) Hood |
Dec 1st, 2014 |
|
Being the Dodge Viper has gotta be a bit like life as a fading actor. Younger, hungrier (though less thirsty) whippersnappers are willing to do the same work for less. You cut your asking rate, but the young ones keep coming. Witness the monstrous Corvette Z06, which just posted the highest lateral grip number and […]

| Lexus RC F May Go Racing in Australian V8 Supercars |

The choice seems rather obvious to Senators John Thune (R-SD) and Bill Nelson (D-FL), who recently co-authored a bill that […]
