More than 25 years ago now there was a brutal business battle between two of Germany’s Big Three. At the conclusion of the 20th century, both BMW and Volkswagen were very eager to purchase Rolls-Royce and Bentley. The two British luxury stalwarts had been intertwined via the same owner for many decades, but that was about to change. The fight took five years to play out, saw neither company get exactly what it wanted, and changed the fortunes of both Rolls-Royce and Bentley for the better.

The Toyota Century is a unique luxury sedan manufactured by Toyota. While just about the antithesis of flashy, this understated-to-the-point-of-being-almost-invisible four-door is the pinnacle of Japanese domestic luxury.

The sporting event or concert was fun, but escaping from the crowded venue to return home, or on to another destination, can present several dilemmas—dealing with traffic if you drive yourself, catching a ride share or cab that can be costly, or relying on public transportation, if it’s available.

Henry J Kaiser conquered nearly every industry he went into, but his best efforts to take on Detroit failed.

When Cadillac introduced the freshly downsized Eldorado for the 1986 model year, the brand was riding a wave of success. When the majority of the line downsized in 1985, Cadillac experienced its best sales year ever. It was also the best year ever for the Eldorado as it was snapped up by customers before its larger traditional shape headed into the sunset. By the conclusion of 1986, the bloom fell off the sales rose: Sales dipped by over 100,000 units brand-wide, and Eldorado sales were down nearly 79 percent. Revisions to the Eldorado were needed pronto.

In the 2016 Focus RS was introduced to the U.S. Market. It was something completely new from Ford for the U.S. Market.

Electric vehicle enthusiasts have a variety of reasons as to why EVs are, in their estimation, superior to gasoline-powered vehicles.

First, there is the unquestioned environmental advantage of EVs.

Dropracks has reimagined the traditional vehicle roof rack, making it more accessible and user-friendly.

The Eldorado’s 11th generation debuted in 1986 with downsized styling in line with the rest of Cadillac’s portfolio, save the lone rear-drive Fleetwood Brougham. The smaller coupe (sans convertible version from 1986 onward) was newly very similar in looks to its platform mates the Oldsmobile Toronado and Buick Riviera. And like the other two, it implemented a new transverse engine layout. Said layout paid dividends in the interior, where Cadillac promised just as much space as the outgoing Eldorado. But boy did it look different inside.

Just a few days ago, Stellantis CEO, Carlos Tavares, unexpectedly resigned due to major problems at the parent company of Chrysler, Dodge, Ram, Jeep, and MANY more. Automotive expert Jim Hall explains the backstory of Stellantis, the multinational car conglomerate that resulted from the 2021 merger of FCA and the PSA Groupe.

All AMCs are technically “rare,” but this Concord Sundancer is on another level.

On a rainy Monday in downtown Detroit a Ford Mustang Mach-E electric vehicle pulls away from the curb and dives into the work week traffic. There’s someone sitting behind the wheel but it’s strictly hands-off.

As covered in our previous installment, Cadillac unveiled the new and very downsized Eldorado coupe for 1986. Both it and its sibling the Seville received new designs in line with the rest of Cadillac’s offerings (save Fleetwood Brougham) that were previously downsized for the second time in 1985. The lineup was down to when early 80s GM management bet the farm on projected high gasoline prices that did not come to fruition. Today we’ll take a look at what the shrinkage meant for Eldorado’s exterior styling that no longer came with length.

When will EV charging hubs start to offer the basic amenities that one comes to expect from a gas station? Sooner than you think.

The Ford Courier Pick-up. It really wasn’t a Ford at all.

Somehow the auto industry and consumers are figuring out how to deal with the double jeopardy of import tariffs and the impending end of federal tax credits for many electric vehicles, and it’s not at all how insiders thought it would all go down.

There’s absurd, there’s delusional, and then there’s post-war American optimism.

A day of classic cars, community, and summer roads.

The Michigan Automotive Relic Society (MARS) Rally 2025 brought together an eclectic mix of vintage import sports cars for a one-day adventure through the scenic backroads of Southwest Michigan. From Triumphs and MGs to BMWs, Toyotas, Lancias, and Fiats—this year's lineup had it all.

If you’ve never driven an old car, they’re very similar to modern vehicles, but also completely different in countless ways. Classics fitted with manual transmissions still have clutch pedals and H-pattern shifters – just like you’d expect – but that is where many of the similarities end.

Did you know that 46 percent of VW ID. drivers prefer four buttons? Are you tired of fumbling with the VW ID.4’s two-window switch and that finicky rear button?

We rejoin our Eldorado coverage today at a turning point for Cadillac’s lineup. The brand’s first downsizing effort in 1977 worked wonders for sales and proved to be exactly what consumers wanted: A slightly smaller yet still grandiose vehicle with a large V8. The second downsizing effort embarked upon in 1985 would be looked upon much less fondly after the fact. But is that hindsight feeling reflected in the sales figures? 

In this episode of The Urban EV Podcast, host Rob Hoffman sits down with Ben Prochazka, Executive Director of the Electrification Coalition, for a wide-ranging conversation on the future of electric mobility. Ben shares what’s really driving the EV transition, from federal policy to local action, and why getting the right funding and incentives in place is so critical.

There is arguably no OEM that has made more changes to how interiors are executed than Tesla.

Presumably part of it is based on the fact that as a comparatively young vehicle manufacturer (Telsa was founded in 2003; General Motors 1908; Mercedes-Benz 1926), its engineers and designers looked at interiors with comparatively fresh eyes.

The tenth generation Cadillac Eldorado was launched to great fanfare in 1979 and saw its sales figures fly higher than ever. Also buoyed was the Cadillac brand as a whole, which downsized its lineup at the right time and brought forth its first midsize - Seville - to great effect. As a result the brand managed its all-time sales record in 1979 of 381,113 cars. 

Never to be matched again, 1980 was a turning point in Cadillac’s fortunes. The economy, inflation, and a poor job market caused a downward slide for GM’s most prestigious marque. That year sales declined by 55.8 percent, to 213,002 in total. Not to worry though, Cadillac had prepared a new type of engine to hit the competition where it hurt the most. The V8-6-4!
