A new, big, rear-drive Alfa Romeo sedan is set to spearhead a U.S. comeback for the Italian brand--and it'll do it on the coattails of the 2011 Chrysler 300.

Motor Authority reports that the plans for Chrysler and Fiat's new attack on the U.S. market will be topped by a new rear-drive sedan for Alfa Romeo that's going global. The new Alfa--possibly dubbed the Milano, though the name applies to a smaller car across the Atlantic--will get a quick development cycle and could appear as early

General Motors has a clear path out of bankruptcy, thanks to a Federal court's ruling this morning that the formation of a "New GM" can take place.

What lies ahead for one of the four brands that's on the winning side of GM's Chapter 11 filing? For Cadillac, the future seems to be circling around the core product that's led its revival--the CTS.

The 2009 Cadillac CTS is among the highest-rated vehicles at TuningTruck.com, while its larger stablemate, the 2009 STS,

Four-door coupes are still a relatively new segment, especially in the mainstream large luxury arena, which the Mercedes-Benz CLS essentially has to itself for now. But Audi has a rival in the works, a sleek yet spacious four-door cruiser called the A7, and it's due in late 2010.

Recent heavy investments in the Neckarsulm plant tip Audi's intent to take the car to production. Cars are expected to start rolling off the assembly line late in 2010, according to a report by Auto Motor und

According to the newsletter AutoBeat Asia, China will also be home to a production facility for the Chevy Volt's to be sold in the Chinese market.  The newsletter goes on to state that all Volts built in China will be sold within the country with no plans for exports of Chinese made Volts.

Beginning in 2010, Volt's will run off the assembly line in Hamtramck, Michigan.  Some of the vehicles will be exported to other markets.  Initially, GM believes the assembly plant will be able to

On Thursday June 4th at its main plant in Okayama Japan, Mitsubishi Motors has become the world's first automaker to begin mass production of an electric car.

The vehicle that has begun rolling off the assembly line is the Mitsubishi iMiEV, a pure electric car with 100 miles of driving range and a top speed of 90 mph.  It is a futuristic-looking 2000 pound 4 door 4-seater which is fun to drive.

The car uses a 16 kwh lithium-ion battery pack that recharges

You might think Chrysler would be doubled over in pain these days, given all the tsoris of bankruptcy court. But in fact, the company is holding its head high and has developed big plans for tomorrow--at least on paper.

Yesterday, those plans made their way to the U.S. Department of Energy, when Chrysler handed over a $448-million proposal to develop a slate of green vehicles lickety-split. Most of the vehicles included in the plan would be electric and plug-in hybrid versions of the Chrysler

Don't count on the diesel bar closing anytime soon, economists say. A new study by market-research firm Freedonia Group forecasts diesels to tap into 3.5% annual growth through 2012, driven in part by an increased popularity of small cars and trucks. (Did ya' hear that, Detroit?)

In the near future, diesels won't rule the assembly line, but Cleveland-based Freedonia says they will gain a larger share--especially in North America--as more people clamor for alternative-fuel brews. Today's $130-billion-a-year diesel

At the end of March B5 Blue fans rejoiced as the first B5 Blue 2009 Dodge Challenger R/T Classic rolled off the assembly line at the Brampton plant.  Now they have started to arrive at dealerships with one model popping up on Ebay.  The B5 Blue Challenger on Ebay is of the R/T flavor with the 5.7-liter V-8 and it looks to come fully loaded with the 20-inch wheels, 6-speed transmission, Track Pak, UConnect Hands-Free communication and performance tires.  In my opinion this is the sharpest looking
