The Jaguar is considered an endangered specie due to a small population and the continued poaching of them for their hide.  Another Jaguar that is equally rare is the Jaguar XJ L.  One look at the 2011 XJ L and you you’ll likely want to poach one of these from a Jaguar dealer and enjoy the aroma of the leather hides used in the seats, the sound of the V8 exhaust, and the exterior design that is fresh and doesn’t resemble anything of the past thirty years or something from Bavaria. 

I have a confession to make.  I was cautiously optimistic with the idea of the A7 when I first heard that Audi had green lighted the program.  Yes, I am fond of hatchbacks but one image was burned into my brain: Accord Crosstour.  The Crosstour was a great idea on paper and a gave people who worship at the church of hatchback another option.  Sadly, the final product hasn’t been much of a sales success as Americans shun hatchbacks.  I won’t mention the fact that many crossovers today are actually hatchbacks but calling them that would be a marketing faux pas.  The Crosstour is looking like another nail in the coffin of slow selling hatchback designs for the US market.  Could the company that brought us the R8 [...]

Volkswagen is excited with the work they have completed thus far on the Golf blue-e-motion battery electric vehicle.  So excited, in fact, that I was recently able to drive one in Germany.

Delving in to AutoPacific's Research Suite database we find that the buyer of the EcoBoost models are dramatically different than the buyers of the base models.

At first glance, I'm one of those people whose lifestyle is what automotive marketers would deem perfect for a crossover SUV. I love outdoors activities and often carry a surfboard in my vehicle.

That's why I'm a wagon kind of a guy. And the Cadillac CTS-V Wagon is just about the ultimate wagon.

As the owner of a 2011 Murano, I was very skeptical of the Murano CrossCabriolet and the ability to deliver on the ‘cross’ bit of the name with only two doors and four seats.  After a brief test drive in Del Mar, CA, I realized that the word crossover was being redefined right before my very eyes.

 

All over the world, every day of the year, millions people buy and read magazines. You can find tons magazines on the waiting room of your doctor or dentist and even at the restaurant.

So, why is reading magazines so important for people?

Basically, we can divide magazines according to the main topics they focus on. So, we have scientific magazines, fashion and gossip magazines and politic magazines. Don’t forget the magazines for children with drawings to paint and trick games or even small crosswords to solve.

What do people look for when buying a magazine?

This question is really interesting. Some people look for more information, other for the taste to know the latest love adventures of a certain actor or so. According to a recent research, it seems that it’s the form of the product that keeps its success on the readers.

Actually, printed magazines have a good hold on the public [...]

Our quick drive of the 2013 Toyota RAV4 EV Prototype shows lots of promise. It will undoubtedly be one of the more desirable electric vehicles when it hits the market next year.

We had an opportunity to drive the true flagship of the Audi brand and discover what truly sets the Audi A8 and A8L apart from the rest of the flagships.

Juke certainly looks like no other crossover or SUV product out there. It sits fairly close to the ground and at first glance looks more like an expressively styled small hatchback.
