Jaguar F-type Coupe

At last, the hottest concept car of 2011, the Jaguar C-X16, morphs into a most wanted car of 2014: the Jaguar F-type coupe. It’s available in supercharged V6 form, with either 335bhp or 375bhp, but the version you’re looking at (and that we can’t wait to get behind the wheel of) is the most serious driver’s car Jaguar has ever made.

As in the roadster, the interior offers some design theater with its red start button and motorized center vents that rise slowly out of the dash like Excalibur from the lake.

A toggle switch activates dynamic mode, enlivening throttle response, firming up the dampers, speeding up shifts from the eight-speed auto, and making the heavy steering even heavier. We preferred the lighter steering program, but only the R allows you to customize the chassis settings in dynamic mode.

Alfa Romeo Giulia

The Alfa Romeo Giulia (105 series) is a sports saloon which was produced by Italian car manufacturer Alfa Romeo from 1962 to 1978. Alfa Romeo was one of the first manufacturers to put a powerful engine in a light-weight car for mainstream production. The Giulia weighed about 1,000 kilograms (2,205 lb). The car was equipped with a light alloy twin overhead camshaft four-cylinder engine, similar to that of the earlier Giulietta models range.

The Dart hasn't been selling in the numbers Chrysler had hoped. It's partly a matter with its presentation; the Dart feels like more of a niche model, competing against strong full-line models like the Ford Focus, Hyundai Elantra, and Chevy Cruze. One hidden Dart asset: In interior volume, it's almost a mid-size car, and feels like it.

Hyundai Veloster 2015

With a “stealth” third door, 35 miles per gallon on the highway, and affordable turbo options, there is plenty to like about the 2015 Hyundai Veloster. Its five-star safety rating is one more notch on its dashboard.

Hyundai partnered with the Rhys Millen Red Bull Rallycross team in the 2011 U.S.A Rallycross Championship. During the six planned races in 2011, the on-site activity focused on the performance-tuned production vehicles, Genesis Coupe and Veloster, and local brand managers gave attendees tours of the cars and collected attendee data via surveys on buyer interest and brand consideration. Large screens played race footage and rallycross highlights. In the pit area, which was open to all ticket holders, consumers could sit in the vehicles, pick up free merchandise and meet the drivers. The attendee area of the pit was housed in a 53-foot Featherlite spread-axle trailer that the race team operated on one side, while an on-site Hyundai activity area functioned on the other

Honda Civic Sedan 2015

While Honda’s two-door compact did not make the cut, the 2015 Civic sedan brought home an overall five-star safety rating for the automaker. Breaking down each test, the Civic sedan scored four of five stars in the front crash test, a perfect five stars in the side crash test, and four of five stars in the rollover test. Prior to these scores for the 2015 model year, the 2014 Civic received a Top Safety Pick award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).
