Volkswagen is adding a new, even smarter model to its I.D. family of all-electric concepts, with the VW I.D. VIZZION previewing its, well, vision of tomorrow's autonomous transportation. While the concept car may not be an outlandish coupe or a go-everywhere SUV, it does have what's arguably an even tougher challenge ahead of it. Persuading people that driverless vehicles can still forge an emotional connection.
Mercedes has revamped the C-Class, with the 2019 C300 packing more power, more efficiency, and more technology. The automaker's entry-level sedan keeps the 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder turbocharged engine of before, but nudges the power up to 255 horsepower, an increase of 14 HP. That's not the only change, mind.
Ferrari is preparing to bring out something very special for speed-fans, what's shaping up to be an even more potent version of the 488.

The new G-Class has spawned a performance SUV version, the 2019 Mercedes-AMG G63, and it's shaping up to be the all-wheel drive monster we were not-so-secretly hoping it would. Revealed today, after the "regular" truck made its debut at the Detroit Auto Show 2018 last month, the 2019 G63 takes the boxy off-roader and gives it a 577 horsepower upgrade.
Mercedes' most luxurious model is getting a revamp, with the 2019 Mercedes-Maybach S-Class borrowing some concept car style for the Geneva Motor Show next month. Already the German automaker's most lavish car, the Mercedes-Maybach takes the "regular" S-Class sedan and then gives it a high-end makeover so that it won't be embarrassed alongside Bentley and Rolls-Royce rivals in the parking lot.
At the Geneva Motor Show last year, Mercedes-AMG wowed everyone with its impressive GT Concept. Now, this year's show — less than a month away — will see the debut of the real thing: Mercedes' latest take on blurring the line between a performance sedan and a so-called four-door coupe.

The Stratos is back, with the legendary Italian sports car returning for a highly-limited run of new models - albeit with no sign of Lancia in sight.

The McLaren Senna may not be making its official debut until the Geneva Motor Show, but the British automaker can't help whetting our supercar appetites with some new details and photos.

Land Rover may be known for its luxury off-road SUVs, but today it's teasing a whole different thing in the shape of the new Range Rover SV Coupe.

Hyundai has revealed its latest green car concept, the FE Fuel Cell Concept, powered by hydrogen and emitting only pure water.

McLaren may only have revealed the new 720S supercar this week, but the British automaker's Special Operations team has already cooked up and even hotter version.

The idea isn't so much to say that you should be driving this exact red rocket, but to suggest what you could do if you had an even bigger budget for your next supercar.
