General Motors has issued a recall for 2009 and 2010 models of the Cadillac CTS. At issue is a potential flaw in the cars' rear suspension, which could result in a loss of steering control. The issue centers around a wax coating placed on the jam nuts of the rear suspension toe links, which help stabilize the rear wheels. According to a bulletin...
The 2011 GMC Yukon Denali is nearly a clone of the Cadillac Escalade, yet it largely lives in the 'Slade's shadow. All the same underpinnings are here: there's the Escalade's 403-horsepower, 6.2-liter V-8; its six-speed automatic transmission; and its full-time all-wheel drive system. Even its extra acoustic isolation measures to ensure a very...
The 2011 GMC Yukon Hybrid looks much like a standard GMC Yukon and allows about the same level of performance and comfort. Yet it can return an almost incredible 20 mpg in the city and 23 on the highway—hard to believe because that's about 50 percent better than the standard versions of the Yukon in the city, and there's still a mammoth...
The Basics: The 2011 GMC Yukon isn't selling at anywhere close to the levels it was a number of years ago, but it's premature to call its very useful, luxurious design a thing of the past. Especially in top Yukon Denali guise, the GMC Yukon makes a compelling luxury vehicle and is one of the best full-size sport-utility vehicles on the market. And...
The 2011 Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid is one of the greenest sport-utility vehicles—allowing nearly the same level of truck-based SUV goodness as the standard Tahoe, but with EPA ratings of 20 mpg city, 23 highway. The Tahoe Hybrid actually gets a larger V-8 than the standard Tahoe. Instead of the 320-horsepower, 5.3-liter V-8 and six-speed...
The 2011 Chevrolet Suburban is one of the largest and longest sport-utility vehicles on the market, along with the closely related GMC Yukon XL and Cadillac Escalade ESV. The Suburban is about 20 inches longer than the Tahoe, with most of that added length (14 inches) going to wheelbase. Overall, Suburban gets a larger third-row seat and more...
The GMC Acadia holds a vicarious position within GM, being targeted at SUV buyers but sharing a more car-like crossover platform with two other models in the automaker’s North American lineup. First launched in 2006, the Acadia proved to be a popular model for buyers interested in a full-size vehicle but not full-size fuel economy. However...
The Basics: The 2011 Chevrolet Tahoe is, in some respects, a relic—a body-on-frame sport-utility vehicle with solid truck underpinnings. But on closer look, especially in its upper trims, it's a luxury vehicle through and through. And with great chassis tuning, top-notch powertrains, good safety, and a sophisticated, 23-mpg Tahoe Hybrid...
The Basics: Tesla has delivered on its promise: The 2011 Tesla Roadster 2.5 is truly the first green alternative to more than 100 years of fast cars powered by gasoline. The Roadster’s classic two-seat shape, complete with soft top, provides what can only be called kick-ass performance without a tailpipe, emissions, or a fuel tank. The 2011...
The Basics: The 2011 Kia Rio is now one of the most aged designs in this class, and it's looking passable but bland inside and out. The Kia Rio has changed very little in appearance and retains pretty much the same styling and design that was introduced for 2006. Inside, the look sure isn't daring in any way either. It's basic but straightforward...
The Basics: Suzuki's SX4 models match up surprisingly well against budget-priced vehicles from other brands, offering strong value for the money and a pleasing, roomy package considering its very compact exterior. The 2011 Suzuki SX4 Crossover is again the lowest-priced vehicle of its type with all-wheel drive. While the Suzuki SX4 sedan might...
The Basics: The 2011 Honda Insight has a silhouette looking a lot like that of the Toyota Prius. That's no mistake; it's the shape carved to cut through the air with the least resistance. Yet the design allows hatchback practicality, and Honda manages to incorporate an impressive degree of design detail for such a low-priced vehicle. A...
