2013 Dodge Dart

 

Chrysler has finally revealed some of the most significant features of its latest car model which is the 2013 Dodge Dart. This event has placed an end to all of the rumours and speculations that are trying to describe the vehicle's appearance, overall performance, and other related characteristics. In addition to this, Chrysler's revelation has somehow encouraged more buyers to consider the 2013 version of this car as one of their top vehicle options since the Dart has a lot of exciting characteristics to offer.

The revelation also marks the return of the Dart to the automobile market a few after almost three decades since its production was stopped in 1976. As the vehicle makes it comeback into the mainstream market, Chrysler might have prepared for this. In fact, this might be the most significant reasons why the car maker has released a number of teasers prior to the revelation that the model will be returning to production.

According to Chrysler, the 2013 model of Dart will go on sale probably this summer and this would be offered with three engine options. This includes the turbocharged 1.4-liter 4-cylinder Multiair, the 2.0-liter 4-cylinder Tigershark, and the 2.4-liter 4-cylinder Tigershark.

Review The 2012 Toyota Camry XLE V6

Toyota is considered as the largest car maker in the world in terms of volume. Unfortunately, the company's global operations were shaken when the strongest earthquake that had happened in March 2011 hit Japan. Toyota's production slowed down and one of the models that were greatly affected was the Toyota Camry. Due to the limited production, Toyota was not able to meet the rising demand for the Camry. As a result, most of the buyers resorted to other car models and this has tremendously reduced the Camry's total sales in the US.

In order to regain the model's former glory, Toyota has upgraded the Camry and this has resulted to the launching of the 2012 model line-up. The line-up is composed of five trim levels with the 2012 Toyota Camry XLE V6 as the most expensive. For those who are wondering why the XLE costs more, take a closer look at the features it provides by reading the facts provided below.

2012 Kia Optima Review and Road Test

From a car company that not long ago was known for cheap, boring cars comes what many call the best looking midsize sedan. Since 2011 the Optima has come to represent the leaps forward the Korean auto makers are making. The styling is striking and the interior quality is also good. Then again at the Optima's new lofty price tag it has to be an impressive car. The styling of the car is sporty and aggressive. Kia makes good use of chrome to add some unique touches to the car. Our fully loaded SX turbo test car had special sport bumpers and wheels to improve the look even further. Apart from the cheesy grill it is difficult to find fault with anything on the outside of the Optima.

On the inside the Optima looks like you would expect any luxury car to. Nice dash, touch screen navigation, heated and cooled seats...but wait this is not a luxury car, this is a midsize sedan.

2012 Chevrolet Cruze Review and Road Test

Do you remember the Cavalier? GM hopes you don't, but we all do. If you never owned one you probably knew someone who did. The Cavalier came to represent everything that was wrong at GM; uninspired handling, anemic power train and an interior that could have only been designed by an accountant. Well those days are gone. We hope forever. Enter the Chevrolet Cruze in 2011, everything you thought you knew about a small GM car was turned upside-down. Nice looks, great interior and sporty handling what wasn't there to like? As we look back on 2011 it looks as though GM finally got it right. For 2012 the Cruze remains largely unchanged. A few notable differences are the availability of a manual transmission with the 1.4L turbo and no more tilt adjustable front seats without the power option. In its first year the Cruze has done remarkably well, lets look how it stacks up in 2012.

Chrysler 200 Is the Most Affordable Mid-Size Sedan

Chrysler has put special incentives on the 2012 200 LX. Base models are selling for $16,495 CDN plus freight fees and taxes.

I recently had the opportunity to test drive this vehicle when I rented one for the day. I used the vehicle exclusively for city driving as I headed downtown for dinner and an evening out. I had hoped for the V6 as I had previously driven a Dodge Avenger with the V6 and absolutely loved the driving experience. The vehicle that was delivered to me was equipped with the 2.4L I-4 cylinder engine matched with the 4 speed automatic transmission, the base LX package. I was expecting a much softer ride in the 200 as the suspension is not as sporty as the Avenger, and I was also expecting a lot of lag and soft pickup as the 4 cylinder 2.4l 'World' engine is only 173 HP compared to the Best-In-Class Pentastar V6 283 HP power plant.
