Unveiled in concept form at the 2011 North American International Auto Show in Detroit alongside the production Prius v and in production form in North America at the 2012 Detroit show, the Prius c (the c standing for city) represents the first Prius model based on Toyota's Yaris platform.

Not only is the new Fusion hands-down the best-looking vehicle in its class, it's also, in my opinion, the best-handling of the current group of affordable midsize sedans.

Back in the spring of 2011, the Honda Fit was one of the first vehicles I had the opportunity to evaluate here at LotPro.com. So with a new model (as well as a new assembly location in Mexico) on the horizon, I thought I'd take one last look at the second generation version.

A week spent test driving the surprising subcompact from Toyota

Fast forward to 2012 and we now have the all-new 2013 Acura RDX.

there is much to like and a couple of things that I didn't particularly care for when it comes to the hatchback GT version.

Here at LotPro opportunities to get behind the wheel of an all-new Cadillac are few and far between, so when the situation presents itself we generally take advantage. Such was the case at last month's Midwest Automotive Media Association fall rally held in suburban Chicago.

Honda took the extraordinary step of announcing, less than six months into production, that it would be revising the 2013 model. Earlier today, the Japanese manufacturer released the first images of the vehicle that will be revealed later this month at the 2012 LA Auto Show and will go on sale nearly simultaneously (a matter of hours) at Honda new car dealers on November 29th.

This time around, we got the chance to drive something at the opposite end of the spectrum - a top-shelf SE AWC with all the bells and whistles that bottom-lined at over $9,000 more than the ES.

I have a sneaking suspicion that many of the folks there probably feel like Michael Corleone - Just when I thought I was out they pull me back in. Fortunately for Acura, this is a good thing. A case in point is the brand's offerings at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show.
