When we first filmed the Kia we thought attempting a review through “interpretive dance” was a good idea. In retrospect, we were probably wrong. The Soul + we tested had the 2.0-liter motor and is estimated to get 24/29mpg, prices start at $14,000, as tested about $23,000.

It’s less expensive than its Audi brethren, and yet it uses the same 2.0-liter turbocharged clean diesel engine as the A3.  Right now the Germans are the only folks selling diesels in passenger cars, but you can bet that everyone is about to [...]

This Flex-based wagon features the 350hp EcoBoost turbo motor and is designed for someone named "Susan." Is it any good?

We bought my wife a MINI Cooper back in 2004 and it’s been an automotive love affair ever since. After a year of competing for the driver’s seat, I bought my own MINI Cooper S in 2005. We’re a MINI family and I’ve never had a car [...]
