Dodge Challenger: Fast, good-looking, drivable

With its simple styling, the 2010 Challenger is an excellent take on a classic Dodge muscle car. But more impressive here is the update to the driving tech. Boasting 425 horsepower in SRT trim, the Challenger is surprisingly drivable. It does equally well crawling through a parking lot or blasting down a country road. Far less back-breaking than other modern muscle cars, it exhibits European refinement in ride quality.
Tech-wise, it looks a little rough, but it is feature rich. We didn't like using the graphical interface for the navigation system, but voice command worked very well. iPod and phone integration also did their jobs.

Mitsubishi to unveil 2011 i-Miev at LA auto show


Mitsubishi announced on Twitter the U.S. version of its 2011 Mitsubishi i-MiEV will be unveiled at the 2010 Los Angeles auto show next month.
Could a wider version of the i-MiEV mean the four-seater will become a 5-seater?
