2013 Cadillac XTS Review

As Cadillac’s new flagship sedan, the XTS is meant to restore the luster to the automaker’s luxury image. It replaces the discontinued DTS and STS sedans, and bears the burden of appealing to two distinct groups: […]

Volkswagen Golf 1.4 TSI

LAST MONTH, AN upmarket version of Volkswagen’s new Golf was beaten by the aggressively priced Audi A3 Sportback. We concluded that cheaper examples of the new Golf would likely prove more appealing. […]
