A short while back, Lexus showed off its LF-NX concept crossover. Now it’s ready to put the vehicle into its production lineup. The Lexus NX series will be the first compact crossover for the Japanese luxury automaker. 

Land Rover is showing off an amazing new “transparent bonnet” technology that allows the driver to virtually “see through” the hood of the Land Rover SUV to the ground underneath. The combination of grille-mounted cameras and a heads-up display allows the driver to see the terrain directly in front of the vehicle, which would otherwise be obscured by the hood, and even the direction of the front wheels.

During a recent media event in China, Maserati invited guests and journalists to put its shiny new Ghibli S Q4 to the test on the snow and ice. It’s only appropriate since the whole thing was done during the 2014 Harbin Ice and Snow Festival.

We’ve seen ample images and promotional videos of the BMW i8, and even managed to walk around one up close and personal on more than one occasion. But this B-roll driving footage of the car gives us a chance to see the car as it takes to the road, devoid of the glossy music and voiceovers of other footage we’ve seen.

XCAR takes us behind the scenes of David Brown Automotive and gives us a look at their first vehicle, a retro-style, Aston Martin influenced luxury sportscar. The Speedback is an elegant Gran Tourer built on the Jaguar XK platform, powered by an ample V8, and loaded with elegant interior touches, including handmade wood veneers, rich full-grain leather and real metal accents.

What jumps to mind when you see the letter Q? That creepy omnipotent bad guy on Star Trek: The Next Generation? A letter that’s hard to use in Words With Friends? Sheriff Rosco P.

What you’re looking at here is what is currently claimed to be the “world’s most expensive Tesla Model S.” While the $123,770 price tag on a fully-tricked out Model S from the factory is nothing to sneeze at, the modders at T Sportline managed to add over $82,000 to that price.

We’re already big fans of the Jaguar F-Type Roadster around here, and can’t wait until we can get our grubby little mitts on the coupe version when it’s released later this year. In the mean time, we’ll have to live vicariously through other reviewers who’ve already managed to score some time behind the wheel.

The latest variant of Porsche’s mid-engine roadster has been upgraded with a more powerful 330 horsepower engine, and an improved chassis. The new car gets a tuned-up version of its 3.4L 6-cylinder boxer engine, with an extra 15hp.

Waving AMG’s magic wand over the already impressive Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupé, the S63 AMG Coupé has now jumped to the top of the list of cars we really want to drive this year.

Built in celebration of the tenth anniversary of the production of the first Rolls-Royce Phantom, this very special Rolls has an amazing feature – a meticulously-crafted headliner that displays the night sky. But this isn’t just any random arrangement of fiber optics in the ceiling.

While much of the talk of late has focused on Lamborghini’s new Huracán, the Aventador is still a much more impressive vehicle – not just in terms of performance, but in style as far as we’re concerned.

Bentley has done a great job producing vehicles that can not only offer luxury and performance, they also can handle winter driving conditions. In this clip from The Fast Lane Car, they took the powerful Continental GT Speed Convertible into the frozen Colorado Rockies to see how it handles on a sheet of ice.

The Jaguar XFR-S is arguably one of the British car maker’s best vehicles. If you’re looking for performance and practicality in a luxury car, Jaguar has now taken wraps off of a variant of the XFR-S, packaged as a station wagon.
