Do you have a friend who clings to out of date fashions, no matter how hard you try to convince them that times have changed? I have a few friends like that -- actually, I might be the one who clings to things. I'm not really sure.

Infiniti SUV and Crossover Overview

Thu, 02 Feb 2012 00:05:08 +0000

The late 1980s/early1990s gave birth to three very significant automotive companies: Acura, Lexus and Infiniti. Each was created as the luxury arm of a Japanese economy car maker -- Acura is part of Honda; Lexus is part of Toyota; and Infiniti is part of Nissan. Each company would be much happier if you forgot that, and considered them on their own merits. They'd be much happier if you just thought of them as luxury car makers.

Basem Wasef, About.com's Guide to Motorcycles, was able to drag himself out from behind the wheel in order to bring us this 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG Photo Gallery.

Mercedes-Benz takes a long time to make changes. I think that's actually wise -- better to take a long time to develop new models and changes to current models than to rush into changes. But when I put together this Mercedes-Benz SUV and Crossover Overview, I realized that the G-Class or "Gelandewagen" hasn't been redesigned since 1991 -- that's 20 years, or three lifetimes in most product cycles.

There's little polarizing design in the car world right now, and for good reason. Polarizing design is risky.

I don't know if we'll ever see another generation of full-size SUVs. The ones we have now may be the last of their kind, thanks to Federal CAFE (Corporate Average Fuel Economy) standards. Thankfully, the freshest full-size luxury SUV is a very good one, and it's back for a second year.
