The Dodge Viper went out of production nearly a year ago, but it's alleged that the company's front-engined supercar could be getting revived once again – according to a new report out of the US.
While official details are few and far between at this stage, Car and Driver says "trust us: A new Viper is happening".
Mercedes-Benz's North American arm has announced details of the updated 2019 E-Class line-up, including the addition of a new V6 model to sit below the hybrid-boosted AMG E53.
Set to go on sale in the American autumn, the new E450 and E450 4Matic variants will replace the outgoing E400 versions of the large sedan, wagon, coupe and cabriolet.
Honda will begin its assault on the global electric car market with a new Jazz-based vehicle due to launch in 2020.
According to the Nikkei Asian Review, Honda is preparing a Jazz-based EV with a range of around 300 kilometres. The new EV will go on sale in China and other markets during the first half of 2020.
Audi Australia has announced pricing and specifications for the RS4 Avant, set to touch down from $152,500 before on-road costs.
That's not cheap, but the all-wheel drive super wagon comes loaded with gear. To start with, it's powered by a 2.9-litre bi-turbo V6 engine making 331kW of power and 600Nm of torque.
That's 170Nm more than the outgoing naturally-aspirated V8, helping the car hit 100km/h in a claimed 4.1 seconds.
