motortrend.com
Since youve opted for the analog
version of Motor Trend, you
might not be a regular visitor to
motortrend.com. If you havent
been in a while, please grab your favorite
Web-enabled device and take us for a spin.
You should notice immediately that the site
looks very different thanks to a top-down
overhaul of its design and functionality.
The sheet meter, pixels are totally new
and sculpted with familiar cues lifted from
these pages. We updated the font package
(to include Oswald and Open Sans, if youre
a design head) for a more contemporary
look and better legibility. And because we
know a huge reason people
come to motortrend.com is for
our award-winning pictures, we
made our photos bigger, better,
and quicker to load with a clever
new gallery format.
Same goes for all the slick
video were famous for; we redesigned where and how you view
videos on the site with the help of the same
company that supports our new on-demand
video channel (motortrendondemand.com).
Speed was another target for improvement,
so we made significant upgrades under the
hood, as well. We jettisoned the proprietary
software that was the foundation of motortrend.com from the beginning and brought
on the open-source horsepower and flexibility
of the WordPress platform. We even switched
to a new server company, one better suited to
handle the speed and growth we are after.
Its not just speed were targeting but efficiency, too, so we took a long, hard look at how
visitors use the site and then redesigned the
entire experience to decrease load times and
redundant clicks. Our homepage features new
dynamic, modular templates that prioritize
what you need to know right now. During
a major auto show, the homepage switches
to a multiwindow format best suited for the
constant flow of new car debuts. For a signature
feature such as our Best Drivers Car competition, we have a special in-your-face layout that
spreads the action across your screen.
And thats no matter what device you choose,
as weve optimized our new site for mobile. The
new motortrend.com is fast, flexible,
and dynamic; no matter how you
browse. Be it from your Dell desktop,
Samsung Galaxy tablet, or iPhone 6,
the experience will be the best it
possibly can be.
If youre shopping for a new ride,
youll find our car-buying tools have
also been vastly improved. Weve
cut away underperforming pages, condensed
the good stuff, and added more than 130 new
vehicle write-ups in a format that keeps the
most current and useful information at the top
of the page. We also streamlined the navigation. Wherever you are on the site, should the
mood to shop strike you, our new marketplace
is only a click away.
Same goes for the latest fuel economy
information. Our industry-exclusive Real MPG
calculator now has its own tab in our main
navigation bar. It gives you direct access to realworld fuel economy data on hundreds of cars,
trucks, and SUVs.
Whew, sounds purty slick, right? But
perhaps youre a bit suspicious, because unlike
all the new cars, trucks, and SUVs we review
in these pages, we definitely have a proud and
vested interest in our website. Well, dont just
take my word for itplease check out
motortrend.com, kick the tires, and take it for a
spin. I know youre going love it. n

Hyundai Relaunches Genesis
as Independent Brand
Hyundai Motor
Company has
announced it is
turning its Genesis
line into a standalone global
luxury brand.
The company is targeting
new luxury, echo-boomer
customers with six new
Genesis vehicles globally by
2020. Hyundai spokespeople
confirmed all six vehicles will be
available in the U.S. by 2021.
Hyundai is aiming at traditional European luxury brands
with Genesis and plans to build
all of its vehicles on rear-wheeldrive platforms. The latter is
a distinct departure from the
approach taken by current
Japanese and U.S. luxury brands.
The Genesis brand will also have
its own unique design language,
a distinct winged emblem based
on the current Genesis logo, and
a separate naming convention to
differentiate it from Hyundai.
the frontal oblique crash, which involves a car hitting another object at an
angle. Like the small overlap crash, the frontal oblique crash is dangerous
because the energy isnt distributed evenly through a cars front crash
structure, increasing the risk of deformation in the cabin.
NHTSA also wants to improve its full frontal barrier crash test to better
consider rear seat occupants. To collect more accurate data, NHTSA
wants better dummies. The updated dummies include the Test device for
Human Occupant Restraint (THOR), which delivers
more data on restraint systems, and WorldSID, a
dummy specifically developed for side impact tests.
NHTSAs 5-Star Safety Ratings have set the bar
on safety since it began in 1978, and today we
are raising that bar, U.S. Transportation Secretary
Anthony Foxx said in a release. The changes provide
more and better information to new-vehicle shoppers
that will help accelerate the technology innovations that saves lives.
In addition to the changes, the Department of Transportation also
wants NHTSA to have the ability to update its testing procedures more
quickly to keep up with new safety technologies. Under the new system,
half-stars would be issued for the first time to more precisely portray
vehicle safety performance.
The new system is expected to be in place by model year 2019. You
can view the full proposal at safercar.gov. Alex Nishimoto

Although the Mercedes-AMG
GT S was recently named
our Best Drivers Car, the
team from Affalterbach
isnt resting on its laurels.
A hotter version, called the
AMG GT R, is in the works,
and its expected to be even
more potent than the S. Its
unknown whether Nissan
will raise a stink about AMG
using those three letters, but
the AMG GT R will be the next
high-performance variant
of Mercedes new sports
car. Aside from gobs more
power, massive rear tires,
four-wheel steering, and
active aerodynamics, look for
the first-ever electronically
adjustable Multimatic DSSV
shocks. What it wont have:
electric motors. We expect
it to arrive toward the end of
2016Been hearing whispers
of a supercharged Viper?
Theyre true, but its not the
car you think it is. Prepare
yourself for the Viper ADR,
Dodges answer to the COPO
Camaro and Ford Mustang
CobraJet. ADR stands for
American Drag Racing, and
unlike the other two, itll be
street legal. Not only that, but
itll also be a 9-second car.
Our sources say itll pump
out a Hellcat-shaming 900
hp and 800 lb-ft. Putting
the power down will be
the first-ever automatic
transmission in a Viper, a
heavy-duty unit designed
purely for drag racingOn
a less track-focused note,
the new Bentley Bentayga
will eventually get a V-6
model after the twin-turbo
V-8 and hybrid models hit
the market. It will likely use
the Audi S4s 350-hp/369lb-ft turbo unit. A diesel was
under consideration until
parent company Volkswagen
screwed that up, but it could
still turn up in Europe. Also
on the docket: a fastback
coupe model to cash in on
the popularity of the BMW
X6 and Mercedes-Benz GLE
Coupe. May the car gods
forgive them all.

Enjoyed your Head 2 Head article in the
December 2015 issue (You Again). Looking
at the picture on page 42, it looks like the
driver in the Ford Mustang weighs about 150
pounds more than the Chevrolet Camaro
driver. If you would have switched drivers,
there would have only been about a 2-pound
difference in the weight. Wouldnt this
have made a difference in the performance

April 2012
Koji Sato, chief engineer
of the LC project, looked at
the prototype cobbled from
a GS sedan and smiled. He
had just put it through its
paces at Toyotas HigashiFuji Technical Center
proving grounds and knew his team was
onto something special. Eight months prior,
he had been at Pebble Beach for the launch
of the fourth-generation GS, a car for which
he also served as chief engineer. But rather
than celebrate the GS debut, his mind had
become overwhelmed with the spontaneous
and monumental directive his boss had just
handed him. And little did Sato know at the
time, but the LCs platform would serve as the
basis for Lexus next generation of premium
rear-wheel-drive products.
The Frankenstein GS had had its body
cut and sewnfront tires pushed forward,
engine lowered and moved aft of the front
axle for a front-mid layout, battery relocated
to the trunk for improved weight distribution, driver hip point shifted down and
rearward for better feel and a lower center of
gravitybut the powertrain specs and chassis
tuning were left intact. Sato-sans objective
was to discern whether the fundamentals
of the aptly named Inertia Spec platform
were alive and kicking or dead on arrival. I

the reworked headlights with three supersmall LED units, the revised cabin-to-wheel
ratio, and the massaged surfacing and spindle
grille. The feature hes most proud of? The

extensive collaboration with engineering to
ensure functional rear brake cooling and an
uncompromised structure.
December 2014
On game day, the Rose Bowl can house more
than 95,000 people, its 20,000-plus parking
spots packed as if cars were sardines. On
this winter day, though, the stadium is silent
and the parking spots empty, save for an
autocross of orange cones and a camouflaged
LC prototype wearing chopped LS bodywork.
Our resident pro racer, Randy Pobst, is here,
eager to shake down the mule and give Sato
invaluable feedback.
CORKSCREWED Randy Pobst rings out the stage-three LC prototype at Mazda Raceway.
August 2015
Right about three years after that momentous trip to Pebble Beach, Sato is back on
the Monterey Peninsula, though on this
visit the corkscrew hes about to sample has
nothing to do with wine. The stage-three LC
prototype sits in pit lane at Mazda Raceway
Laguna Seca, doors swung open, a team of
engineers doing their best impersonation of
an ALMS pit crew, jumping in and out of the
seats, scampering hastily around the car, and
holding laptops and test gear. Sato assures
Pobst and me that the mules upper body
resembles that of the forthcoming production car, but the swirling black-and-white
of torque at 4,800 rpm. It fires up with trackfitting authority thanks to a pair of exhaust
sound control valves that open momentarily
for full auditory effect. Theres even a sound
generator in the engine bay to amplify the
engines natural tune under acceleration,
achieving a spectral map that approaches
that of the V-10 LFA supercar but with more
NASCAR rumble, less F1 wail.
After four laps, Pobst returns to pit lane.
Hes smiling but shaking his head. Cars
really good, he says, but is there any way
to turn off the stability control? Sato checks
Lexus estimates a sub-4.5-second 0-60 blast for the LC. That seems conservative.
with his team and seems a bit dismayed when
he has to report that for now VSC cannot be
switched off. Otherwise, Pobst walks away
full of praise. Steering effort and feel are very
goodEuropean with some weight but not
too much, he says. The cars front is strong
with excellent steering response and very
little understeer at the limit. Turn-in generates a small amount of yaw then the car takes
a well-balanced set mid-corner. The ride over
the minor bumps of the curbs was very good
with no vibration, implying a strong body
structure. As a racer, Pobst never forgets the
brakes. Brake feel is excellent. Firm pedal,
strong bite, smooth ABS. Stable with no
noticeable dive.
Sato appears pleased with Pobsts
comments, which jibe with the precise,
sharp, and natural signatures hes aiming
to instill in the production car. He leads us
through a walk-around of the prototype,
pointing out the features hes most proud of.
The hood, he says, is lower than the 650is,
a testament to chassis engineer Hiroyuki
Masumo, who spent six months perfecting
the geometry of the multilink suspension
so it could nestle under the steeply raked
aluminum yet still deliver accurate, sporty
handling. Sato taps the front fenders and
doors, noting that both are aluminum, too, as
are the front bumper and suspension towers.
We adopted many lightweight items, he
says, also calling out that the inner doors and
roof are carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic and
the trunklid is resin with a sheet-moldedcomposite inner. Finally, he gestures to

The Next LS
At last Octobers Tokyo Motor Show, Lexus
showed the LF-FC concept, a strong indication
of the style and size of the next-generation LS
flagship. When it makes its debut sometime
around fall 2017, the LS will be the second
vehicle to use Lexus new Inertia Spec platform.
Measuring 208.7 inches long, 78.7 inches
wide, and 55.6 inches tall, the LF-FC concept is
longer (+2.2 inches) and wider (+3.9) than the
Mercedes-Benz S550 but noticeably shorter
(-3.1), suggesting the Inertia Specs lower hip
point allowed Lexus to drop the roofline without
sacrificing headroom. Lexus didnt release
the FCs wheelbase, but it will likely grow from
that of the current long-wheelbase LS (121.7
inches) to a span closer to the S550s 124.6, to
ensure back-seat room is on par with that of the
benchmark Benz.

RIDING BAREBACK
TAKING THE ALL-WHEEL-DRIVE SADDLE OFF THE HURACN MAKES IT BETTER
You have to love a press conference that avoids unverifiable
claims of 300 percent more
torsional rigidity and meaningless promises of added dynamism. Instead,
the 2016 Lamborghini Huracn LP 580-2s
trackside presentation contained at least a
dozen references to power oversteer. Auto
enthusiasts know this doesnt describe the
superior position a cattle rancher exercises
over male livestock. Rather, its what happens
when a properly improper amount of power
is sent to the tires of a rear-wheel-drive car
while driving around a bend. Old-timers
call it loose, kids call it drifting, and we
call it brilliantnothing is as rewarding as
balancing a car on the edge with the throttle.
Fundamentally, Lamborghini removed
the front-driven axle from its mid-engine,
all-wheel-drive LP 610-4, shaving 73 pounds
from the LP 580-2s new nose, which in turn
results in a not-insignificant 2 percent shift

CROSSROAD
OF CONTEMPT
Of course Id see it in the left
lane. It was in the carpool lane
on Interstate 405 near Toyotas
soon-to-be-ex headquarters in
Torrance, California, to boot. I was crawling
along in a 2016 Toyota Prius of lineuptopping Four Touring flavor when a flash of
levity entered the frame: a sticker on another
cars rear glass.
Cool Prius!Nobody, it read in all its
pithy glory. The car the sticker was plastered
on? A Prius Plug-In.
If self-deprecation comes standard with
all new Priuses, it doesnt seem to translate
to the realm of public perception. Hybrid
vehicles continue to make up a sliver of the
market, but the Prius might as well be the
hybrid. Everyone knows it. Its a taxi fleet
favorite. A Google driverless technology
platform. A poster child for left-lane squatters. Weve certainly respected the Prius fuel
economy and technical advancements for

FIRST TEST
more than 15 years (2001 was the first U.S.
model), and these virtues vaulted the secondgeneration car to a 2004 Car of the Year win.
However, aside from miles-per-gallon tales
and cents-per-mile costs, the Prius traditionally has given us little to get excited about.
Whats that saying about familiarity and
contempt? The power-split planetary gearset
is neat, but its hard to make a case that all
aspects of the driving experience are cool.
Luckily for us, Toyota wanted to make the
new fourth-gen much cooler all around.
Associate editor Christian Seabaugh
attended the 2016 Prius press launch at one
of the cars new natural environments: an
autocross course. Prius autocross? Really?
Seabaugh said. My skepticism was further
enhanced by a quick refresher lap of the
course in a 2015 Prius. It was everything I
remembered: slow, heavy steering, poor body
control, bad brake pedal feel. Not fun.
Not cool.
And this press event was put on by Toyota.
But what did Seabaugh think of the 2016 car?
Theres a night and day difference dynamically between the new car and the last one,
he said. The new chassis feels so much livelier than the old cars. It can take the power
what little there isand really put it down
well. Steering is relatively precise, brake pedal
feel is very good for a hybrid, and while flatout acceleration will never be described as
fast, its certainly good enough. Dare I say it?
The new Prius really borders on fun.
Those familiar with three generations of
Priuses might be feeling a pang of the vapors.
Testing director Kim Reynolds noticed the
same decisive change after putting down a

Lets start with its looks. Unlike the firstgeneration Q7, the all-new 2017 version
doesnt resemble the stunning 2003 Pikes
Peak quattro concept. Sure, the previous
car looked like a baked potato from certain
angles, but what a sexy spud. The new
kiddie-hauler, built on Volkswagen Groups
MLB Evo platform, features plenty of the
jaw-dropping metal-bending skill weve
come to expect from the VW Group since
the seventh-gen Golf debuted. When you

real estate. As has long been the case, Audis
open-pore woodwork is the envy of most.
Speaking of valuable real estate: Why are
we even doing this? my friends 9-year-old
son said to me as I peered into the third row
and noticed his knees were touching the
back of the seat in front of him. His 7-year-old
sister seemed to fit pretty much OK. I decided
to toss some kids in the way back because
Id earlier tried to shoehorn in my 5-foot-11inch self and literally could not fit. (I know
what literally means.) The Q7s middle row is
cleverly split 35/30/35, and the two end chairs
tumble forward to allow relatively easy access
to that third row. But once I was sitting in
the third row, I simply could not flip the seat

2016 by MacNeil IP LLC
Im at Autodromo Vallelunga,
a little north of Rome, about to
thrash on the World Touring
Car Championship Polestar S60,
Volvos brand-new, one-of-a-kind-so-far
return to the international stage. Having
driven the Volvo North America-supported
K-PAX Racing S60-R for years, Im wellacquainted with Polestar, the recently
acquired performance division of Volvo
Sweden. Their relationship is much like that
of Mercedes and AMG, including factory
performance parts and even special models,
happily available in the States, too.
Many racing series use ground-up race car
designs with a tacked-on silhouette body,
which is a practical solution for competition, but manufacturers often are drawn

S60. I have to pinch myself,
he said. This is so cool.
TOSSING
CAUTION
TO THE WIND
TRACK DRIVE
normally mellow turbo thrum, in spite of
running through dual catalytic converters.
Interrogating the soft-spoken and brainy
engineers and designers (the entire team is
Swedish), I learn the rules are quite strict, but
they are so far pleased with the series FIA
officials. But the car is new, having yet to run
a race, so lets see how that pans out; I know
how prickly rules can sometimes become.
The S60 is light at 2,420 pounds with driver.
The body is quite true to stock form with a
carbon roof but steel doors. The flares jut out
sharply to emphasize the original appearance.
Polestar has allowed me to crawl all over
the machine, and I see MacPherson struts on
all four corners with hlins shocks. The lower
control arms look very long to me, mounted
to a fabricated tubular-steel subframe near
the center underneath. Such a setup reduces
roll-center migration, a downside of the strut.
The upside is strength at a lower cost than
more complex arrangements, and the rules
require struts anyway, so its the same for
every team. This is a theme I heard repeated
several times. The Polestar Volvo team seems
to relish competing on a level playing field.
They allow that the rear suspension is a bit
stiffer, and I see anti-roll bars on both ends in
sophisticated low-drag bearings, both set in
their nearly full-soft positions. The differential is a clutch-type mechanical limited-slip
with ramps, la Porsche, continuing the
series philosophy of minimal electronic
controls. No traction, stability, anti-lock
braking, or diff control. Its all natural, as I like
to say. Driver dependent. Bravo, WTCC.
The tires are spec Yokohama race slicks,
and the camber settings look mild. I
remember seeing crazy rear camber in the
C30s Volvo ran in the past Swedish Touring
Car Championship, like something out of
Stance magazine, and I ask if such a setting
is in the plans. Its early, they chuckle, and it
has not been ruled out. With the same size
slicks all around and far less load in the back,
FWD needs a few unexpected tricks to work.

weights up significantly with cornering loads

of what the front wheels are doing as the

uncommonly good, as is the excellent body

Angus MacKenzie
version of the car ever since, and while it subsequently launched a model with a 4-inch wider
cockpit, the 620 Rs frame is the same as that of
the Series Three Lotus 7. Its not the same car,
though, for like Grandpas axthe one thats had
three new heads and a new handletheres not
a single part thats shared with the original.
Top dog in the Caterham Seven range, the
620 R has a supercharged, 2.0-liter Ford Duratec
four that delivers 310 hp at a screaming 7,700
rpm and 219 lb-f of torque at 7,350 rpm under its
louvered hood. Impressive, but hardly a match
for the Viper ACRs thumping 645 hp and 600
lb-f, right? Before you order up a celebratory
beer and start humming The Star-Spangled
H2H DRAG RACE Angus MacKenzie and Jason Cammisa face o on our newest show.
Cars are a product of their environment. Just park Dodges Viper ACR
alongside the Caterham 620 R.
Both are barely street-legal track
rats, road cars built to hot lap a winding road
course as fast as possible. Yet neither could
be more dierent from the other. Form follows
function? Yes. But in the case of these two,
context is everything.
With its massive 8.4-liter V-10, huge gumball
tires, and a wing that looks like it was stolen
from a small plane, the Viper ACR is the
all-American supercar from central casting,
a swaggering hulk of a thing that roars like a
hungry grizzly bear and moves like Julio Jones.
Its clearly born and bred in a country with
cheap gas and wide-open spaces.
Perfectly proportioned for pinballing down
narrow, hedge-lined English country lanes, the
Caterham is a tiny, elemental machine, with no
doors and simple body panels fastened directly
to its tubular steel frame. Its wheels are smaller
than the Vipers brake rotors, and to get in you
detach a leather-clad Momo steering wheel
thats barely a hand-span wide, step over the
body side, and snake-hip wriggle your legs
under the dash while simultaneously dropping your but into a seat thats litle more than
a couple of cushions on a carbon-ber shell.
Lewis Hamilton makes it look easy.
The Caterham appears litle changed from
the Lotus 7 sports car Colin Chapman launched
in 1957. The 7 stayed in production until 1972,
when Chapman, eager to move Lotus away from
its kit-car roots, sold the rights to the design to
Caterham Cars. Caterham has been building its
