2009 Cadillac Escalade 4WD Hybrid - Cadillac Fullsize Luxury SUV Hybrid Review - Automobile Magazine
When it comes to its traditional strengths - power, utility, and in-your-face luxury - the Escalade is better than ever.

I'm amazed at what seems to be a considerable amount of variance between the two-mode hybrid system in this Escalade, and the one fitted to the GMC Sierra Hybrid that was also in our press car fleet. The GMC seemed quite apt to slip into EV mode, while the Caddy was all too eager to fire up its 6.0-liter V-8.

Review: 2009 Mazda MX-5 Miata
2009 Mazda MX-5 Miata - Mazda Sports Convertible Review - Automobile Magazine
Twenty years into our romance with the little Mazda, few automotive pleasures remain greater than dancing with a Miata - on the back roads, the high road, or just stuck in traffic.

The Miata turns twenty this year, and from the looks of its cartoonish face, it's never been happier. The front fascia's wide-eyed smile isn't the only smirk you'll be seeing, though, as the diminutive roadster has been tweaked to deliver even more fun behind the wheel.
