2010 Hyundai Tucson Limited AWD Review

Stay connected Subscribe to our RSS feed
I'm on a roll. As far as I'm concerned anyways. And no, as you can tell by what I will be writing about, I'm not high-rollin' or pimping it out in performance or luxury cars. In fact, since the beginning of 2010, with the exception of the Mercedes S400, I've been testing out vehicles exclusively with hatches. And, believe it or not, I've got tonnes more coming my way in the near future. This is proof-positive that a hatchback is a very popular option in the 21st Century. Full story...

Daimler and Renault-Nissan Alliance Product Plans
Daimler and Renault-Nissan Alliance Product Plans- Smart ForTwo and ForFour - Automobile Magazine
A potentially huge alliance struggles to get into gear.

More than twelve months ago, Mercedes-Benz and Renault-Nissan agreed on a joint program to develop the next-generation Smart. But despite several attempts, a more widespread, all-encompassing global cooperation agreement has yet to be signed. The deal, which would change the face of this industry, likely includes a swap of shares, a near-total component integration of all five brands involved, and a close cooperation in numerous vehicle segments including vans and light trucks. Rumors suggest that Renault/Nissan's Carlos Ghosn and Mercedes' Dieter Zetsche may announce further details in May.inline_mediumwraptextright28661935/features/news/1004_mercedes_smart_renault_nissan_infiniti_alliance1004_z_01+smart_forTwo+side_view.jpgTrue
