AAA flags June 10 as one of the deadliest days for teen drivers

AAA is flagging June 10 as one of the 10 deadliest days for teenagers to be on the road. Recent crash data show that six of these 10 days fall between Memorial Day and Labor Day--and five are in July. The number of teens involved in deadly traffic crashes peaks during the summer-vacation months of June, July and August.

Lexus plans small crossover

Lexus plans to show a production-ready compact SUV to rival the Audi Q3 and BMW X1 at the 2014 Geneva motor show, a company source said. The hybrid model, which will be based on the redesigned Toyota RAV4, will slot below the Lexus RX 450h. It was unclear if or when the vehicle would come to North America.

Mitsubishi Lancer

The 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer will be unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show. With styling already hinted at by the Concept-X and Concept Sportback of 2005, the illustration released by Mitsubishi remains largely faithful to these showcars. The trim of the Down-Road-Graphic modified only slightly; this now gives the front a six element graphic, and chrome is also used.
