Mercedes is cutting production of the range topping S Class to a one shift operation as sales fall ahead of the new 2013 S Class.

Mitsubishi ASX Black Special Edition launches

Mitsubishi ASX Black launches - with satin black styling upgrades It’s just over a year since we reviewed the Mitsubishi ASX, Mitsubishi’s new offering in the compact SUV / crossover market.

But it won’t be the Mulsanne that sees a production version of the hybrid powertrain but, as expected, the new Bentley SUV.
