2014 Jeep Wrangler Willys Wheeler Edition flies under the radar at the LA auto show

We almost missed the 2014 Jeep Wrangler Willys Wheeler Edition on the floor of the LA auto show, where it just made its world debut. Part of it was the thick, chaotic press-day crowds.

Caterham Seven 160 launches as a back to basics Seven

Caterham Seven 160 launches as a back to basics Seven The promise of 80bhp from a tiny Suzuki 3-cylinder turbo engine may not sound the perfect recipe for a fun little sports car, but wrapped up in the ‘back to basics’ Caterham Seven 160 it very well could be. Caterham has revealed details of their new entry-level Seven – called 160 – after a tease earlier in the year, which comes with the aforementioned Suzuki 3-pot engine which is powerful enough to promise brisk acceleration of 0-62mph in 6.5 seconds. Caterham has stripped the 160 back to the bone with very low weight, it gets a five-speed manual – from Suzuki but tweaked by Caterham – and a live rear axle.

Report: Ram plans light-duty pickup

Chrysler's Ram brand plans to offer a light-duty front-drive pickup on a redesigned minivan platform beginning in 2013, according to a published report.

The vehicle will be targeted at the Honda Ridgeline pickup.
