Ram News: 2015 Ram ProMaster City To Start At $24,125
Another entry to what looks to be a very hot segment. Interesting though that the Ram C/V Tradesman (née Dodge Caravan Cargo) is actually $3,000 less than the Promaster City. Arguably, unless you have a both need for small footprint and you're extremely MPG sensitive, the Ram C/V Tradesman is probably a better buy.

Scion iM Concept Released Ahead of LA Auto Show: Comments
Ahead of the LA Auto Show next week, Scion released details today of their Scion iM concept. The iM is a 5-door hatchback with looks that Scion says are inspired by the European racing circuit. The concept rides on 19" forged wheels surrounding 4 piston callipers with front vented disk brakes. The suspension is height adjustable. What this means to you: The Scion iM concept is based on a car sold in the European market as the Toyota Auris. Toyota swapped out the logo for a Scion badge. Expect a direct carry-over of the tamer Toyota Auris to be sold here in the US without the body-kit and wheels shown on the concept. The Scion iM concept will debut at the LA Auto Show on Wednesday, November 19th and we will be on hand to get you more details as they come.

Young people just need a vehicle to get them, and all their gear, to their destination in style. The new Scion iM Concept car is designed with that in mind and will debut on Wednesday, November 19 at the Los Angeles Auto Show. The iM Concept is a five-door compact hatchback with sporty looks inspired by those seen on the European touring car racing circuit. The concept brings in captivating styling with edgy, geometric grille inserts, deep air intakes and fog lights. The custom-blended “Incrediblue” paint is complemented by matte silver and gunmetal accents. To create a grounded appearance ready for the road, the iM Concept has wide aerodynamics and a lower ride height. The performance inspiration carries through into the 19-inch forged alloy wheels and sporty performance tires. Vented front rotors and 4-piston calipers work with the adjustable height racing suspension to complete the racecar-influenced design. “The tastes of today’s younger buyers have evolved. They want a car that provides excitement and individuality, as well as the comfort, technology and reliability that Scion offers,” said Scion Vice President Doug Murtha. “The iM Concept combines sleek styling with the versatility of a modern hatchback to catch the eye of Scion customers. Stay tuned for more on how we will bring this vision to the road.” Scion’s press conference will be held at 3:40 p.m. on Wednesday, November 19 at Scion’s display in the South Hall.

At this point, we have no reason to not believe R&T. They basically leaked the press release.

What sells is what matters. Also keep in mind that when a CTS-V comes, it will likely get the V8.

Review: 2014 Jeep Cherokee Altitude
I really like these. I've driven them multiple times. I wonder if there is something slightly different internally with the 9-speed when it is mated to the V6 instead of the I4.... or maybe it is calibrated differently. I've only ever had the shuddering William describes when driving the I4. The V6 is nice and smooth.
