  • 2014 BMW X5 spy shots

    A prototype for the upcoming third-generation BMW X5 has been captured in testing once again, this time with the least amount of camouflage we've seen yet. Previously leaked images also reveal much of the design, though we can’t confirm if they are the real deal just yet. Code-named F15, the new X5 will bring sleeker looks, lighter weight, more efficient engines, and more high tech to the luxury SUV nameplate. Weight reduction, as with other recent BMW models, will likely come through the use of high-strength steel, more aluminum, and smarter design. Cutting weight is, after all, one of...

While we're generally not too moved by the compact crossover class, this one has our attention. The 2014 Hyundai Genesis sedan has been spied in testing again, revealing more of its form despite a more thorough covering of camouflage. For all of this...
