Upscale sedans—Road test and videos
Our February-issue car test group consists of upscale sedans, including some that blur the lines between upscale and luxury cars. The full road tests from the magazine have been posted at ConsumerReports.org, along with videos hosted by our automotive experts. These videos highlight the strengths and weaknesses of each model, bringing the road tests to life.
Tested upscale sedans include the redesigned Acura TL and Nissan Maxima plus, new models including the Hyundai Genesis, Lincoln MKS, and Pontiac G8. In addition, we tested the new Jaguar XF luxury sedan.
In the March issue, we’ll report on subcompact cars including the redesigned Honda Fit.

Like many large SUV owners, I'm looking for more economical transportation when I buy my next car. I still want luxury features, and with two giant Schnautzers need a reasonably large cargo deck [Ihave a well equipped Mercedes 350ML]. I was enthusiastic when I saw an announcement for a new down-sized Mercedes SUV, the GLK. But what a disappointment when I discovered they don't offer their clean, highly efficient, Blue Tech diesel engine, which gets 32mpg on their full size sedan, but only their 350 gas engine from their large ML [with a promise of 24mpg]. Are any of these automobile people aware of the real world?
