From the logbook: Hyundai Genesis
Car companies usually have a few competitors that they target, be it for benchmarking or simply for stealing sales. This list is usually a short one of a few top sellers and performers. For example, a car company would be crazy not to target its new family sedan at the Honda Accord, Nissan Alti...

How the fuel-cell cars compare
When we drove the Honda FCX and the GM Sequel fuel-cell prototype vehicles, we found that the Honda is much better finished and much more like a traditional car. (Read our complete first drive of the Honda FCX sedan.) It feels like a very nice Honda Accord, with an electric whine taking the pla...

RIP: Honda Accord Hybrid

Personal Picks: Family sedans, part 2
But newer competitors are tugging at my heartstrings. The Nissan Altima offers more cool stuff--like keyless entry and ignition--than the Accord, and the four-cylinder/CVT combination is an amazingly good powertrain. (Maybe I would even take it over the rocket ship V6. Maybe.) I love the...

Personal Picks: Family sedans, part 1
Feeling the pressure of escalating energy costs on my wallet, I could be very satisfied with the four-cylinder versions of the venerable Honda Accord and the new Nissan Altima. Both are nicely equipped for around $23,000, fun to drive with nimble handling and a comfortable ride, and have...

From the logbook: Lexus ES350
Roomy seats, front and rear, except head room isn't generous." I appreciate the rear-view camera; it's needed since the rear visibility is quite poor with a short window and tall sill." Nice car, but not much better than a loaded Honda Accord."
