Cars and Culture of the '80s and '90s."LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- While some might reflect on the 1980s as not all that long ago, the Petersen Automotive Museum is celebrating the significant cars of that time, which are now considered classics.

    LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- These days, the biggest, most luxurious Lincoln is the Navigator SUV. Although decades ago, the biggest and most luxurious Lincolns were always sedans, often splashed across millions of TV screens as an aspirational vehicle for a character living large. But now, the Navigator is all new and loaded with more luxury and more technology, including a wide, sweeping display atop the dash. Most everything a driver needs to see, very close to the natural eyeline looking forward.

    ByDave KunzFriday, June 6, 2025 11:53PMOne of toughest challenges for automakers is figuring out what buyers will want in the near- and long-term future. Subaru is facing that dilemma by offering a variety of vehicles. LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Subaru definitely makes fun-to-drive cars. Their rally-bred WRX has been a legend for more than two decades. The latest tS version offers a combination of power, all-wheel drive grip and surprising comfort for everyday driving.

    LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- It's not Porsche's first hybrid, but it is Porsche's first hybrid sports car, the new 2025 911 Carrera GTS T-Hybrid. But don't compare this to a Prius or any other hybrid passenger car. The hybrid system is for extra performance by recovering energy that's otherwise wasted, for a usable power bonus. The new gas-electric 911 GTS has a starting price of about $165,000 before options.

    ByDave KunzTuesday, May 13, 2025 11:10PMJust about every car-maker now offers some kind of hybrid. That includes luxury brands like Bentley, BMW and Mercedes-Benz. LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Bentley's newest sleek coupe for 2025 is the Continental GTC Speed. It's an aspirational ultra-luxury ride with the usual attributes you'd expect and something you might not expect. This big British car is a plug-in hybrid, or PHEV. Recharge the hybrid battery and you're traveling on electrons, not gasoline.
