With roots tracing back to World War Two, no manufacturer is more ociated with go-anywhere, do-anything off-road capability than Jeep. Now, more than 60 years after its introduction, the definition of the Jeep brand is expanding.

Unlike previous Jeeps, the Patriot is based on a front-drive, unibody compact car platform that it shares with the Jeep Compass and the Dodge Caliber. Although mechanically similar to those vehicles, the Patriot is designed to be more capable off-road than either the Caliber or Compass.

The all new Patriot plows new ground for the Jeep brand in the compact SUV category. With good fuel economy, boxy Jeep styling and a starting price under $15,000, the Patriot offers an interesting package for people looking for an affordable SUV they can take off road.

Chevy Malibu. Is the all-new Chevrolet Malibu ready to win the head-to-head competition with perennial favorites like Honda Accord and Toyota Camry? It’s a tall order, but the just-introduced Malibu is poised to steal back the popularity it once enjoyed. A renewed emphasis on bold, upscale-looking interior treatments gives it a surprisingly sophisticated appearance. And on the outside, the new design has an athletic look backed up by a handling-oriented suspension and a powerful optional V6. The result may surprise many consumers who have largely written off domestic vehicles. For more new car reviews, interviews and automotive news visit kbb.com today.

2009 BMW 5 Series. Among midsize luxury sedans, the BMW 5 Series is the only car to offer a manual transmission — a fact that reflects its sporty appeal. As its quietly grown into a living legend, the continuing success of the performance-oriented 5 Series has helped to invigorate the entire category in which it competes. The softer Mercedes-Benz E-Class and Audi A6 are still sportier than ever, while the Infiniti M offers stiff competition at a bargain price. The BMW 5 Series lineup includes an offering for every taste, with sedan and wagon body styles, six-cylinder and V8 power and rear- or all-wheel drive.

The premium-badged 2008 Acura RDX, combining sport sedan-like power and handling with the cargo versatility, high seating position and all-wheel-drive capability of an SUV, boasts a full arsenal of appeal. Upon its introduction for the 2007 model year the RDX’s only true competitor was the BMW X3, a vehicle that essentially had the compact premium SUV segment all to itself since its introduction for the 2004 model year. With new and upcoming entries from Audi, Infiniti, Mercedes and others, buyers will benefit from even more options.

Many people think Buick only makes cars that appeal to the oldest of drivers. But it may be time to reassess that opinion. With the Enclave crossover-SUV, Buick shows that its vehicles can not only be comfortable and quiet but also, dare we say, cool. The 2008 Buick Enclave isn’t Buick’s first foray into the world of crossover SUVs but it is the brand’s strongest effort yet. Upscale styling, a distinctive interior and an obsessive focus on noise reduction distinguish the 2008 Buick Enclave from the Saturn Outlook and GMC Acadia, which share its underpinnings.

Saturn VUE. Versatile, practical and stylish could be the mantra of the 2008 Saturn VUE. A mid-size SUV with plenty of cargo-hauling ability and seating for five, the 2008 Saturn VUE has been revamped to reflect European design elements and a higher level of interior refinement. The previous generation Saturn VUE didn’t have much pizzazz — the conventional large-SUV design features didn’t work well with the Saturn VUE’s smaller dimensions. The new-generation Saturn VUE is both larger and more stylish, offering more appeal to singles and families wanting an easy-riding SUV with plenty of character. A hybrid version of the VUE offers more sophisticated technology and even better gas mileage. But the 2008 Saturn VUE does not offer a third row of seating, though some of its competitors do.

Is it possible for a front-wheel-drive car to compete in the largely rear-drive premium performance sedan category? Absolutely, according to Acura, and America seems to agree, making the TL a top selling luxury sedan and Acura’s most popular model.

In an attempt to meet the divergent needs of luxury sedan owners, the Acura TL comes in two distinct flavors. Those most interested in comfort can choose the regular TL while the Type-S meets the needs of drivers who want a higher level of driving excitement. Bose versions are based on the ubiquitous Honda Accord sedan.

Ford Escape. The Ford Escape has the distinction of being America’s best-selling compact SUV, selling more than a million copies since its introduction in 2001. Despite its sales success, outdated styling and strong competition from Honda and Toyota necessitated significant revisions. Ford hopes a new look and more standard features will help maintain the 2008 Ford Escape’s popularity. For more new car reviews, interviews and automotive news visit kbb.com today.

In a category dominated by uninspiring designs, the Dodge Avenger stands out as a mid-size sedan with style. Offering looks that mimic the aggressive Dodge Charger, the Avenger adds a dose of excitement to the typical family sedan formula.

In addition to stand-out styling, the Avenger offers an impressive list of exclusive features and creature comforts. And for you in traction-challenged areas, it is also one of the few cars in its segment to offer all-wheel-drive.
