AutoGuide Now for the Week of February 2

It’s February and we’re all ready to test some new cars. This week, we have a number of luxury cars in addition to a snowy adventure in an all-wheel drive crossover. Read all about it in AutoGuide Now.

2015 Subaru Outback – Mike Schlee, Road Test Editor: “On Tuesday I’ll be taking a 2015 Subaru Outback on a journey through all sorts of snowy conditions to see just how well a Subaru can handle the white stuff. Follow along live as I report back my findings.”

2016 Acura ILX: “Later in the week I am off to Napa Valley in California to drive the heavily revised 2016 Acura ILX. Never finding an identity of its own, with a more powerful standard engine, dual clutch gearbox and familiar family styling, is the ILX finally a legitimate premium compact contender?”

2015 Dodge Challenger – Craig Cole, Associate Editor: “No, it’s not Dodge’s fire-breathing Hellcat version but the Challenger SRT 392 still offers plenty of V8 rumble and 485 more-than-eager horses. I’m evaluating this sizable two-door and I can’t wait to see how well it performs in the winter weather. Hopefully it’s wearing snow tires, otherwise driving it will probably be like trying to climb up a twisty slide dripping with olive oil …”

2015 Acura TLX V6 AWD – Sami Haj-Assaad, Features Editor: “I’m back behind the wheel of an Acura TLX this week, where we’ll match it up against another V6 powered all-wheel drive Japanese Luxury sedan. The TLX is loaded with technology and driver assistance features but how will it match up in terms of luxury and sportiness against its rival the Infiniti Q50?”

2015 Infiniti Q50 – Stephen Elmer, News Editor: “Two Japanese luxury cars are battling this week and I’ll be in one of them: the Infiniti Q50. With steer-by-wire and AWD, the Q50 has a pretty sophisticated drivetrain. But how will it stack up against Acura’s new TLX? Watch for updates on both of these cars throughout the week.”
