Auto News For Monday, April 25, 2016 – There’s Another New Top Gear Trailer

2016 Ariel Nomad

Here are the six must-read, must-watch auto news stories and videos for Monday, April 25, 2016.

FORD
On economic terms, the smallest Ford F-150 engine is the best F-150 engine. Rather than the BoostEco of the 3.5, Ford’s 2.7L twin-turbo is a true EcoBoost. – TTAC

VOLKSWAGEN
“We’ll tell you everything about our internal investigation. Scratch that: no we won’t.” – Automotive News

FIAT
Shocker. Other automakers have some dirty diesels. – Reuters

RECALL
Deserving of a recall simply because they’re unnecessarily stupid, the shifters in Jeep Grand Cherokees have created a recall because of a rollaway risk. Chrysler 300s and Dodge Chargers are affected, as well, in a 1.1-million-vehicle recall. – Autofocus

QX SPORT INSPIRATION
Is this the next Infiniti QX50, perhaps the next QX70, perhaps both? The Infiniti QX Sport Inspiration Concept is not remotely as phantasmagoric as many concepts, so we expect that this is more than just a styling exercise. – Top Gear

WATCH
In the new Top Gear’s latest trailer, Matt LeBlanc has a very hard time getting into an Ariel Nomad.
