NASCAR - Dollar General #20 Matt Kenseth

Matt Kenseth’s victory in the 2012 Daytona 500 placed the driver into an elite group of only 11 drivers in the history of NASCAR who have won the famed race more than once. With his first Daytona 500 win in 2009, the Cambridge, Wisconsin, native became one of only five drivers in the sport’s history to win a Cup Championship, the Raybestos Rookie of the Year Award, and the Daytona 500, placing him in the elite company of Dale Earnhardt, Jeff Gordon, David Pearson, and Richard Petty.

Toyota to make hybrid RAV4

Toyota plans to use the New York Auto Show to introduce a natural extension to its crossover line -- a hybrid version of the RAV4.

Toyota already has a Highlander hybrid, which runs on both electricity and its gas engine. An all-electric plug-in version of the RAV4 was dropped after it was announced last year that Tesla would no longer be supplying the batteries.

For now, Toyota is only showing a hint of the look of the new RAV4. It makes its debut next week.

The new RAV4 is keeping with Toyota's pledge to extend hybrid technology across its line. Because it's a compact SUV, there's a little more space inside to pack in suitcase-sized hybrid batteries than would be found in a sedan. And Toyota is banking that there are plenty of eco-minded families willing to pay a little more for a hybrid in order to save some gas.

While Toyota is known for hybrid version of its cars, it has none at present among its bigger family haulers. An electric plug-in version of the Highlander, done in conjunction with Tesla, is no longer part of the lineup.

2015 Toyota Prius: The Beginning of an Era

We all have come to know the Toyota Prius as an iconic image of the Toyota company. When you think of the Toyota brand, it is definitely one of the first automobiles that comes to mind. It is one of the smallest and most fuel efficient models that Toyota offers. With an astounding 51 miles to the gallon city and 48 miles to the gallon highway, it will be a life changing, money-saving decision to purchase and drive a 2015 Toyota Prius.

The 17 inch alloy wheels the Prius rolls on are coated in a beautiful dark metal finish that is both stylish and eco-sensitive. There are color-keyed side mirrors that add a touch of style and ensure that you intentions to turn are highly visible. For the darker of nights, the new model features illuminated footwells. The lights are an icy-blue. The brake and accelerator will be lit up for immense visibility. All throughout the cabin there are dark chrome accents for a more upscale feel and stylish look. From the steering bezel to the gear shift, from the door handles to the center console, the interior is fashionably infused with accents that will be virtually impossible for your passengers to ignore. 

Some other visibility features that are so crucial to the 2015 concept of the Toyota Prius are the Daytime Running Lights (DRL) and the LED Headlights.
