20 of the Lightest Cars Sold in the U.S. The cars on U.S. roads have continued to gain weight over the years. Your average midsize sedan now checks in at 3,300 pounds, and some compact cars have gotten so heavy that they also weigh more than 3,000 pounds. As cars continue to grow and contain more equipment, they get heavier; however, not all of them have passed the 3,000-pound threshold. Plenty are still under that mark. With the continued push for better fuel economy without sacrificing safety, space, and performance, automakers will be forced to make their vehicles lighter to meet government requirements. Here is a compilation of cars that have a head start on the rest of the industry when it comes to cutting weight. All of these vehicles weigh less than 3,000 pounds, even in their heaviest and/or range-topping variants. >> MEET THE CARS HERE! >> 10 Tech-Happy Concepts: From Cruze and i3 to Renegade and WRX Forum Leaks Technical Specs for Toyota S-FR 2016 Ford Focus RS to Have 350 HP in U.S. Styling: F-Pace vs. X4, Macan, Lexus NX Arsenal o' Democracy's Battle To Win WWII CHECKLIST FOR YOUR AUTONOMOUS-CAR FUTURE Google Self-Driving Cars First Ride: No Driver, No Problem?

The World's No. 1 Automotive Authority      NEW CARS USED CARS ROAD TESTS AUTO SHOWS FUTURE PHOTOS VIDEOS FEATURES BLOGS FORUMS WOT

13 Cool Facts About the 2017 Porsche 911 The Updated 911: From Virtual Gears to a Drift Mode I landed in Frankfurt, Germany, on September 9, 2015. Purpose? To attend a deep background seminar on the new turbocharged Porsche 911 Carrera and Carrera S, codenamed 991/2. Problem? Porsche lifted the global embargo on all the information on September 7, two days before I landed, so everything Porsche planned to show me would be old news. Annoying to put it mildly. As to why they would do this, the German media was finished with their 911 background story on September 6, and that was good enough for Porsche. When I asked Porsche to please let me know the five or six Porsche markets larger than the United States—and California doesn't count—they would only fidget. The U.S., if you're wondering, is by far Porsche's largest market. Anyhow, despite all the information going live three days before Porsche retold it to me, here's what I learned that wasn't necessarily in the press release.
