Perhaps not the most exciting drifting we've seen here on WCF. Nonetheless, it's not every day that you get to see a Toyota iQ, or perhaps even better, its Aston Martin Cygnet version drifting in a car park.

Filed under: Coupe , Performance , Marketing/Advertising , Videos , Aston Martin , Luxury If Aston Martin wants to make a sexy commercial, there probably doesn’t need to be that much thought involved. All the ultra luxury brand needs to arouse the typical auto enthusiast is a collage of shots of the company’s Vantage , Rapide or DB9 . That didn’t stop Aston Martin from stocking its latest video creation with women, however, but it’s not what you think.

Filed under: Detroit Auto Show , Sedan , Ford The current Ford Fusion is already capable of taking on the Camry and Accord , but the fact is that the Honda and Toyota mid-size offerings sell better at the dealership. Ford was quick to point out at its press conference that Camry and Accord sales were down 31 percent and 28 percent, respectively, since 2007, with increased competition being a major culprit for the decline. The Fusion has taken a different route, with 2011 serving as the sedan’s best year of sales ever. Ford is hoping to add a whole lot more pressure to the Japanese stalwarts with the addition of the 2013 Fusion .

Filed under: Detroit Auto Show , Hybrid , Sedan , Ford When the original Ford Fusion Hybrid debuted in 2009 as a 2010 model, it was rated at 41 miles per gallon in the city, making it the most fuel-efficient mid-size sedan in North America. Ford aims to re-capture that same magic with the 2013 Fusion Hybrid, which makes its debut today at the 2012 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. Final EPA numbers have not been released just yet, but Ford’s preliminary data suggests that the 2013 Fusion Hybrid will be capable of achieving 47 mpg in the city, along with an immensely respectable 44 mpg highway. That’s better than the mid-size hybrid offerings from Hyundai , Kia and Toyota
