Car and Driver presents the latest new cars, vans, SUV's, and pickups, both imports and domestics, with an emphasis on those cars made for the man or woman who knows the rewards that an outstanding automobile can bring to its driver. Editorial examines in detail new technology, new directions, and new ideas put forth by the automotive industry and takes a diversified approach to the vehicles they cover, ranging from practical, to the exotic, to the opinionated. Their mission is to provide the best written, most accurate, and most thorough reporting on automobiles available. The publication was originally founded as Sports Cars Illustrated in 1955. In its early years, the magazine focused primarily on small, imported sports cars. In 1961, Editor Karl Ludvigsen renamed the magazine Car and Driver to show a more general automotive focus. 2005 marked the 50th anniversary of the publication. The magazine is notable for its irreverent tone and habit of "telling it like it is," especially with regard to underperforming automobiles. The magazine was one of the first to be unabashedly critical of the American automakers. However, it has been quick to praise noteworthy efforts like the Ford Focus and Chevrolet Corvette.
