Two vehicles in Japan built the brand in the United States soon may get the ax.

The Subaru Tribeca SUV and mid-size Mazda6 sedan will cease their manufacturers seek to improve the efficiency of U.S. assembly plants, a Japanese newspaper said.

Subaru has decided to leave R & d of production of a new generation of Tribeca and end after the current version, Nikkan Kogyo business daily reported on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, Mazda plans to stop manufacturing the Mazda6 at the plant in Flat Rock, Michigan, operates as a joint venture with Ford Motor Co. and Mazda that could lead to taking all together, the newspaper said.

Spokesmen for both companies declined to comment on the report.

But both Subaru and Mazda face some difficult decisions about these models into trouble.

The aging of Tribeca, which saw flat sales of only 910 units in the year to April, is sucking up valuable space in production Subaru plant in Indiana, where the company is suffering from an increased ability to build the popular Outback and Legacy.

The Nikkan Kogyo not say when the Tribeca was dropped. But the model, still in its first generation, was introduced in 2005.

Meanwhile, the Mazda6 is one of the reasons Mazda can not turn a regional operating profit in North America – one of its most important markets.

The company expects to produce 100,000 units per annum plant Mazda6 in Flat Rock, Michigan, when the redesigned sedan was launched there in mid-2008. After the financial crisis hit.

Last year the plant built only 45,168 units.

Mazda is cautious about the options you are considering. Closing the production of the Mazda6, which could bring in another vehicle – or Mazda could get off the ground completely. Speculation abounds in Japan that Mazda is considering a new, lower cost production base in North America in Mexico.

Ford has declined to comment on plans for Mazda.

Akio Toyoda may want to bring driving excitement back to Toyota, but he and his team have two major hurdles to overcome: The brands’s limited enthusiast base and the fact that Japan’s youth have very little interest in cars.

To combat both fronts, Toyota plans to launch a new line of budget-oriented vehicles that offer a modicum of sport. But so far, things don’t look too promising.

Despite debuting an FT-86-based concept at this year’s Tokyo Auto Salon, Toyota’s G Sports line of products have mainly focused on the Voxy and Noah minivans, while a “sports” version of the Prius is apparently in the works.

More interestingly, the Mainichi Daily News reports that a version of the GRMN sports car concept has been given the greenlight, meaning a mid-engined hybrid successor to the MR2 is in the works.

All these developments come after Toyota established a sports vehicle management division in January, which now has a hand in the brand’s overall product planning. We should get a look at the fruits of their labors during next year’s auto show season and could see this new breed of budget sports vehicles on the market – at least in Japan – within the next few years.

When the 2112 Ford Focus Electric debuts in late 2011, it and the Chevrolet Volt will have a common feature in addition to their LG Chem lithium polymer cells. Ford confirms that the Focus EV will employ a liquid-cooled battery pack with automatic thermal management, just like the Chevy.

Ford opted for active thermal management solution in order to help maximize the Focus EV’s battery performance and lifespan. By protecting the battery from overheating, the system can help prevent the development of cracks in the electrodes. Those imperfections eventually reduce the pack’s ability to hold a charge. Conversely, warming the cells when cold will improve the battery pack’s winter performance. When the car is plugged in, the thermal management system will use grid power to precondition the battery before charging actually starts.

So far, Nissan and Mitsubishi are the only major EV manufacturers that are sticking with passive air cooling for plug-in vehicles. Nissan has committed to an eight-year warranty, but it remains unclear how well the battery will hold up over regular use in differing climates.

So you’re headed to Japan and need to rent a car. What to choose? The island nation is a smorgasbord of metal foreign to American tastes, from a wide buffet of pint-sized kei-cars  to more American-sized contraptions. But what if none of those options have the kind of flair you require for that special business meeting? Fear not. Mitsuoka has you covered. The company has just announced a rental program that will let you pick up either of its two sports cars for a fairly low per-day rental rate in Osaka.

For a mere $390 per day, you can play around with the ridiculously over-the-top Orochi, complete with its underwhelming Toyota 3.3-liter V6 mounted mid-ship. If you require something topless, Mitsuoka will be happy to put you in the driver’s seat of its roadster, the Himiko for a mere $177 per day. Whichever you choose, you’ll need a fair command of the Japanese language to navigate Mitsuoka’s site. Our Google Translator was no help at all.

Recently, we showed you a behind-the-scenes look at Cadillac’s newest commercial featuring the CTS-V  sedan out on Germany’s hallowed-be-thy-name Nürburgring. Now, after all of the editing and post-production work has been completed, we’re left with a brand new television ad spot simply dubbed “The Competition,” showing viewers that one of the world’s fastest sport sedans will strive to be better and better. How can you improve on 0-60 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds and a ‘Ring run in just 7:59.32? We’re eager to find out.

Aside from the gloriousness of watching a CTS-V do what it does best out on one of the world’s greatest road courses, we like this video because it makes mention of the BMW M5 and Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG – two vehicles that inspired Cadillac to raise the bar for its own sport sedan. Give credit where credit is due, after all. Still, we like stiff competition, and you can watch Cadillac’s latest ad spot for yourself after the jump.
