Nissan may have just introduced a “new” Rogue Hybrid for 2026, but that model isn’t really new at all. It’s basically a rebadged Mitsubishi Outlander with a few Nissan touches. The real story is the next-generation Rogue coming for the 2027 model year. And that one will actually matter. The upcoming Nissan Rogue, called the… Continue reading 2027 Nissan Rogue: First Look at the All-New SUV Nissan Is Preparing

Honda just canceled the Acura RSX EV.A brand-new electric crossover that was supposed to go on sale in just a few months. In other words, a nearly finished Acura EV we will probably never see. And that says a lot about Honda’s uncertain electric future. That also means Acura will be without new EV models… Continue reading Honda just canceled the Acura RSX EV. Could the next Integra save the brand?

Since an all-new BMW 3 series sedan is just around the corner, it would be safe to expect a new 4 series coupe pretty soon. The coupe usually follows the sedan by about a year. As we already know, the new 3 series sedan will use an architecture similar to the current car. Which makes… Continue reading 2028 BMW 4 series.

First, we will soon see a new Hyundai Elantra. However, there have also been persistent rumors about a new Hyundai Sonata coming as well. Which makes the situation a bit confusing for fans of Hyundai’s sedan lineup. This is quite puzzling since the next-generation Sonata sedan was widely believed to have been canceled, leaving the… Continue reading 2028 Hyundai Sonata.

Well, almost. The only model available this spring will be the most expensive Rivian R2 Performance trim. Which is what usually happens with new EV launches. That base $45,000 Rivian R2 is not available yet. We will have to wait until the end of next year for it. It will actually cost $46,500 and come with a smaller battery rated… Continue reading The 2027 Rivian R2 is here.

Volkswagen is already planning a major redesign for the next-generation Volkswagen ID.4, even though the 2025 model just received updates in the U.S. The new version, expected for the 2027 model year, will reportedly feature a completely redesigned exterior, a new interior, and the return of physical controls.

The new luxury VLE minivan from Mercedes will soon be sold in the United States, and it may end up being the only vehicle of its kind in the market. That raises an interesting question: why shouldn’t American luxury brands try something similar? Both Lincoln and Cadillac should be capable of developing a minivan that is just as luxurious. And… Continue reading Should Lincoln compete against the Mercedes VLE?

Yes, a Mercedes Minivan. This is not your average Mercedes Metris passenger van. This is a luxury car in the shape of a minivan. Something that is currently very popular in China. I guess it makes sense for Mercedes to be part of that trend. The upcoming Mercedes VLE is essentially a high-end luxury vehicle in the… Continue reading Discover the all-new Mercedes VLE Minivan.

We’ve been seeing spy shots of the next-generation Range Rover Velar for over a year now. Early prototypes of the new Velar were buried under the usual extremely heavy camouflage. Thick cladding, fake body panels, and confusing lighting signatures did an excellent job of hiding what the engineers were actually testing. But recently, something has changed. The… Continue reading 2027 Range Rover Velar redesign.

Another day, another illustration of what could be the next generation Nissan Skyline. The new Skyline and its sister car the Infiniti Q50, are due for a redesign sometime next year. Although we haven’t seen anything so far, illustrators are hard at work. This new illustration from Japan shows a car that looks a lot… Continue reading 2028 Nissan Skyline illustrations.

Until the all-new GV90 EV SUV shows up, the current Genesis G90 sedan sits at the very top of the Hyundai Motor Group hierarchy. It is the most expensive and most luxurious model the company currently sells. That upcoming flagship will almost certainly take over as the brand’s technological and design halo model. For now,… Continue reading 2029 Genesis G90. Nothing to lose…

Chrysler has just released a new photo and more info about the revised Chrysler Pacifica minivan for 2027. And it’s not as “revised” as we thought… First, there’s a new, cheaper model called the LX replacing the Chrysler Voyager as the brand’s cheapest Minivan option. Then, Chrysler has released a list of all the changes… Continue reading Meet the “not really new” 2027 Chrysler Pacifica.

Unlike the Toyota Highlander, the next-generation Acura MDX SUV will reportedly not be a fully electric vehicle. Instead, Acura has already confirmed it will be based on Honda’s upcoming large-size hybrid platform, which will also underpin the next generation of the Honda Pilot, Odyssey and eventually the next passport as well. That new platform will use a new V6 engine paired with… Continue reading 2029 Acura MDX Will Use a V6 Hybrid. But Will 30 MPG Be Enough?

More recently, a closed-door presentation in Japan revealed what is believed to be its Nissan counterpart, the next Skyline. Early information… Continue reading 2028 Infiniti Q50. Is Nissan betting on the wrong future?

This is what happens when you try to cram the worst-looking trims and materials into an otherwise almost-decent interior. The new Mercedes GT Sedan is just a ghastly palace inside. A display of vulgarity rarely seen outside of a cheap Las Vegas horehouse. If you can see through all the crap, the basic design is… Continue reading 2027 Mercedes AMG GT Sedan interior: what a mess…

That depends on what kind of automotive world you want to live in. Personally, I really wouldn’t mind seeing a new AMC Gremlin roaming the streets again, this time as a fun, retro-futuristic, affordable electric or Hybrid vehicle. In an era where so many cars look overly serious or generic, a quirky and personality-filled Gremlin… Continue reading Does the world need a new AMC Gremlin?

Let’s face it, Lincoln is stuck in a design rut these days. Just look at the current US lineup, and it’s hard not to notice how similar everything feels. Most of the brand’s SUVs share the same visual formula with large grilles and nearly identical proportions. From a distance, it can be difficult to tell one model… Continue reading Next-generation Lincoln Town Car for 2028?
