BMW i1.
The all-new BMW i3 EV sedan is right around the corner, with an iX3 EV SUV will be coming out soon as well. And we are already talking about what’s next. Which would be a new, smaller BMW EV sedan called the i2, as well as a new smaller hatchback called i1. These would probably… Continue reading BMW i1.

Chrysler Cordoba.
Every few weeks or months, we hear from Chrysler that the brand isn’t dead. New cars are coming. So far, the plan is for a new EV SUV related to the Jeep Wagoneer S sometime late this year or next year. Then, a heavy refresh of the Chrysler Pacifica, as well as an all-new EV… Continue reading Chrysler Cordoba.

Ford Fiesta EV.
Ford killed the Fiesta in 2023. (It was discontinued long before in North America.) And a new EV generation could be on its way, thanks to VW. Apparently, the VW-based Ford EVs have been quite successful in Europe, after a delayed and rough start. Sales of the European Explorer EV and new Capri EV have… Continue reading Ford Fiesta EV.

Lincoln Continental Sedan.
I posted an illustration of a possible future Lincoln Continental Mark IX Coupe a few days ago. The one above shows what a sedan version could look like. While Lincoln has probably no plans for anything but SUVs in the near future, a 4-door sedan would still have a better chance of making it than… Continue reading Lincoln Continental Sedan.

Ram Rampage for the US.
These new patent images are rumored to show Ram‘s upcoming “compact” pickup for the North American market. As you can see, they do match exactly the Ram Rampage that has been on sale in South America since June 2023. The Rampage is based on the same platform as the current Jeep Compass. It is one… Continue reading Ram Rampage for the US.

2026 Jeep Compass.
While I already posted a few (more colorful) photos of the all-new Jeep Compass, these seem to show a slightly different trim. The front end shows more black plastic trim under the grille. Which could mean a more off-road oriented version of the new small Jeep. It also seems to show the EV version. It… Continue reading 2026 Jeep Compass.

2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9 pricing.
The all-new Hyundai Ioniq 9 EV SUV was unveiled at the Los Angeles auto show last November. It took a while, but we finally know how much it will cost. The base model will start at $58,900 before destination. The base RWD S trim is rated at a very impressive 335 miles of range. And… Continue reading 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9 pricing.

Acura RDX review.
Since it came out back in 2018, I’ve driven the Acura RDX a few times. It is rumored to be canceled at the end of next year, and I thought it would be interesting to drive it one more time in 2025. I personally think the design has aged very well. However, I never got… Continue reading Acura RDX review.

2026/27 Kia Telluride.
Another day, another spy shot of the upcoming 2nd-generation Kia Telluride for 2026. (Probably 2027 in the US) Even though it is over 5 years old, last year was the Telluride’s best year ever, with over 115,500 of them sold. Sales have been increasing every single year since its introduction in 2019. That means Kia… Continue reading 2026/27 Kia Telluride.

Lincoln Continental Mark IX.
The illustration above shows what a new large luxury 2 door coupe from Lincoln could look like. Something we will probably never see again. The first of the “Mark” series was the 1956 Lincoln Continental Mark II. It was priced at the equivalent of $112,000 today. There was a Continental Mark III in 1958, Mark… Continue reading Lincoln Continental Mark IX.

2026 Jeep Compass.
These are the first official photos I have seen of the all-new Jeep Compass for the 2026 model year. They all show the European market version of the new model. And probably the EV trim. And so far, so good. The design seems to be very attractive and chunky. Just like in other modern Jeeps,… Continue reading 2026 Jeep Compass.

2026 Honda CR-V TrailSport.
As promised a few months ago, Honda has updated the CR-V for the 2026 model year. The biggest change is the addition of a new TrailSport trim. In general, the 2026 model looks exactly the same as the current version. The only changes reported by Honda are a larger screen, wireless charging, and wireless CarPlay.… Continue reading 2026 Honda CR-V TrailSport.

Lexus 3-row EV SUV.
Back in October, we heard news that Toyota was pushing back its EV manufacturing plans in the US. Things have obviously changed since, and they are now planing to introduce 10 new EV models by 2027. Including the Lexus brand. Toyota has just launched the revised BZ4X, a new C-HR+, and the Urban Cruiser in… Continue reading Lexus 3-row EV SUV.

Hyundai Elexio.
The Elexio is an all-new Hyundai EV model. It was previously thought to be called the Ioniq 4. This is a new product that will be sold only in China. Hyundai claims it is using a new platform. Which could mean it is not related to the Ioniq series we are familiar with. The Elexio… Continue reading Hyundai Elexio.

Tesla Compact.
It looks like a new Tesla model prototype might have been caught on camera. The 2 images on top seem to show a car with no doors or roof, in a parking lot full of Tesla Model Y. However, it also looks a lot like the Model 3, without doors or a roof. So, who… Continue reading Tesla Compact.

Honda Accord Hybrid test drive video.
Please join me and watch this short video showing a bit of my experience driving a Honda Accord Hybrid for a week. I had test-driven the Accord Hybrid a couple of years ago, and somehow, liked it much more this time around. I guess my expectations were different this time around. And I wasn’t comparing… Continue reading Honda Accord Hybrid test drive video.

Lincoln Town Car.
We have not seen a new Lincoln Town Car since 2011, its last year of production. I just saw one a few days ago in my neighborhood, and it reminded me of a time, not so long ago, when luxury was defined by sedans and coupes, not huge SUVs. Lincoln sold just 15,264 Navigators last… Continue reading Lincoln Town Car.

2027 Toyota Corolla sedan.
The Toyota Corolla has been one of the most popular cars in the world for decades, with over 1 million sold year after year. A new generation is due next year, based on a revised version of the recurrent platform. Besides an all-new design and interior, the main event could be the all-new 1.5-liter engine.… Continue reading 2027 Toyota Corolla sedan.

2026 Alfa-Romeo Stelvio.
Alfa Romeo is getting ready to replace both the Stelvio SUV and the Giulia sedan. Today, we see, for the first time, patent images of the 2nd generation Stelvio SUV. As you can see, these new images match perfectly the official teaser Alfa Romeo released last year. Both models will be based on the STLA… Continue reading 2026 Alfa-Romeo Stelvio.

Cadillac Eldorado.
We will probably see at least of of the 2 new EV sedans Cadillac is working on this year. Both will be based on an updated version of the recurrent Ultium platform. Recent Cadillac models have all been SUVs. (Except for the Celesitiq, almost no one has seen yet). An all-new sedan will be quite… Continue reading Cadillac Eldorado.
