2011 Jeep Wrangler
It didn’t really need anything, I thought, but it got it anyway.A new dashboard. Which is fine. And now, the removable top comes in colors.Plus, the Jeep of the future also comes with Bluetooth and a USB plug for your iPod.

2011 Hyundai Accent hatchback. And sedan
Seems like the new hatchback is a 5 door instead of the current 3 door version offered in the US. The new Accent looks more upscale than the car it replaces. And don’t forget, the current GLS sedan retails for about $13 500.We are talking about a pretty inexpensive car here. I think for the… Continue reading 2011 Hyundai Accent hatchback. And sedan

2011 Hyundai Azera
Hyundai figures that between the Sonata and the $33 000 V6 Genesis, there is still room for another sedan.Doesn’t seem to be working with the current Azera, at least in the US.(I have seen more Teslas than Azeras on the road in the past couple of years…) But it looks like they will try again.… Continue reading 2011 Hyundai Azera

2011 Dodge Durango
Just a few teasers for now. Underneath all these familiar design cues is hiding a cousin to the new Grand Cherokee. They’re even talking of a Hemi. Which will be very popular once gas hits $4 a gallon, I’m sure….

What could have been: 1980’s Buick Riviera
These 2 GM sketches are from the late 70’s. Probably early ideas for the 6th or 7th generation Rivieras. And actually quite stylish, for the time. And noticed the exhaust being incorporated into the rear bumper, like so many cars now.This is what the Riviera looked like from 1979 to 1985.More stylish than the previous… Continue reading What could have been: 1980’s Buick Riviera

2012 Ford B-Max?
It seems like Ford is getting the small Fiesta based B Max ready to start production sometime in 2011. I’d say chances of getting it over here are pretty slim. We are already not getting the new C-Max.The one we’re getting here is the bigger (and uglier) Grand C-Max.So the even smaller B-Max will probably… Continue reading 2012 Ford B-Max?

Mini-er Mini?
Mini is working on an even smaller car.It kind of make sense. When you see the current mini next to the original, the new one looks huge. So there is room to shrink. The new model would compete with the Smart and Toyota/Scion iQ, so it might not even seat four.

What could have been: 1970’s Oldsmobile Toronado
These are pictures of a proposal for the 2nd generation Toronado. The original, produced from 1966 to 1970 was quite a stunning looking car.The design pictured above looks actually insane.More like a movie prop for a 1960’s Batman movie than a real car. But it does show how far out of the box GM designers… Continue reading What could have been: 1970’s Oldsmobile Toronado

Mazda 6 V6 Grand Touring Test Drive
-HOW IT LOOKS. There is no doubt, the Mazda6 is one of the best look midsized sedan available in our market. Although since it came out, we have seen an all new Sonata, and a new Malibu and Kia Optima are on their way.Competition will be even tougher. It is still a much nicer design… Continue reading Mazda 6 V6 Grand Touring Test Drive

2011 Toyota Highlander
The front as almost all new, but that might be the biggest news for the revised Highlander.Don’t expect a new interior, or new engines. The Highlander has always been one of the most invisible car on the road, and the 2nd generation didn’t do anything to change that. The Camry of SUVs now lives in… Continue reading 2011 Toyota Highlander

Next Porsche 911 Illustration
This would look great, just the way it is.Keeping the traditional 911 lines and making the whole thing look almost futuristic at the same time. Not that I am in the market for one, but it would be great to see these in the streets.

2011 VW New Mid Sized sedan
Still just an illustration.But it seems a good bet, considering spy shots and the official sketch from VW. I guess they won’t try anything new. Maybe try to attract the masses with a subtle classy design.It might just work…

Peugeot 508
This is what it looks like in the streets.Already invisible and quite boring.. But the worse thing is, the trunk that is not even protected by the bumper.That bumper doesn’t seem to be sticking out at all, protecting nothing. I have seen this in some SUVs before, like the CRV, but never on an upscale… Continue reading Peugeot 508
