Opel Adam
Finally official pictures of the smallest Opel model so far; It looks really cute. Although I still think it is trying very hard. Again, it is tough to compete with retro designs like the Fiat 500 as far as personality goes..Engines offered include a 1.2 Liter with 75hp; Or 2 versions of a larger 1.4… Continue reading Opel Adam

New Kia Forte
I tested a few versions of the current Forte a couple of years ago, and found it a very nice car.This new one should even be, and look better. Which will bring another good compact sedan to the US market.It is basically a “trunk added” version of the new Kia Ceed sold in Europe.And the… Continue reading New Kia Forte

Cadillac ATS Coupe?
At a recent ATS even, this model was on display.It looks like it could very well be the rumored coupe version of the all new ATS.Or at least, something based on the same platform. It looks like they are taking a different direction than the CTS Coupe.Something more along the lines of the Euro VW… Continue reading Cadillac ATS Coupe?

New “retro N600” Honda?
Not sure what it will be called yet.But Honda will build a production version of the really cool N Concept 4 they showed last year.Except, of course, they changed it enough to ruin it.Not it just looks like another super cheap little car . Only the front end has a little bit of a personality.Still… Continue reading New “retro N600” Honda?

Fiat Viaggio/Dodge Dart hatchback
The Viaggio is the same car as our Dodge Dart. Except for more chrome, a new front end and rear lights. These illustrations show what a hatchback version of the Fiat would look like.Which isn’t that hard to guess. So it is a question or wether Fiat will have the guts to built a Dart… Continue reading Fiat Viaggio/Dodge Dart hatchback

Opel Adam
After years and years of illustrations, guesses and spy shots, we finally get a good look at Opel’s all new city car.Which will go against the Mini and the 500. It seems to me that all these’ fashion cars” work because they are a modern version of old familiar designs. Like the Mini, Beetle and… Continue reading Opel Adam

Fit 500X
After the longer 4 door 500L, we have now this SUV type called the 500X. I wish they would stop calling these cars 500. As they have nothing to do with the actual 500. Except copying the front end. I think the 500L and this new X look just fine. It’s just weird they feel… Continue reading Fit 500X

2013 Hyndai Tucson
The Tucson gets a new front end for the new year.Not an improvement. At all.It actually pretty much ruins the front of the car.Trying to squeeze the new Santa Fe’s grille into the smaller Tucson just looks too weird. Here is the current model. Not perfect, but so much better….

2013/14 Mazda Miata
No, it’s not the all new one we’ve all been waiting for.Instead, this is yet another front end redesign of the current car. Which means, the real new one is at least still 2 years away… Just too bad….

All new Renault Clio
What a modern looking little compact car. Competing with Ford Fiesta type in Europe.And of course, it’s not coming here. We get the Versa….

Jaguar F-Type
They are showing off a little bit more of the new F-Type this week end.Looks like we might even get a look at the interior. So far, it looks great. even with all the crappy looking camouflage. Even has a more Jaguar feel and look than last year’s C-X16 concept. I can’t wait.

Mercedes CLS Shooting Brake
After a 4 door coupe, now a 4 door Shooting Brake. Which is basically a hatchback version, or a wagon, of the 4 door. This is pretty much the car we saw as a concept over 2 years ago. So there is absolutely no surprises here.It’s also too bad the CLS, 4 or 5 door,… Continue reading Mercedes CLS Shooting Brake

More pictures of the all new Mitsubishi Outlander
Sure, it does look a bit better than the current one. Although its design was never what was wrong with it, really.The super cheap interior, tiny doors, horrible CVT etc… This is what needs to be fixed. The new one is very generic and even more boring inside where it could be anything from any… Continue reading More pictures of the all new Mitsubishi Outlander

More pictures of the Cadillac ATS
New “action” shots of the small Cadillac sedan.Not sure if these look better, or if I am just getting used to the design. But I kind of like it. A bit more.Still, I wish the front grille wasn’t so.. Soft and boring… But the profile seems fine. And the interior as well. From these shots… Continue reading More pictures of the Cadillac ATS

2013 Chevrolet Spin
Yep. Everything screams “cheap”. the tiny wheels, the lack of radio, the 80’s looking cloth inside.Everything. This Chevrolet is not for the US but mostly Brazil. Where there must be a need for super cheap transportation for 7. Still, they could have made it a bit more attractive.

2013 Toyota Avalon Hybrid
That was kind of a surprise.Although the all new Avalon is still offered with the good old 3.5 Liter V6, there is now a new Hybrid choice.With a 2.5 Liter engine with 200hp. A similar set up is used in the current Camry. But the Avalon is a big car, and a big car that… Continue reading 2013 Toyota Avalon Hybrid

Jaguar F-Type teaser video.
Yes, technically, the car appears in the video.But it is so fast you can’t see it. Or even grab a frame from it. We’ll just have to wait a little longer to actually see it.I can’t wait for this car. Finally a smaller jag convertible to compete with the Boxter, Z4 and SLK.

Acura RLX Concept video
One of the best videos I have seen, for one of the most boring looking car ever. This car will never be noticed like it is in this short film.Only paid extras would turn their heads when it drives by. There is absolutely nothing new, nothing that stands out, nothing that says “buy me instead… Continue reading Acura RLX Concept video
