Nissan Versa Note test drive coming up.
I’ve just been told I will be driving a 2014 Versa Note next week. I’ve been pretty curious about that car. As the Versa sedan is, to me, one of the ugliest car around, I do like the Note. I think it is much better looking than the upcoming redesigned Honda Fit. Which would be… Continue reading Nissan Versa Note test drive coming up.

2015 Volvo S80?
This was shown during a design presentation, linked to the Concept Coupe reveal. Designers were explaining how design elements of the concept would end up in production models. What we see in this picture is obviously the rear door of a sedan. Since the S80 is next in line (after the XC90)…

2014 Volvo XC90
So far just a couple of teaser shots from Volvo. Looking more angular, just like the next Audi Q7. It has the T shaped LEDs from the coupe concept too. But let’s hope that the whole grille doesn’t actually lit up in real life. This is way too much LEDs . It seems kind of… Continue reading 2014 Volvo XC90

36 mph HWY for the 2014 Chevrolet Malibu
And 25 City. An improvement compared to last year’s 22/34 figures. These are really good numbers for a mid sized car. I reviewed the Turbo version last year and thought it was a great driving car. I also experienced the 2.5 Liter in the Impala recently and thought it was super smooth, refined and quiet.… Continue reading 36 mph HWY for the 2014 Chevrolet Malibu

New Kia Koup
I test drove the curent model a couple of years ago, and thought it was a good car. With a very nice design. This new one just looks like a melted version of the previous one. Not a really original design at all. It seems that Kia/Hyundai isn’t putting any efforts into designing coupe versions… Continue reading New Kia Koup

Even more pictures of the volvo Concept Coupe
These are really good shots, making the car look great. Still, I don’t think it is that original… Here is the one we saw last week, trying to guess what it was. Now with official logos.

Volvo Concept Coupe
A lot of really nice looking things here. Yet, for some reason, it comes off as a bit generic. At least to me. It does reminds me of the old P1800 in the 3/4 rear shot, which is great. But it seems the design tries very hard to be futuristic and retro at the same… Continue reading Volvo Concept Coupe

More pix of the Ford S-Max Concept
Looking really good. If Ford won’t sell it in the US, maybe this should come over as a Lincoln? Why not.

Ford S-Max Concept
The current Euro Van S-Max came out in 2006. So a replacement is coming out soon. This “concept” is pretty much the next -Max. No surprises. Just take an old S-Max, a new Fiesta, mix things up and there you go: The new S-Max. Just like the old one, it is not scheduled for the… Continue reading Ford S-Max Concept

Geely to sell cars in the US by 2016.
More claims of Chinese cars coming over here. This time from Geely. Volvo’s Chinese owner. They now plan to export cars developed with Volvo. Which probably means they will use Volvo designed platforms for their future cars. The opposite of what they said a few years ago when they wanted to keep the two brands… Continue reading Geely to sell cars in the US by 2016.

Infiniti Q30 Concept
This is still a concept. I guess the second on the same idea of a small Infiniti luxury hatchback. This time let’s hope it is close to the production car. As it looks pretty nice the way it is now. It is also supposed to share its platform with the Mercedes A class. So it… Continue reading Infiniti Q30 Concept

Long wheelbase Nissan Altima coming up
In China only. Where it seems that about every sedan gets a long wheelbase version. The Altima is actually called the Teana over there. Which used to be the name for a local version of the Maxima. The most interesting thing is the glass roof we see on the picture. Which would be a nice… Continue reading Long wheelbase Nissan Altima coming up
