New Ford Ka
Let’s hope this one stays in south America and India. As the current Ka sold in Europe looks much better than this. This just looks really, really cheap. Competing with other super cheap entry level models in those markets. Here is the current Ka sold in Europe. This is the second generation and came out… Continue reading New Ford Ka

2015 Infiniti ESQ
This is Nissan’s weird idea to expand the Infiniti brand in China. An Infiniti badged Nissan Juke. As you can see, there is nothing new. Except the front grille and more chrome everywhere. The only good part of this is that it will stay in China.

Rolls-Royce SUV coming up?
And why the hell not… Since Bentley is doing it, right? This has been such a long rumor: a Rolls SUV. Maybe because it would really be the worst case of automotive blasphemy. Or because it would instantly become the best selling Rolls Royce ever and prove everyone wrong… Either way, here are some of… Continue reading Rolls-Royce SUV coming up?

2015 Nissan Navara/Frontier video
Still not sure if this is close to the US version we might be getting next year. (Nissan US is even saying they are focusing on a new Titan before a new Frontier.) So we might have to wait even longer. It has also been rumored that this truck could be a joint venture with… Continue reading 2015 Nissan Navara/Frontier video

“All new” Infiniti ESQ (???)
Yes, yes it is. A weird Infiniti version of the Nissan Juke. With 18 inch chrome wheels, Infiniti logos all around and 200HP from the same 1.6 Liter Turbo. The one good thing about this, is that it is only for the Chinese market (so far…) I really don’t think anyone here or Europe would… Continue reading “All new” Infiniti ESQ (???)

2015 VW Passat.
Euro Passat, that is. Not the one we are getting over here. The larger and cheaper one. This is all new. While all we are getting next year is a revised version of the current one. (By the way, the front wheel under the cover looks huge! What is that????)

All new 2015 Nissan Compact pick-up truck
But is it the new Frontier? Obviously these pictures are of right hand drive model. So it is mostly a new version of the overseas Navara model. (Which is pretty much the Frontier anyway…) Some sites are saying this is a Mitsubishi based truck. So not the new Frontier. What do you think. “2015 Frontier’… Continue reading All new 2015 Nissan Compact pick-up truck

Euro Toyota Auris as Scion for the US ?
Scion will be getting a few new models very soon. There will be a small sedan based on the next Mazda2. (That seems a weird choice to me) A small Crossover. ( A good choice as it is a growing segment) And there are rumors about the European Auris making it here as well. As… Continue reading Euro Toyota Auris as Scion for the US ?

2015 BMW X6
Same old thing really. Take the old design, use some current BMW details found in every other models of the brand. Add a Buick-like swoop above the rear wheel. And voila: the new one…

2015 Mini Cooper 5 door
This has been a rumor for so many years. Even back 2 generations ago. It is finally here. 2 small “regular” rear doors are added to the Mini. Making it about 6 inches longer than the regular model. Engine choices are the same as the new 2015 “3 door” model. I don’t think it ruins… Continue reading 2015 Mini Cooper 5 door

2015 Volvo XC90 Interior
It does look luxurious enough on these well lit pictures. And I am all for the upright display, which makes a lot of sense. Since it feels like a phone, something we are all using every day. But I am really not fan of replacing the dials with another screen. I know this is a… Continue reading 2015 Volvo XC90 Interior

2016 Fiat 500 “Plus”???
That’s a weird/interesting idea. Fiat could base a larger 500 model on the larger Punto platform and call it the 900 Plus. It would compete with cars like the Golf and Focus. It seems that Fiat is quite afraid to send us anything that isn’t called a 500. For some reason. So I guess they… Continue reading 2016 Fiat 500 “Plus”???

New Nissan Pick up coming up.
It is hard to say which one. Most people are saying this is the new Frontier. But Nissan has been hard at work on an all new Titan for a while. (No matter what it is, we won’t have to wait long since the whole thing will be unveiled next week) What do you think.

Something you don’t see every day…
Saw my 1st all new 2015 GTI yesterday. In Malibu. Even though the 1st ones are being delivered to dealers as we speak, I am not sure they are on the roads yet. This had a Michigan plate, so probably driven by a “member of the press”. I saw the Golf VII in Europe last… Continue reading Something you don’t see every day…
