• 2016 Fiat 500

    This seems kind of weird. I had heard about an all new 500 coming out soon. But this looks like just a “facelift” for the next year. (or even sooner) Which means an all new one is at least 2 or 3 years away. The current Fiat 500 came out back in 2007 (in Europe).… Continue reading 2016 Fiat 500

  • Buick Avenir Concept

    I think this looks great. An American luxury car that doesn’t try to look European. Which, I think, is the right idea. I do like the retro touches a lot. And the interior is simple and modern. Not sure if this is a preview of things to come at Buick. But it is our first… Continue reading Buick Avenir Concept

  • 2016 Buick Cascada

     It’s finally here. And it is NOT called the Velite. Other rumors were wrong, like a new “more Buick like” grille. Or the 2.0 Liter engine. Instead, it looks like we are getting the exact same car as the Opel version. Even the grille is exactly the same, which is almost weird. ( I wonder… Continue reading 2016 Buick Cascada

  • 2016 Lincoln MKX

    The MKX doesn’t look like a Ford Edge anymore. Just like the MKC doesn’t look like the Escape it is based on. I think Lincoln has really found a very nice “look”. Finally. While Cadillac seems to be focused on competing with BMW and Mercedes (but actually ends up being more like an American Infiniti… Continue reading 2016 Lincoln MKX

  • 2016 Buick Velite?

    This is what the Buick display at the Detroit Auto Show is supposed to look like. Which shows a Buick version of the Opel Cascada. (rumored to be renamed Velite for the US market) They are also supposed to show the US version of the Envision SUV shown in China last year. I am glad… Continue reading 2016 Buick Velite?

  • Kia KX3

    So far this is for the Chinese market (Which is what they always say before it ends up over here) It looks a bit generic to me. Kia has done more original stuff in the last few years. Still, it does seem nice. Nice enough to compete with the new Mazda CX2 and Honda HR-V.… Continue reading Kia KX3

  • Infiniti Q60 Concept

    Finally, the new “G37 Coupe” is almost here. Infiniti has already said the concept will be “very, very close” to the production model. So basically, smaller wheels, real door handles and maybe a toned down lower bumper. Seems like a good looking car so far, if a bit busy.

  • 2016 Chevrolet Volt

    Not much yet. Except this picture. It is being shown today at CES in Las Vegas. ( I though they had chosen the Detroit Show…) So far it reminds me a bit of a smaller Opel Insignia (Buick Regal). Let’s hope it doesn’t look too much like the next Cruze… More on this very soon.

  • 2016 Hyundai Equus

    Just a couple more pictures of the next Equus. Looking a bit more conservative than the current model. At least on these shots. It’s basically competing in a conservative market, so I guess it’s not going to make any waves. There is an all new Lexus LS due out at about the same time. So… Continue reading 2016 Hyundai Equus

  • GAC GS4 SUV

     Another year, another 100’s or so new Chinese models. This one seems to look OK. Interestingly enough, it will be introduced this month at the Detroit Auto Show. Of course, it won’t be sold in the US anytime soon. I guess it makes the company look good in its home market, to show off cars… Continue reading GAC GS4 SUV

  • 2016 Hyundai Tucson

     There’s an all new Tucson coming out later this year. Looking nice, like most recent Hyundai models. And again, looking like a slightly more conservative version of the current one. The interior does seem a bit more upscale, and less gimmicky. The slightly more conservative trend might actually not be such a bad move. I… Continue reading 2016 Hyundai Tucson

  • 2016 Ford Taurus

    Looks like we won’t have to wait long to see the whole thing. From this angle, it just looks like a larger Fusion. Which isn’t bad, I guess. But from what we’ve seen before, the profile and interior are very different from the Fusion. I still like the current Taurus. I think it is an… Continue reading 2016 Ford Taurus
