All new Hyundai Elantra
This was sent to me by a reader. It looks like an official picture of the redesigned Elantra. (Avante in Korea) Looking good. But this might not be the best picture/angle. More very soon.

2016 Toyota Prius
Get ready. Because wether you like it or not, this will soon be EVERYWHERE! (They still sold over 120 000 of the “old” model last year) No specs from Toyota yet (And why???) But it is expected to get about 10% better fuel economy. Which is not really a game changer after over 6 years… Continue reading 2016 Toyota Prius

Bentley Bentayga video
Not sure how they will price this. Being based (kind of) on the Cayenne, it could be cheaper than their other models. Still, this is for people who want the most expensive of everything. The design is also really growing on me. This and the new S -Class convertible wouldn’t make a bad garage. I… Continue reading Bentley Bentayga video

Bentley Bentayga (official)
I have to take back what I was saying about the previous pictures. These new ones are just fine. And the car itself looks pretty good. Except for these uninspired rear tail lights. (Similar to the Flying Spur sedan) Otherwise, it does look the past of a super luxury SUV, I guess. Plus you get… Continue reading Bentley Bentayga (official)

2016 Bentley Bentayga
At least it has a (slightly) better name than the Jaguar F-Pace. And it looks much better than the horrific EXP 9F Concept from 2012. Although it’s not THAT different. I guess it was too late for a total redesign. But stronger character lines and better details do make for quite an improvement. There will… Continue reading 2016 Bentley Bentayga

Mystery Nissan Crossover coming up
Nissan will show a new Crossover at the upcoming Frankfurt auto show. So far this looks more like a concept to me… Not sure if there is any room at all for a new SUV/Crossover in Nissan’s line up. I mean from Juke to Pathfinder everything seems to be covered. So this could be the… Continue reading Mystery Nissan Crossover coming up

2016 Renault Megane
The Megane was always intended to be a “Golf fighter” in Europe. This time it seems more serious about it. Looking more upscale, and more conservative at the same time. Just like the all new Talisman going after the Passat. This will also go against the (aging?) Ford Focus and the all new Opel Astra.… Continue reading 2016 Renault Megane

2016 Porsche Carrera
Here are the first pictures of the revised Carrera for 2016. Not only they didn’t ruin it, but I think they managed to make a gorgeous car look even better. (slightly) But the big news is the all new 3.0 Liter turbo engine. With 370HP for the Carrera, and 420HP for the Carrera S. Great… Continue reading 2016 Porsche Carrera

2016 “Jaguar” F-Pace
Here is the first official picture. Nor surprises. At all. Since it looks the same as last year’s concept. I have to say that I’ve always loved Jaguars. But for the past few years, the “Jag” has been slowly taken out of them. The new XE and XF don’t look like a Jaguar should. At… Continue reading 2016 “Jaguar” F-Pace

GMC Canyon test drive coming up.
After driving that big black Silverado a few weeks ago, I was really wondering about its little brother, the Chevrolet Colorado. Instead of a Colorado, GM sent me a GMC Canyon. Which is basically a slightly more upscale version. The one I get to drive for a whole week is a 4 door, short bed… Continue reading GMC Canyon test drive coming up.

All new Kia Sportage interior
I bit more boring. More square and busy. I guess that’s what they would refer to as “more grown up”. Or “upscale”. I am sure it is. But I am still a big fan of the current model. Which seems a bit less pretentious to me…

Tesla Model X
This just looks goofy to me. Ever since they showed us the concept (years ago), I always thought it looked like a bloated Model S. I just wish it had its own design. It’s really the same car as the S except… bloated… The “falcon” doors still look obnoxious to me. It’s just way too… Continue reading Tesla Model X

Mercedes S-Class Convertible
I am a big fan of the S-Class coupe. So this is quite amazing to me. I cannot really imagine this thing looking even better in person, but I am sure it does. I have to say, this is what I would get if I had the money… So please. Tell ALL your friends about… Continue reading Mercedes S-Class Convertible

Infiniti Q30
We finally get to twee the interior of the all new Q30 compact (Which is coming to the US next year) I must say, it looks really nice. And quite upscale. Almost more than its Mercedes GLA cousin. I wonder about pricing. Which could be interesting since the GLA starts at about $32 000. The… Continue reading Infiniti Q30

Volvo S90
After ell these years, (almost 10) the S80 sedan is about to be replaced. By this all new S90 model. What we have here are pictures of a toy version of the car. So the real thing will of course look much better. And it already looks quite nice. It really looks like a sedan… Continue reading Volvo S90

2016 Toyota Prius
There it is. The all new Prius, finally. Looking, very… complicated . The front ends seems quite busy. And that rear light… But it doesn’t matter. It actually looks to me like a normal evolution from the current model. (Which now looks quite subtle compared to that) I haven’t heard of any technical breakthrough. Mileage… Continue reading 2016 Toyota Prius

2016 VW Passat (US)
First, let me remind you what VW officially said about the 2016 Passat: “major facelift”, “new sheet metal, new wheels, headlamps and taillights, more premium interior”. The picture above shows anything except a “major facelift”. What it shows is what they did with the Jetta for 2015. Very minute changes that only current owners would… Continue reading 2016 VW Passat (US)

2016 Citroen DS4 and new Crossback version
The DS4 is getting a few changes. Mostly the front end. Strangely enough, it is loosing all its Citroen logos. So now it’s just a DS4. Which seems a bit strange. Unless Citroen really wants to establish “DS” as its own upscale brand. (Although they are still sold at the same dealerships?) A new Crossback… Continue reading 2016 Citroen DS4 and new Crossback version

All new Hyundai Elantra
From the factory floor. As you can see, it is still a very nice looking car. But, just like the new Sonata, it does look a bit more conservative. Although not as “old” as it’s larger brother. (The Sonata does look like an old person car now) Inside. It is way more conservative than before.… Continue reading All new Hyundai Elantra
