2018/19 VW T-Roc
Last year, VW came up with the T-Cross concept. (IN yellow above)A small SUV set to compete with others like the Nissan Juke or Honda HR-V etc… The concept was even a convertible version. But this above picture (blue car) is supposed to show us the production version, called the T-Roc. And it doesn’t look… Continue reading 2018/19 VW T-Roc

2018 VW Jetta?
Yes, this is a similar picture than the one I posted earlier HERE. Thinking it was the next Polo. But from this wider shot, which includes the name “Jetta”, it obviously isn’t the Polo. We really can’t see much anyway. There is a third side window, large headlights… That’s about all I can make out. But… Continue reading 2018 VW Jetta?

2018 VW Touareg
Well, as you can see, the next Touareg (in while) will look exactly like the T-Prime concept from last year. The T-Prime looked just fine. Even great when compared to the sad Atlas. But that crease on the side is getting really close to an Audi design. It seems that, in general, VW is competing… Continue reading 2018 VW Touareg

2018 Buick Regal Wagon (TourX)
This is supposed to be the all new Wagon version of the 2018 Regal sedan. From what I have heard, it will be only offered as this Tour X AWD version in the US. Even though it is raised a bit (maybe a couple of inches?) I think it looks great. The only engine for… Continue reading 2018 Buick Regal Wagon (TourX)

Is the Lexus GS dead?
The Japanese press is reporting the next generation Lexus GS might never see the light of day. It seems that Lexus things they have plenty of sedans with the IS, ES and the all new LS. And why not, really. Last year, they sold 14 878 units of the GS. Not a horrible number. Right?… Continue reading Is the Lexus GS dead?

2018 Toyota Yaris
This is being introduced in China as the Yaris L. At first you would think it’s just a 4 door sedan version of the Yaris. But it seems to be a totally different car. Our Yaris hatch just got a new front end recently, and a few minor updates. But it’s almost time for an… Continue reading 2018 Toyota Yaris

2018 VW Polo. The real thing
This is it. Kind of. There is still bit of clever camouflage on the car. Especially the tail light. There is something going on there. This is quite sad. As it seems VW is unable to design an interesting looking hatchback these days. They really need to call someone like Ital Design for help (Giugiaro… Continue reading 2018 VW Polo. The real thing

2018 VW Polo
These look pretty realistic. Since they just look like a small Golf. Which is what the current Polo looks like. We are supposed to be getting the next generation Polo here in the US. And with more and more hatchbacks available to us, we actually be getting this one. it would compete with the Fiesta,… Continue reading 2018 VW Polo

2018 Buick Regal/Opel Insignia
Just a few more pictures of the new Opel Insignia. ( I had not seen the tan/black interior before) Although not 100% sure yet, we are probably getting the hatchback version pictured above as our next Buick regal. Which will be unveiled early next month. So I thought it might be interesting to see more… Continue reading 2018 Buick Regal/Opel Insignia

VW GTI test drive coming up.
Just got this car for a week. So I’ll be…driving it! All the time. If you have any questions about it, go ahead. So far? Like most VW engines, it sounds like a “quiet” diesel at idle. A big rush of power after 2500RPM. So I’d say a bit of lag. Feels solid as a… Continue reading VW GTI test drive coming up.

Next Audi A6, A7 and A8
Wow, this is quite amazing to see. And quite sad. As it looks like there is no hope to see anything interesting from Audi anytime soon. Just what they have been doing for years, copying themselves. I mean it looks, from this, like they are proud to point out the different grilles from their 3… Continue reading Next Audi A6, A7 and A8

2018 Hyundai Sonata videos
Here are a couple of videos of the new, revised, 2018 Sonata. Both are showing the Korean model. The second video is quite long. Showing a couple of nerds foundling the car inside and out. It does look nice. And quite upscale. As I mentioned before, this would compete more in the conservative end of… Continue reading 2018 Hyundai Sonata videos

2018 VW Polo sedan
Looks like it could be. Why not… Another super boring/old/conservative small VW sedan. There is an all new Polo due out pretty soon. And this time the US is supposed to be getting it. (Unless the plans changed and all we are getting is the new Polo based SUV.) But we were originally supposed to… Continue reading 2018 VW Polo sedan

PSA/Opel “merger” 1st casualty: The next Opel Corsa
They’ve been testing this car for a while now. it looks like it was almost ready to go. But no… The PSA boss is now saying the next Corsa will switch to a new PSA platform. So the car you see above will never happen. Which is weird since it seems so ready. they also… Continue reading PSA/Opel “merger” 1st casualty: The next Opel Corsa

201? Lucid Air pricing!
Quite amazingly, and surprisingly, Lucid Motors has already announced the price of their all new Lucid Air model. Which will be $52 500 for the base model ($60 000 before incentives). So it will be about $50 000 here in California. And even cheaper in a few other states. That is a lot cheaper than… Continue reading 201? Lucid Air pricing!

All new 2018 Buick Regal will not be a sedan in the US
That’s pretty amazing. I was also talking about this on my 2018 Accord Spy shot post.I think there is a market for mid-sized 4 door hatchbacks in the US. Ans someone should just start.it looks like Buick will be the one.Automobile News is reporting the new Regal will only be offered as a hatchback and wagon… Continue reading All new 2018 Buick Regal will not be a sedan in the US

2019 Porsche 911
Looks like it will look pretty futuristic.At least from the back. This really thin LED design really shows off what can be done these days.The current 911 looks great IMO. And still very modern. So this next one should be quite something.Head over HERE for more info. But especially, many more pictures of that prototype.

Look who is copying the Acura MDX
yet another Chinese company copying one of the most boring design around: Th eAcura MDX. Actually, this just looks “generic Acura design”. Why? is Acura that huge of a brand over there with an amazing image and cachet? This is so weird…

2018 Buick Enclave
it’s not much. But it’s looking quite good so far. The current model is 10 years old, so it’s about time. Especially in a world dominated bu SUVs. I test drove the Enclave years ago. (You can read the “old” review HERE) I remember liking it. Except it wouldn’t start on my last day… The new… Continue reading 2018 Buick Enclave

2018 Honda Accord
Nothing we have not seen yet. These prototypes are still all covered up. You can tell the silhouette is similar top the slick Civic. Which is almost a hatchback. Expect a downsize in engines . Following the usual trend, the V6 might just be replaced with a 2.0 Turbo. This will do battle with the… Continue reading 2018 Honda Accord
