  • 2018 Kia KX Cross

    Another cute little Kia. This time for the Chinese market. It is about 3 inches longer than the all new Stonic. And is powered by a similar 1.4 Liter engine with 6 speed (manual or auto) So this is probably a more boring version of the Stonic for the Chinese market. The interior design is… Continue reading 2018 Kia KX Cross

  • 2018 Porsche Cayenne

    Just got this so I though I would share it. It does look like the new Cayenne alright. Basically, the new Cayenne is expected to look like a cross between the current model and the new Panamera wagon. So this is pretty much it. This is pretty much the 3rd version of a very similar… Continue reading 2018 Porsche Cayenne

  • 2018 VW T-Roc

    I have to say, this is one of the nicest looking VW I have seen in many years. Engaging and fun. Interior is OK. I am not crazy about color plastic bits. Unlike the Beetle, this just looks like an after though (“Hey it’s pretty serious in here, let’s color this, and that…”) And, at… Continue reading 2018 VW T-Roc

  • 2019 Chevrolet Blazer

    Chevrolet will be adding another SUV between the Traverse and the Equinox. (and why not…) The 5 seater Blazer. Competing directly with the Ford Edge. Apparently, it will offer a 4 cylinder and a V6 as an option (The old fashion way) As you can see, this already looks more angular than the other SUVs… Continue reading 2019 Chevrolet Blazer

  • Another new Nissan Leaf Teaser.

    Now with “Zero” Emission. (At least, that’s what the misguided/misdesigned logo seems to be saying…) We know it has new body panels, a revised (not all new) interior. And it can park itself. Otherwise, still a mystery about range. Although there should be two different levels of battery packs offered. Now the new Nissan Leaf… Continue reading Another new Nissan Leaf Teaser.

  • Not a happy ending…

    Or would it be? Sergio Marchionne is obviously the worst guy to head a car company. So if it takes a new owner to get a decent guy in charge, that wouldn’t be the worst thing. But if Jeep is sold to China, what will happen to the other guys? Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat and Alfa.… Continue reading Not a happy ending…

  • Great Wall wants to buy Jeep

    Out of all Chinese car makers copying foreign designs, Great Wall is one of the worst offenders. All of the above cars are almost complete copies of other designs. And they don’t care. Never did. Now, they are apparently the only Chinese brand interested in Jeep. But only Jeep. They don’t want Fiat, Dodge or… Continue reading Great Wall wants to buy Jeep

  • VW ID Buzz coming in 2022

    This is now the third time (or is it 4th??)  VW is teasing us with a modern version of the Microbus. All looked great. None were ever approved for production. Now they claim this is it. We are really, really making this one. In 4 years! 4 years is a long time. Long enough for… Continue reading VW ID Buzz coming in 2022

  • 2018 BMW M5

    After spending a whole day test driving BMWs a few weeks ago, I am not a great fan. So really, I don’t have any interest in this 600HP M5 version coming out soon. This seems to only be produced as a way to advertise the brand. Get magazines to review it etc… (While journalists are… Continue reading 2018 BMW M5

  • Acura TLX-L

    Of course there is a long wheelbase version of the refreshed Acura TLX in China. Since there seems to be a LWB version of everything there. And why not. These want to be luxury cars and rear leg room is indeed a nice luxury. I really think this would have made much more sense for… Continue reading Acura TLX-L

  • 2018 Hyundai Veloster

    This is one car I though would not see a second generation. And yet… I guess sale numbers are enough to produce an all new one. Around 30 000 last year in the US (Vs around 24 000 in 2015) And why not. It’s actually good to see someone still producing an affordable sporty and… Continue reading 2018 Hyundai Veloster

  • 2018 Audi A1

     As you can see this is just an illustration. But there is an all new A1 coming out next year. It’s really not that difficult to guess what it will look like (like all Audi designs) Just shrink the Q5 to the size of an A1.. Since we don’t get the A1 in the US,… Continue reading 2018 Audi A1

  • BMW Z4 Concept

    Not sure what a concept at this time, since the production model seems ready to go. But why not, I guess. Let’s just hope most of this concept makes it into the production car. Except the obvious, like door handles, a taller windshield, a top etc… BMW has managed to keep all generations of the… Continue reading BMW Z4 Concept

  • BMW Z4 Concept

    We all know the new Z4 is pretty much ready to go. So I am not sure why BMW would even show a concept. Same thing with the new 8 series. These concepts are probably just a bit nicer looking than the production models. Just enough to make the production ones a bit lame. Either… Continue reading BMW Z4 Concept
