2018 Hyundai Accent
Just like most new Hyundai Designs, there is nothing original here. But in the case of the Accent, it seems just fine. The current model starts at under $15 000. So we are talking about entry level here. Nissan Versa territory. This already looks 1000 times better than the Versa. (At least the top of… Continue reading 2018 Hyundai Accent

2019 Porsche 911 Interior
So far, it looks like a cross between the current car and the newer models like the Panamera and Cayenne. As expected. Unfortunately, it also looks like most of the gauges, except the tach, have been replaced by digital screens. Not sure how that will fly with sports cars purists… More pictures of the all… Continue reading 2019 Porsche 911 Interior

More pictures of the Chinese Buick Excelle wagon
The more I see this, the more I actually like it. I think this would make a great little brother to the upcoming Regal TourX in the US. Competing mainly with the rather popular VW Golfwagen. It looks pretty good, has a very nice (Opel Astra) interior. Why not?

Subaru Viziv Performance Concept
Looks like Subaru is running out of names for their concepts. Seems like everything is Viziv “something” these days. I guess this is supposed to give us an early look at the next WRX. Or something like it. Some small sporty sedan with bulging fenders, skirts, wings etc… Subaru has a very long history of… Continue reading Subaru Viziv Performance Concept

2018 Citroen Cactus
it looks like, not only the Cactus will loose its cool/original air bumps on the doors. But it will get a more conservative front end design as well. With chrome lines surrounding the Citroen logo. Mimicking a thin grille. More in line with the C4 Picasso. Wich is too bad. ( I hate fake grilles…)… Continue reading 2018 Citroen Cactus

The 1100 miles Electric Bus!
I know it sounds pretty crazy. But Proterra has been able to squeeze 1100 miles on a single charge while testing their new Electric Bus. it is really amazing. Even if the real world number drops to around 900 or even a bit less. This is quite an achievement. And it takes about 5 hrs… Continue reading The 1100 miles Electric Bus!

All new Volvo XC40
I think this looks really good! Actually much more original than the XC60 or the old fashion XC90. I just hope that you can order a different finish inside. That “metal look” is a bit cheasy and cheap looking on these pix. (The mat finish wood on their other models looks so good, this is… Continue reading All new Volvo XC40

More pictures of the new 2018 Buick Verano/Excelle wagon
The new Chinese market Buick Excelle is what we would have had over here if Buick had decided to keep selling the Verano in the US. it would have been the second generation for us. A popular car in China, the compact sedan is now getting a wagon version. Which I guess would have competed… Continue reading More pictures of the new 2018 Buick Verano/Excelle wagon

2018 Audi Q8 Interior
It looks like the production version the Q8 (top pic) will stay pretty close to last year’s concept.Not surprises here, since that “concept’ was just the already designed production car with a few “wilder” bits added. The exterior design was just what to expect from Audi, which is a larger version of the A4… Continue reading 2018 Audi Q8 Interior

Mitsubishi E-Volution Concept
Of course, they are “playing” with the legendary Evo name here. E-volution…. This looks to be a 4 door SUV type thing. Seems that, within the giant Nissan/Renault/Mitsubishi conglomerate, Mitsubishi will be the SUV company. At least they should all be sporty. This concept might be showing the company’s new direction, sporty electrified SUVs. Why… Continue reading Mitsubishi E-Volution Concept

2018 Volvo XC40
Looks like Volvo did quite an amazing job translating last year’s concept into the production XC40. (Production model is the top picture) I though the camouflaged prototypes were still hiding a concealed rear door handle but I was obviously wrong. So far, this looks really good, and should be quite a hit for Volvo. More… Continue reading 2018 Volvo XC40

2018 Genesis G70
It does look nice and upscale. But also like a blend of everything else. Mostly a cross between Infiniti Q50 and Lexus IS. With a few lines added here and there. Interior is also very generic. And I am getting tired of that “satin” finish everywhere. I think it’s time for something new. Also the… Continue reading 2018 Genesis G70

Mazda CX-8
The new Mazda CX-8 is, so far, still for Japan only. It is not a slightly sleeker CX-9. But a longer 3 row version of the CX-5. (Which could work for Europe as well. Better than the larger CX-9) So basically, interior is very similar to the CX-5. With more seats. It is also available… Continue reading Mazda CX-8

Buick Verano Wagon
Another Opel based Buick for China only. Buick sold the previous generation verano in the US. But never replaced it. Chine got an all new model a couple of years ago, still based on the Opel Astra, but this time with a much more different design. As it didn’t really look like an Astra sedan… Continue reading Buick Verano Wagon
