2019 Toyota RAV-4
Just when you though the FT-AC Concept was a preview of a new crossover SUV from Toyota, it looks like it might actually be the next RAV-4… At least from the spy shots. The grille seems very similar. Flat hood. Even the wheels look inspired by the concept. If this is really the RAV-4, they… Continue reading 2019 Toyota RAV-4

Subaru Ascent commercial
They do know who is buying their cars. Lots of dog owners do. I think this is a great commercial for the Ascent. I also think this will be a very tough competition for the Highlander and Pilot. As “boring” as it is, the Ascent looks OK. With a fine interior.

2019 Honda HR-V
Looks like the cute little HR-V will be getting a new face soon. Not sure about anything else… Usually, there aren’t big news on mid-cycle refresh from Honda. So don’t expect more power or anything like that. It sure would be nice to get that panoramic sunroof option other markets have been getting for years…

VW T-Roc Vs. T-Cross
The picture on top is a new VW SUV. And I don’t think it is the T-Roc. (the one in blue) The console is different. There are vents right above it in the spy picture. Interior door handle/panel is also different, etc… VW’s next compact SUV will be production version of the T-Cross. And it… Continue reading VW T-Roc Vs. T-Cross

2019 Mini EV
Mini did produce an EV version of the Mini a few years ago. But it was more like an experiment. (I think the batteries were also taking the space of the rear seat.) Now they have announced last year that a “real Mini EV’ was coming out. They even had a concept version. Here is… Continue reading 2019 Mini EV

2018/19 Peugeot 508
The current 508 sedan design has never grown on me. I have seen it in person a few times when traveling to Europe, and it always just looks so generic to me. It looks like it’s trying “something”. But I’m not sure what. (Their older designs from Pininfarina like the 505 or 604 were so… Continue reading 2018/19 Peugeot 508

New range Rover SV Coupe coming up
I thought his was a joke at first. A 2 door version of the current Range Rover seems a bit weird. Also the current model is already almost 6 years old. So why a new body style after all that time? The top picture is an official teaser for the coupe version interior. And they… Continue reading New range Rover SV Coupe coming up

2018 VW Up GTI
Just a few more pictures of that cute GTI version of the VW Up. The one we can’t have here in the US. The Up has been on sale in Europe since 2011. So it took a while (to say the least) for VW to come up with a GTI version. All models have small… Continue reading 2018 VW Up GTI

Better pictures of the Jeep Grand Commander
Already better looking in color. I still think there would be a market for this in the US. This isn’t worse looking than a Honda Pilot or Toyota Highlander. There would be room for this between the $25 000 Cherokee and the $31 000 Grand Cherokee. Nissan has both the Murano and the Pathfinder. So… Continue reading Better pictures of the Jeep Grand Commander

2019 Kia Telluride
As you can see, Kia is actually now testing a production version of the large Telluride Concept SUV from 2016. (Bottom picture is the concept) And it already does look pretty close to the concept. Maybe a bit longer. And a bit less aggressive and square. Otherwise, this could be interesting. It probably shares its… Continue reading 2019 Kia Telluride

Tesla Semi truck driving down the street…
This is very short, so don’t blink. The new Tesla truck actually looks like a prop from a Science Fiction movie. especially when driving down a city street like this. It does look weird, in a delicious futuristic way. They claim to have over 1500 reservations for the truck. Which would be great. I’m just… Continue reading Tesla Semi truck driving down the street…

Jeep Grand Commander
I guess you would call these a “teaser”. Or “Official illustrations”. So they are of course a bit exaggerated. But not that much. As we have seen the real thing just a few days ago HERE I thing the new Grand Commander will end up being quite decent looking. Unlike the base white model pix… Continue reading Jeep Grand Commander

Revisions for the Peugeot 308
The 308 is Peugeot’s answer to the VW Golf. it came out a few years ago, and got a few revisions for 2017. So it’s a little strange to see more changes so quickly. (At least not he Chinese market model pictured in red) Inside, it looks completely different. Except for the doors (Current model… Continue reading Revisions for the Peugeot 308

2019 Fiat 500X
The beige car is the current model, so you can see there won’t be many changes for the new year. Mostly the lights. At least on this rear view. Expect new bumpers and lights up front. And a larger screen inside. Just like it’s Jeep Renegade cousin. Fiat updated the lights of the “regular” small… Continue reading 2019 Fiat 500X

2018 VW Up GTI
The VW Up is a tiny car. Until you compare it with the first generation Golf that is. In these pictures, VW shows us the new GTI version of the Up, next to the original Golf GTI. The new one has 115HP. Compared to 110 from the original (It was less in the US) And… Continue reading 2018 VW Up GTI

2019 BMW Z4: major disappointment coming up..
Just like Subaru, BMW has become one of these car companies that show us really nice concepts that end up being quite disappointing when turned into production models. We first saw pictures of the new 8 series (HERE) in production form. Which lost all the cool aspects of the concept. Now this. The new Z4… Continue reading 2019 BMW Z4: major disappointment coming up..

2019 Jeep Renegade interior
While I did post exterior and interior pictures of the revised 2019 Renegade HERE, today we have more. And, as you can see, there isn’t that much new inside for the Renegade. (Spy pic is on top) Mostly a larger screen. Thanks to a new plastic piece around it, it fits exactly where the old… Continue reading 2019 Jeep Renegade interior

2019 Toyota Auris/Corolla iM
This actually looks promising. Maybe. I do like these super wide LED lights up front. It also looks a bit sportier than the current model, sold here as the iM. Inside, we have another sad case of the “tablet sticking out” . Which is too bad. Let’s hope that maybe, just maybe, this is the… Continue reading 2019 Toyota Auris/Corolla iM

All new Datsun Cross
Nissan revived the Datsun brand to sell super low cost modes in emerging countries. So none of these are good looking. But they are super cheap. (Their little “Go” hatchback is around $7000) But this new “SUV” is particularly ugly. Even for a cheap brand. It will start at around $12 000 when it goes… Continue reading All new Datsun Cross

2019 Hyundai Nexo in beautiful “BurlappVision”
I do like the Nexo quite a bit. I know the design doesn’t seem to be the most popular on this site. But I like it, and the interior too. This would be a great every day Crossover. Especially in the Los Angeles area, where most of the refueling stations seem to be. (As I… Continue reading 2019 Hyundai Nexo in beautiful “BurlappVision”
