• 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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 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

  • 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
