VW Atlas Cross Sport Concept
What a wonderful surprise this is. Not at all like the lame yellow thing I posted earlier. This is truly a very attractive design. Unfortunately, it is still labeled as a “Concept”. So who know what will stay on the production model. While I am sure the LED grille will go, they really need to… Continue reading VW Atlas Cross Sport Concept

VW Atlas Coupe
While VW continues to tease us with these exaggerated illustrations of an upcoming Atlas “coupe”, they have shown a new model in China that could be the real thing. (I mentioned this a few days ago. But these are newer pix.) Of course, this is not a coupe. But a 5 seater, shorter version of… Continue reading VW Atlas Coupe

All new 2019 Toyota Rav-4 teaser
You can watch these few precious seconds HERE. The quick new teaser shows how close the new Rav-4 is to the FT-AC concept we saw last year. Toyota is, for the first time, trying a totally new design direction for their best selling model. Which might be quite a gamble. And, I think a gutsy… Continue reading All new 2019 Toyota Rav-4 teaser

2019 Hyundai Tucson
The current Tucson is still one of the best looking compact SUVs out there. (red one) And got many good reviews when it came out. I just hope Hyundai will not ruin its design. That whole front end will be new. And resemble more the new Kona. Inside, it is rather puzzling. It looks like… Continue reading 2019 Hyundai Tucson

New Nissan Terra
We have seen the new Terra before, but here are some new pictures. This is NOT a replacement for our good old X-Terra. But so far only for a few Asian markets. And really, let’s hope this doesn’t come over here as a new version of the X-terra. This looks a bit sad. Like an… Continue reading New Nissan Terra

2019 Toyota Auris/Corolla wagon
Toyota has been offering a wagon version of the Auris for many years. (The current model is the blue one above) And it has always looked pretty nice. Competing in Europe with the super good looking Honda Civic “Tourer” wagon. But it has been a while since we have seen a Corolla wagon in the… Continue reading 2019 Toyota Auris/Corolla wagon

2019 Subaru Forester teaser.
An all new Forester is just days away now. From this teaser, it looks like it is adopting some small design cues from the Imprezza/Crosstrek with its rear lights sticking out a bit. The Forester has been quite a hit for Subaru. While being the most boring design ever, borderline on really ugly. So anything… Continue reading 2019 Subaru Forester teaser.

2019 Toyota Corolla sedan
These were sent to me and look like illustrations based on the new Corolla Hatchback. I am sure they are really close to the real thing. Since it seems like a no brainer to add a trunk to the new hatchback model. I prefer the hatchback, but as small sedans go, this isn’t so bad… Continue reading 2019 Toyota Corolla sedan

2018 Daimler Byd Denza 500
This isn’t really news. just an updated version (now with a 500Km range) of a car Daimler (Mercedes) has been producing in China with Byd. But the back weirdly reminds me of that old Renault 16 model from the 70’s. The 16 was briefly sold in the US I believe. And even produced in Canada… Continue reading 2018 Daimler Byd Denza 500

2019 Honda Insight
Sure, the new Insight looks a lot like the Civic it is based on (more on that later) But it looks like Honda was able to give it a more “grown up ” personality. That new interior is more like a small Acura than a Civic. And, as you can see, they were able to… Continue reading 2019 Honda Insight

2019 Porsche Mission E
Looks like the production version of the Mission E Electric car will be really close to the Concept. As expected. Since we have seen so many prototype pictures for a while now. Range is expected to be around 300 miles, with a starting price of slightly under $80 000. Which means it will go right… Continue reading 2019 Porsche Mission E

2019 Toyota Corolla hatchback details
The fact that we can even talk about “nice details” on a Corolla shows how much of an improvement this is over past versions. This IS quite a stylish car. I think Toyota should be praised for really trying. Without over doing it. Unlike what they did with the Lexus UX.

Buick Regal test drive coming up
I was really looking forward to driving this car, since I really liked the previous version of the Regal/Insignia. And now it’s a hatchback. The one I have for this week is a FWD Essence model with a 2.0 Liter Turbo and 9 speed automatic. So far, the ride is amazingly comfortable. But the USB/CarPlay… Continue reading Buick Regal test drive coming up

2019 VW Touareg
As mentioned before, we are not getting this. Of course. Since it is a real German VW… And it looks really good. I know the Touareg is a more expensive model than our Atlas. Still, just look at that interior. It is about 100 times nicer than the poor Atlas. Maybe some of its design… Continue reading 2019 VW Touareg

VW’s 2019 new SUVs
VW just had a presentation in China. Showing off “what’s next” for the Chinese market. Which basically means the US as well, since we are getting the same stuff. And that SUV above sure looks a lot like the teaser we saw just a few days ago. I mean, exactly. So this is the “smaller… Continue reading VW’s 2019 new SUVs

2019 Toyota Corolla Hatchback
In a very surprising move, Toyota has just unveiled the hatchback version of the next US Corolla. And not the sedan. Which shows the growing hatchback trend in the US. The hatch looks like it will be the sportier version of the Corolla (Although that base white car doesn’t look all that “sporty”) It is… Continue reading 2019 Toyota Corolla Hatchback

More pictures of the Acura CDX
I was just curious to see what the CDX looked like in other colors. Most pictures on the web are of that rose/gold color. I think it does look quite nice. And it is exactly what Acura needs right now. Again, the Lexus UX is coming out soon. And an all new Audi Q3 is… Continue reading More pictures of the Acura CDX

2019 Mercedes GLB
Looks like this will not be a smaller G class after all. Sure, it is more squared off than current sleeker Mercedes small SUVs. But more like a smaller GLS than a baby G. Which means it will compete also with the GLA or GLC??? These companies are putting out so many SUVS that are… Continue reading 2019 Mercedes GLB

Buick China
It is no secret that Buick is a huge hit in China. Has been for years now. While the brand sold about 220 000 cars in the US last year, (another 19 000 in Canada) they moved over 1.2 million cars in China! Where they have over 5% of the market. These are crazy numbers.… Continue reading Buick China
