Toyota Venza: new face already?
The top photo shows a Chinese market version of the Toyota Venza. With a new face. Which, I think, is a step back from what we have here. The Venza came out in the US just a bit over a year ago, and I really don’t think it will be getting any changes for a… Continue reading Toyota Venza: new face already?

2022 Chevrolet Silverado: that mid-cycle refresh…
GM has been talking about a revised Silverado almost since the day it came out. The current generation was immediately criticized for being too much like the previous version. And it was. To me, every time I drive one of these, I am surprised how much they are the same… I haven’t driven the Ram… Continue reading 2022 Chevrolet Silverado: that mid-cycle refresh…

2023/24 new Hyundai Ioniq models: new spy shot…
Hyundai has released a new teaser for the next 2 models of their all-electric Ioniq line. As you can see, the upcoming “Large SUV” is getting a very modern design (And no name yet. So it might not be called Ioniq 7 after all) While it seems we will be seeing a “concept” version of… Continue reading 2023/24 new Hyundai Ioniq models: new spy shot…

2022 Integra: the Chinese version…
As you can see, this is not the upcoming Acura Integra. It looks like Honda is just using the name “Integra” for its 4 door Civic in China. The car is basically the same as our Civic sedan, except for a redesigned front end. Which, I think, actually looks a bit cleaner and more modern.… Continue reading 2022 Integra: the Chinese version…

2022 Mazda CX-5: not new…
That’s right, this is NOT the all-new RWD Mazda CX-5 we have all been waiting for. Instead, it looks like Mazda is giving the current generation a facelift. As you can see, it is basically redesigned lights and bumper. For a cleaner, simpler look. Which is just fine. But does it also mean the new… Continue reading 2022 Mazda CX-5: not new…

All-new Dodge Journey: new spy shots and teaser…
While there have been recent talks and rumors about a small Dodge Hornet crossover (Including a PHEV model), I hadn’t heard of a new Dodge Journey. At least not that early. Not before the Hornet. So these are really surprising to me. Especially the first picture, showing the finished model. Maybe it is a European… Continue reading All-new Dodge Journey: new spy shots and teaser…

2022/23 Lexus LX: new illustrations…
Just when you thought the Lexus LX couldn’t get uglier, here we go! These illustrations show what would happen if Lexus designers all got high and drunk while designing the next-generation LX SUV. Let’s hope they took a break, and the real thing looks a bit better. The new LX will, as usual, be based… Continue reading 2022/23 Lexus LX: new illustrations…

2022 Toyota Corolla Cross: hybrid version…
At least from the photos, I am not a big fan of the new 2022 Toyota Cross. It tries really hard to look like a small RAV-4, and somehow, fails. With its huge grille, it just looks too weird and heavy-handed. I think the RAV-4 actually looks much better… A hybrid version (pictured above) is… Continue reading 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross: hybrid version…

VW ID.Life Concept: lifeless…
What do you get when you tell your designers to come up with the most generic car design ever and order them to take any sign of life out of that design? (Yet, you call it “LIfe”.) This is what you get: the new VW ID.Life Concept. This is just sad. many have tried the… Continue reading VW ID.Life Concept: lifeless…

2023 VW ID.Buzz: first video walk around!
Of course, this is very early, and the 2023 ID-Buzz is still covered in camouflage. But you can really tell how large it will be. And how amazingly roomy. I hope they increase the range from the current 250 miles of the ID.4. This could really become the coolest minivan available. With a simple, classy… Continue reading 2023 VW ID.Buzz: first video walk around!

2023 Mercedes EQE: small EQS…
In true Mercedes fashion, the new 2023 EQE electric sedan looks almost exactly the same as the larger EQS. Just like the C-Class, E-Class and S-Class have basically the same design in different sizes. Their “one design fits all” philosophy now applies to their electric sedans as well. Which is really a bit too bad.… Continue reading 2023 Mercedes EQE: small EQS…

2022 Toyota Tundra: in the wild…
These are all-new photos of the 2022 redesigned Toyota Tundra. (Although we have seen it before HERE) It almost looks like a Chevrolet Silverado outside. Since the Chevrolet is also getting a new interior for next year, we’ll have to wait if the new Tundra is also similar to the Silverado inside. The new Tundra… Continue reading 2022 Toyota Tundra: in the wild…

2023 Acura Integra: new spy shot…
Since this was apparently caught around Columbus Ohio, this could be the all-new 2023 Acura Integra. From what we can see here, it is basically a 4 door hatchback model based on the new Honda Civic. Which is what the old Integras were in the first place. Although, in “the old days”, the Civic hatch… Continue reading 2023 Acura Integra: new spy shot…

2022 VW Tiguan: US Vs. China…
The VW Tiguan received a few (small) modifications for the 2022 model year. Previously in Europe and now in the US for 2022. But it looks like the Chinese market version got an all-new dashboard the rest of the world didn’t get (As mentioned a while ago) The top part of the dash seems the… Continue reading 2022 VW Tiguan: US Vs. China…

AION V Plus: a larger battery…
The Aion V is a Chinese EV that came out last year. Not the company has unveiled the “Plus” model with a larger battery, rated at about 276 Miles in the Chinese cycle. Which is not bad at all. This kind of looks like a “Chinese Bolt” to me. (It is actually about 16 inches… Continue reading AION V Plus: a larger battery…

2023/24 Maserati Quattroporte: new illustration…
Who knows if this is close to reality or not. But it shows a next-generation Maserati Quattroporte morphing into a luxury hatchback competing with the Porsche Panamera. I guess why not. Although I am really not sure Maserati would make such a drastic change to their famous sedan… What do you think?

2022 Honda Passport: new illustration…
This wasn’t hard to guess. We have seen the spy shot (HERE) of the revised Honda Passport for 2022. And basically, it is the good old Passport with a Ridgeline front end. So here it is. I really don’t think the new front end does anything to help the Passport. The rest of the car… Continue reading 2022 Honda Passport: new illustration…

2023 Mercedes EQE: more teasers…
These new teasers show, again, how similar the new Mercedes EQE will be to the recently introduced larger EQS. To most people, these cars will basically look the same. Only owners and Mercedes fans will really be able to tell the difference in real life. And, again, interiors are basically the same too. Mercedes has… Continue reading 2023 Mercedes EQE: more teasers…

2023 Mercedes EQE: the smaller one…
So far, the upcoming Mercedes EQE sedan is on track to look a lot like its larger sibling, the EQS. (We already know the interior is practically lifted from the EQS.) As you can see above, the profiles are also very, very similar. Although it seems the smaller EQE will have a trunk instead of… Continue reading 2023 Mercedes EQE: the smaller one…

2022 Hyundai Casper: one cute little thing…
One design department that is NOT on Auto-Pilot is Hyundai. They have been coming out with tons of original designs. Some end up a bit weird, but at least they are really trying something new most of the time. Case and point: this new little Hyundai Casper. Proving that a super cheap model doesn’t have… Continue reading 2022 Hyundai Casper: one cute little thing…
