2022 Ford F-150 Lightning: the video…
I am not a truck person, and yet, I find this very, very impressive. I can only imagine how actual truck fans feel. Especially Ford truck fans. This is really the true beginning of the EV revolution. It will be very interesting to see how many of these they actually sell. And how many will… Continue reading 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning: the video…

2022 Ford F-150 Lightning: Best seller goes electric…
As I mentioned yesterday, an electric version of the best-selling vehicle in the US is huge news. And here it is. So far, there will be only one body style. 4 door with a 5.5-foot bed. The base model gets a 230 miles range. While a larger battery gets 300 miles. It uses a new… Continue reading 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning: Best seller goes electric…

New Honda HR-V Video: looking fine…
This is a real-life video of the all-new Honda HR-V for the overseas market. Of course, Honda has already said the US version will be different. But don’t expect another design or interior. The US model will be almost exactly the same as this one. (as usual) I think it does look fine in person.… Continue reading New Honda HR-V Video: looking fine…

2022 Chevrolet Silverado: meanwhile, at Chevy’s…
There will be no huge announcement from Chevrolet. Unlike the F-150 EV from Ford. Instead, we will be getting a mid-cycle facelift for the Silverado. (No hybrid or EV planned as far as I know…) As far as that facelift goes, I think the “Chevrolet” name looks better that the old logo. Otherwise, expect… Continue reading 2022 Chevrolet Silverado: meanwhile, at Chevy’s…

2022 Ford F150 Lightning: this is it…
While it will officially be unveiled tomorrow, Ford has already shown us the new Ford F-150 Lightning. It happened while President Biden was touring the Dearborn factory. It doesn’t take a genius to realize an Electric version of the best-selling vehicle in the US is a huge deal. Ford almost sold 900 000 of them… Continue reading 2022 Ford F150 Lightning: this is it…

2022 VW Teramont: new interior pix…
As I mentioned in the previous post, the Chinese version of the VW Atlas just received an all-new interior design. While our US Atlas has to soldier on with the lame interior from 2017. It looked old then and is really behind the times now. While the new Chinese interior is light years ahead… Continue reading 2022 VW Teramont: new interior pix…

2021/22 VW Teramont/Atlas: another new VW interior…
The VW Teramont is the Chinese version of our Atlas. It came out before the Atlas, in 2016. Our Atlas Cross Sport is called Teramont X over there. While both the Teramont and Atlas got a few changes for 2021, the Chinese model also got a heavily revised interior. (top pix) And it is a… Continue reading 2021/22 VW Teramont/Atlas: another new VW interior…

2022 VW Tiguan: new interior…
That’s right. The revised 2022 VW Tiguan is getting a “new” interior. At least an all-new dashboard. In China… As you can see (bottom pic) the US model is only getting small changes inside. Like trim and new climate controls. But the Chinese version (top) is getting an all-new dashboard. I guess you spend… Continue reading 2022 VW Tiguan: new interior…

2022 Kia K9/K900: the facelift…
Kia has finally revealed the revised version of their K9/K900 sedan. With all-new front and rear ends. Including a larger grille. Which now looks completely disproportionate. Since Kia stopped selling the K900 in the US, we will never see this. They had only sold 390 units of these in 2019. It seems they had vastly… Continue reading 2022 Kia K9/K900: the facelift…

Cadillac CT-5 Wagon: illustrations…
Of course, this looks pretty fantastic. And would be great to see. But these are only illustrations. A real Cadillac CT-5 wagon will not be happening. First, because the wagon market in the US is just too small. (The previous CTS wagon was quite a flop) And second, Cadillac announced a few weeks ago that… Continue reading Cadillac CT-5 Wagon: illustrations…

2022 Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-in Hybrid: coming soon…
When the new generation Mitsubishi Outlander came out recently, it didn’t include a Plug-in hybrid version. As the previous generation did. But the electrified new Outlander is actually coming soon. And it is rumored to have an EV range of over 60 miles. Even if the US rating ends up being closer to 50 miles,… Continue reading 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-in Hybrid: coming soon…

2022 BMW 7 series: new spy shot…
This photo doesn’t show us much more than what we’ve already seen of the next-generation BMW 7 series. What is interesting is that it comes with a bit of info about the 750e Plug-in hybrid version. Which is supposed to come with a 3.0 Liter engine and an electric motor for a total of… Continue reading 2022 BMW 7 series: new spy shot…

Lucid Air: I almost saw it…
I drove by the new Lucid showroom in Beverly Hills a couple of days ago. Of course, I decided to stop by and try to see the new EV in person. And, of course, it was closed… The showroom does look pretty fancy, as it should be. And the car, from behind the windows, looks… Continue reading Lucid Air: I almost saw it…

This is what the 2022 Wagon version of the Genesis G70 looks like, in black. So there…

2022 BMW 2 series Coupe: new pix…
The upcoming new BMW 2 series coupe for 2022 looks really good in these new camouflaged photos. It basically looks exactly like a BMW coupe should. With strong, elegant RWD proportions. The shape also seems pleasantly simple. Which is now unusual for BMW… These are spy shots from last year. Showing the same 2022… Continue reading 2022 BMW 2 series Coupe: new pix…

Next-generation Toyota Prius: early spy shots…
Apparently, this is a Toyota. Although it’s not the new EV that’s coming out next year. And from the front end, it does look like a Prius, doesn’t it… This would mean that, like everything else, the Prius would become a crossover. It started life as a small sedan. Then went to a larger hatchback… Continue reading Next-generation Toyota Prius: early spy shots…

Revised Ford Escort: more pictures…
As I mentioned earlier, the Chinese market Ford Escort has been revised. With mostly the usual new front and rear ends outside. The whole thing has a small Fusion vibe which is OK. But I really think the interior is quite surprising for a cheap entry-level sedan. Everything, at least on these photos, seems… Continue reading Revised Ford Escort: more pictures…

2022 Ford Evos: new pix…
I think the new Ford Evos looks pretty nice. In a weird way, it is a modern version of the Honda Crosstour. Which, along with the Acura ZDX, was ahead of its time. There is still a lot going on upfront. Scoops, black plastic crap, etc… But in that last pic, the 3rd version from… Continue reading 2022 Ford Evos: new pix…

Next BMW 5 series: another illustration…
I must say, all the recent illustrations of the next-generation BMW 5 series have been terrible. This one shows some weird brutalist design. With, of course, the giant bugs bunny grille. Surrounded by tons of black plastic crap. Let’s hope this is just a case of “lonely illustrator on crack”. And not an accurate depiction… Continue reading Next BMW 5 series: another illustration…

2022 Mercedes GLC: new illustration…
I guess the new GLC is scheduled to be the next new Mercedes we see. Unless the new SL beats it. The GLC is a very important car for Mercedes. As it is the brand’s most popular car in the US. At over $43 000 to start, it’s far from cheap. And quite expensive for… Continue reading 2022 Mercedes GLC: new illustration…
