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…

2022 Genesis G70 Wagon: in the flesh…
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…

2022 Genesis G70 Shooting Brake: no surprises…
After so many spy shots and illustrations for so long, the new 2022 Wagon version of the Genesis G70 doesn’t surprise anyone. It’s fine… The horrible red interior and black wheels don’t help either (Tt’s just a personal taste…). As everything has to be introduced as super sporty these days. Specs are the same as… Continue reading 2022 Genesis G70 Shooting Brake: no surprises…

2022 VW Tiguan: few changes…
The VW Tiguan is getting a few changes for 2022. Mostly a new front end and some trim bits. The interior seems to be pretty much the same as before. And it was already very “conservative” 4 years ago. There’s some new tech and safety stuff of course. LED headlights are now standard. VW’s… Continue reading 2022 VW Tiguan: few changes…

2022 BMW X1: new illustration…
I guess there is another BMW X1 on its way. It’s hard to keep track of all these BMW SUVs these days. There’s always a new one “on the way”, and they all look the same to me… Sales of the smallest BMW SUV went down pretty sharply lately. From a hight of almost… Continue reading 2022 BMW X1: new illustration…

2023 Subaru Solterra: teasers…
The 2023 Subaru Solterra will be Subaru’s 1st EV. And is being “developed” with Toyota. In this case, “developed with…” is code for “they’re the same car”. As you can see from the teaser above compared to the Toyota BZ4X, the 2 cars are much more than just similar. They are basically the same car.… Continue reading 2023 Subaru Solterra: teasers…

Mercedes Concept EQT: Vs. Renault Kangoo..
Mercedes has been selling a Renault Kangoo clone in Europe for a while. Called the Citan. Since a redesigned Kangoo came out, Mercedes is teasing their new model, still based on the Renault. The Kangoo is basically Renault’s equivalent to the Ford Transit Connect. A small cargo van also available as a more family-oriented… Continue reading Mercedes Concept EQT: Vs. Renault Kangoo..

2022 BMW 2 series Coupe: new photos…
These new photos show a bit more of the all-new BMW 2 series coupe for 2022. The RWD proportions are great. The whole thing seems to have a classic BMW style. Frameless windows hint at the return of a convertible version. Although I had heard earlier that the new generation could actually only be offered… Continue reading 2022 BMW 2 series Coupe: new photos…

2022 Honda Civic: the lighter interior color…
So far, I had only seen photos of the black interior for the new 2022 Honda Civic sedan. These pix show what the new interior looks like with the light beige/cream option. (I am personally not a fan of black interiors in general) I think it does look quite nice. Although I have to… Continue reading 2022 Honda Civic: the lighter interior color…

Honda N7X Concept: Vs. next-generation CR-V…
I am not saying the new Honda N7X concept is the next CR-V. But it looks pretty close… The new N7X concept is previewing a new 7 seater model for the Indonesian market. (And probably India as well.) While the next CR-V will not seat 7, the concept’s design looks pretty close to the… Continue reading Honda N7X Concept: Vs. next-generation CR-V…

Bob’s Big Boy Friday cars: alive and well in Burbank…
Last night was my first time back in over a year. The Friday car night at Bob’s Big Boy in Burbank was as fun as ever. With plenty of beautiful old metal…
