2022 Porsche Macan: why?
Porsche just revised the Macan SUV. And I’m not sure why. Sure, it does look a little bit different (The orange one is the “new” one) But I don’t think it’s an improvement. At least they didn’t ruin it. (maybe they did for some?) Inside the console looks cleaner. Otherwise, it’s the same thing. Al… Continue reading 2022 Porsche Macan: why?

2022 Toyota Aqua (Prius C): official pix…
Even though the previous generation left the US in 2019, it has been a big hit for Toyota with over 1.8 million sold around the world. The new model is based on the same platform as the new Yaris. And Toyota claims it is 20% more efficient. Which would mean about 57 City/52 Hwy in… Continue reading 2022 Toyota Aqua (Prius C): official pix…

2023 Kia Telluride: first spy shots…
The Kia Telluride is arguably one of the best-looking SUVs on sale today. And it is very popular. (It is apparently still pretty hard to get one these days) Which is great for Kia. As we have already seen spy shots of the revised 2023 Hyundai Palisade, it was just a matter of time… Continue reading 2023 Kia Telluride: first spy shots…

2022/23 Hyundai Ioniq 6: new spy shots…
The only thing we know about the all-new Ioniq 6 i that it won’t look anything like the cool Prophecy concept. Which is really too bad. But if you forget the Prophecy, the Ioniq 6 could still be a decent-looking sedan. Probably one of these fastback designs with a tiny trunk opening though… The interior… Continue reading 2022/23 Hyundai Ioniq 6: new spy shots…

New Smart SUV: new teaser…
Smart just released a new teaser for their upcoming SUV. (The bottom pic was released earlier) It will be unveiled in September as a concept. So we can expect a production version sometime next year. The new small EV SUV will be based on a new Geely platform. That same platform will also be used… Continue reading New Smart SUV: new teaser…

2022 Ranger Rover Evoque L: Make room! Make room!
We all knew it was coming: a longer wheelbase version of the compact Range Rover Evoque for China. I really like the Evoque design, and so far, the longer version still looks really good. It is about 6 inches longer and adds 5 inches of rear legroom. Not sure if the “L” version will… Continue reading 2022 Ranger Rover Evoque L: Make room! Make room!

2022 Nissan Frontier/Pathfinder Production: video from the factory…
These factory videos are always pretty fascinating to me. Especially seeing a brand new model being built. My favorites are the ones where you actually see the sheets of metal being stamped into body parts. This one starts a bit after that. It all looks like putting together a giant model kit…

2023/24 Toyota Prius: new illustration…
A new generation Toyota Prius is now scheduled to be introduced in January 2023. It is also supposed to be based on a revised version of the current TNGA platform. And will retain the 1.8 Liter engine. The current battery pack would also return. But the engine itself will be modified to be even… Continue reading 2023/24 Toyota Prius: new illustration…

New VW Lamando: a look inside…
I recently posted photos of the redesigned VW Lamando for the Chinese market (HERE) Today we get to see the interior. Which follows the current trend. Such a trend that it seems everyone is designing the same dashboards these days. A basic dash with horizontal vents and some widescreen on top of it. It… Continue reading New VW Lamando: a look inside…

Next-generation BMW 5 series: new illustrations…
These new illustrations show what an electric version of the next 5 series could look like. (i5?) I am sure this is actually pretty close since BMW has been pretty predictable for a while now (Except for some of their horrible details) And it does seem to match the recent spy shots we have… Continue reading Next-generation BMW 5 series: new illustrations…

2022 VW GTI: the US version is finally here…
The current generation VW Golf was introduced back in October 2019. As usual with VW, we are only getting it over here a year and a half later… And, we are only getting the GTI and R models. As the regular Golf is no longer offered in the US. I have been a big fan… Continue reading 2022 VW GTI: the US version is finally here…

2022 Mercedes SL: Now the “AMG-SL”…
Mercedes just released a bunch of pictures showing the interior of the all-new SL replacement. The AMG-SL. I guess they wanted to give it more of a sporty vibe by associating it with AMG. On top of that, the new model actually replaces the AMG GT Roadster as well. While it might be sportier… Continue reading 2022 Mercedes SL: Now the “AMG-SL”…

2022 Jeep Compass: finally…
Most of the world has had the revised Compass for months now. But it is just being introduced in the US now, as a 2022 model. (Also strange Jeep could only release what looks like computer-generated pix of the new interior since it’s been out elsewhere for so long) As we mentioned before, the new… Continue reading 2022 Jeep Compass: finally…

2022 VW Lamando: Jetta’s nicer brother…
While the front end almost looks weird for a VW (only because we are so used to the total lack of personality in their other designs) but I do like it more than our Jetta. The new Lamando shares its platform with the Jetta (like most other VWs) But it does seem more modern and… Continue reading 2022 VW Lamando: Jetta’s nicer brother…

2022 Infiniti QX60 pricing: going after the MDX…

2022 Opel Astra: more pix…
Just a few more photos of the new Opel Astra for 2022. The more I see it the more I like it. Too bad there is no way this is coming here. Plus, small hatchbacks aren’t the most popular things in the US these days. It seems Opel has finally found a very nice design… Continue reading 2022 Opel Astra: more pix…

2022 Opel Astra: all-new generation…
Opel just revealed the all-new generation of the Astra compact. As you know, it shares its platform with the new Peugeot 308. And, as you can see above, the Opel has a much cleaner design than the Peugeot. Which looks like quite a mess. Especially when compared to its German cousin. The Peugeot is just… Continue reading 2022 Opel Astra: all-new generation…

Mazda MX-30 PHEV: another one bites the dust…
After launching the pure electric version of the new MX-30 overseas, Mazda had just announced weeks ago that a PHEV version would be coming to the US. Using a small rotary engine as a generator. Since the EV model has a modest (lame) electric range of only 124 miles, the Plug-in hybrid version promise a… Continue reading Mazda MX-30 PHEV: another one bites the dust…

Next-generation Range Rover Sport: new illustration…
There have been many spy shots of the 2022/23 range Rover Sport around. And they pretty much all look very similar to the upcoming redesigned Range Rover. Right now, the regular Range Rover and the Sport do have different designs. But it seems they might be closer related for the next generation. Basically turning the… Continue reading Next-generation Range Rover Sport: new illustration…

2022 Genesis G90: new illustration…
This new illustration is guessing the 2022 G90 could basically look like an oversized G70 sedan. hard to see any of the profile from this angle, but the more rounded front end seems to match the recent spy shots we have seen of the redesigned S-Class fighter.
