2022 Kia K8: in the flesh…
I think the new Kia K8 looks fine in real-life photos. I even start getting used to the huge face. For some weird reason… Inside, I am still not a fan of that quilted pattern everywhere that some people view as “luxurious”. Otherwise, it does look the part for a large luxurious sedan. I do… Continue reading 2022 Kia K8: in the flesh…

MG X-Tender pick-up truck: the final insult…
That’s right. This is an MG pickup truck. MG is (was ) a legendary British car brand mostly known for its compact sports cars. The famous MGB was built from 1962 to 1995. Seeing the truck above with an MG bad is actually really weird. Sure, lots of sports car makers (soon, all of them)… Continue reading MG X-Tender pick-up truck: the final insult…

2022 Hyunda Staria: more pictures…
These are still computer-generated pictures of the new 20220 Hyundai Staria. But they look great. I am really looking forward to seeing the real thing in actual photos. But so far, the futuristic vibe is there, in a big way. A huge improvement over the competition like the Mercedes Metris. Or anything from Ford… Continue reading 2022 Hyunda Staria: more pictures…

Peugeot designs: how about some good looking ones…
While most current Peugeot designs are overworked and quite messy, this wasn’t always the case. Here are some of their really cool designs over the years. (At least the ones I really like) Even their version of the “boring midsize sedan” had a nice personality. (the 504 at the bottom) Of course, I realize… Continue reading Peugeot designs: how about some good looking ones…

2022 Peugeot 308: forced…
There seems to always be a problem with boring designs. When criticized too much, car makers just go nuts for the next generation. It looks like that’s what happened to the poor Peugeot 308. The previous (current) model was a pretty invisible design. And now we have this extremely overdone design for the new one.… Continue reading 2022 Peugeot 308: forced…

2022 Genesis G70 wagon: new photo…
This is, so far, the best look we have had of the new 2022 Wagon version of the revised Genesis G70 sedan. Not sure how they’ll end up calling it (sport, Sportwagon, etc…) but it will basically be a wagon. From this and previous photos we have seen, it will probably look really good. Genesis… Continue reading 2022 Genesis G70 wagon: new photo…

2022 BMW i4: official photos…
As mentioned earlier, the new i4 is basically an electric 3 series. With a fastback design similar to the upcoming 4 doors 4 series. Which is actually fine. Of course, it doesn’t look special. And the blue trim is really cheezy on this (It does look better on the i3) Still, the design is really… Continue reading 2022 BMW i4: official photos…

2022 Subaru WRX: so sad…
I know it is futile to keep hoping for a really cool Subaru design these days. But somehow, I am still shocked when I see things like this. (And I will settle for “decent”.) I know the WRX is a great driving car and has tons of hard-core followers. But why does it have… Continue reading 2022 Subaru WRX: so sad…

2022 Hyundai Tucson Plug-in Hybrid: official pix…
I am still wondering about the new Hyundai Tucson. Since I have never seen one in person yet. In-person, it could look wonderfully different, and futuristic. Or like a horrible mess. Who knows. The pictures above make it look quite disheveled. Unless it’s just from weird reflections? The Plug-in Tucson produces around 261HP (They’re not… Continue reading 2022 Hyundai Tucson Plug-in Hybrid: official pix…

2023 Lucid Gravity: patent designs…
The Gravity will be Lucid’s first SUV model, based on the Air sedan. We saw a few quick shots of it a few months ago when they unveiled the production version of the Air. And these patent designs show a production design very close to the concept. Except for the taller profile, which makes sense.… Continue reading 2023 Lucid Gravity: patent designs…

2022 BMW i4 teaser: the electric 4 series…
While BMW’s new iX EV has its own design, it looks like the new i4 EV sedan (top) will be an electrified version of the upcoming 4 Series Gran Coupe. (bottom) Considering how horrible the iX looks, it might actually not be such a bad idea. At least, the 4 doors 4 series is… Continue reading 2022 BMW i4 teaser: the electric 4 series…

2022 Acura MDX test drive: coming soon…
I will be driving the new Acura MDX this week. Feel free to ask anything you’d like to know about it. I have not even driven it yet. But so far, the interior is really nice. Not quite as busy as it looks in pictures I had seen…

2022 Mercedes EQS: new photos…
There is still a bit of camouflage, covering both front ends. And a few bits on the rear window. (Which will probably end up being black like the roof. At least it should…) Otherwise, this is the best look we have seen of Mercedes’s all-new EV. As mentioned before, it basically looks nothing like the… Continue reading 2022 Mercedes EQS: new photos…

2022 Kia EV6: first official photos…
That was quick. earlier today I was still posting spy shots of the 2022 Kia EV6, and now we have official pictures. I must say, I think it looks much better than any of the illustrations I have seen before. many were guessing some really weird design under the camouflage… The final product looks… Continue reading 2022 Kia EV6: first official photos…

2022 Hyundai Ioniq5: European pricing…
This is the official pricing for the new 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 in Germany. Which, at least over there, will come in Base, Plus, and Top versions. The base model is available in Short or long-range, but no AWD. It looks like Long Range adds about 3000 Euros. Same for AWD. And the base model… Continue reading 2022 Hyundai Ioniq5: European pricing…

2022 Kia EV6: new pix…
As we know, the new Kia EV6 will be the Kia version of the Hyundai Ioniq5. With a totally different design. Not sure if it will be priced higher or lower than the Hyundai model. (The Genesis version will be higher for sure) Hard to say how big it is, or if it is lower… Continue reading 2022 Kia EV6: new pix…

2022 Honda Civic sedan: base model pic and engine info…
This is a picture of the all-new 2022 Honda Civic sedan base model. Usually called LX in the US. As for engines, apparently, Honda will offer the same choice as the current generation. Which is a 2.0 Liter for the cheapest versions. With a 1.5 Liter Turbo starting with the EX. The current 1.5… Continue reading 2022 Honda Civic sedan: base model pic and engine info…

2022 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado: kind of new…
The Land Cruiser Prado is basically a “Smaller than Land Cruiser” Land Cruiser. Sold in many countries but not the US. We are getting a luxurious version of it here as the Lexus GX (bottom pic) It looks like it is getting a new front end for 2022. And maybe more? It’s hard to tell…… Continue reading 2022 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado: kind of new…

What could have been: AMC’s stillborn projects…
As we know, AMC was basically bought by Renault back in 1983. Then by Chrysler in 1987. To be renamed Eagle in 1988 and merged into Chrysler in 1990. Which is really too bad, since they really were ahead on many fronts. They were selling 4WD wagons and sedans in starting in 1979! Long… Continue reading What could have been: AMC’s stillborn projects…

2022 Ford Maverick: giving people what they want…
These new spy shots of the 2022 Ford Maverick show a much better-looking truck than any of the illustrations I’ve seen so far. Which is really good news. There is really nothing new about the styling, and this might be exactly what most buyers actually want. A compact pick-up that just looks like a… Continue reading 2022 Ford Maverick: giving people what they want…
