All-new Hyundai Mistranslating: new sedan for China
Hyundai will be introducing yet another sedan for the Chinese market. The new Mistra. Which seems quite conservative. Almost looking like a small Genesis G90 from some angles. With rear lights a little bit similar to the current Sonata and a grille from the previous one. Interestingly enough, they will also introduce a full-electric… Continue reading All-new Hyundai Mistranslating: new sedan for China

2022 Jeep Compass: improved interior…
This is the Chinese market version of the 2022 Jeep Compass. But similar changes are expected for the US model. At least visually, like the new grille and interior. The Chinese version uses a 1.3 Liter Turbo engine. Probably the same one uses in the Fiat 500X over here. Not sure yet if that… Continue reading 2022 Jeep Compass: improved interior…

2021 Lincoln Nautilus: new dash for the “old guy”…
The Lincoln Nautilus is getting a refresh for the new model year. Nothing drastic outside. Things seem a little cleaner upfront. The big changes are inside. Where it is getting an all-new interior. Similar to the current Lincoln interior theme. And very close to the one in the larger Aviator. I am glad to… Continue reading 2021 Lincoln Nautilus: new dash for the “old guy”…

2022 Honda Civic: profiles…
Just thought I would compare the new 2022 Honda Civic sedan profile to its competition. As well as the current Civic and Accord. I think the 3-year-old Accord still looks much better. The new Civic is a bit simpler, but much less expressive IMO. As for the current Civic, it is a super popular model… Continue reading 2022 Honda Civic: profiles…

2022 Chevrolet Bolt: not all-new…
As expected, the 2022 Chevrolet Bolt will not be an all-new car. But I didn’t expect the whole front end to look that different. (bottom pic is the current model) It seems much more modern, almost futuristic. Although the trim/vents on the side of the bumper remind me of some Opel design from a… Continue reading 2022 Chevrolet Bolt: not all-new…

2022 Jeep Compass: next to the current one…
As you can see on these photos from the Guangzhou Auto Show in China, the revised 2022 Jeep Compass looks almost exactly the same as the current version. Basically what Jaguar just did with the XF and F-Pace. Leaving the exterior alone (mostly) and concentrating on a brand new, 1000% better interior. Which is a… Continue reading 2022 Jeep Compass: next to the current one…

2022 Jeep Compass: some teasers…
A revised Jeep Compass is supposed to go on sale early next year. From the teasers above, it looks like the front end, although modified, will be very familiar. The big changes are inside. Where the interior seems all-new. (At least the dashboard). And much, much nicer than before. At least on these teaser photos,… Continue reading 2022 Jeep Compass: some teasers…

2022 Citroen C5: new illustration…
Citroen has not had a proper top of the line sedan in years. Basically, since the previous C5 went out of production in 2017. I know they do have other fancy models but the larger sedan was never really replaced (unless you include th new DS9) Citroen has hinted many times at a C5… Continue reading 2022 Citroen C5: new illustration…

2022 Kia K7: a look inside…
While we have seen quite a few pictures of the exterior (HERE), these are the first ones I have seen of the all-new Kia K7 interior. Besides looking super roomy, its door panels design seem really interesting. And quite original. It seems Kia will at least try to offer something different. With just 1577… Continue reading 2022 Kia K7: a look inside…

Kia K7: New logo…
The new K7 sedan will (finally) be introducing the all-new Kia logo. We have seen it a while ago, but not on a production model yet. The K7 sedan will replace the good old Cadenza (also known by many of us as the “Costanza” in our market) Not sure yet if the K7 will… Continue reading Kia K7: New logo…

2022 Honda Civic: video…
Interesting video about the design process of the next-generation Honda Civic. As well as a little bit of the general history of previous Civic generations. But warning! This video contains a lot of PR BS. Basically describing this car as the second coming. Even though its design will probably go down in history as one… Continue reading 2022 Honda Civic: video…

2022 Subaru BRZ: improving the slow seller…
For 2022, the Subaru BRZ is getting a new design that actually doesn’t look all that new (bottom pic is the current version) Except for current owners… The new one isn’t as clean looking, but it also has a bit more personality to it. It also seems more aggressive. There are a bit too many… Continue reading 2022 Subaru BRZ: improving the slow seller…

2022 Honda Civic: Vs. other Hondas
You would think a smaller car targetting a younger demographic would look more modern or daring than the larger mid-sized model. But I really think the new 2022 Honda Civic sedan looks like a super boring version of the current Accord. They didn’t just copy it, they diluted the design and personality a lot.… Continue reading 2022 Honda Civic: Vs. other Hondas

2022 Honda Civic sedan: the “concept”…
This is a “concept” only by name. Since this is basically 99% of the new 2022 Honda Civic sedan that goes on sale next spring. (Add some chrome trim and replace the huge wheels and this is it…) So far, it has much less personality than the current version. It basically looks, as we… Continue reading 2022 Honda Civic sedan: the “concept”…

2011 Infiniti QX55: the QX50 “Coupe”…
We finally get to see the new 2022 Infiniti QX55. Which is a “coupe” version of the QX50 that came out over 2 years ago. (bottom pic) As you can see, it is exactly that. Nothing more. It even kept the same huge grille (which looks pretty bad in person… Like most of these… Continue reading 2011 Infiniti QX55: the QX50 “Coupe”…

BMW iX: insulting marketing…
It looks like BMW is having a hard time dealing with the onslaught of criticism of their new iX EV. They are now using some of the comments they got on their Twiter account in their own advertizing. Insulting critics with “OK Boomers” remarks. I have actually never heard of a car company officially… Continue reading BMW iX: insulting marketing…

2022 Subaru WRX: another spy photo…
Nothing that exciting, at least visually. But this will be big news for the fans who have been waiting for a new generation, for quite some time. No specs yet. But over 300HP is expected. With a front end that already looks very similar to the new generation Levorg that was launched recently in Japan.… Continue reading 2022 Subaru WRX: another spy photo…

2021 Nissan Note: the real thing…
The all-new Nissan Note hatchback already seems to be a very nice looking little hatchback. Since the Note was discontinued in the US a couple of years ago, the new generation is not expected to make it over here. Which is too bad. It is getting Nissan’s e-Power system which will probably result in amazing… Continue reading 2021 Nissan Note: the real thing…

2022/23 Honda CR-V: weirdest illustration ever…
Let’s hope this is just a fantasy. And not based on any inside info about the next-generation Honda CR-V. Since we have seen most of the next HR-V already, we know Honda is going for a new, more angular design language. But this would be pretty bad. The squared-off rear end is actually an interesting… Continue reading 2022/23 Honda CR-V: weirdest illustration ever…

Nissan Note: new generation around the corner…
The Nissan Note hatchback is getting a totally new design very soon. And it basically looks (at least from that angle) like a small Nissan Ariya. Which is not a bad thing. That front end design looks rather nice on a small hatchback car. I just wonder it the look will spread to more… Continue reading Nissan Note: new generation around the corner…
