2022 Nissan Frontier: new pix…
As you can see from the shape of the license plate, this is actually not the all-new 2022 US market Nissan Frontier. (Plus it doesn’t match the super square/blocky look of the Frontier prototypes we have already seen) As a few people have mentioned in the comments of my previous post, this appears to… Continue reading 2022 Nissan Frontier: new pix…

2022 Honda Civic sedan: another illustration…
Again, I do not think this is an improvement over the current generation design. And I am not sure the ‘small Accord’ look is the way to go. At the same time, I really think the hatchback version (HERE), while very similar, is actually much more attractive. The current Accord isn’t selling as well as… Continue reading 2022 Honda Civic sedan: another illustration…

2022 GMC Hummer EV: another $100 000 EV…
I thought I would compare the new GMC Hummer EV to the upcoming Rivian R1T Electric Pick-up. Since, I think, the Rivian could be its main competition. – So far, we know the Hummer will get around 1000HP and a 350 miles range. (A less powerful version will be available in 2024 (!!!) for… Continue reading 2022 GMC Hummer EV: another $100 000 EV…

2022 Subaru WRX: compared to the current one…
The 2022 Subaru WRX will adopt Subaru’s newer Global Platform. Which is currently used for pretty much all other Subaru models (Except the current WRX). That means better driving dynamics and an all-new interior. At least. The STI version is expected to produce close to 400HP. While the regular WRX could see a bump… Continue reading 2022 Subaru WRX: compared to the current one…

2022 Kia Sportage: new illustration.
The illustration on top seems to be quite accurate. From what we know. (Which isn’t much.) There is still so much camouflage on the prototypes driving around, that it really could look like anything… As we know, the new Sportage will be mechanically very close to the recently introduced Hyundai Tucson.

2022 Nissan Frontier: new after 15 years…
With these new photos, we finally get to see what the all-new Nissan Frontier will look like for 2022. The new generation is getting a total makeover and a more aggressive look. With a huge grille. (Although thse pix do look quite different from the spy shots we have seen before of the new… Continue reading 2022 Nissan Frontier: new after 15 years…

2022 Honda Civic: the hatchback…
While the new 2020 Honda Civic sedan will be a more conservative design than the current version, the hatchback will be a welcome change. A simple, classy (if a bit boring) design that is a vast improvement over the overdone mess we have now. Fake scoops, spoilers, and cheezy black plastic trim everywhere are all… Continue reading 2022 Honda Civic: the hatchback…

2022 Honda Civic Sedan: new illustration
Although this is just an illustration, I think it shows a pretty accurate rendition of what the new Honda Civic sedan for 2022 will look like. Which is basically: like a small Accord. I think it’s a weird move. Since the Civic is a far more popular car than the Accord these days (325… Continue reading 2022 Honda Civic Sedan: new illustration

2022 Subaru WRX: hatchback and sedan?
From these photos, it looks like Subaru could offer the next generation WRX in 2 body styles. The top photo (as well as the one HERE) shows a slightly more slanted rear window. But especially, a wiper. Which is usually only used on a hatchback design. Subaru did offer a WRX hatch from 2007… Continue reading 2022 Subaru WRX: hatchback and sedan?

2022 Subaru WRX: the next generation…
It looks like a new Subaru WRX is on its way. But, upon closer inspection, it doesn’t look ‘all-new’. It looks like a total refresh, like the 2020 Passat or 2021 Lexus IS. Where all the outer panels are new. The rear side doors are the only place where the glass seems new. Or maybe,… Continue reading 2022 Subaru WRX: the next generation…

2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Sport: a few changes…
At least visually, there isn’t a lot of new stuff for the 2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Sport. (pix 1,3 and 5 are the new one) The basic ‘new plastic parts’ mid-cycle facelift. Even less inside. Where the screen now adds a couple of knobs. But not much else. The biggest disappointment is the new plug-in… Continue reading 2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Sport: a few changes…

2022 Acura MDX: still calling it a “prototype”…
I am not actually sure why Acura is calling this a ‘prototype’. Since it is obviously the production model. Or at least 99% of it… (I guess it is a way to make the news twice?) I think the new MDX looks exactly like it should. The proportions are much nicer than the current… Continue reading 2022 Acura MDX: still calling it a “prototype”…

New Nissan Pick-up: is it the new Frontier?
Let’s hope not. The early spy shots we have seen of the next generation Frontier looked a bit better. ( HERE and HERE) With a more squared-off design. So I am not sure what this is. But I think it could be a revised Navara, the Frontier’s overseas’s cousin. What do you think?

2022 VW Taos: the boring choice…
If the “all-new” Taos doesn’t look new at all, it’s because it is not new. Not only does it look almost exactly like the Tiguan, (Which has been on sale in the US for over 3 years). it is also basically the same car as the 3-year-old Chinese VW Tharu. The interior is the… Continue reading 2022 VW Taos: the boring choice…

2022 VW Taos: the real thing.
VW will finally enter the small Crossover market with the Taos, later today. After all these years, they will have something smaller than the Tiguan in the US. Which, basically, will look like a small Tiguan. Since it is a version of the Chinese VW Tharu. All we know so far is how it looks… Continue reading 2022 VW Taos: the real thing.

2021 Honda Ridgeline: a more macho look…
Honda has always had a problem with the Ridgeline. As i seems unable to find an audience. I think a comfortable, “car” based pick-up is a great idea. But with the second generation, Honda had tried to make it look more like a truck. Which, I guess, didn’t appeal to “non-truck people”. At the… Continue reading 2021 Honda Ridgeline: a more macho look…

Honda SUVe Concept: some new footage
The new Honda SUVe concept looks really nice in action. It could be a great new styling direction for the brand. And some of its design will end up in the next generation HR-V, coming to the US next year. From what we have seen of the new HR-V prototypes, it looks like the front… Continue reading Honda SUVe Concept: some new footage

Buick Encore GX: let’s drive to the desert!
I took the new Buck Encore GX for a road trip to the desert. Even though my test car is a FWD model, it had no problem tackling a few rough roads. And it was big enough inside to sleep in during the camping trip. I will post my review and many photos soon.… Continue reading Buick Encore GX: let’s drive to the desert!

2022 Genesis GV70: the electric version!
The GV70 Crossover is not even out yet, and we already get to see what the EV version will look like. Which is, basically, the same as the regular model. Except, of course, for the lack of exhaust pipes and a mostly blocked out front grille. Since Genesis will also offer an electric version… Continue reading 2022 Genesis GV70: the electric version!
