All-new Nissan Note: not for us.
Yes, there will be a new generation Nissan Note. But it will not make it to the US. And it might not make it to Europe either, since Nissan has decided to concentrate on SUVs for that market. I test drove the previous generation a couple of times and actually liked it. I liked… Continue reading All-new Nissan Note: not for us.

2021 Kia Sorento: the US version is here.
The US Sorento looks pretty much the same as the one sold in other markets. Although we do get a specific choice of trims and engines. The trims for the all-new 2021 model are: – LX, S EX, SX, SX-Prestige and X-Line SX-Prestige (which is quite a mouth full) – All versions are available… Continue reading 2021 Kia Sorento: the US version is here.

New BMW M3/M4: overdone?
This is quite the opposite of the early M3 models were. back when things were a bit more subtle. Which hasn’t been the case for a while I guess. This is way overdone, but that’s what the M3 has become over the years. Most people who buy this will, unfortunately, never use it to… Continue reading New BMW M3/M4: overdone?

2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer: another picture of the production version
Just another pic of what the production Jeep Grand Wagoneer really looks like. Which is “really big”. As you can see, parked right next to the Ram truck it is based on. So far, the new Grand Wagoneer seems to be quite a disappointment to many fans of the old one. We’ll see if… Continue reading 2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer: another picture of the production version

New Hyundai Custo Minivan: not for us.
I have mentioned this new Hyundai Minivan before (HERE). It is based on the new Kia Sedona Minivan. (HERE) And Hyundai has, of course, decided they can’t sell both in the US. So this is , basically, mostly for the Chinese market. The exterior looks like a blend between Hyundai’s recent designs and some… Continue reading New Hyundai Custo Minivan: not for us.

Not sure why, since we have seen this already, but VW has decided to release these two pictures as teasers for their upcoming ID.4 EV. So now we know exactly what the lights look like…

1995 Mazda Mystere Convertible: what could have been.
While I do remember the Mazda 626, and its coupe version, the MX-6. I had never heard of the Mystere until I saw these photos. (Myster was the name of the MX-6 in Canada) The MX-6 (and its cousin, the Ford Probe) was a very nice looking coupe. And, as you can see on… Continue reading 1995 Mazda Mystere Convertible: what could have been.

2022 Genesis GV70 interior: Vs. the GV80
As you can see, the upcoming GV70 interior will use many parts from its larger, and more expensive, brother, the GV80. The console seems obviously narrower. But the rotary dials seem top to be the same. Same thing for the steering wheel. Which is good news since the GV80 has a great interior… This should… Continue reading 2022 Genesis GV70 interior: Vs. the GV80

2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer: Production model Vs.Concept
Since the ‘concept’ we saw a few days ago was basically the eal thing with a few ‘concept bits’, the production version of the all-new reborn Grand Wagoneer is no surprise: It is basically the exact same thing. Even the wheel design seems to be the same. The main differences seem to be up… Continue reading 2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer: Production model Vs.Concept

2022 Genesis GV70: new interior photos
This looks to be the interior of a sporty version of the upcoming Genesis GV70 SUV. With Alcantara seats and some ‘carbon fiber-like’ trim. The whole thing already looks pretty nice. And quite upscale. By the time it comes out, the Genesis will try to compete with the usual European competition like the Audi… Continue reading 2022 Genesis GV70: new interior photos

2022 Ford F-150 Electric: a teaser…
At least from this teaser, the new electric version of the F-150 won’t look that much different. It willbasically be the same old looking truck with a weirdly futuristic front end. One that probably won’t match the rest of the super-conservative exterior. Which is probably fine. Since the F-150 is a best seller no matter… Continue reading 2022 Ford F-150 Electric: a teaser…

2021 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross: let’s try again…
It looks like Mitsubishi will try to smooth out the Eclipse Cross design a bit for 2021. It came out 3 years ago, so I guess it is time for that mandatory “mid-cycle refresh”. The Eclipse Cross has not been a hit so far. They could not even sell 20 000 of them last… Continue reading 2021 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross: let’s try again…

All-new VW Taos: is it the Chinese Tharu?
As I mentioned earlier, this “new small VW SUV for the US” looks a lot like the Chinese Tharu. Which is OK I guess, since it looks just like a small Tiguan. The Tharu came out in 2018, so I guess a facelift is scheduled for 2021 and that’s the one we will be… Continue reading All-new VW Taos: is it the Chinese Tharu?

Untitled Post
Just one last small teaser before we see the real thing. I mean, we have seen so many pix already, there won’t be any surprises. Hopefully, we should find out about US specs. and timing. I’ve heard it might be on sale before the US factory is ready to produce it, with early units… Continue reading Untitled Post

Let’s take a drive…
Yesterday I decided to drive up the coast. As you can see in the video, the full effects of climate change are on display here. While it is not nearly as bad as in San Francisco, it has been like this for days. (You can also see the ashes on the hood of the car… Continue reading Let’s take a drive…

Z Proto Vs. 370Z:
Of course, the next Z/Proto Concept is a new design. But as you can see above, the car is not all new. Not only it rides on a ‘modified’ platform of the current car, but there are also a few similar parts. The side front windows look to be exactly the same on both cars.… Continue reading Z Proto Vs. 370Z:

Nissan “Z-Proto”: close to the real thing.
Although it looks really nice, there seems to be nothing surprising about this new “Z Proto”. Also, after all these years, this is still ‘just’ a concept. Something that seems popular these days. (Like the Jeep Grand Wagoneer and others) At least the good news is there will be a new Z very soon. Powered… Continue reading Nissan “Z-Proto”: close to the real thing.

New Honda EV Concept: next HR-V preview
Honda has released a teaser for an all new EV concept, and it does look familiar, doesn’t it… The new teaser shows a concept version of the all-new HR-V for the Chinese market. China also has an XR-V, which is basically the HR-V with different lights and other details. The concept will be an… Continue reading New Honda EV Concept: next HR-V preview

2021 Hyundai Tucson: this is it!
I have to say, there is nothing disappointing in these pictures. the all-new Hyundai Tucson for 2021 has a tricking and modern design. And what looks like a fantastic interior for its class. Really, this is one of the best interior designs around. Hyundai seems to be making a big push in Europe with this… Continue reading 2021 Hyundai Tucson: this is it!
