2021 Hyundai Santa Fe
It is actually hard to keep up with the constant flow of new Korea cars that will arrive next year. Kia will have at least the new Sorento and Optima. While Hyundai will get the new Tucson and this redesigned Santa-Fe. And there is probably a new Elantra not far behind. All this just a… Continue reading 2021 Hyundai Santa Fe

2021 Kia Optima interior
Most manufacturers are not giving up on good looking, affordable mid sized sedans. A good example is the all new Kia Optima/K5. This interior would have been great just a few years ago in a luxury car. The Optima will no doubt start at under $25 000 in the US. Of course the pix above… Continue reading 2021 Kia Optima interior

Buick Regal dead after 2020…
Just hours after my last post about the revised 2020 Opel Insignia, GM announced these cars will not make it to the US. Since they are killing the Regal model here. They killed them all! The Regal, Regal GS and Tour-X. Of course, we hear the usual excuse “customers want SUV’s” BS. Sure, it it… Continue reading Buick Regal dead after 2020…

2020 Opel Insignia/2021 Buick regal
Opel has just released pictures of the revised Insignia sedan and wagon for the European market. Which means our Buick Regal Sportback and Tour-X will be getting the same changes very soon, since they are basically the same car. (The Regal being imported from Europe) I think Opel did a great job. The design still… Continue reading 2020 Opel Insignia/2021 Buick regal

2021 Hyundai Sonata N-Line
It looks like the sportier N-Line version of the new Hyundai Sonata is pretty much ready to go. From these pictures, it also seems like it will have a pretty subtle look. Without spoilers or huge side skirts. Which is a good thing. Inside, the seats look really nice. Power will come from a 2.5… Continue reading 2021 Hyundai Sonata N-Line

2021 Genesis GV80
Since we are seeing new pictures almost every day now, it looks like the new Genesis GV80 will be officially shown very, very soon. These new pictures are now coming from the actual factory. And they pretty much show what we have seen already. (That grille seems to be larger every time I see a… Continue reading 2021 Genesis GV80

Auto Show notes…
I guess this is Cadillac’s new naming convention for all their 2020 Models. Now this CT6 is called a CT6 800t. This is supposed to represent the torque number. But the CT6 doesn’t have 800lb-ft to torque at all. These new numbers represent “Newton meters” ratings. This is one of the most ridiculous thing I… Continue reading Auto Show notes…

2021 Jaguar F-Type
Gorgeous as usual. With small modifications for the new year, that don’t ruin anything. The interior is also almost the same. With, mainly, a larger screen. Engine choices include the 2.0 Liter Turbo with 296HP and a 5.0 Liter V8 with 444HP.

2021 Hyundai Santa Cruz .
Th stop photo is the actual production model. While the bottom one, is the familiar Concept from 2015. It looks like Hyundai is trying to stay as close to the concept as possible. Although it now has 4 full size doors. Besides all that camouflage, the new Hyundai pick up looks pretty much ready to… Continue reading 2021 Hyundai Santa Cruz .

Another picture of the new 2021 Genesis GV80
We have seen so many spy shots, illustrations etc… that is doesn’t really look all new. The front end is also almost the same as the revised 2020 G90 sedan. Still, this is the new Genesis brand’s most important model so far. Apparently 5 and 7 seat versions will be available. Which means this will… Continue reading Another picture of the new 2021 Genesis GV80

2021 Kia Sorento 3D illustrations
These are a mixed bag of “spot on” and “way off”. The c-pillar and rear side window shape do seem pretty close to the spy shots we have seen of the car. Including the rear lights. While the front end is way off and doesn’t match at all the recent picture I posted HERE. Plus,… Continue reading 2021 Kia Sorento 3D illustrations

2021 Genesis GV80
It looks like the lower cladding is covered. Or painted in a lighter color. Otherwise, this is it. The all new Genesis GV80. It will be available in RWD or AWD. 5 or 7 seater versions will be offered (Although not in all markets) And it will be quickly followed by the smaller GV70… More… Continue reading 2021 Genesis GV80

2020/21 Jaguar F-Type
While the jaguar F-Type is now 6 years old, I think it is still the best looking current Jaguar. After 6 years, we don’t get a new car. But a “facelift”. With an all new front and rear ends. Lights etc… Not sure about the interior yet. And I hear new engines are planned (Like… Continue reading 2020/21 Jaguar F-Type

2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E Video
Just something I shot a few days ago at the Los Angeles Auto Show. The car is very impressive in person. I think it does look good. And the interior is much more upscale than the Tesla Model 3. I hear the “first year only” First Edition version is already sold out. Which is good… Continue reading 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E Video

2021 Kia Sorento
This is the first picture I have seen of the all new 2021 Sorento uncovered. Which, at least to me, looks like a cross between the new Ford Explorer and a Chinese SUV. So far at least… It seems very “chromy”, with a really big grille. Unlike the more modern and subtle look of the… Continue reading 2021 Kia Sorento

More pictures of the 2020 VW Golf
Fans of the Golf will love it. Since it looks like.. a Golf. One with a really nice a modern interior. Almost futuristic. (Looks like the new Golf is the only way to get an affordable VW with a modern interior these days…) Everywhere except the US that is. Since the new Golf will not… Continue reading More pictures of the 2020 VW Golf

2020 Geely Icon
I know it looks a bit weird. And has strange lines on the side. And a pretty busy interior. But somehow, I like it. I think this does have a cool modern personality. It is based on the BMA platform that accepts gas engines as well as Plug-in Hybrid powertrains. It is smaller than Volvo’s… Continue reading 2020 Geely Icon

More pictures of the 2020 VW Passat.
As I mentioned before, the more I see the 2020 Passat, the more I like it. I think VW did a good job updating the car. It is not all new but it actually looks more new than many “new” models from Audi or BMW. It has a classic look that actually last longer than… Continue reading More pictures of the 2020 VW Passat.

More pictures of the all new Kia Optima/K5
Again, this looks quite impressive for a “non-luxury” brand. Inside and out. The whole thing looks quite upscale. It looks like this is trying to be what the Telluride is to SUVs, in the sedan segment. Which is basically offer as much quality and content as more expensive luxury brands. This new Optima not only… Continue reading More pictures of the all new Kia Optima/K5

Auto Show notes: VW Atlas SportCross
I have to say, the new 5 seater version of the Atlas looks much better than the regular model. And since it is only a few inches shorter, there is tons of room inside. With a huge cargo area. But that interior is the same as the regular Atlas. The same interior that looked old… Continue reading Auto Show notes: VW Atlas SportCross
