Cadillac Lyriq: the “frunk”…
Yes, it looks like you can actually get a front trunk on the Cadillac Lyriq EV. At least in the RWD version. And only if you live in China… It doesn’t appear to be that big, but it’s better than nothing. And seems quite a bit larger than what Hyundai and Kia are offering in… Continue reading Cadillac Lyriq: the “frunk”…

2024 Mercedes GLA: spy shots…
The current Mercedes GLA has already been out for about 3 years. And. I guess it’s time for the usual mid-cycle refresh. It actually won’t be much of a refresh. At least visually. Outside, it will be the usual tiny changes that no one will be able to see. And it looks like the interior… Continue reading 2024 Mercedes GLA: spy shots…

Mystery Kia EV: spy shots…
The sharp angle on the A-pillar is reminiscent of the EV6, and the upcoming EV9 SUV. Both Kia and Hyundai are working on smaller electric crossovers. And sometimes, it seems similar design cues are used by both brands. For instance, there’s something very “KIAish” in the new 2024 Hyundai Kona profile. The rear side window… Continue reading Mystery Kia EV: spy shots…

Mini Aceman: new illustration…
The top illustration is supposed to show us what the all-new Mini Aceman will look like. We basically already know what it’ll look like since we’ve seen quite a few spy shots of the new model. And they all look very close to the concept we saw a few months ago. (pic 2&3). The illustration… Continue reading Mini Aceman: new illustration…

2024 Hyundai Kona: official photos…
After all these spy shots and illustrations, today is the day we finally get to see the real thing: the new 2024 Hyundai Kona. At least in these early photos, it looks much better than any illustrations I have seen. The N Line and Electric models have painted fenders. Which is nice. The regular Kona… Continue reading 2024 Hyundai Kona: official photos…

Buick Electra E5: official photos…
The all-new Electra E5 is the first Buick model based on GM’s Ultium platform. And it doesn’t look great. Although I have to admit, it’s not as bad as the early photos we had seen a while ago. The E5 is, so far, a Chinese market-only model. As we should be getting the much better-looking… Continue reading Buick Electra E5: official photos…

2024 Hyundai Santa Fe: new illustration…
This new illustration of the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe seems definitely closer to the actual prototypes than what we’ve seen before. As predicted, this will be a radical departure not only from the current generation but from anything Hyundai is currently doing. We’ve seen most of the interior before, and it also plays the part… Continue reading 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe: new illustration…

2024/25 Nissan GT-R: new illustration…
Yes, the Nissan GT-R is still around. And a new one is even planned… The current model started production in 2007. So it’s not too crazy to expect a new generation after 15 years. The illustration above seems to show a high-performance EV. Which would be a drastic but necessary change. Especially if the next… Continue reading 2024/25 Nissan GT-R: new illustration…

Toyota bZ3: new photos…
Just a few more photos of a car we’ve already seen: the Toyota bZ3 electric sedan. Toyota has still not made any announcement regarding sales outside of China. But it seems it could be a nice alternative to the Tesla Model 3 or even the Hyundai Ioniq 6. Although the Ioniq 6 has a really… Continue reading Toyota bZ3: new photos…

Cadillac Lyriq: new color…
It seems Cadillac is very slowly adding new colors to the Lyriq EV. The launch edition model only came in silver or dark grey. As you can see above, you can now also get white and dark blue. And we saw a light blue available for the Chinese market a few months ago. Not it… Continue reading Cadillac Lyriq: new color…

Buick: another design language coming up?
GM designer Namwoo Kim just released what is described as ” a fresh take on Buick”. Already? I do like this new front-end design a lot. But it seems Buick has just started showing new designs with a new corporate front-end design. It seems all new Buicks will have this new face. Like the one… Continue reading Buick: another design language coming up?

2024 Kia Carnival: new illustrations…
It seems the Kia Carnival Minivan just came out. It will be 3 years old in June, although it only came to the US in February 2021. It seems Kia cannot wait to give it a new face and redesigned tail lights, for some reason. From the illustration above, the front end looks fine. A… Continue reading 2024 Kia Carnival: new illustrations…

New Ford EV: another teaser…
Just a few hours after teh first teaser, we get this new photo. This is the head of Ford Europe, Martin Sander, almost uncovering the all-new EV. It will be the first result of a Ford/VW partnership and will use the same platform as the ID.4. We will not see the new car this year,… Continue reading New Ford EV: another teaser…

New electric Ford SUV coming up…
Ford just released a new teaser for an all-new upcoming EV. The second photo is from last March. When they announced 2 new models based on VW’s MEB platform. It seems the (slightly) larger model on the left will come out first. Since they’ve just teased it again. All we know so far is that… Continue reading New electric Ford SUV coming up…

Honda HR-V Hybrid: spy shots…
Honda will soon release a Hybrid version of their new HR-V. In China… The Hybrid version is getting an all-new front end, one that is very different from our North American model. Where even the hood and headlights are all-new. The rear hatch is also quite different with more upscale lights across the whole car.… Continue reading Honda HR-V Hybrid: spy shots…

Neta E EV coupe.
This new EV from China reminds me of what an electric Toyota Celica could look like. In a sea of electric SUVs and sedans, it’s wonderful to see a 2 door coupe coming out. Even if it probably won’t be available outside of its home market. While it looks like a hatchback, it’s actually a… Continue reading Neta E EV coupe.

2024 Buick Encore GX: new interior…
The top photo shows the redesigned interior (At least the dashboard…) of the revised Buick Encore GX for 2024. We’ve seen recent spy shots of totally uncamouflaged prototypes just a few days ago. The dew interior is very similar to what Buick has been offering in China lately. Especially the new Envista. Which is shown… Continue reading 2024 Buick Encore GX: new interior…

All-New Buick LaCrosse: spy shots…
Buick has redesigned the LaCrosse sedan for the Chinese market. I’m actually not sure it looks that much better than the outgoing model. GM stopped selling the current generation in the US in 2019. That year it got a mid-cycle facelift for the Chinese market and kept being sold over there. Of course, this next… Continue reading All-New Buick LaCrosse: spy shots…

2023 Toyota Prius: US pricing…
Toyota has just announced pricing for the all-new, re-invented 2023 Prius. And things are up to $2700 over the previous generation. Still, at around $27 500 to start it isn’t bad at all. Especially for something that has now almost 200HP and still gets up to 57MPG. Plus, the new design alone, inside and out,… Continue reading 2023 Toyota Prius: US pricing…

2024 Lexus TX: new illusrations…
These new illustrations of the upcoming Lexus TX 3-row crossover do match the photo we saw from Toyota last year. Where the TX was hiding behind all these EV concepts. (5th photo) It all matches except the grille, which is still a guess. And the Hinghalder-like swoop on the profile. Which is pretty terrible and… Continue reading 2024 Lexus TX: new illusrations…
