Car News

I guess this is the weirdest car news I’ve heard in years. The “Great Wall” Chinese car company is apparently actively working on a brand new retro car, pictured above. Which seems as retro as you can be. It sounds like an April Fool’s joke in December… Usually, a retro design means something like the… Continue reading Chinese company “Great Wall” working on a retro sedan.

I recently posted illustrations showing what a possible new Toyota Camry coupe or wagon could look like. Since the coupe was in effect replaced by the 2-door Solara in 1998, let’s imagine a new Solara this time. Some are already claiming that coupes are making a comeback. This is mostly due to the new Honda… Continue reading Could a new Toyota Solara Hybrid compete against the Honda Prelude?

As we know, Lincoln doesn’t offer a sedan in the US anymore. While Cadillac is hard at work on a second-generation CT5 and is probably still developing 2 brand new EV sedans. Lincoln could choose from many names of past models, like Continental or Town Car. But the goofiest of all was “Versailles”. Naming a… Continue reading Should the Lincoln Versailles make a comeback as a new retro Lincoln sedan?

As it always does. These big Chevrolet (Or GMC, Ford, RAM) pickups are redesigned every few years, and always look about 90% ike the previous generation. I first started test-driving the Silverado about 20 years ago. I drove a few versions of the current full-size Chevrolet/GMC pickups over the last few years, and they actually… Continue reading Next-generation Chevrolet Silverado looks a lot like the current one…

And not only a new face, but more Mercedes stars. Everywhere! Since you know it’s so hard to tell it’s a Mercedes and your less fortunate friends and family members need to know you spend some serious dough on your next car… The revised model pictured in the images above is the Chinese market long… Continue reading Mercedes GLE getting a new face for the new year.

Cadillac will end production of the current CT4 and CT5 sedans after the 2026 model year. While the smaller CT4 will not make a comeback, GM is working on a next-generation CT5. The new sedan will be based on the Alpha 2-2 platform. An updated version of the current platform. From my experience with the… Continue reading 2nd generation Cadillac CT5 coming.

Over the last few months, we have seen quite a few illustrations and spy shots of the upcoming next-generation Hyundai Elantra. The one above is new and seems to show the sportier N Trim. It also shows the name Avante which is the car’s name in its home market.. Hyundai is said to have pushed… Continue reading New 2027 Hyundai Elantra coming next April.

For a few generations, Toyota used to offer more than a sedan design for the increasingly popular Camry. The first generation was actually offered as a sedan or a 4-door hatchback. While later ones included a 2-door coupe and even a station wagon. All these were also offered in the US. The coupe came with… Continue reading What if Toyota brought back the “Camry family”?

Despite being a huge initial buzz that included a long waiting list, the electric version of the Ford F-150 Lightning EV pickup hasn’t been the success Ford expected. Of course, they expected way too much. Ford started by mentioning 40,000 units a year. After the initial demand, the company claimed it could sell 150,000 of… Continue reading Ford replaces the F-150 Lighning EV with a new REV version.

At first, these recent illustrations of the future Mercedes compact “Baby G” off-road SUV. But they actually don’t really match the few details we’ve already seen in an official teaser a few months ago. The smaller model on the right of the images above shows the new compact Mercedes. It also shows roof rails. Something… Continue reading Future Mercedes “Baby G” illustrations…

Stellantis is a huge group composed of no less than 14 brands. That is an insane amount of brands for one company to run. Chrysler has been in trouble before, many times. But recent news from Stellantis might be the worst news yet for the good old American brand. A few years ago, the previous… Continue reading Stellantis chopping block: Is a next Chrysler 300 DOA?

Even another name would do. As long as it is a large Lincoln with 4 doors, a soft top, and lots of chrome and wood. That’s how the old guard likes it. Of course, if the 4-door luxury car market is small, just imagine how minuscule the appeal would be for a large 4-door luxury… Continue reading What about a new 4-door Continental convertible from Lincoln?

Chevrolet killed the Malibu sedan about a year ago. In its last year, GM’s last affordable sedan in the US still sold 117,000 units. Which wasn’t bad for a car that was in its 9th year. For a while, there were a few rumors about a next generation. I am sure Chevrolet was working on… Continue reading Chevrolet could use a new Malibu… (Video)

Ford and Renault just entered a partnership to build small EVs for the European market. There will be 2 new models for Ford, one probably being a new Fiesta EV. Ford will have access to Renault’s Ampere EV platform. A platform currently used for the Renault 5 EV, the Nissan Micra EV, as well as… Continue reading Next Ford Fiesta to be built by Renault.

Every Friday night, car nerds of all ages gather at Bob’s Big Boy restaurant in Burbank to enjoy amazing vintage cars and slightly overpriced food. While the food itself is just OK, it was still David Lynch’s favorite place for coffee, pie and milk shakes. For many years. The cars are usually fantastic. Some weeks… Continue reading Vintage cars meet burgers in Burbank. (Video)
