Another small teaser.And it still looks like a cross between the current model, the Maxima and the Versa. We will be seeing much more of this really soon.

I drove the Terrain last year and liked it. Despite its blocky look.Besides the exterior design (which almost grew on me after a while) my main complain was with the “slow but thirsty” 3.0 Liter V6 engine.I hear the 2.4 Liter is actually much better.For the new year, GMC has decided to offer a luxury… Continue reading 2013 GMC Terrain Denali

Coming up, the 2 door version of the redesigned Cee’d Hachback. This is becoming quite a lineup, which also includes the new Wagon.The sedan version will come over here as the new Kia Forte.It could be nice to have the 2 door hatch available as a sporty version, competing here with the VW GTI. Who… Continue reading 2013 Kia Pro Cee’d

All new. Looking very similar to the current model.Which is the story of most new cars these days… I am really not a fan of big and boxy, so this is really not for me.I sat in a few of these and was never really that impressed with interior quality that isn’t what it should… Continue reading 2013 Mercedes GL

Looks like another really good design from Hyundai.And actually quite subtle. No words on engines yet. We’ll see if they will go for an “all 4 Cylinder” lineup like in the Sonata.Or, like most others, keep the V6 as an option.

Not sure why, but GM just released some new pictures of the car, showing you can actually fit 4 golf bags into the trunk.Not sure who though it wasn’t possible in such a big car… I really like the XTS design. Especially from the 3/4 back where the C pillar and thicker chrome surround look… Continue reading 2013 Cadillac XTS

The new MG5 looks like another nice looking design from Rowe/MG. At least as good looking as many European cars, and much better than most Chinese cars.I hear that, must like the current MG6, it is slated to be produced in England sometime next year. Maybe not a “true” MG. Still pretty nice looking.

The more I see it, the more I love it. And the more I hate Volvo for not bringing this car to the US. They now have just a couple of SUVs, the S60 sedan and the “slow selling and invisible” S80. You would think they’d welcome something fresh and new.

This is the real thing for sure.Although we don’t see much yet.Still looking like a blend of the current car and the Maxima. With a lot of the new Versa…

Well, not really Topless. This refers to a new canvas top option for the small Chevrolet. In Europe only so far.The powered top option costs about $1400. Quite a lot for a cheap car. Not sure if this will make it to the US . The Spark is coming over here in the Summer.

This really doesn’t seem like much of an improvement.At least, design wise. The current model looks just fine.Actually still modern.The problem with the Outlander is everything else. It’s hard to tell about the interior quality on these pictures.The 3rd row seats seem to be just a little bit better than the horrific ones in the… Continue reading 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander

The Zoe is described as “Renault’s solution to Zero Emission mobility for all”. Due to its low price of 15 700 Euros. Including taxes. (And also include a 5000 Euros tax encentive.)Still, quite an amazing price. Just around $21 650. Much cheaper than electric cars offered over here in the US. It has an official… Continue reading Renault Zoe

Just a small movie teaser until we see more. Very soon. I bet US Fiat dealers will be very happy to see this one coming over here.It is not really related to the 500. As it uses a larger and different platform.But the front end gives it that “500 look”.

At least, they are trying something different. Unlike Audi with its “new” A3. Engine offered (In Europe) include:-1.6 Liter with 115hp-2.0 Liter with 156hp-2.0 Liter with 211hp The top diesel version uses a 2.2 Liter engine with 170hp 6 speed manual and 7 speed automatic transmissions are available. We’ll have to wait to see which… Continue reading More on the all new Mercedes A Class

As we saw before, the 3rd generation is a very timid redesign of the 2 previous ones.The new platform platform will be used for the next 2013 Golf as well as many other cars.
