After 9 generations, Chevrolet killed the Malibu sedan a few months ago. Which seems to be another of these weird GM decisions, since the Malibu was still quite popular with over 117,000 units sold in 2024. Which is actually pretty good for a car that came out in 2015. I guess sometimes GM feels the… Continue reading Possible next-generation Chevrolet Malibu.

It seems the current Cadillac lineup of electric SUVs is getting crowded with many similar designs. It looks like everything is a version of the Cadillac Lyriq that came out a few years ago. I was really hoping the new Cadillac Vistiq would look better than it does. Or at least have a bit more… Continue reading Cadillac Vistiq alternative.

Yes, it took a little while for Renault to finally come up with the new electric Twingo, but the wait was worth it. The production car looks almost exactly the same as the e-Tech Concept from 2024. And the “prototype” that was shown a few months ago. The new car also looks a lot like… Continue reading New Renault Twingo e-Tech Electric.

I had to admit I had no idea the Mercedes GLA was still on sale in the US. But it is… Starting at $41,500 for the 2026 model. The current, 2nd generation, came out in 2019, and Mercedes figured the world deserves a new one. The GLA has never been a big seller in the… Continue reading 2027 Mercedes GLA.

Right now, the Ioniq 5 is the cheapest EV from the Ioniq family you can buy from Hyundai. At least in North America, where it now starts at $35,000. Prices for the 2026 Ioniq 6 sedans have not been announced yet, but they will also be cheaper than last year. This will change soon with… Continue reading 2026/27 Hyundai Ioniq 3.

This might be hard to believe, but the original Honda C-RV came out 30 years ago. It was introduced in Japan in October 1995. The current 6th generation is about 10 inches longer than the original and started production in September 2022. It is still going strong 3 years later. It also received a few… Continue reading Possible next generation Honda C-RV.

After unveiling the EV4, Kia launched the US version just a few months ago at the New York Auto Show. Pictured above, you can see the US side markers and various small changes necessary for our market. While the design isn’t for everyone, the new Kia is a very roomy sedan with interesting specs like… Continue reading Is Kia canceling the EV4 in the US?

I remember seeing the all-new Hyundai Santa Fe at the Los Angeles Auto Show just a couple of years ago. I was really looking forward to seeing it in person since I thought it looked great in pictures. Unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed. It just looked OK in the flesh. A lot of black trim… Continue reading 2027 Hyundai Santa Fe.

All of a sudden. It seems Kia cannot wait to show its all-new Telluride. Since they’ve already committed to a Los Angeles Auto Show launch in a few weeks, all they can currently release are these teasers of a camouflaged car. As predicted, it looks very closely related to the 2026 Hyundai Palisade (3rd pic).… Continue reading 2027 Kia Telluride.

This new Mazda concept is another cool design that will never happen. I hate to say, but Mazda has a terrible history of showing really cool concepts at auto shows and not following through with actual production cars. What we have currently in the real world is the “new” Mazda CX-5. One that looks 99%… Continue reading Mazda Vision X Coupe Concept.

Among a sea of Concepts from the Japanese Auto show, it’s almost refreshing to see a real car. A production model that is not a concept or a prototype. This is the all-new Nissan Elgrand Minivan. Nissan has offered the premium Elgrand Minivan in Japan since 1997. The new one is the 4th generation and… Continue reading 2026 Nissan Elgrand

An actual next-generation Toyota Corolla looking like this would be a revolution. And would mean goodbye forever to boring Toyota sedans. I’ve already seen a few YouTubers referring to this as the “2027 Toyota Corolla”. Which is wrong. Sorry to say, but this is not what the next-generation Corolla will look like. No matter how… Continue reading Toyota Corolla Concept.

Another new nice design from Toyota is this new Lexus LS concept. Just when Lexus decided to kill the LS sedan, they’re showing us what a future model could look like. In this case, a raised up 4-door coupe. And why not? It seems that at least they might try to keep the name “LS”… Continue reading Lexus LS Coupe Concept.

This new Toyota Century concept is basically the start of an all-new sub-brand for the Japanese giant. One that will take Toyota to a level above Lexus. Many have mentioned the new Century brand could possibly compete against Bentley or even Rolls-Royce. Which I think would be a mistake. These 2 historic brands have a… Continue reading Toyota Century Concept.

At first, the new Honda 0 Alpha Prototype looks a lot like the 0 SUV Concept we saw a few months ago. However, when you compare the two, it is obvious they are two completely different vehicles. The new model is not only smaller, but actually quite different. The weirdest part of the design is… Continue reading Honda 0 Alpha Prototype.
