Lancia: the next chapter…
Apparently, Stellantis has big plans for the old Lancia brand. And it all starts with the new logo you see here. Lancia has been almost dead for years. They are currently only producing one model: the Fiat 500-based Ypsilon. And that car is only sold in Italy. Stellantis claimed last year that a brand-new Ypsilon… Continue reading Lancia: the next chapter…

2024 Lincoln Nautilus: new spy shots…
There seems to be a new Lincoln Nautilus on its way. At least in China… The Nautilus is basically Lincoln’s version of the Ford Edge. It started life as the second-generation Lincoln MKX (remember these stupid names?) back in 2015. It got the new name and a facelift in 2019. So basically yes, it would… Continue reading 2024 Lincoln Nautilus: new spy shots…

Zhiki LS7: mytery EV solved…
Last month, I posted a few photos of a Mystery EV SUV caught in Europe. One that looked a lot like a Tesla Model Y. Many thought it could have been the upcoming “Tesla Compat car”. (which might happen or not. Years from now…) As it turned out, it was yet another new EV from… Continue reading Zhiki LS7: mytery EV solved…

Toyota Crown coupe: probably not…
The idea of a new Toyota Crown Coupe does sound nice. At the same time the Crown sedan was introduced, we saw pictures of an SUV, a wagon, and a more formal (lower) sedan model. Almost creating a new “Crown” sub-brand. Something in-between Toyota and Lexus. Although there isn’t that much room there for so… Continue reading Toyota Crown coupe: probably not…

MINI Aceman: new spy shot…
Every time we see a prototype of the upcoming Mini Aceman, it looks really close to the concept we just saw a few months ago. Although this new spy shot shows very different trim around the wheel arches. Maybe it’s a different version? With the concept showing a more “outdoorsy” model. The new Aceman EV… Continue reading MINI Aceman: new spy shot…

Nio ET5 wagon: spied and illustrated…
Chinese EV manufacturer Nio is getting a wagon version of the new ET5 sedan soon. The ET5 is a Tesla Model 3 competitor on sale in China and some European countries. Just like the Model 3, it is a fastback without a hatch. But unlike Tesla, Nio has chosen to offer a wagon version instead… Continue reading Nio ET5 wagon: spied and illustrated…

2023 Toyota Prius Hybrid: new video…
This video from Toyota details all the specs for the 2023 Prius Hybrid. We also get to see the grey interior. Which is still mostly black except for the seats. Since the doors don’t even have grey trim. It shows equipment and colors for all the various trims available. But no pricing yet. This also… Continue reading 2023 Toyota Prius Hybrid: new video…

2024 Hyundai Santa Fe: new illustrations…
ere are some newer illustrations of the upcoming 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe. It seems we’ve seen spy shots and illustrations of this car for ever now. While Toyota was able to keep the new Prius a secret until just a couple of weeks before it actually came out… These illustrations do look pretty close to… Continue reading 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe: new illustrations…

2024 Lexus TX: new illustration…
Almost exactly a year ago, we got a small taste of a few upcoming models from Lexus. Now we’re seeing a new illustration based on one of these photos. Showing what the upcoming new Lexus TX could look like. And since it’s close to the Lexus photo, it’s probably pretty accurate too. Except for the… Continue reading 2024 Lexus TX: new illustration…

Chevrolet FNR-XE Concept: more photos…
Just trying to find a few more live photos of the new Chevrolet FNR-XE concept. An electric sedan based on GM’s Ultium platform. To me, this is still very generic. It looks like it was designed by robots, not humans. There is just nothing we haven’t seen anywhere else here. I guess if produced, it… Continue reading Chevrolet FNR-XE Concept: more photos…

2024 Hyundai Santa Fe: new illustration…
This new illustration of the upcoming 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe actually does a pretty good job at guessing the next-generation SUV. Everything seems to match the recent spy shots we’ve seen so far. Although the roof rails are of a different design from the actual prototype. Otherwise, everything seems to be really close. It’s good… Continue reading 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe: new illustration…

Chevrolet FNR-XE Concept…
The new Chevrolet FNR-XE is a new Ultium-based concept from GM. This is apparently previewing a new EV sedan. Probably targeted at the Chinese market. This looks quite a bit like the new Toyota bZ-3. Also mostly for the Chinese market. Especially the profile. The front end has a weird Lexus-like grille. And the whole… Continue reading Chevrolet FNR-XE Concept…

Volvo EX30: new illustration…
At the same time it introduced the all-new EX90 EV, Volvo showed a couple of new, smaller models on the same stage. We couldn’t see much, but that didn’t stop various illustrators to guess what these would look like. The smaller of the two would logically be called EX30. (Although why not a new EX40… Continue reading Volvo EX30: new illustration…

Auto Show notes: part three…
In-person, the 2024 Chevrolet Equinox EV does look quite impressive. And quite large too. This seems to be able to compete with more expensive EVs. It’s actual;y 10 inches longer than the VW ID.4. And even 4 inches longer than the Mustang Mach-e. As for the interior, the 3LT version on the show floor looks… Continue reading Auto Show notes: part three…

2024 Buick Electra 5: dissapointing…
This is quite a letdown. After teasing us with the fantastic Electra X Concept just a few months ago, we get to see Buick’s very first EV (at least for the North American market). And it just looks pretty terrible. And nothing at all like the Electra X. At first, I thought it was based… Continue reading 2024 Buick Electra 5: dissapointing…

2022 Auto Show notes: part 1…
First, while not as great as in the past, the Los Angeles Auto show was much better than the one last year. At least, most manufacturers did show up (Although why not Cadillac???) The new 2023 Toyota Prius does not disappoint in person… It just looks great. The interior is also very nice and roomy,… Continue reading 2022 Auto Show notes: part 1…

2023 US Toyota Prius Prime XSE: new photos…
These are photos of the US version of the new Toyota Prius for 2023. Probably all of the sportier XSE models. The PHEV model will still be called Prime in the US. We don’t know much more about the US Prius yet. It is supposed to be available as a regular Hybrid with over 190HP,… Continue reading 2023 US Toyota Prius Prime XSE: new photos…

Toyota bZ3X: concept teaser…
While unveiling the Japanese version of the new 2023 Prius yesterday, Toyota also showed a new EV concept. It appears to be slightly smaller than the current bZ4X (bottom pic). And sportier looking. That means it could logically be called “bZ3X”. The new SUV does look much more dynamic than the bZ4X. The new concept… Continue reading Toyota bZ3X: concept teaser…

2023 Toyota Prius: US Prime version…
The version pictured here is the XSE Prime model for the US. Which is probably the top-of-the-line PHEV Prius in North America. These are the first photos I’ve seen of the US version. And there will be better ones soon. I’m really curious to see the interior in another color than black. And the cargo… Continue reading 2023 Toyota Prius: US Prime version…
