These are very early photos of the next-generation VW Tayron. It will be sold as the new Tiguan in North America. So far, the Tayron was a Chinese market version of the long wheelbase version of the European Tiguan. Which was sold in North America as “Tiguan”. Since we never got the current generation’s shorter… Continue reading 2026 VW Tiguan.
2026 Jeep Compass.
Jeep just released a brand new teaser for the all-new next-generation Jeep Compass. The brand doesn’t have much to say about the new car yet, and here is the official word so far: “The Jeep® brand previewed the next-generation Compass, the first four-wheel-drive compact Jeep SUV built on the STLA Medium platform. True to the… Continue reading 2026 Jeep Compass.
Big Cadillacs video.
Join me in imagining what a few future “Big Cadillacs” could look like. By “big” I mean big sedans and coupes. Like Cadillacs used to be years ago. The Deville, the Eldorado. Not anything like the Escalade, which somehow, now represents the modern top-of-the-line Cadillac. These huge sedans and coupes were low yet inefficient. GM’s… Continue reading Big Cadillacs video.
2026 Toyota RAV4.
This illustration shows what a next-generation 2026 Toyota RAV4 could look like. A design that is at the same time entirely new yet familiar to the millions of RAV4 owners around the world. The Toyota RAV4 has become hugely popular in the US and Toyota might not want to roll the dice on the next… Continue reading 2026 Toyota RAV4.
2025 Ford Expedition.
As expected after seeing the 2025 Lincoln Navigator a few days ago, the revised Ford Expeditions out. And looks like a cross between last year’s Ford Expedition and this year’s Navigator. I guess GM does the same thing with their giant truck-based SUVs as well. Although I really think the Cadillac Escalade does look more… Continue reading 2025 Ford Expedition.
Chrysler Pacifica Future.
The current Chrysler Pacifica will be getting another “refresh” before the all-new model is ready. That revised version of the current generation will come after 2025, probably in 2026. While the current Minivan still looks good, it will be almost 10 years old by 2026. We might even see a new generation Honda Odyssey before… Continue reading Chrysler Pacifica Future.
2027 Toyota Corolla.
The current 12th generation Toyota Corolla came out in 2018, and a new one is rumored to come out for the 2027 model year in the US. That would mean an introduction in early 2026 or maybe even before they decide to redesign it for the 2026 model year. However, that would mean a busy… Continue reading 2027 Toyota Corolla.
Lincoln Continental Convertible.
With Ford apparently concentrating their future products on “Iconic” names like Bronco and Mustang, why not a new Lincoln Continental for their luxury brand? Lincoln is trying hard to appeal to the Chinese market, where they already sell a sedan. But a larger one wouldn’t hurt, would it? Especially one that could be offered as… Continue reading Lincoln Continental Convertible.
Ford’s future.
According to Ford CEO Jim Farley, there will be “no more boring cars” in Ford’s future. Which is a very vague statement, and one many other car manufacturers have made over the years. More recently Toyota. And yet… This “exciting” Ford future devoid of anything boring will feature 3 names: Mustang, Bronco, and Raptor. This… Continue reading Ford’s future.
GMC Granite.
Back in 2010, GM introduced the idea of a smaller GMC model with a new concept car called the Granite. While the Granite never made it to production, the illustration above shows what a new small GMC EV could look like. One based on the upcoming next-generation Chevrolet Bolt. A small EV with better capacities… Continue reading GMC Granite.
Honda Civic Hybrid test drive.
For the 2025 model year, Honda has finally brought the Civic hybrid to the US. It has been on sale for a few years overseas and it did take a while for Honda to bring it over here. The 2025 model year also features a new face. One that doesn’t really improve anything and actually… Continue reading Honda Civic Hybrid test drive.
Lynk & Co Z20.
There is another nightmare for Tesla on the horizon. It is called the Z20 from Lynk & Co. While the small compact Tesla model is rumored to have been canceled a few months ago, Elon Musk has claimed this was a lie. apparently, they are still working on a smaller car. If that is the… Continue reading Lynk & Co Z20.
Chrysler 300.
Chrysler decided to discontinue the 300 sedan last year. At the same time, Stellantis also killed the Dodge Challenger and the previous generation Challenger. While the Dodge models morphed into the brand new Charger available in both 2 or 4 doors, there is no replacement for the Chrysler 300. At least so far… The new… Continue reading Chrysler 300.
Volvo EV90.
There are rumors that just won’t die, and a future Volvo EV wagon is one of them. The illustration above shows what a new large EV Volvo wagon could look like. While the S60 sedan has been discontinued, Volvo will soon offer a brand new ES90 electric sedan. We’ve already seen a teaser of the… Continue reading Volvo EV90.
Honda Civic Hybrid test drive coming up.
The Honda Civic is now available as a Hybrid. Both body styles sedan and hatchback are offered with the new powertrain.

When the current Honda Civic came… Continue reading Honda Civic Hybrid test drive coming up.
2025 Lincoln Navigator.
Here is a short video showing the revised 2025 Lincoln Navigator in action, inside and out. It features what Lincoln assumes is a typical family, driving around in the $100,000 gargantuan SUV. Unlike what Lincoln is saying, this is NOT an all-new Navigator. For 2025, the Navigator will compete with the refreshed Cadillac Escalade, which… Continue reading 2025 Lincoln Navigator.
Chevrolet Trailblazer test drive.
The current Chevrolet Trailblazer came out in 2021, and it is a familiar sight. The version I drove for a week was a top-of-the-line AWD Activ model with a few options like the panoramic sunroof, Convenience package, and upgraded sound system for a total of $33,800 before destination. Which seems pretty expensive. However, a Honda… Continue reading Chevrolet Trailblazer test drive.
2026 VW Polo.
VW ended production of the Polo compact. After 40 years and many generations, the Polo is dead. Or is it? VW showed an ID.2all concept last year that is supposed to be a preview of their upcoming affordable EV. The concept was trying very hard to look like the original VW Golf, which was designed… Continue reading 2026 VW Polo.
Chrysler Le Baron sedan.
While Chrysler used the Le Baron name starting in 1931, these are mostly forgotten except for a few hardcore car historians/nerds. The actual first generation came out in 1977. That would be the larger older Le Baron that most people alive today actually won’t remember… The first generation came out in 1977. It was also… Continue reading Chrysler Le Baron sedan.
2025 Ford Expedition.
Ford has released a new teaser for the 2025 version of the Expedition SUV. Unlike what the teaser says, this will not be an “all-new” Expedition. It might look new to current owners, especially with its new face and redesigned interior. But it won’t be that new. It will be the Ford equivalent of the… Continue reading 2025 Ford Expedition.
