This is just a short video from Toyota showing their new Crown Signia Hybrid SUV. The new model replaces the Venza, and is positioned above the RAV-4. It still has only 5 seats but is now larger than the Venza was. On its website, Toyota mentions: “Savor every mile in serene comfort when you choose… Continue reading Toyota Crown Signia video.
2025 Toyota large EV SUV.
Toyota has just announced another round of massive EV investment in the US. They will now spend an additional $1.3 Billion in the Kentucky factory that is scheduled to produce 2 new 3-row SUVs. One for Toyota and another for Lexus. The new investment will pay for an EV assembly line as well as battery… Continue reading 2025 Toyota large EV SUV.
2026 Chevrolet Volt?
No, GM is not officially working on a next-generation Chevrolet Volt. At least that I’m aware of… However, recent news about bringing new PHEVs to the US brought back hopes of a new generation Chevrolet Volt. This will probably not happen since it would have taken years for GM to develop a new one, and… Continue reading 2026 Chevrolet Volt?
New Ford “cheap” EV.
According to CEO Jim Farley, Ford has been working on an all-new EV platform for the past 2 years. They created a special team called Team Edison to create this new, much cheaper-to-produce platform for future more affordable EVs. Ford sees its main competition as Tesla, of course, and the many Chinese companies already offering… Continue reading New Ford “cheap” EV.
2025 Porsche Taycan.
The Porsche Taycan EV is getting a few changes for 2025. The main visual changes seem to be upfront, here the whole face is now much cleaner. The top bumper line is much sharper, similar to the new Tesla Model 3. Otherwise, the rear end seems to have been untouched. The interior adds the mandatory… Continue reading 2025 Porsche Taycan.
2025 Mini Cooper Coupe.
Here is another new car that isn’t all-new: the 2025 Mini Cooper coupe. While the electric Mini SE and Mini Countryman are indeed all-new this year, Mini has chosen to save a bit of money with the “regular” Mini Coupe. It is basically a substantial refresh of the previous model. The similarities are easy to… Continue reading 2025 Mini Cooper Coupe.
2025 BMW i5 Touring/5series Touring.
I do love wagons and the idea of an electric one seems fantastic. And yet, all I can think of when looking at these new photos of the 2025 5 series wagon (and its i5 EV twin) is: what a mess… Just like the sedan it is based on, this new BMW wagon is overdone.… Continue reading 2025 BMW i5 Touring/5series Touring.
Mazda CX-5 EV.
Late last year, Mazda CEO Tom Donnelly mentioned the brand will have a new EV in 2025. And that it will use an existing name. This all points to an electric version of the Mazda CX-5. The current generation came out in late 2016, which is over 7 years ago. At first, we all thought… Continue reading Mazda CX-5 EV.
New Chrysler!
Chrysler is getting ready to reveal a new EV next week. The new car will be a concept, unlike the new Jeep Wagoneer S and Dodge Charger we will be seeing in a few weeks. Although the Dodge seems very similar to the concept released last year, and the Wagoneer S is basically the exact… Continue reading New Chrysler!
2025 Toyota bZ1.
While Toyota is pushing Hybrids and PHEVs, they are actively working on many new EVs. The illustration above shows what a small bZ1 could look like. This new tiny and inexpensive electric model would probably never make it to the North American market but could be quite popular in Asia and Europe. just in the… Continue reading 2025 Toyota bZ1.
VW ID.7 S.
The new VW ID.7 S was previewed last year as the “VW ID.Next.” I guess something happened since and VW decided to call the new EV sedan “ID.7 S” instead. This is a VW model for the Chinese market built by SAIC VW, while FAW VW is building the “regular” ID.7. Last April, VW introduced… Continue reading VW ID.7 S.
2026 Chevrolet Malibu PHEV.
Earlier last year, there were a few rumors about an all-new generation Chevrolet Malibu coming in 2025. As far back as December 2022, it was reported the new generation would start production in early 2025, using a modified version of the recurrent car’s platform, which would be just fine since that’s what everyone is doing… Continue reading 2026 Chevrolet Malibu PHEV.
New Mazda CX-70 video.
This is a very short video Mazda did to introduce the world to their new CX-70 SUV. As we mentioned before, this is NOT a new model. This is just a CX-90 with a deleted 3rd row. The two models are actually exactly the same size. This seems like a costly way for Mazda, instead… Continue reading New Mazda CX-70 video.
BMW Neue Klasse SUV.
We already know a production version of the BMW Neue Klasse sedan is coming. BMW mentioned 2025 at the 2023 Concept presentation. The concept design is a very nice blend of futuristic and past BMW styling cues. Something refreshing and far better than their current horribly obnoxious designs. And of course, an SUV version is… Continue reading BMW Neue Klasse SUV.
New Lancia Ypsilon.
We finally get to see what the new Lancia Ypsilon actually looks like, after many, many months of spy shots and illustrations. It basically looks a lot like the other Stelantis models based on the same platform. Like the Jeep Avenger, Fiat 600, and others from Peugeot, Citroen, DS, and Opel. (A new small Alfa… Continue reading New Lancia Ypsilon.
2024 GMC Acadia pricing.
As expected, the new 2024 GMC Acadia will be more expensive than its predecessor. It will start at $ 42,600 for the “Elevation” version. Instead of $38,195 for the 2023 base model. For that extra money, you are getting a much more powerful 2.5 Liter Turbo engine with 328HP, instead of the standard 2.0 Liter… Continue reading 2024 GMC Acadia pricing.
Toyota Prius EV.
The Prius started the Hybrid revolution for Toyota decades ago. A few months before the current new 2023 Prius came out, I remember people wondering if Toyota would ever offer it as an EV. As it turned out, the current Prius was not ready yet. But what about the next one? Of course, it will… Continue reading Toyota Prius EV.
2025 Kia Tasman.
These illustrations show what the new Kia Tasman pickup truck could look like. They look very realistic and do match the spy shots we’ve recently seen of the new truck. The new truck will go on sale in South Korea and Australia. But probably not in the US unless Kia finds a way to build… Continue reading 2025 Kia Tasman.
2025 Ford Explorer.
The Ford Explorer got a pretty heavy refresh for the 2025 model year. Of course, they couldn’t resist making the front grille even larger than ever. Which is pretty sad and, to me, ruins the whole front end. The previous grille was nice and cohesive with the rest of the design. The new one is… Continue reading 2025 Ford Explorer.
2025 Mini Aceman.
It sure looks like the 2022 Mini Aceman concept was actually a very close preview of the 2025 Aceman production model. Mini has just released some “official spy shots” of the new model. Something many manufacturers do these days, like VW and others. They camouflage their cars and drive them around for a fake spy… Continue reading 2025 Mini Aceman.
