Not sure actually. This looks really close to the current model. (Silver car on the bottom) But it also looks a bit different. So it could be the new one. Who knows…. An all new LS Sedan is due out in October.  That we know. We also know it will be based on an all… Continue reading 2017 Lexus LS?

 Weird unexpected news… The “smaller than Rogue” will be sold in the US for 2016. It is about 10 inches shorter, and of course, only seats 5 (The Rogue does have a 3rd row option) But, after seeing a few in Europe, it does look sportier than the Rogue. At first they almost look the… Continue reading Nissan Qashqai coming to the US.

This is pretty much the newest generation of what was sold here as the Montero Sport. Up until 2004. Mitsubishi seems to be abandoning the sedan market. At least in the US. To concentrate on SUVs and EVs. (What a weird combo) So this could very well make it over here. Just like the old… Continue reading 2016 Mitsubishi Pajero Sport

In that version, the new front end looks more subtle than ever. Well, maybe not ever. But at least the last 15 years, where grilles have been getting bigger and bigger with every redesign. The main other news is the new 8 speed automatic. And Apple car play or Android Auto inside. I am not… Continue reading 2016 Chevrolet Silverado

 No big news. The Lexus ES is another car many people love to hate. Although it sells very well. (Over 72 000 units last year. ) That’s because it does its job very well. And this little update really makes the car look better. The grille finally works. They have finally figured out about how… Continue reading 2016 Lexus ES

Not sure. Although it does match all the spy shots we have already seen of the car. Lots (and lots) of people love to hate the Prius design. I don’t. I think the current model looks OK. ( with over 120 000 sold in the US last year, I am not the only one). I… Continue reading 2016 Toyota Prius?

Of the pink kind.

The all new Talisman replaces the Laguna sedan. A new name, for what looks to be a more upscale model. It almost looks German. 

Finally, official pictures. Only current owners will be able to tell the difference. Very small changes and updates. Engine choices should even be the same as before.

Here is the best pic of the interior so far. Not an “all new; interior. (The doors look the same) But the dash has a new screen etc… I guess this might be enough for 2 to 3 years, until a real all new model comes out…

Yes, why. Why bother redesigning a car to make it look exactly the same? Why not just “improve” the current one? Why ruining the interior? Why a 1996 design for a 2016 model? I understand the “classic”, “understated” excuses. But understated doesn’t mean you copy the same design over and over. This becomes one of… Continue reading 2016 Audi A4: Why???

 OK… This is horrible. I mean really. This is in NO WAY better looking than the current model. Of course, it is lighter, more fuel efficient, and has yet another Audi take on “new” headlights. But this is supposed to be an all new car. Even BMW does a better job. This is by no… Continue reading 2016 Audi A4

 This looks like an official teaser from Fiat. As you can see, they are really proud of the new LED tail lights. I must say, they do look really cool and original. And finally, a great design use of LED technology. But at the same car, the car seems to already be everywhere. There are… Continue reading 2016 Fiat 500

Thought I’d share this picture of the “sportier” RS package for the new Cruze. Plus, it’s in another color . Not the horrible bright blue Chevrolet thinks looks great on everything. (They’ve used that blue on the new Volt too)

The XT5 will be replacing the popular SRX Crossover. At first it does look a little weird to me. The front end looks like it was designed for larger headlights. There’s plenty of space for it. It just looks a bit off. And the grille is big, yet seems too “soft”. The rear looks like… Continue reading Cadillac XT5

So far, the only god picture of the interior. Looking quite nice. A bit better than the exterior, I think. It does look higher end and more original than the new Jaguar XE (But what doesn’t, really) I also like it better than the BMW # series interior. And from what we have seen of… Continue reading Alfa Romeo Giulia interior

It’s all new and it doesn’t look at all like the previous one. Something that cannot be said of that many cars these days. I think it looks a bit busy. For my taste. Which ends up being a bit anonymous. And the interior needs to loose all the small shiny bits. Brush aluminum is… Continue reading 2016 Chevrolet Cruze

There is a new rumor about the next VW Jetta. Apparently, it could be very similar to the recently introduced Lamando. The Lamando is, so far, a model sold only in China. But China and the US already share the larger “non German” Passat. So why not the Jetta (Which doesn’t sell well in Europe… Continue reading VW Lamando = 2017 VW Jetta?
