The new Acura Integra is a very good-looking and impressive car in real life. Although it was criticized by many when it first came out, the real thing looks very good in the flesh. And it actually doesn’t look like it’s related to the Honda Civic at all, just like previous generations. The Integra is… Continue reading Acura Integra Test Drive
Cadillac Escalade IQ
The all-new Cadillac Escalade IQ will be unveiled next week on August 9th. As we already know, it will not be related to the “regular” Escalade but will instead be based on GM’s Ultium platform. It will actually be more like a Cadillac Version of the Hummer EV SUV, which means its range could be… Continue reading Cadillac Escalade IQ
2025 Fisker Pear
Fisker has finally officially previewed the new compact Fisker Pear. (As well as all their other future models for the next few years). The Pear is a compact car that isn’t that small since it will be about 7 inches longer than the Chevrolet Bolt EUV and only about 4 inches shorter than a Toyota… Continue reading 2025 Fisker Pear
2024 Kia K3
Kia just released a teaser for the all-new 2024 K3 sedan. The K3 is the international name of our Kia Forte. For the new generation, the Forte is scheduled to adopt the K3 name everywhere it is sold, just like the Optima became the K5 a few years ago. We’ve seen a few spy shots… Continue reading 2024 Kia K3
Mystery Toyota SUVs
During the launch of the new 2024 Land Cruiser, Toyota briefly showed silhouette photos of 2 upcoming SUVs. The smaller one on the left looks a lot like the really cool Compact Cruiser Concept EV we saw in late 2021, although there seem to be some design changes since the concept made its debut. It… Continue reading Mystery Toyota SUVs
2025 Toyota 4 Runner
Since Toyota just released a brand new Land Cruiser in the US, there have been a lot of talks and questions about a next-generation 4-Runner. Currently, a base 4 Runner starts at a bit above $40 000, which means there’s a lot of room before the Land Cruiser starting price of around $55 000. But… Continue reading 2025 Toyota 4 Runner
2024 Hyundai Santa Fe
The new 2024 Santa Fe has been caught driving on the road and it looks… good? Weird? Both? From all the photos I’ve seen, it’s still too hard to make a judgment. In some colors and trims, it seems to look really nice. In other photos, it seems overdone and dorky. It’s really hard to… Continue reading 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe
2024 Toyota Century SUV
This is yet another illustration of what the giant Toyota Century SUV could look like. And it’s probably pretty wrong, although we’ve seen the general shape before since prototypes have already been caught testing. Unlike the legendary high-end luxury sedan, the SUV will be based on the new Toyota Grand Highlander. It won’t be related… Continue reading 2024 Toyota Century SUV
2024 Acura ZDX
The all-new Acura ZDX is coming soon. n just a couple of weeks, we will see the production version of the Acura ZDX Type-S model. Both the regular and Type-S variants will go on sale early next year. They will be the first Acura models with a new Bang and Olufsen sound system (although the… Continue reading 2024 Acura ZDX
Revised Tesla Model 3 news
We already know a revised version of the Tesla Model 3 code-named “Highland” is coming soon, very soon. As you can see in this previously published spy shot, the whole front end is new. And so will the rear lights and bumper. Inside, the dashboard has always been covered up in prototypes and it is… Continue reading Revised Tesla Model 3 news
2025 Subaru EV SUV
Subaru will add a larger 3-row EV SUV to its lineup in 2025. The new model will be based on the new large EV from Toyota, with a Lexus version (Lexus TZ) coming out as well. While the Toyota and Lexus models will look very similar, let’s hope Subary gets to design its own model.… Continue reading 2025 Subaru EV SUV
2024 Toyota Land Cruiser
The US version of the new “smaller” Toyota Land Cruiser for 2024 is powered by a 2.4 Liter Hybrid powertrain with 326HP. 3 versions will be available: “1958”, “Land Cruiser” and “First Edition”. It seems only the Land Cruiser version gets the rectangular headlights. While 1958 has a smaller 8-inch display, other versions get a… Continue reading 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser
2024 Toyota Land Cruiser: more photos
Well, it definitely looks like Toyota will offer different types of headlights on the new 2024 Land Cruiser and I’m not sure why. The round ones look so cool on the blocky design. We’ll just have to wait a little longer to have the official answer. I also wonder about the price, since a new… Continue reading 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser: more photos
2024 Toyota Land Cruiser
These are early photos of the all-new 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser for the US. As predicted, it looks much like the recently introduced 2024 Lexus GX, but I think the Toyota looks much better. The retro front end and colors in the top photos look great. And Totota design a different interior too! While not… Continue reading 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser
2024 Lotus Envya
When comparing these new spy shots of the upcoming Lotus Envya to the new Lotus Eletre, it seems clear that Envya is trying hard to be a sedan version of the SUV, as they are obviously related visually. Although the sedan seems to have some double stacked up front light design the SUV doesn’t have.… Continue reading 2024 Lotus Envya
New Mitsubishi Compact SUV
It looks like Mitsubishi was able to retain most of last’ year’s XFC Concept design for their new compact model. Although the new model is not scheduled, so far, to be sold in North America or Europe, it is the same size as the aging Outlander Sport offered here. The current generation of Outlander Sport… Continue reading New Mitsubishi Compact SUV
Mazda MX-30 dead.
The Mazda MX-30 EV was a walking dead the day it came out. A terrible 100 miles range had signed its death certificate at birth. It was pretty amazing to see Mazda coming up with such a lame product in 2021 (2020 in other markets). Mazda has promised us a PHEV model powered by a… Continue reading Mazda MX-30 dead.
Next-generation Chevrolet Bolt
Just a few weeks ago it seemed the Chevrolet Bolt was dead. And GM had announced the end of the current model’s production. But the end of production never meant the Bolt was dead forever. And GM announced a new generation just a few days ago. It will of course use the newer Ultium batteries… Continue reading Next-generation Chevrolet Bolt
Ford Bronco Sport “Free Wheeling” video
This official Ford video shows the new Free Wheeling package on the 2024 Bronco Sport. I think it looks great. Again, too bad they didn’t redesign the interior, especially the dashboard. And the red on the wheels might just be a bit much. But at least, it’ll be fun to see these around. Just like… Continue reading Ford Bronco Sport “Free Wheeling” video
Acura Integra test drive coming up
I am driving a new Acura Integra this week and will report on it in a few days. It is a loaded A-Spac model with a 6-speed manual transmission, priced at $35 800 plus $500 for the Liquid Carbon color and $1095 for destination & handling. For a total of $37 395. That is about… Continue reading Acura Integra test drive coming up
