We saw NEVS’s secret Emily Sedan project a few weeks ago. We even saw the stunning convertible version. Now we see what seems to be the rest of a family of all-new electric models NEVS was working on. A new family of cars that was supposed to be an electric successor to the Saab 9.3.… Continue reading SAAB/NEVS: Meet the new family.
2024 Cadillac GT4.
Not a CT. Not an XT. This new Cadillac compact model is a “GT”. The all-new GT4 is a brand-new entry-level model for the Chinese market. It is a regular ICE model powered by a 1.5 Liter Turbo or even a larger 2.0 Liter. No official specs yet but it really looks like a Chevrolet… Continue reading 2024 Cadillac GT4.
2024 Buick Envision.
It looks like Buick is in quite a hurry to redesign the front end of all their current models. That new face is now on the Encore GX as well as the new Invista. It is also on the new Chinese market Lacrosse and is coming soon to the Regal refresh in China. (Apparently, the… Continue reading 2024 Buick Envision.
2024 Fiat 600.
Just a few more photos of the new Fiat 600. These photos were obviously shot during the filming of a promotional video in Italy. While it looks a lot like a stretched new 500, it is actually related to the new Jeep Avenger and Opel Mokka X. Which means it will probably be offered as… Continue reading 2024 Fiat 600.
2024 Cadillac CT6.
We already know GM has developed a second-generation Cadillac CT6 sedan. Although that new model will not make it to the IUS and will only be sold in China. As usual with most ICE models these days, it is heavily based on the previous generation. Although exterior and interior designs will be all new. At… Continue reading 2024 Cadillac CT6.
Renting a Tesla Model 3.
A couple of weeks ago, I decided to see how easy, or not, it was to rent a Tesla from Hertz. Friends from out of state had done it a few months ago and I thought a 2-day trip to Joshua Tree with friends would be a perfect way to test drive a Model 3.… Continue reading Renting a Tesla Model 3.
2024 Toyota Tacoma.
The new generation 2024 Toyota Tacoma is the worst-kept secret in the car business. The top photo shows the real thing. Toyota has shown a few teasers in the past few days. Showing a removable speaker, and a 3 pedal set up among other details. We already know at least one version will be a… Continue reading 2024 Toyota Tacoma.
2024 Lexus TX.
This is the very first teaser for the all-new Lexus TX. The TX is basically a more luxurious version of the new Toyota Grand Highlander. With its own design and interior but exactly the same proportions. At least Toyota has been putting a lot of effort over the years to make the Lexus ES look… Continue reading 2024 Lexus TX.
2024 Fiat 600.
The all-new Fiat 600 was caught during a photo shoot, just like the new Mini a few weeks ago. The new basically looks like a longer 4-door version of the new 500EV. But it’s actually a different car that has more in common with the new Jeep Avenger since it is based on the same… Continue reading 2024 Fiat 600.
2024 Volvo EX30.
We’ve seen a few spy shots of the upcoming Volvo EX30 EV before, but these are our first look at the upcoming electric compact Crossover. And I think it looks great. Usually these patent images are not the best way to discover new cars, but this is looking really good so far. I think it… Continue reading 2024 Volvo EX30.
Maybach: a rant.
Like many others, I saw the unveiling of the new Mercedes GLS 600 Maybach a few days ago. And it made me realize how low the Maybach name has fallen. Back in 1997, when Mercedes revived the name as a high-end luxury brand, most people had never heard of Maybach. But why not. I guess… Continue reading Maybach: a rant.
Next-generation Toyota Camry.
These are the very first spy shots of the next-generation Toyota Camry. So far with all the camouflage, it is very hard to see how different the new model will look. While the Camry has never had a super exciting design, it actually always looked quite different from one generation to the next. Of course,… Continue reading Next-generation Toyota Camry.
Future Honda/Acura EVs: new illustrations.
Just a few days ago, Honda announced they will be retooling their Ohio plants for EV production by 2025. We already know an all-new Honda Prologue will be based on the Chevrolet Blazer EV and will share its Ultium platform from GM. It will also be built by GM starting in 2024. As well as… Continue reading Future Honda/Acura EVs: new illustrations.
2024 Buick Lacrosse.
The newly redesigned Buick Lacrosse will be a Chinese market product only. While sales of large sedans have been tanking over here in the past few years, that hasn’t been the case in China where the Buick Lacrosse is still quite popular. I really want to like a large Buick sedan, but this new Lacrosse… Continue reading 2024 Buick Lacrosse.
Next-generation Buick Regal: new illustration.
The Buick Regal disappeared from the US back in 2020. It was basically an Opel Insignia sold in North America under the Buick Regal name. The second generation Insignia first came out in Europe in 2017, where it was sold until last year. But it is still produced and sold in China. Where it is… Continue reading Next-generation Buick Regal: new illustration.
New sub-$10 000 GM EV.
This cute little EV is called the Wuling Bingo. It just went on sale in China at a starting price of around $8500. And goes up to about $12 100. For that price you get a standard 17.3 kWh battery good for a 127 miles range in the local test cycle. You can also get… Continue reading New sub-$10 000 GM EV.
SAAB/NEVS Emily project: the convertible.
That’s right. Not only was NEVS working on a super cool 4-door sedan EV with very strong Saab vibes called the Emily Project, but they also designed a fantastic-looking convertible version! This would have been a true 21st Century successor to the classic Saab convertible. Although it seems the rear seats would have been really… Continue reading SAAB/NEVS Emily project: the convertible.
Lancia Gamma EV: new illustration.
As we’ve just seen the first sign of life from Lancia a few weeks ago with the new Pu=Ra HPE concept, we now start seeing illustrations of the possible production versions of future new EV models. The illustration above takes as many design cues possible from the concept and adds them onto a more SUV… Continue reading Lancia Gamma EV: new illustration.
2024 Toyota Camry: new illustration.
We already know there will be a new Toyota Camry for 2024. As well as a new RAV-4. This new illustration shows what the next-generation Camry could look like. It basically could go either way. It could be a very similar design to the current model, or Toyota could “go nuts” and pull a 2023… Continue reading 2024 Toyota Camry: new illustration.
Saab/NEVS EV: more photos.
Just a few days ago, we saw the first pictures of a stillborn NEVS Emily EV project. Something like this would have been a perfect new SAAB. But NEVS never got it off the ground and Saab is still a zombie. Which is really too bad. The working prototypes built show such a great-looking car.… Continue reading Saab/NEVS EV: more photos.
