There’s really nothing new with this new Crosstrek version. It will be getting a new treatment similar to what we’ve seen in the Wilderness versions of the Outback and Forester. Which is mostly a more off-road capable set of features. Which, I think is a great option for many Subaru fans. The ones who actually… Continue reading 2024 Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness: new teaser.
2025 Nissan Maxima: new illustration.
The current generation Nissan Maxima production is ending this spring. Which is probably in just a few days (maybe they even stopped already?). There will be no 2024 Maxima, but it is rumored to make a return for the 2025 model year, as an all-new electric sedan. The design is rumored to be influenced by… Continue reading 2025 Nissan Maxima: new illustration.
Genesis GV80 Coupe Concept.
This new Genesis GV Coupe Concept is a preview of what we will see in a few months. The GV80 SUV is due for a mid-cycle refresh, which will see the addition of a new coupe version, as well as the usually revised front and rear ends. Up front, the new grille on the concept… Continue reading Genesis GV80 Coupe Concept.
Honda CR-V PHEV.
I mentioned this car a little while ago. It’s not a unicorn and it really exists. Honda is actually producing a plug-in Hybrid version of the new CR-V. And as you know, it’s not coming over here and is so far a Chinese market product only. The PHEV model is powered by a 2.0 Liter… Continue reading Honda CR-V PHEV.
2025 Toyota Corolla: new illustration.
To much of Elon Musk’s chagrin, the Toyota Corolla is still the best-selling car in the world, and will probably be for a while. The super popular car has sold over 1.12 million units last year. Over 222 000 of these were in the US alone. The current generation came out in 2018, which means… Continue reading 2025 Toyota Corolla: new illustration.
2024 Toyota Century SUV: new illustrations
The illustrations above show what an SUV version of the Toyota Century could look like. The super conservative design is probably a good guess, since the sedan is one of the most traditional looking cars in the world. Of course there will be a Century SUV, since there will be an SUV version of everything.… Continue reading 2024 Toyota Century SUV: new illustrations
2024 Kia Sorento: new illustration.
This new illustration shows what the facelifted Kia Sorento could look like for the 2024 model year. And it’s probably really close. And not an improvement over the current model. As it seems busier than ever. The real need for change is inside, where it’s more than busy. Let’s hope the infinite sea of silver-painted… Continue reading 2024 Kia Sorento: new illustration.
Lamborghini’s first EV: new illustration.
Since everyone will eventually be making electric cars, it’s interesting to get a little bit of news about what Lamborghini’s very first EV will be like. According to recent rumors, it will probably be a 4-seater GT car, and not an SUV or a supercar. The new EV is still a few years away and… Continue reading Lamborghini’s first EV: new illustration.
2024 Audi Q6 e-tron: new illustration.
This new and very realistic illustration of the upcoming 2023 Audi e-Tron is obviously based on the recent “official spy shots” released by Audi just a few days ago. It could therefore be about 99% accurate. Since it’s an Audi, the design includes their patented “nothing surprising” feature. We’ve all seen it before. But it’s… Continue reading 2024 Audi Q6 e-tron: new illustration.
2024/25 Lexus IS: patent photos.
These new patent designs show a very similar car to the concept we saw back in late 2021 as part of the giant Toyota/Lexus EV preview, where they showed over 15 EV concepts. By then the sedan was rumored to be a replacement for the Lexus IS. Or just be the next IS sedan. It… Continue reading 2024/25 Lexus IS: patent photos.
2024 Porsche Cayenne: exterior.
These blurry shots were taken from the revised 2024 Porsche Cayenne interior display. Showing the exterior changes to the SUV, which, as predicted, aren’t much. And aren’t an improvement either. I don’t know what Porsche is on this weird quest to get rid of their iconic circular or oval headlights on everything they make. It… Continue reading 2024 Porsche Cayenne: exterior.
GMC EVs: new illustration.
GM has already announced it will not be competing with the Ford Bronco with a new ICE model. This makes sense since they have been very hard at work converting everything to EVs. The next-generation ICE models will be either mid-cycle facelifts, like what Cadillac is doing with the XT-4 and CT5 (revised CT4 and… Continue reading GMC EVs: new illustration.
2024 Smart #3: official spy shots.
Following the current trend, Smart has released official photos of one of their Smart #3 prototypes driving around. I guess these photos are of better quality and offer less distortion from long-zoom lenses than the ones published by spy photographers. But we have just seen photos of the real thing anyway (Pic 3 & 4),… Continue reading 2024 Smart #3: official spy shots.
2024 Porsche Cayenne: a look inside.
The Porsche Cayenne SUV is getting some revisions for the 2024 model year. For some reason, Porsche has chosen to give us a look at the interior first. This probably means the exterior is not that different except for the usual new lights and bumpers. Inside, the Cayenne is getting an all-new dashboard design. And… Continue reading 2024 Porsche Cayenne: a look inside.
New Honda EVs: teaser.
The new teaser Honda just released shows us what could be a production version of last year’s e-N2 EV concept. Although it already doesn’t look as angular and weird. The 2 cars shown in the teaser also look very similar, probably one being a more luxurious version. These models are of course not for the… Continue reading New Honda EVs: teaser.
Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness: new teaser.
It seems like Subaru has found a way to do what so far seemed impossible: add even more black plastic crap to the new 2024 Crosstrek. (bottom pic is the regular 2024 Crosstrek) A new Wilderness model is coming to the New-York Auto Show on April 5th. Subaru already offers Wilderness versions of the Forester… Continue reading Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness: new teaser.
Jaguar future EVs: new illustrations.
As we know, Jaguar is still on track to become an all-electric brand by 2025. Or just over a year and a half from now. That means only the i-Pace EV will be left from the current lineup. All other models will be based on the new Panthera platform. We will apparently see a “preview”… Continue reading Jaguar future EVs: new illustrations.
2024 Kia EV9: GT-Line and specs.
Kia has released more info about the new 2023 EV9 electric SUV. As well as photos of the sportier GT-Line version. As you can see, the EV9 GT-Line follows the same recipe as the EV6 GT-Line. Which basically means more black trim and a more agressive front end. And even more black inside. The EV… Continue reading 2024 Kia EV9: GT-Line and specs.
2024 KIA EV9: video.
Here is a short video where you can “kind of” see the all-new Kia EV9 in motion. There’s plenty of fantastical imagery, trying very hard to make you think the new EV9 is something so special it could even be from another world. But it’s not… It does look very modern, even futuristic. And from… Continue reading 2024 KIA EV9: video.
2023 Renault Espace: official.
Back in 1984, the original Renault Espace was the first European Minivan. The current generation (bottom pic) came out in 2015 and it still tried really hard to look like a Minivan and not an SUV. That has changed for the new 2023 model, which is now a full-blown 3 rows SUV. Renault has completely… Continue reading 2023 Renault Espace: official.
