2022 Kia K8: in the flesh…
I think the new Kia K8 looks fine in real-life photos. I even start getting used to the huge face. For some weird reason… Inside, I am still not a fan of that quilted pattern everywhere that some people view as “luxurious”. Otherwise, it does look the part for a large luxurious sedan. I do… Continue reading 2022 Kia K8: in the flesh…

MG X-Tender pick-up truck: the final insult…
That’s right. This is an MG pickup truck. MG is (was ) a legendary British car brand mostly known for its compact sports cars. The famous MGB was built from 1962 to 1995. Seeing the truck above with an MG bad is actually really weird. Sure, lots of sports car makers (soon, all of them)… Continue reading MG X-Tender pick-up truck: the final insult…

2022 Hyunda Staria: more pictures…
These are still computer-generated pictures of the new 20220 Hyundai Staria. But they look great. I am really looking forward to seeing the real thing in actual photos. But so far, the futuristic vibe is there, in a big way. A huge improvement over the competition like the Mercedes Metris. Or anything from Ford… Continue reading 2022 Hyunda Staria: more pictures…

2022 Peugeot 308: forced…
There seems to always be a problem with boring designs. When criticized too much, car makers just go nuts for the next generation. It looks like that’s what happened to the poor Peugeot 308. The previous (current) model was a pretty invisible design. And now we have this extremely overdone design for the new one.… Continue reading 2022 Peugeot 308: forced…

2022 Genesis G70 wagon: new photo…
This is, so far, the best look we have had of the new 2022 Wagon version of the revised Genesis G70 sedan. Not sure how they’ll end up calling it (sport, Sportwagon, etc…) but it will basically be a wagon. From this and previous photos we have seen, it will probably look really good. Genesis… Continue reading 2022 Genesis G70 wagon: new photo…

2022 Subaru WRX: so sad…
I know it is futile to keep hoping for a really cool Subaru design these days. But somehow, I am still shocked when I see things like this. (And I will settle for “decent”.) I know the WRX is a great driving car and has tons of hard-core followers. But why does it have… Continue reading 2022 Subaru WRX: so sad…

2023 Lucid Gravity: patent designs…
The Gravity will be Lucid’s first SUV model, based on the Air sedan. We saw a few quick shots of it a few months ago when they unveiled the production version of the Air. And these patent designs show a production design very close to the concept. Except for the taller profile, which makes sense.… Continue reading 2023 Lucid Gravity: patent designs…

2022 BMW i4 teaser: the electric 4 series…
While BMW’s new iX EV has its own design, it looks like the new i4 EV sedan (top) will be an electrified version of the upcoming 4 Series Gran Coupe. (bottom) Considering how horrible the iX looks, it might actually not be such a bad idea. At least, the 4 doors 4 series is… Continue reading 2022 BMW i4 teaser: the electric 4 series…

2022 Mercedes EQS: new photos…
There is still a bit of camouflage, covering both front ends. And a few bits on the rear window. (Which will probably end up being black like the roof. At least it should…) Otherwise, this is the best look we have seen of Mercedes’s all-new EV. As mentioned before, it basically looks nothing like the… Continue reading 2022 Mercedes EQS: new photos…

2022 Hyundai Ioniq5: European pricing…
This is the official pricing for the new 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 in Germany. Which, at least over there, will come in Base, Plus, and Top versions. The base model is available in Short or long-range, but no AWD. It looks like Long Range adds about 3000 Euros. Same for AWD. And the base model… Continue reading 2022 Hyundai Ioniq5: European pricing…

2022 Kia EV6: new pix…
As we know, the new Kia EV6 will be the Kia version of the Hyundai Ioniq5. With a totally different design. Not sure if it will be priced higher or lower than the Hyundai model. (The Genesis version will be higher for sure) Hard to say how big it is, or if it is lower… Continue reading 2022 Kia EV6: new pix…

2022 Honda Civic sedan: base model pic and engine info…
This is a picture of the all-new 2022 Honda Civic sedan base model. Usually called LX in the US. As for engines, apparently, Honda will offer the same choice as the current generation. Which is a 2.0 Liter for the cheapest versions. With a 1.5 Liter Turbo starting with the EX. The current 1.5… Continue reading 2022 Honda Civic sedan: base model pic and engine info…

2022 Ford Maverick: giving people what they want…
These new spy shots of the 2022 Ford Maverick show a much better-looking truck than any of the illustrations I’ve seen so far. Which is really good news. There is really nothing new about the styling, and this might be exactly what most buyers actually want. A compact pick-up that just looks like a… Continue reading 2022 Ford Maverick: giving people what they want…

2022 Honda Civic Vs. Accord: sharing a profile…
I know, they’re not the only ones doing it. (just look at the new Mercedes C-Class…) But that is never a good excuse for doing something bad. And designing your cars to all look the same is pretty bad. I’ve had multiple comments on the 2022 Civic pix I posted on Instagram from people who… Continue reading 2022 Honda Civic Vs. Accord: sharing a profile…

2022 Buick Envision Plus: and why not…
This is what it looks like when you add a few inches and 2 seats to the new 2021 Buck Envision. And of course, you call it the “Envision Plus” (top) While it’s not terrible, it seems the new Envision loses all its good looks in the translation to a 3 row SUV. I don’t… Continue reading 2022 Buick Envision Plus: and why not…

2022 VW ID.6 Cross: there might be hope…
It looks like the upcoming VW ID.6 will also be offered as a “Cross” version. (At least in China) When compared to the regular ID.6 (the one in pink), I think the Cross model looks a bit better. At least the headlights seem more normal. And that fake SUV trim up front helps a bit… Continue reading 2022 VW ID.6 Cross: there might be hope…

2022 Honda Civic: another version…
These are photos of a different version than the one I posted earlier. This seems to be a more regular trim with chrome trim around the windows. Painted mirrors and wheels. Is it better? No. It still looks like a sad, worse, and smaller version of the 3-year-old Accord. Maybe it looks amazing from… Continue reading 2022 Honda Civic: another version…

2022 Honda Civic: that poor thing…
This is, obviously, the model-specific to the Chinese market. But the US version will be the same car. At least in China, it will be available with a 1.0 Liter engine. Or a 1.5 liter and a 1.5 Liter turbo with 182HP. Which is 2 more than the current turbo available in the US.… Continue reading 2022 Honda Civic: that poor thing…

2022 Hyundai Starex (or Starria): futuristic van…
There have been many photos of the new Starex van on the web for a while now. It seems to be a new small commercial van from Hyundai. From the photo above, there will obviously be a passenger version as well. (the blue one) The interior pic was labeled “Starria”. Which is the name of… Continue reading 2022 Hyundai Starex (or Starria): futuristic van…

Toyota X-Prologue EV: new teaser…
Toyota will finally show us what their first EV will look like. The top photo already shows something that could actually look really nice. But also, something that is quite different from what we saw last year (Bottom pic) The new teaser shows a soft and rounded design that is nothing like what they were… Continue reading Toyota X-Prologue EV: new teaser…
