SUVs/Trucks

I was actually surprised by the news this morning. Acura has decided to kill the ZDX, and production of the EV has already stopped. Acura unveiled the ZDX in November 2023. I remember thinking it looked a bit weird, but actually much better in person at the Los Angeles auto show that month. Production started… Continue reading R.I.P Acura ZDX.

The VW ID.4 received a few major changes for the 2025 model year in the US. But it will still be redesigned completely for the 2027 model year. Inside and out. The illustration above suggests a redesign that would turn the ID.4 into a larger ID. Cross. Which would be a great idea. Volkwagen CEO… Continue reading Next-generation VW ID.4

It’s no secret Mercedes has been working on a smaller, less expensive off-road vehicle inspired by the original G-Class truck. Apparently, Mercedes is now saying it will have its own platform. So it won’t exactly be a smaller G-Class. The second image in an official teaser from Mercedes was released a few weeks ago. And… Continue reading Mercedes “G-Class Mini”.

It seems we are now getting new illustrations of the next generation Hyundai Tucson almost every day now. Of course, some seem pretty realistic. And others seems to have been done by a 9 year old nerd with a 1990’s computer. I posted a spy shot of the real thing at the bottom. Showing what… Continue reading Next-generation Hyundai Tucson.

The top image shows the actual production version of the all-new Volvo EX60 EV. As it seems they have started building pre-production units of the new model. The Volvo EX60 will be a new EV sold alongisde the ragular,and aging, XC60. Which is Volvo’s most popular model. Volvo isn’t saying much so far except fot… Continue reading Volvo EX60.

This new illustration shows what a next-generation of the Toyota Corolal Cross SUV could look like. Something that still seems very close to the curent model, unfortunatelly. The current Corolal Cross got a few revisions for the 2026 model year (2nd image). But none that made it look much better than before. Back in 2020,… Continue reading Next-generation Toyota Corolla Cross.

The Jeepster was quite an interesting old Jeep model. It came out in 1948, back when Willis still owned the brand. With Jeep covering many new, different markets these days, it makes you wonder what a new compact Jeepster convertible could look like. I personally think going the retro route would be best (like the… Continue reading Jeep Jeepster.

Both the Lincoln Corsair and the Ford Escape are scheduled to disappear before the end of the year. The recent announcement of Ford’s all-new “Lowcost” EV platform basically killed these 2 SUVs. The Kentucky plant where the Escape and Lincoln Corsair are being built is currently being retooled for the first all-new models based on… Continue reading Next generation Lincoln Corsair.

Hyundai is working on a new generation Tucson SUV for next year. And it will look quite different from the current model. As Hyundai had announced a while ago at the Santa Fe launch, its new designs will not all look the same. It also mentioned that the new 2nd-generation Nexo was going to influence… Continue reading Hyundai Tucson.

The recent introduction of the all-new BMW iX3 was the beginning of a new design language for BMW. Very soon, it seems most of their current models will adopt redesigned front ends and new taillights. With grilles and headlights similar to the new iX3 and upcoming i3 EV sedan. While the first in line will… Continue reading 2027 BMW X1.

The VW ID.4 already received quite a few changes for the 2025 model year. Including a new powertrain, batteries, and much-improved software. These revisions are quite extensive, but the ID.4 basically looks the same as when it came out a few years ago. We have heard for a while about some kind of redesign for… Continue reading VW ID.Tiguan.

There is a new rumor going around in Europe about a possible new generation Ford Focus appearing in a year or two. And of course, it would be an SUV. Or at least some crossover-type vehicle. Which I guess is what’s been happening for years now. Even the good old low and sporty European Ford… Continue reading Next-generation Ford Focus.

These previously posted illustrations from Japan show what is believed to be Toyota’s smaller Land Cruiser model. Called either land Crusier FJ, or Compact Cruiser. Or anything else that can think of… The design is pretty much what we expected after seeing the Compact Cruiser concept back in 2021. And especially the teaser shown at… Continue reading Toyota Land Cruiser FJ.

This is a short “official” video showing the all-new Mercedes GLC Electric (OR GLC EV, or GLC with EQ Technology.. Or whatever they decide to call it…) in action. And yes, it basically looks like a compact SUV hiding behind a huge, ghastly, and vulgar grille. Mercedes has decided to add this grille to everything… Continue reading Mercedes GLC Electric Video.

I thought the 2nd generation Kia Telluride would be out by now. Since we’ve seen the new pallisade for a while. Still ,all we have are these 2 illustrations. If the images above are close to the real thing, the second generation design won’t be an improvement over the one we have now. Far from… Continue reading Kia Telluride.
