2023 Hyundai Santa Fe: new spy shots…
It looks like a next-generation Hyundai Santa Fe is just around the corner. Showing plenty of Land Rover Defender vibes in these new spy shots. This is a total departure from the current generation design. And also, any current Hyundai product. Interestingly enough, the prototype above shows some sort of aero-wheel design. (Unlike the one… Continue reading 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe: new spy shots…

2023 Mercedes EQS SUV: US pricing…
The new SUV version of the Mercedes EQS sedan will start at $104 400 in the US. (Or about $2500 more than the sedan) There are many versions available, and the cool 56-inch “Hyperscreen” pictured above is available in the EQS 580 4MAtic model for $126 000. But the “base” Premium RWD model is already… Continue reading 2023 Mercedes EQS SUV: US pricing…

2023 BMW XM: new patent images…
These new patent images show the clear differences between the production version of the BMW XM, and the concept. Things have been toned down quite a bit for production. As expected. It’s really too bad about the rear lights. Since the ones in the concept were truly original. and probably feasible for production. The most… Continue reading 2023 BMW XM: new patent images…

2023 Kia EV9: new illustrations…
These new illustrations seem pretty realistic. Obviously based on the recent photos we just was a few days ago. Showing a slightly toned-down design from last year’s concept from the Los Angeles Auto Show. The production model still looks quite goofy. But at least, it won’t be a boring sight. This will surely stand out… Continue reading 2023 Kia EV9: new illustrations…

2023 VW Tavendor: official photos…
The Tavendor is a new VW SUV for the Chinese market. Size-wise, it fits right in between the Atlas and Tiguan. When compared to US models. I guess this will stay in China since VW is concetrating on EVs for our market. Not sure how roomy this is, but it does look quite a bit… Continue reading 2023 VW Tavendor: official photos…

2024 Hyundai Tucson: new illustration…
This is a weird one. I guess, eventually, the Tucson will get some modifications. Some sort of a mid-cycle facelift as they call it. But this illustration seems way early. And really horrible. The current Tucson is really good looking. A larger squared-off grille like the one on the 2023 Palisade would be quite a… Continue reading 2024 Hyundai Tucson: new illustration…

2023 Buick Envista: official photos…
The new 2023 Buick Envista is a very stylish crossover for the Chinese market. It will fit in between the Encore GS and the Envision. In China, prices will start at the low $20 000s. In the US, the Encore GS starts at around $27 000. While the Envision starts at under $32 000. A… Continue reading 2023 Buick Envista: official photos…

2023 Kia EV9: official spy photos…
Today we get to see how close the production Kia EV9 will be to the concept. And it’s really close. It seems most of the toy-like aspects of the design have been retained. For better or worse. The main difference seems to be that goofy-looking chrome trim on the side. Or maybe that’s also part… Continue reading 2023 Kia EV9: official spy photos…

2023 Mazda CX-70: new spy photo…
Mazda has released very few new models in the past few years. Sure, we just got the CX-50. Which is specific to North America and based on the CX-30. And Europe just got the RWD-based CX-60. (above) The big news will be the CX-70 and CX-90 for our market. All are based on the new… Continue reading 2023 Mazda CX-70: new spy photo…

2023/24 Jeep Jeepster: first look inside…
This is the first time we get to see the interior of the all-new compact Jeep crossover. We’ve talked about this a few times before. This time we also get to see a manual version. Which also means it’s not an EV. The interior seems fine. With a few nice touches. As previously mentioned, this… Continue reading 2023/24 Jeep Jeepster: first look inside…

2023 Kia EV9: new spy shot…
The mew we see of the production model, the more it actually looks like the concept. In this new photo, the rear lights seem almost exactly the same. As well as most of the rest of the car. Again, I saw the EV9 concept in person last year and was not impressed. It was just… Continue reading 2023 Kia EV9: new spy shot…

2023 Volvo EXC-90: new illustration…
We just saw patent photos of the new Volvo EXC-90 a few days ago. And we now see some illustrations based on these patent designs. The one above looks really nice in green. Although you can see the general shape is the same as the current model. On sale since 2015. Apparently, a revised XC-90… Continue reading 2023 Volvo EXC-90: new illustration…

2023 Hyundai Kona EV: new illustrations…
Unfortunately, these new illustrations do look pretty close to the recent spy shots we’ve seen. If true, the 2023 Hyundai Kona wouldn’t really be an improvement over the current generation. Which, by the way, still looks pretty good. Although the interior could use something. Anything. This is just way too busy and overdone. These are… Continue reading 2023 Hyundai Kona EV: new illustrations…

Acura PrecisionEV Concept: official pix…
All I have to say is that I was expecting more. More than a sculpture. Acura is indeed hard at work on a new EV SUV based on the Honda Prologue. Both using GM’s Ultium platform. Which will give them similar proportions to the new Chevrolet Blazer EV. Looking more like a sporty wagon. The… Continue reading Acura PrecisionEV Concept: official pix…

2023/24 Hyundai Santa Fe: early spy shots…
It looks like the next-generation Hyundai Santa Fe will adopt a completely different design language. From the first pic, it also looks like there will be no grille. Unless this is an EV version of the Santa Fe. (Which would be a first) I’m sure the current model is a fine SUV. But it looks… Continue reading 2023/24 Hyundai Santa Fe: early spy shots…

2023 Dodge Hornet: official photos…
As expected, this is the worst-case scenario… The “new” Dodge Hornet is the exact same car as the Alfa Romeo Tonale we saw just a few months ago. Except for tiny changes like a new front end, revised lights, etc… This might derail the more expensive Tonale in the US. And maybe sink the… Continue reading 2023 Dodge Hornet: official photos…

2023/24 Mercedes EQE SUV: a look inside…
While the all-new SUV version of the EQE sedan is still a couple of months away, Mercedes has just released a few interior shots. And of course, they, unsurprisingly, look almost exactly the same as the sedan interior. Which itself looks practically the same as the larger EQS and EQS SUV interior. (bottom pic) Displaying… Continue reading 2023/24 Mercedes EQE SUV: a look inside…

2023/24 Toyota CH-R: new illustration…
This new illustration shows what a next-generation Toyota CH-R could look like. With just around 35 000 sold in the US last year, I think a next-generation is highly unlikely. At least in the US. We also haven’t seen any prototypes. The closest thing to a new CH-R is this “Small SU EV” we saw… Continue reading 2023/24 Toyota CH-R: new illustration…

Acura Precision EV Concept: video teaser…
This is the first time we get to see anything about the upcoming Acura Precision electric crossover. It will share its GM Ultium platform with the Honda Prologue. Itself sharing a lot with the new Chevrolet Blazer EV. Apparently, the production version of the Precision Concept could be called ADX. And we will see the… Continue reading Acura Precision EV Concept: video teaser…

2024 Honda Pilot: new illustrations…
These new illustrations show what the next-generation Honda Pilot could look like. While the prototypes driving around are still covered in plenty of camouflage, these renderings look pretty realistic. Showing yet another super boring Honda design. Looking like a big 2023 HR-V. We already know the next Pilot will be based on the same… Continue reading 2024 Honda Pilot: new illustrations…
