2023 Ford Explorer: mid-cycle facelift coming up…
It’s about that time. The Ford Explorer will be getting a few changes for the 2023 model year. Which means, in a few months. Let’s hope a new dashboard is also part of the refresh. As the current one looks quite messy. With over 226 000 of them sold last year alone, the current generation… Continue reading 2023 Ford Explorer: mid-cycle facelift coming up…

Toyota RAV-4: some new Chinese version…
This is a version of the Toyota RAV-4 sold in China. As you can see, it has a different front end and rear lights. Not sure if they are such an improvement over what we have over here, but at least the grille seems a bit smaller. The current RAV-4 came almost 3 years ago… Continue reading Toyota RAV-4: some new Chinese version…

2023 Hyundai Ioniq 7: new illustration…
This new illustration of what the upcoming Ioniq 7 “Large SUV” could look like is inspired by the recent photo Hyundai teased us with a few days ago. (HERE) But somehow, it doesn’t look as good. The wheel arches are just too thick. Like an older Mitsubishi SUV. And the rear end seems less… Continue reading 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 7: new illustration…

2022 Toyota Tundra: more photos…
We saw that same truck in other pix just a few days ago (HERE). It looks like Toyota isn’t taking any chances. At least visually. The 2022 Tundra just looks like your average huge truck. The rear doors still look weirdly short from that angle. (as they did in the previous photos). The interior seems… Continue reading 2022 Toyota Tundra: more photos…

2022 Hyundai Casper: interior pix!
We finally get to see some photos of the new Hyundai Casper’s interior. And it is almost as cute as the exterior. It also seems very versatile, considering how tiny the Casper is. (About a foot shorter than a Miata). The folding front seats should be standard in more models. The whole interior shows how… Continue reading 2022 Hyundai Casper: interior pix!

2022 Mazda CX-5: official photos…
No big surprise here, since we saw a few spy shots of it last week. For some reason, Mazda has decided to update the CX-5. About a year before its replacement, the CX-50 comes out. This probably means that starting in 2023, the CX-5 will still be offered alongside the new CX-50 for a while.… Continue reading 2022 Mazda CX-5: official photos…

2023 Kia EV4: new illustration…
It seems Kia is on track to introduce a smaller electric model by the end of next year. Called the EV4. It is scheduled to be introduced after the planned “large EV SUV”. The EV4 will be based on the same E-GMP platform as the EV6 and Ioniq 5, but will be smaller. The… Continue reading 2023 Kia EV4: new illustration…

2022 Chevrolet Silverado: better interior pix…
2022 should be a good year for the Silverado. The redesigned interior looks great. Even in the more basic model pictured in the 3rd photo. Also, unlike previously mentioned, the column shifter is not dead. This is actually a good move since some people still like it. The wood trim on the High Country version… Continue reading 2022 Chevrolet Silverado: better interior pix…

Toyota Venza: new face already?
The top photo shows a Chinese market version of the Toyota Venza. With a new face. Which, I think, is a step back from what we have here. The Venza came out in the US just a bit over a year ago, and I really don’t think it will be getting any changes for a… Continue reading Toyota Venza: new face already?

2022 Chevrolet Silverado: that mid-cycle refresh…
GM has been talking about a revised Silverado almost since the day it came out. The current generation was immediately criticized for being too much like the previous version. And it was. To me, every time I drive one of these, I am surprised how much they are the same… I haven’t driven the Ram… Continue reading 2022 Chevrolet Silverado: that mid-cycle refresh…

2023/24 new Hyundai Ioniq models: new spy shot…
Hyundai has released a new teaser for the next 2 models of their all-electric Ioniq line. As you can see, the upcoming “Large SUV” is getting a very modern design (And no name yet. So it might not be called Ioniq 7 after all) While it seems we will be seeing a “concept” version of… Continue reading 2023/24 new Hyundai Ioniq models: new spy shot…

2022 Mazda CX-5: not new…
That’s right, this is NOT the all-new RWD Mazda CX-5 we have all been waiting for. Instead, it looks like Mazda is giving the current generation a facelift. As you can see, it is basically redesigned lights and bumper. For a cleaner, simpler look. Which is just fine. But does it also mean the new… Continue reading 2022 Mazda CX-5: not new…

All-new Dodge Journey: new spy shots and teaser…
While there have been recent talks and rumors about a small Dodge Hornet crossover (Including a PHEV model), I hadn’t heard of a new Dodge Journey. At least not that early. Not before the Hornet. So these are really surprising to me. Especially the first picture, showing the finished model. Maybe it is a European… Continue reading All-new Dodge Journey: new spy shots and teaser…

2022/23 Lexus LX: new illustrations…
Just when you thought the Lexus LX couldn’t get uglier, here we go! These illustrations show what would happen if Lexus designers all got high and drunk while designing the next-generation LX SUV. Let’s hope they took a break, and the real thing looks a bit better. The new LX will, as usual, be based… Continue reading 2022/23 Lexus LX: new illustrations…

2022 Toyota Corolla Cross: hybrid version…
At least from the photos, I am not a big fan of the new 2022 Toyota Cross. It tries really hard to look like a small RAV-4, and somehow, fails. With its huge grille, it just looks too weird and heavy-handed. I think the RAV-4 actually looks much better… A hybrid version (pictured above) is… Continue reading 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross: hybrid version…

2023 VW ID.Buzz: first video walk around!
Of course, this is very early, and the 2023 ID-Buzz is still covered in camouflage. But you can really tell how large it will be. And how amazingly roomy. I hope they increase the range from the current 250 miles of the ID.4. This could really become the coolest minivan available. With a simple, classy… Continue reading 2023 VW ID.Buzz: first video walk around!

2022 Toyota Tundra: in the wild…
These are all-new photos of the 2022 redesigned Toyota Tundra. (Although we have seen it before HERE) It almost looks like a Chevrolet Silverado outside. Since the Chevrolet is also getting a new interior for next year, we’ll have to wait if the new Tundra is also similar to the Silverado inside. The new Tundra… Continue reading 2022 Toyota Tundra: in the wild…

2022 VW Tiguan: US Vs. China…
The VW Tiguan received a few (small) modifications for the 2022 model year. Previously in Europe and now in the US for 2022. But it looks like the Chinese market version got an all-new dashboard the rest of the world didn’t get (As mentioned a while ago) The top part of the dash seems the… Continue reading 2022 VW Tiguan: US Vs. China…

AION V Plus: a larger battery…
The Aion V is a Chinese EV that came out last year. Not the company has unveiled the “Plus” model with a larger battery, rated at about 276 Miles in the Chinese cycle. Which is not bad at all. This kind of looks like a “Chinese Bolt” to me. (It is actually about 16 inches… Continue reading AION V Plus: a larger battery…

2022 Hyundai Casper: one cute little thing…
One design department that is NOT on Auto-Pilot is Hyundai. They have been coming out with tons of original designs. Some end up a bit weird, but at least they are really trying something new most of the time. Case and point: this new little Hyundai Casper. Proving that a super cheap model doesn’t have… Continue reading 2022 Hyundai Casper: one cute little thing…
