Test Drives

While the all-new redesigned 2026 Toyota RAV4 was introduced a few weeks ago, most journalists and YouTubers had not driven it yet. That happened a few days ago at an event organized by Toyota. Then all of a sudden, yesterday, the results of all these test drives appeared online. Since I didn’t get to participate… Continue reading 2026 Toyota RAV4 reviews news are in!

We’ve been hearing about Nissan‘s “e-Power” hybrid system for years. It has been on sale around the world for a while, and yet, nothing here yet. I had the chance to drive a Nissan X-Trail for a couple of days in Europe a few weeks ago. The X-trail is basically the same car as our… Continue reading Nissan Rogue/X-Trail “e-Power” quick drive.

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.

This is a short video of my 2-day drive with a Volvo V60 Cross Country. The Cross Country is the slightly raised and AWD version of the Volvo V60 wagon. And the only version of the wagon available in the US, at a starting price of around $55,000. The current Volvo V60 came out in… Continue reading Volvo V60 Test Drive video.

I had the chance to review the new Honda Passport a little while ago. And this is a very short video showing some of my experience. I have been a fan of the Honda Passport for a while. However, the previous generation was looking really old, and a new generation was really needed. I really… Continue reading Honda Passport review video.

I had to rent a car for a few days, and I ended up with a Kia Niro. Which is something I was curious about anyway. I haven’t driven any Kia vehicles for a few years and was always interested in the 2nd-generation Kia Niro. Especially since currently, Kia is offering these for the crazy… Continue reading Kia Niro EV quick drive.

The new Honda Passport is a great-looking SUV. Far nicer than the previous generation, which came out in 2018. And was based on the even older previous generation Honda Pilot The new design resembles a larger version of the Ford Bronco Sport. And it just looks really good from every angle. The interior, although very… Continue reading Honda Passport test drive.

Here are a few previously posted videos. All about cars, I have been lucky enough to drive for a week. As you can see, Honda loves grey… All good cars featured in these videos, but very few stand out in the end. The Acura ADX was not really a disappointment since I wasn’t expecting much.… Continue reading Test Drive videos.

I will be driving a new Honda Passport for the next few days. As you can see from the paperwork above, it is a loaded Elite trim. However, not the “Platinum white” mentioned as the only option. Mine is just gray… I drove the previous generation Honda Passport a couple of times and thought it… Continue reading Honda Passport test drive coming up.

This is just a short video about the few days I spent with the Acura RDX. The trim I had was the A-Spec model, which was loaded. While it is pretty quick, I wouldn’t call the RDX sporty. It handles very nicely and feels upscale. But its steering feel is always a bit too light.… Continue reading Acura RDX video.

Since it came out back in 2018, I’ve driven the Acura RDX a few times. It is rumored to be canceled at the end of next year, and I thought it would be interesting to drive it one more time in 2025. I personally think the design has aged very well. However, I never got… Continue reading Acura RDX review.

Please join me and watch this short video showing a bit of my experience driving a Honda Accord Hybrid for a week. I had test-driven the Accord Hybrid a couple of years ago, and somehow, liked it much more this time around. I guess my expectations were different this time around. And I wasn’t comparing… Continue reading Honda Accord Hybrid test drive video.

The curent Honda Accord generation came out in late 2022. I drove it in 2023 and have to admit I was a bit disappointed when comparing it to the previous generation. It seems I wasn’t the only one either. Over 2 years later, I drove it again for a week and ended up with a… Continue reading Honda Accord Hybrid test drive.

Why don’t you join me and watch this short, but hopefully sweet, video of the hatchback version of the new Honda Civic Hybrid? Despite a few flaws (and who doesn’t have any…), the Civic Hybrid is an excellent choice. It drives very well. It is comfortable and has a wonderful powertrain. It also has a… Continue reading Honda Civic Hybrid hatchback video.

For 2025, Honda made a few exterior changes to the Civic. None of these really improved the car at all. The current generation design looks OK. However, in my uninformed and unprofessional opinion, it never looked as good as the previous generation… That new huge, and mostly fake, lower plastic grille/trim thing doesn’t help things… Continue reading Honda Civic Hybrid hatchback test drive.
