Test Drives

For some odd reason, Honda decided to bring back the good old Prelude. A two door coupe that was produced for 5 generations from 1978 to 2001.. By that time, almost nobody was buying 2 door cars anymore. And the really cool 5th generation Prelude was history. People still don’t buy 2 door cars but… Continue reading Honda Prelude Test Drive.

I was very fortunate enough to drive a brand new Honda Prelude for a whole week. I was really looking forward to it and was very curious. Please watch the very short video above describing my experience with Honda’s new 2 door coupe. As everyone knows, the Prelude is now a Hybrid. And in the… Continue reading Honda Prelude Test Drive Video.

That’s right, I have a brand new Honda Prelude to drive for a whole week. As you can see, the color has already turned some heads and this is not a ride for someone who doesn’t want to get noticed… Many have been bashing the new Prelude even before it came out. “It looks like… Continue reading Honda Prelude Road Test Coming up.

A few weeks ago I had the chance to drive a new Nissan Leaf for a week. While I’ve already posted a review, I hope this short video is a bit more entertaining. The Leaf is of course a vast improvement over the previous generation. And it is one of the rare EV available in… Continue reading Nissan Leaf Test Drive Video.

With around 17,500 sold last year, the Nissan Armada is a pretty rare sight in the US. At least where I live. It is a Japanese alternative to much more popular giant American SUVs like the Chevrolet Tahoe and Ford Expedition, which is quite a tough spot to be in. Let’s see if it offers… Continue reading Nissan Armada Road Test: Big SUV, Old Fashion Rough Ride.

The Nissan Leaf is all-new for 2026, and it shows. It is such a vast improvement over the previous generation. Visually, it’s finally a very modern-looking car. Unlike the second generation, it truly looks all-new. It also has a friendly, non-aggressive design, which is very refreshing these days. Inside, Nissan has done a great job… Continue reading New Nissan Leaf road test.

I am currently driving a brand new Nissan Leaf for a few days, and the model I have is the Platinum Plus trim. Which is the top of the line for the new Leaf lineup. I have been driving up to San Francisco on a small road trip and will report on the car in… Continue reading 2026 Nissan Leaf road test coming soon.

Why don’t you join me in watching this short (but sweet) video about my experience with the Nissan Frontier pickup? The current Nissan Frontier came out in 2020 and received a mid-cycle facelift (as they call it) last year. It is powered by a big 3.8-liter V6 engine paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission. On… Continue reading Nissan Frontier video test drive.

I just got a new Nissan Frontier to test drive for a week. The version I am driving is the Pro-4X. Which is far from being the base model. As it starts at around $42,000. While the basic Frontier S is around $10,000 less. As you can see, there are a lot of different versions… Continue reading Nissan Frontier Test Drive coming up.

I personally think the Hyundai Ioniq 5 is one of the most interesting-looking cars around these days. It reminds me a lot of the work of my favorite car designer, Giorgetto Giugiaro, especially what he came out with in the 1970s and early 1980s. It just looks like a futuristic version of the first-generation VW… Continue reading Hyundai Ioniq 5 test drive coming up.

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.
