2017 Opel Zafira
Since it’s been around for a few years, GM feels its time to give the current Zafira a new face. A new face that looks older, that is. The new car is the one in white, on top. And I think it looks less modern (or weird) than the outgoing model. (bottom picture) I guess… Continue reading 2017 Opel Zafira

2017 Porsche Panamera
Looking much better than the current model. This is what it should have looked like in the first place. So, nothing scary here, just basically correcting the mistakes of the previous version. Which is just fine. From what we have seen of the interior, it is also much nicer and almost futuristic. (Although the current… Continue reading 2017 Porsche Panamera

2017 Honda Odyssey
There it is again. The next Odyssey. It does look pretty slick already. Seems that everyone knew that Chrysler was coming up with something pretty modern. So now it’s time to catch up. Not sure from these pictures if the rear side window will be getting a similar treatment is has now. But there is… Continue reading 2017 Honda Odyssey

New Peugeot 3008
This looks pretty cute. I mean, not very simple. There are a lot of lines. Within what is basically a very conservative silhouette . And a bit too many plastic chrome pieces everywhere for my taste. ( I had seen that on some recent Renault models while I was in Europe last year) These chrome… Continue reading New Peugeot 3008

The shape of things to come…
Or not. Who knows, really. I thought I would jut repost these. From what we have seen the Civic hatchback seems pretty realistic. Not sure where BMW will go with the actual i5. And Volvo definitely should build this coupe version of the gorgeous S90 sedan. But I think the new small sedan/crossovers previewed by… Continue reading The shape of things to come…

The future of the Genesis brand
They are basically following Infiniti, more or less. Coming up with a whole new brand based on a separate RWD platform. The big G90 is already out. That’s the one almost nobody will actually buy. (As not many people are ready to spend over $60 000 in a Korean car in the US.) The G80… Continue reading The future of the Genesis brand

New Buick GL8 Minivan
Another “for China only” Buick. The GL8 minivan has been around for about 16 years. The current generation came out in 2010. So it is time for a new one. The one pictured above will follow the trend of replacing the V6 with a 2.0 Liter Turbo. And of course, it’s not coming over here.… Continue reading New Buick GL8 Minivan

Got a write-up in Jalopnik
Back in 2009!! I never check these things and just found out today. Over 6 years later. How weird. If I only knew. It doesn’t really matter, as I still feel good about it. And wanted to say thanks to Mr. Hardigree. Who might or might not even work there anymore.

Volvo Concept 40.2
Now this is the “regular” hatchback compact model. And it also looks really original. Again, very Volvo like. Without looking like a small S90. And it is still a hatchback. With a few SUV design cues. Like that black arches around the wheels. This would really stand out if they kept the changes to a… Continue reading Volvo Concept 40.2
-
Volvo Concept 40.1
This is basically a concept version of the upcoming small XC40 SUV. And I think it looks great already. Hard to tell what will be left of this for the production model. (The XC90 was toned down a lot from the concept) But this does look almost production ready. It looks like a Volvo without… Continue reading Volvo Concept 40.1

2017 Buick Lacrosse price
So far, we only know the base price, which is $32 990. Or about $1000 more than the outgoing model. But that base model for 2016 was really “basic”. The 2017 comes standard with a 305HP V6 and Apple CarPlay. While this seems to be quite a deal compared to other near luxury sedans, it… Continue reading 2017 Buick Lacrosse price

Renault Kwid crash test
Think you’d like to buy a Renault Kwid? Well, first, you can’t. Unless you live in India. Maybe you live in Europe and thought this would make a really cool small Dacia model. Or here in the US, maybe Nissan could import it and finally make your dream of a $6000 Nissan come true. None… Continue reading Renault Kwid crash test

Chevrolet Camaro test drive.
Let me start by saying that yellow is really not a color I would ever get on a car. (The one pictured here is actually called “Bright Yellow”…) Besides the color, I was still able to appreciate the design. The new Camaro does look great in person. A perfect blend of retro cues and a… Continue reading Chevrolet Camaro test drive.

2017 Audi A5
Wow… How sad is this. An official teaser from Audi, showing a camouflage prototype of the “all new” A5. And, of course, it looks like the same car as the one we have now. Just like the A4, it will be a slightly squared off version of the current model. With the new A4 terrible… Continue reading 2017 Audi A5

2017/18 VW Jetta?
Another Chinese car toy leak. And it does look like this could be our next Jetta. A similar sized model called the lamando has been on sale in China for a while. It is based on the same platform as the current Golf (Our Jetta is based on an older platform) So this seems to… Continue reading 2017/18 VW Jetta?

New Volvo Concept coming up
As early as next week. Which is a surprise. This looks production ready to me. So it might be one of these “fake concepts” that is just the production model with bigger wheels and a bunch of crazy details. Not sure what it is, but there have been rumors of a small XC40 SUV for… Continue reading New Volvo Concept coming up

Chevrolet Avalanche wannabe: 2017 Silverado High Desert pack
You just know that with all these pick up truck sales going up, GM must regret not having a new version of the Avalanche. (Which was discontinued when the current Silverado came out) So there is it: a new option pack. Which turns the current Silverado into an “Almost Avalanche”. And why not. It doesn’t… Continue reading Chevrolet Avalanche wannabe: 2017 Silverado High Desert pack

2017 Chevrolet Cavalier
No, it’s not actually coming back. Well, it is. But in China only. The new Cavalier is smaller and cheaper than the Cruze. It is powered by a small 1.5 Liter engine. And I am sure Chevrolet is not interested in another small sedan for its us portfolio. From what we can see on these… Continue reading 2017 Chevrolet Cavalier

2016/2017 Fiat 500 Abarth
Just like the regular 500 did a few months ago, the Abarth version gets a few modifications. It’s even more aggressive looking now. Not sure what that is coming over to the US. I would say for the 2017 model year. But we are still waiting for the revised “regular” 500. So who knows…

Lexus LC
Just a few new pictures. (Or at least they are new to me since I haven’t seen them before) This particular one is the Hybrid version. While it does look great even in red. (Most pictures of the LC are of the red one) In a more “regular” color it looks really fantastic. Even the… Continue reading Lexus LC

More pictures of the all new Alfa-Romeo Giulia
It finally looks really nice in a classier color. So far they have mostly been showing the 510HP V6 Quadrifoglio version. The one almost nobody will actually buy. Now we see the real thing, closer to what will actually be in the streets. Most models we will be seeing will be powered by a 2.0… Continue reading More pictures of the all new Alfa-Romeo Giulia

No “Next” Buick Verano for the US
There IS already a brand new Buick Verano. Based on the new Opel Astra. But it is just for China, and apparently, it will stay there. Which is kind of too bad. I mean, I know the market is changing to SUVs. Small near luxury sedans aren’t really setting the world on fire these days…… Continue reading No “Next” Buick Verano for the US

2018 Kia GT
Kia has been testing a production version (top) of the 2011 GT Concept (bottom)for a while. As you can see, it looks fine and pretty much ready to go. And, pretty close to the concept. But it’s been 5 years. Five-years…. So nothing futuristic here. Seems like it could be based on the Hyundai Genesis… Continue reading 2018 Kia GT
