    Back when… – Back when families were buying wagons. – Back when GM had a tiny cute concept under the GM brand. – Back when Giugiaro was designing a Hyundai Concept. – Back when Citroen was using pretty girls to advertise their ugly Ami 6.  – Back when car designers were creating automotive history. And… Continue reading Cruising Instagram…

  • 2020 Land Rover Defender

    This does look like a fine update of the old design. Although, as I mentioned before, the super fans of the old one might still hate it. But really, some people will hate anything new. Let’s hope they planned for an EV version of this. This could be a big hit for them if priced… Continue reading 2020 Land Rover Defender

  • 2020 Kia Xceed

    These are the first official pictures of the all-new Kia Xceed.  Looking great. So far, this will be mostly a  European model. Based on the Ceed hatchback. (A version of the new Ceed is coming at lest to Canada as the new Forte5. But no official plans for the US yet) As much as I… Continue reading 2020 Kia Xceed

  • 2020 Ford Puma

    The new Puma looks pretty cute. It seems like a high riding chunkier version of the current 2019 Ford Fiesta. (The one we don’t get in the US) Which it probably is… At least in Europe, it will be available with a choice of 2 engines, both Hybrid. And both using the 1.0 3 cylinder Turbo… Continue reading 2020 Ford Puma

  • 2020 Audi Q7

    I would call this a very successful mid-cycle refresh. While not all new, the 2020 Q7 finally looks good. (The current model is the white car) I was never a fan of the super boring current generation Q7. But for 2020, the changes are pretty important. Even inside, where all-new dashboard and console bring the Q7… Continue reading 2020 Audi Q7

  • 2020 Land Rover Defender

    We finally get to see what the all-new Land Rover Defender will actually look like. And I think it looks just fine. So far it seems a nice modern rendition of the classic design. But you know the puriss will hate it. Just like they hated the DC100 concept back in 2011. Back then, Land… Continue reading 2020 Land Rover Defender

  • Cruising Instagram…

    – Interesting early takes on the first generation VW Golf. (We are so used to the round headlights, these square ones look really strange…) – If the 1989 Cadillac Solitaire, or something close to it, had gone into production, Cadillac would be so far ahead of where they are now… Everything they have these days,… Continue reading Cruising Instagram…

  • 2020 Cadillac XT-5

     Cadillac has made a few small changes to their popular XT-5 for 2020. At least for the Chinese market. (the US will follow shortly) And they are hard to tell. The one thing they should have done, to begin with, gives it a proper name. Like Lincoln did when they updated the MKX to the Nautilus.… Continue reading 2020 Cadillac XT-5

  • 2020 Audi A3

    The next generation, and all new, Audi A3 seems to be just around the corner. And it does look quite nice. Even though it still looks like an Audi, this is much more stylish than the current one. The model pictured here will be a new raised up version. Like VW does with almost all… Continue reading 2020 Audi A3

  • More Fisker SUV teasers

    These all look great. But they also look a lot like a concept car, not a production model. As there are no cuts for front or rear bumpres at all. (Unless they photoshop them out for the pictures?) These are also pretty early. As they claim the car will be shown in December. That’s about… Continue reading More Fisker SUV teasers

  • 2020 Kia Seltos

     The all new Kia Seltos has been unveiled in India. Although these pictures show the model for the local market, the US version is not expected to be much differnt. Except of course, we won’t be getting the diesel engine… It does look fine. Strangely, the official pictures are not really the best. The front… Continue reading 2020 Kia Seltos

  • 2020 Cadillac CT4

    So far we have only seen the “V” version of the “all new” Cadillac CT4. The top picture gives us a look at the regular model. Which, as expected, is basically the same thing with more chrome bits and slightly smaller wheels. And no spoiler. Again, notice how similar the CT4 is to the “discontinued… Continue reading 2020 Cadillac CT4

  • 2020 Peugeot 2008

    I always though the current 2008 was a weird mix of “blah” and somehow,”overdone”. (I saw a few of them in Europe over the past few years) This all new second generation seems to be far less “blah”. And much more stylish. (Although that could also be seen as “overdone”…) At least it will stand… Continue reading 2020 Peugeot 2008

  • 2020 Renault Captur

    Not sure if this is all new or not, but the 2020 Renault Captur looks a lot like the current model. I guess it is different enough to be called “new”. The side windows do seem a bit smaller. Which is a trend in SUVs these days: less visibility. The current Captur is still pretty cute.… Continue reading 2020 Renault Captur

  • 2020 VW Sharan Minivan

    The Sharan is VW’s European minivan. It has never been sold in the US. The one we had here for a while, a few years ago,  called the Routan, was just a Dodge Caravan with a VW face and a few small other changes. The current Sharan is in its second generation. The current one… Continue reading 2020 VW Sharan Minivan

  • Fisker SUV teasers

    So far, this looks really cool and modern. (Especially the real picture at the bottom) It also looks like a production-ready model. Fisker not only claims it will be built in California, but it will start at under $40 000! With a 300 miles electric range available. Which would be quite amazing. That means at around the… Continue reading Fisker SUV teasers

  • 2020 Kia Cadenza

    Pretty big changes for this cycle refresh of the big (but not the biggest) Kia sedan. The front end is all new, and that grille is quite massive. It could very well be a severe case of “too much” in real life… New, more interesting lights in the rear. And that new dashboard and console… Continue reading 2020 Kia Cadenza
