New Volvo EX60.
It’s no surprise a new Volvo EX60 EV will be replacing the aging XC60 SUV as soon as next year. Or at least be offered alongside the ICE model for a while. The EX60 is supposed to be based on a new platform using mega casting, which will be a first for Volvo. Something Toyota… Continue reading New Volvo EX60.

2025 Honda Freed.
Honda has just redesigned the small Freed SUV/Van, and to me, it looks more and more like a new Honda Element, than ever. Especially the Crosstar trim, with its body cladding and more off-road look. As you can see, the Freed is a Hybrid, which would be another plus for a new-generation Element in the… Continue reading 2025 Honda Freed.

Chevrolet Malibu dies.
Another one bites the dust… Despite recent rumors about a new generation based on the Chevrolet Trax/Buick Envista platform, GM just announced that Malibu production will end in November 2024. This means the planned late May switch to the 2025 model year is probably not happening. The Kansas plant where the Malibu is being built… Continue reading Chevrolet Malibu dies.

VW Magotan.
It seems VW has become a vast sea of look-alike sedans and SUVs. An empty land where bland car designs reign over a sleepy populace. Unlike what most people would think, the Magotan is not a villain from an old Godzilla movie, but a VW sedan sold in China. The new generation pictured above looks… Continue reading VW Magotan.

2025 Jeep Wagoneer S.
While the official early photos of the new Jeep Wagoneer S EV looked really good, these new ones of a prototype caught with a long lens don’t look as great. Since, you know, lens distortion… Still, you can tell the new member of the Jeep family will end up looking pretty impressive in the flesh.… Continue reading 2025 Jeep Wagoneer S.
-
Next Lucid model.
Lucid is working hard on the new Gravity SUV and it is on track for a late 2024 release. I personally saw it inside and out last November and it is quite an impressive vehicle in person. Next is something smaller and cheaper. Just like the Rivian R2. Except it looks like the new Lucid… Continue reading Next Lucid model.
-
Rolls Royce Cullinan Series 2.
Did one of the ugliest vehicles on the road become even uglier? I think so… The Rolls Royce Cullinan SUV came out back in 2018. Already. For over 6 years this monstreous thing has been roaming the earth. And since taste doesn’t come with money, it pretty much immediately became the brand’s best-selling model. After… Continue reading Rolls Royce Cullinan Series 2.
-
2025 Kia EV3.
These are the first 3 teasers for the all-new Kia EV3 EV. Which will be the production version of the EV3 Concept we saw late last year at various auto shows. Again, it looks like Kia was able to retain most of the concept design for the production model. Just like the EV9 and EV5.… Continue reading 2025 Kia EV3.
-
2026 Chevrolet Malibu.
A few of us were expecting a new Chevrolet Malibu for the 2025 model year. Unfortunately, this will have to wait and many tears will flow. The 2025 Chevrolet Malibu will be starting production at the end of this month, and no changes are planned. This means the 2025 Malibu will be a 10-year-old model… Continue reading 2026 Chevrolet Malibu.

Future Lincoln Convertible.
Since I posted an illustration of what a new Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz convertible could look like for the EV age, let’s be fair and show what a future Lincoln luxury convertible could be. Of course, the illustration above has many retro cues, while still looking more modern than anything Lincoln offers today. It would also… Continue reading Future Lincoln Convertible.
-
Subaru Ascent EV.
Toyota just announced they will build a new larger 3-row SUV at their facility in Indiana. Where the current Highlander is being built. As we as the Sienna, Grand Highlander, and Lexus TX. The only EV Subaru currently offers is a version of the Toyota bZ4X called the Solterra. Subaru announced last year their plan… Continue reading Subaru Ascent EV.
-
2026 Toyota Starlet.
There seems to be a persistent rumor about a next-generation Toyota Starlet coming in 2026, or next year as a 2026 model. Weird because there’s really no need for this since Toyota already sells the Yaris around the world. I think the part of the rumor that is probably true is the name. It could… Continue reading 2026 Toyota Starlet.
-
2025 Kia EV6.
Just like the Hyundai Ioniq 5, the Kia EV6 will be getting a few changes for the new year. So far so good. It seems Kia has actually simplified the design, which is always good. In my not-so-humble and non-expert opinion, the current front end never really matched the rest of the design. It seems… Continue reading 2025 Kia EV6.
-
Kia EV9 Pickup.
This is quite a peculiar development… The photos above appear to show a pickup version of the new Kia EV9. As you can see, this is not Kia’s upcoming pickup truck, the Tasman. The Tasman truck will be sold in many countries, but not the US. Because of the antiquated “Chicken tax”, it would be… Continue reading Kia EV9 Pickup.
-
2025 Rolls Royce Cullinan.
The $400,000 Cullinan SUV has to be the ugliest Rolls-Royce ever produced, by far. It is an insult to the brand and a shrine to vulgarity. And yet, it is also, by far, the best-selling Rolls Royce model. Of course, since, SUVs… For the 2025 model year, Rolls Royce will change a few things here… Continue reading 2025 Rolls Royce Cullinan.

Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz.
And why not… In a world where Cadillac is getting ready to sell the new Cadillac Celestiq, a $350,000 4-door hatchback EV, why not dream of another land yacht, a new Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz? And yes, to fit into Cadillac’s current state of mind (and the automotive world’s future in general) this would be an… Continue reading Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz.

2026 Toyota RAV-4.
These are some of the very worst illustrations I’ve been able to find of the next-generation Toyota RAV-4. The new RAV-4 is still supposed to be shown at the end of the year. Toyota might choose the Los Angeles Auto Show in November to show it, just like they did with the 2025 Camry. Which… Continue reading 2026 Toyota RAV-4.
-
2026 Toyota Highlander EV.
Toyota is working on a new 3-row EV SUV that could be called the Highlander EV. They just announced a new $1.4 Billion investment in their Indiana factory for an all-new large 3-row EV SUV. The new model is expected to start production in 2026 and will not be the same vehicle as the other… Continue reading 2026 Toyota Highlander EV.

Lynk & Co. Zero.
The Lynk & Co Zero will be a new EV sedan from the Gelly group. As such, it will be closely related to the new Zeekr 007 we saw a few months ago (3rd pic). Although it seems the Lynk & Co version could look even more modern than the Zeekr sedan. The Lynk &… Continue reading Lynk & Co. Zero.

Ford Future EV pickup.
Ford is coming with 2 new EV pickups. A brand new electric pickup was due for next year. It seems that it was going to be something smaller than the current F-150 Lightning. Which is a full-size huge pickup. Since that announcement, Ford has slightly revised their EV plans. The new pickup was also planned… Continue reading Ford Future EV pickup.
