• 2017 Toyota Corolla

    The Corolla gets a new front end for the new year. And it’s just fine. Inside it looks like the changes are limited to a larger screen. Which is also fine. I think the current generation looks OK. It has more style than before, without scaring anyone. (Like the new Civic which might have gone… Continue reading 2017 Toyota Corolla

  • Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV

    Finally, pictures of the US version. It has been years… I think it looks fine, inside and out. I know most people love to hate Mitsubishi these days, but I really think this looks just fine. The weird thing is that Mitsubishi still has no official specs for the car. “the Outlander PHEV will offer… Continue reading Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV

  • Volvo S90 US pricing.

    The all new Volvo sedan will start at $46 950 in the US. That gets you a 250HP T5 model. The 316HP T6 model goes for $52 950. Now, lets compare that to its competition: -Mercedes E-Class $52 650 (The “old” 2016 model) -BMW 5 series $50 200 -Audi A6 $46 200 -Lexus GS $45… Continue reading Volvo S90 US pricing.

  • 2017 Subaru Impreza Hatchback

     At least this does look better than the outgoing, blocky, model. Seems a bit lower, with a much nicer stance. And the interior has finally entered the 21s century. (Although not by much) But, what’s with the 90’s tiny sunroof option??? It is powered by a revised “revised version” of the usual 2.0 Liter with… Continue reading 2017 Subaru Impreza Hatchback

  • 2017 Acura MDX

    They did it. They finally got rid of that weird “beak/shield” grille they were putting on everything. And they replaced it by… another ugly design! I mean what the hell is that??! And they just added a giant version of their logo on it, to make sure we know what it is. (That logo is… Continue reading 2017 Acura MDX

  • 2017 Subaru Impreza Sedan

     The production model (Top) is, again, different enough from the recent concept that it pretty much ruins the design. I mean, the Impreza has been one of the worst looking small sedan for years now. Everyone is making an effort to stand out a little bit. Improve their design. (Look at the Civic!) Instead, Subaru… Continue reading 2017 Subaru Impreza Sedan

  • 2017 Mercedes GLC Coupe

    Forget that stupid “coupe” name.  What you see here is the C-Class Hatchback. Slightly raised up. And I think it looks great. So we’ll be probably getting the same engines as on the C-Class sedan. They do mention the new 9 speed Auto ( I think the C-Class still ash the 7 speed. For now… Continue reading 2017 Mercedes GLC Coupe

  • 2017 Mazda MX-5 RF

    What the hell is that?? I am actually not the biggest fan of the “new” Miata’s design. ( I liked the previous one better) And I always thought the hardtop version of the previous design was fine looking. But this?!?! I mean, look at that fake side window! That is one big piece of black… Continue reading 2017 Mazda MX-5 RF

  • Lincoln Navigator Concept

    Quite a shocker. I am not sure what to say. At forst, I hate it. Especially the horrible new Lincoln grille. They finally got it right on the MKX and they ruined it with the Continental and revised MKZ. On second thought, I really like the simplicity of the whole design. (Still hate the grille)… Continue reading Lincoln Navigator Concept

  • 2017 Chevrolet Colorado

    Just got this so I thought I’d share. (I’m not even sure if this is the US version or not. Really…) I drove the Colorado a few months ago and was pretty impressed. Except for the anemic V6, it drives great. (I guess the diesel option fixes that) So it’s good to see GM keeping… Continue reading 2017 Chevrolet Colorado

  • 2017 Buick Encore

    Since we saw it’s European Opel clone a few weeks ago, there are no surprises here. As predicted, it is an Opel Mokka with a Buick grille. Which is just fine. The new interior is a big improvement. It makes the old one look quite cartoony. As for the engine, I am not sure what’s… Continue reading 2017 Buick Encore

  • Malibu Hybrid; 47MPG (46HWY)

    A pretty amazing figure for quite a large car. It uses a version of the Volt power train, with a larger 1.8 Liter engine. And obviously, no pure EV mode. Although, apparently, it can still reach 50MPH before the engine starts. (With a very light foot I bet) That compares very well to its competition:… Continue reading Malibu Hybrid; 47MPG (46HWY)

  • 2017 Chevrolet Sonic

    I always liked the Sonic. I know it’s not a very popular car. Squeezed in between the Spark and the Cruze. It’s in a weird position, since the Cruze doesn’t cost that much more. Although they still sold 64 775 units last year. (About twice as many as the Spark) The slight updates for the… Continue reading 2017 Chevrolet Sonic

  • 2017 Honda Civic Hatchback

    I did have an accurate picture of this a few weeks ago. So this is not a big surprise. Still, a welcome addition to the US Civic line up. Now it can do battle with the Focus, Mazda3 and Cruze Hatch when it comes out later this year. How about a Del Sol version next?

  • 2018 Buick Regal?

    This was just sent to me. I guess it looks like some report about various upcoming GM cars. It all seems to make sense (Except maybe a Cadillac ATS convertible?) The most interesting part would be the “weird” picture of the new Regal. Which will be a “non-hatchback” version of the all new Opel Insignia… Continue reading 2018 Buick Regal?
