Hyundai Creta: now a baby Tucson...
2022/23 Ford sedan: ???
Of course, Ford has officially announced it would not be producing cars for the US market anymore. Except for the Mustang. Everything else is now SUVs or trucks.
So it is odd to see this almost ready brand new Ford sedan testing in the US. It is probably another Chinese market-only model. Unless they somehow decided to come up with a new electric sedan based on the Mach E?
I think this is actually based on the Chinese Evos hatchback. A sedan version of that model with its own design. Too bad, this would have made a very nice new Fusion. A PHEV-only sedan could be nice.
I guess I will NOT be seeing this at the upcoming Los Angeles Auto Show next month...
GMC Electric Pick-up: new sketch...
We already know an Electric Chevrolet Silverado is coming very soon. And you can bet GMC will be getting its own version of it. Since not everyone wants a 1000HP Hummer.
That front end alone is a huge improvement over the current cartoonish grilles GMC is offering these days.

Tesla Model 3 price increase: Even Google cannot keep up...
No other manufacturer in the world would get away with it. The excuse is always some BS like "supply chain issues". While part and chips shortages are big problems, no other manufacturers have increased their MSRP by that much in such a short time. This has to do with manufacturing plants, small capacities, manipulating the market, etc... But mostly with putting more cash in Elon Musk's pocket.
Just a few months ago, the cheapest Model 3 was $36 990. It is now $7000 more. Or almost 20% in 8 months!
A year ago, the Model S base price (long-range) was down $69 420. As soon as the new interior was unveiled, the price jumped by $10 000. It is now a crazy $95 000! Or $25 000 in one year. Sure, you do get a redesigned interior. (although no other manufacturers increase their price by 15% when they redesign an interior). Still, it also increased by $15 000 since the new interior was introduced.
It makes you wonder how long they can get away with this...
