It’s little wonder that Acadia is one of the most-visited national parks in the […]
EVs might offer a number of advantages over their gas-burning predecessors, but cold-weather performance isn’t one of them. The massive batteries that power today’s EVs are particularly susceptible to the cold, sacrificing up to 25% of their range at highway speeds and up to 50% when driving around town. Some models perform better in cold […]
Winter driving can be a real challenge between slick roads, plow trucks, and the visibility issues caused by tall snowbanks. In an ideal world, drivers could wait until a storm has passed to pick up their kids or go about their daily commute, but sometimes, venturing out in challenging winter conditions simply can’t be avoided.

Jeep’s compact Compass manages to embody everything there is to love about the storied brand while delivering a well-rounded crossover SUV that makes for an exceedingly practical daily driver.

In the current EV ecosystem, the Tesla Model Y is the undeniable king of the jungle. This compact SUV has quickly grown into the brand’s best-seller, with Tesla moving over 1.2 million units globally in 2023 alone. That’s an impressive number for any vehicle, especially an EV. In fact, the Model Y is now the […]
After 15 years in the making, the sixth-gen 4Runner certainly looks to be worth the wait. Toyota has not only modernized this driver favorite but also added two new trims to the mix—the off-road-focused Trailhunter and the luxurious Platinum—bringing this SUV’s towering trim ladder to nine distinct levels. This can almost be a little intimidating […]
Once upon a time, driving a vehicle for hire required special licensing, a taxi medallion, and—in the case of a limousine—a snappy black suit. That all changed when popular rideshare services like Uber and Lyft debuted in 2009. Like Doordash and Airbnb, Uber and Lyft turned a well-established industry on its head, and while we […]

The Tucson defies its budget-oriented price with a sleek exterior, well-appointed cabin, and a lavish range of interior tech and safety features. The crossover is also notable for its roomy cabin with 39 cu.ft. of cargo room that rivals the rest of the compact class in terms of pure space. There’s a lot to love […]
Digging through the data can prove helpful when trying to pick between the many Chevy trucks for sale. Take the Silverado 1500, for example. The full-size pickup regularly places towards the top of the US sales charts with Chevy moving over 500,000 units in 2023 alone. The story is largely the same for Chevy’s midsize […]
It takes a lot to stand out in the ultra-competitive midsize luxury SUV segment, but the Lincoln Nautilus has managed to garner its fair share of attention since first hitting the market in 2019. Lincoln doubled down on everything there is to love about the Nautilus with the debut of the second-generation model in 2023 […]
The Jeep Gladiator is a unique fusion of a traditional pickup, and the rugged, go-anywhere adventure vehicles that off-road has become famous for. Sure, it’s got a 7,700-lb towing capacity that puts it right at the top of the midsize segment, but it also has a removable top and doors, not to mention those little […]

Infiniti has carved out a reputation as a brand that knows a thing or two about luxury, but the Japanese automaker has been a little quiet as of late. Infiniti hasn’t rolled out a new model since the QX55 in 2021, and its full-size SUV offering––the QX80––was starting to look a little outdated with the […]
From changing the oil and filters to rotating your tires and replacing worn-out belts and pulleys, routine car maintenance can be a little overwhelming.

Debuting in 2023, the RZ is built on the same e-TNGA platform as the Toyota bZ4X and Subaru Solterra, though it’s a decidedly more luxurious […]
There are some big changes afoot at Jaguar. In recent years, the luxury brand has played second fiddle to Land Rover in terms of both sales and the amount of attention it has received from its parent company. Jaguar moved just 43,000 units in 2022—a figure that’s dwarfed by Land Rover’s 280,000 sales over the […]
In the automotive world, evolution is everything.

Over the last decade, this trend has largely played out in the form of new […]
