When the 2025 Kia K4 hit the market last year and replaced the 15-year-old Kia Forte as the brand’s compact car, it brought a healthy dose of styling and tech to what has become an increasingly neglected segment. From the brand’s signature amber daytime running lights to a unique funky fastback design with hidden rear […]
Over the last few years, we have seen a wave of all-new EV models inundate the market. However, almost all of them have been SUVs of one flavor or another, and they have all traded on a combination of high-performance and premium features that have put them beyond the reach of many car shoppers. It’s […]
Since the debut of the Porsche Taycan-derived Audi e-tron GT back in 2022, Audi has focused its efforts on expanding its electric SUV lineup, launching the Q4 e-tron, Q6 e-tron, and Q8 e-tron. Now, it’s turned its attention back to its electric sedan offerings with the introduction of the all-new 2025 Audi A6 Sportback e-tron. […]
The Audi lineup is in the middle of several major shakeups, and some well-established model names are being moved around to represent different market segments. At the center of the changes is the all-new 2025 Audi A5, which is the successor to the beloved Audi A4 and has no relationship to the existing 2025 Audi […]
When Subaru updated the Forester for the 2025 model year, the changes were so minor that they largely flew under the radar for all but the most passionate Subaru enthusiasts. But it turns out that the 2025 Forester is bringing a major update after all—arriving fashionably late to the party is the newly announced 2025 […]
The last few years have seen the floodgates open when it comes to new EV models, and drivers shopping for an electric SUV have more choices than ever before. However, one name still stands above all others: the Tesla Model Y. With approximately 400,000 units sold last year, not only was it the fourth best-selling […]
There’s a new Nissan Kicks in town for 2025—and we’re not talking about the redesigned second-generation model that Nissan announced back in March. Nope. Nissan has just announced that the first generation model will continue to be available to car shoppers for the 2025 model year under the perhaps overly exuberant name “Kicks Play.” This […]
It’s no secret that midsize two-row SUVs occupy an odd spot in the industry, and the Honda Passport is no exception. Since its reintroduction in 2019, it has struggled to build an identity, unsure if it’s a family vehicle, a premium option, or an off-road adventurer. Well, for 2026, that question has been settled, and […]
The Cadillac XT6 has lived in the shadow of the legendary Cadillac Escalade ever since its debut in 2020. However, its electric replacement looks set to flip the script and become the new halo model for the storied American luxury brand. While an electrified version of the Escalade (bearing the uninspired name of Escalade IQ) […]
It’s no secret that the Chrysler lineup has been getting smaller and more stale by the minute. The last time the storied American brand added a new nameplate to its lineup was all the way back in 2017 when the Pacifica replaced the Town and Country, and with the retirement of the cushy Chrysler 300 […]
These days, compact SUVs are big business, even for luxury brands that built their reputation with high-performance sports sedans, so it makes sense that BMW pulled out all the stops for its brand-new 2025 X3. After all, in the first quarter of this year, the X3 came close to outselling the 3 Series and the […]
Cadillac has been rolling out new EV models at a rapid pace to meet its self-imposed deadline of converting to a fully electric lineup by 2030. The brand’s first EV, the midsize LYRIQ, moved 5,800 units last quarter, and Cadillac has already announced that the line-topping Escalade IQ full-size SUV and the ultra-exclusive CELESTIQ hyper […]
The Honda Civic is the best-selling compact car in America, and it earned that position largely thanks to its exceptional efficiency. When it first debuted in 1972, the Civic shocked the world by meeting emissions standards without any of the power-choking emissions equipment American manufacturers were using. Given that history, it’s somewhat remarkable that the […]
If you are looking for a traditional body-on-frame SUV that isn’t as large as a house and doesn’t have detachable doors, then you have one option available: the Toyota 4Runner. The good news is that it’s an absolutely incredible vehicle, and the fully redesigned 2025 model sticks to the same tried and true formula while […]
Buick may have a reputation for appealing to an older audience, but the brand has been modernizing its lineup at a rapid pace. Now, with the reveal of the all-new 2025 Buick Enclave, Buick has unveiled the capstone of its new lineup and completed its transformation. The 2024 model year saw the introduction of a […]
Kia has been steadily climbing upmarket, introducing stylish new vehicles with premium features, from the Telluride to the EV6. As part of this move, the brand has also been refreshing its sedan lineup, replacing its old economy-oriented options with more compelling models. In 2021, we saw the midsize Optima retired in favor of the stunning […]
The subcompact SUV segment has been evolving rapidly over the past few years. Once viewed as the budget option for shoppers who couldn’t afford anything better, subcompacts are now increasingly capable and comfortable vehicles aimed at commuters and other drivers who simply don’t want something larger even if they can afford it. However, this rapid […]
Almost two years ago, Dodge pulled the covers off its Charger Daytona prototype––an all-electric take on its infamous muscle car lineup. A year later, it announced the “last call” for the HEMI V8 versions of the Charger and Challenger. After that, the brand went radio silent on its plans for the future, and we had […]
When most drivers think of hybrids, they tend to imagine cars like the Toyota Prius, Honda Insight, and Chevy Volt––compact commuter models designed to save fuel above all else. In recent years, this has been changing, as hybrid technology has taken over segments ranging from supercars like the Corvette E-Ray to off-road machines like the […]
The refreshed 2025 Ford Explorer is here, and it’s not particularly exciting––but that’s not a bad thing. Even though the Explorer has now gone untouched for five years, that hasn’t slowed it down. Last year, Ford sold no fewer than 186,799 Explorers, making it the brand’s second best-selling vehicle after the juggernaut that is the […]
