    As you all know, I get a lot of crossovers to review. Not a shock considering the popularity, take a look at any parking lot you’re in and I guarantee it’ll be the prevailing body style. Unless you’re in Texas which will be mostly pickup trucks. Lexus doesn’t sell a pickup, but they sell quite…

    The Ford Raptor R is a monstrous machine with supercharged V8 power and go-anywhere tires and suspension. It’s expensive… but is it actually worth it? [Disclaimer: Ford tossed us the keys to the Raptor R and included a tank of fuel… which we burned through very quickly.]

    I’m obsessed with the idea of the “forever car”. What is that, great question. A rich and powerful person, a genie, or a government official, appears and says that you can have one car, for free, but you have to keep it forever. All of the fuel, maintenance, insurance, all that stuff is on you.…

    When I posted about the delivery of Honda’s new Pilot TrailSport on my Twitter account, the reactions were mixed. Some who are into serious off-roaders thought it looked like it was “trying too hard”. My first impression was that it was a nice beefy package with actual all-terrain tires that might be worth a look.…

    The Lexus ES was, at least for a significant period, a bit of a tarted up Toyota Camry. However, while it is true that the first five generations were basically built off of the Camry platform, the sixth generation ES (2013-2018) was really closer to the Avalon XX40 and the Lexus RX than the Camry.…

    The Kia EV6 GT cranks out 576 horsepower. It can rip from 0-60 mph in just 3.2 seconds. And if you fancy getting sideways, there’s a Drift Mode that cuts power from the front motor. Sure, $62,000 is a lot of money but maybe not for a vehicle that has plenty of room inside, a…

    Howdy hoons, it’s me Will, and I’m back with more new car reviews. I’ve been on a crossover bender, there was Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron, the Toyota Venza, and now they sent me this VW ID.4 AWD Pro S. This is my second go in the all-electric ID.4, I spent a week with a 2021…

    This car review gig can be a challenge at times, particularly coming up with new and (hopefully interesting) things to say about different cars each week. Part of the reason is that all new cars these days are inherently good. Whether you are measuring performance, economy, comfort, or a whole host of other parameters, modern…

    We are at the dawn of the “electrify all the things” era in the automotive industry, and Audi is off to a great start. As of the 2023 model year, in addition to the standalone e-tron SUV (in regular and sportback versions) and the e-tron GT sports sedan, Audi offers the Q4 e-tron, which also…

    Just about every automaker is hard at work creating purpose-built EVs, or adapting electric versions of existing platforms. Unsurprisingly, the Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis umbrella of vehicles is no different with lots of all-electric models available now and more on the way. I just drove the Genesis GV60 electric and it was quite good. I…
