    This is the Maserati Ghibli SQ4 GranSport. It looks nice. It sounds fine on the outside. And it’s comfortable enough inside. And none of that is really good enough based on how much Maserati wants you to pay for this thing. The biggest problem the Maserati Ghibli has, is that other better options exist… and…

    Jaguar F-Pace …SVR. Oh the noise. The raucous 550-horsepower supercharged V8 engine sings a symphony that’s deep and beautiful. And then it’s interrupted by fire belches, and it makes everything better. This is a machine that, if you still don’t like crossovers, will make you realize that perhaps you should soften that stance. Yes, we’d…

    The idea of taking a nearly-$200,000 Range Rover SVAutobiography Dynamic and getting it covered in dust and dirt, is quite appealing. Until something goes wrong. Shod with 22-inch wheels and low-profile tires, the uber-lux Land Rover has the internal strength to go anywhere but it’s wearing the wrong shoes. And we found that out at…

    Hyundai has our attention with this one… Say hello to the RM19. RM stands for “Racing Midship”, which means this is essentially a race car with the engine placed in the middle. That engine comes from the Hyundai Veloster N TCR race car, so it’s a turbocharged 2.0-liter four banger that cranks out nearly 400…

    Maybe not by my video, but by the Jeep Gladiator certainly. The Jeep Gladiator has been a long time coming. It’s finally here though, and it’s as good as we’d hoped it would be! It’s also… expensive. This one we’re testing? It’s a Rubicon version and costs around $56,000. That’s a ton of bucks for…

    A 2020 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 with the V6 gasoline engine will cost you at least $44k. If you want the 2.8-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder version, you’re starting at just under $48k. That’s a lot of money for a truck, but it’s one that’s quite capable and good at playing in the spaces where the pavement has…

    The Chevy Blazer is back! Chevy has revived its Blazer, but this is no real-deal SUV. The new Blazer is built on the bones of a crossover. Does that matter? Depends on who’s asking really. For the average consumer it’s fine. And the average consumer is who matters to most car makers. So what’s this…

    The RSR Rebel Porsche 911is a beautiful and brutal ode to the race cars from a bygone era. RSR Rebel cars pay homage to the Porsche 917 race cars. These were wicked machines that went crazy fast while wearing equally insane color schemes. These now iconic cars are remembered by, not just Porsche fans, but…

    The Vanderhall Venice Speedster is one unique machine. And one is exactly the number of people who can sit in this thing. Vanderhall has taken its entry-level Venice model and removed a seat. Then a bit of extra bodywork has been applied, and the result is a vehicle called the Venice Speedster. Power still comes…

    The 2019 Audi Q3 packs top-tier features in a smaller package. Audi has taken some of the best safety and tech options from its larger, more expensive vehicles and filtered it down into its entry-level sub-compact crossover. The result is an impressive offering from the German automaker. Could it use more power? Sure, couldn’t everything…
