Here we are again in the wildly popular smaller SUV category, the vehicle that kickstarted the demise of the sedan. But this one is made by Mazda, a company that has shown serious respect for vehicle handling and performance. This category offers plenty of choices, but people who love to drive should look at the Mazda CX-5. It continues to be an important product for Mazda, and Read more
Kona, Hawaii, is known for its coffee. It has great flavor, made in a beautiful place. The Hyundai Kona refresh wasn’t on my radar until I tested one. But just like I’d love a trip to Kona, Hawaii, I also fell in love with the Hyundai.Many vehicles have started life with internal combustion engines, then retrofitted by the manufacturer with an electric powertrain. The Ford Read more
Once upon a time, Toyota sold the spacious Avalon sedan. Then sedans fell out of favor. You can still get a Camry or Corolla, but the Avalon fit the niche of a reliable sedan that appealed especially to the older demographic. It was discontinued (since it’s hard to sell an old man’s car to a young man) with its role now filled by the Toyota Crown. In Japan, the Crown nameplate Read more
The big three truck manufacturers all offer luxury versions of their full-size pickups: the Chevy Silverado LTZ, the Ford F150 Platinum and Ram 1500 Limited Elite. And Toyota wanted to join the club with its Tundra Capstone. The 1794 edition of the Tundra, named after the ranch where the Toyota factory now resides, used to be the pinnacle until the Capstone came into play. It Read more

The Mercedes EQE is doing its own thing as a performance-oriented electric SUV, which is a vehicle category we didn’t think we needed. But as the popularity of Read more
Jeep doesn’t always have to represent the Wrangler. Back in the day, we had the Grand Wagoneer, with optional wood paneling. Jeep has reincarnated the Grand Wagoneer name with its most luxurious offering to date: the Grand Wagoneer L Obsidian. This is the biggest and baddest Jeep you can get, meant to go up against the large-and-in-charge Cadillac Escalade and Lincoln Read more
It is said that simplicity is the ultimate sophistication, and sometimes this point cannot be argued. We really loved the Honda CR-V Hybrid for being a quality SUV offering just the right amount of size, space and fuel economy. Everything has been engineered with Honda purpose for ease of use and reliability. Boasting 37 mpg overall without the need to plug it in, it should be Read more
What is this slick looking car? Did a Civic have an affair with a Lamborghini? What is this? A Toyota Prius! I was legitimately shocked the first time I put my eyes on the new Toyota Prius. The company has always been known for reliable and well-engineered transportation, but not necessarily cutting-edge design. However, not only is the new Prius well-engineered with its Read more
The Genesis GV70 is a very good luxury SUV at a reasonable price point. With its 2.5-liter turbocharged engine, it’s been well received by both the press and public.
