What separates sedans from crossovers, and how important are those differences? Those are two very important questions as the Toyota Crown is returning to America as an “elevated sedan.” A radical departure from the rear-wheel drive variants offered in Japan, the 2023 Crown is a segment bender that follows in the footsteps of the iconic […]

With soaring inflation, record high transaction prices, and a summer of $5 per gallon gasoline, affordable and fuel efficient sedans have never looked better. Unfortunately, it’s slim pickings as the carpocalypse continues to claim victims with some of the latest being the Chevrolet Spark, Hyundai Accent, Honda Insight, and Nissan Maxima. However, Toyota is committed

The Tonale might just be the car that finally helps Alfa Romeo hit the big time. Seriously. Yeah, we know people said the same about the Giulia and Stelvio, and yet despite being well received, neither has sold in huge numbers. But the Tonale could change that. Does it deserve to? We jumped behind the

The Kia Niro has grown in popularity since its release back in 2016. Even now, as its first generation is about to be supplanted by an all-new Niro, it’s had a 27 percent increase in sales. That’s no easy feat but the Niro has made a name for itself as a flexible, practical, and value-oriented

In late 2021 Porsche announced it had finally done the physical engine swap we’d all been wrenching on mentally for what seemed like forever.

The new Porsche 911 GT3 RS is unlike any other before it, pushing its track-focused nature to new extremes in the relentless pursuit of performance.

Luxury brands have embraced electric vehicles, but they’ve typically been far from affordable. Audi is working to change that with the 2023 Q4 e-tron, which is being billed as “approachable premium.” That’s more than just marketing hyperbole as the crossover starts at $48,800 and this makes it a steal, when you consider the entry-level Ford

It’s difficult to overstate how important the new 2023 Alfa Romeo Tonale is to the Italian brand. Stellantis’s answer to BMW has failed to set the sales charts alight in recent years despite having some decent cars in the shape of the four-door Giulia and Stelvio SUV so there’s a lot of pressure on the Tonale’s

The new Mercedes-AMG SL 63 is not to be underestimated, as this recent review from AutoTopNL reveals. Powering the flagship Mercedes roadster is a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 that is good for 577 hp and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. Mercedes claims the car can hit 62 mph (100 km/h) in just 3.6 seconds and

Singer’s Dynamics & Lightweighting Study is one of the more exciting restomods cooked up in recent years and after many years of development, Chris Harris has had the opportunity to see what it is all about. The veteran journalist notes that this is not an objective review of the car as he was involved in
