The BMW 3 Series is the sports sedan that supported a whole brand and launched an entire market segment, with countless of other automakers chasing that perfect blend of luxury and fun that the 3 always managed to perfect.

Midsize truck sales are booming, and pre-accessorized trucks sell faster and with more margin than their regular counterparts. Chevrolet knows this, which is why you can now get its Colorado ZR2 off-road truck upgraded with parts from American Expedition Vehicles.

Today’s small crossover segment in which the GLC competes is a murderously competitive and crowded field, filled with offerings from all sides of the automotive spectrum.

Don’t look now, but superheroes have infiltrated our cars. But this Jeep Wrangler doesn’t have the gadgets to be considered Batman or Iron Man, and I’m not sure it could be considered Superman or Thor. Instead, it’s easier to see it as Spider-Man.

The three-row crossover segment is always a competitive one, and while some automakers, like Subaru and Volkswagen, are bringing out whole new models, other companies find themselves refining and perfecting these family-friendly vehicles.

The 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk is the automotive equivalent of stunt casting. Stuffing a 707 horsepower supercharged V8 under the hood of, well, anything is roughly analogous to tapping in The Rock to take over Robin William’s role in the inevitable remake of Mrs. Doubtfire, a move so outrageously over the top that it’s going to draw attention whether it succeeds or fails.

The GS F is Lexus’ sportiest sedan, a large four-door that offers unexpected performance and versatility.

If you’re wondering why Honda chose to use the Insight badge instead of the Civic Hybrid one for its latest compact hybrid, you aren’t alone.

Pickup trucks are supposed to have V8 engines. For the longest time, they did. But as other powertrains became more efficient, V8 engines have been moved to the wayside in many applications in favor of smaller, more fuel-efficient engines. That trend has moved to the 2019 Chevrolet Silverado.

The new Mercedes GLE is a revolutionary jump for the brand — not only does it feature all the things that make the brand great, but it even goes above and beyond that.

Best selling doesn’t always mean best in class.

Supercars are like David Copperfield or David Blaine. They’re the cars that people expect a certain flair from. See them, drive them, and come away impressed that something can be so… fantastic. They’re also masters of misdirection and stardom.

Automotive shoppers across the board are more demanding than ever, and even in the affordable subcompact crossover segment, brands are having to pull out all the stops in order to draw buyers in their direction.

Every year, the story is the same around this time of year: “prepare for winter, the snow is coming.” And we all hunker down and get our cars ready for the slippery weather. At first, the roads get covered with a fluffy pretty blanket of snow but then, it’s chaos: ice covers the roads, snow banks block paths, and plows completely forget certain roads. But dedicated drivers endure, and experience pays dividends.

It seems like every pickup out there has a huge hurdle to clear if they want to be deemed successful.

Despite sharing a love of costumes, sweets, and the end of October, Halloween and the Day of the Dead are remarkably different in their treatment of death.

People stared, mouths agape.

There’s really nothing new about the Subaru BRZ, it’s basically the same as when it debuted roughly six years ago. So why even bother reviewing the recently introduced tS model?

Winds of change are starting to blow. Lincoln’s new Navigator is the transformative product this struggling luxury automaker has needed for years.

Usually, a Formula 1 course is full of sporty, lightweight, agile speed machines, but this week, the Bahrain International Circuit is home to the heavy and large but light on its feet 2019 Porsche Panamera GTS.

There are no fewer than 16 variants of Porsche’s Panamera available in the U.S.

The MINI Cooper lineup got some refreshes for the 2019 model year and while the 2019 MINI Cooper S Convertible is as cute and playful as ever, it isn’t perfect. Here is a quick overview of the pros and cons of this fun little car.

Has anyone else noticed how intense the truck market is right now? Trucks and SUVs are selling at astonishing rates, as evidenced by the fact that streets and freeways are full of the monster-sized vehicles.

Electric vehicles aren’t for everyone.

The North American Car/Truck/Utility Vehicle of the Year (NACTOY) jury has completed testing all the semi-finalists for the 2019 awards.

Driving the brand-new Hyundai NEXO is an utterly conventional experience even if under the skin it’s anything but a normal crossover.

The future is already here, it’s often been said; we just don’t realize it yet. How’s this for the future: an inconspicuous little one-box hatchback that can parallel-park with the best of urban hoppers, cram all the antique furniture and Meow Mix as necessitated by a sane person, then launch into hyperspace within the span of an on-ramp? The ethos of the Chevrolet Bolt EV, the most underrated and least-assuming electric vehicle you can buy today.

“It’s all going to hell in a handbasket.”

That’s pretty much what was going through my head several months ago when Mercedes-AMG announced the E 53.

A small part of me is disappointed again. For the second time in as many visits to Seattle, Washington, there wasn’t even a hint of rain. Instead, we were greeted by blue skies and warm, sunny weather and perfect driving conditions. I can live with that.

According to certain pundits and prognosticators, the sedan is dead. Modern drivers only want pickup trucks and crossovers. Or do they?

Chevrolet introduced the Volt in 2010, an extended-range hybrid whose gasoline generator powered its electric drivetrain, allowing it to drive far beyond any electric-only range.

As the number of X models increases yearly (with the X2 just arriving and X7 coming soon),  BMW has to make sure that the big daddy of the lineup is up to the world-class standard that the brand represents.

Have you ever thought, “Gee, I wish there was a car that slotted between the Mercedes-AMG CLS 63 and the Mercedes-AMG GT.” Or perhaps, “I wonder how many ways they can re-skin an E-Class platform?”. Possibly you just wanted to know what the folks from Affalterbach would do if they made their own version of Porsche’s Panamera.

Since the first Audi Q3 arrived in North America just a few short years ago, the subcompact luxury crossover segment has exploded.

The 2019 Acura NSX debuted recently and while some were excited by the news, others were quick to point out that the brand’s supercar is not worth the effort.

The 2019 Chevrolet Silverado finds itself in a unique position on the cutthroat full-size pickup market. Whereas rivals such as the Ford F-150 and Ram 1500 (alongside lesser lights like the Nissan Titan and the Toyota Tundra) are free to court big spenders seeking a six-figure luxury truck by way of their upmarket trim levels, the Silverado sits in the corner like a loyal WWE soldier while a sweaty Vince McMahon screams ‘KNOW YOUR ROLE!’ right in its face.

There was once a time, just after the turn of the Millennium, when Cadillac’s performance credentials were buried so far in its past that the chance of its core group of customers listing ‘driving thrills’ as the reason why they bought their car was next to zero.

Forget the historic nameplate, ignore the weird Japanese-German fusion, and try not too hard to think about the specs. The Toyota Supra is finally arriving and it’s fast, focused, and fun.

To the general population, a van is something to be ridiculed, bringing to mind frumpy family haulers designed to serve a single purpose, but to many others, vans are so much more. Sprinter vans aren’t minivans — they can be nearly anything you can imagine.

Striving to expand and revitalize its lineup, Cadillac is poised to launch a new or redesigned model every six months through 2020. At the tip of this dagger is the fresh-faced XT4 compact crossover, which will be thrust into showrooms before the month is out.

Lexus takes claim to inventing the luxury crossover segment when the RX first came out a decade ago and now it’s hoping to build on that massive success with an all-new subcompact model, the UX.

Honda has updated its hot-selling Pilot crossover. Not only is there fresh styling to talk about, but this three-row vehicle also bristles with new technology, additional refinement, and even more standard features.

The subcompact crossover segment is an important one and Honda has a bestseller with the HR-V. The Nissan Rogue Sport (aka the Qashqai in Canada)is new this year and wants to steal some of Honda’s thunder, so we’ve compared them head to head to see which one is better. Here’s what we thought.

It might seem silly for a car company to introduce a new sedan when everyone wants a crossover, but Kia isn’t a company that follows convention. On the heels of its  Stinger sports sedan, the company has brought a new Forte to market. It’s a good car.

Many enthusiasts are quick to point out the similarities between the Lamborghini Huracan and the Audi R8. They’re not entirely wrong — the two cars share a few key components including the chassis, transmission, and the 10-cylinder engine, which is the same design and partially made in the same factory in Hungary.

I don’t like the M3 CS. It’s not because the M3 isn’t fast or capable or impressive. And it’s not because it is uncomfortable and loud and makes people hate you. I’m okay with all of that.

For a long time now, the Porsche 911 has been a very good sports car and a benchmark for many. It’s the go-to choice because it’s sporty, fast, refined and available through a wide range of price points and performance targets.

The hyper-accelerated growth of luxury trucks aimed at well-heeled utility-focused buyers and status seekers looking to live large has been properly exploited by almost every automaker with a finger in the pickup pie.

KANANASKIS, Alberta – The smoke casts an eerie pall through which the sun glows with the dim muster of a 60-watt bulb. The fallout from more than 500 out-of-control B.C. wildfires, the noxious haze has virtually obliterated the horizon – the Kananaskis mountains reduced to a faint outline above the apocalyptic landscape.

Completely overhauled for model year 2019, the Ram 1500 is better than ever, offering truck buyers more capability, strength and performance.

When I was a kid, I was obsessed with Porsche 911s. Like every other kid, my mom and dad were my heroes — they drove me home from the hospital in a 911 after I was born, starting my lifelong obsession with cars.

While enthusiasts claimed the Porsche Boxster and Cayman were the most entertaining models in the German automaker’s lineup, some purists snubbed the mid-engined car just because it wasn’t a 911.

Chevrolet has gotten good at making special editions for the Tahoe. Or, rather, they’re prolific. You can get a Midnight edition if you’re a goth, a Signature Edition if you like monograms, the all-season package (because winter in the other three-ton SUVs is a grim nightmare), and even a Z71 package for if you want to take your massive SUV off-road and onto a trail that it surely won’t fit down. They all offer something, but none gives you what you really want. What the Tahoe has actually been missing. The 6.2-liter V8.

The 2019 Infiniti QX50 is a significant product for Nissan’s luxury brand.

For 2019, Mazda is giving Miata-fanatics the most powerful version of its drop-top sportscar yet which also gets a number of other refinements that will make you fall in love all over again with the lightweight rear-wheel drive convertible.

Brand new for 2019, the totally redesigned Chevrolet Silverado is all about more, except when it isn’t.

It seems today anything can be considered “sporty” even big SUVs. It’s led to the development of the two vehicles we have here, the Dodge Durango SRT and the Chevy Tahoe RST. Two giant, heavy, three-row crossovers that are somehow inspired by performance.
