Even with a growth spurt for its second generation, the BMW X2 retains its high-riding hot hatch feel—especially in the hard-riding M35i model. The entry-level xDrive28i sacrifices some outright speed, but tempts buyers with a more well-rounded ride, not to mention a useful (comparative) discount.

The Volkswagen Jetta is celebrating a big anniversary this year. The sporty version of the Jetta. Called the GLI, has been on our shores for 40 years. That’s a long time for any model to last, especially one that’s a bit niche like the GLI.

Mini has kind of a thing for splitting hairs. Its Countryman straddles the line between hatchback and CUV.

Bob Broderdorf, Ram’s Global Operations Officer, made it clear the company is looking to increase its market share in the pick-up segment and that the sport truck line-up is going to play a big part in reaching that goal.

It’s no secret the Urus shares its V8 powertrain with a handful of other Volkswagen Group products like the Audi RSQ8.

It's finally here: the all-electric Geländewagen ushers in a new era for Mercedes' off-road icon.

Say goodbye to the longest-running Subaru nameplate in North America.

Porsche didn’t cut any corners when it came time to design its first EV. The Taycan was fresh, innovative and above all a Porsche. It introduced an 800-volt architecture, super-fast charging speeds, and breathtaking performance. The lessons learned after selling over 150,000 of them in just a few years have in no small part played a major influence on the brand's second EV—the new Macan.

The Tacoma finally brings Toyota's hybrid expertise to the mid-sized truck market. Far from a single-minded fuel-sipper, this electrified Taco comes correct with a muscular powertrain and a whole new Trailhunter trim catering to the overlanding crowd.

201 horsepower. That’s the figure Mercedes says will be added to the AMG GT’s already substantial power output, coming courtesy of an electric motor placed on the rear axle of the recently updated coupe.

The Volkswagen GLI is celebrating its 40th anniversary. More importantly though, it is tasked with carrying the enthusiast torch as the final VW to have a manual transmission. With the Golf GTI and the Golf R both losing their six-speeds after 2024, the GLI will be the lone soldier.

GMC’s press materials make no mention of exactly when the next Terrain SUV will arrive. “GMC plans to reveal the next-generation Terrain later this year,” they read. It appears someone at GMC forgot to scrub useful information from the photo file names, which reads “my26terrain-homePage-1920x1440-v2” and suggests the Terrain will arrive in 2025 as a 2026 model year car.

More of a heavy facelift than a fully new model, the 2025 Toyota Camry nonetheless improves the brand's best-seller by updating the cabin and improving refinement across the board. Now exclusively hybrid-powered, the mid-sized four-door has a dash of Prius style inside and out.

The Lucid Air Grand Touring is receiving a slew of crucial updates for 2024. The Air Grand Touring, which sits just below Lucid’s range-topping Sapphire trim, picks some parts from the brand’s most powerful sedan in addition to some serious range figures.

The Toyota Crown came out last year, replacing the Avalon atop Toyota’s sedan hierarchy. With a choice of hybrid powertrains, the Crown offers a good combination of power, ride comfort, and efficiency.

Ford kicked off the Mustang's 60th anniversary on Wednesday. It was on this day, April 17, that the original model first debuted at the World's Fair in 1964. The Blue Oval will be hosting a birthday event at Charlotte Motor Speedway later today, but ahead of that it revealed a special edition Mustang named, appropriately enough, the 60th Anniversary Package.

Subaru of America, Inc. has set the pricing for its 2025 models of the Legacy and Outback, keeping them unchanged from the previous year at $24,895 for the Legacy and $28,895 for the Outback. These models are scheduled for release at dealerships in the upcoming spring.

The Genesis brand’s meteoric rise is something we haven’t seen in decades, if ever. The brand went from a few niche models within the Hyundai portfolio, to a full-fledged, multi-vehicle luxury brand in the span of 10 or so years. More importantly, it’s also a wholly competitive player in the luxury market, with vehicles like the G70, GV70, and GV60 receiving international acclaim.

The new Land Cruiser is smaller, more efficient, and more affordable than the basically-a-Lexus model we said goodbye to in 2020. That's all good, but with this downsizing, Toyota's icon now sits much closer to the 4Runner than ever before, which will also see a whole new generation later this year.

A report by Autocar indicates that Aston Martin will continue to sell combustion cars after pushing back the launch of its first EV to 2027.

During the 13th episode of The AutoGuide Show brought to you by eBay Motors, we sat down with Bill Stokes, Carline Planning Manager, Subaru of America. Our discussion focused on a few topics, including the new 2025 Subaru Forester, as well as the WRX TR and the BRZ tS.

The EQS, perhaps rightfully so, caught a lot of flak for its overly round Chicago-Cloud-Gate shape and odd face. One of those things changes as of 2024, with Mercedes updating the EQS’ looks, specs, and features. The most noticeable change is certainly the new face, which features a more traditional Mercedes emblem on the hood and “fins” across the grille that previously held a load of smaller Mercedes stars. The look is a little more traditional, but from a distance, it gives the EQS a more pronounced face, and we think it helps to assuage some of the criticisms levied at the car’s design when it debuted.

The Fiat 500 left our shores a few years and it appeared Fiat might be leaving our market for good. But the brand has returned to North America as an electric vehicle manufacturer and is showing off the brand’s first offering, the 500e.

This is it. One last Huracan. Lamborghini calls it the STJ, and as we reported earlier, the Huracan Super Trofeo Jota will be the last dance for the V10 supercar. The STJ is based heavily on the Huracan’s STO configuration. The two produce the same power from the 5.2-liter V10 (631 horsepower and 417 pound-feet) and use the same 7-speed dual-clutch automatic driving power to the back wheels.

The Porsche Taycan sparked a war with Tesla when it set a Nurburgring record with its Turbo S. Tesla went on a mission to prove the Model S could beat the Porsche and they did with the Plaid, a 1,020 hp triple-motor EV that lapped the Nurburgring in just 7 minutes and 25 seconds. Not one to sit idly by, Porsche fired back with an all new Taycan model, the Turbo GT, and recently crushed the Plaid’s record by a whopping 18 seconds.

There sure is a lot of commonality between the two Toyota SUVs.

Honda has addressed the price problem; but only slightly.

The Acura ADX will debut early next year, according to the Japanese automaker. Acura positions the ADX as a parallel to the entry-level Integra- a “gateway to the Acura Performance brand.” What we know for sure about the new model is, frankly, very little. The model will be a crossover, likely based on the Integra’s front-drive layout. However, it is also possible the SUV will ride on the same underpinnings as the automaker’s current smallest SUV- the RDX.

It’s big, brawny, and brand new; welcome to our first-look at the the all new third generation 2025 Buick Enclave.

Stellantis, Jeep’s parent company, has published its first-quarter sales figures, and the results, for Jeep at least, are nothing short of shocking. There’s some pun intended there, as 50% of Jeep Wrangler sales were comprised solely of 4xe models- that’s the Wrangler’s plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) trim. By the end of Q1 2024, Jeep had sold 31,750 PHEVS, which on its own is up 47% from last year. Stellantis’ total PHEV sales jumped by 82% as a result. Of those 31,000-ish cars, a staggering 19,090 were Wrangler 4xe models- nearly two-thrids of all PHEVs sold by Jeep and half of all Wranglers for this quarter. Mind you, this isn’t a new trend, but rather a continuation of hte massive sales success of Jeep’s 4xe. Last year, 4xe sales were up 56%, and accounted for 43% of total Wranlger sales, per Stellantis and insideEVs.

Not everyone is familiar with the Toyota Crown. Hitting our roads last year, Toyota’s latest sedan is very unique and hard to classify. Upon viewing it, many are left wondering if the vehicle is a car or a SUV. Rest assured, the Crown is a car, just in a very unusual package.

The Trailhunter family is expanding.

That's a top-shelf clapper there, buddy.

This comparison is a contest of philosophies.

The Toyota Crown is strange. It’s a lifted, hybrid, luxury-ish sedan offered here in the US, named after a famed luxury sedan that, for years, has been used to shuttle around members of Japanese high society. The Crown everyone thinks of when they hear that name (should they even recognize it) is Japan’s S-Class, and here in North America, it’s a $40k sedan wearing lifts that would make Ron Desantis blush.

Subaru of America, Inc. has introduced the 2025 Subaru Forester, with availability expected in late spring 2024. This iteration marks the sixth generation of the Forester and features updates such as a refreshed exterior design, improvements in interior noise reduction, and advancements in ride and handling. The vehicle is priced starting at $29,695.

We love us a no-nonsense mode of transportation.

It's all about agility—with a little bit of predictability for good measure.

Long-roof fans, rejoice!

In celebration of 4x4 Day this year, Jeep is returning one of its best colors to the lineup. Tuscadero, the automaker’s solar-flare-bright magenta, will be available to order on 2024 Wranglers. The color first debuted in 2021, and according to Jeep, around 30,000 customers placed an order for the loud color that same year. The addition of the color back into the lineup brings the total number of available colors up to nine: Anvil, Earl, Firecracker Red, Granite Crystal, Silver Zynith, Hydro Blue, Bright White, and black.

...and every existing owner breathes a collective sigh of relief.

First impressions matter—and the Civic Si didn’t make a good one.

When Porsche set out to produce its first electric car it had to make sure that it went about it in a way that captured the essence of the brand.

Recently, we spent a week with a 2024 Alfa Romeo Giulia Veloce Q2. Although there were plenty of issues with the car during our time with it, a few other unexpected surprises emerged. Below we summarize the top three things we were not anticipating during our test drive.

After too many years of being neglected, GM has decided to throw some money and attention at their premium brand, Buick and according to the General, it’s working.

Fifty percent makes a lot more sense now.

The R1T and R1S lineup will now encompass three total trims: Entry, Adventure, and Premium, likely in that order. Currently, Rivian offers the R1T and S Adventure with dual-motor AWD, a Performance dual-motor AWD setup, and a quad-motor AWD setup. There’s no telling exactly how the new trim levels will change these offerings, but we should find out soon- Rivian’s NHTSA paperwork shows these changes could take effect for 2025 model year trucks and SUVs.

Toyota has begun to lift the cover off the latest 4Runner, sharing the first teaser image of the new off-roader. Toyota is known for keeping its models around for some time, and the current 4Runner debuted 14 years ago, back in 2010. Conceivably, someone reading this story right now could have lived their entire lives without seeing a new 4Runner generation. While keeping a model around for a while isn’t so terrible from an environmental and economic standpoint, it’s certainly safe to say people are excited for the new one.

Autoguide has discovered a new Nissan trademark, filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), for “Tetra.” It’s reasonably safe to assume the name could be used for a new vehicle. After all, Nissan recently announced it would launch seven new models, in addition to refreshing the majority of its US lineup, by 2026. Globally, that total rises to 30 new models.

The all-new 2025 Kia K4, fresh with a new design, upgraded interior, and loads of new tech, made its global debut at the New York International Auto Show.

During the latest episode of The AutoGuide Show brought to you by eBay motors, we talked with special guest Craig Keeys, group Vice President, Infiniti Americas. Our main discussion was on the recently introduced all-new 2025 Infiniti QX80.

For 2025, Hyundai brings the Tuscon into the modern age with a load of design and tech updates including numerous hybrid, ICE, and plug-in hybrid powertrains. In addition to the new looks, which include a redesign, Hyundai has dramatically updated the interior.

The 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz is getting exactly what it needed.

Recently on an episode of The AutoGuide Show brought to you by eBay Motors, we chatted with special guest Craig Keeys, group Vice President, Infiniti Americas. Our discussion focused primarily on the all-new 2025 Infiniti QX80, which has undergone a major redesign.

In case you’ve missed it, the Land Rover brand recently split into three, distinct sub-brands. Land Rover of course is one of the three brands, as is Range Rover. The third sub-brand is Defender, making the iconic nameplate a model-line all to its own.

It's clear Genesis is aiming even further upmarket for its upcoming range-topper. Look out, Mercedes.

Genesis is targeting BMW M and Mercedes-AMG with its new (liquid hot) performance division.

There’s a new G Wagen. After the last model ended production some time ago, the latest Mercedes-Benz G550 and G63 are here. Noticeably, the G63 still packs a big V8 under the hood- but the electric Gelandewagen won’t be here until “a later date.” So, for now, it’s worth knowing the gas-powered G-Class is still the off-roader it has always been, with a ladder-frame body, three mechanical locking differentials, a low-range gear set, and a solid rear axle.

The 2024 Toyota RAV4 Prime SE is the ultimate NPC car.
