Whereas some luxury editions fail to bring anything extra to the table, the Onyx Edition of the Outback is different. Starting with the engine and rounding out with features from switchable weather driving modes to a SmartDevice link, this model lives up to the hype.
The Mazda3 Hatchback AWD stood the test of winding mountain roads, Colorado highways and Denver streets. Outperforming in power, shifting, handling, vision and more, this car is perfect for Colorado, all year long.
With a great price point and some nice driving and safety features, this station wagon may seem like a steal, but this Volvo still fell short (quite literally) for our car reviewer.
Though large, the Pacifica proved to be nimble, not anywhere near as mushy-handling as many minivans and, coupled with the excellent power sources, a top-notch driving vehicle, a mountain road super star.
When you’re going for a long, scenic drive you want the best driving vehicle you can get your hands on, and this Acura offered the comfort, space and power to cruise the scenic roadways of Michigan.
These two cars are indeed very similar in size and feel. But the Lexus and the Toyota had similar driving and handling experiences despite major differences in the way the equipment was deployed.
Though Miata's haven't changed much over the years, this new 2019 model – the third year of the 4th generation – has been given a more aggressive design, one that gives it more of the look of an old Triumph TR6, a classic
The market segment for subcompact SUV/Crossovers is hot, and the new Kona is Hyundai's entrant. While it has some high-quality features, its weight and price leave something to be desired.
I have almost no reservations whatsoever stating that the Kia Sorento might just be the finest SUV on the market, and I felt exactly the same the last time I drove one in August 2014. But I do have one reservation this time around.
Boeing publishes 20-year outlooks on the pilot workforce based on aircraft orders and projections; the 2018 report says 90,000 to 120,000 new pilots will be needed in North America by 2038. The scarcity can’t be solved with mere want ads.
This is an odd car – odd because I loved it, but I simply don’t understand why Honda makes it. The original Insight, which has no relation to this one except being a hybrid, debuted in the year 2000 as a subcompact, 3-door weird looking oddball of a car that featured only two seats.
I’m not sure why the car companies keep sending out new models that haven’t changed – in this case the Subaru BRZ – for review.
These two vehicles belong in the same conversation because they are, on balance, amazingly similar: both are mid-sized SUVs, and both are stalwarts in the middle of their respective lines, and those lines, Acura and Lexus, are the luxury brands of two of Japan’s most venerable nameplates, Honda and Toyota, respectively.
All of my apprehensions melted away the very minute I got into the Tundra and drove it around the block
The Outlander itself – available in a gasoline engine format – just might be the ticket for someone looking for a mid-sized SUV, but this PHEV – Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle – is another matter.
Little things can become deal breakers as far as I am concerned.
Kia’s forte is, obviously, building cars, nowhere better displayed than in its Forte.
Different isn’t necessarily better, especially here on the Accord.
I am simply not going to pay $71,270 for a Dodge.
Being a hybrid and capable of operating as any gasoline vehicle, there is no worry here in the Niro.
I was looking forward to seeing the Honda Fit, for comparison purposes, and in doing some research I found a U.S. New & World Report ranking of the best subcompacts, and the magazine placed the Fit on the top of the list.
What I liked the most is how simple the Rio is.
So the new Subaru Ascent is not quirky, and its overall styling sameness in the SUV market will be, I predict, its strength.
A car review of the 2018 Subaru Outback – the triumphs and the characteristics worthy of complaint.
