2023 BMW Z4 sDrive30i Convertible

Power top, leather interior and plenty of twin-turbo power ... Time flies especially fast in a Z4, BMW’s mid-level luxury roadster. But it had really flown as it had been 14 years since I last shoe-horned into a Z4. This sDrive30i version came just as autumn was creeping into Wisconsin, the leaves starting to turn...

AWD Impreza hatchback upgrades power, interior, fun factor ... Whoa Nelly! Subaru has gone and upped its entry-level game with its new 2024 Impreza RS hatchback.

2023 Ford F-150 Lightning (EV)

Lightning leads the way toward luxury electric pickups ... One of the biggest problems any manufacturer has when their product is No. 1 in the market is coasting, resting on their laurels.

2023 Ford Mustang Mach-E Premium AWD

Fast as a real Mustang, but Mach-E is an electric pony SUV ... Ford either made a big mistake naming its electric compact SUV the Mustang Mach-E, or that was a brilliant marketing move. Why?

2023 Jeep Compass Latitude Review

Compass adds refinement, but also power ... A lot can change, and should, when seven years pass between test drives.

Luxury Convertible's gutsy V8, drop-top are smooth operators ...

2023 Genesis Electrified GV70 AWD Prestige

Electrified luxury SUV makes great even greater ... Hold on for just a minute, I thought I’d driven the finest luxury compact SUV about 18 months ago when I gushed over the twin-turbo 375-horse V6 Genesis GV70.

Review: 2023 Toyota Prius Prime XSE

Sleek new Prius Prime provides a plug-in with style ... Consider this, driving more than 200 miles in a week and only paying ten bucks, and change, for the privilege.
