Smooth plug-in hybrid adds power, better fuel economy to SUV Luxury and power are as ubiquitous as peanut butter and chocolate.

Mid-size pickups are now bigger than full-size used to be .... When is big only mid-size? Well, today, when in the truck world mid-size means big, just not huge, like a “full-size” pickup.

2-door Rover a retro rock star in looks, off-roading ... OK, I say Land Rover and what do you picture?

Fourth gen Santa Fe grows into a sharp looker ... Time flies. Hyundai’s Santa Fe SUV proves it. Santa Fe debuted 20 years ago as the South Korean automaker’s mid-size SUV.

Rare that an automaker skips making one of its best-sellers for a year, but Acura did that - sort of - with its popular MDX luxury sport-ute to ensure its 2022 MDX was a winner. It is. To be accurate, Acura didn’t skip a whole... Continue Reading →
Mercedes' racy GLE Coupe is really an SUV ... This new Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe is a whale of a vehicle and I mean that in mostly the nicest way, beyond its obvious looks.
