2023 Nissan Z Performance

Z (it's only Z now) nails modern, yet retro, looks and power ... Not many car lines go all the way to Z. But Nissan has been going all the way since 1969 when it launched the Datsun 240Z its long-hooded sports car for the rest of us. I thought of it as a mini-Corvette... Continue Reading →

2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Summit Reserve 4×4

Going bigger with three rows to carry more crew, plus cargo ... Jeep’s Grand Cherokee has been a stout and stylish off-road capable SUV with a strong niche in the marketplace, so it’s natural for Jeep to try and build on that with a longer version, the L. Timing might not be in its favor... Continue Reading →

2022 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy AWD

8 people can ride in style in this upscale Calligraphy model ... Think stylish vehicles and you’d be wise these days to first turn your attention to Hyundai or Kia. The two South Korean carmakers have been breaking the staid auto world’s styling molds for several years now. Case in point, the tested Hyundai Palisade... Continue Reading →

2022 Genesis GV70 3.5T Sport Prestige

A new ute that Bond, James Bond, could love ... If James Bond were to drive a crossover/SUV (and I pray he doesn’t … ever) I’m convinced it would be a Genesis GV70, just for its looks. This compact luxury SUV’s looks ooze confidence, sexiness and swagger, very Bondish. They seem to say to all... Continue Reading →

2021 Lexus IS 350 F Sport AWD

Sport luxury sedan goodness; if it ain't broke, don't fix it ... Sorry if this sounds like a broken record (remember those?), but Lexus refuses to mess with success when it comes to its IS 350 sports sedan. For instance, Lexus sticks with its trusted 3.5-liter V6, keeps the IS 350’s overall dimensions within an... Continue Reading →

2022 Genesis G70 3.3T Sport Advanced

Can a luxury sport sedan be a value leader? Yes, if it's a Genesis G70 ... In the olden days, 1980s and 1990s, there were a few grunty sport sedans that wouldn’t send a buyer to Uncle Guido for a small loan. That was then, this is now, and a loan is a near certainty.... Continue Reading →

2022 Acura MDX SH-AWD Advance

Acura doctors up its MDX , prescribing excellence ...  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 →

VW Atlas Cross Sport SEL R-Line Premium

Shorter Cross Sport aims at slightly different buyer ... Rarely are two vehicles as similar as the Volkswagen Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport. Rarer yet is my getting to test such a duo within weeks of each other. A little more than a month ago I enjoyed the Atlas, which is about 5 inches longer... Continue Reading →

2021 Volkswagen Atlas SEL

New VW Atlas is a 3-row Easy Rider ... Some vehicles stand out by not standing out. They are what I call Easy Riders, or maybe more appropriately Easy Drivers. Such is Volkswagen’s restyled Atlas, the German firm’s mid-size crossover and one of its best-selling models in the U.S. market. VW restyled its nose and... Continue Reading →

2020 Toyota Highlander Platinum AWD

Highlander gets bigger and better ... I’m not a bigger is better sort of guy. My parents used to tell me the best things come in small packages. So I’m not one to automatically rave about Toyota’s new Highlander because it has grown dimensionally, about 2.5 inches of wheelbase and overall length. But if you’re... Continue Reading →
