Latest Updates Around The World
2/26/26 UPDATE: This review has been updated with instrumented test results. While some three-row SUVs have made leaps and bounds in recent years with new platforms, hybrid powertrains and flashy designs, Honda has settled for keeping the Pilot in its tracks as a solid, reliable and downright boring choice in this segment. This strategy is […]
Everyone has taken a nap that lasted a little longer than the intended duration. In the case of the Jeep Cherokee, this compact SUV ended up hitting the snooze button a few times and skipping the 2024 and ’25 model years. Now one of the industry’s oldest nameplates (dating back to 1974) returns with an […]
As a longstanding member of the tribe known as Save the manuals!—Some would say he’s been around long enough to be his elder statesman. I’m always happy when I hear that there is a car with a gearbox that requires you to keep your own gears moving. There’s something about coordinating the actions of your […]
Occasionally the test cars’ schedules match, creating an unintended comparison test. In the case of the Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet, the juxtaposition was the Lexus LC500 convertible.

When the SF90 debuted in 2021, it was a huge step forward: Ferrari’s […]
V-8-like rumble? Bill. Massive, mass-defying acceleration? Bill. Business as usual for the Porsche Cayenne Turbo. Well, not quite: I’ve never driven a Cayenne that can sprint to 60 mph in less than three seconds, that’s for sure. The new, fully electric Porsche Cayenne Turbo can do exactly that, according to Porsche. That performance isn’t entirely […]
01-30-26 UPDATE: This review has been updated with instrumented test results. If you’re ever challenged to name three new turbo-manual Toyotas, say, by the wizard guarding the bridge on your daily commute, the first two are easy. There’s the GR Corolla, the GR Supra and, um. . . do they still make the Celica All-Trac? […]
Nowadays, any car manufacturer that brings back a sporty two-door to its range is to be celebrated. This is even more true when we talk about Honda and when the nameplate returns: the legendary Prelude. But since Honda first announced the return of the Prelude a few years ago, there has been fear.
