There is a Replacement for Displacement

When you think about the development of the automotive industry and the technology our vehicles have today, the fact that you can have more of what you want with a smaller engine than in the past seems ludicrous. For decades the saying was “there’s no replacement for displacement” but that has, in fact, become a fallacy when it comes to what we see on the roads today. You may still want a fire-breathing V8 engine if your goal is to spend your weekends at the track trying to turn fast laps to show off to your friends. (more…)

Another New Look at the Upcoming Jeep Wrangler

The cult of fun is what it seems the drive of a Jeep Wrangler has garnered over the years. For those of us that love to head off the paved roads, onto the trails and into the wilderness where you can have a lot of fun the Jeep Wrangler has been the vehicle of choice in many instances. The interest in this new model has come in a variety of forms with the thought that the new JL model might have a different look from what this legendary vehicle has had in the past and offer us even more off-road style and capability.

Expected Protection

When you shut the door of your vehicle and head out for a drive you expect your door to remain shut while you’re on the road until you park and are ready to get out of the vehicle at the destination you choose. What you don’t expect is for your car doors to open while you’re driving down the road and you certainly don’t think your doors are going to trap you in the car and keep you from getting out and be able to enjoy where you’ve driven to. Both of these situations can be extremely frightening and leave you feeling helpless. (more…)

A Convertible that Outsells the Coupe

The thought of a two-door, three if you count the hatch, SUV is one that seems a bit strange for most of us to fathom, but Land Rover has been offering us the Range Rover Evoque Coupe with this layout for a few years. This setup seems a bit different, but it was the basis of being able to offer this SUV as a convertible as well, which also seems like an odd choice when you’re looking for an SUV to drive. Typically, we like to think of an SUV as a rugged and capable model that can do much more on and off the road. (more…)

There’s really no arguing the classic look and the quality that you expect, demand, and receive when you see the Mercedes-Benz S-Class.

There are a variety of variations you can choose from with this car including the classic sedan, the two-door coupe or cabriolet, and the AMG models that add more power and sport for the drive you’re ready to experience on the road.

Lexus Is The First Place of Autonomy for Toyota

It shouldn’t come as any surprise to you that Toyota will choose to put autonomous technology in the Lexus brand before it trickles down to the vehicles that wear the Toyota badge like the Camry or Corolla. This follows along the same lines of other brands we’ve seen, but, for the most part, only from brands that don’t have a mainstream arm to go along with the luxury models offered. Adding autonomy at higher levels makes more sense because the higher price and expectation of the Lexus brand makes it the right place to start and build on what we’ll see in the future. (more…)

2018 Mazda CX-9: A Large SUV that Handles the Road

One of the challenges of driving a larger vehicle is the ability to handle corners and carve up the area the way you would want to in a sedan. While I’m not suggesting you take the new 2018 Mazda CX-9 out to challenge it until it rolls on the curves you drive, this is an SUV that offers you the light but rigid body you want and the G-Vectoring technology that can make it possible for you to hold a corner with ease. This is an SUV that brings you the drive you’re looking for and the fuel mileage you’ll want when this is the three-row family vehicle you choose. (more…)
