Nissan's New Boss Candidly Admits What Went Wrong

The first order of business for Nissan’s new CEO is to put the struggling company into recovery mode.

The Renault 4 Gets Even Cooler With Rugged AWD Concept

Following a 30-year hiatus, the Renault 4 was reinvented in late 2024, evolving from a gasoline econobox into a small electric vehicle.

GMC Gave the Hummer EV Exactly What It Needed: More Power

It's hard to believe the GMC Hummer EV is already a few years old. GMC isn't quite ready to give the truck and SUV trims a proper mid-cycle refresh, but these rigs roll into 2026 with some notable changes. You won't see them per se, unless you identify Coastal Dune…

The European Union might have relaxed its rules regarding the sale of new gasoline/diesel cars, but it’ll still be hard for automakers to keep combustion alive.

The Nissan Rogue's Base Infotainment Proves Simpler Is Better: Review

I’m fascinated by the Nissan Rogue. At face value, it’s merely an average vehicle. It’s not powerful, it's not elegant, it’s not especially attractive, and it doesn’t really have any cool features. Not to mention it’s getting old. The current Rogue debuted in 2020 with a 7.0-inch touchscreen, which grew…

Nissan's Mid-Engined Hot Hatch Is Back. And It's Even Cooler Now

A new electric Nissan Micra is coming in 2026, which should have fans of the famed hatchback at least excited to see the nameplate return. But before it does, Nissan wants to celebrate the third-generation Micra’s 23rd birthday with a special reinvention of its one-off Micra 350SR.

The Toyota bZ Woodland Is Bigger, Tougher, And More Powerful

While we wait for the new RAV4, Toyota is revisiting the bZ it introduced days ago by expanding the lineup. The electric crossover formerly known by its confusing bZ4X name is getting the Woodland treatment. It’s not the first model to receive a mildly rugged variant, as the Sienna minivan…

Stellantis Delays the Electric Ram 1500 and Ramcharger Again

It’s been over two years since Ram revealed the 1500 REV. It was supposed to hit dealerships in the United States by late 2024, but Stellantis pushed back the electric truck’s launch to 2025. The Ramcharger with its range-extending V-6 broke cover about a year and a half ago and…

Mitsubishi Angers Purists With an Electric Eclipse SUV

The Eclipse we grew up with died in 2012 when Mitsubishi pulled the plug on its affordable sports car. However, the name made an unexpected return five years later, repurposed for an entirely different vehicle. Fast-forward to 2025, and the Eclipse Cross is still in its first generation, but a…

Nissan Would Sell a New Xterra Tomorrow If It Could

Nissan is in a bit of a pickle. The company is cutting 20,000 jobs, shuttering seven factories, and pausing development of several models.

The Volvo XC90 Is Starting To Show Its Age: Review

The XC90 was a world-beater when it debuted in 2015, with a stylish design, a modern interior, and an impressive selection of powertrains. But 10 years on, and mostly unchanged—save a few mild updates—some of that sheen has faded. The XC90 still looks great, and its new mild-hybrid inline-four is…

Alfa Romeo Won't Make a Sports Car Unless You Keep Buying SUVs

The New Gas Jeep Compass Is Strictly Front-Wheel Drive

For decades, the idea of a front-wheel-drive Jeep seemed unthinkable. That changed in 2006 when the Patriot debuted, sending power only to the front axle in its more affordable versions.
