A few key design tweaks make this midsize sedan better looking than ever. The G80 is meant for calm commuting, not canyon carving. The G80 offers a great value in the luxury space with a starting price of under $60,000. The Genesis G80 holds a storied place in the company’s history. This midsize sedan debuted as the fanciest Hyundai model before the manufacturer decided to spin off Genesis into its own luxury brand in 2017. We got a new G80 in 2021, and the 2025 Genesis G80 represents a restrained mid-cycle refresh, adding a few appreciated upgrades while maintaining the…
The 2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV is a rolling technology showcase for GM It defies physics with its acceleration and weight The GMC Hummer EV SUV costs $98,845 and has up to 314 miles of range General Motors apparently decided the company needed to prove EVs were cool by creating a flagship that goes beyond what any consumer needs. The world got the GMC Hummer EV as both a pickup truck and an SUV. A showcase for the brand’s Ultium electric vehicle battery and architecture tool set, the GMC Hummer EV provides excess for buyers in every conceivable way. It…
I’m loath to pile on the 2024 Mercedes-AMG C63, because it seems Mercedes already can’t sell the things. But here we are. This latest UberMerc isn’t a bad car by any objective measure, but if we search our feelings as Vader once instructed, we know it to be true: The new C63 is not a great car either. That’s a shame because every C63 that came before was great. Never a match for the BMW M3’s lap times or the Audi RS4’s visual presence, the C63 traded on attitude. AMG picked a shade of growling Stathamesque charisma and poured it…
SUVs are the most popular type of vehicle in America—and for good reason. So many modern options are stylish, capable, comfortable, and loaded with technology. The next few years will bring even more exciting options to market, with of number of new SUVs making their debut as early as next year. Brands like BMW, Ford, and Hyundai have big plans for their SUV lineups in 2025. The incoming options range from luxury three-rows and compact EVs to performance SUVs and off-roaders. The SUVs making it to market next year certainly won’t be short on variety. Future Cars | Future EVs…
The manual is a dying breed. In 2023, only 1.7 percent of total car sales in the US were manuals. That is a slight increase from previous years, but still not enough to make a huge dent. However, that’s not to say there aren’t still options out there for enthusiasts looking to row their own. We’ve compiled a list of every manual car that you can still buy in 2024. The options range from sub-$20,000 sedans to multi-million-dollars hypercars, with a few trucks and off-roaders in the mix. By our count, there are more than 30 new cars you can…
When you think of pricey supercars, a few companies come to mind: Bugatti, Ferrari, Koenigsegg, and Pagani, among others. These manufacturers have cemented themselves as the top dogs in the premium space, extending to their wealthiest clientele the fastest, rarest, prettiest—and in this case—most expensive cars on the planet. But to find out which of these unattainable-to-most vehicles is the priciest, we’ve scoured the invoice sheets and uncovered 50 cars all worth $1.8 million or more. The group includes hybrid Ferrari convertibles, an American speed king, a few electric Hypercars, and a trio of one-of-a-kind Rolls-Royce cars built exclusively for…
We’re more than halfway through the year, which means 2025-model-year vehicles are already making their way onto dealer lots. Unfortunately, that also means a handful of cars won’t make it to see the new year, with at least 20 already on the chopping block. For some, it’s been a long time coming. The dated Nissan lineup could use a major refresh, with the GT-R and Titan being discontinued after this year. Meanwhile, Maserati is ditching the Ghibli for something new. But we’ll be sad to see a few others go, like the Bugatti Chiron, the iconic Camaro, and the Ram TRX.…
Editor’s Note: Our colleagues at Motor1 Italy drove the new BMW X3 in Munich. Their review has been translated and adapted for publication on Motor1. Certain details like trims, powertrains, and pricing may be specific to the European model. Three generations and 20 years of success—that, in a nutshell, is the BMW X3. The mid-sized luxury SUV has been nothing short of formulaic perfection for the German manufacturer since its debut. In 2023, it was still the brand’s best-selling vehicle globally, even though the third-generation model had already been on the market for seven years. Now, however, it’s time to…
I am an unabashed fan of Mercedes-Benz coupes—a luxurious two-door GT just fits the classic Mercedes ethos so well. Yet I was more than a little skeptical of the new CLE coupe. The company has lost its way in recent years with the misfire of the EQ range, a string of disappointments from AMG, and an emphasis on tech over real substance. In a lot of ways that matter, the CLE450, thankfully, still feels like a Mercedes. You’re probably wondering what a “CLE” is among MB’s bewilderingly vast lineup of cars. Essentially, it’s a replacement for both the old C-…
It’s silly not to offer a hybrid option for your minivan. Chrysler proved that concept with the Pacifica plug-in hybrid, and Toyota arguably perfected the art with the redesigned 2020 Sienna, available exclusively as a hybrid. Now Kia aims to disrupt that space with the luxurious and affordable 2025 Carnival HEV. The Carnival HEV marks a serious improvement for Kia’s minivan, and it should help build considerable momentum for the brand. Since Kia introduced the Carnival as a Sedona replacement for 2022, sales have grown steadily. But last year, Carnival sales skyrocketed by 93%. Quick Specs 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid…
