(May 18, 2023) It seems about every 20 years, BMW gets radical with the 7-Series.  Remember back a couple of decades to the 2003 model that debuted the iDrive infotainment system and “Bangle butt” raised trunklid, named for former BMW design chief, Chris Bangle.  Eventually, though, BMW’s competitors copied the car’s controls and rump.  As BMW configures the 7-Series for an electric future, it gives a radical makeover that nods to the past and future in the 2023 760i xDrive.

(May 21, 2023) For those who can clear the $100,000 hurdle, the 2023 Land Rover Range Rover is a great choice for their family vehicle. It comes with three strong engine choices, exhibits a refined and dynamic driving quality, rides like it's on a puffy white cloud, features a delightfully styled and spacious interior, is dressed in attractive yet conservative styling that will draw admiring glances, and comes loaded with safety technology. Oh yeah, it can also go off road with the best of them — if you really want to take your north-of-100-grand vehicle to the mud and rocks.

(May 14, 2023) BMW’s M2 sports coupe moves aggressively into its second generation with the 2023 BMW M2 Coupe offering the joy of a manual gearbox, rear-wheel drive, and lots of technological features to satisfy 21st Century customers. Oh, sure, an 8-speed double-clutch transmission is available, but to experience all that the 2023 BMW M2 Coupe has to offer in the way of driving fun you need to stick with the stick.

(May 14, 2023) Ford’s crossover-based Maverick pickup comes standard as an 42-MPG hybrid starting at $22,595.  It even looks great in its standard steelie wheels with a cloth interior.  Good luck getting one, though, because the order books are closed for 2023.  Still, some may want a bit more attitude and capability than base models provide.  For them, let’s take a spin in the uplifted and face-lifted Maverick Tremor.

(May 7, 2023) The news of a modern dedicated M vehicle from BMW had us scramble to Google to garner some facts and observations from the M Division's last dedicated product, way back in 1978 — the much-awarded M1 sports car. It weighed in at about 3,000 pounds and developed 274 horsepower from a mid-engine 3.5-liter straight six mated to a five-speed manual transmission. Its numbers — 0 to 60 in about 5.5 seconds with a top speed of 162 mph, outstanding 45 years ago.
