(January 1, 2023) Last year, the Toyota Camry became available in the Nightshade Edition offered with the hybrid powertrain. Nightshade is a trim only package that includes a black front sport mesh grille borrowed from the Camry TRD trim level. There’s also Bi-LED headlamps with black surround along with the same feature on the LED taillamps along with black trimmed exterior pieces like badges, mirror caps and a slim rear deck spoiler to complete the black theme.

(December 28, 2022) It’s the hottest 8-seat, 3-row SUV on the market with such a selling success that Kia literally can’t build enough of them to meet consumer demand. So much so that Kia is upping production at its West Point, Ga., manufacturing plant by 25 percent to around 120,000 a year.  It’s  the 4th bestselling 3-row SUV in America. In fact, it’s the one I recommend the most for anyone looking for a family friendly 3-row vehicle.

(December 17, 2022) We’ve been saying it for years — the 4Runner is well past its freshness date and more than due for a complete redo. Still, over the years I’ve grown to soften my critique of the “ancient” 4Runner, that continues to set sales records, and in a quirky way I've learned to love it for what it is — simple, rugged, dependable and still highly sought after whether new or used.

(December 12, 2022) One of the main sticking points and objections consumers have when considering the move to an all-electric vehicle has been among others the cost of the vehicle. For Mercedes-Benz’s electrification product offerings in the U.S., it’s been a six-figure decision with EQS Sedans and EQS SUV starting north of six-figures until now. However, with the introduction of the EQB SUV, pricing starts a little more than half that amount at $54,500 (plus $1050 destination and delivery). That’s also before a $7,500 U.S. federal tax incentive for electric vehicles.

(December 4, 2022) The first fully electric U.S. Mercedes-EQ rolled into dealer showrooms about a year ago with the EQS sedan and was also the first EQ lineage built on the dedicated platform the German automaker dubbed EVA. We recently reviewed that vehicle and came away super impressed with its rear-wheel steering, a respectable driving range of 350 miles between charges and was further surprised with an AMG version that delivers 649 horsepower and a massive 700 lb.-ft of torque.

(November 27, 2022) No automaker continues to roll out new special edition models one after the other for their vehicle product lineup than Stellantis whose brands include Alpha Romeo, Fiat, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, RAM trucks and more. Not only do special additions extend the design, they fine-tune the product offerings and tailors them to meet the specific needs and desires of buyers. Recent RAM truck special editions have included 10h Anniversary Edition, Red Edition, Chris Stapleton “Traveller” Edition, and Night Edition to name but a few.

(November 22, 2022) Completely ground-up redesigned and all-new for the 2022 model year, the excellent and luxurious QX60 rolls into 2023 with its dramatic styling, post interior class swagger missing from the previous generation model. The QX60 is a mid-to-large luxury crossover with three-row, six or seven-passenger seating and all-wheel-drive. Since it was all-new last year, there’s few changes for 2023 including a wireless charging pad, frameless rearview mirror and minor gloss-black accents on the exterior.

(November 13, 2022) One’s expectations of which premium-luxury sedan reigns as the automotive crown jewel ranges from established German brands selling in price from $100,000 to $250,00 including Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Audi A8, BMW 7 Series and Porsche Panamera. Most would agree the winner is Mercedes from the auto Barons of Stuttgart with an admirable job at great expense delivering the pampered wealthy elite the most over-the-top, best luxury sedan in the World.
