In times of change, some people like options that allow them to keep it the way it’s always been.
Forget EVs. They want a V8 under the hood.
In the automotive world, that is nowhere more true than when we talk about the few remaining holdouts offering truck-based, body-on-frame large SUVs toting powerful V8 engines.
Nissan’s Armada fits right into this category, and while it may seem to some folks like a relic in today’s world, vehicles like the Armada still have their places for fans of the big and bold.
I recently spent some time behind the wheel of a 2023 Armada; read on to learn more about the vehicle and who might want to pick one up.
Subaru owners have never been the type to follow trends, and have always gone their own way. So it’s fitting a vehicle like the Subaru Crosstrek comes from the automaker.
This outdoor-friendly offering — completely redesigned for 2024 — is a niche offering that offers a unique set of capabilities that most other SUVs in its class don’t share.
This small crossover doesn’t aim to be the fastest in its class, but it does aim to be the most capable in all weather conditions, and a vehicle you’re comfortable taking onto the back roads without fear.
I recently tested a Crosstrek in the Premium trim level, but the big news this year is that Subaru has unveiled a Wilderness model that’s especially off-road friendly.
Read on for everything you need to know about the all-new 2024 Crosstrek.
As all automakers work to step up their game in the EV sector, Nissan is finally growing its EV presence with the new Ariya SUV.
An early adopter with the Nissan Leaf EV being on sale for more than a decade, Nissan has now delivered a strong second EV entry. All new for 2023, the Nissan Ariya delivers a bold look unlike anything else in the Nissan lineup, and expands the brand’s EV footprint beyond the long-running Nissan Leaf.
The Ariya represents a logical step into the EV world for fans of the top-selling Nissan Rogue SUV, as the Ariya is sized similarly to the Rogue.
I spent some time behind the wheel of a 2023 Nissan Ariya Empower+, and I’m back with a full report on how it holds up in a growing and competitive EV market with offerings from Tesla (Model Y), Kia (EV6/EV9), Hyundai (Kona), Ford (Mach-E Mustang), Volkswagen (ID.4), Chevy (Bolt EUV) and more.
Big. Beautiful. Bold. Beast.
I recently spent some time behind the wheel of a 2023 BMW X7 M60i, and all these words apply to this luxury SUV.
The X7 is the biggest vehicle in BMW’s SUV lineup, and comes equipped with loads of power that make it a front-runner despite stiff competition from SUVs such as the Mercedes-Benz GLS, Cadillac Escalade, Range Rover and Lincoln Navigator.
Updates have been made to both the exterior and interior of the X7 for the 2023 model, further solidifying its status as a segment leader.
Read on for a full evaluation of how the X7 holds up in the competitive world of three-row luxury SUVs.
In the SUV business, where competition is increasingly cutthroat, a brand has to have as many tools in its arsenal as possible.
For Hyundai, its Santa Fe midsize SUV has been around for over two decades, and currently offers just about every variant you can imagine — from ICE versions, to standard hybrid, to plug-in hybrid (PHEV).
Of note is that the Santa Fe is wrapping up its current design before its radically different, brand new 2024 version goes on sale early next year. As is the case when any redesign occurs, the opportunity may arise to catch a price break on 2023 Santa Fe models that dealers may want off the lot.
I recently tested a 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe PHEV — which competes mainly with plug-in hybrid options from Ford, Toyota, Kia and others — and I’m back with a full report.
