It may have looked more than just a bit weird but the Capsula really pushed the boundaries when it came to packaging. Here was a car that could be a car, van or just about any other type of vehicle, just by plonking a different bodyshell onto the chassis that contained all of the Alfasud boxer engine and running gear. MG E-XE (1985) Perennially broke British Leyland/Austin Rover/MG Rover rarely created pricey concept cars, but this E-XE proved they could pull it off when they tried. It clearly influences the MGF sports car that arrived a decade after the E-XE…

Picture this. You’ve got a slow Saturday, a car that needs a tire rotation, and about forty-five minutes of patience left in you. You call the dealership. The earliest appointment? Next Thursday. Maybe Wednesday if there’s a cancellation. And the hold music, for some reason, is playing a smooth jazz cover of something you almost recognize. Sound familiar? If you’ve owned a vehicle in Texas for more than a few years, it probably does. That kind of friction, the waiting, the scheduling, the “we’ll have someone call you back,” has quietly been pushing drivers toward a smarter option.…

The GV90 will be available with Rolls-Royce-like coach doors as Genesis upscales into higher-end segments. With an expected debut soon, an uncovered model was found abandoned in a field alongside other Lucid, Hyundai, and Audi vehicles. When will the Genesis GV90 with coach doors debut? It’s been over two years since Genesis first unveiled the Neolun concept, a full-size “ultra-luxe” SUV that will go on sale as GV90. It’s the “epitome of timeless design and sophisticated craftsmanship,” according to Luc Donckerwolke, Genesis’ head creative officer. The reductive design is inspired by Korea’s iconic moon-shaped porcelain jars, with no unnecessary detailing,…

The GLC may not look outrageously different to the ICE GLC, but it is a substantially bigger car, at more than 100mm longer overall and with a useful 84mm of extra metal between the axles for a tangible boost in leg room in both rows. Head room is slightly better, too, and while the boot is slightly smaller, at 520 litres, it’s supplemented by a relatively whopping 128-litre frunk that will take the charging cables and all your family’s muddy boots.  It feels pretty massive inside: bright, airy (partly courtesy of the standard panoramic sunroof) and far better packaged than the old…

There are currently several hybrid crossover and SUV options available in the U.S., but only a fraction of these feature three rows and are made by a Japanese manufacturer. This may seem like a very specific criterion, but a product that fits into this category typically benefits from good efficiency, reliability, and build quality. These are one of the most important qualities for a lot of families who are considering a daily driven SUV which will likely cover a lot of mileage within a year. Another specific factor that may stand out is how many miles a vehicle can cover…

Stellantis has had its back against the wall in recent times, with falling sales and various high-profile recall programs undermining the trust it has in the eyes of the public. The automotive giant, which was the result of a merger between Fiat-Chrysler and the PSA group that includes brands like Citroën and Peugeot, has thus struggled to deliver on the promise that the landmark partnership offered when it was established five years ago. Many of its brands have failed to make much progress in an ever-more cut-throat automotive landscape hit by ever-tightening emissions regulations and increasing production costs. Having reported…
