The Lexus NX is the middle child in Lexus’ SUV lineup. Sandwiched between the smaller UX and the larger RX and LX SUVs, the NX was mostly forgotten. But the compact luxury SUV now gets a new generation with an evolved design and better tech.
The Ford Maverick compact truck is a long-awaited launch and its birth was triggered by a trend. In the past couple of decades, we have seen monocoque crossovers gain ground over old-school ladder-frame based SUVs. With the arrival of the Maverick, Ford is looking to shake up the U.S. pickup truck segment, even if past attempts at crossover pickups by Honda and Subaru produced a lukewarm response.
Years and years of consistent performance, immense popularity or extreme capability. Any one of these three qualities may usually suffice for a car to be called a legend. But seldom do we find a car that flaunts all three. The Toyota Land Cruiser is such a machine that has been successful in keeping its legacy alive for decades. With its outgoing-generation LC 200 going on for donkey’s years and losing market share to the Y62-gen Nissan Patrol, the 2022 Toyota Land Cruiser LC300 is long overdue. And it is here now, and boy oh boy, it is all new.
Kia has revealed the official images of the all-new 2022 Sportage, bringing groundbreaking interior and exterior design to a segment littered with boring players.
The month of May 2021 turns out to be a breather for the automotive scene with just a handful of recalls around the globe. Here is the list.
While a 2.5 ton SUV cannot be called sporty, Bentley is making a successful go at it, and decided to offer their mammoth Bentayga in another flavour. The Bentayga S joins the luxury SUV range as a sportier middle ground between the base V8 Bentayga and the full-blown Bentayga Speed V12.
Lifted wagons (not crossovers) were in a niche of their own three decades ago, with only a few still being sold nowadays to lukewarm sales. They seem to be making a minor comeback though. Ford has joined in on the trend with their new creation for the Chinese market, named the Evos.
Even though the name Bentley is synonymous with massive luxobarges that are filled to the brim with wood and cowhide, there always existed a “Speed” model that pushes the performance envelope of the heavy Bentley, making it go as fast as it possibly can. The new generation of the Continental GT Speed gets more tech and power than ever to make it the most capable of all Bentleys to date.
When it comes to funky car designs, Citroën sits tightly on the throne. And now they have broken out all their craziness to produce 2022 Citroën C5 X, giving company to the Peugeot 508 and DS9 as sister-model flagships. This sedan-wagon-crossover mashup takes on the likes of the Mercedes Benz E-Class, BMW 5 Series and the Audi A6, although it’s not quite premium enough for that crowd.
The recently-launched Mercedes Benz EQS was a significant addition to the top rung of the brand’s EV lineup while the EQA entered the scene as a stepping stone to the marque. In a bid to expand their electric-car portfolio further, the Mercedes-Benz EQB debuts in China with seating for seven and a maximum power output of 288 hp.
