2012 Chevrolet Orlando: Exotic name, acceptable execution4.0/5

I must admit that the Orlando name is kind of catchy. It evokes the Florida heat, Disney World, Sea World and so on. And yet, despite its distinctly Floridian moniker, this crossover is exclusive to Canadians, as our neighbours to the south decided not to distribute it (although it’s relatively …November 24, 2011

2011 Chevrolet Equinox: Worth a look3.5/5

The Chevrolet Equinox is one of several interesting vehicles in the compact SUV category, and its latest generation – introduced last year – continues to play its cards right. So much so that the Equinox, which is manufactured in Ingersoll, Ontario, can hold its own with the category’s big guns, …November 17, 2011

2012 Chevrolet Sonic: Simple ingredients for a very tasty dish...4.0/5

The brand new Chevrolet Sonic is replacing the Aveo, which will hardly be missed. If all that matters to you is whether or not the Sonic is better than its predecessor, the answer is a resounding YES, so you can stop reading immediately. But if you want to know if …October 7, 2011

2012 Chevrolet Orlando: Upgrades and corrections3.5/5

In the early 80s, Chrysler broke new ground with the Dodge Caravan and Plymouth Voyager. Over time, these vehicles grew in size, in keeping with trends. Just a few years ago, Mazda unveiled its 5, a modern version of the minivan. Then Kia followed with the Rondo. Then Dodge with …August 31, 2011

2012 Chevrolet Volt – The ideal solution?4.5/5

Seldom has a car garnered so much attention. Since its unveiling at the 2007 Detroit Auto Show, this car has been the subject countless reviews, both good and bad. At first, people said "GM will never go into production with a car like this. It’s just a flash in the …August 11, 2011

Camaro V6 Convertible: Is 6 > 8?4.0/5

It’s all too easy to gang up on General Motors. In fact, it’s all too easy to gang up on American auto manufacturers in general. In fact, it’s not the crash safety standards, emissions, or consumption legislation that Ford, Chevy, and Dodge fear… it’s the perception they must endure. But …July 30, 2011

The 2011 Camaro SS Convertible: Electronic Wizardy Goes Too Far3.0/5

Lord, did I ever want to like this car. As a former Camaro owner never quite lucky enough to stumble upon the ’69 Z28 I always wanted, the notion of these new, retro Camaros has had me excited ever since Bumblebee leapt onto the silver screen a few years back. July 23, 2011

2011 Chevy Cruze: Can it live up to the hype?4.0/5

There’s something to be said for under-promising and over-delivering on one’s goals; just ask Stephen Harper… or any one of the Vancouver Canucks, for that matter. People are sadistic individuals (again, reference Vancouver) just looking for a way to get a leg up on their fellow man by any means …June 18, 2011

Chevrolet Camaro ZL 585 by SLP: Power to spare4.0/5

Once known as muscle cars, North American sports cars have been enjoying resurgence over the last three years. Incidentally, that’s since the Chevrolet Camaro and Dodge Challenger came on the scene, joining the Ford Mustang and its years of uninterrupted production. With the public firmly behind more environmentally friendly cars …May 12, 2011

Showdown between the 2011 Chevrolet Cruze and Hyundai Elantra

Comparative Tests

The match of the month pits two recently launched compacts against one another. On one side, there’s the new Cruze, which General Motors is really counting on. On the other side, there’s the completely redesigned Hyundai Elantra. The winds of change are starting to blow with the arrival of these …May 4, 2011

2012 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible – Top notch!4.5/5

A little less than two years ago, the Chevrolet division offered up its Camaro sport coupe, after an absence of several years. It came back with an extremely modern shape and a platform developed in Australia by the Holden division, the manufacturer’s rear wheel drive specialist. Impressive handling, a heck …February 24, 2011

2011 Chevy Camaro RS: Can You Have Your Cake and Eat It Too?4.5/5

I can remember it like it was yesterday; it’s flat green paint looking distinctly haggard in the gleaming sun, the creased front fender leeching the rainbow hues of iron oxide down its flanks. Inside, the interior appeared to be unchanged since its creation in 1970, the familiar four speed shifter …December 25, 2010
