2016 BMW X5 xDrive40e: Luxury with a Touch of Green4.0/5

BMW has been steadily improving their green-vehicle options of late with the release of their all-electric i3 and i8 models. That technology has started to make its way into the rest of the lineup in the form of hybrid electric versions of more popular vehicles such as the X5, and …January 2, 2017

2016 Infiniti Q50 Red Sport 400: Sleeper Fans Rejoice4.0/5

It's going on three years now since Infiniti's 2014 brand-naming shakeup, which saw all sedans inherit a Q designation and all SUVs inherit the letters QX. Most car buffs and a portion of the general population have probably swallowed that sour pill, but as much as the brand would like …December 26, 2016

2017 Mitsubishi Mirage G4: Slowly, But Surely3.0/5

The minicar segment is as small as the cars that populate it, yet Mitsubishi likely figured it was on to something when it introduced the Mirage hatchback on the Canadian market. At the time, it was to compete with the Chevrolet Spark, the Fiat 500 and the smart fortwo. No …December 22, 2016

2016 Fiat 500X: Priced Out of Contention3.0/5

With a rather small product lineup in North America, Fiat needed a winner. A bread-and-butter model that would bring in some much-need traffic on its showroom floors. The 500X crossover was to be that model. After all, chic compact SUVs are extremely popular right now, so it was written in …December 21, 2016

2016 Mazda CX-9: a Contender Once Again4.0/5

The 2016 Mazda CX-9 is a completely redesigned, midsized SUV aimed to go head to head against stalwarts like the Honda Pilot, the Nissan Pathfinder and the Toyota Highlander. The outgoing, first-generation model was getting very long in the tooth. The new exterior design brings the CX-9 in line with …December 19, 2016

2017 Volvo S90: Swede-swiping the Competition4.5/5

Being close-minded is the best way to miss out on countless amazing things in life. I long ago understood that saying “I don’t like…” or “I’m not interested” to various opportunities served only to limit my personal growth. Take it from me; give life and all it has to offer …December 15, 2016

2016 Ford Focus RS: It's Good to Feel Young Again4.5/5

From the first moment I hit the ignition button on the 2016 Ford Focus RS, I knew it was going to be a very enjoyable week. It had been a while since I'd driven a hot hatch and it's easy to forget how much fun they are. The RS stands …December 14, 2016

2016 Cadillac CT6: Family Feud3.5/5

The American brand set out to battle the well-established players in the full-size luxury segment by introducing the new CT6. While it isn’t the biggest car Cadillac has ever made—who likely will never be able to say that again—it is the largest car in the current lineup. Bigger than the …December 8, 2016

2016 BMW 750i xDrive: The One to Beat… for Now4.0/5

When shoppers dish out more than $100K on a luxury car, they’re entitled to expect the best, and German brands strive to give them just that. The full-size luxury sedan segment offers some of the most sumptuous, powerful and technologically advanced machines on the market, and the BMW 7 Series …December 5, 2016

2016 Honda Pilot Touring: Minivan Killer4.0/5

As a father of three toddler-aged boys, a minivan was somewhat of a necessity for me. The amount of space that baby seats, buckets, baby bags and all the other equipment required to support a family of this size make a minivan a must-have item. Unfortunately, there is a negative …November 30, 2016

2016 BMW M2: Glory in its Simplest Form4.5/5

When the size and girth of the M3 and M4 steadily increased over the past few generations, there were grumblings from BMW traditionalists bemoaning the ever-increasing dimensions of the vehicle and longing for the days of their compact E30 M3s from the early 1990s. BMW did offer the 1 Series …November 28, 2016

2016 Dodge Charger and Challenger SRT 392: Would you Like your Poison in Two or Four Doors?4.0/5

In the long list of performance machines that is the Dodge Charger/Challenger lineup, somewhat lost between the relatively affordable Scat Pack and the headline-grabbing Hellcat is the SRT 392. I had the opportunity to test both the Charger and Challenger on back-to-back weeks, which was helpful for comparison reasons. The …November 22, 2016
