The ES is the elegant midsized sedan in the Lexus lineup, slotting in between the compact IS and the larger GS. When I say “elegant sedan” I mean it literally as that’s what the letters ES stand for. It’s nice that Lexus chose letters that have a minutia of meaning …May 30, 2016

2016 Nissan LEAF: Take it for a Spin4.5/5

The title of this review is essentially a slogan and to be honest, it kind of bums me out. I should come up with something far cleverer like “electrically yours” or “green leafy substance,” but the fact of the matter is that Nissan’s LEAF requires only to be taken for …May 27, 2016

2016 Range Rover HSE Td6: The Best of Many Worlds4.5/5

2015 BMW i8: A Road Less Travelled4.0/5

2016 Lamborghini Huracán LP 580-2: Not for the Faint of Heart4.5/5

I’ve driven a few Lambos over the years, but never one that could have just as easily killed me. This, I swear to you, is a very good thing, not my death mind you, but the fact that the LP 580-2 is a true supercar. I’ve lamented the disappearance of …May 20, 2016

2017 Hyundai Santa Fe XL: large in its title, not in its drive4.0/5

Hyundai got a jump on 2017 by releasing a few of those model-year vehicles ahead of most automakers. One of those is the highly popular Santa Fe SUV, and we got our hands on its XL Limited trim version for a test drive. The 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe XL can …May 16, 2016

2016 Volvo XC90 T8 Inscription: Efficiency, Luxury and Performance4.5/5

If you’re a fan of evolution and watching history unfold, sit back, relax and tune in to Volvo. This underdog carmaker is taking on the established world of the posh high-end German luxury brands and teaching them a thing or two along the way. The task at hand is monumental, …May 11, 2016

2016 Nissan Versa Note: the Big Subcompact3.5/5

The Canadian market has a preference for small cars that mix versatility, fuel economy and an affordable price tag.

2016 Lexus RC 350 F Sport: A Looker and a Goer4.0/5

A few short years ago, Lexus products were well-made, comfortable and pretty reliable. However, their styling was bland and they were as fun behind the wheel as filing your tax return. If they wanted to reach a younger crowd and driving enthusiasts, Lexus needed to inject some personality into their …April 21, 2016

2016 Ford Escape: Steady Eddie3.5/5

Since the turn into the twenty-tens decade, the Ford Escape has been the sales king of the Canadian compact crossover segment. Not only did it get into the top five of all Canadian vehicle sales, it held at times a 10,000-unit lead over its next segment competitor. For 2016, not …April 18, 2016

2016 Mazda CX-5: For the Enthusiast in All of Us4.0/5

Some people think that they have to stop having fun behind the wheel when they have kids, that it's now time to sell the sports car and get into a minivan or a boring SUV to shuttle the little ones around. While some begrudgingly accept their fate and buy a …April 6, 2016
