The 2020 Nissan 370Z is old enough to be an awkward 12-year old middle school student. With an interior that was barely modern in 2009 and a gravely powertrain to match, the Z’s old-school approach may put some potential buyers off. As far as pure sports car experiences go...Read More»
The 2020 Acura TLX is a mid-size luxury sedan with sporty aspirations that delivers spirited performance and impressive value. It grabs a 6.5 on our scale. (Read more about how we rate cars.) The 2020 TLX hasn’t changed much aside from a new, limited-edition trim built on the same...Read More»
The 2020 Toyota 4Runner is an SUV that may owe its continued existence to the way the “Jurassic Park” franchise reignited an interest in dinosaurs. The 4Runner’s basic, off-road design makes it a relic compared to car-like crossover SUVs. Beneath its bulky exterior...Read More»
The 2019 BMW 8-Series revives a badge that’s been dormant for 20 years. It replaces the former 6-Series, and takes a spot at the top of BMW’s numeric charts, while it takes up rent-free space in our head. The coupe or convertible is lovely to look at and to drive, though...Read More»
It's been a 21-year wait, but sports car fans finally have a new Supra from Toyota. The 2020 Toyota Supra returns as a hatchback coupe developed as a collaboration between Toyota Gazoo Racing and BMW. It features inline-6 power, which enthusiasts will view as a proper engine for a...Read More»
With the 2019 3-Series, BMW wants to remind the world that it makes the compact sport sedans that define what sport sedans actually are. Nevermind that its own X3 SUV is superior for carrying people, and comes eerily close to the 3-Series performance bogeys of steering and...Read More»
The 2019 Nissan Altima needed a hook. It found two. New this year, the 2019 Altima adds optional all-wheel drive and an optional high-po turbo-4 borrowed from Infiniti—except both can’t be had together. That’s fine, and what’s left for buyers who don’t opt...Read More»
For many years the Mazda 3 has been the compact-car go-to for drivers who can’t afford to leave practicality and frugality by the wayside. With the new 2019 Mazda 3, the automaker isn’t completely abandoning that philosophy, but it is carving out the space for an entirely...Read More»
The 2019 Fiat 500X is a small crossover SUV that speaks with a faint Italian accent. It’s built in Italy and is chock full of retro design cues from the smaller Fiat 500, but the 2019 500X shares its underpinnings with the Jeep Renegade. Overall, we rate the 500X lineup at 5.6 out...Read More»
The 2019 Nissan 370Z hasn’t changed much in its 11 model years on the road. This year is no different. It’s returned with new paint colors and not much else, which leaves this sports coupe firmly stuck in its 2009 release year. We give the 370Z a 5.6 overall with...Read More»
The 2019 VW Arteon is a mid-size sedan that straddles the line between mainstream and luxury, with a stylish body that disguises its impressive utility. We rate the 2019 Arteon at 6.4 out of 10, a figure that could climb once it’s crash-tested. (Read more about how we rate cars.)...Read More»
The 2019 Volvo S60 puts great faith in the idea that many luxury-car drivers still want four doors without tall wagon bodies. Volvo builds some of the best crossovers we’ve driven, but now it also builds one of the luxury sport sedans we’d rate among the finest. We give it a...Read More»
