When it comes to the midsize luxury crossover SUV sales charts, it’s the 2019 Lexus RX and everyone else. What began as a smooth, reliable foil to the German competitive set has become edgier in recent years, at least as far as its design is concerned, and Lexus has decided to...Read More»
When it comes to its 2019 Tundra, Toyota moves at a glacial pace. The full-size pickup truck has its loyalists, but its dated design and guzzling V-8 engines make it a hard sell against more modern trucks from every rival. Overall, we rate the 2019 Tundra at 5.0 out of 10 points. (Read...Read More»
The 2019 Toyota 4Runner waves a tattered flag for off-roaders. It’s a beefy, truck-like SUV that stands in marked contrast to crossovers such as Toyota’s own Highlander parked across the showroom. With the 2019 4Runner, Toyota has an adventure-mobile better suited to the...Read More»
The 2019 Toyota Tacoma pickup truck has its work cut out for it, and we’re not just talking about how its owners may use it. Over just a few years, the Tacoma went from having just one rival—the Nissan Frontier—to enough to keep cross-shoppers on the test-drive circuit...Read More»
Some of the best prizefighters were never heavyweights. See Sugar Ray Robinson for proof. The 2019 Subaru BRZ is just as sweet*. The small sport coupe returns this year, minus a big wing but still with the same winning formula that takes on rivals twice its cost. We give the coupe a 5.5...Read More»
The 2019 Nissan Versa sedan and hatchback deliver a new car smell and three-year warranty at rock-bottom prices. The old maxim, “You get what you pay for” applies otherwise. Overall, the 2019 Versa is good for 3.8 out of 10 on our scale. (Read more about how we rate cars.)...Read More»
The 2019 Hyundai Sonata knows it needs to jazz things up to draw eyes away from the crossover SUVs just across the showroom floor. Sedans have taken a back seat to utility vehicles, so the Sonata now wears a fancy front end, has five different powertrains on its order sheet, and dresses...Read More»
The 2019 Chevy Traverse takes a bland family wagon idea and steers it toward the men’s clothing department. Upgraded last year, inside and out, the Traverse stands pat with a couple new options for shoppers. It earns a 6.4 on our overall scale thanks to superlative space inside...Read More»
The 2019 BMW 3-Series follows the rest of the BMW mainstream lineup toward a tech-heavy push—it's a surprise that BMW isn't calling it the "3.0-Series." With the 2019 3-Series, BMW kept largely the same hardware, but the "software" of the car received its biggest update in a...Read More»
The 2019 Chevrolet Bolt EV’s long 238-mile range has helped it outrun competitors. That may change soon. For now, we give the all-electric hatchback a 6.8 on our overall scale. Its long range and fun electric powertrain buoy sagging safety and comfort scores. (Read more about how...Read More»
When it comes to compact sedans, the 2019 Nissan Sentra is a wallflower. It’s roomy enough for four adults, fuel efficient for its class, and packs just enough features to keep most buyers happy but fails to deliver on driving delight and design. We’ve rated it 4.8 overall...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»
