VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — I’m undecided there’s one other latest vehicle on the market that permits you to make an entrance comparable to the 2024 Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600. When ostentatiousness and an expression of wealth are king, absolutely nothing does the trick higher than pulling up within the Maybach’s “Free Driving Assist” mode. For the uninitiated, that’s the bounce mode that uses the SUV’s advanced E-Lively Body Control tech to quite literally bounce you up and down in quick order for a pre-determined period of time. In fact, there’s a slim-to-zero probability anybody uses this mode as originally intended: to…
Pros: Stellar exterior design; easy-to-use and modern tech; epic ZR2 off-road variant Cons: Interior feels low cost on lower trims; low-output engine is a bummer The 2024 Chevrolet Colorado stands tall as our favourite midsize pickup truck this yr for a number of reasons. For one, it drives exceedingly well with a stout engine, solid ride and superb off-road variants for whatever use case. The inside is jam-packed with tech that each looks great and works even higher. And sure, the lower trims feel a bit low cost, but a base Colorado Work Truck may be had at a respectably…
Pros: Stellar exterior styling for all trims; punchy powertrain; outstanding AT4X off-road trims; great tech and interior amenities Cons: Just one cab/bed combination; gets expensive quick; firm ride for many trims The 2024 GMC Canyon is a superb midsize pickup. So is the Chevrolet Colorado, its bowtie-branded twin, though with the brand new generation, the Canyon does a greater job than ever of differentiating itself. It starts with the styling where GMC offers a pick-your-own-adventure amongst the varied trims. You may go classy and upscale with a Denali or rugged and mean with the AT4. Off-road junkies can find all…
Remember the Genesis X Speedium Coupe Concept that was part-shooting brake, part-sportback from somewhat over a 12 months ago? Well, it’s back, and it’s wearing a brand new coat of white paint and outfitted for winter. In a little bit of a surprise, Genesis posted photos of what it’s calling the Genesis X Snow Speedium Concept on its socials this week, and it’s arguably just as stunning as after we first saw it on the N.Y. Auto Show. Yeah, we’re somewhat sad to see the gorgeous Inje Green paint go, nevertheless it’s hard to argue against this seasonal decor. The…
Declaring one infotainment system the most effective over every other is an inherently subjective matter. You may take a look at quantitative testing for things like input response time and various screen load times, but ask a room filled with folks that have tried all automobile infotainment systems what their favorite is, and also you’re prone to get a variety of different responses. For essentially the most part, the varied infotainment systems available all share an analogous purpose. They aim to assist the driving force get where they are going with navigation, play their favorite tunes via all kinds of…
The Nio ET9 just made its debut, and it’s the newest electric vehicle from the Chinese company Nio that’s pushing the boundaries on EV specs. As for the Nio lineup of vehicles, the ET9 slots in right at the highest as the corporate’s recent “executive flagship” vehicle. It skews more toward the look of a sportback in shape, but its height puts it somewhere within the awkward middle ground between sedans and crossovers. Irrespective of the design, it’s big at 206 inches in length. That puts it in the identical size category as an everyday Mercedes-Benz S-Class. More impressive than…
HELL, Mich. – The 2023 Mercedes-AMG SL 43 is the high-dollar luxury convertible comparable to the Mustang turbo vs. V8 debate. In other words, don’t rule out this four-cylinder Benz simply because it has half as many cylinders as its 55 and 63 siblings. We’ve driven those, and while largely impressed with what those convertibles must offer, they sure aren’t picture-perfect. Enter the 43 with its longitudinally-mounted 2.0-liter turbocharged (to-the-moon) four-cylinder engine. What makes the 43 desirable is less about what’s in it, though, and more about what isn’t – roughly 350 kilos of curb weight. That features all that’s…
Don’t call it Sentry Mode, however the refreshed 2024 Ford F-150 has some neat recent security measures that make a complete lot of practical sense. Being the best-selling vehicle within the country yearly implies that the F-150 also tends to search out itself high on “most-stolen” lists by virtue of there being so lots of them on the market, so it’s great to see Ford taking security more seriously than ever before. The system shown on the Detroit Auto Show doesn’t have a elaborate name beyond “Stolen Vehicle Services,” but we suspect it’s a package any (even barely) paranoid owner…
