Car Reviews

You need a new vehicle and it has to be bigger. You have many people and lots of stuff to carry around. You have ruled out a minivan because that’s just not you. What’s left is a three-row SUV of some type. But what if you’d like your new ride to be an attractive, well-designed and responsive vehicle with good handling, and not a big, heavy truck? If this sounds like you, your prayers have been answered!

Imagine you are wealthy beyond all measurement of the term. You are a member of the top one percent of the top one percent. You are a connoisseur with an extensive collection of cars, yachts, and aircraft. You can afford to acquire any vehicle, no matter how rare or expensive. There is nothing you cannot have. What do you do for an encore?

You Have A Unique Car Designed And Built Just For You

The 2018 Acura RDX is the compact SUV in Acura’s model lineup. Like most Acura models, it is based on a comparable Honda – in this case the CR-V. While it is built atop the CR-V platform, the 2018 RDX takes things to the next level, in terms of equipment, luxury, technology, and price. The 2018 RDX is now available at dealers.

The new 2017 Kia Niro has a lot going for it. It is a compact crossover that has the look and the space to appeal to many buyers in today’s SUV-crazy market. It also gets great mileage, with an EPA-estimated rating of up to 50 MPG Combined. That is pretty amazing, until you look closer and see that the 2017 Niro is actually a gasoline-electric hybrid. But Kia would rather you not make a big deal about that…

Early Hybrid History

The 2017 Ford Fusion is a perfectly adequate midsize sedan. The current model represents the Fusion’s second generation. It has been on the market since the 2013 model year. For the first five months of 2017, the Fusion is the fourth place midsize sedan in sales, behind Accord, Camry, and Altima. 

There’s something about a BMW convertible. It is sleek, it is sexy, it is a car to be seen in. It also promises an amazing experience behind the wheel, as befits The Ultimate Driving Machine.

The minivan segment is shrinking. Back in the minivan heyday of the mid-1980s through the early 2000s, just about every manufacturer had one in their lineup. Today, we are down to five: Honda Odyssey, Toyota Sienna, Chrysler Pacifica, Kia Sedona, and the ancient Dodge Grand Caravan.

The 2018 Acura TLX lives in a gray area between the Accord sedan that it is derived from and the established compact luxury sedans from BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, and Lexus. Because the TLX retains the Accord’s front-wheel drive platform and major mechanicals, it is easy to see it as an Accord with the super deluxe treatment. And while that is not such a bad thing, it doesn’t quite elevate the 2018 TLX to the same level as its luxury competitors.

The 2017 Cadillac Escalade is General Motors’ largest and most expensive passenger vehicle. It is also its most profitable. Built on the same platform as the Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban, which start at $47,215 and $49,915 respectively, the Escalade starts at $74,590 and can top out at over $105,000 if you check all the boxes on the order form.
