  • 2017 Volvo S90 T6 AWD Inscription

    I don't think there's a single brand that has a stronger identity than Volvo. Hear me out. Its focus on safety and reserved, stylish design with just a hint of Swedish flair and modernism survived Ford's perpetually rudderless, mismanaged Premier Automotive Group. Meanwhile, anyone who thought Chinese ownership would stamp out this unique character has been proven wrong. If anything, Volvo's identity under Geely is stronger than ever. Take the new S90, for example. I spent a week in the handsome 2017 S90 doing what most of its owners do—commuting. I slogged up and down Interstate 75...

  • 2018 BMW M550d xDrive Touring

Perhaps, then, BMW’s 3.0-liter quad-turbocharged inline-6 that’s just been fitted to the 2018 M550d is the last hurrah for diesel technology, at least as far as...
