Kahn Design is known for taking exotic sports and luxury vehicles and transforming them into aggressively styled bespoke builds. The latest machine to capture the British outfit's attention is the Bentley Bentayga. If you polled the average enthusiast on how they felt about the styling of the stock...

Early last year, its maker laid the Land Rover Defender to rest, but it certainly hasn't forgotten about the SUV. In fact, it still lets enthusiasts have a go behind the wheel of the iconic off-roader at its newly-launched Land Rover Experience. The brand announced the Land Rover Experience will...

Land Rover has already paired one of its diesel engines with an electric motor and battery pack to create a hybrid Range Rover. There's nothing too special about that model except its massive price premium and curb-weight jump. Now, though, Land Rover has a more optimized solution in the pipeline...

Crossover SUVs with three rows are all the rage with families, and one of the more handsome options in the mainstream segment is the Mazda CX-9. However, the CX-9 is just a tad too big for some markets so Mazda is introducing a slightly smaller, more dynamically-styled 3-row SUV called the CX-8...

From the sound of it, the Bentley Bentayga will soldier on as the luxury brand's sole SUV for the foreseeable future. Brand boss Wolfgang Dürheimer made this clear when he recently said an electric sports car has taken priority over a SUV slotting in below the Bentayga. The two models were the...

Porsche knows chemistry. Take an engine from the Porsche Panamera Turbo that can reach 150 mph (ask me how I know), and add the third-generation Cayenne. The solution is the 2019 Porsche Cayenne Turbo that appeared Tuesday at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show (IAA). Or maybe it's alchemy because the...

Jaguar is breaking new ground with one of the world’s first race series for a production-based electric car. We wouldn’t call it the first race series of its type, as a series using Tesla Model S-based racecars has already been announced, though this doesn’t at all diminish what...

BMW on Tuesday unveiled its redesigned X3 at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show. The unveiling follows an early look which took place in June at BMW’s plant in Spartanburg, South Carolina, where production is already underway. The first examples are due in showrooms in November, as 2018 models...

The Toyota Land Cruiser has grown to become quite the behemoth when compared to earlier generations. But that’s not the case for the version sold in some other markets. Known as the Land Cruiser Prado, the mid-size member of the Land Cruiser family is more closely related to the Lexus GX we...

BMW’s a bit late to the full-size SUV party, but as they say, “better late than never.” The German automaker has used its home show, this week's 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show, to present the X7 iPerformance concept, a hulking SUV with typical BMW design cues coupled with a plug-in...

Mercedes-Benz on Tuesday unveiled a hydrogen fuel cell-powered version of its popular GLC at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show. The vehicle is virtually production ready, though we won’t see it in showrooms until late 2019, the automaker has confirmed. Called the GLC F-Cell, the design is...

Jaguar Land Rover’s Special Vehicles Operations (SVO) is out to prove that its repertoire goes well beyond fast cars. It’s demonstrating this with the Land Rover Discovery SVX concept that debuted on Tuesday at the 2017 Frankfurt auto show. SVX is the opposing bookend to SVO’s SVR...

Hot on the heels of last month’s confirmation that an electric Microbus is coming based on the ID Buzz concept unveiled at the 2017 Detroit auto show, Volkswagen is showing us a new ID Crozz II concept that previews a small electric SUV due in 2020. The concept is an evolution of the ID Crozz...

One could be forgiven for thinking Porsche just hit copy on the company’s Xerox machine when designing the latest Cayenne, but there’s actually a lot of subtlety and fine details that make the third-generation model unique. A new video on the design of the latest Cayenne, which arrives...

Bollinger already showed off its all-electric B1 sport utility truck, but now the electric truck builder has returned with the first sketches of a four-door version, and we're excited. At the core of Bollinger is the desire to fill a niche in the electric vehicle space. That is a no-frills electric...

Toyota plans to occupy two ends of the SUV spectrum with its two global debuts at the 2017 Frankfurt auto show. The automaker announced a new Land Cruiser for the European market and a Toyota C-HR Hy-Power concept will be revealed at the show. Note, the European-spec Land Cruiser is different to...

There's a market for off-the-wall, armored, luxury SUVs. Just ask Dartz, which revealed its latest Black Alligator SUV at the 2017 Gumball 3000 rally. It's nearly impenetrable and its posh amenities emulate a Bentley or Rolls-Royce. Now, there's this: the Terradyne Gurkha. Actually, the Gurkha came...

Nissan is the latest automaker to introduce a video-streaming rearview mirror, which the Japanese automaker is calling an Intelligent Rearview Mirror (I-RVM). We first saw the technology introduced by Cadillac on the 2016 CT6. What it is, essentially, is a traditional rearview mirror with an...

Approach the 2018 Grand Cherokee Trackhawk and few external cues give away that this isn’t a normal Grand Cherokee SRT. The front fog lights are missing to allow more air to feed air-to-oil intercoolers, the quad-tipped exhaust features a shiny black chrome finish, Trackhawk specific wheels...

In the past couple of years, Porsche has redesigned the Cayman and Boxster (adding the 718 designation to each), introduced a twin-turbocharged 911 Carrera, and turned the Panamera from one of the most unattractive cars on the road into one of the best looking. Good. Great. Wonderful. And none of...
