SUVs : Car Reviews And News

I’m a big Jeep Wrangler fan. The things even a basic one can do off-road are impressive. The long running JK model is now being phased out in favor of the new and even better JL Wrangler.

If you have been looking for an SUV that can seat up to eight people, and won’t break the bank, you might want to hop over to your local Honda dealership. Honda has announced pricing for its refreshed 2019 Pilot, and that it’s now on lots ready to buy.

Rezvani showed off its over-the-top Tank extreme SUV for the first time last October. Now, the company is back with a meaner looking version of that custom-built SUV called the Tank Military Edition. This new model is designed for dignitaries and other folks needing a little extra protection from potential foes.

If you look around at the numerous sport utility vehicles on the market, their marketing campaigns are often associated with an adventurous lifestyle. While most SUV owners will never leave the paved roads of their cities and suburbs, most will tell you they just like knowing their vehicle COULD go off-road in the event of a zombie apocalypse. 

If you liked that Icon 1965 Kaiser-Jeep Wagoneer back in May, you will really like what the pro resto-modders Icon have cooked up now. The boutique automaker has a new ride called the Icon Old School BR.

Earlier this year, I reviewed the 2018 Audi Q5. I wasn’t used to Audi SUVs as I generally get behind the wheel of their sedans (and thoroughly enjoy myself). But I did enjoy my time in the redesigned Q5 as well.

We’ve already talked about the overall record that VW set with their I.D. R Pikes Peak racer. The other heavily publicized ride racing at Pikes Peak was from VW’s sister company, Bentley, and their Bentayga SUV.

Subaru has confirmed the pricing on the 2019 Crosstrek line, and it’s just barely more expensive than the outgoing version. The base model  increased in price by $100 for 2019, and startsat $22,870 including the destination charge and a 6-speed manual.

Tesla, there’s a killer cat about to pounce and a stomp on your tail, and it’s called the Jaguar I-PACE. The Coventry car builder’s first ever pure-electric ride is a fantastic entry into the fledgling luxury EV space, offering plentiful power, sports car handling, cabin comfort, and tech that’s at the top of its game.

Bentley has announced that its Bentayga SUV is ready to take on Pikes Peak this weekend, looking to smash the SUV record in the event. Since the vehicle is entered in the production class, only minimal changes were allowed.

The first Mitsubishi that I ever came into close contact with was my dad’s Colt hatchback. Rebadged as a Dodge, the five-door was a daily-driven delight. With a manual gearbox, stellar fuel economy, room aplenty for baby seats, and nary a mechanical issue to be seen over multiple years.

In the immortal words of Beavis & Butthead… Boyoyoying! Some lucky rich dude with actual taste commissioned Jonathan Ward’s Icon 4×4 to build him a stunning 1965 Kaiser-Jeep Wagoneer that looks stock, but is very far from that.

In preparation for this year’s Overland Expo WEST, Nissan is showing off an exceptionally well kitted-out custom of its already hefty Armada full-size SUV, which we recently reviewed. This very special vehicle was designed based on the wishes of Nissan Trucks‘ social media followers, who provided input on what the design should include, and how it should be wrapped.

It’s no secret that demand for SUVs is higher than it’s ever been, and cars here in the US are passé. But this doesn’t mean that all SUVs are popular. These days, the smaller, sleeker, sometimes cutesy SUVs and crossovers are all the trend.

All around the US, the police and highway patrol agencies favor Ford Explorers for their SUVs and Dodge Chargers for their patrol cars. But you’ll soon need to start checking your rear-view mirrors for a hopped-up police version of the 2018 Dodge Durango called the Durango Pursuit.
