SUVs : Car News And Reviews

Zero Labs has made a name for itself taking Classic Ford Broncos and turning them into electric vehicles. The company is back again, and this time it’s taking an icon of the British off-road scene and making it battery-powered.

Fans of the Toyota 4Runner can get a new outdoorsy edition of the SUV called the Trail Special Edition. The vehicle is based on the SR5 grade and can be purchased in either rear-wheel or four-wheel drive.

Ford opened the reservation banks for the all-new 2021 Bronco earlier this month on the same day the vehicle was revealed. Reservations cost just $100 and poured in. While Ford has never been clear on exactly how many reservations it took, the automaker has now confirmed with Car & Driver that anyone who reserves a Bronco in two or four-door versions at this point will likely have to wait until the middle of 2022 for delivery.

If one statement holds true in the auto industry, it’s that adding the word “Sport” to a vehicle doesn’t make it a sporty vehicle. Case in point: The 2020 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport. Pitched as a smaller, sportier sibling to the three-row VW Atlas, this crossover-style SUV still feels big, heavy, and clunky, even if it does look a little more sporty than its bigger brother.

Ford Performance has unveiled a one-of-a-kind creation, inspired by the new Mustang Mach-E. Dubbed the “Mach-E 1400,” the number in its name points to the insane amount of horsepower that its electric propulsion system produces. The car’s powertrain uses seven electric motors, and an ultra-high-performance battery.

Some of the most important vehicles that Ford has unveiled in recent memory are the new 2021 Bronco and Bronco Sport. Both SUVs are aimed at the off-road crowd who wants to get out and have some adventures.

We’ve got some bad news for 2021 Ford Bronco fans who hoped to option the sweet Sasquatch package along with a manual transmission. It has been confirmed that the Sasquatch option is only available with the 10-speed automatic transmission, no matter which engine you select.

One of the more interesting things to happen to the Jeep Wrangler in recent memory was the addition of a diesel engine option. Since the Gladiator pickup debuted, the only available engine has been the gas V6, but an EcoDiesel option is coming to the truck as well.

After years of anticipation, Ford has officially taken wraps off of the new 2021 Bronco, and it looks fantastic. The new SUV manages to capture the spirit of the classic, boxy Bronco, while embracing modern technology and demands for versatility.

There’s an entire customization market focusing on cramming a V8 engine inside the iconic Jeep Wrangler. Jeep hasn’t officially put a V8 under the hood of its classic off-road vehicle since 1981, when the CJ featured a V8 that made a whopping 125 hp.

When Chevy first announced that the new Trailblazer would be a small crossover rather than a mid-size SUV, die-hard fans of the original were up in arms. And while the new Trailblazer might not have the heft of its namesake, it’s a very good vehicle in its own right, and a much better representation of what people look for in a car today.

2021 is going to be an important year for the Jeep Wrangler as Ford rolls out its all-new Bronco competitor. Another key change to the Jeep Wrangler family will be the addition of their upcoming 4xe electrified model.

Ford announced a few days ago that it would be officially unveiling the new 2021 Bronco family at 8pm EDT on July 13. The vehicles will go up for reservation the same day with a $100 refundable deposit.

If there are two underlying things I can say about every single Mazda you can buy today, it’s that they all have a great, consistent design language, and they’re all fun to drive. Now, not a single one is a horsepower beast, but they’re all engaging, with a good connection between the driver and the vehicle.

Car guys and gals looking for something that can haul the family and tear up the dragstrip don’t have a lot of choices. Of course, Dodge makes the Charger, but the sedan isn’t comfortable for more than four people, and it doesn’t have that much cargo capacity.
