SUVs : Car News And Reviews

We’ve talked about the slick Kia Telluride SUV a few times now. The Telluride was one of the coolest cars shown in Super Bowl commercials and is a large SUV that has three rows of seating.

Bentley has announced its new Bentayga Speed SUV, being sure to let us know that it is the fastest SUV in the world. It’s a scant 0.5 mph faster than the Lamborghini Urus (we rounded the Urus’ top speed up, it’s 189.5

A normal Cadillac Escalade ESV is already an expensive and luxurious ride. The well-heeled executive or diplomat out there that wants even more luxury and security can opt for the latest ride from Inkas. The customized vehicle is the 2019 Cadillac Escalade “Chairman.”

I recently had the opportunity to drive the 2019 Toyota RAV4, and was extremely impressed with the improvements Toyota has made in overall ride quality, versatility, and capability for its popular daily driver. And while the RAV4 is already better than one might expect off the tarmac, Toyota wants us to know it can do even more with the announcement of a new TRD Off-Road trim for the 2020 model year. Based on the RAV4 Adventure grade, with its 8.6″

Land Rover’s Range Rover Evoque has always been a great looking vehicle. As we head into the 2020 model year, the sharp-dressed crossover continues to look better than ever, and has all kinds of refinements. We already know about some of the exciting plans for the new model, such as a new 48V hybrid option, which should put a little extra pep in the Evoque’s step.

The only two car commercials I recall from the Super Bowl over the weekend were for the Toyota Supra, a car I’m not particularly attracted to, and the Kia Telluride. It took most of the Telluride commercial to figure out it was for a Kia, but the full-size SUV looks fantastic. I left wondering if it would be a very expensive car for Kia to try and push into the premium segment.

Let’s face it, if you buy a Jeep Wrangler, take it off road, and destroy it, you are out somewhere in the mid-$50,000 range at most. If you buy a Lamborghini Urus and then destroy it offroad, you are out at least $200,000 for starters.

There are some vehicles that you know will be awesome off-road without having to worry. Rides like the Jeep Wrangler and Toyota Land Cruiser are two that come to mind. Toyota has a 2020 Land Cruiser Heritage Edition it will be debuting at the 2019 Chicago Auto Show to celebrate 60 years of the vehicle.

The Ford Explorer was the vehicle that really kicked off America’s fascination with SUVs. First released back in 1990, the Explorer has been wildly successful throughout its five generations, having transformed from a rugged, truck-based vehicle, to a more modern and premium daily driver that still retains the capabilities of the original.

Suzuki is no more in the States – its line of cheap, boring cars didn’t fare well here. That wasn’t the case way back in the day when the tiny little Samurai SUV was on the market.

Reviewing a 2018 vehicle in the closing hours of the year might seem odd, but the newly redesigned 2018 and 2019 Ford Expedition are basically identical, so I figured my thoughts might still prove useful for those SUV shopping for the new year.

It’s been more than 20 years since you could buy a new Land Rover Defender in the US or Canada. Government regulations had kept the vehicles off the markets here for a while, so these rugged off-roaders have been pretty elusive for us here.

I am a big Jeep Wrangler fan, but I really wish they offered a V8 option. As it is now only a V6 is available. If you want a V8 in your Wrangler, you have to go aftermarket.

When it comes to hopping up rides, Jeep fans are among some of the most voracious consumers of stuff. There’s a massive number of aftermarket companies making accessories for the Wrangler, and the Jeep Gladiator will undoubtedly have its share of add-ons as well.

After all the speculation and leaks, the 2020 Jeep Gladiator truck got official this week at the 2018 LA Auto Show. The 218-inch long Gladiator looks like a 4-door Wrangler with a 5-foot bed tacked onto its back.
