The lone exception is the unavailable compact pickup in the Ford Maverick, which remains on backorder.

]]> Mon, 14 Aug 2023 00:40:25 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/toyota-tacoma-trd-pro-vs-gmc-canyon-at4x/ SUVs have been the best-selling type of vehicle in the U.S. for quite some time now and this trend is being carried over to EVs. The Tesla Model Y has already become the best-selling car in the world, and as electric battery and motor tech advances, more and more affordable models are joining the fray. Not content on being left behind, Chevrolet and Volvo have both revealed entry-level SUVs set to join the market in the 2024 and 2025 models years respectively.

]]> Mon, 07 Aug 2023 14:30:26 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/chevy-equinox-ev-vs-volvo-ex30/ When Toyota unveiled the new Land Cruiser 300 Series back in 2021, the world stopped and paid attention. It was an all-new vehicle built on a new platform with so many new features and changes. A new Land Cruiser doesn’t come often, and they tend to stick around for a long time. Sadly, North America did not get one, but Toyota finally has a solution to this problem.

]]> Sun, 06 Aug 2023 21:30:26 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/toyota-land-cruiser-300-vs-land-cruiser-250/ Toyota has been on a roll lately with the release of a lot of new models in its lineup. Since 2020, the GR performance division has released some of the most exciting road cars starting with the new Supra. Next, they gave us the GR Yaris, 86, and Corolla which are all high-performance versions of their regular cars. Now, they’ve added an SUV to that lineup.

]]> Sun, 06 Aug 2023 10:00:26 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/toyota-land-cruiser-gr-vs-nissan-patrol-nismo/ The Toyota Land Cruiser, long celebrated for its unparalleled quality, durability, and reliability, has evolved over the years. From selling just one model in the U.S. during its debut in the late 1950s to the beloved 40 Series, which dominated the U.S. market for five straight years, the Cruiser's metamorphosis has been nothing short of spectacular.

]]> Thu, 03 Aug 2023 16:01:28 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/how-the-2024-land-cruiser-can-shake-up-the-off-roader-enthusiast-market/ The Nissan Z and the Infiniti Q60 are as identical as cars get as they are contrasting. One is a hard-edged hairy-chested sports car for the young and the young at heart, while the other is a suave, sophisticated GT for a more mature audience.

]]> Wed, 02 Aug 2023 03:45:26 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/infiniti-q60-vs-nissan-z/ It wasn’t long ago that Genesis was merely a model designation within the Hyundai brand. Genesis was the one you wanted if you were interested in Hyundai’s flagship vehicles. In some ways that idea still remains, but Genesis has evolved, to say the least. Early on, the Hyundai Genesis ethos was split between a coupe and a sedan.

]]> Wed, 02 Aug 2023 02:46:25 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/hyundai-vs-genesis/ Mercedes-Benz has had a huge role to play in the innovation and development of the automotive industry. They have been around for more than century and are the number-one brand for luxury, technology, and safety. There are more luxurious brands but they are much more expensive, exclusive, and not as innovative as Mercedes-Benz. But Mercedes decided to go after the exclusive luxury segment with another sub-brand.

]]> Sat, 29 Jul 2023 23:00:27 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/mercedes-vs-maybach/ The joint project between Toyota and Subaru, which birthed the Toyota GR86 and the Subaru BRZ, proved to be a strong collaboration for the two experienced Japanese manufacturers, as they both produced reliable and fast sports cars that won’t bankrupt the average speed enthusiast.

]]> Fri, 28 Jul 2023 19:30:28 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/2024-subaru-brz-ts-vs-2024-toyota-gr86-trueno/ Mazda has been making a good name for itself in the crossover SUV Market since it released the CX-9 back in 2006. The second generation was introduced in 2016 and built upon the success of the first generation. It still offered three-row seating and even more technology and safety features. It was such a good crossover that it was among the finalist for the 2017 Car of the Year award. But Mazda seems to have made an even better version of the CX-9.

]]> Thu, 27 Jul 2023 02:30:26 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/2023-mazda-cx-9-vs-2024-mazda-cx-90/ The Jeep Wrangler is one of the most iconic off-roaders of all time. Its legend owing to the original Willy's dates back all the way through World War II and it has become a household name for those who enjoy hitting trails and traveling uncharted paths. It’s so iconic, in fact, that it has inspired many a copycat. Many automakers trying to capitalize on Jeep’s success have been cropping up with models designed and shaped in a similar style.

]]> Wed, 26 Jul 2023 19:01:24 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/mahindra-roxor-vs-cherry-mini-moke/ When it comes to three-row family SUVs, the 2023 Toyota Highlander and the 2023 Honda Pilot emerge as two popular contenders in the competitive mid-size SUV market. Families seeking spacious interiors, advanced safety features, and reliable performance often find themselves drawn between these two Japanese models. Whereas the Highlander has been one of the best selling models in the class, Honda's latest 4th-gen Pilot is looking for a slice of the pie.

]]> Sun, 23 Jul 2023 21:01:26 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/2023-toyota-highlander-vs-2023-honda-pilot-1/ Mahindra is an automaker not often talked about in the United States. However, over in India and parts of South Asia, it is one of the most popular manufacturers of off-road capable vehicles. Back in the old days, vehicles similar to Mahindra products were looked down upon due to poor quality, less technology, and in many cases, poor knockoff attempts of other famous vehicles.

]]> Thu, 20 Jul 2023 10:05:23 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/jeep-wrangler-vs-mahindra-thar/ Acura was launched in 1986 and is the luxury division of the Honda Motor Company. They were the first luxury division of a Japanese automaker ahead of Lexus and Infiniti. The main goal of the brand was to sell luxury versions of Honda vehicles but mainly outside the Japanese market. They brought Honda’s simplicity and reliability in a premium package that would appeal to luxury car buyers.

]]> Wed, 19 Jul 2023 15:00:19 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/honda-vs-acura/ It is no secret that the American market loves trucks. However, recent world events have driven both the price of vehicles and fuel through the roof. This means that more and more buyers are looking to move out of their huge gas-guzzling truck-bed beasts and into smaller and more sensible vehicles.

]]> Tue, 18 Jul 2023 03:56:22 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/2024-ram-rampage-vs-2023-ford-maverick/ Dodge has been making headlines with its gas-guzzling, big-power muscle cars. Even the Durango full-size SUV has received a Hellcat variant. But the Dodge lineup has been stale for a long time and only making updates to old vehicles that have been in production since 2011. But Dodge has recently introduced an all-new model called the Dodge Hornet. This new vehicle inserts Dodge into the competitive compact crossover segment and aims to introduce a lot of new buyers to the brand.

]]> Sun, 16 Jul 2023 03:30:20 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/2023-dodge-hornet-vs-2023-alfa-romeo-tonale/ The Mercedes-Benz E-Class has been reincarnated as the new baby S-Class, and people are already falling in love with it. The defining themes of the S-Class are engineering, quality, exclusivity, speed, luxury, and luxurious ride quality. The flagship Mercedes S-Class will always have an edge in exclusivity. This perception of S-Class exclusivity in the car world is unbeatable by the E-Class, but when it comes to some areas, the E-Class is arguably equal to or even better than its larger much more expensive sibling.

]]> Fri, 14 Jul 2023 17:35:20 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/mercedes-e-class-vs-s-class/ The Toyota Corolla has been around for a very long time and is a well-known name in the automotive industry. It has been in production for almost six decades and is currently in its twelfth generation. Very few cars have been able to stick around this long and continues to deliver on its promise of being an affordable, dependable, and reliable means of transportation. Steady improvements over the years have ensured it has remained the bestselling car of all time with over 50 million units sold. But there’s a new kid on the block who may not have the Corolla's pedigree but is a worthy rival.

]]> Thu, 13 Jul 2023 17:30:19 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/2023-mazda-3-vs-2023-toyota-corolla/ Everyone is well aware that Lexus vehicles are Toyota derivatives that focus on offering a more luxurious and premium ownership experience. For years, just like their Toyota counterparts, Lexus cars have been praised for their reliability, dependability, attention to detail, and comfort.

]]> Wed, 12 Jul 2023 13:30:19 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/toyota-vs-lexus/ Lexus has been leading the charge in the affordable and reliable Luxury segment for over three decades with the release of the phenomenal Lexus LS. The brand has set itself to be the go-to luxury option outside its German rivals. Five generations later, and the Lexus LS has built a solid reputation for itself. But in that time, technology and features on flagship luxury cars have improved and the LS is no longer the sole alternative in this space.

]]> Mon, 10 Jul 2023 21:15:18 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/genesis-g90-vs-lexus-ls/ By July 2023, we find ourselves without the new Ford GT500, the brand's top production Mustang. This is because Ford anticipates much weaker sales for the pony car this year, due to the sixth generation's end, and the upcoming 2024 S650. Within this seventh generation 'stang, we find the top dog Dark Horse, brought to life by a 5.0 liter V-8 that will be the most powerful Coyote engine ever. We're talking about a car with a MagneRide suspension, that puts out 500 horsepower, and 418 pound-feet of torque.

]]> Mon, 10 Jul 2023 17:00:18 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/ford-mustang-shelby-2014-gt500-vs-2022-gt500/ Mazda, once a name associated with affordable transport, is redefining itself in the realm of luxury. While staying true to its core value of delivering driving joy, Mazda has upped the ante by incorporating plush elegance into its equation. Enter the CX-90, Mazda's flagship model, an embodiment of this brand transformation. Promising an exciting fusion of finesse, comfort, and power, the CX-90 aims to ruffle the feathers of established luxury brands like Lexus.

]]> Sat, 08 Jul 2023 12:00:19 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/2024-mazda-cx-90-vs-2023-lexus-gx/ Chevrolet is preparing two new electric SUVs for the 2024 model year as a replacement for the current Bolt EV and EUV, which are soon to be retired indefinitely. One of the new models – the Equinox EV – is entering a segment of the EV market that is offering lots of competition. One of these competitors is the Hyundai Kona EV, which also just went through a major update. But, when put on paper one next to the other, which of the two compact electric SUVs is better? Let’s try to find out!

]]> Thu, 06 Jul 2023 12:00:19 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/chevy-equinox-ev-vs-hyundai-kona-electric/ Electric vehicles' increasing prominence has led automakers worldwide to ratchet up their commitment toward sustainable transportation options. Two such groundbreaking models are the Kia EV6 and Chevy Blazer EV widely recognized as among the most innovative cars in the market today. The Kia EV6 is a brilliantly decked-out crossover SUV with a strikingly sleek design that highlights its extraordinary capabilities better: a range of up to 310 miles on a single full charge in the long-range mode which is impressive by any measure. Its battery is highly efficient and allows for speedy recharging delivering about 80 percent power in very little time at maximum output levels.

]]> Sun, 02 Jul 2023 14:00:20 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/kia-ev6-vs-chevy-blazer-ev/ First introduced in 2022, Chevrolet is getting ready to introduce its all-electric version of the Silverado, the Silverado EV into the market. Alternatively, GMC is all set to release its all-electric version of the GMC Sierra, the Sierra EV. Both of these electric trucks come with stellar features and performance specs. To begin with, both of these electric trucks offer an impressive driving range. First off, the GMC Sierra EV can go up to 400 miles on a full charge, while the Chevrolet Silverado EV can go nearly 450 miles on a single charge. Additionally, they also come with batteries that are strong enough to power your house for a total of 21 days, and a range of other spectacular features. But if you want to choose the best possible all-electric truck for you, it’s the small details that matter, while both of these electric trucks are unique in their own way, you need to choose the one that suits your needs the best. Here are a few points which you can go through to help make your decision.

]]> Sat, 01 Jul 2023 20:00:19 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/chevrolet-silverado-ev-vs-gmc-sierra-ev/ Acura is the premium and mid-luxury marque of the Honda brand. As such, Acura has always been the more luxurious version when compared to big brother Honda. Having produced iconic cars liek the NSX and Integra, Acura is also no stranger to performance. In 1997, the Integra Type R was born and stayed in production sold until 2001, where "R" signifies racing. Speaking of this designation, the Civic Type R was nowhere to be found on U.S. soil, having not been made available until 2017.

]]> Wed, 28 Jun 2023 14:31:20 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/acura-integra-type-s-vs-honda-civic-type-r/ Hyundai revealed the Ioniq 5 EV in 2021 and noted that it will be followed up by the Ioniq 6, which was released for sale in March 2023, and the Ioniq 7, which is yet to come. Going in chronological order, the automaker has now taken the wraps off the latest EV from its Ioniq sub-brand called the Ioniq 6. It is essentially the sedan version of the Ioniq 5 and is aimed at the Tesla Model 3. It shares a lot of components with the Ioniq 5, with some additions that make the car more of a sedan than a crossover. The automaker has been showcasing its latest EV to get the public all hyped up before the company started putting it on the market for sale. Now that it has arrived, the details of the Hyundai Ioniq 6 are more transparent, so a detailed comparison can be conducted between the Ioniq 5 and the Ioniq 6. So, with that in mind, here’s everything you need to know about the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 and how it compares to the Ioniq 5.

]]> Sun, 18 Jun 2023 22:00:20 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/cars/guides/comparison-hyundai-ioniq-5-vs-hyundai-ioniq-6/ The electric vehicle market is heating up, and almost every segment now has a long lineup of vehicles vying for the top spot. Tesla is still king in sales, but the market landscape is evolving rapidly as others catch up and Tesla faces serious competition from rivals that offer similar, and sometimes better, specs. Volvo, known for its reliable and luxurious vehicles, just unveiled the EX30 SUV, and it has been making some amazing impressions. First introduced in 2020, the Model Y has been the best-selling EV in the U.S. ever since and has exceeded all expectations. The Model Y starts at around $47,740 and offers between 384 and 456 horsepower thanks to its two electric motors. It is offered in three different trims and the Long Range one is capable of providing 330 miles of driving range on a single charge. Tesla has pioneered mass-market EVs and this is reflected in the Model Y's dominance of the sales charts. For its part, Volvo is launching the EX30 SUV as its cheapest-ever EV, and if the spec sheet is something to go by, the Model Y may be about to receive a different kind of competition.

]]> Sun, 18 Jun 2023 14:00:21 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/volvo-ex30-vs-tesla-model-y/ Mazda is raising the stakes in the compact SUV segment with its new CX-50, but how does it stack up against the popular CX-5? It appears to be a sibling rivalry within the Mazda family with the advent of the CX-50, seen as a direct competitor to the much-loved CX-5. However, Mazda quickly silenced the rumors, asserting the firm positioning of both models in its portfolio.

]]> Sat, 17 Jun 2023 23:00:21 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/2023-mazda-cx-5-vs-2023-mazda-cx-50/ Two revolutionary electric vehicles on the market today remain the Tesla Model Y and the Polestar 2. The advanced technology platforms on which both of these EVs are built are designed to provide efficiency, superior performance, and reliability. For example, the practicality and versatility of an SUV are combined with the best features of Tesla's Model 3 sedan to produce the standout Model Y. A powerful electric drivetrain that provides not only excellent driving range but quick acceleration is merged with a sleek and modern design, that includes a spacious and functional interior. On the other hand, the Polestar 2 is a luxury electric fastback born to Volvo's spin-off brand, Polestar. A suite of advanced features and technologies is part of its hallmarks together with a refined and luxurious interior (that keeps with its roots) and a sleek and modern design. This makes it a standout entry into the advanced and capable electric vehicles market today. With these two vehicles, their parent companies have set their focus on innovation and forward-thinking design in a bid to set them apart from their competitors. The advanced tech platforms on which they're built feature cutting-edge technology like advanced driver assistance systems, regenerative braking, and more.

]]> Sat, 17 Jun 2023 14:00:20 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/polestar-2-vs-tesla-model-y/ New trucks are better than ever before. The insane competition amongst manufacturers leads to trucks that are getting increasingly more competitive. Two of the latest and greatest additions to the market include the Tacoma TRD Pro and the Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Bison. Both these trucks compete within the same mid-sized desert bashing and off-roading niche. Therefore, it would only make sense to put them head-to-head.

]]> Tue, 13 Jun 2023 01:00:19 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/toyota-tacoma-trd-pro-vs-chevrolet-colorado-zr2-bison/ It is no secret that the world has fallen in love with crossovers & SUVs. No matter where you go, the roads are almost guaranteed to be filled with them. From small to big, off-roady or sporty, the SUV has taken every possible form. But is it really the car to have?

]]> Sun, 11 Jun 2023 03:05:20 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/is-a-three-row-suv-really-better-than-a-minivan/ A zero-emission solution to traveling, electric vehicles have marked a future of sustainable living. Many big automakers, such as Nissan, General Motors, Hyundai, Mercedes-Benz, Chevrolet, and Maserati, have heavily contributed to the refinement of electric vehicles in the United States market. Each year, more and more electric vehicles are launched. In just 2022, the registration of electric vehicles went up by 57-percent compared to 2021, with 750,000 units registered in the United States. It's no surprise that the United States electric vehicle market is projected to capture 45-percent of the automobile industry by 2035. Luxury car brands are also spearheading the movement with their expansive electric lineup consisting of electric SUVs and sedans. One such brand is Chevrolet, which offers the highly popular Chevrolet Bolt twins and the Chevrolet Equinox EV. With a heavy influx of different electric vehicles coming in from the same brand, it can often become confusing for buyers to choose the best-suited EV for them, thus here is a comparison of both of Chevrolet's top EVs.

]]> Fri, 09 Jun 2023 20:00:19 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/chevrolet-bolt-euv-vs-chevrolet-equinox-ev/ We certainly embrace change; however, we also believe that in some instances, the old-school way is the way to go. This also seems to be the vision of Sir Jim Radcliffe – the man behind the incredibly appealing and nostalgic Ineos Grenadier.

]]> Wed, 07 Jun 2023 13:00:19 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/2023-ineos-grenadier-vs-2023-land-rover-defender-110/ The battle between luxury mid-size executive sedans is an exciting one, with the latest G60 BMW 5 Series and W214 Mercedes-Benz E-Class facing off. Both German models are titans in the industry, known for their exceptional performance, elegance, and state-of-the-art technology. But which one will come out on top?

]]> Sun, 04 Jun 2023 03:30:19 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/bmw-5-series-vs-mercedes-benz-e-class/ While the automotive landscape is now dominated by Crossovers and SUVs, you must not forget the venerable midsize sedans that dominated the market not too long ago. Even though this segment has shrunk considerably over the years, automakers haven’t given up as a number of great contenders remain ever present in this segment.

]]> Sun, 04 Jun 2023 02:00:19 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/mid-size-sedans-toyota-camry-honda-accord-hyundai-sonata/ Driving a sports car every day has always been a dream for many of us gear heads – that thrill of acceleration, the roar of the engine, and the control you experience on the road make it an unforgettable experience. The Porsche 911 has been the go-to car for those who crave practicality but won't sacrifice performance.

]]> Thu, 01 Jun 2023 17:30:19 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/chevrolet-corvette-c8-vs-porsche-911-practical-everyday-sportscar/ It comes as no surprise that Toyota is an automaker that is renowned for manufacturing and producing some of the most reliable and durable products, most notably SUVs. Amidst its lengthy vehicle line-up, two of Toyota’s SUVs that have left a significant mark on the market are the Corolla Cross and the RAV4.

]]> Tue, 30 May 2023 19:00:19 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/toyota-corolla-cross-vs-rav4/ The Tesla Model Y and the Toyota RAV4 Prime are two of the most popular crossover vehicles and they both offer special benefits and features. The standout difference between these two vehicles is what powers them. The RAV4 Prime is powered by a hybrid system where an electric motor is mated with a gasoline engine. This offers both versatility and fuel efficiency. On the other hand, the Tesla Model Y is a battery-electric vehicle that provides quick acceleration and a smooth ride. One other main difference is the range. The Model Y has an all-electric range of 330 miles from its battery pack, while the RAV4 Prime has an all-electric range of just 42 miles from its battery pack. Consumers who require longer travel distances on a single charge may have their purchasing decisions affected by this difference. The RAV4 Prime is a hybrid vehicle and the gas tank combined with its battery range can take it up to a total of 600 miles to the Tesla's 330 miles. Both the plug-in hybrid Toyota RAV4 Prime and the all-electric Tesla Model Y offer unique advantages. The Model Y stands out as a powerhouse among electric vehicles with its impressive performance and storage, while the RAV4 Prime's hybrid powertrain makes it a more practical as well as versatile option.

]]> Tue, 30 May 2023 12:01:19 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/toyota-rav4-prime-vs-tesla-model-y/ The transition toward electric vehicles has sparked a revolution, and it has undoubtedly made its way into the highly competitive world of pickup trucks. In particular, there are two prominent contenders: the Rivian R1T and the Chevy Silverado EV. While the Rivian R1T has already established its presence in the market for a couple of years, the Chevy Silverado EV is slated to hit the roads in 2024 (or in the fall of 2023). As a result, certain aspects of the comparison may be limited, given the Silverado's forthcoming release. Nevertheless, both the Rivian R1T and the Chevy Silverado EV represent formidable players in the electric truck segment, vying for market share alongside the likes of the Ford Lightning and other competitors.

]]> Fri, 26 May 2023 12:01:18 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/rivian-r1t-vs-chevy-silverado-ev/ Rivian's appearance on the market caused an earthquake for the entire industry, similar (although of lesser magnitude) to the one generated by Tesla at the time when Elon Musk decided to go out and compete. It is a start-up with an impressive capacity for productive and technological innovation that constantly surprises because of the quality of its vehicles. In fact, Rivian was the first company to produce an electric pickup truck, the R1T, which was later joined by its sister, the R1S. These are exceptional vehicles, very similar in many ways, but obviously not identical. Some differences can be crucial depending on the use you want to make of them. Both are of the highest quality, performance, and design, and that is why Rivian leads several rankings in this regard, but some important differences can be highlighted.

]]> Tue, 23 May 2023 15:00:20 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/rivian-r1t-vs-rivian-r1s/ There was a time when if you wanted an electric car, Tesla was pretty much your only option. Times have changed, and now we have an electric car coming out every day, so EVs like the Tesla Model Y are getting more and more competitors. Plus, consumers have learned that Tesla cars are not that reliable, they have a lot of build issues and technical problems, and they ultimately look away. Some of them are even willing to spend a little bit more just to get something a little bit more decent. Such an alternative for the Model Y comes from Cadillac. The Cadillac Lyriq has everything from more power to a more luxurious cabin, and a better level of equipment. It is true that it is a little bit more expensive, but you get a lot more for the money. The only point the Model Y still gets is the range – as everybody knows it is a little bit harder to beat Tesla in that regard. Here’s how the two models stack against each other.

]]> Mon, 22 May 2023 12:01:20 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/cadillac-lyriq-vs-tesla-model-y/ Launched back in 2019, the Tesla Model Y has been a model without competition for quite a while. But things have changed lately, and we get to see more and more compact luxury electric crossovers every day. One of these new models is the 2024 Blazer EV, a model that we can argue is superior in many ways to Model Y, ultimately making it a better buy. There are of course many ways in which the Model Y still remains superior, but are those enough reasons to buy it instead of the Chevrolet Blazer EV?

]]> Sun, 21 May 2023 14:00:20 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/chevy-blazer-ev-vs-tesla-model-y/ Founded in the 1900s, Toyota and Hyundai have marked the automobile industry throughout the United States with their massive footprints. Rivaling one another in all spheres of the automobile industry, the two massive companies are now going head-to-head in the electric vehicle market. With its first hybrid vehicle, the Toyota Prius which was launched in 1997, Toyota was able to capitalize on a market relatively untapped. It seems that the market responded quite well as Toyota has mass-produced plug-in hybrid vehicles ever since.

]]> Sat, 20 May 2023 18:00:20 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/toyota-rav4-prime-vs-hyundai-tucson-plug-in-hybrid/ German automakers are known for delivering expertly engineered, finely tuned, luxury vehicles. This has almost forever been the case. So, when it comes to luxury crossovers, it’s no surprise that some of the heaviest hitters in the class are from Germany.

]]> Fri, 19 May 2023 20:00:21 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/audi-q5-vs-bmw-x3-vs-mercedes-glc-the-best-german-compact-luxury-crossover-in-2023/ A new era - the electric vehicle age has dawned upon us. Tesla, Ford, Volkswagen, and Hyundai are just a few of the mammoths of the electric vehicle industry that have produced and delivered top-rated electric vehicles on the market today. With such a tremendous influx of giants within the automobile industry flocking to manufacture electric vehicles, you’re bound to find various types of EVs on the road. What’s more, is that the demand for zero-emission vehicles is rising at an exponential level so much so that the electric vehicle market is taking the spotlight from the overall automobile industry in the United States.

]]> Wed, 17 May 2023 12:00:18 GMT https://www.topspeed.com/hummer-ev-suv-vs-rivian-r1s/ The MDX nameplate has been around for more than two decades and is one of the market's most well-known luxury SUVs and for good reason. Over the years, the Acura MDX has proven to be a reliable vehicle that can haul families in style. However, many automakers are stepping up the competition with more SUVs in their lineup; the most recent one being the Mazda CX-90, which debuted earlier this year.
