2021 Toyota Camry XSE Hybrid First Test

By Nick Yekikian – MotorTrend When we tested the 2020 Toyota Camry TRD, we came away confused. Its exhaust sounded great, but it rode harshly and was missing key amenities from higher Camry trims. Frankly, it betrayed the Camry’s core mission of being a usable, easily approachable daily driver, and it underdelivered onContinue Reading

2021 Land Rover Defender 90

By Angus MacKenzie – MotorTrend Less is more. Well, maybe. In the case of the 2021 Land Rover Defender 90, less is most definitely less—17.1 inches less, to be precise.

2021 BMW 4 Series

By Mark Rechtin – MotorTrend There is a well-traveled rumor that the 2021 BMW 4 Series exterior design team has been reassigned to styling door handles and seat belt mountings for the rest of their careers. OK, maybe that’s fake news. But it does prove that Germans have a sense of humor.Continue Reading

2021 Honda Accord Hybrid

By Miguel Cortina – MotorTrend We are big fans of more power and less gas. In theory, that’s what the 2021 Honda Accord Hybrid delivers—more horsepower and better fuel economy than the Accord sedan equipped with its non-hybrid entry-level turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine. And when the only compromise between the two is an extraContinue Reading

2021 Genesis G80

Genesis has nailed certain aspects while leaving us cold in others. The most basic compliment we can pay the G80 isContinue Reading

Lexus IS vs Acura TLX

By Jeff Perez – Motor1 Lexus and Acura bring out the big guns in their battle for mid-range supremacy. Let’s be honest: The Germans still dominate the compact luxury segment.
