The Toyota Yaris has grown into quite a popular name over the past two decades. The plucky little sub-compact family consisted of only the sedan and the hatchback. But now, Toyota has added a new member for 2021 to cater to the ever-growing SUV craze, called the Toyota Yaris Cross.
The Toyota Hilux is a pickup that has made its name around the world for being an extremely dependable and bulletproof workhorse. In the Middle East, the Hilux continues to be a hot favorite among small-business buyers, and Toyota has done timely updates to keep it that way, even after switching production to Thailand. Since the current model was launched in 2016, a facelift is due to arrive in late-2020. But drivers won’t have to wait that long as the 2021 Toyota Hilux might already have been leaked.
The full-size luxury coupe flashes a blingy design that has always made it stand out, despite its relatively-lacklustre performance credentials compared to German rivals. So, when the time has come to give it a refresh for the 2021 model year, Lexus has chosen to confine the changes to a few new colour options, wheel options, suspension tweaks and slightly less bulk to carry around.
Our world is in turmoil as the coronavirus pandemic has taken hold of our planet. That has drastically dropped sales of cars around the world. But there has been no decrease in the number of recalls that were announced in the past month. Here are the global recalls for March 2020.
With the 2020 New York Motor Show postponed to August due to the coronavirus pandemic, the launch of the facelifted 2021 Honda Odyssey minivan will be delayed. But the official online reveal shows minimal changes to the Odyssey for the new model year.

Let’s not beat around the bush. Car sales have crashed in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. There’s no avoiding its effects, as stock markets, retail and travel have also been murdered by the unprecedented COVID-19 crisis, with no sign of relief any time soon and people are losing their jobs in these and others sectors. If you still feel like buying a car, there are some options, but on the whole, there probably won’t be any new cars to buy soon as several carmakers are switching focus for the time being.
In these unprecedented times, what’s a carmaker to do when auto shows are cancelled and public spectacles are banned? Due to the coronavirus pandemic, Hyundai decided to hold the global reveal of the 2021 Genesis G80 on the internet. The show must go on, after all.
Hyundai has been on a launch spree lately with cars like the 2020 Sonata and a bunch of crossovers making their way into the lineup. Now, Hyundai has flicked the covers off the 2021 Hyundai Elantra sedan. In a very crowded segment filled with Japanese giants like the Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic etc, the 2021 Hyundai Elantra hopes to gain some attention as it brings a combination of edgy styling, latest technology and a hybrid powertrain.
The Honda S2000 is in a good place when it comes to collectible classics. Aside from the car’s obvious allure, it’s old enough to be rare and interesting, yet new enough to not have to panic when spare parts are needed. The local dealer still offers every conceivable part for the car, which is great for a bespoke roadster that’s been out of production since 2009.
