To celebrate 50 years since the launch of the first GT-R, Nissan has released a GT-R 50th Anniversary Edition package. The package offers three “heritage” exterior colour schemes – blue with white stripes, pearl white with red stripes and silver with white stripes. The colours are inspired from the KPGC10-based race cars. The “Bayside Blue” is the first time Nissan is offering the famous blue shade from the R34 Skyline GT-R model on the R35.
The Kia Cadenza, or the K7 as known in South Korea, has recently gone through a mid-life facelift for the 2020 model year.
As comparison tests go, this isn’t the most exciting, but it is probably relevant to a whole lot more people than pitting Porsches and Ferraris against McLarens and Lamborghinis yet again (spoiler alert: Porsches and Ferraris are always better). What we have here today are the newest segment of vehicles to sprout from the SUV revolution — the sub-compact crossovers. Not quite SUVs, but not really cars either, the sub-compact crossover gives owners the feeling of driving an SUV while keeping ownership costs within car-like levels. The newest of the bunch is the Honda HR-V, going up against the immensely-successful Nissan Kicks.
Crossover’s continue to flood the automotive market and Kia has released yet another one. The 2020 Kia Seltos is a compact SUV destined for some specific markets.
The month of May 2019 has been eventful. Familiar recalls making a comeback and new ones are cropping up.
The all-new 2020 Toyota Corolla has been revealed in the UAE, Saudi Arabia and other GCC countries. A new hybrid engine has joined the line-up. It is built on the Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA) platform, giving it a lower centre of gravity, 60% more rigid body shell and multi-link suspension which Toyota claims improves handling and stability.
The all-new Kia Telluride is the long-awaited replacement for the Mohave, and it appears to be almost as good as everyone hoped it would be.
We briefly drove the 2019 Kia Cerato at the Dubai Autodrome in the UAE. Here’s a quick review of the Korean carmaker’s latest compact sedan.
News in April 2019 includes BMW who is preparing to recall the models that they have already recalled once before.
Kia is no stranger in the full-size SUV 7-seater market, having already had the Mohave in their lineup for the past decade. However, despite being forcefully kept on life-support, the Mohave never really caught on with the general public as their other more-modern models have. Hoping to change that, Kia has now introduced an all-new model, the Telluride. We were invited to a media launch event in Dubai to try it out on a pre-determined route.
