A while ago, Mazda had released a teaser image of a new compact crossover which everybody speculated to be a new generation of the CX-3. But to everybody’s surprise, Mazda uncovered a completely new global crossover named Mazda CX-30 to sit between the CX-3 and CX-5 in their lineup.
“Sensuous Sportiness”. That’s the name of the new design language Hyundai debuts with the reveal of the all-new eighth-generation 2020 Hyundai Sonata at the 2019 Geneva Motor Show. This new design gives the Sonata a near four-door coupe look. But has it taken away the practicality of the sedan?
Walking into a new model year, the 2020 Kia Sportage arrives with subtle updates inside out.
The past year has been major when it comes to midsize sedans — if you can call that niche major any more. All-new versions of the Toyota Camry and the Honda Accord debuted in 2018, and their sales have already stagnated as consumers increasingly gravitate toward crossovers. Meanwhile, Ford and GM announced plans to kill off their sedan models in some markets entirely. That means the segment, shrinking or otherwise, will continue to be dominated by the Japanese, especially now that Nissan has debuted their all-new Altima.
Toyota introduced the all-new Hiace in the Philippines recently. Featuring a completely new design, the latest model of the commercial van is said to be more comfortable and safer than the previous generation.
The Toyota Land Cruiser has been around for the last 60 years. During these years, Toyota’s SUV garnered a bulletproof reputation, unlike any other SUV, especially in the Middle East.

The Nissan GT-R50 by Italdesign made its Middle East debut at the Dubai Autodrome, as part of a global tour.
We have seen this before. Kia, at the New York Fashion Week last year, introduced their largest SUV, the Telluride followed by a few concepts at SEMA later. But these machines were completely tricked out. Here is the unmodified version of the Korean SUV in all its original glory.
With the rise of crossovers dominating over every other automotive niche, there was a glaring hole in Honda’s local line-up that cars like the Nissan Kicks, the Renault Duster and the Ford Ecosport have been playing for the past few years. That gap has now been filled with the introduction of the Honda HR-V, reviving a nameplate that’s been dormant here since the turn of the millennium.
