2025 BMW X3 (G45) REVEALED.

Image
  The German car manufacturer, BMW, has taken the covers off the fourth generation of their X3 Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) for the 2025 model year. Yes, BMW somehow calls all their SUVs "SAVs" unlike most other manufacturers. The newcomer hosts a lot of intensive changes, both in the interior and on the exterior.  First off, from the front, the new X3 features entirely new headlights hosting a new style for the daytime running lights which divert from the usual BMW "angel lights" that have gradually changed over the years. These new ones are designed to a double "L" shape with two in each light cluster. The lights themselves are adaptive LEDs with matrix high beams which as we know by the matrix light technology, are supposed to avoid dazzling oncoming drivers by blanking out part of their beam. In between those headlights is the ever-increasing in size, BMW kidney grille. It has gotten so big compared to the predecessor that even BWM themselves describe...

THE ALL-NEW MERCEDES-BENZ CLE COUPE AND CABRIOLET.

Image
Welcome the new CLE Coupe & Cabriolet model from Mercedes. Mercedes-Benz has finally been unveiled the long awaited CLE Coupe for the 2024 model year and it arrives in style with a load of technology, as one would have expected. The new luxury Coupe bridges the gap left by the, now discontinued, Mercedes-Benz C-Class and E-Class Coupes and Cabriolets from their previous generations, i.e. the W205 and W213 generations. That can also give you an idea of the car's size but in numbers that is: -4.9m in length -1.8m in width -1.4m in height The CLE features a shark nose-like design evident by the forward leaning front section like most of the Mercedes cars of late. Looked at carefully, the front end design is very similar to that of the brand's CLA Coupe. On to the sides, the Coupe retains a design very similar to that of the W205 (C205) C-Class Coupe more especially on the c-pillars. At the rear, the design is a new one, the CLE Coupe features taillights similar to those found ...

SUBARU WRX tS SEDAN REVIEW

Image
The Subaru WRX is one of the most popular compact sedans that have been around for a long time now, the first generation made its debut in 1993. Fast forward to 2021, the Japanese automaker released the latest version of the WRX sedan for he 2022 model year and, it wasn't exactly well received like the older generation WRX models. The car caused quite a lot of controversy across the internet mainly because of its design and the lack of a considerable power increase over its predecessor.  Now, having seen the car in person, up close, I can confidently say that it definitely looks better live than it does on pictures. The pictures do not do it justice. But still, the controversy regarding the looks is still justified or understandable, the excessive use of the black plastic cladding on the lower front end and the rear certainly makes it a bit less attractive than it should be. Had it been body coloured then it would definitely look ten times better. It kind of looks like tamed off-ro...

THE HAVAL H6 HEV FULL REVIEW.

Image
  With the world in a hurry to shift to an era dominated by hybrids and all electric vehicles, manufacturers like Haval also had to jump in the trend. Hybrids as we know them are always meant to provide better fuel economy or higher power outputs or even both as the goal sometimes. The Hava H6 HEV here promises to give its buyers a better fuel consumption over the standard H6 and ultimately its rivals. Now that you know the what the H6 HEV is, let's talk about the specifications. The H6 makes use of a 1.5L 4-Cylinder Turbo petrol engine and a battery pack for a combined total power output of 179 kW and 530 Nm of torque. Those are substantially healthy figures if you ask me and if you are into quick accelerations then 8.5 seconds for the H6 HEV is not bad either considering that it's not even a high performance SUV. The claimed combined fuel consumption by Haval stand at 5.2L/100 km, that is quite impressive in this segment and handy in today's fluctuating fuel prices. The ...
