Ford CEO, Jim Farley, made a rather controversial statement in an interview recently:. We have to start to get back in love with smaller vehicles. It's super important for our society and for EV adoption. We are just in love with these monster vehicles, and I love them too, but it's a major issue with weight.

Ford Made A Huge Mistake Killing Its Two Most Affordable Models

First introduced nearly three decades ago, the Honda CR-V has become a mainstay in Honda's lineup, largely due to its overall practicality, reliability, and robust performance. This trustworthiness has made it a favorite among drivers, from families to everyday commuters, even with strong competition like the Toyota RAV4, Ford Escape, and the more rugged Subaru Forester. With consistently high marks for consumer satisfaction and dependability, the CR-V is a strong contender for drivers who need something durable and versatile. Let's look at some of the best years for the Honda CR-V, as well as some of the models you'll want to avoid if you're looking for a pre-owned deal.

To the uninitiated, the Toyota Camry and Lexus ES are unlikely sparring partners due to their different classes. The 2025 Toyota Camry is an economical mid-sized sedan, while the Lexus ES is the premium brand's mid-sized entry-level sedan. Both are the bread and butter of their respective brand's sedan lineup, and both have made leaps and bounds in technology and style to get to where they are today.

Porsche production manager Albrecht Reimold tells Automobilewoche that the 718 lineup, comprised of the Boxster and Cayman, will end production in 2025. Porsche has already been forced to retire the 718 twins in Europe due to more stringent cybersecurity regulations (and the Macan along with it). More stringent emissions requirements across the pond would have done the pair in at some point as it is. The 718’s electric replacement is underway, and while Reimold didn’t share further details on the upcoming models, it’s hard to imagine Porsche will leave much of a gap between the end of 718 production and the next model’s introduction.

Bugatti May Have a New Grand Tourer in the Works Inspired by Its Most Valuable Car Ever

Remember a time when you could get a manual gearbox in an all-wheel drive car and send it down a dusty trail for maximum fun? Those were the good days, and when rally racing and hot hatches hit their peak in the 1980s and 1990s, nothing made you feel more like a rally driver than the combination of AWD and a manual gearbox. But times have changed, the manual has fallen out of favor, and hot hatches, well, while there were once nearly a dozen or more to choose from, we're now down to just three or four genuine contenders. But of those that still remain, only one gives you that combination of a shift-it-yourself gearbox and drive to all four corners: the Toyota GR Corolla.
