After 106 years in existence, Aston Martin decided to throw its hat into the ring by building its first SUV. Meet the 2021 Aston Martin DBX – a luxuriously appointed sport utility that’s dripping with all this brand is known for.
The 2022 Cadillac CT4-V and CT5-V Blackwings are something of a swan song. The last purely gasoline-powered V models with manual transmissions that the luxury automaker will likely produce, these new sport sedans are graced with bigger engines, more amenities, and higher-quality materials than their non-Blackwing brethren, along with upgraded aerodynamics, better handling, and a host of track-focused technology. Rear-wheel drive and Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires add to the allure of these top-tr
Compression-ignition has long struggled to find its footing in North America, but it was the fallout from the so-called “Dieselgate” emissions cheating scandal that saw several brands pull the plug altogether. However, General Motors (GM) is doubling down by offering diesel power in more of its light-duty trucks, including the 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe.

Offering an elevated ride height, all-wheel drive, seating for at least four, and horsepower numbers once reserved for only the most elite of supercars, here are our top picks (in no particular order) for crossovers and SUVs that don’t compromise style or performance for their practicality.
After driving the 2021 Corvette 3LT Convertible, I have my own thoughts on the mid-engine layout and dual-clutch automatic transmission (DCT), but we wanted to hear from the true-blue Corvette enthusiasts who have lived through it all. We reached out to the Corvette Club of Ontario, who were only too happy to assemble a group of owners to get a close look at the C8 – including a founding member.
There has been much hullabaloo amongst enthusiasts since Chevrolet announced the eighth-generation 2021 Corvette would live on without a manual transmission and with the engine behind the driver. With its predecessor widely believed to be the pinnacle of this nameplate’s lineage, how good could a totally reimagined version possibly be? As it turns out, very good indeed.
