Following an incident in 2016 which involved a Tesla S driver who was killed after leaving his car unattended in its so-called “Autopilot” mode, Tesla is in the headlines for another crash. This accident that happened in Florida, US, ended up in the unfortunate loss of the driver’s life as the responders were not able to open the fancy doors of the Tesla Model S.
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.
Sprucing up their contender in the highly competitive mid-size SUV segment, GMC revealed the 2020 GMC Acadia. Though it is is just a mid-life facelift, the 2020 Acadia gets a new design, more features, a new engine, and a new gearbox.
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.
With the dreaded Takata issue making a comeback in the news, the number of vehicles recalled in the past month is sizeable.
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. So, to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of their trusty off-roader, Toyota debuts the 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser Heritage Edition, at least in the United States market.
GMC combines their latest truck design with brute power with the release of the 2020 GMC Sierra HD. The design of the Heavy Duty Sierra HD resembles the regular Sierra 1500 but with tougher elements. And it has 1234 Nm torque with a towing capacity of 13,600 kg.
GMC has signed up motocross athlete, Mohammed Al Balooshi, as its new Middle East brand ambassador.
The Range Rover SV Coupe, which was to be a limited-edition expensive version of the regular Range Rover, has been canceled before a single example has been built.
