First Drives

Porsche recently introduced a higher-spec version of the GT3, called the GT3 RS, as well as a new high-performance variation of the Cayman, called the GT4. Both of these GT cars are focused primarily on the racetrack, so we were invited to Road Atlanta to sample each one. Unfortunately it …

One week. Nearly 1,000 kilometres. A fuel economy average of 5.8 L/100 km. This is the summary of my time with the 2015 Honda Accord Hybrid, a car that, for roughly $6,000 more than a base gas-powered Accord, will burn about 2.5 litres less per 100 kilometres of combined city …

It’s a gorgeous fall day at Honda’s research and development centre in Tochigi, Japan, and I’ve got an appointment with the new sports car designed to show off Honda’s technical capabilities and bring the glory back to the Acura brand. In fact, the new NSX is Acura’s new flagship car …

Updating the Accord always seems to pose a problem for Honda. Since it’s the segment bestseller and has been loved by consumers for nine solid generations, the Japanese automaker has to be very careful about what they do it. On the one hand, too few updates can push buyers to …

I like to think of myself as my own person, with my own thoughts and opinions. But it's tough to argue with a good idea. Like Brad's about which is the best electric vehicle on the market: The Chevrolet Volt. Whereas other EVs struggle with the daunting issue of range …

In the thin air of Aspen, Colorado's peaks, which range in height from two and a half to a full four kilometres above sea level, I discovered that it can be advantageous to bring along your own oxygen. Even the slightest physical exertion during my time there driving the all-new …

Back in 2003, Infiniti literally created a new species of SUV by introducing the FX, a vehicle that blended the style and characteristics of a sport coupe with those of a utility vehicle. BMW joined in a few years ago with the X6, certainly the most notorious model of that …
