The 2024 Mercedes-Benz CLE 450 4MATIC Coupe is a compact luxury coupe with sleek styling and impressive performance from the mild-hybrid setup. But with a price tag starting at $62,600 and climbing to around $72,000 with additional options, the big question is: worth the investment?…

Cadillac’s performance division took the Lyriq electric SUV and turned it up to 11. New for 2026, the Cadillac Lyriq-V offers the fastest launch time of any production Caddy yet, zooming from 0-to-60 mph in just 3.3 seconds in what the company calls “Velocity Max” mode.…

It’s been decades since I’ve been behind the wheel of a Volkswagen Jetta. My last memory is test driving one at a VW dealership in the early 1990s when a 7-foot-tall, fair-haired salesman named Dirk sat on one of its doors to prove how well-built the car was.…

The 2025 Toyota Crown Nightshade adds new black accents and, combined with a Stormcloud Blue exterior color, creates a more dramatic look. With a hybrid powertrain, unique styling, a raised sedan design, and a host of features for the $48,000 price tag, is it the sedan you have been waiting for?…
