The Subaru Outback Wilderness begs a question that deserves an answer: Do you need a four-wheel-drive SUV to have the capability to go off-roading?

BAY CITY, Michigan — Call it the Batmobile. The stealth fighter. The Black Widow.

Or, in long hand, the matte-black 2026 Toyota GR Supra MkV Final Edition. It’s the last hurrah for one of the most engaging, recognized, awarded sports cars in the U.S. market. My Final Edition tester was a paparazzi magnet on a weekend up north. In Charlevoix...Read more

For decades, the big kahunas -- literally -- in the full-size, luxury marque SUV segment have been models like the Cadillac Escalade and the Lincoln Navigator. The Infiniti QX80 is now every bit the kahuna they are -- and, in some ways, more so.

Also a bit less so -- in that the big Q stickers for thousands less to start than either the ...Read more

There are five midsize pickups available right now, but only one even offers a manual transmission -- something that was once usually standard in pickups. The Ford Ranger, Nissan Frontier, Chevy Colorado and its GMC sibling the Canyon are all automatic only.

Nissan's Rogue has sold very well -- notwithstanding that it's not especially roguish. It's a competent, attractively priced compact crossover -- and that's been enough.

As the number of midsize, three-row crossovers that still come with a V6 dwindles (one of the latest casualties is the Kia Telluride), the few that still do seem almost exotic.

It's a measure of the way things we used to take for granted have to a great extent been taken away.

For now, Honda hasn't taken away the V6 that's still the standard ...Read more

Everyone knows crossovers are practical. So are refrigerators. Neither are things most people get much excitement from. You buy them because you need them.

Even without the no-longer-available $7,500 federal tax credit, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 is affordable for an electric vehicle. And not just for an EV, either. This electric crossover's $35,000-to-start base price is competitive with the starting prices of same-size nonelectric crossovers such as the Toyota RAV4 ($31,900), Honda CR-V ($30,920), ...Read more

Lots of people decide to buy a nicer Chevy Tahoe -- in the form of the GMC Yukon. It's a similar thing as regards the GMC Terrain -- which is basically a nicer Chevy Equinox. You pay more for the GMC-badged version of the same basic thing, of course. But it's worth the extra to some.

What It Is

The Terrain is a compact crossover related to the...Read more
