Michael SimariCar and Driver We have finally found the Subaru that dogs hate: the 2019 STI S209. Well, perhaps Beau, the miniature Australian shepherd, might not hate the track-oriented S209, but judging by the partly digested kibble he ralphed on the passenger’s seat, it’s fair to say he finds the ride nauseating.

Michael SimariCar and Driver 12/30/19 UPDATE: This review has been updated with test results. Spawned from Mercedes-Benz’s popular GLC-class compact luxury SUV lineup, the high-performance 2020 Mercedes-AMG GLC63 S coupe pegs the absurdity meter in nearly every metric.

12/24/19 UPDATE: This review has been updated with test results for a four-wheel-drive crew-cab Sierra HD 2500 Denali diesel model. That GMC expects more than half of its redesigned 2020 Sierra HD pickups to be sold as top-level crew-cab Denali models tells you something: Most GMC buyers prefer their heavy-duty trucks gussied up and loaded […] More

Remember when Kia’s lineup was a forgettable fleet of cheap transportation? If you can’t recall those rental-counter bottom-feeders, trust us, you’re not alone. The Korean automaker and its corporate counterpart, Hyundai, have been successfully shedding that stereotype for many years now. They’ve recently blossomed into two of the more interesting brands out there. Kia introduced […] More
The Lamborghini Aventador SVJ roadster is the hardcore, concentrated, and undiluted essence of a classic supercar. It’s powered by a massive, 759-hp 6.5-liter V-12 stuck in the middle of the car.
