The Honda Prologue is all-new for the 2024 model year. Riding on a similar skateboard-type BEV3 platform developed by General Motors, you can call the Prologue a precursor to Honda’s first in-house developed electric car. The 2024 Prologue is about eight inches longer and five inches wider than its popular CR-V stablemate, offering more room for five adults and cargo.

The sixth-gen 4Runner has officially arrived after 15 years, and Toyota has done its homework to tickle the hearts and minds of fans who have been clamoring for a modern-day update to the automaker’s much-loved family SUV. It starts with the TNGA-F platform shared with the Tacoma, Land Cruiser, Tundra, and Sequoia.

The 2025 Subaru WRX Sportwagon is coming to Mexico and adding yet another slice of forbidden fruit to the auto market just south of us, which car enthusiasts in the U.S., unfortunately, have no access to. The Mexican market is so tantalizingly close, and, yet, so far away—especially for car lovers who live along the southern border and thus get to see Mexican cars on a regular basis, like yours truly. For the first time in a long time, if not ever, a manual WRX wagon will be available this close to the U.S. rather than in its usual markets of Australia and Japan.
At last year's Tokyo Auto Show, Honda surprised everyone by revealing the Honda Prelude Concept. The company has already confirmed it'll eventually produce the two-door hybrid coupe, and a new report from Best Car Web provides an insight into the car's alleged powertrain details, dimensions, and Japanese price.
One of the key aspects where the previous versions of the Maruti Swift was falling behind is safety. The outgoing third-gen model just got a single star when it was tested by Global NCAP back in 2022. However, Maruti will be improving the safety quotient of the new fourth-gen Swift, set for launch on May 9, by offering six airbags as standard across the variant lineup.
Ahead of its much-anticipated launch in India on 9 May, the new Maruti Swift has been leaked in its entirety. This is the fourth-generation Swift and as expected it’s the same as what we have been seeing in Japan and now Europe and that should come as no surprise as the Swift is the Japanese automaker’s most successful global model.
