In our view the most impressive thing about the Land Rover Discovery was under the hood.
AboutThatCar.com: 2020 Lexus NX 300h
This review of the 2020 Lexus NX 300h started in Houston. We landed and picked up the luxury crossover at airport parking and headed here, no stops, no visiting friends, no nothing. We got on state highway 59 South headed for I-610 East that would take us to I-10 East.

I had the opportunity to attend the launch of Hyundai’s 2018 Sonata last summer in Southern California. I walked away very impressed with the midsize sedan. After a week with the car in urban America I found that my first reaction was correct.
AboutThatCar.com: 2017 Kia Forte SX 5 DR
The Kia Forte5 SX was a sharp looking five-door hatchback. It was a head turner; more than once did I notice people taking a second look at it.

The Lexus UX 200 may be the least recognized but most accomplished of the luxury brand’s crossovers and sport utilities.
AboutThatCar.com: 2017 Toyota Corolla iM
When Toyota folded its Scion brand it folded several of its cars into the Toyota fold. That’s a lot of folds but to put it simply there is now a 2017 Corolla iM.
AboutThatCar.com: 2017 Honda Civic Hatchback Sport Touring Sport
You usually don’t equate sportiness with a continuously variable transmission. It’s like trying to mix oil and water. The two just don’t go together smoothly.
AboutThatCar.com 2022 Volkswagen Taos
Volkswagen has shifted its product lineup upstream without a lot of fanfare. Just look at the Taos. It is the brand’s entry level crossover but there is nothing cut-rate about it. We had the front-wheel-drive version, and it had a wheelbase of 105.9 inches; it was 72.5 inches wide and 64.4 inches tall.
AboutThatCar.com: 2017 Genesis G90 RWD 5.0 Ultimate
We were in a parking lot and found ourselves answering a bevy of questions from a couple of guys. The first and most important was what kind of car we were driving. It was a Genesis G90.
AboutThatCar.com 2017 Lexus ES 350
The Lexus ES 350 is a sleeper sedan. It is the kind of car that is just outside of the young active demographic that you see targeted in automobile commercials of all stripes. Yet the ES is important, it has a following and it is aimed at a mature driver, not old, who is stable and doesn’t spend money unwisely.
AboutThatCar.com: 2018 Mazda3 4-Door
After test driving several Mazda hatchbacks and crossover models, a Mazda3 sedan finally showed up at the door. I found this four-door just as sporty and responsive as its hatchback counterpart.
AboutThatCar.com: 2017 Mazda6 Grand Touring
As soon as they dropped off the 2017 Mazda6, we were headed down Hwy 14 to connect with I-94 West and on to Chicago. Once we were clear of the expressway like traffic, we set the car’s adaptive cruise control on 78 mph and settled in for what turned out to be an uneventful drive.
AboutThatCar.com: 2017 Mitsubishi Lancer
When you think of Mitsubishi, it’s a question of is the glass half full or is it half empty. It just might be tilting toward the former now that Renault Nissan has purchased a controlling interest in the Japanese automaker. But until the combination is ready to execute the new business plan, Mitsubishi must solider on with its current products. And they’re not bad.
AboutThatCar.com: 2017 Kia Soul Turbo
The Kia Soul has survived in a niche where many have failed. It is a square box yet stylish, sassy and it had a little bit of sex appeal. What’s more, this year’s edition was beefed up with added power.
AboutThatCar.com: 2020 Hyundai Ioniq HEV
The Hyundai Ioniq is a car of the future. That’s because it comes in three electrified versions: hybrid, plug-in hybrid and all electric. We had the hybrid.

AboutThatCar.com 2018 Toyota Prius C
I got a 2018 Toyota Prius C on short notice to come here. The point is that I had to learn this car literally on the fly, or in this case on the road.
AboutThatCar.com: 2017 Kia Cadenza Limited
Kia’s Cadenza falls just short of being a full size sedan but it is an all premium car. For the 2017 model year the Cadenza is stronger, lighter and more ridged, so said the press material. This is the second generation of the premium sedan and Kia has quietly made some important improvements.
