The latest new car reviews


Review - Lexus NX300h
Overall the NX
averaged about 28 mpg in country, rural driving where there is little stopping and brake regen.


2020 Honda Civic Si Review
This Civic Si is about driving fun, and I would have to give it a fun quotient on the 10 scale of about 12. Civics look quick standing still

2020 Honda CR-V Touring Reviewed
On the highway at 70 mph in a two-way run it averaged 35.3 mpg. Overall
