2023 Genesis GV60, 2024 Chevrolet Blazer, BMW XM: top photos of the week
We test drove the Genesis GV60 and found a gorgeous design, advanced technology, and smart packaging. However, the chassis is not as well tuned as the suspension, and the price makes us question whether it is worth it compared to the Kia EV6 and Ioniq 5 in the same family.
Mercedes-Benz AMG presented the Vision AMG Concept. The concept foreshadows an electrified future for the performance sector and features a backrest design and a cockpit positioned behind an extended wheelbase.
A team of Ford engineers installed the Hoss 3.0 package on a 2022 Bronco Wildtruck and drove it on the Mexican 1000 without breaking any parts. The lessons learned may lead Ford's Performance Accessories division to increase protection for the rear shocks and front underbody.
We spotted the 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV undergoing testing on public roads. The prototype was camouflaged and lacked commercial lighting elements, but the shape was clearly defined by flowing rear fenders and a short rear window.
The 2023 BMW 3 Series debuted with a refreshed look, improved front and rear lighting, and new cabin technology. The updated luxury sedan upgraded its luxury game with a wall of standard screens on the dashboard, including a 12.3-inch digital meter cluster and a 14.9-inch touchscreen that was appropriated directly from the i4 electric hatchback.
Honda teased its electric SUV, the Prologue, which will use GM's Ultium platform but will have its own design and is expected to arrive in 2024. Honda is currently developing an EV with GM, while the Japanese brand plans an EV on its own platform by 2026.
The 2023 BMW XM was leaked on Instagram after it was spotted waiting for transport at an airport. The production version will feature the same massive twin kidney grilles as the XM concept, a long wheelbase with seating for five, and stacked quad exhaust tips.
