The Volkswagen Tiguan is now the brand’s bestselling vehicle not only in the U.S. and Canada, but globally. This proves that times and tastes have changed for the “people’s car” — the literal German translation of Volkswagen. 　　And the people have spoken: 77% of all American VW sales are Tiguans. Clearly, it’s a very important vehicle to the company. So,...

　　The Chevrolet Silverado EV Trail Boss is about to join the electric truck lineup. More than 3½ years after Chevy first announced its off-road-ready EV, it will finally deliver the new trim. It will give the electric pickup a lift, more capable tires, and the side-scooting four-wheel steer mode available on the RST. 　　Trail Boss Is More Than Just Looks...

　　The 2026 Lexus RZ is getting more range and more horsepower. A new F Sport model called the RZ 550e leads the way with 402 horsepower and simulated gearshifts. Battery improvements to the lower-output versions of the electric crossover will give them a useful increase in range if you can handle fewer ponies in your stable. 　　 　　(Photo/Lexus) Lexus Performance...

　　The idea of electric motorcycles is compelling, but efforts have come up short for me. The range has been horrific, and the bikes seemed not fully baked. After hearing from moto friends and journalists that Zero Motorcycle models fared well, I had high hopes for the DSR/X dual-sport machine. 　　The 2025 Zero Motorcycles DSR/X is an impressive-looking electric dual-sport/adventure motorcycle....

　　Last year, Ford did a complete redesign of the Ranger. It stretched both the wheelbase and track a couple of inches, beefed up the frame, and improved the suspension by setting the rear shocks outboard, all the while retaining its ability to tow up to 7,500 pounds. It also upgraded the interior with new seats, better materials, and improved storage...

　　Genesis properly refreshes its bestselling model for the 2026 model year, which is hitting dealer lots right now. The 2026 Genesis GV70 is a unique blend of luxury and sporty motoring in an SUV package that should appeal to a wide audience. 　　I took a trip to Houston to drive the top-spec — 3.5T Sport Prestige AWD — version of...

　　After 2 days of testing, on-road and off, with 21 brand-new crossovers, SUVs, and trucks, the Northwest Automotive Press Association (NWAPA) has crowned the 2025 NW Outdoor Activity Vehicle of the Year, as well as a number of category winners. 　　The annual event, known as Mudfest, now in its 31st year, offers journalists (NWAPA members) the opportunity for direct comparison...

　　When it comes to heavy-duty side-by-sides, there is a big difference between machines built for show and those built to work. The 2024 Can-Am Defender Max Limited earns its place in the workhorse category. It works hard, carries heavy loads, tows big trailers, and pushes through terrain that stops lesser machines. Its not flashy, and its certainly not delicate. 　　I...

　　Its rare to find a moto rack that accommodates bicycles, and almost unheard of to find a bike rack that accommodates motorbikes. Hauling both can be cumbersome, with bikes mounted on the car and the motorcycle towed on a trailer, meaning that often, people will choose between bringing one or the other on their adventures. 　　Enter the 1Up Moto Rack...

　　Honda just keeps going off-roading. The 2026 Honda CR-V TrailSport brings the companys rugged off-road package to the compact crossover for the first time. It comes with some extra cladding and other rugged details. It also adds all-terrain tires for the first time on a factory CR-V. 　　20% of Shoppers Pick TrailSport 　　 　　TrailSport is popular. Honda now sells TrailSport...

　　Never once have I said Im itching to go offroading in a Ford Expedition. But, that all changes now. I just drove the first-of-its-kind Expedition TREMOR on a muddy trail deep in the Indiana woods, and it far exceeded all expectations. 　　The 2025 Ford Expedition TREMOR is easily the most off-road-capable Expedition to ever roll out of a Ford factory....

　　Most people’s experience with the Polaris Slingshot comes secondhand. You see these attention-grabbing, three-wheeled spaceships on the road from time to time. But it’s rare to meet someone who’s actually driven one, let alone owned a Slingshot themselves. 　　After spending a month behind the wheel, one thing’s for sure: Some people love the Polaris Slingshot, some people absolutely hate it....
