Kia just announced the debut of the K5 sedan, which is the successor to the now-defunct Optima nameplate. While the new mid-size sedan is technically a replacement for the Optima, it’s a little more than just a simple name change. The Kia K5 made its debut in South Korea at the end of 2019, however, …

Over the past decade, SUVs have risen in popularity, to the point that there aren’t really any new sedans to speak of.

The 2021 IS’ updates, relatively minor as they are, are welcome. Lexus’ compact sports sedan has fallen behind the competition in some ways. And not just to its main rival, the BMW 3-Series.

Claimed range is crucial for EVs, something that Tesla understands very well. It’s why, although the Porsche Taycan has the performance advantage, Tesla’s cars sell because of efficiency.

While necessary emissions regulations are starting to thin its lineup, AMG has always offered high-performance Mercedes models. Sedans have been especially well-represented in its history. Today, BMW offers several 600+ hp sedans, and Dodge has one with over 700 hp. And, as Doug Demuro recently explained, it’s thanks to the 2003 Mercedes E55 AMG. How …

BMW is a symbol of luxury and performance. Even the Base model features amenities that many non-luxury vehicles only have when they come fully loaded down with options.

A video has surfaced of a Mercedes meeting …

My co-workers and I got into a discussion today about Acura. To be more specific, we were discussing how the manufacturer seems to have lost its way a bit with its sedans. Sadly, I have to agree. There was a time when Acura was respected, and Kia was a joke. But today, Kia is in …

It’s getting tougher to ignore Kia’s products these days. The Telluride continues to sell as the cliché says, and the Optima beat out the Camry in U.S. News’ ranking.
