Celebrity vehicle ownership can be a mixed bag, especially with high-end SUVs and trucks. On the one hand, some celebrities are trained drivers, both for movies and racing. Others, like San Antonio Spurs star Kawhi Leonard, are content to stay humble with their SUVs. Or, like Jay Leno’s Bronco, they go for well-kept classic style. …

Usually what Ola Källenius, CEO of Mercedes-Benz, says is the bottom line. It was generally thought that the Mercedes G-Class, known as the Geländewagen, wouldn’t be produced much farther into the future. Then Källenius tweeted this in November, “There will be a zero-emission EV version of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class. In the past there were discussions …

While the Jeep Wrangler’s off-road design does compromise somewhat on safety, it’s also what makes the SUV so popular. While the Gladiator pickup truck may provide more utility and on-road refinement, the Wrangler is still the one to get when it comes to rock-crawling and other technical kinds of off-roading. But is the Wrangler good …

The original Land Rover Defender may be an incredible off-roading SUV, but it also has its flaws. They’re slow, spartan, and not exactly safe. It was safety regulations, in fact, that stopped US sales back in 1997. And the small US-legal production date (’93-’97) makes the Defender rather expensive, especially compared to ones in Europe. …

When people in the US think of iconic off-road SUVs, they tend to picture the Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser, Willys Jeep, or Ford Bronco. Those ‘in-the-know’ may also include the Land Rover Defender or even Mitsubishi Montero. But if you asked someone overseas, especially in Australia, to make such a list, there’d be one more …

Although some mod it too far, what keeps the more extreme G-Wagens from being too groan-worthy is Mercedes’ dedication to keeping the SUV a luxury off-road tank. True, a Suzuki Jimny offers bare-bones buffoonery, but there’s something about a 6-wheeled pickup that supersedes logic. And even without extra wheels, the G-Class, like the Rolls-Royce Cullinan, …

In the past, if you chose to drive a new Jeep Wrangler you were choosing fun over frugality. Now that’s changing with the figures just announced for the Wrangler EcoDiesel’s official EPA economy numbers.

Although Tesla’s over-the-air updates have occasionally caused problems, they’ve also been a fundamental benefit for the EV manufacturer. Where updating something like a Ford F-150 can take months or years just to plan, Tesla can implement changes essentially overnight. And some of these changes can be dramatic. The already-quick Model 3 recently received a free …

The 2020 Ram 1500 has been getting rave reviews. It has been named Edmunds’ top-rated truck of 2020. It’s also been named to Car and Driver’s 10Best list.

When it comes to modern off-roading, the Suzuki Jimny and Mercedes G-Class are about as different as two vehicles can be. The Jimny, as it’s been from the beginning, is a compact, simplistic, and inexpensive off-roader. Think of a stripped-down, small Japanese Wrangler, and you’re not far off. The G-Class, on the other hand, is …

Full-size Jeep Cherokees are white-hot in the collector market right now. At least that’s what our friends at Hagerty Insurance tell us. Why do they know?
