Auto show preview

We took a closer look at the updated 2025 Volkswagen Taos during the 2024 Los Angeles Auto Show.

The 2026 GV70 family’s biggest design changes include new headlights and taillights, new grilles and a new power-actuated charge port door for the electric variant.

The refreshed 2025 Kia EV6 is minimally but meaningfully updated, gaining new looks and a larger available battery pack that should provide more range.

The Kia Sportage gets mild styling updates and some new equipment for the 2026 model year, including a new tablet display.

For 2025, Kia is bringing the EV6 more into the family with some styling cues designed to match other Kia models.

While it looks largely the same as the existing EV9, the GT packs an estimated 501 horsepower, which Kia says will fling the three-row electric SUV from 0-60 mph in 4.3 seconds.

Three years after the current generation debuted for 2023, a refresh for the Sportage lineup will arrive for the 2026 model year and go on sale in the second quarter of 2025.

The all-new 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9 is the latest (and largest) of the automaker’s electric offerings, bringing the Kia EV9’s three-row SUV layout and platform to its sister brand.

VW says the 2025 redesign of the Tiguan brings better fuel economy and performance, but more functions have been moved onto a touchscreen and it only has seating for five.

While its more formal, upright X3 sibling is all-new for the 2025 model year, the fastback BMW X4 soldiers on basically unchanged for another year.
