Detroit Bureau Chief

Aaron Bragman

Detroit Bureau Chief Aaron Bragman has had over 25 years of experience in the auto industry as a journalist, analyst, purchasing agent and program manager. Bragman grew up around his father’s classic Triumph sports cars (which were all sold and gone when he turned 16, much to his frustration) and comes from a Detroit family where cars put food on tables as much as smiles on faces. Today, he’s a member of the Automotive Press Association and the Midwest Automotive Media Association. His pronouns are he/him, but his adjectives are fat/sassy.

Toyota has gone through the 2022 Tundra quite thoroughly, creating a new pickup aimed squarely at the most lucrative part of the truck market: personal-use buyers.
The updated 2022 Ford Expedition features a redone interior, new self-driving and safety tech, and two new variants.
The 2021 Honda Civic Type R Limited Edition, an entertaining, raucous and unhinged beast, has slightly better steering feel and is a bit louder inside than other versions of the CTR.
The 2022 Chevrolet Silverado gains a new interior, which is the interior it should’ve had when it was last redesigned for the 2019 model year.
Chevy has unveiled a revised Silverado 1500 that features a new, more premium interior, as well as a host of other smaller improvements and additions.
The refreshed 2022 Tiguan drives just as nicely as the last one, but the interior update brings finicky touch controls where they’re not wanted.
Toyota has turned the popular Corolla transportation appliance into the Corolla Cross, a roomier, more versatile, even slower transportation appliance — now with optional all-wheel drive.
If you for some reason need a super-quick, tech-laden, very expensive small crossover that sits high and doesn’t feel terribly sporty (aside from rapid acceleration), the 2021 Mercedes-AMG GLA45 is the one for you.
The 2022 Jetta sedan has been given a new lease on life with a mild styling refresh, rejiggering of its trim levels, new standard equipment and a massaged powertrain.
