The 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLE450 Coupe is one of the more indulgent and lovely mid-size luxury SUVs on the market, but be careful how you spec yours.
The top-of-the-line 2026 Toyota GR Supra MkV Final Edition starts at $69,745 (including destination), though it isn’t hugely different from the standard car.
With a smidge more power, better suspension and a comprehensive list of optional lightweighting kit, the new 2026 Aston Martin DBX S is near the top of the super-SUV heap.
The new 2026 Toyota RAV4 builds on the last-gen model and improves just about everything while adding a small squeeze of character that RAV4 owners are unaccustomed to.
A potent V-8, oodles of creature comforts upgraded suspension, and ferocious soundtrack make the 2025 Porsche Panamera GTS one heck of a grand tourer.
Compared to the prior generation, the biggest clear change for this “all-new” off-road-focused 2026 Forester Wilderness is a new all-terrain tire that’s slightly wider and taller.
For 2026, the Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid is the one to get in the Crosstrek lineup as long as it’s within budget and you don’t need the capability of the Wilderness trim.
The 2026 Corolla Cross is only mildly refreshed for the new model year, and it’s up to you if these changes are worth the modest price increase versus the 2025 model.
When it goes on sale, the Leaf S+ trim level will start at $31,485 (including destination), making it the most affordable electric vehicle on the American market.
The 2026 Prelude features good comfort, practicality and nice materials inside while differentiating itself from the rest of the Honda lineup with unique front and rear styling, a double-bubble roof and flared fenders.
