@TheDrivewire The 2026 Subaru BRZ tS and Toyota GR86 look almost identical, use the same 2.4-liter naturally aspirated boxer engine, make the same 228 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque, and share the same rear-wheel-drive sports-car formula. So… they must be basically the same car, right? Not quite. In this review, we drive the 2026 Subaru BRZ tS and find out how its STI-tuned suspension, Brembo brakes, Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires, steering and chassis tuning compare with the Toyota GR86 Performance. The BRZ tS gets a stiffer front suspension and softer rear setup, while the GR86 takes a different approach that makes it more playful and willing to rotate. Both cars prove that you don't necessarily need massive horsepower to have fun behind the wheel. We also look at the interior, driving position, manual transmission, styling, performance, price and the biggest question of all: **Which one would we buy — the Subaru BRZ tS or Toyota GR86?** With 228 hp, rear-wheel drive, a six-speed manual and a relatively lightweight body, the BRZ and GR86 are a refreshing reminder that driving enjoyment isn't always about straight-line speed. **2026 Subaru BRZ tS** • 2.4-liter naturally aspirated boxer four-cylinder • 228 hp • 184 lb-ft of torque • Rear-wheel drive • Six-speed manual • STI-tuned suspension • Brembo brakes • Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires • Price: $38,160 **2026 Toyota GR86** • 2.4-liter naturally aspirated boxer four-cylinder • 228 hp • 184 lb-ft of torque • Rear-wheel drive • Performance Package available • Brembo brakes • Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires • Price: $37,175 So which one is better? The GR86 is the playful one. The BRZ tS is the more polished and focused car. And despite costing a little more, there's a good reason we'd choose the Subaru. Watch the full review to find out why.

The 2026 Toyota RAV4 Woodland Plug-in Hybrid isn't just about looking adventurous — it can actually handle some serious dirt. 🌲💨 Watch the RAV4 Woodland tackle loose, dusty terrain and show what its off-road-focused setup can do. With Trail and Snow modes, all-wheel drive, and up to 80% of the available power sent to the rear wheels, the RAV4 Woodland is surprisingly capable when the pavement disappears. Is this the most capable RAV4 ever? #ToyotaRAV4 #RAV4Woodland #RAV4WoodlandPHEV #ToyotaRAV4Woodland #OffRoad #OffRoadSUV #PHEV #Toyota #SUV #2026RAV4 #CarReview 1:51

2 COOL things about the 2026 Toyota RAV 4 Woodland

August 21st

The 2026 Toyota RAV4 Woodland Plug-in Hybrid looks like it was built to conquer the wilderness. Chunky tires, blacked-out trim, roof rails, tow hitch, and orange accents all suggest that this RAV4 spends its weekends crossing rivers and climbing mountains. But here's the funny thing: it probably spends most of its life outside Costco. Underneath all the outdoor adventure styling is something rather surprising — a 324-horsepower plug-in hybrid capable of hitting 60 mph in just 5.2 seconds, delivering nearly 50 miles of electric driving, and still returning around 35 mpg once the battery is depleted. And on the road, the Woodland may actually be the **best-driving RAV4 Toyota has ever built**. Its taller-sidewall tires and suspension make a huge difference on potholes, broken pavement, and rough back roads, while the steering and handling are surprisingly good. It's comfortable without becoming a rolling sofa. But is the Woodland really an off-roader, or is it mostly an excellent road-going SUV wearing hiking boots? In this review, we look at the exterior, interior, performance, ride and handling, cargo space, practicality, plug-in hybrid system, and whether the Woodland PHEV is worth its nearly $48,000 price tag. **2026 Toyota RAV4 Woodland PHEV** • 324 hp • 2.5-liter 4-cylinder plug-in hybrid • 0–60 mph: 5.2 seconds • Nearly 50 miles of electric range • Around 35 mpg with a depleted battery • Cargo space: 37.8 cu. ft. / 70.4 cu. ft. seats folded So, is this the ultimate RAV4 — or just a Costco cruiser dressed for an expedition?

2026 Toyota RAV4 Woodland PHEV Review: The Best RAV4 Ever?

August 21st

The gas-powered 2026 Dodge Charger R/T is back, but there's one rather enormous problem: the Hemi is gone. Instead, Dodge has fitted the new Charger R/T with its 3.0-liter twin-turbo Hurricane inline-six, producing 420 horsepower and 468 lb-ft of torque. With all-wheel drive, an 8-speed automatic transmission, and a claimed 0–60 mph time of 4.7 seconds, it's quick—but can the Sixpack really replace the Hemi that made the Charger famous? In this review, I take the 2026 Dodge Charger R/T for a real-world test drive to find out. We look at the new Charger's styling, size, weight, interior, technology, performance, handling, ride comfort, AWD system, Sport mode, pricing, and practicality—and, most importantly, whether this new gas-powered Charger still feels like a proper muscle car. The R/T tested here also has the Performance Package, adding performance suspension, Brembo brakes, launch control, line lock and 20-inch wheels. In this review: 2026 Dodge Charger R/T walkaround 3.0L Hurricane Sixpack engine 420 horsepower / 468 lb-ft 0–60 mph performance AWD and rear-wheel-drive Sport mode Performance Package Brembo brakes Handling and steering Ride comfort Interior and technology Rear-seat space Hatchback cargo space Pricing and options Sixpack vs. Hemi Final verdict The new Charger is big, heavy, and missing the V8 soundtrack, but it also has plenty of torque, surprisingly good throttle response, a comfortable ride, and more practicality than the old Charger. So is the 2026 Dodge Charger R/T a worthy replacement for the Hemi-powered Charger—or has Dodge taken the muscle out of the muscle car? Watch the full review to find out.

2026 Dodge Charger R/T Review | Is the Sixpack Better Than the Hemi?

How do you improve on something that already weighs nearly 10,000 pounds and produces 1,160 horsepower? GMC's answer is simple: add carbon fiber. The 2026 GMC Hummer EV Pickup is one of the most ridiculous vehicles you can buy today. This 1,160-horsepower electric truck weighs nearly 9,000 pounds and can accelerate from 0–60 mph in a claimed 2.8 seconds. In this review, I drive the 2026 Hummer EV Pickup and test its acceleration, handling, ride, technology, off-road capability, practicality, and sheer absurdity. This is the Carbon Fiber Edition, the quickest Hummer EV yet.
