2019 Cadillac ATS V Coupe Manual – Weapons Grade

The ATS sedan is dead, long live the ATS coupe.……..well not for long because the ATS and CTS will continue for the 2019 model before leaving us and that will be a sad day. No need to fret, however, Cadillac has plans and a new CT5 sedan is in the works

The 2026 Volkswagen Jetta SEL is a comfortable , efficient and surprisingly affordable German sedan — but it has a couple of head-scratching omissions. No rear air vents. And the passenger seat doesn’t get height adjustment. Two small things that make you wonder what Volkswagen was thinking. 😳 Would either of these bother you? #2026VWJetta #VWJetta #VolkswagenJetta #JettaSEL #CarShorts #CarReview #Volkswagen #Sedan #NewCars #TheDrivewire 1:00

2 BIG Problems With the 2026 VW Jetta SEL 😳

September 18th

The SUV invasion continues, but the 2026 Volkswagen Jetta is still here — stubbornly refusing to die. In this review, I take the range-topping 2026 Volkswagen Jetta SE for a drive to find out whether there’s still a reason to buy a compact sedan in a world obsessed with SUVs. The 2026 Jetta keeps its 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 158 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque, paired exclusively with an automatic transmission. Sadly, the six-speed manual is gone. On the plus side, VW claims up to 40 mpg on the highway. I also look at the Jetta’s interior, technology, comfort, trunk space, handling and driving dynamics — including why this supposedly sensible little sedan is surprisingly entertaining on a twisty road. But it isn't perfect. The top-of-the-line SE still doesn't have a passenger-seat height adjustment, and somehow VW has forgotten that rear passengers might occasionally enjoy having air-conditioning vents. So is the 2026 Volkswagen Jetta a forgotten bargain, or is the compact sedan simply fighting a losing battle against SUVs? In this review: • 2026 Volkswagen Jetta SE • 1.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder • 158 horsepower / 184 lb-ft • Up to 40 mpg highway • 14.1 cubic feet of trunk space • Jetta SE interior and technology • Driving impressions and handling • Jetta vs Honda Civic • What it's like driving a compact sedan in the SUV era • The things VW got right — and the things it really should have fixed If you enjoy honest, occasionally sarcastic car reviews, subscribe to @TheDrivewire for more new car reviews, road tests, and automotive nonsense. #VolkswagenJetta #Jetta #2026Jetta #Volkswagen #CarReview #JettaReview #Sedan #CompactSedan #NewCars #CarReviews #HondaCivic #VolkswagenReview #TheDrivewire #RoadTestReviews 11:27

2026 VW Jetta SEL Review - Are Compact Sedans Still Worth Buying?

September 17th

The 2026 Toyota bZ Woodland and Subaru Trailseeker are two electric SUVs with a very similar mission: take a practical electric wagon, raise it up, add some rugged styling, and send it off into the wilderness. But how different are they really? In this comparison, we put the **2026 Toyota bZ Woodland vs. Subaru Trailseeker** side by side to look at their styling, off-road capability, ground clearance, all-terrain tires, turning radius, towing, cargo space, interior features, pricing, and driving experience. The Toyota bZ Woodland gets standard 18-inch wheels with Dunlop Grandtrek all-terrain tires, 8.4 inches of ground clearance, and an available factory tow package. The Subaru Trailseeker counters with slightly more ground clearance, a tighter 36.7-foot turning circle, a lower starting price, and Subaru's X-MODE system. Then we take the bZ Woodland off-road to see whether those rugged looks actually mean anything. With the Toyota starting around $45,000 and the Subaru Trailseeker starting at $39,995, is the bZ Woodland worth the extra money? Or would you buy the cheaper Subaru and simply fit it with all-terrain tires? **Which one would you choose: Toyota bZ Woodland or Subaru Trailseeker?

2026 Toyota bZ Woodland vs Subaru Trailseeker: Which Electric SUV Is Better?

September 10th

The Subaru BRZ and Toyota GR86 may share the same basic platform, engine, and rear-wheel-drive layout, but they aren't identical twins. So what actually makes the Subaru BRZ different from the Toyota GR86? In this Short, I break down the key differences between these two lightweight sports cars and explain why their suspension tuning and driving characteristics make each one feel different behind the wheel. Which would you choose — BRZ or GR86?

Subaru BRZ vs Toyota GR86 - What's REALLY Different!

September 8th

@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
