Kia Unveils Sedona-replacing 2022 Carnival

They went with a "CUV with sliding doors" look that the Flex was supposed to have. It does look good. The Pacifica's "minivan with no apologies" look is nice too. It will be interesting how this plays out. -
Porsche's synthetic fuel as clean as EVs.

I was thinking the same thing. I can't believe them at face value after the diesel scandal. -
Oh, wow! That's very unique. I like that!

I thought a more conventional truck like the Dakota would sell in larger numbers than the Gladiator, and sell to contractors. I see a great missed opportunity here.

Also, Pontiac is also a place (river) and people. And that division had a model called Parisienne (a lifestyle and people). Ferrari has Italia as well although the company is headquartered in the country in question, maybe all the Italians don't want the name on that car. But than again, the offense probably the American people almost exterminated the Cherokee people and I think about what if the Germans started using Hebrew terms on VW cars, so maybe their argument is correct. This could be a sticky issue. -

I can understand changing the football team name as the previous name was an insult and offensive. (Redskin was the term for the bounty paid for killing people like animals and bringing the skins back as proof.) This is like naming the SUV the Jeep Canada. (Actually, I like that name now that I think of it.) -

General Motors Q4 2020 earnings release

Agree about the SUV style. I liked the previous generation better with the character line that went from front to back. It accented the vehicle's length and de emphasized the height, taking the visual bulk out of them and making them look more athletic. -
I said the same thing about the Pathfinder a few weeks ago on this forum and I agree, the same line works here too. If it wasn't for the strange front, I'd forget it seconds after looking away. This one is Mitsubishi's version of the Nissan Rogue. I do like the interior though, that's pretty nice, but I'm so sick of crossovers too.

Ford Territory Compact Crossover Headed To Mexico

The roof of that thing reminds me of an old guy still trying to wear an ill fitting toupee he bought thirty years ago. -

No, he was promoted to oversee the Motor trend group, which included America's Top Gear show and other magazines under the Motor trend umbrella. Mark Rechtin is the editor of the Motor Trend magazine from Jan. 2020 to now. It seemed like they lightened up on Ford right after this. https://www.linkedin.com/in/edwardloh/ -

I was thinking the same thing. But also, Motor Trend has had a new exec editor in the last year or so. Edward Loh was the editor when Ford was the "automotive apocalypse", and the mood lightened when he moved on. Mr. Loh also seemed not to care too much for Honda either.
